Yatru Rivern feels that his original worldview and values ​​are collapsing.

Because... Iron, no matter which country it is on the mainland, is enough to be regarded as an extremely valuable strategic material.

In the Odin Empire, all large iron ore mines were controlled by the large tribes. They used the iron ore mined to create more weapons, and then looted the remaining tribes or exchanged for a large amount of food.

In the Norman Empire, owning iron ore meant having a stable source of wealth. The sale of various ironware often made the local nobles profitable, thus supporting them to enjoy a long and luxurious life.

But there is no doubt that no matter in which country or region, it is unheard of to use iron, a precious strategic resource, to build bridges.

Because... even if life is extravagant, nobles will not be so prodigal!

You know, building a bridge with steel is probably dozens of times more expensive than an ordinary bridge.

Moreover, if other people have the same amount of iron ore, it would be more than enough to arm a full force!

At this moment, Yatru Rivien's heart is as if the river is overwhelmed. He is not only shocked by the great craftsmanship of the Idar people, but also shocked by the craftsmanship and technology of Idar forging ironware!

In this era when the level of technology generally stays in the "block iron making" process, due to the relatively soft texture of iron, even weapons can only be forged short swords.

Soldiers of this era certainly don't like this extremely short melee weapon, but the iron smelted through the "block iron" industry cannot meet the soldiers' demand for length at all!

No one likes this kind of short and soft stuff, but they have only one choice.

But here, a steel bridge across the Solon River gave Atru Rivien a blow!

No one else can, but Idar can!

Every steel beam standing on the bridge is probably nearly ten meters in length.

Only hard, long and solid iron materials can build huge bridges across the banks of the river.

Thinking of this, Yatru Rivien just felt a little unsure in his heart...

He felt that his understanding of the nobles in the eastern part of the empire was shaken at the last moment of taking over the territory.

According to the information he compiled earlier, the conflict between Sauron and Idar should cause the two noble leaders to lose, and Idar has been ransacked by pirates from the distant sea many times, and it should become even weaker and weaker. .

It's just... an aristocratic leader who can build a huge bridge of this scale will really be plundered by those pirates and make people unhappy?

For a time, Yatru Rivern's heart was full of doubts.

but……

The tragic experience experienced by Idar led not only from Earl Idar alone. The Church of Illumination and the guard general of the Mann Fortress Sarah Kronn both endorsed Idar...

Suddenly, an idea that seemed unrealistic to him suddenly broke into the mind of Yatru Rivern. Could it be that... the content described in the letter sent to the Regent Council is fake?

Raymond O'Sullivan also frowned and looked at the opposite bank not far away, but what he noticed was not the chain bridge over the Sauron River, but the fortress that seemed to have nowhere to go!

"Why is there a fortress here?!" Raymond asked badly in German.

The turbulent currents, the strong fortresses.

Raymond knew very well that such a fortress would be difficult to conquer with the more than a thousand Odin soldiers under his leadership alone!

"This... how is this possible? How can there be a fortress here?"

Atru Rivern finally came back to his senses, staring at the strong fortress on the other side of the river with his eyes dumbfounded.

Before heading to the eastern part of the empire, he had done a lot of homework and read countless maps, but he had never seen anything about this fortress in the appropriation records of the Regent Council or on any marching map. Any record...

And this also means...

This fortress on the Sauron River was actually built by the so-called Earl of Idar himself? ? ?

The excessive cost of gold coins, the wastage of luggage, the shortage of manpower...

Who would sit idle and build such a strong military fortress from his own territory in a peaceful age?

"waste!"

Raymond glared at Yatru, cursing.

Since entering the Sauron Neck, Atru Rivienne’s judgments have been wrong frequently. First it was an empty Sauron Neck, and then a strong fortress on the Sauron River, which made Raymond. O'Sullivan was particularly angry.

"My lord, if you explain to the defenders here the content of the armistice agreement and the fact that the Idalling has been ceded to the Odin Empire, maybe the soldiers stationed in the fortress will follow the will of the Emperor Norman and surrender... …" Yatru Levien tentatively said.

after all……

Although most of the nobles in the empire prevented resistance, in fact...

There are still a large number of nobles who have strong fortresses and a large number of private soldiers ~ www.readwn.com ~ still opened the city gates under the persuasion of Yatru Rivern.

Raymond glanced at him and said:

"It makes sense, it's up to you to convey this news."

Yatru Rivien: (#°Д°)

...

As a former nobleman, after passing the bridge and explaining his intentions to the defenders on the wall, Yatru Rivien was successfully pulled into the city by the Idar soldiers through the hanging basket.

Then he met the amiable army commander Sam Layton, smiled and explained his intentions and the contents of the armistice agreement.

Then... he was chopped off.

The moment Yatru Rivern's head was thrown from the wall by Idar soldiers, Raymond was furious!

The reason why Yatru Livien was asked to persuade him to surrender was because Yatru Livien was an aristocrat!

According to the tradition of the Norman Empire, even if the nobles sometimes meet each other in battle, they still retain the face of being nobles, and will not cut each other directly with knives.

Moreover, the war of this era can barely be regarded as a bit of chivalry, even if the two sides of the war, it is usually not easy to use a knife on the messenger.

Because once the messenger is killed, there is no possibility of reconciliation, and you are faced with a situation of endless death!

But……

The Idar people did the opposite and cut the Yatru Rivern flag!

Even though Raymond was not used to seeing Yatru Rivern's second and fifth boy, he was after all the adjutant appointed by Alio O'Sullivan himself! Raymond couldn't explain to Alio O'Sullivan at all!

This is humiliation and contempt for the Odin Empire!

This is an absolutely unforgivable crime!

For a while, Raymond was furious...

"Infantry! Assembled infantry!"
