Start as Inherited Baroness

"The situation in the kingdom has become even more corrupt these days. Several bands of bandits are causing trouble in the Lingu area, and the trade routes are seriously threatened.

In addition, there are changes in the Lanceport family in the West Hills. They seem to be intending to shrink their troops, guard the pass, and sit on the sidelines.

Many families in the North Wind Land are also training their troops and preparing for war..." Adela spoke charmingly like she was talking about family treasures.

“Chaos is the ladder and this is our opportunity.

However, the population of Western Cedi is too small after all, and it will take time to develop. "

Simon kissed her and then said.

"Don't worry, once there is chaos in the mainland, there will be no shortage of refugees. What we have to do is to stock up on food and grass... Hmm!

ah! "

Simon could no longer hear what Adela said later. They were immersed in fiery joy together...

After satisfying the young woman's desire, they sat down separately and started talking seriously.

"The Cisse Army still has more than 20,000 people, and the Protector Army among them has no armor and does not pose much of a threat.

In addition, Prince Segel also has a direct army of more than 5,000 people, called the Fighter Legion.

The rest can't be more than 30,000 if they are cobbled together here and there, and Changxiang collar doesn't have any militiamen for them to recruit..."

Adela's face turned crimson, she smiled and said proudly.

"It seems like our troops are still small." Simon said calmly.

"You must have at least 10,000 soldiers, and together we have almost 20,000.

Segel cannot send out all his troops. He always leaves some soldiers to defend the city, so he cannot defeat us.

As long as we maintain the current situation, in a few years, our military strength will definitely be stronger than his.

At that time, we can attack the Changxiang collar..." Adela analyzed based on her own knowledge.

"Sitting back and waiting for death is not an option. We are on the defensive side, waiting to work. We must occupy a favorable position and give them a good look.

Your intelligence is better than mine. Pay attention to Prince Segel’s march route these days..."

The two of them discussed for a while, and were gentle for a while. After agreeing on certain things, they each got dressed, calmed down, and then walked out of the lord's hall.

"Let me take a good look at your army. I hope there will be surprises~" Adela followed Simon half a step behind and said with a smile.

"Anyway, I have the strength to fight." He smiled slightly and said calmly.

After a while, they reached the high platform in front of the inner city training ground.

Five thousand soldiers were gathered in strict formation on the field, all golden and wearing bronze armor.

"Bronze armor? It seems that the rumors are true. There is copper mine in Yong Yi's collar!" Adela said with an increasingly charming smile.

Simon pretended to be attracted to it and stared at her.

"Sarit!"

Simon shouted.

"Yes! Sir!" Sarit heard the words and immediately waved the flag, and the horn was blown accordingly.

Wuwu——wuwu——

"Kill! Kill! Kill!!!"

tread! tread! tread!

"Raise your shield!!"

Wow! ! ! The soldiers knelt down uniformly, holding their shields in front of them.

"This... this..." Adela stared closely at the scene on the training ground, too surprised to speak.

"How is my army compared to the Cisse Army?" Simon asked with a smile.

"Who helped you train this soldier?" Adela didn't answer directly, she just bit her red lips and asked.

"You don't have to worry so much. In short, I'm not afraid of Prince Segel." Simon smiled.

"Oh, you hide it so well~ Let's do this, I will give you a gift later, you will definitely not be able to put it down~"

Adela's eyes were full of emotion, almost oozing with water.

"Oh? What is it? I'm really looking forward to it.

Let's go, I've ordered the kitchen to prepare a rich table of delicious food, let's go and enjoy it. Simon grinned.

...

In this way, Adela stayed in the Fort of Fortitude for several days. During this period, Simon summoned the knights, held several meetings, and formulated several battle plans.

Oh, by the way, it is worth mentioning that the gift given by this woman turned out to be a stunning beauty.

It was the one Simon had seen before, the female mage who had followed a certain team to assassinate Prince Feidi.

She probably has part of the blood of elves, her beauty is breathtaking, and her figure is extremely good.

Somehow, he was taken under Adela's command.

Simon talked with him all night, but unexpectedly his bayonet turned red.

Surprised, he inquired in detail and learned some of the causes and consequences. It was said that Prince Feidi was also fascinated by the girl at that time and was about to take her as his lover that night.

But when Adela found out about it, she intervened, forcibly stopped and took away the little goblin, which ruined the good deeds and once put the relationship between husband and wife on the verge of collapse...

Simon listened to this remark as a story, and he didn't care if it was true or false. Anyway, the beauty's beauty, youthfulness, and shyness cannot be faked.

In addition, he is more interested in the shadow magic of this assassin female mage. If he gets this woman, he also gets the magic.

Adela obviously had bad intentions in sending such a beautiful woman to trouble her. He knew it well, but he did not refuse anyone who came because he was not afraid.

Now that he has a strong army and strong horses, he is not afraid of any conspiracy at all.

But after Simon played with it once, he placed it in the outer castle.

Because after he recruited the girl into the mage group, he found that her loyalty was only 85, and she obviously had something serious on her mind.

It will take some time to come up with a strategy. Simon is about to go to war and has no time to care about this.

After more than ten days of busy preparation, the East Guard Corps and the West Guard Corps were ready, with a total of 13,500 soldiers.

In addition, there were 700 to 800 baggage carriages and more than 2,000 horses.

Simon's 2,000 Brave Guards were all on horseback.

Among them, there were more than 600 cavalrymen, and the rest were mounted infantrymen, riding travel horses with good endurance.

The equipment of these 2,000 people was almost armed to the teeth, almost all of them were heavily armored, but the style was not very uniform, which lost a lot of style.

"It's a pity that the iron ingots are sold out, otherwise my Brave Guards would have been fully equipped." Simon sighed in his heart.

"My Lord Earl, the soldiers are ready and can set off at any time." Sarit came to report.

"Well! Set off!" Simon rode on the Red Flame Horse and ordered.

"Yes!" Sarit took the order and left.

Not long after, the army crossed the Qingshui River and came to the Stone Territory.

Now this place is also under his actual control, so the journey is smooth. After a few days, they passed through Sanshan Territory and came to Muye Territory.

The 8,000 soldiers under Adela's command had already gathered and were ready to go.

Simon carefully observed this army and found that they were fully equipped with armor. There were about 3,000 sets of iron light armor, and the others were basically iron-studded leather armor or leather armor.

There were also a few equipped with bronze armor, which was more expensive than iron-studded leather armor and was generally not equipped for ordinary soldiers.

The weapons looked cold and shining, and they looked pretty good.

In general, this army of more than 8,000 people has fully reached the level of the kingdom's regular army, and its combat power is not weak.

"Adela's bargaining chips are not small." Simon looked at the army in the distance and said secretly.

At this time, Hilde, who was the vanguard, rode over on horseback and reported: "My Lord Earl! Princess Adela invites you to the front for a meeting.

It seems that there is an urgent matter."
