Listening to Earl Crick’s words, Sir Constance seemed to have heard something very ridiculous. With a smile on his face, he looked at him with mocking eyes and said, "I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you. Lord Creek!"

"Now the Merland family is facing a split. The lords of the royal family and the upstarts are no longer in agreement! Do you think they can dispatch a huge army like they did in the previous war to put down the rebellion again?"

"It's impossible, Lord Crick, I pray you don't be too naive. The royal family can't protect themselves now. Maybe they will have an internal war. How can they have the energy to support you?"

"Even if the royal family doesn't come! My son-in-law, Grand Duke Rainer of the Northern Grand Duchy will come to support me! He will never sit and watch my territory fall!" Earl Crick said angrily.

"Grand Duke Rainer?" Sir Constance said as if he had heard a huge joke, "Not to mention that your daughter led the army and caused a huge loss to Duke Rainer, and it was your daughter who posted it upside down. !"

"Do you think that under such circumstances, the Grand Guild of Rainer is willing to span more than 3,000 kilometers with an army to support you?"

"What's more, even if Grand Duke Rainer brings people here, can he save you? Don't be kidding, he will be left here!" Sir Constance's expression became subtle.

However, Earl Crick did not want to understand the meaning contained in this intriguing discourse.

"Stop talking, I will never agree! Go back, I don't want to embarrass you!"

"Well..." Sir Constance shook his head helplessly: "Since you are unwilling to accept my kindness, Earl Crick, then I have no choice but to truthfully convey your meaning to the adults!"

"Please!" Earl Crick said, suppressing the anger in his heart.

The conversation between the two fell apart, and Sir Constance once again left the walls of Fort Creek in a hanging basket.

On the same day, the siege army under the castle made its first exploratory attack. The archers climbed to the top of the well to suppress the city wall, and shot at each other with the archers on the arrow tower.

The soldiers also rushed towards the city wall along the wooden ladders and the planks of the well, but after a stalemate, they gave up.

After a round of offensive, the siege army paid the price of more than 100 people, and the defenders also lost more than 10 talents to repel it.

Now there is a certain reserve of arrows and stones in the castle. Once these war materials are exhausted, the battle will become extremely difficult and **** at the same time.

After tidying up the corpses left on the city wall, the defenders still watched the enemy troops under the city vigilantly to guard against their sneak attacks.

As for the corpses, they were transported to the castle for burial.

More than a month passed one after another, and the siege army launched a total of more than a dozen sieges.

The loss of the defending army reached more than 300 people, while the loss of the siege army was even greater. The serf conscript alone killed more than a thousand people.

June 2nd, 26th year of the Empire.

Three couriers from the south were welcomed in Mecalon City. They were couriers for help sent by Earl Crick.

During the day and night, they had to travel more than 60 kilometers every day, and they arrived at Mekalong City in a month and a half.

Even if they were one man and three horses, when they reached the northern border, there was only one half-dead horse left, and all the rest fell dead in the endless long-distance rush.

When Rainer received this request for help, two messengers had already fallen down, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

After reading the above content, Rainer's brows couldn't help but frowned. Although he had heard news that the surrounding lords were eyeing Fort Creek, he still didn't expect them to be so unscrupulous, and he dared to do it at this time.

Just after losing the battle on the battlefield, he immediately dared to act so excessively at the beginning, which really went beyond Rainer's expectations.

But soon, Rainer understood why they dared to make such a move.

It is nothing more than knowing the battles inside the imperial imperial house and confirming that the imperial family will not form a counter-insurgency army again, so that they dare to attack Fort Creek in such an arrogant way.

But even so, Rainer still doesn't regret that he clarified the contradiction between the two sides in front of everyone that day. If there is no foreshadowing of the day, how could he be the representative of all the royal lords now.

If you don't take advantage of the oppression of the royal lords by the upstarts to make a choice, and put the time until they calm down, maybe they won't make the same decision again.

But even so, Reiner was very frustrated with this letter. Now he has torn apart the royal family and the upstarts. Once he brings the army to Fort Creek, maybe they will lead the army to attack the royal lord. They.

Although this situation does not necessarily happen, Leiner must not pin his hopes on their character.

In this way, there is a dilemma before Leiner. If you go to Fort Creek, you will face a certain degree of danger.

But if you don't go to Fort Creek, then your father-in-law will face the danger of being wiped out, and the layout of where you are will be completely wiped out.

Therefore, it is difficult for Reiner to decide how to deal with it.

When he was in a dilemma, Frank entered Leiner's study and looked at Leiner silently.

Although she didn't speak, Reiner understood what she meant. He just sighed and said, "I understand what you mean, but I need to think about it. Besides, sending troops is not my decision alone..."

Hearing what Leiner said, Frank could only nod his head slightly, sighed helplessly and left Leiner's study.

After much deliberation, Rainer decided to send troops to Fort Creek.

In any case, it is only a matter of probability for the upstarts to take the initiative of the royal family, and if they do not go, Fort Creek will inevitably face the result of destruction.

What's more, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is his own father-in-law, even if he doesn’t take him seriously, if he is wiped out, others will think, what about a person who can’t even protect his wife’s clan? Can you assume the obligation of sheltering others?

So Rainer sent letters to all his vassals, asking them to gather in Mekalong City.

It was very annoying to order others to walk out of his castle when the ice and snow had just begun to melt. Even under such circumstances, Rainer's vassals were still ready to reach Makaron City.

June 17th, 26th year of the Empire.

After half a month passed, his vassals gathered in Makalong City.

When Rainer told them his thoughts, it caused an uproar in an instant.

It is nothing short of whimsical to cross three thousand kilometers to support Fort Creek.

It took more than three months for the counter-insurgents to reach Basen fortress. You can imagine how long it would take to reach the farther Fort Creek.
