Start as Inherited Baroness

The man held a bloody woman's head in his hand.

"My Lord Earl! This is Miriel's head. We have killed her for you.

We brothers hope to serve you. Hope you will take us in..."

"How dare you! Where did this bandit come from? How dare you kill the nobles! Attack! Kill!!"

Simon saw this, grinned, drew his sword and shouted.

"Stones! Fire!" Knight Wall ordered immediately.

Immediately, granite the size of a washbasin was thrown out.

There were a total of four catapults, and they were fired at the same time. Soon, four large stones drew a curve and fell on the camp.

With a few rumbles, several large holes were smashed in the wooden wall. One unlucky guy was smashed to pieces on the spot and died in a moment.

This kind of catapult is still invincible against wooden camps.

The knights on the gate of the camp immediately fled into the camp with ghosts and wolves howling.

The catapult continued to throw, and from time to time, some unlucky people were killed by granite blocks.

However, the killing efficiency of this thing is not high. After throwing hundreds of blocks in a row, only a dozen people were killed.

Although there are special stone bullets mixed with kerosene, there is no need to make such a big fuss to attack such a wooden camp.

The wall of the camp has been smashed with holes everywhere. There is a wooden wall more than ten meters long that has been completely knocked down, leaving a gap.

Even the siege hammer is saved.

"Attack!" Simon ordered when he saw this.

"Yes! My lord!

Attack! The first and second brigades are advancing in formation! Archers are suppressing with projectiles!"

Aire put down his mask, held up a two-handed sword in one hand, and shouted.

The entire Western Guard Corps immediately moved. After training, they performed well.

Among them, a thousand people were divided into ten square teams and approached the gap in the wooden wall.

In the camp.

"What should we do?! They have started to attack! We are less than 500 people, we are doomed!

You idiot! I shouldn't have listened to you and killed Miriel!"

A pale young man said in panic.

"You are the idiot! Even if Miriel is not killed, Count Simon will kill everyone!"

The man with a conical iron helmet shouted with a distorted face, and his eyes revealed a fierce look.

"Then what should we do..." The pale young man was obviously a little afraid, and his words softened.

"Heir! Count Simon will definitely look for an heir! Let's control all of Willir's brothers.

If Count Simon doesn't let us live, kill them! Die together!"

The man with a conical iron helmet stared and shouted.

"Yes, yes, yes! That's it..."

At this time, the soldiers of the Western Guard had already rushed into the camp, and many mercenaries also blocked the gap with shields and spears, and the two sides began to fight hand to hand.

The mercenaries' equipment varied, including iron light armor, chain mail, and leather armor, and their weapons were also varied.

The soldiers of the Western Guard were much neater, all wearing bronze armor, spears and oak shields.

The shields were also inlaid with many bronze spikes, which looked golden and beautiful.

"Kill! Spear!" The centurions of each team shouted.

Swish! Hundreds of soldiers at the forefront almost simultaneously thrust their spears through the gaps between the shields.

"Ah! Help! My legs! Lame man, help me... Ah!" Dozens of mercenaries were stabbed and blood was spilled all over the ground.

The other mercenaries were terrified and stepped back unconsciously.

In this way, the Western Guard soldiers advanced a little further.

"Archers! Shoot! Shoot!" The mercenaries were commanded by several knights, who were previously mercenary captains.

Fighting guerrilla warfare and eliminating bandits is OK, but facing this kind of regular army fighting style, it is a bit helpless and difficult to deal with.

"Have the soldiers surrounded this camp?" Simon asked Mailan, who was not far away, while riding on the Red Flame Horse.

"My Lord Earl, it is absolutely surrounded." Mailan said respectfully.

"Yes!" Simon nodded with satisfaction and observed the battlefield again.

The West Guard Army was completely in the upper hand, but it was inevitable that there were some casualties, after all, there were still some masters among the mercenaries.

