Phoenix Grand Lord
Chapter 355 The Unlucky Widow
The powerful people and relatives of the lords in Stone Forest Highland Manor have been slaughtered once by Luo Wei. This time, of course, it will be very clean.
Moreover, the number of civilians in Shilin Highland Manor has also reduced from more than 200 households to only about 50 households, and most of the civilians have ran away.
There were very few slaves left in the Stone Forest Highland Manor who escaped after receiving the food.
The current Stone Forest Highland Manor is an empty shell.
And this was all within Luo Wei's expectation.
There was just one more wealthy businessman's widow in the manor who had just been married by the new Lord of Stone Forest Highlands.
This wealthy businessman's widow was originally intended to be married by the previous lord, Eppard, but as soon as she took her to the manor to sleep and before the ceremony could be held, Eppard was caught and executed by Rowe.
As a result, Eppard's two sons fought over the wealthy merchant's widow with a generous dowry. The eldest son chopped off the younger son's big head, and the younger son chopped off the eldest son's small head before he died.
The loss of Xiaotou does not affect the eldest son's inheritance of the lordship of Stone Forest Highland Manor, nor does it affect the new lord's ability to marry the wealthy businessman's widow whose father slept with but failed to marry.
Although the process is different from what the rich businessman's widow imagined, the result is the same.
In short, this wealthy businessman's widow is the new lord's wife of Stone Forest Heights Manor.
In fact, the fight between the two brothers was also what Edmund wanted.
As their uncle and the lord of Marigolds, Edmund should stop the fight between the two brothers.
But Edmund claimed that he would not interfere for the sake of fairness, but this kind of non-interference allowed the brothers to fight, which was itself unfair.
According to the rules of aristocratic inheritance, the eldest son should have taken over the position of lord. Edmund made a grand statement, but in fact he was condoning his younger son's seizure of power.
Of course, Edmund is not more optimistic about his younger son inheriting Stone Forest Heights Manor. He just wants the two sides to fight to the death, thereby greatly weakening the strength of Stone Forest Heights Manor. Only in this way can he have the opportunity to take back this well-located territory in the future. into your own hands.
The so-called fairness, in the hands of the powerful, is a tool that can be easily picked up and used.
As for the relationship between uncles and nephews? It's all just words.
Edmund has always relied on such insidiousness to reach his current position step by step.
Now, Stone Forest Heights is completely empty, and the only person in charge of the entire mansion is this unlucky widow.
Acting Centurion Newas escorted the trembling unfortunate widow before Rowe.
Not to mention, this widow is quite pretty.
Luo Wei saw that she was only wearing a thin pajamas, with her chest exposed, and he was immediately puzzled, "Madam, it's not dark yet.
Why are you dressed like this? "
The unlucky widow looked unlucky and lowered her head in shame without answering.
Newas said gruffly, "Sir, she was riding her slave when we found her."
"Oh," Luo Wei nodded in realization, "It's no wonder."
The unlucky widow knelt down and begged: "Honorable Mr. Luo Wei, we have no grudges in the past and today. I even hate Stone Forest Heights Manor more than you do. Please be merciful and let me go. I am willing to remove me from my life." The wealth brought by my previous husband is dedicated to you.”
Luo Wei smiled, "The biggest mistake made by many people who kneel in front of me and beg me for mercy is that they think those properties still belong to them."
The unfortunate widow's face suddenly turned pale.
Luo Wei continued: "You and I have no grudges from time to time, but since you came to Stone Forest Highlands Manor, you are naturally aiming at the status of lord and wife that Stone Forest Heights Manor can bring you, even if you have not. No matter what you enjoy, your heart is not innocent.
"So, I'm sorry, madam, but I have to kill you to avenge my Flor relatives who died in the Rose family's betrayal.
With that said, Luo Wei took out his crossbow and aimed at the unlucky widow's head.
The unfortunate widow quickly hugged Luo Wei's thigh and begged, "Master Luo Wei, don't kill me! I, I can be your maid! I can do anything! Really!"
Luo Wei shook his head regretfully, "I'm sorry, madam, you don't deserve it."
"Ah?" The unfortunate widow didn't understand at all. How could she, a master with the status of a lord's wife, be unworthy of being a maid?
Before she could speak again, Luo Wei decisively pulled the trigger of the one-handed crossbow and shot the unlucky widow's head with an arrow.
