Chapter 284: Eight Barons
"Baron Willy!"
As soon as Willy walked into the reception hall, he saw the three people in the seats who were originally communicating, and got up at the same time and greeted him, each with a humble smile on their faces.
"Baron Lunit, Baron Naondo, Baron Bivid, long time no see. ”
Willy also responded with a smile, not tying people because of the strength of White Bear Town.
He and the three barons had met about twice in eight months, and it had only been two months since they had last met, so it was a bit inappropriate to say that they had not seen each other for a long time.
"I'd like to hear what the guys were talking about. ”
Willy just picked a random seat on the side and sat down.
But even so, he was still regarded as the core by the other three barons.
"It's not for the sake of Freshgrass Town......
Baron Bivid of Fresh Grass shook his head slightly, a sad look on his face.
One of the main reasons for this meeting was that some people couldn't hold back and tried to attack the southwest border.
The target of this attack is Baron Bivid's Fresh Grass Town.
Five days ago, a coal mine belonging to Xiancao Town was suddenly forcibly occupied by a group of people, they were well-equipped and well-manned, and the coal mine guards at that time were no match at all.
The cautious Baron Bivid did not immediately counterattack, and at this point in time, there must be no recklessness.
Later, after a post-mortem investigation, Baron Bivid discovered that the gang were Viscount Babila of Oyster City.
After learning the news, Baron Bivid hurriedly spread the news to the Alliance Lords, and finally facilitated the meeting of the Baronons on the Southwest Frontier.
Although Bafang is not an alliance on the surface, in fact, it is already a community of interests with White Bear Town as the core.
"Actually, Viscount Babila did it this time, and I still haven't understood ......"
It was Baron Naondo who spoke, and like Baron Lunet, he was a middle-aged man whose hair had begun to turn gray.
Except for Willy, among the barons, only Baron Vader in Fresh Grass Town is younger, and he is only in his thirties now.
"According to Viscount Babila's character, he shouldn't take the initiative to make a move, he has always been a character who plans before acting, and even says that he is a little cringe, and he never makes the first move, so this time, I think it's very abnormal. ”
Baron Naondo furrowed his brows, puzzled.
Baron Lunit on the side also nodded.
Only Baron Bivid is a real headache.
If you don't handle it well, you may get into trouble.
"What do you think, Baron Willy?"
Baron Bivid rubbed his temples and asked Willy.
Willy is the backbone at the critical moment.
"It would be incomprehensible to see this as a personal act on the part of Viscount Babila. Willy smiled faintly, his eyes narrowing slightly, "But what if this is not Viscount Babila's personal behavior, but is instructed by others?"
In fact, half a month ago, the intelligence system of White Bear Town received relevant information, but it has not been confirmed for the time being.
However, the seizure of the coal mine in Fresh Grass Town made Willy feel that the news had become credible.
"Huh?"
The other three barons' faces changed, and they glanced at each other, seeing the shock in everyone's eyes.
Was Viscount Babila under the command of someone?
So, could it be that Viscount Babila has joined a more powerful group as well?
They didn't doubt Willy's words, White Bear Town's intelligence system was even more powerful than theirs.
"So, Viscount Babila, who is at the behest?"
Baron Bivid stared at Willy in bewilderment.
Not only Bived, but also several other barons had the same puzzled looks.
Willy was about to answer, but as soon as the words came to his lips, Willy took them back.
"Someone is coming......"
Willy whispered, looking at the door of the parlor.
I saw another baron walking in with his subordinates.
He was not young, he looked to be in his sixties, his skin was very loose, and his hair was full of gray hair.
Baron Hebaso of the town of Liema.
"Welcome, Baron Hebaso. ”
Velli stood up first and said to the old baron Hebaso.
At the same time, the other three barons also stood up and greeted Baron Hebaso.
"I've seen Baron Willy. ”
Baron Hebaso was the first to salute Willy in return, with a very low posture.
Although he was the oldest, he was still very respectful to Willy.
Subsequently, Baron Hebaso exchanged salutes with the other three barons.
"Someone is here again. ”
Baron Hebaso had just sat down when he saw several figures walking in from outside the reception hall.
This time, two barons came together, and several of them, accompanied by Baron Kells, entered the reception hall at the same time.
The few people who had just sat down got up again at the same time, everyone greeted each other, and after a greeting, everyone began to officially enter the theme.
