Dozens of men and horses, controlled by Hadi's army.

But the young nobleman did not.

After removing his leather armor and weapons, he was left alone.

This is the dignity of the aristocracy.

Hardy stood on a high place, looking at the forest farm in the distance, watching the thirty heavy riders leave, and he shook his head helplessly.

"Why don't you leave some people in control of the farm?" Hardy let out a long sigh and said to himself, "How can anyone surrender immediately and sincerely as soon as he is defeated?" ”

At this time, the young man came over and said with a sarcastic smile: "The Holy Maiden Sect has long lost the bravery of the past, and now they are just a group of cowards. It should be your idea to attack the forest farm. ”

Hardy naturally wouldn't admit it, and said with a smile: "I don't have the ability to order my employer to do things." ”

"Then their change doesn't make sense." The young nobleman looked very proud, he raised his head and said: "The whole Jeanne family is full of cowards, even the old lady Honorine, she is just screaming loudly, and she is strong on the outside. ”

Hardy glanced at the young nobleman with some surprise and asked, "Is this your own judgment, or is it referring to other people's opinions?" ”

"Is there a difference?" The young nobleman asked rhetorically.

"Yes, if it's your own judgment, you're a genius." Hardy said with a smile: "If it's based on other people's opinions, it's just ordinary people." ”

"What if it's a genius?"

Hardy laughed: "I don't allow such a genius to continue to threaten the Jeanne family, so I feel that it is better to kill you now, lest you grow up and become a dragon." ”

As he spoke, Hardy drew the sword he had worn at his waist.

The young nobleman was startled and immediately shook his head: "I listened to the elders in the family. ”

Hardy unsheathed his sword and said, "I know." ”

"Then you still ......"

"Scared, your face is so proud, looking at me and wanting to hit someone."

The young man listened to it with a pain in his head: "Are you a nobleman, how do you do things so awkwardly." ”

"What's your name?" Hardy asked.

"Galen Clovis."

Hardy smiled: "The name is good, but the ability is not good." Who told you to take people out in such a hurry? ”

"Second brother."

"Then he wants to harm you, don't you even see this?"

"This ...... No way! Galen's expression was very entangled, he felt that what Hardy said was reasonable, but he also felt that it was unlikely: "Second brother has always taken good care of me!" ”

Hardy smiled and didn't discuss the matter again.

Discord plan, one sentence is good, and more words are wrong.

If the person is deceived, he will make up reasonable reasons in his mind.

At the same time, he no longer paid attention to Galen, but said to Rogge next to him: "Take fifty people and go to see the forest farm, the workers inside dare to resist, or do not obey the dispatch, and there will be no mercy." ”

Rog nodded repeatedly, then mounted his horse, ordered fifty soldiers with whom he was on good terms, and set off.

Hardy sighed: "I don't know who Victor's military knowledge learned from!" Where they were defeated, they were reluctant to send troops to occupy it. ”

The more Galen Clovis next to him thought about it, the more wrong it became, and he couldn't help but ask again: "Is someone really trying to make a fool of me?" ”

Generally speaking, the defeat of the nobles will not be much of a problem, unless they are really unlucky and die under the arrow, otherwise they will be captured, and then their reputation will not be good-looking, and it will also affect their status in the hearts of their elders.

Hardy sighed: "Actually, as long as you are smarter, you can see that the Rangna family is going to be serious." From the fact that they are willing to hire me, it is a proof that now that even the forest farm is occupied, no one should doubt the determination of the Jeanne family anymore. And in this case, the first one to come out and fight with Jeanne's family is definitely an unlucky guy. ”

Galen's eyes widened wider and wider, as if he couldn't believe it.

He thought of a lot of things himself, for example, the second brother usually likes to let him be in the limelight, and for example, it is obvious that the forest farm was robbed of such a big thing, the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother are just screaming loudly, and no one is willing to bring troops out.

So that's what happened?

Galen's face was contorted.

Seeing him like this, Hardy said: "You write a letter and tell your parents, just say that I want to ransom, how much, look at it, don't bully people too much." ”

Galen glanced at Hardy and nodded, "Okay, I'll write!" ”

Soon after, one of the captives was released, and he was responsible for returning with the paperwork to the head of Clovis's house.

On the other side, Rogge soon led people to reoccupy the forest farm.

Sure enough, as Hardy expected, someone inside actually encouraged the workers to lower the angelic flag of the Holy Maiden and re-hang the lion flag.

Therefore, such a thing as occupying a stronghold requires a big stick to wait.

In the evening, Hardy waited for the messenger of the Clovis family.

He brought a chest of gold coins and a box of gems.

The total value should be around 400 gold coins.

"You're worth a lot." Hardy patted Galen on the shoulder and smiled, "At least in your father's eyes, you're worth a lot." ”

Four hundred gold coins, a lot.

It was indeed too much to ransom Galen and dozens of miscellaneous soldiers.

But this just proves Galen's place in the hearts of Clovis parents.

At this time, Galen's face was full of smug light: "Of course, my parents have always doted on me the most." ”

"So, your brothers are even more angry. Will this duke's position be passed to whom? Big brother? Or are you the most favored of you? Hardy patted Galen on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "If I were your eldest brother, I would set up an ambush on the road when you came home." If you die, will I have a greater chance of inheriting the duke's title and territory? ”

At this point, Hardy used the Aura of Fear.

Galen listened to Lu Sen's compassionate words, and then looked at his face that was obviously very handsome, but with obvious dark power, and his heart was furious.

I don't know if I'm afraid of Hardy or my brothers.

Seeing Galen's stupid look, Hardy patted the other party's shoulder again and said, "I'm just scaring you, it's unlikely." Okay, now that the ransom has arrived, you can go back. ”

In fact, now Galen didn't want to leave, he looked at the already dark sky, and estimated the time, if he wanted to return to the royal city, it would be late at night.

If there is an ambush and assassination, there may be a real problem with yourself.

But it's not a matter of staying here.

In the end, fear prevailed, or rather the desire to live, and he begged Hadi, "Can you let my army spend the night here tonight?" It's too late, and it's inconvenient on the way back. ”

Hardy was slightly stunned: "Wait, what do you mean by that?" ”

"Literally."

Hardy smiled: "You can trap both of us with this sentence, understand?" ”
