Chapter 120 (1/2)
Sir Aaron's appearance was sudden, but it was also arranged by Loren - if it was normal, it would take at least a month to start and return from shenlinbao.
But if only cavalry light forward, then this time can be greatly shortened, or even reduced to less than 20 days!
According to the note left by Loren before he set out, sir Aaron threw down the infantry and cumbersome baggage and led the cavalry army supported by the Duke to Shenlin castle as soon as possible.
After the nobles of Shenlin castle took control of the castle, they didn't even remember to close the city gate. As a result, the cavalry took control of the castle without hindrance and surrendered in less than a quarter of an hour.
The soldiers who swaggered in front of the refugees, under lottel's iron horse waving the flag of Cross Blood Sword, immediately became lambs to be slaughtered, and even had no idea of resistance.
After all, neither Barry Senna nor the nobles could tell the soldiers their true intentions. They really thought they were just coming to counter the rebellion for the count. How could they stop the Duke's cavalry?
The disillusioned Barry senna and all the nobles were thrown into the dungeon without resistance, waiting for the final judgment of Reuven Fred.
A day later, the Seine family had a new owner, will Seine - as for Barry Seine, he was beheaded and turned into a corpse by Reuven Fred.
A small part of the remaining nobles went to see the Holy Cross with Barry senna, and the rest completely surrendered to the new count of shenlimburg, handing over a large area of land, hunting grounds and farmers, as well as a large ransom.
So far, it took nearly four months, and the whole count of shenlinbao was finally completely controlled by Reuven Fred. The originally arrogant nobles either bowed their heads and surrendered, or were completely weakened.
The senna family, who lost Barry, has never recovered. Will senna, the new owner of the family, has no prestige at all. It is only by the count that he will not be overthrown - even the senna family are gnashing their teeth at the traitor, not to mention the remaining nobles.
A few days later, the infantry led by Duke lottel finally escorted the grain to shenlinbao. At the same time, the nobles who successively paid the ransom also transported the full grain wheat and oats, which greatly alleviated the food shortage of shenlinbao.
With a heavy army, land and food in hand, Reuven Fred finally got the opportunity to show himself - the scattered refugees and more poor people without land were attracted by the land and became self-employed farmers led by the count of shenlinbao.
These new farms, like seedlings growing on this barren land, are fragile but vibrant. When they grow into towering trees and fly under the deep forest dome, it will be the Cross Blood Sword flag of the Fred family.
On the rooftop of Shenlin castle tower, the little wizard leaning against the wall pier looked at the distant scenery, as if even his heart had gone away with birds.
Loren stood carefully behind her, carefully observing the expression of the, wary of what he said wrong.
”In your eyes, I'm actually a burden, right?”
Although her voice was very calm, every word Ayn said had a sense of self abandonment: ”never tell me anything, like treating a child - that Miss Leia has admitted that you specifically asked her to protect me.”
Loren silently took two steps forward and carefully comforted the little wizard: ”in fact... You can think so. Anyone has something good and bad at. This time, he just happened to meet something you're not good at.”
”In fact, if it weren't for you, I didn't know how serious a mistake I had made - if I couldn't know in advance how terrible the severe winter was, I wouldn't even have time to remedy it, and I would be more likely to defeat Barry senna and the nobles of shenlinbao.”
”So half of this victory is due to you!”
”Is that so...” Ayn Rand's expression was very confused. Bei's teeth gently bit his lower lip, as if he remembered something very long ago: ”my mother is the youngest daughter of the previous generation of landlords, a particularly timid person.”
”She was married by visari Rand, the fat man who had never seen a man for a farm. I didn't even see the 'father', and the mother who refused to remarry became a burden in the family.”
”Although his surname was Rand, he was humiliated by his servants and family at will. He couldn't do anything except cry.” Ayn grabbed the wall pier and put his finger into the crack of the wall: ”I made up my mind from a very young age that I would never live like that.”
”Before she died, she knelt in visa, begged him to give me a better way out, and warned me never to forget my last name and never forget the honor of the family until she died - as a result, the fat man sold me to vimpal college, and I became a servant of the college.”
