Chapter 18 Choices
"Except for the nobles near the front line who are organizing defenses on the spot, the noble armies from all over the country have already set off and are expected to arrive at the front line one after another in the next five to ten days.

At present, the nobles in the Hansen area are the closest to us, only more than 80 miles away, but their marching speed can be called a snail, and the daily marching speed is even lower than ten miles.

The nobles in Warren, Kadar, Qiaomu and other areas are less than 120 miles away from us.It's just that they deliberately slowed down the marching speed, and the daily marching speed did not exceed twenty miles. "

As soon as the middle-aged officer finished speaking, Earl Pierce's anger burst out all of a sudden.It was so deceiving, half a month after the call-up order was issued, the reinforcements were still on the way.

Those who didn't know thought how big the southeast province was, but in fact, the farthest aristocratic territory from Ethel Fortress was no more than four hundred miles away.

It's just such a short distance, and it took less than half a month to dawdle, so it's no wonder Earl Pierce was angry.

It's just that he was angry. Before the rebels rose up, he sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight to make a profit. After all, he couldn't bring it to the table.The reaction of the nobles now is the backlash brought about by these bad things.

The lessons learned by the nobles of Wright and Wyton counties made the middle and small nobles in the southeastern province wary of him.

There is no shortage of smart people in this world. Hudson can analyze problems, and other nobles will also find clues.

In order to protect themselves, everyone naturally has to show their abilities.Although Earl Pierce had ordered the news to be blocked, it was of no use to the nobles who wanted to inquire about the news.

There is no way, the nobles in the world belong to one family.Although Earl Pierce is the largest nobleman in the southeastern province, most of the knights under his command come from the families of small and medium nobles.

Perhaps these people will not betray the lord, but it is still very possible to pass on some information to themselves.It's impossible to expect everyone to be [-]% loyal, right?

"idiot!"

"Everyone is a bunch of idiots!"

"The longer it takes, the stronger the rebel army will be. When the time comes to fight, there will be good fruits for them..."

Earl Pierce scolded.

Deep down in his heart, he had already made up his mind to give a good blow to this group of small and medium-sized nobles.

I just want to think about it, but the specific operation is very troublesome.All of them were passive and sabotaged, and let him, the boss, go shopping with the rebels on the front line.

Even with all kinds of calculations, they just couldn't come, and Pierce didn't give up!
You can't let the rebels go there and seek the bad luck of the nobles, right?
If you really do this, I am afraid that all the nobles will be overjoyed.According to the style of the rebels, the Dalton family was basically cold after a bloodbath all the way.

Aristocrats enjoy many privileges, but also undertake corresponding obligations.Just look at the nobles of Wright and Wyton Counties, almost all of them were killed in battle.

Even if there is a fish that slips through the net, in the world of the aristocrats, it is still a "dead person". "Responsibility for guarding the land" is the most basic obligation of nobles, and you can't just run if you want to.

Losing the territory is equivalent to losing everything of the nobility.The noble status and family glory were all lost in one wave.The cruel reality forced them to stay and do their best.

Of course, the children outside don't count.These are the seeds. In case of accidents, the children of nobles living outside can still inherit the title and revive the family.

"Your Excellency Governor, now is not the time to pursue responsibility. The most urgent task is to urge nobles from all over the world to lead the army to reinforce as soon as possible.

Although Fort Essel was strong, it could not completely stop the progress of the rebels.If the enemy bypassed the castle and divided their troops into Beda to make trouble, it would be a big trouble. "

The middle-aged officer reminded.

This is not alarmist talk, as a rebel, you don't need to talk about the rules of the game.Anyway, there is no stable rear, and it doesn't really matter to the rebels whether there is a rear or not.

At that point, no matter whether Earl Pierce is willing or not, he can only show his family background and fight the rebels to the end.

After hesitating for a moment, Earl Pierce, who came to his senses, looked at the rebel camp outside the castle, and said ruthlessly: "The order is passed on, ordering all the nobles to come within three days.

Tell them that the two counties of Wyton and Wright, which were plagued by the rebels, are waiting for them.As long as they made great contributions in the next battle, the unowned fiefdom would be their spoils of war.

I promise with the honor of the Dalton family: I will report the truth to the capital to ensure that every meritorious official receives a matching treatment. "

You have to bear the troubles you cause yourself.If you want to mix in the noble circle, you must abide by some rules.

In order to save the situation, Earl Pierce had to spend a lot of money.After all, this wave of fun is too big for his family to handle.

Even if he wanted to monopolize the land of the two counties, the capital would not agree.

If they don't want to find a way to get the local nobles to endorse, the Dalton family can't bear the pressure, and maybe the royal family will intervene.

In case the royal family caught the handle and took the opportunity to entrust a prince to come over, it would be hard to say who would be the boss in the southeast province.

Earl Pierce is not in vain to be able to sit firmly on one side of the princes.After sorting out the interests that may be involved, he decisively made a choice.

……

When the speed slows down and advances ten miles a day, the march becomes a tour of mountains and rivers.The tense war atmosphere no longer exists, but the atmosphere of entertainment is getting stronger day by day.

Along the way, the team of the alliance has grown rapidly, and more and more nobles have joined the group.

The power of many people is not necessarily great, but the information must be well-informed.After everyone mobilized contacts to inquire deliberately, more and more information came, and everyone gradually understood what was going on.

The information became transparent, and the nobles, including Hudson, let go of their worries.

After a moment of silence for the hapless nobles of Wright and Wyton Counties, everyone criticized Earl Pierce, wishing to eat his flesh and drink his blood.

Of course, it is limited to verbal criticism.It is still difficult for everyone to come forward and uphold justice.After all, everyone is a smart person, and they know how much they are capable of.

The only thing to do is to continue to be passive.

Since the rebellion was indulged by Earl Pierce, he has to be responsible for the aftermath, otherwise the kingdom will be held accountable and there will be no good fruit for him.

There are people on the front line, and the rebels will not be able to harm their own land, so everyone will not panic.

As for the issue of delaying the date, everyone has already thought of a countermeasure, and the excuse is ready-made-the rebel attack.

If there is a rebel attack, there will be, the truth is not important.

Earl Pierce had an unshirkable responsibility for the rebellion, which was equivalent to a ready-made handle, and there was no way to get to the bottom of this issue.

It wasn't until Earl Pierce's military order came again that the situation changed.Compared with the purely compulsory service before, there are now promises of rewards in kind.
