Three days passed, and the inhabitants of Winterdusk Castle began to recover from the terrible night and returned to the city in anger.

The skyrocketing fire and the dozens of corpses pulled out of the tower were reflections of that night by the residents, but that was behind them, life was the most important thing for the residents, and they were now relieved that there was no need to worry about an inexplicable firefight that would affect them.

Although the high wooden stakes at the gate of the city were full of corpses, some of them hung several on a single high wooden stake, which made the residents who passed by every day feel that the back of their necks was always cloudy. In particular, the corpse of the old butler they were very familiar with was divided into two parts, which made some timid people tremble, and they heard that several civilians who had been hired to carry the corpses had been seriously ill for a few days after they returned, and when they asked about the situation, they only shook their heads with pale faces.

But in the end, it was over, and the corpses were also taken down and buried in a large pit outside the city after hanging for three days and almost decomposing, leaving only the heads of these losers to be cut off and continue to hang on them, which was much better than seeing a large string of corpses every day.

Now the result is much better than the residents imagined, but it is a small-scale internal fighting, which has not affected the living conditions of the residents in the slightest, which can be regarded as a very stable kind of succession of lordship in the past dynasties.

While the inhabitants occasionally talk about the night and the eventual winner, Master Griezmann, and speculate about his feats of turning the tide, this is just a talking point, and life is what they need to worry about the most.

At this time, Gehr, who was already considered the new lord, was not in Winterdusk Castle.

"Stand back! Stand back! Explosives are planted......"

"They all retreated into the safe zone and began to count down to 10 and 9...... 1, 0, ignite the lead. ”

"Boom!"

A thunderous sound sounded from the cave ahead, and the ground trembled slightly, and one of the most smuggling gold mines in the area was blown up.

In the distance, Gehr sat on horseback and took out a sketch and put a cross on the sign of a mine.

"Let's go, go back. ”

Glema turned and led the group towards Winterdusk Castle.

Now that the mines in this area have been completely destroyed, and a patrol team composed of the knight camp and the city guard station will each patrol this area from time to time, there will be no problems here in the short term.

The reason why these mines were destroyed, instead of continuing to be used, is the result of Gehr and a few ore surveyors transferred from other mines after field investigation, this kind of mine is the miners secretly digging holes for secrecy, inside is tortuous and long, like a maze, and the mine is not convenient, the connection is only not suitable for large-scale ore mining branches, and the safety is not guaranteed, for Gehr is completely a chicken rib, simply destroy it is more convenient.

......

Back at Winterdusk Castle, the new butler, Miele, was already waiting at the gates.

Until that night, Miller was only the son of Miller Sr., the gardener of the Core Tower, and in a few years' time he would succeed Miller Sr. as the new gardener. But everything changed that night, and when most of the men were shivering behind closed doors, Miller had the audacity to stun a fleeing mercenary from behind with a flower pot with a flower pot, giving both Gel and Sophia a good image when it was brought up afterwards.

After Kevin's death, when Winterfall needed to elect another butler to handle all sorts of chores, Miller, who was familiar with Winterfall's people and had a good image of Gehr, was elected.

Standing at the gates of the city, Miller wore a somewhat wide butler's dress that made him look like a little monkey, not only shorter than the sixteen-year-old Gehr, but not even as much as Sophia, who was a year or two older than Gehr. However, the soldiers on one side did not dare to make fun of him, they knew that one day this dress would fit, and as long as Gehr could be a lord for decades, then as a new butler who had accompanied him from the beginning, this status was not comparable to that of these people.

"Your Excellency, a guest has come to you with your token. Miller greeted him and respectfully reported the news to Gehr.

"Where's the others?" Gehr thought for a moment, and knew that this should be someone sent by Tavron to deliver information.

"I've arranged for him to have a bite to eat in the kitchen for a while and take a break. ”

"Take me there. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Gehr waited for the messenger in the reception room, dressed in a wide cloak with a brim that hid his face in shadow, just like Tavron.

"Good day, sir. This is what Lord Tavron asked me to bring. The messenger saluted Gehr and handed the token and the letter to Miller, who took it and brought it to Gehr.

Gehr looked at the token and the secret note on the letter, which were consistent with the pre-agreement, and then pointed to the chair and motioned for the other party to sit down, and then opened the letter and studied it carefully.

Minutes and seconds passed, and it was nearly a quarter of an hour before Gehr closed the letter, closed his eyes for a moment, and the conversation began.

