"And...how dare he kill a lord? This is a provocation to all nobles, and all nobles will hunt them to death!"
"It seems...there is indeed a huge conspiracy."
Aaron thought of the premonition he had when he tried the spirituality of darkness last time, and suddenly felt that there was a trace to all this.
"There is not much benefit in killing me... I don't have many enemies either, the remnants of the Davis family, or..."
He looked in the direction of Sotos Castle, with a look of sadness in his eyes.
…
A moment later, on the threshing floor.
Aaron was fully dressed in military uniform, holding his sword and looking solemn.
"My Lord Baron?"
Ba, who was wearing leather armor, was looking forward to this scene and felt a little dazed for a moment.
After the last war, he hadn't seen Aaron like this for a long time.
“The Sheriff’s team, including the guards, is only over 30 people, which is totally not enough!”
Aaron had a solemn look on his face and said loudly: "Issue a recruitment order, one adult man from each family, totaling one hundred people!"
It was actually difficult for small feudal lords in ancient times to raise many retired soldiers.
For example, Sotos Castle only had about a hundred people standing there, but now it occupies the entire Green Forest and has only expanded to several hundred people.
The guards in Aaron's previous territory had always been made up of veterans from his own team who were willing to move over, plus some recruited locally, which amounted to more than thirty people.
But at this time, knowing that there is a huge conspiracy, it is natural to go all out!
After summoning hundreds of militiamen, there will be no wandering thieves in the entire Green Forest who can be forcibly eaten. If there are, they are not thieves, they must be lords!
The reason why conspiracies are conspiracies is that they cannot see the light!
"Yes, sir."
Although Eight Fingers was a little confused, he still went down to deliver the order.
Not long after, a huge group of people began to gather.
When he walked out of the manor, Aaron, who still had some spirituality left, felt a gaze on him.
He looked in one direction and saw no one, but there was a private house. Without thinking about it, he pointed his riding whip and said: "Go and surround that place, arrest everyone and throw them into prison. Wait until I come back!"
"Eight fingers, lead the way!"
"yes!"
Eight Fingers looked solemn, as if he was back in the army again, and the group of people drove in a certain direction.
…
A valley.
The tall wild wolf was fondling a crossbow.
These crossbows were so well made that they could only be seen in the military in the past, and he had three of them!
Not only that, you can see that his men all have leather armor and their weapons are also very sophisticated, fully reaching the level of elites in the regular army.
With this kind of lethality, even if there are only a few people, they are still enough to fight the Baron Guards!
Not to mention, it was still an ambush!
Last night's attack was originally a bait. They deliberately left blood stains on the road to guide the lord into a trap!
"Pay attention later. After the opponent enters the ambush circle, all three crossbows will be aimed at the noble master!"
The wild wolf laughed ferociously: "After killing each other, we will all get a reward, which is enough to buy a large farmland in the south and enjoy retirement!"
"Don't worry, boss!"
A one-eyed dragon also held a crossbow and said excitedly: "With this, didn't we grab those caravans whenever we wanted?"
"Still fighting, after finishing this vote, we have to leave this hellish place."
The wild wolf is very sober, and even understands that he is not a wolf, but a vicious dog, and he will bite whoever his master tells him to bite!
"But...it's not bad to be able to kill a noble lord."
He licked his lips, a bloodthirsty look on his face.
"Boss, it's not good!"
A person ran from the distance, and it was their scout - Quick Legs Rosen. As he ran, he shouted: "The noble is here, but he has brought more than a hundred people!"
"Oh shit!"
The wild wolf swore: "That little cub is really afraid of death!"
He thought for a while and said unwillingly: "Abandon the trap, let's retreat! There will be another chance in the future!"
"Boss..." One-Eyed Dragon was a little unwilling.
"I cooked one pot of rice and ten pots of people came to eat. Even if there are traps, it's useless..." Wild Wolf said with some sadness.
His mind was finally clear, and he knew that he was not enough to kill the other party.
Even if two are exchanged for one or even three are exchanged for one, the opponent can still pile them up to death.
Moreover, since the other party was so alert, he might have discovered something.
…
Aaron led a large army and asked the scouts to lead the way, and they saw a small valley.
"Sir, the enemy is in the valley!"
Eight Fingers bowed and said: "There is a camp there."
"Send someone to go in and take a look. In addition, let people search the surrounding area."
Aaron was right at the mouth of the valley, but he didn't go deep and said indifferently.
After a while, Ba Zhi came back with a very ugly expression: "There is no one in the valley, but some arrangements were found outside the valley, which may be a trap..."
Speaking of this, his forehead could not help but be covered with cold sweat.
If the baron hadn't summoned so many people and entered with a team of troops, he might have died here today!
"Where is the wolf's escape direction?"
Aaron asked.
"It should be near Knight Yiman's emerald collar." Bazhi observed the footprints and other traces and was very sure.
"It just so happens that Knight Yiman still owes me a favor. Release the raven and let him mobilize the militia to cooperate in the encirclement and suppression!"
If the favor is not used, it will become invalid upon expiration. Aaron doesn’t care much about an Iman knight and directly gives the order.
He plans to catch the opponent in one fell swoop this time. If Knight Iman is not strong enough, then he will use the pendulum method and perform divination again. He can always catch the opponent!
…
Three days later.
Knight Yiman was worthy of being an old man in this territory. He summoned many hunters to help, and finally let Aaron stop the wild wolf bandits outside a mountain.
"Your Excellency Baron, do you want to attack by force?"
Looking at a small hill surrounded by hundreds of militiamen, a man who looked like a hunter asked.
They were sent by Knight Iman, and they had previously ordered to obey Baron Aaron's orders.
"Thanks to the help of Knight Iman, and the wild wolf thieves are extremely cruel, and the attack has caused some damage..."
Aaron looked at the wind direction and the vegetation topography of the hill, and sneered: "Give me the order to set fire to this place!"
Hundreds of people worked together to quickly build an isolation zone, then lit torches and started setting fire to the mountain.
Mountain.
"Even if I die, I will bite off a piece of their flesh!"
The wild wolf who was forced to the end of the road howled unwillingly, and suddenly his expression changed: "This is..."
"Fire...the enemy sets fire!"
The one-eyed dragon screamed, suddenly lost his weapon, and ran down the mountain.
He didn't want to be burned alive or smoked to death, it would be too painful.
Looking at this scene, the wild wolf felt that his last wish was shattered, and he couldn't help but howl in despair...
