Chapter 201

Randall leads the East, the periphery of a forest. The two groups are facing each other 100 meters apart.

One side has a large number of people and excellent armour. They pull out their swords, put bows and crossbows on the strings, and point murderously at their opponents, like facing a great enemy. The atmosphere is tense and dignified. On the other hand, although there were only five people, wearing simple leather armor and surrounded by more than 100 soldiers, they looked calm as if their opponents had nothing.

The rumbling sound of horses' hoofs came from the west, which boosted the morale of the dominant party, but the five people were unmoved. Soon, more than 100 elite cavalry came to the scene, surrounded by two nobles, pacing to the edge of the encirclement. A warrior wrapped in pure gold armor, like an iron monster, greeted him. He pushed away his face armor and saluted, "Sir, you're coming."

Victor nodded and the top general under his opponent said, "Nelson, this is Viscount teness, the tax official of the kingdom. You've seen it."

Nelson quickly saluted the nearby teness: "Viscount, it's a great honor to see you again."

"Lord Nelson, don't be polite. I heard that Knights invaded Randall's collar. My colleagues and I came specially to have a look." Tnis nodded demurely at Nelson.

Victor asked, "Nelson, what's going on? Where's our patrol? Are there any survivors?"

Nelson shook his head sadly and led Victor aside. On the ground, there were 15 bodies covered with white cloth. The pungent smell of blood and the outline under the white cloth clearly told Victor that all these guards were cut in two and died miserably.

Nelson said: "15 patrol soldiers didn't show up at the post on time. I brought people to check. I just saw those people burying the bodies. Then we surrounded them. After negotiation, these people admitted that they killed the patrol soldiers and returned the bodies to us. They also asked for an interview with you. I didn't dare to make a decision, so I sent someone to report the situation to you."

Victor was expressionless, but his heart was painful and angry. These 15 soldiers are ordinary guards. They have followed Victor for more than two years and are loyal to him. Their sacrifice was a great loss to the Randall family.

The guards of Randall family are all farmers. They don't receive military training as the children of feudal officials. Their martial arts skills are very average. Victor doesn't expect them to have much combat effectiveness, as long as they are loyal enough, have a strong will, know how to cooperate and command, and can boost morale. Victor positioned them as grass-roots sergeants.

In case of war, Victor can arm 5000 militias with the most sophisticated equipment, but in order to give full play to the combat effectiveness of the militia and stimulate their courage, there must be noncommissioned officers who are proficient in tactics. These guards play such a role.

Randall collar currently has more than 8000 people, including more than 3000 young militia, and only 250 family guards. According to the practice of 30 farmers supporting one family guard, Randall collar should have 300 guards, but Victor's rise time is too long. His work point system has only more than 800 members, and it is the limit to select 250 guards. Fifteen guards died at a time. Victor couldn't make up for it if he wanted to.

Victor had the idea of choosing a guard from the free people, but soon rejected it. Feudal officials are the minions of the Lord. They should not only be fierce and sharp, but also be like hands and fingers. It is not uncommon for canons to fight armed with the church for the Lord, which is why the Church never cares about the life or death of canons. The church has a great influence on the free people. The free people often go to church to pray and tell the priest everything. It's better to believe that the sow will climb the tree than to expect them to safeguard the interests of the Lord. Unless Victor restarts the work point system representing the interests of the free people, it is more reliable to honestly train mountain people mercenaries.

"Let's go and see who they are?" Victor gritted his teeth and walked towards the encirclement.

The guards made way, and the five men looked this way. Victor looked at them, his eyes not tight.

The five men were extraordinary in appearance. Even in the face of hundreds of heavily armed soldiers and dozens of glittering crossbows, they looked calm. They were wearing old leather armor. Four people, one holding a shield and the other holding a heavy cutting sword, surrounded a man, while the man in the middle held his hands in the air, and a Silver Knight's huge sword was inserted on the ground beside him.

Victor saw the weapons in their hands and finally knew why Nelson confirmed that they were knights.

