Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords
#57 - I am guilty
With his focus on his dantian, Li Wei said in a deep voice, "I am Baron Li Wei, the pioneering lord of the Debe Kingdom, the master of Highcliff Keep, and I have come with your princess, Beresina, to assist you."
A murmur arose from the four-blade-high city wall.
They didn't know where this baron from the Debe Kingdom came from, nor had they heard of Highcliff Keep, but they were very clear about their own female clan leader.
With Li Wei's eyesight, he could see some archers lowering their arrows in the moonlight.
Soon a childish voice responded, "I want to see my sister."
In the moonlight, a burly figure also climbed onto the city wall.
"It's Meer."
Beresina said happily in Li Wei's arms.
Having received Beresina's confirmation, Li Wei nodded, put down the shield in front of him, and used both hands to hold the little girl's buttocks and lift her above his head.
This was to make it easier for the opposite side to clearly see her face in the dark night sky.
If the situation was wrong, Li Wei could quickly put Beresina down and protect her in his arms.
"Meer, it's me!"
With her buttocks being held, Beresina's cheeks flushed red, but she immediately waved to the tall figure on the city wall.
"It's Sister Beresina!"
Standing on the city wall, Meer easily saw the figure being held up by the iron can below, thanks to the moonlight; it was his sister whom he had been longing for.
"Open the city gate and let my sister and her followers in."
Meer quickly ordered the Federate remnant warriors to open a hardwood door wrapped in iron skin, estimated to weigh a thousand pounds, to both sides.
Having announced so many titles earlier, only to be casually summarized as a follower by someone who inexplicably demoted him by several levels, the lord clutched his chest, feeling a surge of anger.
This treasure, is this the person who called him a broken iron can earlier?!!
"Enter the city."
With an angry shout, the Highcliff Keep team filed in through the city gate, with Li Wei bringing up the rear, a depressed expression on his face inside his iron helmet.
Behind the wall was a large gentle slope, and after walking up, it was a flat ground with four watchtowers, full of archers.
Further back were rows of wooden buildings that were exceptionally exquisite compared to Highcliff Keep, mostly two to three stories high, neatly arranged in rows, with the ground paved with flat stone roads.
Some houses also had a small garden in front, planted with vegetables such as tomatoes.
This was less like a tribe and more like a small town.
Right now, the stars and moon were hanging in the sky, it was late at night, and although things could barely be seen under the moonlight, these wooden buildings were lit up with lights.
In the open space, in addition to the Federate warriors wearing leather armor and holding wooden spears, there were also many women and children running back and forth to help the wounded.
These wounded were either unlucky enough to be bitten by arrows at night, or had a wound on their chest where the flesh was turned out by a sharp blade.
In fact, if it weren't for the protection of the city wall, the Dala tribe, like jackals and wolves, would have broken through this town long ago.
This city wall was built between two cliffs and was only about twenty blades long.
Such a narrow distance meant that all four hundred warriors of the Dala tribe could not be fully deployed to participate in the siege, which made the pressure faced by the Federate remnants far less severe than it seemed.
It seemed that this group of remnants had a couple of tricks up their sleeves to survive in the Kas Mountains for hundreds of years.
The lord, who took off his helmet and held it in his arms, examined the location where this small town was built and gave a fair evaluation.
The return of the clan leader made the Federate warriors show joy, but it could not dispel the hidden sadness and the desolation that permeated the air.
"Sister, I didn't expect you to come back at this time."
A tall figure walked out of the crowd, a full one blade and nine tall, burly, but with a childish face, the happiness on his face briefly covering the bleak sadness.
"???"
Li Wei looked at Beresina, who was less than one blade and five tall beside him, and then at this brother who was three points stronger than him, and he couldn't figure out how these two were actually siblings even if he racked his brains.
Beresina did mention to him that she had a naughty younger brother in the tribe, and the lord had always thought he was just a little kid, but now he was silent.
Is this called naughty?
"Meer, where's Grandpa Mondy?"
Beresina's eyes searched behind Meer, as if trying to find someone who didn't exist.
"Grandpa Mondy, Uncle Sith, and brother are all dead, so I'm temporarily acting as the clan leader, it's all my fault, I couldn't protect them." Meer sniffed, tears almost falling, but he tried his best to hold them back.
From the moment she came in and only saw Meer, Beresina had some guesses, but when she really heard this bad news, her body couldn't help but tremble, and she took a deep breath.
Now she was the clan leader of the Federate remnants, and if she showed sadness at this time, it would be an unparalleled blow to morale.
"Meer, it's not your fault."
"Now that Grandpa Mondy and the others are gone, you have to be strong."
Beresina stood on tiptoe and patted Meer's shoulder, who was bending over at the right time, and comforted him softly.
Looking at Beresina, who clearly had a baby face like a little girl, but was actually looking serious like a little adult, standing on tiptoe to comfort Meer, who was one blade and nine tall and very burly.
Li Wei really couldn't hold back, please forgive him for laughing in this serious scene.
As everyone knows, while God opens a door for you, he also closes a window for you.
God obviously gave Meer a strong body, but his mind was still like a child who hadn't grown up, he seemed smart and alert, but he was far from being able to take on a responsibility, which was obviously known to all the Federate remnants.
Like a lost child finally finding his mother, and a rushing river finding an outlet, Meer's tears, which he tried his best to hold back, could no longer be suppressed, flowing from the corners of his eyes across his cheeks, and finally converging on his chin, turning into teardrops that fell on the ground.
"What are you laughing at? Are you laughing at me?" Meer suddenly raised his head to look at Li Wei, his voice with a sob.
"Uh…"
I'm guilty…
A certain lord didn't expect his little action to be caught on the spot.
…
"This is Baron Li Wei, the pioneering lord of Debe, the champion of the Debe Arena, and also a knight with chivalry, from now on we will be his subjects."
Beresina introduced solemnly.
Most of the Federate remnants knew what she had done this time, and they bowed slightly with curiosity.
Even if this lord had some embellishments, he would obviously not be too bad with so many titles.
Even Li Wei, who had a thick skin, blushed when he was praised so seriously in front of a group of people.
"You must be my brother-in-law?" At this moment, Meer asked with an excited face.
