Bruce looked up in the direction of the hill and found that Lord Zack's banner had disappeared, he frowned and looked around, wondering if the other party was going down the mountain to attack, but after a while, there was no trace of any army, and at this time, Bruce understood.

"Ken, Ken." Bruce shouted Sir Ken's name loudly, and when he heard Bruce's call, the knight quickly gave up and continued the attack, and rode to Bruce's side.

"Your Excellency, what do you command?" Ken asked, puzzled.

"Immediately get everyone to shout and shout." Bruce instructed Ken.

"Shouting? What to shout? Ken asked, confused.

"Look, Lord Zach has fled, let everyone cheer about it." Bruce pointed in the direction of the hill, and Ken understood that they had won the battle.

When the sound of Lord Zach fleeing came from the battlefield, the Amar mercenaries completely collapsed, and the battle without their employer was completely meaningless, and when the setting sun shone on the battlefield, Bruce rode on his horse and watched everything here.

"I'm not strong enough." Bruce looked at the corpse of the Glinton soldier who had been dragged out of the pile of corpses by his companions, feeling a little frustrated.

"Your Excellency, this battle is well fought." Stukov walked up to Bruce, holding a leather bag with some ale in it, and there was nothing more refreshing than drinking after the battle, but his legs were a little inconvenient, so he limped.

"It's a good fight, so many people have died, and it's called a good fight." Bruce's face turned red, and he angrily pointed to the pile of corpses.

"Huh?" Stukov looked inexplicably, he could not immediately Bruce feel from a time of peace.

"I'm sorry, I just think there are a lot of my own people who died this time, if I can be a little stronger, maybe they won't die." Bruce took a deep breath, feeling that he had not controlled his emotions well, and apologized to Stukov.

"Thanks to Lord Baron, there are no immortals in war, and this time our losses are very small." Stukov shrugged his shoulders, taking it as an emotional reaction to Bruce's slight frustration, and comforted Bruce.

"No, you don't understand what I mean, if you can bring the enemy to your knees without the means of war, that's what I'm going to do in the future." Bruce clenched the reins of his horse as if swearing to himself.

"Naive." Stukov smiled wryly, dismissing it for a childish look on the part of Bruce.

"Lord Baron, we have sent light cavalry to capture Lord Zack's house and land." At this time, Edward and Eve approached and reported to Bruce.

"So fast?" Bruce was a little surprised, he sent light cavalry just to reconnoitre, knowing that the lord's house can be said to be the last fortress to protect the territory, but he didn't expect Edward and Eve to report that they had conquered it.

"There was no one in the lord's house, everyone fled." Eve said to Bruce with her waist crossed.

"Escaped?" Bruce thought it was strange, Lord Zack's house was fine even if it was held for a few days, could he give up his territory so easily?

Although he felt very strange, Bruce immediately ordered a team of soldiers to occupy the lord's house, occupied Lord Zack's land, and found some supplies in the cellar of the lord's house, which Bruce also unceremoniously confiscated and took it to himself.

On the bumpy and rugged path, a procession was heading towards the castle of the Duke of Bemessi, led by the fleeing Lord Zack, who did not seem to be discouraged by the loss of his territory, but looked around with great interest, and behind him the carriage contained several suitcases, which contained his noble clothes and daily utensils, and the archers carefully protected the carriage.

"Lord Zack, this time the Inquisitor is not trivial, you must be careful." The Kate archer, with his kingfisher feather hat and a beard, addressed Lord Zack.

"Hmph, I know, and I don't know who called these mad dogs." Lord Zack pursed his lips and said disapprovingly.

"Your Excellency, we will take care of the security of your mansion, and now is your chance to show favor to the Duke." Kate Archer said to Lord Zack.

"It's not the time yet, before things get bigger." A smile appeared on the corner of Lord Zack's mouth, he liked to see Duke Bemessi in a hurry, maybe this was a kind of revenge for the duke's fall back then!

"I hope the Duke will not misunderstand that the Inquisitor was instructed by Madame, and you must first dispel this misunderstanding of the Duke." Kate Archer said to Lord Zack.

"Hmph." But Lord Zack snorted coldly, and his disapproving attitude made Kate Archer frown.

Bruce can see from Lord Zack's behavior of abandoning the territory and fleeing that the other party has not taken this battle to heart at all, perhaps for Lord Zack, this is just a child's game, which makes Bruce very unhappy.

"Thank you, Lord Baron, if it weren't for you, we would have met with misfortune." Ignas hosted a banquet for Bruce and the others in the manor, and he sincerely toasted Bruce and thanked him.

"That's what I promised, and I'll do it." Bruce raised his glass, and he said that he had promised to protect Ignas, and he would do it.

"Yes." Ignas looked at his wife, and the two exchanged glances, at which point Ignaus suddenly put down the glass in his hand and came to Bruce, who knelt down on one knee.

"What are you doing here, Lord Ignath?" Bruce was taken aback, wondering what the hell the manor owner was trying to do?

"Lord Baron, we have offended Lord Zack, even if he escapes from his territory, the power of the Duke's family will not let us go easily, so I want to lead my family to merge into your land, and my family and I are willing to serve you for generations, only ask for your protection." Ignas bowed his head sincerely and swore to Bruce.

"Are you going to give up your independence?" Bruce was a little surprised, the lord of Ignas Manor was an independent nobleman, and this kind of aristocracy was generally unwilling to lose his free status, but now he was willing to give up everything and become his vassal, which was really incredible.

"Yes, Lord Baron, although we are a small family, we have also sensed the harbingers of an impending storm, so we have been looking for a reliable harbor, and you, a true master, I am willing to serve you wholeheartedly." Ignas put his hand to his chest and swore to Bruce.

"But I'm just a young aristocrat." Bruce hesitated, the loyalty of the Glynton nobles was forced by him by force, but Ignath was the first nobleman to voluntarily become his vassal, which surprised Bruce a little.

"You abide by your oath and glory, support the weak, and are not afraid of power, which is exactly what a small family like ours relies on, and I believe that your vision will not be wrong." Ignas looked up and looked at Bruce with blazing eyes.

"Oh oh oh, long live Lord Baron." Ignath's words caused everyone to stand up, and they cheered and raised their glasses, and Bruce gladly accepted Ignaus's oath of allegiance.
