"I, the Kakaser family, would rather die than surrender. We must defend the honor of our ancestors and the dignity of the nobility..."
A middle-aged man with a fat belly in a Chinese suit said righteously, and a gloomy man next to him glanced at it and said loudly.
"He killed Count Hongfeng, but he didn't take action against the orphan of the Hongfeng family. You can sacrifice your life to defend the honor of the family and the dignity of the nobility."
The fat noble's face did not change at all after hearing this, and he continued.
"But when there is a life-and-death crisis for the family, I can't just care about my own emotions, I must put the survival of the family as the first priority.
I choose to endure the humiliation and bear the burden. I know you will say that I am timid, and I know that some people will say that I am weak.
Since I have done it, I will bear all the infamy, everything... for the sake of the family!"
Everyone was speechless. After a long silence, one person spoke up.
"Ahem, stop talking nonsense, tell me, what should we do?"
After hearing this, everyone looked at Viscount Lassen and fell into silence again.
"Even the knights sent by the royal city are no match, let alone us."
"They were just cheating, the knights of the royal city were just tricked, and the commander was too stupid.
Their real strength is far from that strong."
One person suddenly said in dissatisfaction, and the others glanced at him mockingly. He was keenly aware of the ridicule in their eyes, and immediately became furious.
"Isn't it?"
"You said he was cheating, then you can see how he cheated. You don't need two knights, just cheat and destroy five knight squads."
The man said disdainfully.
"Stupid guy, if he can cheat and destroy the knights in the royal city, he can cheat and destroy us.
Oh, there is no need to cheat, even if we are facing each other head-on, we are no match.
If you are not convinced, you can lead a team to verify it yourself, I will not stop you."
The man's face immediately turned red when he heard this, and he was extremely angry, but he was speechless.
"Can't we ask the Royal City to send more troops? Two knights of fifty people are not the strongest force in the Royal City.
At worst, we will dedicate Red Maple City to him."
"Imperial City?"
Viscount Larsen, who had always been quiet, sneered.
"The two knights are the strongest force that the royal city can send. Now that the Northern Empire's army has arrived at the border of the kingdom, Marquis Morse has already transferred his elite troops to the front line to join the battle.
At this time, he just wanted to stabilize Mo Lan, stabilize the Projector, stabilize the kingdom, and prepare to fight the Northern Empire with all his strength.
Didn't you see that Mo Lan is already an earl? The great Earl of Jingshui.
Directly granting him the title of earl and enfeoffing the territory of Red Maple City, isn't it just to recruit Mo Lan and use us as guns to stop Mo Lan's footsteps?
Are you willing to be used as a gun and die at the hands of Mo Lan?"
The room fell into a dead silence, and after a long time someone spoke slowly.
"Didn't another Earl's heir die in Mo Lan's hands?"
"Hmph, the count is not afraid of Mo Lan, do you think you are not afraid anymore?
Or do you think the earl will protect you?"
"Morse used me to block his gun. I have given up hope in the Kingdom of Morse.
You can do whatever you want, but I will definitely leave anyway. I have relatives in the empire. When the time comes, I can bring my force and wealth with me and I can still restore the glory of my family.
Which of you has a greater hatred for Mo Lan than I do? It is the most stupid thing to persist and wait for death even though you know you are not your opponent. It is only worthy of being an example for other families to educate their children."
Viscount Lassen said slowly. After he finished speaking, the others were silent for a moment before speaking up.
"I'll go with you. I'm going to Wangcheng. I don't want to stay in Hongfeng anymore.
Those projectors hold a ridiculous idea that everyone is equal.
I just killed a few slaves and provoked a lot of projectors to administer so-called justice.
I can't stand it anymore."
"A large part of the projectors are relatively normal. Are there only some of these projectors who uphold the concept of equality for everyone?"
"Huh? A part, no, only a part of them practice this idea. All other projectors have this idea, but they just don't practice it with actions."
"No matter what their ideas are, the real trouble is the ones who practice them..."
"You fart!"
This nobleman seems to have been wronged.
"There are indeed only a small group of projectors who practice it, and they are basically no match for me.
But as soon as they die, revenge will come the next moment, and other projectors who did not practice this concept will rush forward shouting slogans.
If you can't defeat this group of shameless projectors, just call in others. If you kill one, ten more will appear in the blink of an eye!
I also agree to leave."
After the nobleman finished speaking, some noblemen nodded in agreement.
"Okay, don't say there are so many people. We must leave, but how.
I just left like this because I was unwilling to do so, and my family would not allow me to be humiliated like this.
Even if I want to leave, I must leave a deep enough impression on these shameless projectors."
"I agree, they must understand the anger of the nobles!"
At this moment, Viscount Larson didn't say anything, he just knocked on the table silently.
"food!"
Viscount Larsen showed a sneer.
"Don't they say that everyone is equal? Then I want to see how equal and unequal they are. We will work together to close all the grain stores and block all the grain stores coming to Red Maple City."
"Okay, this is easy. In addition, I suggest taking away all our industries.
If this happens, the entire Red Maple City will be completely paralyzed."
"I have no objection to what you said, but the losses are too great. I suggest taking away all the property of those untouchables and common people.
We have to leave anyway, so why not plunder the entire Red Maple City, leave with a huge amount of property, and change the land to once again create the glory of the family."
There was greed in this cold man's eyes.
"But our actions will definitely attract the attention of the projectors, and they will not allow us to plunder the entire city."
"Then come here secretly. By the time they find out, it will be too late."
"If they find out, they will be so angry that they may directly use violence to solve the problem.
Just like we always have."
One person said bluntly.
"Then let's go. Before we start, we will leave with the property, take away the property, leave the shell behind, and then transfer it away without plundering any property.
What can they do if they are angry? On the contrary, I just want to see their incompetent and furious look.
That will be my best drink!”
Viscount Larsen sneered.
"I want the entire Red Maple City to completely collapse and become chaotic to practice my family's migration.
I really want to see what Mo Lan's expression will be when the time comes. I really want to see what he will do when he faces the mob?
Have they all been killed?”
"Wouldn't this just satisfy Marquis Morse's plan?"
