85_85536 Unlike the timid Jelic, Pelchberg's heart is extremely firm. He had already made up his mind that this war against the Hereford family was to be fought, and it had to be fought, and it couldn't be fought if it wasn't fought.

Therefore, hearing such a complaint from Count Jerich, Pelchberg was very uncomfortable.

In the beginning, he was still able to take into account the influence of the alliance between the two sides, and was more accommodating to Jerich. When speaking, it is mainly based on persuasion, education and enlightenment, and they are all soft-spoken and persuasive.

It's a pity that the more he does this, the more "arrogant" Jerich becomes. There is no sign of stopping at all, but it has intensified.

Under his influence, the morale of the coalition forces has been declining. Even the mercenaries of the Starlight Corps who were hired were slightly affected. Their morale has lost quite a bit.

In this situation, with the coalition forces pulling out and seeing that they were about to enter the battlefield, Pelchberg saw that the bastard was still "talking nonsense". Finally, he couldn't hold it anymore, reached out and grabbed him by the collar, and half-dragged him into the grove beside the road.

Of course, for this "rape" of Count Pelchberg, Jelic will not be like an ignorant little girl, shouting: "What are you doing, while struggling to resist" He knew that Pelchberg had something to say to himself. It may even be very useful words.

Although he was unhappy with Pelchberg's attitude. But after all, now they are grasshoppers tethered to a rope. In the face of the Hereford family, whose overall strength is more than a step stronger than them, they can't afford to do anything wrong with themselves.

Thinking this in his heart, Jerich endured it and did not say anything unpleasant. Just stared at Pelchberg and asked loudly, "What the hell do you want to do?!"

Forty-nine-year-old, gray-bearded Pelchberg has the physique of a brown bear and the fiery temper of a wild boar. It's not a coward at all if Jerich shouts at his throat.

In the face of his allies' loud questioning, Pelchberg was more angry than he was, and his feelings burned more fiercely:

"How dare you say such a thing?!How could I do this if it weren't for the nonsense you're talking here?!"

Hearing Pelchberg say this, Jelich was silent for a while, and then listened to Pelchberg continue:

"You will disturb the morale of the army and lower the morale of our soldiers. In this way, the war that could have been won will also be lost. Do you know what?"

After that, Jerich did not answer. But his expression, his slightly sarcastic smile, was able to express what was in his heart.

That's to know.

Yes, Jerichie did know that. And to say this when you know these truths, there is only one answer and reason.

That's what Jelic this bastard did on purpose.

He did it on purpose, and for a very simple reason. That is to reserve a back road.

That is, after losing the war with the Hereford family, he can talk well when he sees Baron Otto again.

Pelchberg is not a fool, on the contrary, quite different from his rugged appearance, he is very intelligent, so to speak. In this case, he quickly figured out what kind of doctrine was in the heart of this bastard.

After this, he smiled ten times more sarcastically than the other man: "What a fool you are, Jerich, a fool who thinks he is clever. ”

Jelich didn't speak, just sneered and looked at him without speaking.

"Do you think that as long as you soften a little, then that guy will let you go? Do you think that if you are a little clever and careful, people will not know?"

Speaking of this, Pelchberg paused for a moment, and his voice softened a little: "Yes, yes, maybe it will be like this in a short time.

Maybe to show his generosity, that guy will indeed spare your life in a short time. He will even show 'preferential treatment' to you in order to get more people to come to him—but the question is, is this reliable? Do you really think that a nobleman's promises, credibility, and guarantees are reliable?

Taking a step back, yes, that man, Otto von Hereford, was probably a reliable man. But what about his sons, his heirs, and his heirs, and will they be as reliable as Otto?"

"That's for my sons. Jerich's mouth spoke for the first time: "I don't believe that their Hereford family can come out with Otto's monster for generations." ”

"They don't have to produce that kind of monster in every generation, they just need to make sure that the next generation appears. Pelchberg continued to sneer at him and said, "What kind of man is that son of his, no one else knows, can you not know?"

