Gleman was of good stature, one meter eight tall, with tangled muscles all over his body, and weighed more than one hundred and fifteen, which was enough to be called a giant in the eyes of the people of the original halfling era, but in today's Holy Land, the Terran soldiers can only be middle-to-high.

Less than half a minute after Rollin arrived at the camp of the guards, Griman came out, his attitude was very respectful, he did not have a weapon on his body, and the epaulettes representing the rank of commander were also taken off, and his shoulders were bare.

"Fort Master, Griman is incompetent, he actually let the assassins into the fortress, and I don't have the face to be the commander of the guard anymore." His face was full of guilt.

Luo Lin laughed secretly in his heart when he heard this, this guy can act. However, he also knew that this was a loyal statement by the other party, and he handed over the disposal to Rollin, which showed that he had no careful thinking and recognized the legitimacy of Rollin's succession.

At this time, it is the time to employ people, and of course Rollin will not be stupid to change generals on the spot.

His face was solemn, although because of his young age, this expression was not very deterrent, but Griman still did not dare to squeak: "The assassin is a dead man, but after the heavy sentence, he still confessed some things, guess what he said?" ”

Rollin stared at Gleman.

Griman felt a huge oppressive force in his gaze, and the sweat on his forehead oozed out at once, his heart pounded, and he stammered a little: "Castle master, I can't guess." ”

"He said it was you, Griman, who instructed him." Rolling's hand is pressed to the revolver at his waist, and if necessary, he can draw the gun and fire six shots in 0.5 seconds, the result of years of training.

Griman was already panicking, he had no idea that the ten-year-old would put such pressure on him. In his previous impression, Verando seemed to be an obscure child, and there was no rumor that he had done anything maverick. But now, he had the illusion of a beast standing in front of him, which made him lose his normal judgment.

"No, lord of the castle, I didn't do it! How could I do that! My old Griman has always been loyal to the Thales family, and would never do such a thing. If I do, how can I explain to the marshal? Griman felt a loud shout. He felt his legs go limp, he could barely stand, and sweat was constantly oozing from his back.

I was almost scared. Rollin slowed down his expression and nodded, "I thought so too, so I didn't believe him." ”

'Whew' Griman exhaled, feeling the weight of a thousand pounds on his back be lifted at once. The whole person was relaxed.

"Castle Master" he wanted to say something. But I didn't know what to say, and I was stuck for a while.

Rollin took the epaulettes from Gleeman's hand, buckled his shoulders with his own hands, then reached out and patted him, and said, "Come in with me, I have something to tell you!" ”

"Yes." Griman instinctively gave a military salute, then obediently followed Rollin into the barracks.

Got to the barracks. Rollin waved his hand at the guards and said, "You all go out." I have something to say to Commander Gleeman. You two go out too, and don't let anyone come in and disturb you. ”

The guards in the room were all Gleeman's men, and some of them were Gryman's diehards, but they all witnessed the majesty of the new castle lord just now, and they didn't dare to say a word, or even look at Gleeman, and walked out of the house without saying a word.

Soon, Rollin and Griman were left in the room.

For some reason, Griman found himself feeling cramped and uneasy, he was almost forty years old, and he had a frightened state of mind in front of a ten-year-old child, and he had to be cautious, which was incredible to think about, but the pressure was real, and Gleeman tried to get rid of it, but he couldn't succeed.

"Commander Griman, sit." A voice sounded in his ear, and Griman looked up to find that the young lord of the new castle was already sitting in his usual seat, pointing to the chair to the side.

Griman hurriedly walked over and sat down.

"The situation at Bluestone Fort is dangerous, you must be able to feel it, right?" Rollin asked.

Gleeman nodded: "Yes, once the Wolf Castle knows that the main battle of Greloch Fort has died, it will definitely attack desperately, and we only have three days to prepare at most." ”

"That's true." Rollin agrees with Gleeman's inference that the Commander still has some skills.

He said slowly: "My father fought all his life, and victory has always been by his side. My family is now the only one left in the fate of my family, but despite this, I still don't want to disgrace my father's reputation. I am determined to restore my father's glory, but I can't do it alone, I need help, will you help me? ”

Griman thought of the invincible Marshal Thales, who had followed the marshal to fight in the abyss, as soon as he thought of the god-like figure, and then looked at the extremely similar face of the young man and the marshal in front of him, his heart was hot, and he couldn't help but rush out: "Castle Lord, I, Gryman, swear to follow in your footsteps!" ”

"Good!" Rollin's spirits perked up slightly, it seemed that he was not wrong, although this Gleman had a conservative personality, he still had loyalty to Thales in his heart, which was very good.

"I've received word that there is a problem with the Celestial Tailor shop inside the fortress, possibly related to the Assassins. You know, the Guards have to guard the Lion Manor, and they can't be moved, so I need your Guards now. ”

As soon as these words came out, Gleeman's spirits suddenly lifted, the new castle lord needed his help, this was not a verbal statement, but a practical statement, which showed that the other party trusted him.

He immediately said, "I'll go organize the manpower now." ”

"Don't mess it up, I need to find out the inside story."

"Absolutely not, don't worry, castle master." Griman was still experienced in this matter, and he answered with confidence.

"Then you can do it."

