This is a valley that is not affected by wind and snow. There are many cultivated fields in the warm valley. This place belongs to Lordship, one of Viscount Dragoon.
Tens of thousands of troops were stationed here, and in the mansion of the former Lord Knightdom, Viscount Dragoon invited a group of nobles.
The battle between Ryan and Artel in his hands was passed on to other nobles.
"Through this war, we really learned something from that Baron of the Frozen Earth. We really can't rush the war."
"An army composed of slaves can easily collapse and has limited combat effectiveness. A hasty war will aggravate this result."
The one who spoke was Baron Enzo. Of course Viscount Dragoon couldn't praise Ryan personally, but Baron Enzo didn't have to worry.
"Our war with Viscount Miles also cannot be rushed."
After Enzo finished speaking, he looked at Viscount Dragoon.
"Lord Viscount, do you have any good ideas?"
Viscount Dragoon coughed, attracted all the attention, then looked at these nobles and said.
"Zero Crossing City, we can't get in. Only those who are as brave as Orcs can capture that city."
Although they say this, these nobles all know that, let alone paying for their lives, even several times more people may not be able to break into the county guard's city. Otherwise, why would Miles Family and Viscount Dragoon be so determined to get that city?
How was Cold Mountain County's city destroyed in the first place? That was hundreds of thousands of the Orc Army, including the city that took Black Goat Orc Warriors to conquer.
"So... I plan to force them out and fight us outside."
"But, how do we force them out? They will definitely not want to come out."
Some Baron couldn't help but ask.
Viscount Dragoon said with a confident expression:
"We are replacing more and better land, not fighting for war. Although they are in Zero Crossing City, except for the Miles Family, not all nobles are in Zero Crossing City. They have their own territories."
"This..."
The nobles looked at each other and couldn't help but hesitate and deny.
"But Lord Viscount, nobles are plundering the territories of other nobles for no reason. If this spreads, we will be cast aside by the entire empire and even the nobles of South. The honor of the family..."
Someone said hesitantly, Viscount Dragoon also looked serious.
"The reputation of the family and the glory of the nobles must not be desecrated. We cannot do things that nobles should not do."
"So we shouldn't plunder other nobles' territories before starting a war."
Enzo raised his head, looked at these nobles and said:
"So, we have to start the war first."
"Huh? Haven't we started the war yet?"
A Lordship said blankly, he felt that his brain was not enough.
"A war? Of course it has begun, but noble gentlemen, this war is between the Viscount Dragoon family and Viscount Miles Family, not you."
Enzo looked at a Lordship.
"Baronet Klaus, you are Lord Viscount's Lordship, but I remember that your Knightdom land is in the middle of Zero Crossing Prefecture, between two mountains, and is surrounded by the land of Baronet Hensley?"
Baronet Klaus nodded and said:
"That damn guy Hensley was against me before, and now he has taken refuge with Viscount Miles."
"So."
Enzo said with a smile:
"Isn't it enough that you launch a war against Baronet Hensley based on ancient grudges and noble etiquette?"
"At that time, Baronet Hensley will definitely bring his army back to his territory from Zero Crossing City. If he refuses your declaration of war, then you can occupy his land openly."
"When the time comes, that territory will belong to you."
"He will definitely come out and fight me."
Baronet Klaus said, and then seemed to react.
"Each of us declared war on the nobles around Viscount Miles. Even Viscount Miles couldn't stop them from leaving, but..."
"But between the Viscount and Miles Family, Viscount Miles will definitely not leave Zero Crossing City."
"Of course he doesn't have to leave."
Viscount Dragoon spoke, and he looked at Baronet Klaus with great confidence.
"Klaus, you are the Lordship of my territory. If you want to start a war with another Lordship, as the noble you are attached to, how can I not send soldiers to help you win?"
"I will support each of your nobles in starting a territorial war. If that old guy Miles has nothing to say, then there will be no nobles attached to him in the entire Zero Crossing Prefecture."
"Do you still think that old guy Miles won't come out?"
A pair of eyes lit up, and they were excited.
"Lord Viscount, your strategy also impresses Deities."
"Hahahaha!"
After these nobles left, Dragon looked at Baron Roach who had not moved.
"Baron Roach, if your method works, then I will fully support the reconstruction of your territory. I guarantee in the name of the Dragoon Family that it will exceed your previous territory."
Baron Roach stood up and performed a noble etiquette respectfully.
"It is my honor to serve you."
"Well, don't worry. If we win by then, Baron of the Frozen Earth, it won't be a big deal. The wealth you compensated in the first place will all be returned."
Roach raised his head with great excitement.
"You will succeed."
I have to say that Viscount Dragoon's method is very effective.
In the next few days, of the more than 10,000 troops in the valley, less than 2,000 were left. All the rest of the soldiers followed the nobles and declared war on the nobles who were attached to Viscount Miles.
Their troops appeared directly in the noble territories, causing panic among the civilians in the territories.
And these panics, with deliberate instructions, quickly reached the ears of the nobles in Zero Crossing City.
"Lord Viscount, that damn guy Klaus is actually plundering my territory. He has betrayed the honor of the nobility. I will go back immediately and chop off his head."
In Zero Crossing City, all the nobles gathered at the manor of the Miles Family. They were angry and frightened that soldiers appeared in their territory.
"Lord Viscount, my butler told me that among those soldiers, there was actually the flag of the Viscount Dragoon family. I... my army can deal with that damn guy, but I am no match for Viscount Dragoon's army."
Many nobles were chattering away, but Viscount Miles, who was sitting at the head and had to lie down, had extremely gloomy eyes.
"Damn Dragon, for using such insidious and cunning methods!"
