Chapter 120: Garrard's Lie!

After Garad's ransom letter was delivered to the kingdom of Svadia, the Marquis of Sweden issued a manifesto as a victim.

He said in the manifesto that the bloody case of Ted Samahi was planned by Rudabao of the Nord Kingdom, and whether it was the Nord soldiers who appeared at the scene of the bloodshed or the extortion letter, there was no doubt that the murderer was found.

The blood debt must be repaid in blood, and the people in the territory are outraging, and the survivors are desperate to seek justice from the Marquis of Ruda in the Nord Kingdom, so he will follow the will of the people and lead his troops into Ruda Fort to seek revenge on the Garradruda father and son who committed the bloody killing.

After issuing this declaration, the Marquis of Sweden gathered an elite army of 3,000 men and brazenly invaded the Rudaburg region, burning and looting the defenseless Nord territory as an avenger, and many villages were reduced to ruins, and the corpses of the villagers were strewn with rivers of blood.

The Swedish army was obviously prepared, and it was very fast along the way, and it only took two days for the army to attack the city of Rudaburg.

The army outside the city was in full formation, and large catapults and carts were assembled by Svadia soldiers on the flat ground.

Afterwards, the Swadia soldiers placed round stone projectiles as large as millstones on the projectile table, and the huge spears were wound up with the order of the Marquis of Sweden.

The soldiers smashed the switch with a sledgehammer, and suddenly the stones flew like locusts and arrows rained down, and they launched an indiscriminate bombardment of Rudabao, causing great casualties to the Nord soldiers defending the city and panicking the Nord villagers who took refuge in the city.

At the time when the Swedish army was pressing, what was the owner of Rudaburg, Marquis Ruda, doing at this time?

"Garrad! Do you know what you've done? Marquis Ruda yelled angrily at his son Garrad.

"Aren't you going to exterminate the thieves' lair? Why did your army appear in the kingdom of Swadia! And what about that ransom letter! ”

"Father!" At this time, Garrard looked at Marquis Ruda with a slightly ashamed face and said, "Please listen to my explanation, there are too many coincidences and helplessness in this matter!" ”

"Tell me about it! I wonder what made you make such a stupid decision! Marquis Ruda looked at Garad with an angry look on his face and said.

"Things have to start with me leading troops to suppress bandits!" Garrard looked at Ruda with a sincere look and began to make up nonsense, "That's a group of thieves with more than a thousand people, they have built a large gathering point at the foot of Mount Ars, and they are still digging for iron ore!" ”

"I took my army to exterminate them with great difficulty, and their combat effectiveness was beyond my imagination, for which I paid a great price! Later, I found out that these people were thieves in captivity by the Marquis of Sweden in the Kingdom of Swadia! Garrard said to Marquis Ruda.

"Their purpose is not only to dig up iron ore, but they even want to establish a solid stronghold in the forest, which will be used as a secret base to attack our Rudaburg and McCannshire!" At this time, Garrard said to Marquis Ruda with a happy expression on his face.

"If it weren't for my unexpected discovery, we would be in big trouble by the time they run the stronghold! McCannshire is right on the edge of the forest! Once attacked by the enemy, the consequences are unimaginable! Father! Garrard said to Ruda in fear.

"Hmmm! This is indeed a very serious problem! But why were you captured? And why is it in Svadia? "Marquis Ruda is very dissatisfied with Garrard's rash actions, Garard's past performance can be said to be excellent, which makes Ruda very satisfied with this heir!

However, Garrard's disaster this time is too great, if the two countries go to war and the Nord Kingdom gains the upper hand, then everything is good, if the Nord Kingdom is defeated, then their father and son will be in big trouble!

"Father, here's how it happened......" Garad began to tell Ruda the lies he and Han Ji had carefully concocted.

"In other words, after your army was poisoned and captured, you cooperated with the other side to repel the Swadian attack and lead the army to plunder one of their towns?" Marquis Ruda looked at Garad with a headache on his face and said.

"Yes, Father! The original Virgian nobleman insisted on demanding a large ransom, but I made him change his mind. Garrard said confidently to Ruda.

"I told him that if he could take that stronghold, we could open a trade route in the forest, exchange our own specialties with each other, and make a good long-term profit! The benefits of this will be more than 20,000 dinars in the distance, and he is obviously very excited! Garrad said to Marquis Ruda in high spirits.

"That little nobleman of Vegia, although he has some excellent followers, he is an outsider himself, and his roots in the Kingdom of Vigia are too shallow, so he has no territory to settle his people and followers."

"He doesn't have much recognition and loyalty to the Kingdom of Vegia, after all, the Kingdom of Vegia did not give him a fief, so he will take his subordinates to occupy the stronghold under the Als Mountains, intending to run it into a territory!"

"I told him that if he could cooperate with us, then we would reap our friendship, and we could make him a vassal of the Nord kingdom and get a fertile and prosperous land, instead of hiding in the ravine and living a hard life, and he was very tempted about this."

"In the end, it was the Swadias who helped him make up his mind!"

"After he had taken that place, the Swedish of Svadia came against him with a large army, and he was clearly no match for the Rakchabaste. At this time, I took the opportunity to propose an alliance to him, and he agreed after thinking about it! ”

"However, as a condition of the alliance, he wanted me to help him repel the Swedish attack of Rochebaste, and I agreed to him!"

"In the end, we defeated the enemy with our army, and chased the deserters who chased them out of the forest, and then the army of the little nobleman ransacked the town of Grimm in a frenzy, and even our soldiers could not resist the temptation of looting, and joined in!" Garad stretched out his hands and said helplessly to Marquis Ruda.

"Hmmm! What's going on with that letter? You wouldn't really write to ransom you, would you? Marquis Ruda asked, looking at Garrard.

"All this was done by that greedy little nobleman, and that greedy guy will not let go of this good opportunity, he not only extorted ransom from those Svadian nobles, but also deliberately forged my letters and plunged me into the vortex!" Garad said this, thinking of Han Ji's hateful face, and said through gritted teeth.

"Humph! Garrard, this time, you've really disappointed me! Although Ruda's tone is very hard, he doesn't blame Garad psychologically, after all, who hasn't lost a beat.

In particular, Garrard was very satisfied with the fact that he had succeeded in winning over his enemies and turning them into partners to use without having to pay any ransom.

If there is any grievance, it is that Gallard has given this Swedish guy an excuse to go to war, and now war is inevitable.

"Garrad, get ready for battle! If we win, your problem is not a problem, after all, the winner is not to blame! Ruda looked at Garrard and said seriously.

"Yes, father, I understand!" Garrard nodded in response with the same serious nod.

Garrad's lie allowed him to gain Ruda's forgiveness, among them, Han Ji contributed a lot, and the reason why this is the case is, of course, there is a deeper calculation.
