After the affairs of the White Rock Territory were roughly settled, Allen left fifty cavalry in White Rock Town and returned to Qinghuang Town.
As soon as he returned to Qinghuang Castle, Antonio brought good news to Allen.
"You mean Jason?" Allen asked while tapping the table with his hand.
"Yes, Lord Baron, this time we went to Iron Stone Territory. We met Jason near the horse farm in Maicao Village, and on the way back we passed through Iron Stone Town on purpose. Sure enough, Iron Stone Castle has been looted," Antonio explained.
.
"It seems that Baron Jean can't wait to take action!" Allen smiled.
Allen had already expected Baron Jean to occupy the White Stone Territory. After all, there is an Iron Stone Territory between Musen City and Mudeng Territory. If Baron Jean did not want to lose Musori City or give up his base camp Mudeng Territory, then he would do it.
He can only try his best to occupy the Iron Stone Territory and connect the three territories. This is why Allen asked Antonio to go to the Iron Stone Territory for a quick victory this time. After all, Allen does not know how many troops Baron Jean will send to the Iron Stone Territory.
collar.
"Lord Baron, I think we can occupy the Iron Stone Territory, which can cut off the connection between the Mudeng Territory and Musen City! Block Baron Jean in Mu Sen City!" Antonio also noticed the special location of the Iron Stone Territory and hurriedly suggested.
"No, I will give up the iron stone collar to Baron Jean." Allen narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled faintly.
"What?"
"Sir..." Antonio on the side was very anxious, and he didn't understand that the Baron did not seize such a good opportunity and was ready to give it to Baron Jean.
Looking at Antonio on the side, Allen knew that Antonio would not give up unless he explained. After all, such a good opportunity was in front of him.
"The Iron Stone Territory is a battleground for Baron Jean. If we occupy the Iron Stone Territory and isolate Baron Jean in Musen City, if he does not fight against the Iron Stone Territory, he will face the siege of other baronies.
It's different with the Iron Stone Territory. You can advance, attack, retreat or defend.
In order to win the Iron Stone Territory, Baron Jean will definitely use all his troops to attack us. Now that he has occupied Musen City, his strength has greatly increased. Of course, it does not mean that the current Qinghuang Territory cannot defeat Baron Jean, but the battle will definitely
We have to pay casualties, let us, Qinghuang, resist Baron Jean alone, and finally give the other barons an advantage. Is this what you want to see?"
Allen explained the stakes to Antonio, and Antonio suddenly realized that no wonder the Baron was unwilling to occupy the Iron Stone Territory. It turned out that there was another reason for this.
"In other words, whoever occupies the Iron Stone Territory will have to bear the main attack from Baron Jean!"
"Thank you, Lord Baron, for your explanation. Antonio didn't think too much!" Antonio said with a look of shame.
"Of course, Antonio, your idea is not wrong, it's just that the situation is different." Allen said matter-of-factly.
"By the way, the more than 300 war horses brought back this time will be equipped for the soldiers. Among the more than 20,000 golden dragons, 10,000 will be given to the Finance Department, 10,000 will be given to the Logistics Bureau, and the rest will be given to the soldiers."
"Yes! Lord Baron." Antonio said excitedly.

At this time, Bi Cao led.
After conquering the Green Grass Territory, Baron Butz moved into the Blue Grass Territory. After waiting for the team to rest, Butz will lead his troops to occupy the nearby White Stone Territory.
"Sir, Lord Baron! The soldiers who have just been sent to the White Stone Territory to check the situation have received information that the White Stone Territory was attacked yesterday by the troops led by Baron Allen of the Qinghuang Territory!" Knight Osmond anxiously came over to report.
"What? Qinghuang Leader? How is that possible? Qinghuang Leader has obviously..." Buz couldn't believe it.
After all, Baron Qinghuang only had fifty cavalry, and if he wanted to occupy the White Stone Territory, it would be impossible unless the entire army was dispatched.
"Unless! He deceived the entire Musen Territory!" Baron Butz suddenly thought of something and threw the oak wine glass on the table to the ground angrily.
"Yes, Lord Baron, it is said that Baron Qinghuang led a hundred cavalry to raid the White Stone Territory, which is seriously inconsistent with his previous statement that there were only fifty warriors in the territory." Osmond also knew the situation of the last Musenburg meeting.
"Okay! Okay! I didn't expect so many of us to be deceived by a young boy. What a skill! That guy Arthur gave birth to a good son!" Baron Butz had to admit that he had underestimated this before.
Baron "The Child".
"So? Lord Baron, are we still going to White Stone Territory tomorrow?" Looking at the angry Baron, Osmond asked uncertainly.
"Send a letter to Baron Qinghuang and tell him that I want to meet with him. I hope he can appreciate it. The location is set on the boundary line between White Stone Territory and Green Grass Territory." Baron Buz, who had calmed down a little, looked down at him.
Osmond ordered.
For Baron Butz, the most important thing now is Jean who occupies Musen City. Although Baron Allen of Qinghuang has occupied the White Stone Territory, which really makes him very angry, he will not lose his head and lose big for a small gain.
The fight with the Qinghuang leader gave Jean an advantage in vain. After all, Jean is the biggest threat now.
"Lord Baron, what should we do with the Isaac family?" Osmond was confused about how to deal with the Baron family in the Green Grass Territory.
"Do you still have to ask? Of course they were dealt with secretly. How can we keep them alive?" Butz looked at the cracked wooden cup on the ground with a cold look on his face.
"Yes!" Osmond said, shrinking his cold neck.
"By the way, how many people can we find in the Green Grass Territory to become warriors this time?" Buz asked a question that concerned him more.
"Lord Baron, we have recruited more than a hundred people now, and we can probably recruit about a hundred more! There are fewer cavalry among them, but they can form a knight squad!" As for how many people the Green Grass Territory can recruit to become warriors,
Osmond only knew a rough idea.
After all, in this era, the nobles did not care much about the common people. They only cared about the wealth collected from the territory, and they would not count the specific number of people in their territory. They only had a rough estimate of the population in the territory, let alone
Just like Qinghuang Ling did, count the specific number of people in each household and recruit troops based on specific circumstances.
It must be said here that the deceased Baron Arthur had a forward-looking vision and conducted a census of the territory, but Allen carried it forward and put it into practice.
…………
At this time, Allen also got the news from the Shadow Division that Baron Butz had captured the Green Grass Territory, and put down the information in his hand.
This time Baron Buz led 200 people to capture the Green Grass Territory. The Blue Grass Territory could not hold on at all, and the Blue Grass Castle was declared broken in just half an hour.
In Allen's mind, Baron Butz is also considered a figure. He has resisted the invasion of sea monsters all year round, and his murderous aura is much heavier than that of other barons. Although Allen estimates that based on Baron Butz's performance, it is unlikely that he will know that he has occupied the White Stone Territory.
Later, he also led troops to go there, but he had to guard against it.
In order to guard against Baron Buz's ambition towards the White Rock Territory, there were only fifty Qinghuang Cavalry in White Rock Town. Allen was not at ease and ordered Antonio to lead a hundred cavalry warriors to support.