Heavy chopping sword is a powerful weapon designed to fight against large orcs. The sword body is 1.8 meters long and weighs 40 pounds. The sword head is round and blunt, and the blade is sharp. It can cut the Centaur's waist. Any light lock armor and large and small shields will only be cut like bread. However, the heavy cut sword is very heavy and difficult to control. Strong soldiers need to hold the sword with both hands to wave, while the four people opposite only hold the sword with one hand, and the sword body is purple. That is the characteristic of refined gold weapons. These are enough to explain the problem.

Victor was even more surprised when he silently observed their element attributes. There are two knights and two trainee Knights among the five people, and the man in the middle has all four attributes of 15 points. Only when his body is reshaped by void elements can he have such balanced extraordinary attributes. He is undoubtedly a great knight.

"Lord Austin Buryat!?" Exclaimed Viscount teness.

Austin was depressed when he saw Viscount teness next to victor.

Two days ago, Williams' confidant housekeeper personally brought a secret letter, and Austin learned of the change. That night, Mrs. Judy stole the letter and fled yeliucheng with her family heir primo. This prompted Austin to make up his mind to get rid of Judy and her son. He led his confidants all the way to track down Judy's carriage outside Randall's lead, but only caught the rebellious guard, and Judy's mother and son were not inside. After some torture, the guards confessed that Judy's mother and son disguised as free people and sneaked into Randall's collar.

Austin had no choice. He left the pro guard at the border and brought only four confidants into Randall's collar, hoping to quietly kill Judy's mother and son in the wild. But as soon as he entered Randall's collar, he ran into Victor's patrol. In order to keep it secret, they had to kill all the patrol soldiers. However, while they were handling the body, they were caught by the Randall family army.

Austin felt that he must have had bad luck. Judy's mother and son fled. It was originally a good opportunity to get rid of them, but what I didn't expect was that as soon as I entered Rand collar, I ran into a patrol, which killed people here and was blocked by Randall's army. So many coincidences have completely failed Austin's assassination plan.

Austin knew that it was no coincidence. Their every move was in the eyes of the alchemical crow. Randall's defense system is extremely tight. The alchemical crow patrols the sky over the territory. Any sneaker will be caught by the patrol soldiers and sent to repair the reservoir. However, the alchemical crow could not distinguish the knight from the free people, which led to the destruction of the patrol.

The assassination plan has gone bankrupt. Even the great knight can't kill more than 100 elite soldiers at one time. Austin did not choose to break through. He hoped to make a deal with Viscount Randall and pay some price for Judy's mother and son. Although the killing of the family heirs will fall into the hands of the York family, it is better than nothing.

Austin was confident of persuading Victor because he decided to secretly take refuge in the York family. Even if the matter is revealed and the royal family retaliates for it, the York family can protect him and maybe get a new territory in the man horse hills. As for the guards who were killed, Austin did not consider them at all. However, the presence of the royal court aristocrats here failed Austin's plan.

This time, it's really a coincidence!

"Lord Austin, can you explain what happened here?" Asked Viscount teness suspiciously.

Austin had to harden his head and said, "Viscount teness, I didn't expect to meet you here. Madame Judy and master primo were hijacked by a group of people to Randall's collar. I brought someone to track down, but I was ambushed. You've seen the matter. I hope Viscount Randall can give me an explanation!"

Victor's heart was like a mirror. He knew the title struggle of the Buryat family very well. Judy's mother and son must be missing. They are likely to sneak into Randall's village through the border post, and Austin came to cut the roots.

"Lord Austin, do you have any evidence that I sent someone to hijack lady Judy and the heirs of the Buryat family? But you, disguised and with a beheading sword, sneaked into Randall's collar and killed my soldiers. What's your idea? Are we fools?" Said Victor ironically.

Austin said faintly, "maybe Mrs. Judy admired the Lord, so she took master primo into Randall's collar. Lord Randall, Mrs. Judy can stay, but I must take the family heir back!"

Tanis also saw that Austin was accusing victor of interfering in the internal affairs of the Buryat family, while Victor accused Austin of trying to murder the family heirs. Tunis is not sure whether the York family interfered with the inheritance of the Buryat family, but it is certain that Austin did have bad intentions.

