Chapter 10: Allegiance

In the evening, the sky darkened red as the white clouds shone in the afterglow, as if they had known of the impending battle, and had warned the Sears area in advance.

At this time, the huge white rose relief at the entrance of the castle that Luther touched was also printed with a faint red, and it looked very harmonious with the guards on both sides standing upright.

"Young Master, although I don't know how you are going to fool those civilians, but out of the dignity of the nobles, I suggest that you should really go up and walk around at that time, and I and a few knights will protect you. ”

The old butler stood behind Luther and did not have any scruples because of the presence of the guards, because he was really worried that the young master was just a hot impulse in his head, and if he really retreated at that time, it would be better to tell the soldiers to come now.

At this time, the two guards looked at the Earl at the same time, they were just excited, is it all a scam?

"Old Sas, do you think I'm joking, young master, or do you think I said those things on impulse?"

Luther touched the rough and somewhat weathered grainy relief, and slowly asked the butler Sas.

"Is it ......?"

The butler looked at Luther's back in disbelief, if he didn't know that the young master's tone would slow down and become calm as long as he was serious, he would have thought that the young master was crazy.

Not to mention the various rewards and promises to those civilians afterwards, because this is a territory that belongs to Sears, even if it is a little unruly, it is harmless, but what does the young master think? At the age of 16, he actually thought of leading the troops into battle, which was like sticking his neck over and letting the other party make a move.

"Sas, although I usually train less, but some things in the bloodline can't be changed, and with you, I'll be fine, right?" Luther then turned around and stretched out his palm to the front and shook it: "I was originally going to slowly stay up for ten or twenty years to recover some of the territory belonging to the Sears family, but I didn't expect the other party to find it so soon."

I remember that part of the eastern side of the Minahill family belonged to the Sears family, right?"

"Young Master, although he looks handsome like this, a brave and unscrupulous decision-maker is destined to lead the family to destruction. ”

After hearing Luther's words, the housekeeper replied expressionlessly, at this time, the young master is still thinking about the other party's territory, is he really looking at the wrong person?

"Hehe, you must think that the young master is too arrogant, right, I think so too.

Those words just now will only be considered after the plan is successful, don't worry about me being confused. ”

After saying that, Luther paused as soon as he was about to raise his legs into the castle, and then he looked at the two guards next to him and said, "The Sears family is not in good shape, do you regret it?"

"I would like to pledge my allegiance to the Earl. ”

"That's right, I wish to be loyal to Lord Earl. ”

Luther smiled and patted them on the shoulders before walking into the castle, only the voice came slowly.

"If you want to be my knight, it's up to you to behave. ”

Half an hour later, Luther summoned the knight commander and some knights in the castle hall, these people were basically knights canonized by his cheap father, and the earlier ones were canonized by his grandfather, so these people were very different in age.

Luther knew that the so-called loyalty of these people was only to the object of allegiance or the Sears family, so he had to make these people loyal to him at the moment, and the difference was still very large.

"I don't speak of those vain, I need your allegiance now, remember that it is me, Count Luther Sears Terdra.

You may not know how to react to this 16-year-old earl who can suddenly appear, but I tell you I'm not joking.

I don't know what I can do to make you allegiance, but you don't have a choice now, allegiance or death?

After this time, you will decide whether to stay or not, that is, this allegiance is only temporary.

I know your loyalty to the Sears family, but the choice is yours. ”

Originally, Luther was going to make them loyal with a very tough attitude, but the butler had said that some of them had a lot of credit to the Sears family for their ancestors, so in the end Luther turned allegiance into a temporary one.

This may have been an unheard of move, and not only did the knights not expect the Earl to say such a thing, but the old butler was also shocked.

But Luther did think about it, the twisted melon was not sweet, and he needed a knight who was truly loyal to him, not the former Sears family, which was the first step for him to gather his forces.

Seeing that everyone didn't react for a long time, Luther frowned slightly and showed some impatience and asked, "What's the matter?"

The knight commander Fei Nan looked at the young master in front of him with some surprise, it was hard to imagine that he was the young master who was indifferent to everything before.

"Lord Earl, I think your worries are a little unnecessary, whether it is loyal to the Sears family or you, we will not slack off, and we will fight until the last moment.

Still, I will swear my allegiance to you. ”

The other party said that he was about to kneel on one knee, and Luther grabbed the big man who was a head taller than himself and smiled: "No, it's temporary."

Actually, what you did just now really made me quite happy, it turns out that the knight commander of the Sears family still has foresight.

If you choose to be loyal to me after the war, I would welcome you. ”

All the knights unanimously expressed their allegiance, but whether it was temporary or always, this is not Luther's concern, when the time comes, it should belong to him, and he will also be sent away for so many years of face in the face of so many years, even if he is not sent away, it is estimated that he will not enter the core of the Sears family.

After that, Luther arranged the tasks of the knights, and the knight commander was arranged by him to train the militia, although I don't know how effective it can be in less than a month, but it is better than no training.

"Young Master, although each generation of lords will subdue the knights left over from the previous generation, you are still in a hurry. ”

Wait for the knights to leave before the butler speaks.

"I don't have time, and I want to take them slowly, but this war has a big impact.

I've taken a look at the form of empire in recent years, and at the moment our Sears family will become a fuse if we don't get it right, and we won't even have a bone left to be swallowed, so in order to dispel those people's minds, we must win this time.

Do you know what I'm most worried about right now? It's the Minerhils teaming up with those guys who also have ambitions for the Sears family. ”

"Young Master, you are too worried, it is impossible for the tiger and the wolf to cooperate, although their goals are the same, but the tiger of Count Minethil will not let others touch the meat in his mouth. ”

After hearing the butler's words, Luther shook his head, pointed his finger on the table, and said, "What if it is an order from a superior commander?

Unlike the earliest families such as Sears, many of the minor nobles now are loyal to the big nobles, and only the big nobles can be directly loyal to the king, so Luther's concern is indeed not unreasonable.
