Heroes of Silver Moon

"My lord, it's not good!" The attendant hurriedly came to report, and Earl Rosen, who was nearly seventy years old, frowned in dissatisfaction.

"What's the matter?" Earl Rosen asked calmly.

"Master Yida was hanged by Marquis Simon in Xinfa. In addition, Marquis Simon issued a notice asking our Rosen family to make an apology and compensation!"

Earl Rosen was stunned by the attendant's words.

No, hanged the direct members of their Rosen family without authorization, and asked them to make compensation and apologize. Is the new marquis conferred by the king so arrogant?

"Be clear, what is the situation?" Earl Rosen became serious.

A real Marquis is not someone to be trifled with. Although the new French Territory has been developed for a short time, all the southern lords are aware of its rapid development.

Not to mention, the Marquis Simon has always had a good relationship with the royal family...

"Yes, the incident started about half a month ago. People from the Cochrane family visited Master Yida. I don't know what they talked about. Master Yida and the other party went to Xinfaling. I heard that there was a lot of trouble in Xinfaling. Then He was directly ordered to be hanged by the angry Marquis Simon." The attendant replied concisely.

The new law leader is on the east side of the southern border, and the Rosen family is on the west side of the southern border, with more than half of the southern border separating the two sides.

The distance and the suddenness of the incident made it difficult for them to obtain detailed information.

"Damn it, the Cochrane family? Isn't that the main lord who suppressed the new French territory? How could Yida, an idiot, hook up with them? Did he have contact with the Cochrane family?"

Earl Rosen was almost **** off. His grandson is simply an idiot. The Cochrane family is obviously not at ease, and they dare to go to Xinfaling with them.

"My lord..." The attendant hesitated to speak.

"What on earth is the Cochrane family saying? What are you dawdling about!" Earl Rosen said impatiently.

"After the Marquis Simon issued the notice, he brazenly sent troops to attack the Cochrane family. Now the Cochrane family and its allies have been captured by the Marquis Simon."

The attendant looked at Earl Rosen's face and said cautiously.

"What, the sudden attack on the Cochran family?" Earl Rosen narrowed his eyes, calmed down for a moment, and began to think carefully about the meaning.

As the head of the kingdom's third family, Earl Rosen is no idiot.

The key words Xinfaling, Marquis Simon, southern forces, and the royal family were all associated by him.

This may not be an unexpected incident, but a premeditated attack by Marquis Simon. He wants to step on the Rosen family and become the new leader of the southern lord.

"Oh, interesting!" Earl Rosen sneered, closed his eyes and began to think about countermeasures.

The new law is aggressive and must be dealt with cautiously. Also, is there any royal meaning in this?

"Has the king not returned from the Holy Empire yet?" Earl Rosen asked the attendant.

"No, the king only set off from the capital a month ago, and I'm afraid he won't come back from the Holy Empire within three or four months." The attendant replied immediately.

The capital of the Silvermoon Kingdom is almost four or five provinces away from the imperial capital of the Holy Empire, which is equivalent to three Silvermoon Kingdoms.

With such a long distance, the king who has just ascended the throne may not have reached the imperial capital yet, so there is no way to talk about returning.

"Hmph, I see. This is to cut the mess quickly, cut first and play later!" Earl Rosen looked gloomy and understood Simon's thoughts.

"Send a notice to all the lords of the southern border, reprimanding Marquis Simon for his arrogance, and request our allies to send reinforcements to support our Rosen family." Marquis Rosen ordered his attendants.

Status always depends on strength, as long as Simon can defeat their Rosen family, so what if he is given the position of the overlord of the Southern Territory.

But how many allies can a new lord gather even if he has obtained the millennium heritage of the Hawke family?

War is never fought alone...

 …

The castle of the Cochrane family has completely become the base camp of the new army, and Valery brought people here.

"Do you need me to summon allies?" Valery asked hastily after seeing Simon.

This time, Simon brazenly launched the lord's private war, which caught everyone by surprise, including the Hawke family, who have not been able to react until now.

"No need. I believe that the new army can win this battle. The main thing for the Hawke family now is to connect with the new law leader and prepare for the merger."

Simon seemed quite relaxed, not worried about this battle at all.

"Okay." Valery nodded helplessly, he had never understood this son before.

As the current overlord of the Southern Territory, the Rosen family can at least summon an army of 50,000 people. If he is not mistaken, the army led by the new law this time seems to be only about 4,500 people!

With such a large gap in numbers, how can Simon have the confidence to win?

In the open space outside the castle, soldiers of the new army with bolt-action rifles on their shoulders are still practicing, even though it is now a state of war.

Cannons and machine guns are lined up and maintained by operators. In the mild sunlight, these weapons emit a little glare.

 …

In a small village, Sir Dahl received a letter from the Lord.

"Knight Sharp, it looks like we're going to fight again." Sir Dahl said to his vassal after opening the letter to read.

The knight owns a cavalier of a village, as long as he is willing to entrust the land, he can also be a retainer.

"What happened?" Sharp Knight~www.readwn.com~ who was no different from the old farmer was not surprised at all.

The southern border is in such chaos, either from the orc navy, or from the sea bandits, or the barbarians are too prolific and have already formed camps, which need to be wiped out.

Or where the robbers were too arrogant and offended the nobles.

In short, there are too many opportunities to summon their vassals, and Sharp is too lazy to think about the reason.

"Hmm... I'm afraid something went wrong this time. The Rosen family asked our lord to send reinforcements to join the battle." Sir Dahl frowned.

When the Rosen family recruits manpower, it is usually a large-scale war, which is different from ordinary small fights. The retainers of these small families are no different from ordinary soldiers.

"Hey, it's useless to think too much, let's call people as soon as possible!" Sharp Knight sighed.

As vassals, the meaning of their existence is to be loyal to the lord, to eat the king's salary and to be loyal to the king. Otherwise, why would they give them precious fiefdoms.

"That's right, call more people, and then the right to speak with the lord will be focused, so that you won't become cannon fodder for no reason." Sir Dahl ordered.

"I know what to do, my lord." Knight Sharp shrugged and began to perform the duties of a vassal.

One day Sir Dahl gathered his soldiers.

Counting himself, one plate armor knight, one chain mail knight, six leather cavalry retinues, fifty militia spearmen, and ten militia archers.

With these soldiers, Sir Dahl went to the lord's castle. They were called retainers, but they were actually the lord's officers. When they arrived, the lord would give him more soldiers.

These people with him now can only be regarded as his personal soldiers.