"Everyone, we won't talk nonsense, the current situation is getting more and more complicated, and the peace time at the beginning of the era of independent lords that everyone expected may be shortened a lot, after all, there are already people who have begun to attack the idea of our southwest border. ”
Presiding over this meeting was Baron Kells, who is the master of Diamond Town and is quite appropriate for this role.
"Viscount Barbila of Oyster City has forcibly taken possession of the coal mines of Freshgrass Town under the rule of Baron Bivid. We must certainly not see it simply as a plunder of resources, but as a signal to break the situation. ”
Baron Kells looked solemn and continued, "What do you think about this matter?"
"Before you arrived, Baron Willy had a brief conversation with the three of us. According to Baron Willy's intelligence from White Bear Town, Viscount Babila's move seems to have been instructed by others......"
Baron Lunit glanced at Willy, then said.
"Someone else's command?"
It's Baron Kells, and it's also a lock between his eyebrows.
"Who is it?"
Another new baron asked.
Willy groaned, he knew it was time for him to speak.
"Viscount Jadens of Netstone City. ”
This is the information obtained by the intelligence system of White Bear Town, and now Willy has basically confirmed the correctness of the information.
"Viscount Jadden of Netstone City?"
When the rest of the viscounts heard this, their faces changed drastically.
Netstone City, which is one of the few large cities in the original Daweipur province.
His lord, Viscount Jadens, is recognized as a powerful viscount.
In his territory, there are intermediate knights, and in addition, there seems to be a considerable number of extraordinary knights.
Moreover, the trade of Netstone City is very developed, the economy is prosperous, the resources are innumerable, and the strife in the era of independent lords has not officially begun, and Viscount Jadens is already recognized as the overlord of Daweipur Province.
If Viscount Barbila was instructed by Viscount Jadens to attack Fresh Grass Town, then the southwest border seems to be in big trouble.
"Is that ......?"
Compared to the other six barons, Baron Kells is much more indifferent.
On the one hand, it is because the foundation of Diamond Town has been improved, and on the other hand, it is because of his confidence in Willy and White Bear Town.
Others may not know, but Baron Kells knows very well that the current White Bear Town, after a long period of Taoguang cultivation, has exceeded the number of transcendents under his command has exceeded the total number of transcendents in other southwestern border territories, and there is also an elite guard regiment in White Bear Town, and the number of strong people in it is beyond imagination.
In the eyes of Baron Kells, the strength of Willy and White Bear Town is not necessarily worse than that of Viscount Najadens.
It's just that because of his low-key behavior and deliberate concealment, the strength of White Bear Town has not yet been exposed to everyone's view.
"In this way, my fresh grass town ......"
Baron Bivid's face was the most ugly.
If Viscount Jadens really wants to forcibly intervene in the southwest border, the first one to finish is definitely Freshgrass Town.
"Baron Willy...... What should I do......"
Baron Bivid, who was a little dispossessed, looked at Willy with a pleading look.
Baron Bivid was worried, he was afraid that he would be abandoned by the other lords of the southwestern frontier because he was being targeted by such a terrible enemy.
"Baron Bivid, you can relax first, we are partners who belong to the southwest border, and we will definitely not let Xiancao Town be slaughtered by foreign enemies. ”
Willy calmed Baron Bivid's emotions.
Willy appeared rather calm: "We should join forces against our enemies. ”
"Join forces?"
Aside from Baron Kells, the other barons didn't understand what Willy meant.
Aren't we all together, overtly or covertly......
Unless......
Several people's hearts trembled.
"I think that the eight barony territories on our southwestern frontier can be completely united. ”
Willy suddenly lowered his voice, with a strong sense of control in his tone: "At the same time, I will sign a joint statement to achieve a complete union of several parties!"
"Completely united?"
The rest of the barons all furrowed their brows instantly.
"In this way, even if an external force wants to target one of our territories, it will be afraid of our overall strength and become suspicious. It's a good thing for several of us. I don't know what you guys think?"
Willy smiled slightly, then leaned back lightly in the back of the seat.
"This ......"
Several barons had ugly expressions on their faces.
Radical joint ......
What Willy meant was simply too obvious.
What is called a complete union is that several parties are condensed into a single whole.
This means that the lieges that were previously independent of each other will become members of the United Organizations with different statuses.
In this way, there is restraint and containment.
Among them, the most powerful White Bear Town will become their leader.
Once this joint statement is signed, the nature of the identity, which was originally free and independent, will change.
For a while, several barons had a dilemma in their hearts.
They also didn't expect that Willy would suddenly make such a request.
