Chapter Forty-Eight: Cavalry Encounters
"No, it can't be! How could Viscount Musen die in battle!" Upton retorted, his eyes full of disbelief.
However, looking at Allen, who had a serious face, and the indifferent warriors around him, Upton sat down in a dejected manner. If it weren't for Viscount Musen's accident, the Blue Desolate Territory would not have dared to attack the White Stone Collar! Upton thought to himself.
The performance of Grover next to him was also almost the same, after hearing that Viscount Bernard was killed in battle and Musen City was destroyed, his somewhat black face was pale and bloodless.
Alan looked at the families behind him and waved for the warriors to take them all away.
"Baron Qinghuang, what the hell are you going to do!" Seeing his wife and son being taken away, Upton said uncontrollably.
"Relax, Mr. Upton!"
"As long as you release the baron of the White Stone Collar and surrender to the Baron of the Green Wilderness, from today the White Stone Collar will be under the jurisdiction of the Green Wilderness Territory, I will let you Babi family go!" Allen said.
"Don't you think, this can't be!" upton flatly refused.
"Actually, you should know that I am determined to win by the White Rock Leader. If you don't agree, I will slaughter your Babi family, and you can also get the White Stone Collar, but I am naturally good and don't want to kill more!" Alan said hypocritically.
And Bard looked at the benevolent Baron with a look of admiration, very admirable!
"You ......" After hearing Allen's words, Upton's eyes widened in anger, and he wanted to jump up and kill the guy in front of him.
Grover was also furious, but he didn't dare to act rashly.
"I'll give you three minutes to think about it, and in three minutes I'll choose one of your Babi family to have the surgery, and you don't want your relatives to be killed by yourself!" Allen looked at the two of them with a sinister smile like a perverted murderer at this time.
As the minutes passed, Upton and Grover struggled inwardly, with relatives on one side and the title inherited by the Babi family for generations, it was indeed difficult to choose how to choose.
"Okay! Three minutes are up, and it looks like you two have a choice!"
Ellen then motioned to Barton, who left the hall.
"Ahh......h
In less than a moment, there were bursts of screams outside the hall.
"It's Korla!" Upton shuddered as it was his youngest son who screamed.
"You devil!"
"Okay, I promise you, let Korla go, let him go!" Upton laughed miserably.
"Alright, stop!" As Alan gave an order, the screams outside the hall gradually subsided.
"Upton, you can't say yes!" Grover said anxiously.
"Shut up!" upton scolded.
"What, Mr. Grover wants to hear the screams of his relatives too?"
"I think your daughter seems to be out there too, Barton!"
"No, Baron Wilderness, I didn't mean that!" Grover hurriedly denied it, and said no more, acquiescing to Upton's idea.
"Alright, you can rest in the castle with your family first, and then you need the cooperation of the two of you!" Alan smiled with satisfaction.
For Upton's youngest son, Alan just asked Barton to whip him a few times at will, which did not hurt much, let alone endanger his life, and said that Alan just wanted to force the two to comply.
Of course, if the two really don't agree in the end, then don't blame Allen for using ruthless methods.
The reason why so many means were spent, wanting to make the two Upton obey, instead of directly slaughtering the Babi family, was because of Allen's calculations.
Compared to a dead Babi family, a living Babi family is still very symbolic, and a kind-hearted new baron is more acceptable to the people of the White Stone Collar than a brutal new baron.
In the future, when the other baronies are attacked again, after the castle is destroyed, there will be no incident of sworn resistance, after all, isn't the Babi family also alive? As long as they surrender, there is still a way to live.
However, the living Baron family still has a lot of influence over the territory, so Eren decided to bring the Babi family back to the Blue Wilderness Territory after using it, rather than letting it stay in the White Stone Territory, just in case.
Later, under the guidance of Allen, the White Stone Collar soon knew about the change of the territory to a new baron, and with the help of Upton and Grover, Alan quickly mastered the White Stone Collar.
......
At this time, in the Iron and Stone Territory, Antonio took two hundred cavalry warriors to the Wheat Grass Village, and Andy had arranged for the spies of the Shadow Department to lead the way in front of the location of Baron Curitt's horses in the Wheat Grass Village.
It didn't go far, and after walking through a bush, Antonio finally saw his target.
I saw a green meadow in front of me, and I couldn't see the end at a glance, and there were patches of horses scattered on the meadow, all of them tall and handsome, full of excellent war horses.
For these horses grazing in the grass, it is not so easy to catch, but fortunately, Antonio caught a few grooms who specially raised horses for Baron Curit here, so that the grooms caught the leader of the herd, that is, the head horse, as long as he caught the head horse, it was much easier to take this group of horses.
Antonio was watching the grooms look for an opportunity to catch their head horses in the herd, when the warriors patrolling outside came to report.
"My lord, there is a strange cavalry in the bushes!"
"What? Assemble! Draw your sword!"
With Antonio's order, two hundred cavalry warriors unsheathed their swords and assembled in Antonio's rear.
"Kant, Kim, you two lead a hundred cavalry to lurk on the right side of the bushes, once you find them fleeing, directly surround and kill, don't let one go!"
"Yes!" said Kant and Kim.
This time Antonio took a squad of knights, two of whom were Kant, and Kim.
Antonio was very wary of the cavalry that appeared in the bushes for no reason, after all, it was impossible for Ironstone Fort to have such a large force of cavalry.
If it wasn't from Ironstone Castle, it could only come from other territories, and in addition to the Qinghuang Territory close to Ironstone, only Muteng Leader and Baron Jean, who occupied Musen City, were most likely to send cavalry here.
After Jason led the warriors to break through the defenseless Ironstone Castle, he searched for it, and the harvest greatly exceeded Jason's expectations, the wealth of the Ironstone Domain was really amazing, there were more than 20,000 golden dragons alone, and Jason even looted more than 160 fire elemental crystals in the secret room of the Ironstone Castle.
Jason couldn't help but sigh, Iron Collar has iron ore is indeed very profitable, even compared to Lord Baron's magical plants, it is not too much.
After looting the entire Ironstone Castle, Jason suddenly remembered that the Ironstone Collar still had a huge fortune, that is, a group of war horses in Wheat Grass Village......
