The cries of the Milanese made the young knights in the count's army resentful.

The count was not decided, but many poor knights, young or without property, pointed to their swords or shields and rebuked the old nobles.

"What about the oaths you took when you became knights?"

For these knights, once they even voted for the main city, they could only have empty names left.

Tens of thousands of people came, and even the Count Nehdomon was allowed to retain the title, but all the wealth would be transferred.

At last, all eyes fell on the old earl.

The candles in the room burned little by little, like the rest of the life of the Earl.

The Earl did not expect that the treaty signed by Bran before could be overturned in an instant, and the soldiers were quickly gathered to push in.

The territory that he had taken care of was torn apart by the invasion, and all the forces could not be gathered in one place.

Godly worship and covenant keeping, these advantages, Branming is very good, and when he reneges it, there is no pressure at all.

From the disadvantage to the current situation, there is no possibility of a reversal. All that's left is to see how long it lasts?

"Cast it."

The Count gritted his teeth and squeezed out these two sentences.

The nobles who were afraid of death were relieved, but when the earl led people to prepare to climb the female wall.

Another flying stone flashed under the city wall, directly injuring a knight who said he was going to surrender.

The gates were about to be lowered to welcome Bran inside.

But this kind of death infuriates the count's sense of honor. He asked the soldier to hold the shield and climb the women's wall, and then shouted.

"If any Milanese dares to enter, I will let him die."

This is the last battle, and Bran is in the city, and victory is in his hands, and since the Count is so stubborn, send him to God.

The aristocracy of the whole of Central Italy, as long as they had a little status, almost all witnessed the battle of Bran to conquer the city of Kling.

The wind of the Mediterranean, blowing from the east.

Bran looked at the city of Kling, and in the dark night, the castle was strong, atmospheric, and tenacious, and the count's family crest was painted on the walls.

Several clergymen from the army came to persuade Bran.

"Your Highness, they are all brothers who believe in the Lord, I want to talk, and I am willing to serve as a messenger."

Bran told them, "Before I was fifteen years old, I took part in the first battle of my life against the Northern Italian Marquis.

The first time I killed so many people, I also asked myself if I had built too many killings,

However, there are those who have no brains, who have no blessing from God, who cannot see the situation clearly, and who involve their territories in war, disease, and famine for no reason.

Who am I?

I'm Bran. Chaman, heir to the Grand Duke of the Dragon Slayer after the greatest Venetian family, I was blessed by the gods, and later heard the voice of Christ in both ears before the Holy See in Rome. ”

Bran patted the seven-star sword on his waist, "A few years ago, Rome was in turmoil, the artifact changed hands, and the traitor embraced the incompetent throne and stole the artifact.

The Venetians, the mountain people, and the people of Northern Italy all support me as the master, and the great cause is close at hand, and anyone who stands in our way is heresy!

Heavenly Father entrusted me with the task of recasting Rome. ”

In the past two years, Bran has consulted with his subordinates, the voice of Christ, recast Rome, and has believed himself.

This conversation, recorded by the clergy, has a term that appears for the first time, called "spiritual Romans".

That's what came from Bran.

Bran didn't have the papostolage in his hands, so he dared to brand his opponent as a heretic, and such arrogance made the clergy in the army afraid and did not dare to say much.

The battle of Kling City lasted two days.

Muskets and flying stones can't break through this century-old city in a short time.

After several fights, the Milan army used a large number of long ladders and battle flags on the women's wall to change three rounds.

However, the city of Kling remained very stable, and in the end, a small number of knights could not withstand the great pressure of the war, opened a small door, and brought in enemy troops, so that the Milanese could control the situation.

The Milanese who entered the city raised their butcher's knives wantonly, causing many nobles.

Strong enemy present, brave and fearless,

Protect the weak and honor the will of God.

These knightly slogans are full of irony in the butcher's knife in Milan.

Of course, all this is classified as the self-inflicted actions of his subordinates, and when it is almost time to vent, His Highness the benevolent Bran stepped forward,

Nehdomon eventually set himself on fire in his palace.

When the news of his death broke, many of the people wept, deepening their bitterness towards the Milanese.

As a monarch who loves fame, he did some good things compared to other feudal lords.

Stealing a palm-sized loaf of bread may be chopping off in other realms, but in his realm, only a few sins can maim a person, and the others are mitigated.

Territorial almsgiving from time to time, etc.

On the second day of the siege, Bou received news that surprised him.

The presence of enemy troops in the south crossing the border will not be less than six thousand.

