"It's been a few days, why haven't the Empire's reinforcements arrived yet?" Viscount Rubin fidgeted at the head of his own city. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 When the wolf cavalry army appeared outside the city, he was terrified and hesitant in his heart, but now that the wolf cavalry had disappeared from outside Silverstone, he became more and more worried. Especially in several aristocratic manors and towns outside the city, there was repeated news that they had been slaughtered by wolf cavalry, coupled with the disappearance of his staff Martin, Viscount Rubin was even more bitter in his heart, how could this kind of unfortunate thing that was rare in a hundred years appear during his tenure?

"Your Excellency, it's been six days, and it is said that the Empire should have received our request for help a long time ago, but the main army of the Empire has been transferred to the Holy Griffin Empire, and it is necessary to guard against the rebels in the three southern provinces, I am afraid that it is impossible to say if the reinforcements will arrive, and when they will arrive!" an official replied in a low voice, his tone low and terrifying, as if he had completely lost hope.

"yes, I don't know how long we can last, the current situation in the city is not very good!" another official complained casually.

"What's going on in the city again?" Viscount Rubin glared at the official, the last thing he wanted to hear was any bad news.

"In the city...... There had been a large number of refugees from Barony Leo in the city, and although the Brontë family had helped to settle them, they were ...... But the prices have skyrocketed these days, and the inhabitants of the city have been complaining for a long time!" the official replied with a stumbling glare at Viscount Rubin.

"Baron Leo! it's this Baron Leo again!" Viscount Rubin roared suddenly, but soon he realized his gaffe, let go of his clenched fist and straightened his collar, cleared his throat as if mockingly, and said casually, "All those refugees were brought by Baron Leo?"

Before the official could reply, an attendant came running from afar, shouting as he ran: "Your Excellency, Your Excellency, your Excellency, good news!"

As soon as he heard the good news, Viscount Rubin didn't care about chatting with the city officials anymore, and hurriedly took three steps and two steps to meet him, and asked loudly, "What's the good news?

When the attendant approached, he breathlessly said, "Your Excellency, is it ...... Be...... It was those wolf cavalry who withdrew from the surroundings of Silverstone!"

When Viscount Rubin heard the news, his face was first happy, and then his face was full of suspicion: "Those wolf cavalry can't withdraw for no reason, they can't be careless, maybe it's their trick!"

"No...... According to the people of the Imperial Supervision Department, it seems that they have suffered a loss in the Barony of Leo, and all the wolf cavalry have gathered in Barony Leo to take revenge!" The attendant immediately explained.

"Oh, really, that's good news, hahaha~" When Viscount Rubin heard this, he laughed out loud, regardless of the occasion. The city officials behind him looked at each other, as if they did not expect that Viscount Rubin, who had always regarded himself as fair and strict, would gloat over Baron Leo in such a gloating way.

It seems that Baron Leo still has a grudge against Viscount Rubin for defeating Paul! In this way, the consul was not as impartial as he usually appeared, but it seemed a little hypocritical, and the thoughts of several municipal officials welled up in their hearts at the same time.

"Ahem!" Viscount Rubin laughed before realizing that he had lost his temper again, and hurriedly covered up: "That...... Now that Viscount Brontë has taken over the affairs of the refugees in the city, continue to put him in charge, and you should calm the citizens and tell them that this is a time of crisis for the Empire, and that those who take the lead in making trouble will not be punished severely!"

Compared with Viscount Rubin's gloating, the Brontës were full of sorrow.

"Brother, the grain we brought from the manor was almost exhausted, and in the days when the city gate was closed, the price of food in the city skyrocketed, and even if we wanted to, we might not be able to buy it, and if this continues, we really can't afford to support those refugees!" Baron Duke said to Viscount Brontë with a sad face.

"Uncle Duke, are we going to abandon those refugees from Barony Leo? Don't forget, if Baron Leo hadn't sent us a message, our Brontë family might not have been able to escape into Silverstone in time. Look at Baron Dewar, Baron Sammy, which one of them didn't destroy the manor?he saved our whole family!" Miss Winnie was naturally about to speak for Leo at this time, and she stared at Baron Duke angrily.

"Oh, my darling, you don't know, someone has just reported that the wolf cavalry has withdrawn from the vicinity of Silverstone. Viscount Brontë said with a sigh.

Miss Winnie had just a smile on her face, and when she saw that her father was still looking sad, her heart lifted again: "Father, is something wrong?"

Viscount Brontë made a wry smile at Miss Winnie: "It is said that those wolf cavalry have all gathered in the Barony of Leo, and it looks like they have to break Baron Leo's castle!"

"What?!" Miss Winnie was disgraced by the news, and a pair of soft eyes held Viscount Brontë's arm tightly: "How can this be?"

"Oh, Winnie baby, don't worry, Baron Leo has a strong castle to rely on, and most of the soldiers under his command are elite, besides, the imperial reinforcements will arrive in a few days, as long as he survives these few days, he will be safe, you don't have to worry about him!" Baron Duke comforted Miss Winnie, but when he looked at his brother, he shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't really have much hope.

"Winnie, it's useless for you to worry about it now, you might as well really do something to help him. "Viscount Brontë intends to find something to do for Miss Winnie in order to distract her.

Seeing Miss Winnie raise her head and look at her questioningly, Viscount Brontë said: "Now that our family has not much food in stock, you can mobilize your friends and organize them to donate some food to the disaster victims, which can not only reduce the pressure on the family, but also help more disaster victims to eat." ”

"Well, that's a good idea, I'll do it!" Miss Winnie wiped the tears from her eyes with her backhand, saluted her father and uncle, and then turned and hurried away.

"Alas, let's hope the Imperial reinforcements will come sooner, and I hope Winnie herself will get through this, poor child!" said Viscount Brontë with a sigh as he looked at Winnie's departing figure.
