Chapter 103

Hukaro City is not too far from Boris City.

Even with the army and dozens of donkey carts used for freight, the speed is relatively slow. After walking for a day, they arrived at the destination in the evening.

Unlike the majestic and tall city walls of Boris, the walls of Hukaro City are much 'smaller'.

The walls of Boris were built of stone.

Hukaluo's city wall is made of mud bricks, and its height is only a little over five meters, which is higher than Hardy's transformation into a nightmare knight.

Hardy guessed that if he gave his nightmare form a light body technique, he could jump over this city wall.

As the sun sets, the city is shrouded in orange light, making it look very warm.

At the gate of the city, merchant caravans and civilians came in and out, and there was a little harmony.

There is no dedicated military passage in this city, so we have to squeeze in a city gate with ordinary people.

Just waiting for him to approach, the civilians all hid aside.

The passage of the city gate was empty.

There is no way, anyone who sees more than 100 soldiers and more than 100 cavalry walking towards him will retreat subconsciously.

But when the guards at the gate saw the army coming, they subconsciously closed the gate.

Rogge ran to the front first, and shouted: "The new owner of Hukaluo City, Viscount Hardy, is here to take office, why don't you open the city gate to welcome him?"

The team leader who was in charge of guarding the gate looked at the 200-strong army below and swallowed.

Now in Hukaluo City, there are only more than 100 guards at most. He looked down at the angel flag played by Hardy and others, and then looked at the more than 100 cavalry covered in silver armor, and broke out in a cold sweat.

He already knew that the people below should be genuine, but still shouted: "Please wait a moment, I need to ask His Excellency Eiffel for instructions to verify your authenticity."

Roger didn't feel anything. In his opinion, it's normal to verify his body.

But when he returned to Hardy, he found that his master was smiling strangely.

"Master, is there a problem?"

"When I was chatting with Mrs. Sissy, I learned one thing. Eiffel should be the housekeeper of Mrs. Sissy's girlhood."

Hukaluo City was originally the fiefdom of Mrs. Sissy, and she spent here from the age of 11 to her marriage at the age of 15.

Rogge came to his senses: "What does the master mean, this butler of Eiffel has become Hukaro's de facto master?"

"It should be." Hardy nodded: "Otherwise, I can't understand why the defenders would ask a butler for instructions."

Rogge immediately became angry: "How dare a commoner dare to do this..."

He couldn't find an adjective.

Hardy shook his head indifferently: "It is probably because the Jeanna family has not taken care of this place. At most, it is because the tax money has been handed over, so let it be ignored."

"Master, do you want us to prepare for the siege?" Rogge smiled darkly.

Thanks to Hardy's behavior of throwing coins, the soldiers under his command are not afraid of fighting at all.

Even longing for a battle.

If you win, you get a lot of money, and if you die, your family is guaranteed, so you are afraid of a ball.

"Hey, I ordered to set up a siege formation." Hardy rode his horse back and walked away from the shooting range of the opponent's archers.

Hardy felt that it was right to be prepared.

He is not afraid of hurting the other party, he is the legitimate lord of Hukaluo City, and he is right in whatever he does.

But if the other party really dared to have some crooked thoughts, it would be a correct choice to go straight in.

After this order was issued, both the infantry and the cavalry took up positions.

The team leader on the city wall trembled in fright.

But even so, he still didn't let anyone open the city gate.

Sitting on the steed, Hardy looked at Hukaluo City from a distance, and sighed, "I thought I could take over smoothly, but in the end, something has to happen?"

A cavalryman in silver armor walked up to Hardy, and the knight on the horse opened his mask to reveal his face. It was the knight Maloch.

He looked at Hardy and asked, "Your Excellency, Viscount, we don't have siege equipment, so it's a bit difficult to force open the city gate."

"It's okay, this city gate is made of wood, I'll knock it open later."

Listening to Hardy's understatement, Malloc swallowed subconsciously, then stepped back.

He thought of Hardy's nightmare knight form, that kind of giant monster, it is really easy to break through a broken wooden city gate.

After waiting for a while, the sky in front of him was about to completely darken. When Hardy was about to transform into a Nightmare Knight and charge, the Eiffel steward finally appeared on the city wall.

When he came up, he still didn't care about it: "Isn't it just a viscount? Don't make a fuss, our Rangna family..."

Then he saw the army in battle formation under the city wall.

All of a sudden, he was so scared that his whole body was sweating, and at the same time he hurriedly shouted: "Quick, quick, open the city gate."

"Don't you need to test it?"

"Test a ghost, if you dare to say that you want to test your body, the other party will call in."

The city gate opened quickly, and Rogge led the infantry in first.

Then came Hardy and the logistics troops, and the cavalry was cut off.

When Hardy entered the city, he saw an elderly man kneeling on the side of the road.

This old man is dressed luxuriously, not only in good quality, but also in good quality.

Hardy sat on the steed and looked down at him: "Are you Eiffel?"

"Your Excellency Viscount, yes."

"I heard Mrs. Sissy talk about you. He said that you are a very honest and reliable person."

Eiffel's expression paused for a moment, then he smiled and said, "I haven't seen Miss Sissy for a long time, and I miss her very much."

"You can go to Jeanne's Manor in Boris City to find her and continue to serve her."

"I'm old, clumsy, and inflexible. Now I'm prone to making mistakes, so I won't bother Miss Sissy."

The other party was respectful and answered every question, but Hardy still heard the dissatisfaction from the other party's tone.

"Since you're old, you can retire. I have my own housekeeper. Take care of yourself."

Eiffel paused, raised his head, and was about to utter an angry voice, but then he saw Hardy's half-smile face.

He was handsome, but there was coldness in his eyes.

Eiffel shook his body, immediately lowered his head, and said in frustration, "Yes, Your Excellency the Viscount."

At that moment, Hardy stopped looking at him and rode away.

After walking for a while, the Maroc cavalryman came up and asked in a low voice, "Your Excellency Hardy, won't you give that old man enough severance pay?"

Because Hardy has always given the impression that he is very considerate and caring for his subordinates.

This kind of direct expulsion doesn't seem to fit Hardy's image.

But he trusts Hardy not to mess around for no reason.

Hardy said with a smile: "It seems that your previous life was quite poor."

Malloc didn't understand even more, what does this have to do with him?
Hardy explained: "The suit on his body is about the same price as your armor and horse armor combined. Are you still worried that he will starve to death?"

Malloc's eyes widened.