"Take off your cloak, there's no need to wear this here. ”

"Yes, my lord, as you wish. ”

The messenger took off her cloak, and she was a beautiful girl, probably less than twenty, but she always maintained a serious look on her face, which made her look more mature.

"There can't be any more mistakes with this information, right?" said Gehr's expression was smiling, but in the courier's eyes, Gehr was more like a beast entrenched in his territory, and the smell of blood was a reminder of how dangerous the person in front of her was, and if she didn't answer well, she would probably be devoured.

"My lord, this information is definitely the most accurate information available, and Tavren-sama is very sorry for the mistake last time. In order to make amends, Lord Tavron has already sent all his forces to delay as much as possible, and there will be absolutely no problem! Lord Tavron has also mobilized the first, third, and fourth squadrons of the Northern Army to come to support to ensure that nothing goes wrong. Although his face was a little pale under Gehr's coercion, the messenger's tone remained firm.

Gehr bowed slightly, and did not continue on the topic.

If all the information is provided to Gehr according to the facts, it is difficult to say that Gehr will not simply take refuge in Earl Carter's side under pressure, and Earl Carter must welcome him very much, after all, he is the heir of the orthodox Baron Colburnson, and he has mastered him, even if the royal family has no excuse to intervene, it is far more reliable than those relatives who want to get a piece of the pie.

Especially after Tavron used all his intelligence power to finally know the purpose of those people fighting for Colbornson's territory, he couldn't let go. However, the situation at that time was difficult to explain, and Tavron did not dare to act too rashly, for fear of causing huge losses to the prince's layout in the north. For this reason, Tavron chose to change the date of arrival of Earl Carter's private troops in the information he sent to Gehr, and did not mention the matter of the Seventh Squadron of the Northern Army, because he was worried that the pressure on Gell would be too great. As long as Gehr did not immediately take refuge with Earl Carter, Tavron would have plenty of time to see how the situation unfolded before making a decision.

Now that Gehr's internal troubles have been eliminated and he can concentrate on dealing with foreign enemies, it can be said that the situation has become clear, Tavron decisively used the authority given to him by the prince to mobilize three squadrons to support, which is to sell Gehr well and strengthen his confidence.

Of course, if Ghal fails to stop before the reinforcements arrive, Tavron can also use the strength of those three squadrons to counterattack Winterdusk Fort in the name of rescuing Gel or avenging Gel.

Now both sides know very well what this is all about, but the two sides are in a period of cooperation, and they both need each other, and this kind of thing can be said to be in the past with an excuse at the moment, and as for whether it will be pursued again in the future, it depends on the development of the situation.

"Has the person I want arrived?" said Gehr, moving on to another topic.

"The Lord is back at Wintertwilight this afternoon, and everything you need is ready. ”

"Good. ”

Gehr called Miller to his side and gave orders, and in a short time Miller brought over the paper and pen that Gel needed.

Spreading out the paper, Gehr wrote on it for a while, then looked at it carefully, and when he was satisfied, he folded it and handed it to Miller. Miller carefully sealed the paper into an envelope and stamped the opening of the envelope before handing the letter to the messenger.

"Give this to Tavren, and by the way, bring him a word, and come over immediately if you want, and don't wait for the expiration date, understand?" Gehr stretched back, leaned back in his high-backed chair, and looked at the messenger with an indifferent expression.

"Yes, I see. ”

"Okay, you go down, hurry up. Gehr glanced at Miller beside him, who knowingly took out a cloth bag and handed it to the messenger, which contained a few silver serflins.

"Thank you for your generosity. The messenger saluted, and followed Miller out of the reception room.

Now is just the beginning, Earl Carter and Tavron are just the front soldiers of the old aristocracy and the royal family, everything now can only be regarded as a tentative stage, this confrontation will not end in a short time, ten years, twenty years...... It may even continue like this, and the entire Colbenson Territory has become a huge whirlpool, and it is not easy to gain benefits from it, and if you join it, you may be swallowed by this huge whirlpool at any time, and Gell will inevitably bear the brunt.

But the interests are moving, not to mention that this is an interest that may dominate the lifeblood of the country, and there will only be more and more forces that will be pulled into the water, and whether they can support it to the bottom depends on their luck.

But Gehr had no intention of continuing to play with these people.

Gell stood up and opened the window, letting some of the dazzling sunlight into the room.

"It's time to get out of this pit. ”
