The wise man was captured in a small barn. He gave the owner of the barn three golden lions, asking him to keep it a secret, and agreed to pay ten more before leaving.
However, he did not expect that after hiding for only four days, the pursuers came to the door. The wise man wanted to escape from the roof on the ladder, but when he climbed up, he found that there were people outside the barn and he had been surrounded by troops.
Being pointed at by a group of archers with bows and arrows, the wise man finally had no choice but to come down from the roof in despair.
Afterwards, he was escorted in front of the female lord, and knelt with the other seven traitors captured a few days ago.
Many of these people were still begging the girl, willing to offer their property and even their fiefdoms, just to ask the female lord to spare their lives.
One person was still shouting loudly, "According to the ancient tradition of the West, you cannot kill us."
Miss Rabbit wondered, "Why can't I kill you?"
"As nobles we can pay the ransom and purchase our own freedom."
"Yes, yes." His words were echoed by everyone, and those people seemed to have found some life-saving straw.
Only the wise man who came last remained silent. The female lord glanced at him, then looked at the others, and said leisurely at the same time.
"That tradition is for prisoners of war, not traitors."
Those people's pleas for mercy suddenly stopped, and Miss Rabbit continued, "I can understand your fear of Solomon and the Wing Tribe army, but you once made an alliance with me.
"You made a sacred oath to fight alongside us and guard this land. I warned you of the consequences of breaking your oath."
"We know we were wrong. Please spare our lives. We can fight for you in the future and repay the mistakes we made."
"My daughter admires you very much. I even asked a carpenter to carve out your heroic figure when fighting the dragon and gave it to her as a toy. She kept holding it while she slept." A middle-aged nobleman also said.
The female lord couldn't help but feel a little shaken when she heard this, but when she looked up at Fabrice, Ivan and others, she found that they all looked indifferent, and even Pers had a stern look on his face.
Ferdinand also raised his head to glance at the sky, and then said to the girl, "It's time to take action, Lord Ilea."
Miss Rabbit nodded, her joy when she first caught these traitors had dissipated a lot.
But she also understood that she could not let these people go. Traitors were the most hated no matter where they were.
The reaction of everyone just now said it all. There were so many nobles present, and no one interceded for them.
And she also wanted to use the heads of these eight people to warn others, especially the new lords who joined the resistance, what would happen if they broke their oaths.
Only in this way can everyone work together when encountering a crisis next time instead of falling apart.
The female lord pulled out the duel pistol from her waist and said, "Do you have any last words? I can help you pass them on to your family."
The middle-aged noble who had just begged for mercy turned pale when he heard this, but he also knew that he would inevitably die this time, so he spoke after a moment of silence.
"Please, please tell my wife and daughter that I love them and it's all my fault. I'm too cowardly."
"I promise you your words will be taken."
After the female lord finished speaking, she raised her pistol, aimed it between the middle-aged noble's eyebrows, and pulled the trigger.
With a bang, the middle-aged noble's body fell backwards, fell to the ground, and lost his breath.
The execution method of the girl was quite novel in the eyes of the generals of the resistance army. It was clean and neat, and faster than beheading. The only drawback was that there were not so many bloody scenes to watch.
But this also demonstrates the kindness of the female lord. It is a foregone conclusion that Ilea will become the new Lord of the West, and everyone will be vassals of the Arias family from now on.
It is better to be loyal to a benevolent monarch than to serve a tyrant cautiously.
While everyone was thinking, the girl had already walked up to the second traitor, filling gunpowder and bullets while asking, "What about you, do you have anything to say?"
"Please tell my brother and two sons not to avenge me. You have made... a fair sentence. I have no complaints."
After the man finished speaking, he closed his eyes. Soon, he heard a familiar strange sound in his ears, and then his vision went dark and he fell to the ground.
Ilea continued to move forward, gunshots rang out from time to time on the hills, and the white smoke from the muzzle dispersed, giving people an unreal feeling of being half asleep.
Until the girl's footsteps stopped in front of the last person, the nobleman nicknamed the Wise Man raised his head. Unlike the others, his face did not show much regret, but was full of resentment.
"Don't be too happy too early. You just defeated Tristan, and you didn't really fight against the Wing Clan army.
"And those Wing Clan people also have many allies. Sooner or later you will taste the taste of failure, and your fate will be worse than mine..."
Miss Rabbit interrupted him rudely, "You have been hiding in the village for too long, and the news is too late. The Wing Clan army is finished, and there may be less than a thousand left out of ten thousand.
"Solomon's life and death are unknown, and the rest of the people have also fled out of the Western Territory. As soon as those Wing Tribe people entered the Western Territory, they were punished by God on Saturday, but it took some time for the divine punishment to take effect. This is why we have been
Things to do.
"The fact that they finally stayed in the Lake City shows that the divine punishment has become very serious. You could have seen victory if you persisted just a little longer, but you chose to betray your oath at this time.
"It's a shame you have such a nickname, why do you do such stupid things?"
After Miss Rabbit finished speaking, regardless of the wise man who was still in a daze, he pulled the trigger again.
It's good, I can carry one less person's last words.
After executing all the traitors, the female lord led the troops to continue advancing eastward. The other two armies, one led by Kamzi and the other commanded by Silver Pine, also made smooth progress.
The three of them chose different marching routes and agreed to meet at the ruins of Songshi Fort in half a month, so that they could basically recover all the land.
By then the female lord can also become a veritable Lord of the West.
But in Cornucopia, which is not too far away, the atmosphere in the city is completely different.
The Wing tribesmen who had followed Solomon on the expedition returned here overnight, and there were less than four hundred of them left.
It was less than half of Li Yu's previous estimate. In addition to the severe Newcastle disease, some people were not killed by the disease, but died from their own bloodletting.
After experiencing Saturday's divine power, these four hundred people had become frightened birds. They almost didn't stop along the way, and they were still in shock even when they flew out of the west.
