James also noticed the pursuers behind him, and he desperately kicked the mount with the spur in his heel, and the spur kicked the horse in the abdomen bloody, and the horse desperately spread its hooves and ran under the pain.

"He's going to run away." Bruce clutched the reins in both hands, and he said to Eve behind him with some anxiety.

"He can't run." Eve jumped onto the horse, drew her bow like a Valkyrie, and Bruce held her legs from behind with a free hand.

It's not easy to aim at a target on the back of a bumpy horse, but Bruce believes that if anyone in this world can do it, it's Eve.

"Whoosh~~." Eve stared intently at James's figure farther and farther away, she did not panic because of this, but aimed more calmly with her heart, and when she felt her mind grasp the target, she let go of her fingers, and the arrow flew out like lightning.

"Ah~~." James, who was fleeing on horseback, felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, and he fell off his horse with a scream.

"Lord Baron." The squire reined in his mount, and he was surprised to see James fall from his horse after being shot, but fortunately the ground was soft dirt and grass, James's mount neighed and continued to run, while the Glinton soldiers were rushing with their weapons raised, and he had to turn his horse and flee in the direction of the manor.

Bruce and Eve rode to James's side, and James was no longer as proud as he used to be, he was thrown to the ground, the arrow on his shoulder was broken, and the wounds on his body made him lie on the ground and wail.

"Ugh." Bruce rode on horseback and looked at James condescendingly, he gasped, sweat had already soaked the inner lining, looking at James who was wailing like a dead dog on the ground, Bruce's heart was refreshed.

"Are you going to kill him?" Eve drew another arrow and placed it on the bow to aim at James' head.

"No, I'll do it myself." Bruce held Eve's bow, and he stared at James on the ground, he was not the original Bruce, James on the ground was just a stranger to him, and because of James's invasion, many Glinton soldiers died, which Bruce could not forgive.

Bruce jumped off his horse, he strode towards James on the ground, and pulled out a sharp dagger from his waist, this is the knife that Bruce usually uses to cut meat, he intends to use the dagger in his hand to cut James's throat, and then throw away the cleaver with James's dirty blood.

"No, no, help, help~." Seeing Bruce with a dagger walking towards him, James desperately crawled into the distance, but his crawling speed could only be measured in centimeters, and he was soon trampled on his back by Bruce.

"You messed with the wrong person, you know?" Bruce stomped on James's back, ignoring his wails, pulling out the fine high-topped helmet from James' head, grabbing James by the hair, forcing him to show his throat.

"Ahem, spare your life, spare your life, be merciful, please, my brother." James swallowed his saliva, his throat exposed under the dagger, and James, who had never begged for mercy, felt the fragility of life, and he muttered to his brother who had been spitting and belittling for mercy.

"Why aren't you merciful to those you killed?" Bruce ignored James' pleas for mercy, raised his dagger in the air and yelled at James, and then swung his hand downward.

"Stop." But at this time, Bruce's hand was grabbed by someone, and the angry Bruce turned around and saw that it was Stukov.

"Loosen up, I'm going to slaughter this bastard." Bruce glared at Stukov and ordered him to let go of his hand so he could kill James.

"No, you can't be a kin-lover." Stukov frowned, shook his head firmly, and then punched Bruce in the face, and the exhaustion of a long day of fighting had already exhausted Bruce's physical strength, and Stukov's punch knocked Bruce unconscious.

As Bruce faints, he hears Stukov ask the others to pick James up and put him in Grinton, and then Bruce doesn't know anything as soon as his eyes go dark.

The people in Locke Manor panicked when they learned that the Baron had been captured, and the only one who remained awake was Sir Wayne, who did not expect that the infighting between the two brothers would eventually turn into such a situation, if Bruce killed James, then he would become a notorious murderer and monarch killer, which would become a pretext for other families to do something against the Locke family.

"Lord Duke, now only you can save the Locke family." Sir Wayne thought about it carefully, made up his mind, and then went to the Duke of Bemessy and asked him for help.

"Although James is my vassal, but after all, this is an internal matter of the Locke family, and the vassals of the vassals are not my vassals, and if I interfere, I am afraid that it will break the rules among the nobles." Duke Bemessi had already had the idea of going at this time, he didn't expect James to lead such a superior force, and he was beaten to the ground by his younger brother, which shows that the ability of such a vassal is really worrying, and he actually wants to discuss a big plan with him.

"Lord Duke, I don't mean to let you send troops to help, but I want you to mediate for the intermediary, of course, the most urgent thing now is to ask you to send an envoy to ask Bruce not to hurt the Baron with your supreme prestige, and Locke Manor will prepare enough ransom to redeem Lord Baron." Sir Wayne hurriedly said to the duke.

"Mediation in my name?" Duke Bemessi listened thoughtfully, if he only sent an envoy to mediate, then he would have no loss, and mediating the contradictions between the vassals was also what the superior should do.

"If we can successfully save the Baron, we will pay a hundred barrels of ale, twenty jugs of olive oil, and five hundred silver coins as a token of gratitude." Seeing that Duke Bemessey was loose, Sir Wayne hurriedly stepped up and said.

"Okay, that's it." Upon hearing that Locke Manor was willing to pay a large amount of supplies and money to himself in order to save James, Duke of Bemessi's face showed a smile, and he agreed to come down.

Soon a messenger carrying the banner of the Duke of Bemessi, under the protection of two dukes' personal guards, galloped in the direction of Glinton, who had to arrive before James was executed.

"Ugh." Bruce opened his eyes and saw the roof of his lord's house, and he shook his head and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have caught James, and then he was knocked unconscious by Stukov.

"Your lord, you're awake." Anne, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the movement in the bedroom, and hurriedly walked over to see Bruce sitting up, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Give me water." Bruce only felt that his mouth was dry, so he said to Anne.

"Water, oh, coming soon." Anne lifted the hem of her skirt, filled Bruce's cup with water, and handed it to Bruce.

"Goo, goo." Bruce raised his head and poured water down his throat, the sweet water moistened him, and made Bruce completely sober, he quickly asked Anne, "What time is it?" ”

"It's noon the next day, and you have been asleep all day, and it seems that you are too tired." Anne said to Bruce with a smile.

"Damn Stukov, he punched me hard." Bruce touched his chin, the place where he was beaten by Stukov still hurt, and he couldn't help but say angrily.

"What, Lord Stukov hit you?" Little Anne said in surprise that when Bruce was carried back, she thought Bruce was injured, but fortunately he just fainted.

"What about them, what about the others?" Bruce hurriedly jumped out of bed, and he strode out of the lord's house, and found that the front of the house was very lively.

"Your lord, you're awake."

"My lord, we have won."

"We won the crumbs."

The Glintons were busy clearing up the loot and prisoners, and each of them greeted Bruce warmly as they passed in front of the lord's house.

"Hahaha, when I came back from the port, I heard that Locke Manor was going to attack Glinton, so I thought I should find some help, fortunately, I had a wide network of people before, and I met this group of mercenaries on the border of Lorraine." Stukov shouted loudly, and there was a circle of people in front of him, all listening intently to what he was saying.

"This bastard." When Bruce saw Stukov, his eyes immediately burst into flames, and he rushed over angrily.