However, there were high-end combat forces in the West Guard Army. From the centurion up, the lowest was bronze warriors, and silver warriors were also everywhere.

There were even more than a dozen gold warriors, and all the officers were appointed from the team column.

It can be said that as long as you are pulled into the team column, even if you are a pig, you will sooner or later turn into Zhu Bajie.

As time went by, the land at the gap in the wooden wall was gradually stained red with blood, and many mercenaries fell here forever.

There were also some Western Guard soldiers wearing bronze armor, but there were only a few dozen of them.

More than 200 of the 500 mercenaries were annihilated, and the others either fled deeper into the camp or knelt down to surrender.

"Report to the Earl! We have captured the outer wall of the camp and captured more than 100 mercenaries. The remaining enemies fled deeper into the camp." Aire came to report.

"Shrink the front line, surround and strangle them!" Simon nodded and ordered.

"Yes!" Aire immediately took the order and left.

All the soldiers of the Western Guard Corps were dispatched, and the Yongyi Guard took over some key positions.

And they also guarded the periphery to prevent unknown armed forces from approaching.

The soldiers attacked the building area in the camp in a team of ten as the basic unit.

The mercenaries had no desire to fight and just kept hiding.

Airei had already left a gap for the soldiers. The soldiers blocking the west side did not press hard and only guarded an alleyway on the outside.

In this way, the mercenaries will not fight to the death when they see a way out.

At this time, Simon also came to the camp under the escort of hundreds of Valiant Guard soldiers and watched the battle ahead.

Airei and other knights have already surrounded the lord's longhouse, trapping hundreds of mercenaries and local knights inside.

"Let us go! Otherwise we will kill all the brothers of Baron Verrill!

After the Duishi Territory has no heir, it will be returned to the royal family! No one can catch it! "

The pale young man in light armor held a long sword, placed it on the neck of a thirty-year-old man who was kneeling on the ground, and shouted.

In addition, other mercenaries also detained a dozen men of various ages, as if they were about to kill them if they disagreed.

When Airei saw this, he hesitated slightly. He didn't know whether these heirs were useful to his lord.

"You should pay close attention first, I will ask the earl for instructions."

He whispered to his deputy Phyllis next to him.

"Yes! Don't worry!"

Airei nodded, then withdrew from the military formation and walked towards Simon.

Simon had already heard the shouts of the mercenaries and was laughing secretly in his heart.

"Lord Earl, what do you think should be done?" Airei came to him and asked.

"Fight how you want, don't have any scruples." Simon said with a smile.

"Yes!" Ai Lei looked serious and took the order.

"Advance! Attack!" He returned to the military formation and commanded loudly.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!!!" The soldiers immediately began to raise their spears and shields, and slowly advanced.

"No! Don't come here!! I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!!"

The pale-faced young man and several other stone-strewn knights saw this and looked shocked, bewildered and yelled.

They are both the adopted sons of Damele, and they are having an affair with Verrill's wife.

Poof!

After a while, the shield spearmen fought with the mercenaries, and more than a dozen mercenaries were stabbed to death. However, the Western Guards soldiers were not injured because they were protected by large shields.

"kill!"

The pale young man's face was so frightened that he looked crazy, his eyes were red, his arm was trembling and he slashed down hard, and his big head rolled to the ground.

This person is the heir they selected for the Duishi Territory, Verrill's cousin, who is in his thirties and was previously an honest farmer.

I have enjoyed some blessings during these days, and I have several women.

When the other mercenaries saw this, they also chopped off the hostages on their hands. Verrill's cousins, cousins, and various uncles all took the blame.

Now Airei had no scruples and ordered the soldiers to step up the attack. In less than half an hour, these people were slaughtered.

An hour later.

"My lord, we have searched it and found no baronial seal of Verrill..."

Airei reported to Simon.

"Is that so..." Simon nodded, lost in thought.

"Lord Earl! There is something discovered here! Look..." Suddenly a soldier shouted.