"Yes." Griman went out in good spirits, and after a while the guards were dispatched and surrounded the tailor's shop.

The door of the barracks opened, and Luo Lin walked out, and said to the two henchmen at the door: "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”

At this time it was already half past six in the afternoon, it was winter, the days were short and the nights were long, the sun had already set, the sky was already dark, and from the door of the barracks, you could see that the guards were advancing lightly. Leaving behind a blur of black shadows, like a predator lurking in the night.

Rollin and his guards followed not far behind the guards, probably walking more than a hundred meters. In the dark night, a dark shadow came, it was Luo Lin's close guard, there were about thirty people, and they protected Luo Lin in the middle.

Rollin was very cautious, propped up an umbrella, and hid under the umbrella to watch the situation ahead.

Soon, there was an angry shout in the dim night. Then the guards rushed into the tailor shop one by one, and after a while, there was an angry shout from inside. A few gunshots followed, followed by screams, which were not loud enough and soon stopped. I think it's already done.

This is normal. It's just a small tailor's shop, and the commander of an army goes out in person, and if he is still made by his opponent, then this commander will be the end.

In the darkness of the night, Rollin heard Griman scolding a few times, as if he had noticed something unexpected, and after a while he returned to the barracks. Behind him, the soldiers carried a dozen tailors and carried a long wooden box.

Wait for Griman to be around. Rollin stopped him, "Commander Griman, what have you discovered?" ”

Griman was stunned, and immediately stepped forward, first gave a military salute to Rollin, and then waved to the soldiers behind him: "Bring people up, and the box is also carried over." ”

Don't look at people first, look at things, the box is opened, and there are three high-precision sniper muskets inside, all of which are contraband in the fortress. There was also a stack of ledgers stuffed next to the musket, and Rollin looked through it and found that it was all written in code, and what the specific code words were had to be pried out of the mouths of the captives.

Rollin patted Gleeman on the shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"Castle Master, this is my dereliction of duty, please punish me!" Griman solemnly said that there was not much space in the fortress, but there was such a big basket, and he, the commander of the defense, could not justify it.

"The punishment is put in advance. Tomorrow I will officially succeed to the throne, and during this time, I need the absolute security of the fortress, and there must be no disturbance, can you do it? Rollin stared into Griman's eyes.

"Yes!" Griman replied loudly, and the young master Verando in front of him reminded him of Marshal Thales, the same decisiveness, the same majesty. The similarity made him feel as if he had gone back in time, and he couldn't help but respond to Rollin in the same way he responded to the marshal.

"Okay." Rollin waved his hand at Griman's men and ordered, "Take all these people to the Red Stone House for interrogation, and clean the fort tonight!" ”

The soldiers immediately turned around and escorted the captives to the Red Stone House. In the redstone room, the shadowy interrogator looked at these fellows with a grim smile on his face, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Rollin didn't look at this guy's bloody interrogation, he waited patiently outside the redstone house, and in the middle of the night, the results came out, and the interrogator handed him the deciphered code book with a bloody body, and there was a list of the names of the people who were bought in the bluestone fort and the territory, there were more than fifty people, officials, soldiers, and merchants, almost all over the territory, and more than twenty of them had infiltrated the bluestone fortress.

What surprised Rollin even more was that the real mastermind behind the scenes was not Wolf Castle, but the Brotherhood of Kings who fled in all directions after being beaten by General Gudank.

"The King's Brotherhood, which has degenerated into an Assassin Order." Rollin sighed to himself, he looked at the list in his hand, and one of the most shocking guys was a battle airship captain named 'Singh', and the airship that Grelockburg was riding in before his death in the main battle was his.

In other words, his eldest brother was not really killed in battle, but was assassinated, no wonder his injuries would be powerless for the capital of the pastor.

Luo Lin waved the list and said to Nolan beside him: "Take this list, copy multiple copies, and announce it to the whole city tomorrow." Also, you go tell Griman that I hope to see the heads of all the moles in the city hanging next to the list board tomorrow. ”

"Yes!" Nolan took the order and left.

Rollin turned to Brighton again and said, "You take my magic seal, give the transcribed list to Hofst and Dante, and tell them that no one on the list should be spared, but only the people on the list should be killed, and no innocent people should be implicated." ”

Hofst and Dante are the other two leaders of Bluestone Castle, and only by pooling their forces can they eliminate the power of all the King's Brotherhood in his realm as soon as possible.

Brighton solemnly accepted Rollin's seal and took the order to leave.

Watching the figures of the two disappear into the darkness, Luo Lin looked up at the dark sky without a single star, and sighed: "It seems that there will be a lot of blood tonight." ”

If he already has a lot of power and a lot of cards in his hand, he may choose to negotiate with the King's Brotherhood to settle the matter relatively peacefully, and even benefit from it.

But not now, he hasn't been the owner of the castle yet, and he's too young to be trusted.

At this time, he must show a tough attitude with iron and blood, so that the Brotherhood of Kings will have more worries when planning to assassinate him in the future, and weigh the price that needs to be paid if the assassination fails. At the same time, he also wants to use this action to make the people of his territory realize his strength and will.

In these troubled times, people need a strong, iron-blooded commander, not a benevolent monarch. (To be continued......)
