Dominate the Game of Thrones with Mount and Blade

Chapter 28 What do you want?

"Genos, this is none of your business." Titos reminded him as he glanced at the Bracken soldiers, who numbered at least a thousand or more.

"Haha." Genos nodded to Edmure across two families of soldiers, and then turned to everyone in Crowtree City, "Arthur is my nephew, I will take care of this matter."

Tytos assessed the situation and felt that his side still had an advantage. At least in front of the Tullys, Bracken did not dare to start a war.

So he said with a strong attitude: "Why, your hands are so long that you stretched them from Shili City across the Red Fork River to me? I have confirmed this with the River Guardian Family and reached an agreement with the owner, Arthur. Do you want to fight with me?"

Genos was obviously over fifty years old, with a wrinkled face and half-bald hair, but now he showed a child-like smile.

Arthur felt a little strange when he saw this kind of smile, and then realized that it was the kind of smile that suddenly came to mind of some bad idea.

"You Blackwoods are so brave," Genos scolded, "You dare to say things like fighting with me in front of Lord Edmure, which is expressly prohibited by the Guardian Family."

Edmure looked at Lord Janos and felt dizzy.

Something that was clearly settled suddenly came up as a troublemaker.

Now he had to worry about whether the people in Crowtree City could return to the castle alive.

The focus of the matter now is Brynden. As long as the heir of Crowtree City is released, there will be no need for Stonehedge City to continue causing trouble.

Because the Brackens don't have the logistics of a sustainable supply here, they won't stay long.

He decided to find a breakthrough from Arthur.

So Edmure said: "Mr. Arthur, I very much agree with your demand for justice for the people of the territory. You also agreed to my proposal before. I think as an upright person, you will definitely keep your promise."

Arthur also understands the current situation.

As long as Brynden is in his hands, he can talk about more benefits.

He was about to refuse, but he saw Genos' old face winking at him.

Arthur understood that the Earl of Stonehedge wanted him to agree to Edmure's words.

This is a bit difficult to handle.

But Shili City is his biggest backer, so he can't ignore their wishes.

After looking back and forth at Edmure, Janos, and Brynden several times, he finally made up his mind.

"I keep my promise and will release Brynden after I get three thousand golden dragons."

Edmure breathed a sigh of relief, "You are a man of noble character."

Although Titos didn't know what the Brackens were up to, this was the ending he wanted and he agreed.

The situation is changing, so it is better to get his eldest son back first.

When they left Crowtree City, they brought nearly two thousand golden dragons with them as logistical support in case of emergencies.

I think the Tully family also brought golden dragons with them, which would be enough for three thousand pieces.

So he sent someone to communicate with Edmure to discuss whether he could borrow money.

In a short time, two large cowhide bags were placed on the ground in front of Bracken.

Lord Janos appointed two people to help Arthur count the money.

"Well done, kid." The distant uncle patted Arthur on the shoulder, "You deserve it."

"I heard that you fought extremely bravely and killed one of their senior officers for a territorial citizen. I think the ancestors of Bracken and your parents will be proud of you for becoming a qualified second lord."

"Three subjects." Arthur corrected him.

Although he now has three thousand golden dragons, according to the agreement with Hendry, he has to compensate Shili City for the loss of nearly 400 soldiers.

But this is obviously impossible.

Because Arthur can't afford so much money.

It looks like Genos is happy now and can discuss it.

"Your Excellency, Hendry told me that every dead soldier should be compensated a hundred dollars. Isn't this too harsh?"

"Call me uncle." Genos looked at Arthur and said, "Don't worry about what he says. I am the master of Stone Fence City."

When Arthur heard this, he felt hopeful, "Then how should I compensate you for your losses?"

Genos pondered for a moment and said, "Let's do this. If someone dies, you pay a golden dragon."

Arthur breathed a huge sigh of relief, and just as he was happy, he heard another piece of good news.

"You have meritorious service in battle. Seeing that you have caused so much damage to the Blackwood family, I have decided to reward you. You will get a golden dragon for every soldier of his family who died at your hands."

Arthur nodded, having a better impression of this uncle.

In this way, he only paid them two to three hundred gold dragons.

Compared with the account of three thousand pieces, it is simply trivial.

The time for counting money always passed quickly. The soldier reported that the total of three thousand was no problem.

"Your Excellency Arthur, it's time for you to fulfill your promise." Count Tytos reminded him from a distance.

Arthur nodded, told the soldiers in front of him to go away, and then used the dagger he carried around his waist to cut through the ropes of Brynden and others.

"You will regret it." After saying these words, the heir of Crow Tree City turned around and prepared to leave.

Titos's tight strings finally relaxed, and the eldest son finally returned.

Edmure was no longer distressed. Genos was still very reasonable.

He thought that the earl had visited his father a few days ago, but no one in Ravenstree City had met his lord, so he immediately fell in love with Bracken.

But the next second, Edmure's idea was changed by the ruthless reality.

The soldiers surrounding Arthur and Lord Janos grabbed Brynden again and pressed him hard to the ground.

"How dare you!" Titos was furious, "Arthur, what do you mean, you've got the money and you're cheating, right?"

Arthur was about to distance himself, but he was interrupted by Genos next to him.

"Well, you can't frame a good man. My nephew Arthur Bracken has nothing to do with this."

The owner of Stone Fence City put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly, "Brynden is in my hands now. Arthur released him first. He was not cheating."

Edmure's face was uncertain, not knowing what this powerful vassal of the Riverlands meant.

But obviously, if Genos wants to cause trouble, the Tully soldiers present will not be able to stop him.

Titos was so angry that he didn't speak for a long time, and the people around him didn't dare to interrupt a few top nobles.

The scene fell into silence.

Arthur felt a little embarrassed, but it didn't matter. He avenged Darren's wife and the other two people, eliminated Shili City's debt, and got three thousand golden dragons.

You can run away now.

But his strong desire for gossip made him stay and see what kind of tricks this uncle could do first.

After a long time, Titos asked: "What do you want?"

He asked feebly, as if he was too angry to calm down.

"Ten thousand golden dragons." Genos's voice was obviously much cheerful, "I just said it."

"Our total savings in Crow Tree City are less than ten thousand. We just took out another three thousand. Where can we find the money now?"

Genos was even more happy, "Can you borrow money? The Frey family or Haijiang City, which family can't afford 10,000 gold dragons? You have to understand that if the money is gone, you can make it again. If the eldest son is gone, then it is really gone." ”

Titos grimaced and looked to Edmure for help.

Although Arthur felt that this uncle was very disrespectful, he felt inexplicably happy when he saw the Earl of Ravenstree looking defeated.