At this moment, in the land of southern Italy, there is only one force that may appear quietly, and that is the army from Rome.

By the time Bran received this information, the enemy had already crossed southern Italy and entered the border with China.

Their purpose is not Milan, but they are coming towards Milan.

This action came from Yi An's command.

As the son-in-law of Chaisu, after Chaisu's death, he controlled Roman government and supported the eldest son of the Mimuan family in a vegetative state.

When he received news of Bran's invasion, he wanted to send someone to negotiate peace with the Count, but the route of entry was blocked by the Milanese.

So he instead ordered to persuade the other nobles who bordered the local territory, that is, the two and a half lords who were outside the battlefield.

Bran tore up the agreement, and Bichaisu arrived with the Holy Decree of the Pope.

The nobles treated the Romans as guests.

Yi An was not intimidated by Bran's loud voice.

He analyzed to the nobles that the Milanese army would definitely not last, and the Milanese had disagreements with the Franks, the Trois-Rivières, and the Byzantines. Launching a large army expedition can only be a quick victory, and a war that drags on for more than half a year will soon be shaken if it is not for the defense of the territory.

On the Tunisian side, it is only a superficial ally with Bran, and as for those Songhai people farther away, they are not close to the sea, and there are not even a big boat in the country, so do they want to row over and beat you with wooden boats?

On the day that the city of Klin was defeated, Yi An took advantage of the fear of these lords for Bran and successfully concluded a peace treaty in batches, and only showed the strength of the army, without spending manpower, and pushed his power out for dozens of miles.

Bran suppressed the matter and continued to command the breakdown.

When the city was broken, there were still 7,000 inhabitants of the city, who were being robbed and wailing.

Cleanse a part, leave a part, take care of a part, and within seven days the count will be erased from people's memory.

Bran used brutal tactics to integrate.

When the turmoil in the north and the English caused the Scots to revolt, when these things reached Milan, the ministers despised these northerners for being brainless.

But when it happens to you, it's not that simple.

Bran intended to redistrict, appoint and dismiss officials, and also redistribute food to these former enemies.

It will take at least a few months for these things to be stabilized, and Bran will pull out the big nobles first, but the small and medium nobles, all who can stay.

There is a lot of friction between the victors and the vanquished.

In particular, the Church of the Illusions did one more thing.

In this battle, Fernando brought nearly 2,000 men to support, and as soon as he broke through the city of Klin, he immediately asked his priests to rush into the church and use the sword in their hands to force the priests to convert.

Although it is still the Illuminati, the most important holy book in his hand now is the Holy Book of Illusions compiled by the Order.

It was already clear that the Order's intentions were to keep the faith in light completely, and if Rome were to be overcome, the Pope would have to come out of the clergy who believed in them.

Food, swords.

These two things are the driving force behind Bran's continued push south.

Land, title.

These two are the chase of the men.

Before the new land is digested, a general meeting is to be called, a partial reward is given, and the troops are to be redivided.

The seventh day of entering the city of Kling.

The fog of war had lifted from above, and a large number of corpses had been moved underground.

Bran walked around the perimeter of the castle, which was well built, but it was an empty shell, and the Count gave all his possessions to the soldiers for the war, and these goods were scattered throughout the city.

Naturally, Bran couldn't get it all back.

However, Bran doesn't attach much importance to these things, he attaches importance to historical legal documents.

As with the previous dominions, the Bran Apocryphal Edict revised the original document and added the Chamans' dominion over the land.

After this war, Bran's territorial power expanded by more than a third, enough to establish another duke title.

Bran planned to wait for the unification of the peninsula and divide Italy into five dukedoms.

The dukedom of Kling was established in Italy, and the duke was still held by his grandfather, and the widow of the earl was moved to the High Court by order of Bran to live (warden).

At this moment, the ministers also knew the intentions of the Roman army in the south, because they had already come into contact with the Milanese army yesterday.

The rhetoric revealed a threat that if the Milanese crossed the boundaries of Roman protection, they would do whatever it took to do so.

After receiving this letter, Bran passed it on, and everyone either kept silent, or they were confident by their own army and persuaded Bran to continue south.

Of these people, only Hilde has been in contact with Yi'an.

Last night, Bran had already shown him the letter in advance, and Hilde seemed to be afraid that Bran would misunderstand, so he first explained at that time, but then said the wrong thing, and after Bran accentuated his voice, he got down on one knee and did not know what Yi An was doing.

Having to help work and earn food from an early age, Hilde had a rather hard apprenticeship.