Hearing Perchberg say this, Jelich was silent - yes, others can be indifferent to William's every move, but these "neighbors" of the Hereford family naturally can't be ignored. As for William, when the vast majority of the nobles in Mazovia held on to old information and regarded him as a cowardly and incompetent waste, Pelchberg and Jelic had already received the latest information.

In Circassian, William did not hide anything from others. This is mainly because he is not afraid of others to learn. Why don't you be afraid of others learning, mainly because the spread of technology in this era is very slow, and even stagnant.

The underdevelopment of transportation and information are equally underdeveloped, even if William wholeheartedly serves the people, and the Grand Duke selflessly gives away all the technology in his hands for free and makes it public, it may not be able to attract the attention of others. Not to mention that he didn't.

William believed that even if some of these things were looked at, they would only know what they were and not why. It's naturally good to draw a tiger from a cat, but it's more likely that a tiger is not an anti-dog.

So William was not afraid.

In fact, it is true that his two neighbors, Jelich and Perchberg, did send spies who had only taken a rough look. But this "probably" is enough to be frightening.

Whether it is agricultural reform or the formation and training of a new army. can make people come to a conclusion that "this person wants to do great things". And William and Xia Lumi practice swordsmanship, and those family heirlooms and fighting spirit will naturally not be done in front of others. However, the basic skills, as well as the physical training carried out together with the soldiers of the new army, are not hidden.

From this, one can also indirectly analyze the basic attributes of William himself. If you apply the amazing swordsmanship of his father, Baron Otto, and make a few discounts, you can basically get the size of William's own combat power.

That's it. Even in the presence of really big people, such as kings, popes or emperors, khans. William was still just a wretched creature with a little bit of territory, a little bit of power. But such a force, when confronted with Sandomits and Vitra, the two equally pitiful counties of the county, seemed overly aggressive.

"I ...... I once heard that the heir of Baron Hereford was not suitable to be a knight, he usually spent more time in his study, and he was very timid and could not ride a horse. It's like a joke. Jerich's words were hard to say.

He was greeted by Pelchberg's even greater sarcastic ridicule:

"You believe it when he says that—yes, indeed, every piece of intelligence before that has shown it. But the problem is that what is unfolding in front of us now is completely different from what is in the intelligence! I only believe my eyes!

What I saw with my own eyes was that that little bastard had trained a large number of standing troops in Circassia, and in just a few months, they had easily defeated several times the number of homeless people with this new army!

What's more, that little bastard doesn't like Anfen as much as his father. This intervention in the succession of the Count of Baudelaire is the best proof of this!"

"But......" Jelich tried to say a few words of rebuttal, but could not come out anyway.

"What are you still hesitating about?!What are you still worried about?!Yes, yes. Maybe your current cleverness will allow you to live two more days. Even if you die before Otto, you may survive for the rest of your life.

But what about your heirs? what about your sons? can you leave them to that bastard named William? the monster with great ambitions, the one with great military ability, the one who has completely inherited his father's swordsmanship?

You want them to be torn apart by that monster, and then chew up all the bones and swallow them?! It's going to die anyway. We, if we don't do anything, we will die sooner or later, either us or our sons, and our family will be doomed sooner or later!!"

Speaking of which, Pelchberg can almost be said to be in full swing.

After this, Jerich was silent for a moment, then shook his head slowly: "Of course I won't let this happen—but is it useful to fight?! Will it really work? Even if we defeat that man, can we still kill him?"

If we kill him, Otto will definitely kill us. In the whole frontier area, he wants to kill people, and no one can stop him! He will kill not only us, but also my son! And yours -- you don't know how much he thinks of this son of his! We make him an heir, and he will certainly make us heir!"

Speaking of this, Yelich's pupils dilated, and his body trembled involuntarily, presumably terrified to the extreme
