Rise In Calradia

　　 "Do you think I can win the war if I am captured? Come on, little baron, you are just lucky. I won't admit defeat, let alone stop like this."

　　 Count Rimusk was sitting at the table in the room, eating a cooked duck with both hands. He also showed disdain for Byron's suggestion of truce for freedom.

"And I can tell you frankly that if you want a ransom, my family will pay you enough dinars. But it is impossible to withdraw the army. Count Matt Asth wants to take back Gruenward. Fort, Serendil is only part of the battle. It is a blocking stone in the attack. Even if I die, the war will not end. The town will be taken down after all, and you can't stop it."

　　 Count Rimusk’s mouth was greasy when he ate ducks, and he was not stressed at all, but there was already a cloud on Byron’s head sitting opposite him.

　　 "You just revealed your plan to me so directly? Lord Earl, are you too arrogant?"

　　 Byron clenched his fists and asked very unhappy.

　　 "Little Baron, your brain is not very bright. We have mobilized so many troops, do you think it is to take down this town that belongs to me?"

　　 "Come on, apart from Gruen Wardburg, where is it worth taking this season."

　　Earl Rimusk said, regardless of Byron, he started eating.

　　 Byron walked out of the room with a sullen face, almost slamming the door.

　　Fatis and Eleon stood at the door, and they heard all the content of the previous conversation.

　　 "Sir, I think..."

　　Fatis leaned in, but Byron interrupted him rudely.

　　 "Where is Rodok's army now?"

　　 "They have just taken the territory of Baron Chico and are collecting supplies."

　　Fatis was taken aback for a moment, and then answered Byron with some anxiety.

"If it is true that Count Rimusk said, they will not stop, then the day after tomorrow at the latest, they will reach under our wall. In just one day, they will be able to occupy here, and then we will become Captured."

　　Fatis' words sounded a little pessimistic, but Byron knew it was the truth. The difference in strength between the two sides is too great. Even if Byron used a small loss to defeat hundreds of Rhodok infantry who followed the Earl of Rimusk, he learned that Agor Lombok had sent more than a thousand strong soldiers. After the west came to support, the ratio of foe to us was still close to ten to one, a terrible ratio that Byron could not surpass.

"Fort Gruenward is now the fief of Earl Dilynard. There are thousands of fighters there. If they come to support us, we will be able to clear the siege. We defeated those southerners once, and people have always praised their discipline and crossbow. Now it seems to be just a cowardly rhetoric."

　　 Eleon was a little bit disdainful of the Rhodok army that came to attack. He admitted that the opponent had a large number of soldiers and their strength surpassed them, but until now he did not think he would lose.

　　 "Confidence is a good thing, Elaine. But overconfidence is arrogance, and arrogance does not bring good things."

　　 Byron frowned when he heard what he said. The previous battle was a bit too smooth, which made this noble boy feel a little airy. This is Eleon's old problem, and it has caused him some troubles, but he never has a long memory, so until now Byron is not assured of letting him lead the army by himself.

"Gruen Wardburg’s army is not too much, and most of them are infantry deployed by Uxhall. The earl and the castle officers will not risk saving a city that is of little importance to them. The army was sent so far from the city. And even if they really want to help us, it is too late. Before they arrive, this place will fall. I know this."

　　Byron squeezed the bridge of his nose, and looked at Elaine with a little helplessness.

　　 "Sorry, my lord, you have the final say."

　　 Eleon shrugged and apologized to Bai Bai, but obviously he didn't take Byron's words seriously.

　　Byron didn't care about Elaine's attitude. With a sullen face, he went to the hall downstairs, summoned his heroes, and discussed the matter for a long time.

　　 "Although I don't want to say that, but we should give up Serendil first."

　　 Byron felt heartache when he said this. After all, this is his territory, the foundation of his current development, and a symbol of his status. Although they thought they could retake this place in the previous discussions, if it fails, everything that Byron has done in Serendil during this period will be in vain.

　　 And his reputation will be greatly reduced. The people of Serendil will think that this lord has abandoned them, and the other nobles of the kingdom will laugh at him with this, even if he captures a Rhodok Earl.

　　 The heroes looked at each other and did not object to Byron.

　　During the discussion just now, they thought of a lot of ways to deal with the Rhodoks. Kress even suggested that half of the town and the invading army should be sent to the sky with gunpowder.

　　 But no matter how you look at it, even if you get lucky with this method, it is not worth the loss.

　　More importantly, Byron also has peony mercenaries, a large number of dinars and many industries. He does not need to spare everything to guard this place, and does not need to risk losing heroes or paying a large ransom.

"That's it. The people who told us are going to pack up, bring the craftsmen and willingness of Dehrim... Forget it, whether they want it or not, take away all the local militias! And ours! Captive Count Rimusk, we dedicated him to Count Harengoss. Although there is a little ransom, at least he will not hold us too much about our abandonment of the town~www.readwn.com~ In addition, we set fire to the east. And the north wall, so that it will be much more convenient when we attack in the future."

　　 Byron's order was quickly implemented, and many people were required to pack their luggage immediately and prepare to leave. Even if they don't want to, those soldiers will "help" them pack up and send them to the carriage.

　　 The people in the town immediately found out what was wrong. They saw soldiers everywhere, and the things in the stone tower were moved out one by one.

　　 People realize that their current lord has left, just like their once lord Rodok.

　　 Half of the people didn't care. For them, the change of the lord was as common as changing the clothes.

　　 The other half of the people are very panicked. They moved here under Byron's governance. Byron gave them land and tax relief. They don't want to lose these. They risked being beaten to stop the soldiers asking, but the other party did not answer them.

　　 The flames rose on the wall, and the women screamed in surprise. The difference is that no one tried to put out the fire this time, letting the fire burn half of the town wall.

　　 In the end, Byron’s convoy took almost all the food in the granary, and when Rodok’s army arrived, there was no other way but to conquer from the people.

　　 This time, Byron was cruel.