As for the affair between Mrs. Judy and Victor, tnis didn't believe it at all. Although lady Judy is famous, how can she be compared with Sylvia in terms of appearance, style, nobility and blood. Moreover, everyone thinks Victor is Sylvia's forbidden man, and no one believes that Victor dares to hook up three and four behind Sylvia's back.

Austin's saying so is just an excuse and a step. In fact, many families start disputes in this name. When a lord intends to seek a neighbor's territory, he will use the other party to seduce his wife as an excuse to start a war. Whoever loses or wins is for women, not for the territory. In this way, both sides have steps to go down, and the Lord's wife will only be complacent.

Austin did not know that Victor could not bear it in particular.

Victor has two memories. What he most agrees with is the memory on earth and establishes values based on it. Victor feels humiliated by the little Baron's past.

There is no idea that men are superior to women in this world. The status of nobility has nothing to do with gender. It only depends on background, power, blood and power. The little Baron awakened his Elven blood and could not become a knight, but his appearance and figure were better than the Silver Knight, which made him coveted by the female nobles. Victor looked through the little Baron's memory. He was taught "court etiquette" by at least four female nobles in the palace. He was not protected until the little Baron married Sophia, but his status as a male pet has spread in the aristocratic circle. Until today, how can Victor tolerate it?!

Victor had planned to weigh the gains and losses. Now he just wanted to calm his anger with Austin's life and recite the reputation of the Randall family.

"Lord Austin, you not only kill my soldiers, but also slander my reputation. Only with your blood can you wash my shame. Fight a decisive battle!" Said Victor coldly.

Austin did not expect Victor to be so determined. He had to doubt that this was a trap laid by the York family. Austin hesitated for a moment and said tentatively, "as far as I know, Randall family has no knights. Are you going to let Lord Nelson fight me?"

Victor sneered, "I'm talking about a showdown, not a knight duel. If you think it's unfair, you can bring your guards here. Don't they lie in ambush five kilometers away?"

Austin was more and more sure that he had been ambushed by the York family. He said, "maybe there is a misunderstanding here, I..."

"There is no misunderstanding! Either you can try to break through and wait for the trial of the church in the name of murdering the family heirs. Or, bring your pro guards here and fight fairly with my men. If you win, you can search my territory. If you lose, you don't have to think about anything else!" Victor turned to teness and asked, "Viscount teness, I hope you can testify."

Tnis was not optimistic about victor. He knew the horror of silver knights. However, as a court aristocrat loyal to the royal family, tnis had no reason to prevent the showdown. The battle between the Buryat family and the York family was in the interests of the royal family. Tanis believes that Austin dare not hurt Victor, and Victor can't hurt Austin. No matter how many guards die, they will only weaken their control over the territory, which is more beneficial to the royal family.

Thinking of this, teness sighed and said, "Viscount Randall, personally, I don't want you to fight. It's best for the royal family to mediate. But if you insist, I'll do what you want."

"I insist!" Said Victor resolutely.

Austin nodded and said indifferently, "in that case, I'm as you wish! However, I still hope you can give primo to me, and you will get my friendship."

"Then you don't have to!" Victor smiled contemptuously and waved, "let them go!"

The guards stepped aside and quickly formed a square in front of victor. Austin gave Victor a deep look and led his men to the East.

Ternis and his colleagues gathered on the other side. They didn't expect to see such a good play when they came out to collect personal income tax. These noble children were excited to discuss the etiquette and significance of the family showdown.

Nelson also squeezed the axe excitedly and asked Victor, "Sir, what if they don't dare to come?"

"Dare not come? We'll call!" Victor said, summoned a guard and said, "release the dust Falcon and let the village heads find Mrs. Judy's mother and son!"

The guard took the order and Nelson asked, "Sir, how can we fight?"

Victor smiled, patted his shoulder armor and said, "first change a pair of ant man armor. Then, wipe them out!"

"Like the ant killer leader?"

"Like the ant killer leader!"
