Black Iron Crown

Chapter 261: Last step

"Stop advancing now!"

Rainer saw the smooth offensive under the city wall and immediately issued new orders.

Although the military discipline of the soldiers under his command is very guaranteed, Rainer is still worried about what they will do to burn, kill, and looting. As a commercial city, the prosperity and wealth of Mekalong can be imagined.

Although Reiner has always emphasized the discipline of the army, he did not stipulate whether to obey the rules that are not one line at a time in the enemy-occupied area.

After all, Reiner has to bring this wealthy city that connects the northern and southern commerce into his subordinates. If the residents of the city are full of hatred for themselves, then it is clear that future rule will become very difficult.

The low horn sounded below the city wall, and the three long and one short trumpets, which symbolized the stop of progress, immediately resounded through the entire city wall.

"Stop! Stop everyone!"

As the commander-in-chief of the infantry, Sir Leiland naturally followed up on the wall. After hearing the trumpet, he immediately ordered the soldiers to stop and wait for the next order.

Rainer jumped off the horse, lifted the visor on the helmet with his hands, and climbed up the city wall from the ladder with both hands and feet, and the followers around him also walked up together.

The soldiers stood on the spot, panting lightly, holding weapons in their hands and looking back at Leiner.

The defenders who surrendered on the city wall were all under control. They knelt on the ground, most of them were torn off their clothes and **** by the soldiers. Only a few people still knelt on the spot and dared not move.

Walking on the city wall, Rainer didn't say anything immediately, but raised his thumb high and shouted at the soldiers: "Good job!"

"You are all good! For hundreds of kilometers of raids, you followed me without a complaint! Run from south to north, and then from north to south! We defeated countless enemies! You are my pride! I am proud of it! You are proud of it!" Rainer shouted loudly.

The soldiers also cheered one after another. They were indeed very tired recently, but at least Rainer didn't drive them as casually as a group of livestock like ordinary lords.

This feeling of being respected and praised is a kind of spiritual relief.

Of course, Leiner is not just a character who only draws big cakes for people. He hated those bosses who only knew how to draw big cakes and talk about ideals without talking about money, and they wanted wolfishness but only graze the employees.

Rainer believes that to be strong, you have to give them the best logistical support, the best training, eat the most nutritious food, and give their family the greatest glory, and let them have no worries.

Only in this way can they give Leiner 100% of their lives without complaint and 100% loyalty to him, because they know that no one except Leiner is really good to them, and no one will value them that way.

Rainer drew out his long sword, pointed at the towering castle faintly visible a few kilometers ahead, and shouted vigorously: "Ahead! Is our final goal! Where to conquer! We will win the final victory!"

"The first fifteen people who attacked the castle! Get the title of knight! Pick two rich villages as his beloved!"

"And all the fighters who participated in this battle! They will get a hundred acres of cultivated land for himself and his family! And anyone in his family has the right to hunt in any forest at will!"

"Oh!"

"Long live the earl!"

The soldiers suddenly burst into cheers. This was an unprecedented turnaround. Even if they were not among the top fifteen people, one hundred acres of arable land would be enough to make themselves and their family richer. .

Most of these soldiers are self-cultivators who are wealthy in their own right. After obtaining 100 acres of arable land, they can accumulate some and even become a small landlord. Even if they are not comparable to knights, they are definitely richer than self-cultivators.

Needless to say, the first fifteen people have directly reversed the fate of the family and transformed from a junior military class to the lowest noble and top military unit. This is an opportunity that countless families have not obtained for a hundred years of struggle.

Looking at the jubilant soldiers, Rainer showed a smile on his face and said: "But! I want you to strictly observe the military disciplines I set! No one is allowed to plunder the wealth of the citizens at will! Property in the castle I will give you 20%! After the battle is over, you will divide it up at will!"

"But if anyone dares to reach out to the citizens! Don't blame me for cutting your hands!"

Lena shuddered, his expression became serious, and his stern eyes scanned the soldiers from time to time.

The soldiers did not dare to disobey, and said one after another: "Yes, Lord Earl!"

"Very good! Target main fort! Go ahead!"

The soldiers quickly formed a formation under the organization of Sir Leyland, shuttled in a marching queue on a depressed street with no one, and rushed to the Lord's Fort of Mecalon City.

At this time, the city was full of rumblings, no one appeared on the receiver, only a pair of eyes followed the cracks of the doors and windows to peek outside.

After a burst of smoke dissipated, some courageous citizens opened the window or opened a crack in the door and leaned out to observe the situation.

"They... didn't rob!"

After a citizen confirmed the situation, he turned his head and said to his wife in disbelief.

His wife had collected all the valuable things in the house and put them on the table, and at the same time put her slightly beautiful face in black ashes, looking very embarrassed.

They were afraid that the army that broke through the city wall would kick open the door of their house and be fierce, not only strong but also killing, so they let their wives paint ugly, and then gathered all the property together and planned to give them to those. Soldier.

And their children were hidden in a place they believed to be safe.

But who knows, all the preparations have been prepared, but the terrible situation in their imagination has not happened, which makes them a little...stunned?

This is impossible ~lightnovelpub.net~ After confirming that the army had left, they relaxed and sat down slowly, leaning on the door.

The children did not let him out, they were afraid that the troops would return.

Because they had never seen an army like this before, and after breaking through the city, they didn’t enjoy plundering. Even the simplest extortion did not happen. In their hearts, only the envoys sent by the Holy Father could have such an army. Bar.

The soldiers left the residential area without any offence, and came to the lord's castle in Micalon City.

The main castle of Mecalon can indeed be said to have a magnificent bust, and the main body with a height of twelve meters looks quite awe-inspiring.

Looking at the castle gate close at hand, Reiner took a deep breath. This is the beginning of his great cause!

"Everyone prepares! Siege!" Rainer pointed at the city gate with a long sword, and dozens of soldiers slowly advanced with a siege cart.