The unfortunate widow's body fell limply to the ground, making no sound.
With a calm look on his face, Luo Wei bent down, picked up the crossbow arrow from his chaotic brain, and wiped it clean.
Such execution scenes are nothing new.
Charlize and the bell ringers were all used to it, but the new first mate Hayes gasped in shock.
Mate Hayes had always thought that Luo Wei was just an unawakened pretty-faced lord with no power, and he only knew how to make wine and barbecue.
But it was only now that Chief Officer Hayes finally realized..."
Luo Wei kills decisively!
First Officer Hayes is a professional soldier, so First Officer Hayes understands better than anyone how important a decisive commander is!
It can be seen from this that Luo Wei's blitzkrieg at Stone Forest Heights Manor was not a fool's errand without knowing the tactics, but he had long understood the weak defense here!
It’s not that Luo Wei doesn’t understand military affairs, but he understands military affairs very well!
I used to think that Luo Wei would never be able to use troops like a god, but now it seems that as a commander who is so decisive and decisive, Luo Wei's control over the use of troops is definitely not bad!
Mate Hayes began to truly admire Rowe.
Having said that, this widow was indeed unlucky. She was riding a slave so well. Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened. Stone Forest Heights Manor was taken down in minutes. She was forcibly pulled out while she was enjoying herself, and she was eventually shot in the face. .
But if she hadn't been greedy and wanted to be a lord's wife, she probably wouldn't have died violently.
Of course, Luo Wei killed this unfortunate widow to avenge the Flor family, but revenge was only a superficial excuse.
If it was really just for revenge, then this unlucky widow could be killed or not.
The real reason is: we cannot leave any consequences for the future complete takeover of Stone Forest Heights Manor.
If the lord's wife of Stone Forest Heights Manor did not die, there would be a dispute over the ownership of the manor.
Even if there is no controversy in the first place, there will be people with ulterior motives who take advantage of this and create controversy.
Therefore, it is necessary to kill the lord and the lord's wife of the Stone Forest Highland Manor.
Is the unfortunate widow pitiful?
Pitiful.
But to pity the misfortune of others is to bear the fate of others.
There are so many unfortunate people in this world, who can bear them?
After killing the unlucky widow, Luo Wei divided the bell-ringing army into two parts. One part went to collect the dowry property brought by the unlucky widow, and found the back-door path in the stone forest heights in advance to keep the back-door path clear so that the bell-ringing army could be at any time. Get away whole body.
Another part of the bell-ringing army was led by Acting Centurion Newas, who used stones and wood from the Stone Forest Highlands to repair the gate of the manor.
And build four defensive arrow towers in the manor.
At this time, the advantages of the Bell Ringing Army were fully realized.
When fighting, they were extremely brave soldiers rushing forward, and when building, they were experienced carpenters, stonemasons, and bricklayers. Under the leadership of Acting Centurion Newas, four simple arrow towers were built in less than 2 hours. The basic construction is completed.
First Officer Hayes, who followed, was completely stunned.
He has never seen such... a method of fighting.
He originally thought that after the blitzkrieg at Stone Forest Heights Manor, even if Luo Wei won the first battle, he would be able to boost his own morale and defeat Edmund's morale, so he could retreat as soon as possible.
Such a victory would be enough for an average manor lord to brag about for a long time.
But I never expected that Luo Wei's attack on Stone Forest Heights Manor was not to go back and brag, nor was he to steal the widow's dowry!
Of course, you still have to grab the dowry, and there will be no delay in the incident, but Luo Wei's real tactical purpose is to take advantage of the terrain advantage of Stone Forest Highland Manor and the relaxed mentality of the opposite party to catch their vanguard by surprise. !
It took two hours to build four arrow towers. The construction speed and construction quality of the Bell Ringing Army really opened the eyes of First Officer Hayes!
Such a unit can really be described as "terrible"!
Stone Forest Highland Manor is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and with the four arrow towers built by the Bell Ringing Army, once the enemy's vanguard troops come in, there is no return to the safekeeping!
But - the number of light cavalry of the Bell Ringing Army is still too small. If they don't fight well, they will be surrounded by Edmund!
First Officer Hayes couldn't help but said: "Mr. Rowe, your bell-ringing army is indeed very strong, but if -" - it is better to stop as soon as possible and retreat as early as possible. "
But Luo Wei smiled and said, "Master Hayes, I'm not here to be safe. It's good to be safe, but what I want is victory."