He has also made a lot of small mistakes, he has learned, but when you explain to your superiors, you must not explain in a low-handed manner, there must be flaws, half-truths and half-truths, and you can win the trust of others.

Although he didn't leak information, it can be said that he didn't leak anything, but in this way he was more afraid of Brando's heart.

"Your Highness, since the beginning of the war, I have devoted myself to helping Milan to achieve meritorious deeds, and according to your orders, the caravans sent to Rome have been exchanged for grain, claiming to them that they are not harvested, so as to paralyze them, please believe me......"

"Get up, I don't mean anything, since you are familiar with him, it is up to you to contact Yi'an."

This is difficult for a strong man, since Bran has Shangluo's intentions, Yi'an, who is the target, why should he retreat?

But Bran spoke, and Hield had to take it head-on.

Hilde thought all night after exiting Bran.

For a long time, Simon has been in contact with the three people, and he has been in contact with Yi An, and he knows Yi An's character very well.

Suspicious and contemptuous of faith.

To deal with such people, it is possible to make an offer, to be driven by interests, or to have a common enemy.

At the meeting, Simon's faction did not preemptively hold Hilde accountable because of Ambu's affairs.

And Hilde also took the initiative to say that he wanted to act as an envoy, so the matter was suppressed first.

Then there is Brady, the mad bull, originally according to the plan, Bran planned to let him die in battle, but not only did it not work out, but he also became the key to holding the battle of Norma, and got merit before 10,000 people.

Brady demanded the Earl's main city and a large surrounding fief, equivalent to half of the original Earl Nech's direct domain.

Some of the allies who followed the battle also asked for rewards.

In fact, if these people really do what they want, the land will not even be enough.

However, Bran remained silent and took back the title, and when the battle of Shangluo was over, he would carry it out.

At this time, the number of troops that could be called upon in the hands came to 36,000.

Bran sent 10,000 men back to Milan to recuperate, and by the way, stabilized the rear to mediate the Juta incident, and left the conscription of the various counts, Bran decided to use these people to confront Yi'an.

This time, the pressure on grain and grass was greatly reduced in an instant.

The city of Kling will also be an important city in the future, and Bran has re-ordered that this city already belongs to Milan, and that no more chaos will be prohibited.

And the next day he led the group south, all the way to the border of the city of Quitai in southern Rome.

......

Duchy of Milan, High Court.

The woman closed the door and hurried in and out.

The assassination made the periphery of the palace that had always been lax, produce the strictest inspection, and the nearby towns of Ratan and Rabi.

Men who have no priorities are forced to form security teams and patrol day and night.

Although the old duke's arrow did not make him unconscious, he was already in his sixties, and no matter how well he was maintained, his body was still full of wrinkles.

This time he fainted, and the old man who woke up suddenly was a little different from before.

When death comes, it is simply unpredictable.

And to be able to wake up again, the old duke thinks that this is because he is very good to the clergy.

He suddenly had the idea of killing less and doing more good deeds.

Marlene worked tirelessly day and night to take care of the Archduke, and even his son Carrion was by his side.

This kid has a round build, unlike the skinny Henry.

The Grand Duke liked his gesture and often took him with him, and he also called out to his grandfather.

After nearly ten days of care, Howard was finally able to get out of bed.

This is what Malian told him that he had already caught Mi'er and the man.

At the same time, Pande brought people back and arrested more than 50 Judits who had instigated a riot in the city.

Miar?

The eldest prince has an ordinary impression of this girl who has slept with a few times.

It was precisely because he had slept with the Grand Duke, as Chaman's woman, that he was not tortured and imprisoned in solitude.

"How did you catch her?"

"No, she went to the meeting herself, five days ago, and begged not to hurt the Jutas."

Hearing that he was coming, the Grand Duke thought for a moment, "You asked her to come to me." ”

Marlene hesitated, but according to the Grand Duke's orders, she never asked the monarch what he thought, all she had to do was to raise the safety to the highest level.

Mi'er was held in a room without any sharp objects, only a bed, a barrel, and a quilt.

Every day, when the food is eaten, the utensils are put down, the bell is ringed, and someone will take it away.

But even so, when he was pressed by the maid and came to the Grand Duke, he was still searched in humiliation.

Mi'er was very happy to get the news that the Grand Duke wanted to see her.

She has many lives on her shoulders, and she must save her companions.

In the backyard of the high court, there can be no men casually, and there are a group of female officials who have been screened and have powerful women.

It was up to these people to protect the weakened Grand Duke.

When Mi'er was chained and brought to Howard, she pounced and immediately knelt down.
