"Hattings." Jiang Yuan thought in his heart, the other party was obviously the leading representative of the nobles of Lanhai County, combined with the news that the two cities had been ransacked, this old marquis and Estes had most likely become allies in some way.

If the other party is willing to think of himself as a subordinate, then the level of trouble will increase a little, because Estes is more protective of his shortcomings, and if he wants to deal with it properly, he needs to show his own value.

With a flash of purple-black light, the blonde boy appeared, took out a silk bag from Jiang Yuan's pocket, turned around and threw it to the old marquis, which contained the spices and high-quality salt needed for a wild meal, the latter from the county of Tius.

Hattings didn't think anyone dared to do anything here, after all, there were still his own 20,000 troops stationed outside the city, and when he opened the silk bag, his face instantly darkened.

"I thought you'd like it." Jiang Yuan said with a little regret.

"It's a bit stingy as a gift." Hattings suppressed his anger, this is no less than a provocation, Blue Sea County is the largest producer of old salt, supplying the entire northern part of the empire and even the central part of the imperial capital, the new salt is generally large in output, low in cost, and has a higher ceiling of high-quality products, which is a leap in technology.

The two sides are mortal enemies, and there will be no cooperation, because cooperation means the loss of monopoly and huge sunk costs, and reason is quite powerless in the face of interests.

Seeing that someone still wanted to speak, Estes interrupted, she was not here to listen to the quarrel.

"Okay, the winter hunt is coming, put other things aside for now, and give me a direct answer, how much support can the Berkshire nobles provide."

"The Sabins sent three thousand men, including eight hundred elite cavalry, twelve knights, and two hundred thousand stones of grain and grass." Little said in a deep voice, but his eyes were fixed on the blonde boy who had just appeared.

"We can make up 5,000 soldiers, 500 elite cavalry, and we are self-sufficient in armament, and we may have to rely on the general for food and grass." Charlemagne said that behind him were several viscounts and many lower-ranking nobles, and that the problem of food and grass was too much to solve.

"There are five thousand county soldiers, one thousand and two elite cavalry, and I only leave one-third to maintain order." Taishou said with a smile.

"There were three thousand men from the house of Tius, and two from the emperor." Jiang Yuan said lightly.

Little stood up abruptly, slapped the table angrily, and shouted, "Noel Tius, you're playing with the Sepin blood!" This is undying hatred, and I ask for a duel at the barb. ”

"I refuse." Jiang Yuan sat on the chair that Chelsea had moved, and the duel at the fortification refers to the fact that after a disagreement between the nobles, each of them sends troops to fight a frontal battle in the wilderness or plain without fancy, which is a tradition of the nobles of the Northlands.

"Can dolls use imperial tools?" Estes looked at the blonde boy with interest, the dolls looked like normal people, but their eyes were lifeless, they retained all their combat power and certain instinctive habits, and could complete simple orders without the knife wielding manipulating them.

"Yes." Jiang Yuan said calmly, "The dream of military music has an effect on people's emotions, and it has a good effect on the army. ”

Estes motioned for Litt to sit back and said directly, "Come and be my subordinate, Knorr, and I'll give you the position of lieutenant." ”

"General Estes!?" Little was shocked and angry.

"Sit down, Little, I don't need to dispute my decision."

The red pupil blinked, the general on the main seat was slender, his long blue hair and eyebrows were very unique, his chest was full, and his complexion was fair.

Then she kept quiet.

"I'm a baron, and sometimes I seek my own interests, and if you can tolerate that, then there's nothing wrong with that." Jiang Yuan's eyes are like a pool.

"Of course, I have always treated my subordinates well, so that they will win for me...... Stop it!! ”

Estes was still shaking his head and laughing, he didn't expect Jiang Yuan to suddenly burst out, the deceased marched out of his waist, and the killing intent was as soft and hazy as a stream under the moon, this was the most basic sliding forward slash, but the movements seemed to have been tempered thousands of times, smooth and natural while hiding sharpness, above the long knife, death finally turned into a cold cold light.

There was still a look of astonishment on Little's face, and then his body was split in two, and blood spilled, splashing the Marquis of Darkings next to him.

The military music puppet stepped back with red pupils, and in the next second, Jiang Yuan was kicked out by a round and slender leg and smashed straight into the wall on the second floor.

Estes's expression was gloomy, the back of the military boot on his left leg was completely cracked, and after the opponent completed the front slash, he immediately took advantage of the situation to defend the side, that is to say, the other party had been planning to kill Littlet for a long time, and if it wasn't for the cold ice covering his ankle, he might have his entire foot cut off.

She has no fluctuations in her heart about Little's death, this world is the weak, and dying can only mean that her strength is not strong enough, but Litt is a leading nobleman, and the consequences of being killed are extremely serious, she thinks she is strong, but the vast grassland outside the plug is connected to the ice sea in the north, and she is not going to catch rabbits.

"Give me a reason, Knor, you're too extreme."

"I'm Noel Tius, the general is the leader of the central faction, if I join your army, I will have to completely dissociate myself from the Tius family first, the price of killing Litt is enough for me to be stripped of my family name, and besides, before becoming your subordinate, I must give something back to the Tius family as a parting gift."

Jiang Yuan got up from the fragments of the wall, of course the other party would not use all his strength before confirming the sharpness of the deceased's march, and he did not have murderous intent, but even so, he was still in severe pain, and the unloading skills he used with a guard-level physique were not satisfactory.

Estes said in a cold tone, "You mean I didn't think it through when I invited you?"

"The general is not your apex, the commander is a good general."

Jiang Yuan patted the dust on the hunting dress.

Taishou wiped his cold sweat when he heard this, the general commands the soldiers, and the commander is good at commanding the general to fight, and their ability does not need to be exhaustive, because there are always subordinates to help solve the problem. This baron should be able to mix well in the court.

"You make a mess, you solve it." Estes sat back in place, and the eyes of the Black Courts were cold, the other party really didn't care about the life or death of the nobles.

"Lit's army was taken over by Viscount Charlemagne, the territory of Sabin was represented by Tius, the county soldiers, the independent nobles and the Tius family jointly sent troops to Sabin, and the wealth was five each, except for the three, the general and I each took one share, and the prisoners of the territory soldiers could be given to the general's headquarters."

"Yes." Charlemagne replied that the baron had not taken his opinion into account at all, and that the wealth of the Earl's family for four hundred years had a detrimental effect on the independent nobles, and he could not refuse it for them.

"Yes, but I want their caravan." Taishou is gearing up.

The crowd acquiesced.

"Yes." Akatomi suddenly spoke, "On behalf of my father, I agree with this decision. ”

Jiang Yuan smiled lightly, according to the rules of inheritance, the red pupil is indeed more qualified than himself to represent the opinion of Tius, the difference is not big, but it may be less troublesome.
