Black Iron Crown

Chapter 271: Easy to win

The morning of April 20th, the twenty-third year of the Empire.

Mecalon City has recovered from the previous war. The residents were not harmed under the protection of Reiner. After another month, all the citizens living here were restored. As it was, but also accepted that his owner had already changed one.

The upgraded main fort of Mekalong City is white, and it looks majestic in this snowy silver-clad world, just like an indestructible fortress in a heroic epic.

Reiner’s army was constantly gathering towards Mecalon City from Fort Morand and other places, and a group of neatly organized and powerful soldiers, armed with knives and guns, merged into Mecalon City like a stream.

In order to control the entire huge territory before, Rainer divided his troubled pairs into small teams to garrison them in various castles. Even so, it is impossible to have garrisons in every castle.

At this time, Rainer’s warehouse in Mecalon City was full of gold and silver treasures. In the previous war, Rainer scoured the castles almost three feet away.

It is conceivable that hundreds of families have accumulated over the years. Although there are not many pure gold coins, there are definitely a lot of other types of property. If all of them are sold, they can sell at least seven to eight thousand gold coins.

And this wasn't even considered the spoils on the battlefield. Even if it was divided into vassals, partly to the knights and partly to the soldiers, Rainer himself only took 40%, and there were more than 800 sets of chain armor.

And there are not many damages in it, because at that time Rainer was in a sneak attack state, and the enemy soldiers were hacked and killed by his army before he could put on the armor. The four hundred sets of full-body chain armor and the four hundred sets of half-length chain armor were the largest. The parts are all intact.

If these were sold to the royal family, it would definitely be another big windfall.

Leaving aside these for the time being, although he has brought the entire territory under his control, after all, this is such a huge territory, and it is obviously unrealistic to be able to act like a finger arm like the one in Fort Merland.

His current military strength can't do this at all. Although the relatives of the Morland family have begun to manage each village one after another, there are still problems in some areas.

For example, Lena killed a group of knights who were exiled before. Some of them were unwilling to leave here. After losing the beacon, they still committed crimes here, even relying on force that the Celena garrison could not take care of. The place is robbed and robbed.

Reiner knows all these things, but for the time being, he has nothing to do with them. The only thing he can do to his best benefit is to bring the Twalimburg, which covers an area of ​​80,000 square kilometers, into his rule.

In five days, the teams stationed in various regions regrouped in Micalon City.

The main fort is located in the center of Mecalon City, and such a city will have a relatively large central square in the center, which serves as a place for gathering leaders to declare laws or execute someone in public.

And now, this place has become a gathering point for the army.

Quite a few residents came to the center of the city without any problems and began to quietly watch these meticulously formed troops.

"Tsk tusk tusk... The Earl's army is so beautiful, no wonder he can defeat the previous Earl Zhebo!"

"Yeah... I don't know when Lord Earl plans to conscript. I heard from the military masters who came to my shop to buy things. Their salary can be as much as five coppers a month!"

"Five coppers!"

The people around him suddenly exclaimed that five bronzes are definitely not a small amount, and they are definitely high salaries even in a big city like Mecalon City.

"Yes! You know that my son has practiced riding and archery since he was a child. I also sold the 300 acres of land that my grandfather left for me, bought him a horse and a sword, and waited until Lord Earl conscripted. Just send him in..."

This citizen's clothes looked more decent, and he looked like a real family, otherwise a war horse would cost at least five gold coins, and ordinary people would not be able to afford it for ten lifetimes of struggle!

But even so, after paying such a price, his face inevitably showed a touch of pain.

Some children shuttled back and forth between the people's legs, looking at the tall and strong soldiers who looked like beasts in human form, exclaiming in waves.

Reiner stood on the upper part of the castle, looking at the situation below through a small window in the study.

The more he looked at his own army, the more he felt proud. The sergeants who were full of fierce aura all over the body, not to mention, just by looking at the ordinary soldiers, he could feel what kind of combat power the body under their armor contained.

After a month, the citizens had a great affection for these soldiers who had a fierce tone but were kind to others, so when they left the castle under the leadership of Baron Leyland, everyone was enthusiastically sent off, looking forward to it. So they can return in triumph.

The soldiers went all the way south, and finally reached the periphery of the walls of Twarinburg two days later.

"Master Baron, we have arrived!"

Baron Leyland stretched out his hand to build a pergola on his forehead, looked at the gate of the confined castle, and at the towering arrow tower on the wall, he couldn't help but shook his head.

Heart said: "It seems that Logan's intelligence is not wrong at all, because the inheritance rights of the territory have been messed up like this? Even the soldiers on guard have not arranged it!"

That's right, there was not even a soldier on the towering arrow tower of Fort Twarim, and the entire castle looked lifeless.

With a sneer at the corner of his mouth, Baron Leyland waved his hand and said to the attendant beside him: "Order to go down, take advantage of the enemy's defense, immediately erect all the ladders! We are going to climb the city wall quietly!"

Although in his heart he despises the ineffective sons of Count Twarin, he has always been cautious and never asks it to be big~lightnovelpub.net~ No matter what he does, he must go all out.

The soldiers lowered their voices carefully and put the ladders one by one on the edge of the city wall.

"Be siege the city! Remember to keep your voice down, and don't be spotted by the enemy!" said Baron Leyland.

The soldiers jumped onto the wall without any resistance. When all the troops reached the wall, Baron Leyland climbed up and walked into the castle along the steps of the wall.

"who!"

When they got here, someone finally spotted them. The guard at the gate of the main fort saw them shouting loudly, then drew the long sword from his waist, and shouted at the open door: "Enemy attack! An enemy is coming!" "

However, as soon as his voice fell, he heard only a sharp noise, and then he became a hedgehog, with crossbow bolts all over his body, at least not less than twenty.

Sir Leyland looked at the main fort gate that had not yet been closed, and sighed that the other party's guard was lax, and shouted at the soldiers under his command: "Take advantage of this now! All rush in for me! Destroy all the enemies!"
