Regardless of whether the nobles under Erdo Castle understand it or not, the nobles of the Overwatch Alliance understand it very well anyway.

Since ancient times, cold weather has undoubtedly been more favorable for the defender than for the attacker.

At present, the Overwatch League is in a defensive posture, so it will naturally drag on for time.

Regarding the request for a meeting between the nobles of the two sides, the side of the Overwatch Alliance dragged on for five days.

The reason given by the Overwatch Alliance is also very simple and rude, it has only snowed, and the land of the entire valley is muddy, as a noble meeting, it is not suitable to roll in the mud, which is too unnoble.

Of course, in the face of the Overwatch Alliance's clear idea of delaying time, Baron Walter did not react.

In fact, the rapid march in the heavy snow a few days ago did cause his army to suffer serious losses, and many soldiers suffered from frostbite to varying degrees and needed medical treatment.

Although he had already prepared his winter clothes before the departure, Walter did not expect the first snow of the winter to come so quickly.

According to the original plan, by the time the first snow fell in the middle of the Tilling, they were already in the territory of the middle Tiling, enjoying a triumphant dinner in the castle or manor of one of the lords.

It's a pity that all this is just fantasy.

The meeting place of the two sides was not chosen, the whole battlefield is only so big, how many places can be selected, the two sides simply found a place not far from the camps of the two sides, and had a friendly meeting.

It was said that it was a friendly meeting, but Claire felt that the meeting was not friendly at all.

As soon as they came up, the nobles showed their professional cultivation one after another, and they couldn't wait to give each other a dismount.

After that, as Mohr and Baron Walter talked alone, the nobles below were eager to draw their weapons and start fighting with red eyes.

For no other reason, one side of the Watch Alliance occupies the territory that originally belonged to the other party, and many of the families of the nobles are still in the hands of the Watch Alliance, and it is too much to expect the two sides to show the grace of the nobles.

During this period, some people also showed very obvious hostility towards Claire, although Claire did not know the other party, but guessed with his toes, he knew that the other party should be the former owner of a certain territory he occupied.

Although the overall atmosphere was a bit tense, some simple information exchanges were still made, such as who had conquered whom's territory, and whose family was in whose hands.

Originally, Claire was expecting several nobles who were hostile to him to come and question him, so he bargained for a sum of money and returned the worthless captives to the other party, but unfortunately the other party seemed to know that he was going to extort money, and did not take any action, which made Claire regretful.

As the brief meeting between Moore and Walter ended, no one knew what the two men were talking about, but the two of them actually chatted shoulder to shoulder, and each sent someone to the camp, as if to report the appearance of a banquet here.

Claire was a little dumbfounded, isn't it child's play that the nobles of this world are fighting, the two sides are still tense one second, and the next second they can actually drink and chat like friends.

Claire saw a nobleman loyal to Count Marcus and, after drinking some wine, put her arms around a nobleman of the Watch Alliance, complimenting him on a good job.

When he heard about it, he realized that it was the nobleman of the Overwatch Alliance, who had captured his old rival's territory and accidentally killed the other party's family, which made him extremely happy.

After all, if people are miserable and see someone worse than themselves, but in comparison, they seem to be less miserable, and they will inevitably feel relieved.

After three rounds of drinking, just when Claire had been worried, afraid that the armies of both sides would suddenly appear and serve this group of nobles in one pot, I don't know who had drunk too much and proposed that everyone have a friendly exchange.

This obviously unreliable suggestion has actually been responded to by many people, which makes Claire start to doubt life a little.

Soon, a small ring was built in front of everyone's eyes, much to Claire's amazement.

What I know is that the nobles of the warring sides meet, and I don't know which nobles think it is to form a winter tour together.

As someone affirmed that they were friendly and don't hurt the peace, soon someone in the ring was gone.

However, as a nobleman, they are also lords, and it is obviously very faceless to end up in person.

The first pair ended up with the knights under the command of the two nobles who were the most tense at the beginning of the meeting.

The strength of the two knights is not weak, they both have third-order cultivation, and they can't tell the difference between them in the ring for a while.

This scene made Claire a little envious, what is a real nobleman, look at others. Even if the people present are just small barons, the bottom of the entire aristocratic system, but the professionals seem to be worthless in front of them.

Look at Claire again, her subordinates, well, if you don't count the small mercenary group, you can't even find a third-order professional under your subordinates. I want to be like others, and throw the third-order professional as a tool to consume and fight in the ring, I don't know when.

Originally, Claire felt that her development speed was not slow, but now she was a little uncomfortable, compared to others, he was a nobleman, a nouveau riche feeling.

Like Claire, there is no taste in the heart, and Bart.

As the leader of the Agni Mercenary Group, most of his subordinates are ordinary people, and professionals can be mixed up as small cadres in his mercenary group. Originally, in Three Rivers City, I saw a lot of nobles, and I met Claire, a strange person, and felt that the strength in my hands should be not much different from that of a baron, but now I know that it is completely different from what he thought.

Seeing Bart's gloomy face, Norman on the side patted him on the shoulder and comforted him softly.

"Don't think about it, the baron who can send a third-order knight to fight is not weak among the barons, and the family of Beihu does not only have one territory, you are still a little useful."

Bart chuckled angrily and glared back at Norman. "Is that a consolation to you?"

"Nope." Norman shrugged, a look of indifference. "I'm just telling the truth, you know, in the kingdom, there is not much between title and power. The first baron of the kingdom has a territory and sphere of influence that is several times larger than that of Trois-Rivières, but he is only a baron.

A knighthood is just a name, and generally speaking, the expansion of the nobles' territory is much easier than the promotion of the title. It is not a problem for a baron to expand his territory dozens of times, but if he wants to be promoted to an earl, it is difficult, and he may not have such an opportunity for several generations.

Knighthood is not the same as strength, and this is not just a joke in aristocratic circles. ”

Norman's words, which seemed to be addressed to Bart, were actually addressed to Claire, because when he spoke, his eyes were firmly fixed on Claire.

Claire nodded slightly at Norman, thought in her heart for a moment, still a little unable to comprehend, and asked the question in her heart.
