Take the ride to dominate the game

Chapter 10 Are You Afraid of Blackwood?
Stimulate the law.

This is an old method, simple but effective.

There were three heirs of the great nobles present, and the rest of the minor nobles, the second son of the family, the free knights, the sworn knights, etc., totaled about 40 people.

Coupled with their entourage and the guard sent by the landlord Shilicheng, the entire team can reach a size of three to four hundred people.

There is no need to summon the soldiers of the Bracken master's family, and it is more than enough to deal with the 150 soldiers of the Blackwood family.

As for the contradiction between Shuangbu, in Hejian, even the dogs of noble families have heard of it a little bit.

All the people present were Hejian nobles, and Hendry would not lose face in front of them.

"I hear what you mean by this suggestion. Could it be that you are afraid of Blackwood?" Arthur asked back.

Hendry's complexion changed slightly, he glared at Arthur, and said, "My imposing Genos nephew, will he be afraid of a little Blackwood?"

When the surrounding nobles heard Hendry's statement, they immediately scolded Arthur:
"Afraid, since when have we, Bracken, been afraid of Blackwood?"

"How dare you try to figure out Hendry's mind, you are a big-ass knight?"

"You inquire about Harrenhal from Riverrun, and see who is afraid of whom?"

They were obviously outsiders, and Arthur belonged to the Bracken family, but the tone of this group of nobles seemed to be that Arthur was an outsider.

But this is a good thing, as long as they continue to output, they can always arouse Hendry's competitiveness.

But the nephew of Earl Janos had a different way of thinking from Arthur's.

Hendry waited for the sycophants behind him to stop talking, and said again: "Although we are not afraid of Blackwood, don't expect me to send troops. We are civilized people, and it's okay to let a group of soldiers from poor people fight here and there. mean."

Arthur was slightly surprised that this Hendry's thinking was so advanced that he was willing to plan for Xiaobing.

He thought for a while, and asked: "But Blackwood robbed my subjects, maybe he is killing them right now, is that interesting?"

"Those bastards, when they die, they die."

"That is, they only lost their lives, but our hunting mood was disturbed."

"Go away, there is no place for you to talk here."

The group of sycophants began to chatter again, making Arthur a little annoyed.

Hendry glanced back, and the martial arts arena suddenly fell silent.

Then he turned to Arthur and said, "Do you know how much it costs to train a farmer into a qualified soldier, complete with weapons and armor? I won't let them die in vain."

He rested his chin on his right hand, and said again: "But your subjects... Well, this is also a problem. They are also from Bracken, and I can't let them die miserably."

Hendry was silent for a while, tapping his index finger on the armrest of the chair non-stop.

Karel Vance on the left suddenly laughed, "Since your appeal is to prevent Arthur's subjects from being plundered by the Blackwoods, why don't we go to Earl Titos and make it clear? We The face of these people is enough for Titos to ignore Arthur's kidnapping of his son."

"Titos is not easy to talk to, at least he has to show force to keep him safe." Marco Piper added.

"A show of force? Sending troops over there will definitely cause conflicts, and conflicts will definitely lead to death, and the dead will cost money, which is not worth it." Hendry's tone changed a bit, as if he didn't want to send troops.

Arthur was a little angry, this Hendry, whimpering, was like a bitch.

"Just tell me whether you will send troops or not?" Marco Piper may have been impatient with Hendry's hesitation.

Arthur was not sure what this Hendry was thinking, and asked straight to the point: "Under what circumstances can you agree to send troops?"

"Of course it's bloodless." Hendry replied quickly, "Well, I'll give you a chance."

"what chance?"

"If you can win the three knights I appointed, I agree to send troops to negotiate peace with the Blackwood family."

Hendry's original intention was not to care about this matter.

But with so many people present today, he wouldn't lose face to Arthur, Bracken's own family.

So the United States asked for a chance.

Judging from Arthur's size and rumors that he was not good at fighting, he could be defeated by appointing three random people.

In this way, there will be no troops, and there will be an explanation to Arthur.

I gave you a chance, didn't I?It's just that you didn't grasp it!

"Fighting? I like it." Marco Pepper excitedly slapped the armrest of the seat.

Arthur was overjoyed, but he didn't expect Hendry to decline in such a way.

But what the nephew of Earl Janos didn't expect was that the current Arthur likes to fight the most.

"Then it's settled, as long as I win the three knights you designated, you will send five hundred troops to drive out the Blackwood soldiers in my territory?" He suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and carefully finalized the plan.

Hendry nodded with a smile.

Marco Pepper is obviously a fighting enthusiast. After Hendry confirmed the gameplay, he stood up and directed the followers of the crowd to start setting up the venue.

For a while, he asked the servants to bring more chairs, and for a while, he scolded a certain knight to move him away.

Finally, after a tumultuous commotion, forty or fifty noble knights sat down, melons, fruits and drinks were also prepared, and everything was ready.

"Well, Marco, Karel, how about we appoint a knight each, how about that?" Sitting on the main seat outside the arena, Hendry asked.

"Excellent, I agree."

"I have no opinion either."

Both agreed.

After some humility, Marco Pepper appointed Arthur's first opponent.

Aigor Merister, a free knight from the Merister family in Sea Front City, has a strong physique and superb martial arts.

After being appointed by Ma Ke, Yige was obviously very excited: "Fortunately, I am not disgraceful, fortunately, I am not disgraceful."

The people around burst into laughter, and someone shouted: "It's a mistake, it's lucky to win."

Yi Ge took the helmet handed over by the servant of Stone Ledge City, turned around and found the shouting person, "One thing, it's just a few strokes to win."

Arthur was also happy. Why are these people so confident?

"Hey, is there anyone who bet? A golden dragon, I bet this Mr. Arthur will win." Someone yelled strangely.

Another burst of laughter.

But obviously someone was tempted. It seemed that Yi Ge was going to win the game, so he might as well make some money.

The free knights are not very rich, and they can earn a little bit.

Looking at the people whispering around, Hendry suggested: "Well, for more fun, I, the landlord, set up a gambling table. What do you think?"

"What a great idea."

"Agree."

"Then Hendry must lose money, because everyone will never suppress that Arthur."

The atmosphere was very active. After thinking about it, Hendry announced the odds:
Egg Mallister, ten to one.

Arthur, one to ten.

In other words, Yi Ge won, betting ten gold dragons and getting one.

Arthur won, and he got ten gold dragons for one gold dragon.

Arthur was annoyed watching the people around him betting enthusiastically.

Because he has no money on him to bet on.

Why did the opportunity to make money slip away?
And Hendry, the landowner, saw that Arthur wanted to bet but didn't act very intimately.

So he yelled, "Hey, cousin, how about I lend you some money so you can beat yourself to win?"