First Officer Hayes took a deep breath, and his blood boiled uncontrollably.
First Officer Hayes's impression of Rowe also completely changed!
At first, First Officer Hayes looked down upon Rowe, a remote and small manor lord with no title and no awakening.
Later, it was discovered that Luo Wei could not only make wine, but also barbecue and make cannons. More importantly, he discovered that even Her Royal Highness Princess Lillian worked for Luo Wei as a head maid. First Officer Hayes' impression of Luo Wei changed.
Later, Mate Hayes discovered that his mistress Anne had already called Rowe "Dad", and Mate Hayes changed his mind even more.
But these two twists have nothing to do with strength, they are just a twist in identity.
And now, after witnessing a series of operations such as Luo Wei easily taking over Stone Forest Heights Manor, decisively shooting the face of the lord's wife in Stone Forest Heights, and using Stone Forest Heights Manor to set up an ambush, First Officer Hayes responded to Luo Wei's actions. My mentality has completely changed.
Although Luo Wei has not awakened, Luo Wei is really powerful.
Even though Luo Wei is young, with Luo Wei's military planning ability, there is no problem in being a captain in the navy!
First Officer Hayes couldn't help but want to be Luo Wei's second-in-command!
It will definitely be fun to serve as Luo Wei's second-in-command and engage in naval battles with the Blood Sail Pirates!
The only thing that made First Officer Hayes feel a little disappointed was that he really came to visit to open his eyes, and he was really of no use.
Mate Hayes couldn't help but become anxious.
Afraid that Luo Wei would use him, but also afraid that Luo Wei would not use him...
In fact, according to Luo Wei's requirements, these four arrow towers were very poorly constructed, but considering the time constraints, being able to create a rough shape is something that no other army can do, and it is enough to ambush and knock. Zhongjun archers.
On each arrow tower, Luo Wei ambushed 10 bell-ringing troops with the most superb shooting skills.
Of the remaining 60 bell ringers, 50 were given to Xia Liz to ambush inside the city gate, and the remaining 10 bell ringers followed Luo Wei to ambush in the mansion, waiting for the arrival of Edmund's vanguard.
Edmund's army was very large, and since he was going to rest in the manor, he would definitely send some of his confidants to the manor to settle down first, and then welcome him into the manor with great fanfare, so that it would appear respectable.
That's right, on Luo Wei's side, this was a very serious war that was related to the life and death of Meilin Valley, while on Edmund's side, this war was seen as an opportunity to show his respectability to the surrounding lords of titles.
To describe it in terms of the earth, it was a show.
Edmund, who was not a noble himself, would never miss any opportunity to show off that he was a noble.
Therefore, Edmund would definitely come to the Stone Forest Highlands Manor to rest, and would definitely send a group of vanguards to the Stone Forest Highlands to prepare to welcome him and create a respectable atmosphere.
Luo Wei estimated that the vanguard would arrive at Stone Forest Highlands Manor at least half an hour earlier than Edmund's main force.
So, it was this half-hour time difference that was used.
This tactic of interspersing in front of the enemy's main force was like dancing on the edge of a knife. It not only required courage, carefulness, and courage, but also strong strength and super military control.
Otherwise, once the ambush at Stone Forest Highlands Manor was caught by the vanguard of the opposite side, the war would be over directly.
After waiting for half an hour, the sky began to darken,
and a troop with a marigold flag and the flag of the lord of Stone Forest Highlands Manor headed towards Stone Forest Highlands Manor.
The bell-ringing army responsible for observation on the top of the city immediately reported the news to Luo Wei.
Luo Wei nodded slightly, then closed his eyes slightly and activated the feather's insight, using the power of the phoenix to investigate the situation of the vanguard.
This troop had about 200 people.
Among them, at least 150 were slave soldiers, and only 50 were lord soldiers.
There were also a dozen people riding on horses.
The leader was Edmund's eldest son, Andre, the leader of the "Wounded" Knights.
Using Andre to lead this vanguard, it seems that Edmund attaches great importance to the dignity of entering the Stone Forest Highlands Manor.
Next to Andre, there are two level 3 magicians wearing magician robes. These must be two of the 10 magic students brought by Plank.
Of these two magicians, one looks very old, more than 50 years old, and the other looks more normal, about 30 years old.
