Start as Inherited Baroness

"Lord Baron, they were still stationed in the forest this morning, but now I don't know..." the middle-aged knight replied.

"Hurry up and send a warning! What are you doing?!" Berlitt roared.

"Yes! Yes!" The middle-aged knight immediately turned around and trotted to make arrangements...

"Set up camp, set up a catapult first, and send some gifts to Berlitt."

Simon looked at Green Plains Castle from the center of the army and smiled faintly.

"Yes! Lord Earl!" Knight Wall responded respectfully and then went to make arrangements.

"Aile, you lead the West Guard Corps to surround this castle, and don't let a bird go.

Kelafu, you lead the North Guard Corps to guard the periphery to prevent other troops from attacking.

According to intelligence, there are several noble armies stationed next to the forest in the northwest, and their intentions are unclear.

There are less than 10,000 people in total, so you have to be careful." Simon ordered.

"Yes! Lord Earl! Please rest assured!" Kailafu assured.

"Let's start the deployment!" Simon nodded and gave the order.

"Yes!" The commanders left after receiving the order, and soon, the army was mobilized.

Soldiers were busy like ants, and by the evening, more than a dozen trebuchets and other siege equipment, as well as seven or eight military camps, had been built.

They formed a circle and trapped Green Plains Castle firmly inside.

"Fire!" Wall raised his sword and gave an order, and the catapult threw more than a dozen special flint bombs into the castle.

"Ah! Ah! It's on fire! Put out the fire!"

After several rounds, the castle was ablaze with flames and chaos.

Seeing this scene, Airey thought it was a good time to attack.

"My Lord Earl, Green Plains Castle is in chaos now. If we besiege it from all sides, we will definitely be able to conquer it in one battle."

He went to Simon and suggested.

"Okay, just do as you said and launch the attack." Simon actually had this idea, and he immediately agreed when he heard it.

"Please wait for my good news, sir!"

After paying respectful salute, Airey went to mobilize the troops and the ladder was slowly pushed up.

When all the siege equipment was in place, he drew his sword and prepared to issue an order for a full-scale siege.

However, at this time, a white flag was raised on the highest watchtower in the castle, and it was about to surrender.

Seeing this, Airey was very disappointed, and his merits were wasted.

"Go and report to the Earl, the Green Plain Castle has raised a white flag." He said to the guard beside him.

"Yes! Sir!" The soldier in iron light armor ran away immediately...

After about half an hour, the gate of Green Plain Castle opened, and a team with white flags walked out.

The leader was Berlitt, who was wearing a plate chain mail. He looked extremely depressed, walked sloppily, and was weak.

Not far from this person was a heavily armored knight with a white flag in his hand, and behind him were hundreds of elite soldiers.

All of them knelt and surrendered.

Simon originally wanted to kill this guy, but this guy surrendered so smoothly that it was not easy to kill him in front of him.

He had no interest in ridiculing the enemy at this time. He waved his hand and ordered: "All of them are detained.

Search the castle to eliminate any potential risks. The large group of soldiers should not enter the city rashly."

"Yes! Sir!" Airey and others took the order and left.

After a while, more than a thousand soldiers entered the city to search. They first controlled the two city gates and entered slowly.

When it was just dark, Airey came back and reported: "Lord Earl, Green Plain Castle is safe, and all suspicious people have been rushed outside the castle.

In addition, the tunnels inside were also checked. There is a passage extending outside the city, but it did not exceed our encirclement.

Sir, please feel free to enter the city.

By the way, these are the family members of Baron Berlitt..."

"Very good!" Simon glanced at the women and smiled slightly.

"Detain the wife of Berlitt together, as for those lovers, you can have fun." He said casually.

Simon's vision is relatively high now. He can't be attracted by women who are not absolutely beautiful. These women with some beauty are just for his men to enjoy.

Not long after, he led the Courage Guard into the city and strolled around inside.

In fact, there is nothing to see. It is just a stone city with a fairly practical design, in a rough style.

It is estimated that Berlitt did not invite any good architects. At most, he is just a beginner. Some places are not very convenient to build.

After a walk, Simon returned to the lord's hall of the castle and enjoyed a sumptuous dinner here. The cooks and ingredients were all brought by themselves.

As for commanders such as Airey, they were all in the barracks outside the city to deal with emergencies.

Nothing happened overnight.

Simon did not take off his armor. After waking up and having breakfast, he went to the watchtower of Green Plains Castle to observe the surrounding situation.

I saw curling smoke rising from the barracks, and the soldiers of the Hollen family came and went, which was very lively.

He watched with interest for a while, and said to Mai Lan and Shadow Secret Guard Chief Valilo beside him: "What's the situation with the noble army next to the forest?"

"Reporting to the Earl, they retreated more than ten miles and camped on a hillside. Apart from that, there was no movement.

However, in the early morning, some ravens and light cavalry left, seemingly contacting reinforcements." Valilo reported respectfully.

"Okay, go over and ask them what they want to do." Simon smiled faintly.

Afterwards, he led the Courage Guard out of the castle and came to the military camp.

"Good morning! Lord Earl!" Ai Lei and others greeted respectfully.

"Let's go, head towards the noble army in the north.

As for Green Plains Castle, leave a thousand people stationed there, and then the patrol corps will take over the defense."

Simon ordered. The castle was not big, less than 20 acres, and leaving too many soldiers would be crowded.

"Yes! Sir!" Ai Lei and others responded respectfully.

Before noon, the West Guard Corps and the North Guard Corps came to the barracks of the noble army.

They were stationed on the hillside. The slope was not high, estimated to be only 50 or 60 meters, but this height could also bring a lot of advantages.

It has always been advantageous to fight high and low.

"Lord Simon Hollen! What do you want to do with your troops here?"

In the barracks of the noble army, a loud voice shouted.

"Baron Berlitt colluded with the Holy Spirit Church in Middle-earth and intended to rebel!

Earl Simon, as the guardian of Xisai, has come to wipe out the rebels!!"

After Simon explained to Aile, he gathered his strength and shouted.

The noble camp heard this and didn't reply for a long time. It was estimated that they were stunned for a while.

Simon is now playing both sides, occupying the righteousness, and can hit anyone he wants, all depending on whether his fist is hard enough.

In the central army tent of the noble camp, a group of nobles, big and small, all looked sad.

"What should we do? Simon Hollen is such a shameless guy! He is obviously wantonly encroaching on land and framing the nobles!"

A middle-aged noble with a brown beard said indignantly.

"But... who knows if what he said is true or not? Who in our territory has not built the Holy Spirit Church?"

"Damn it!! This horse-breeding pariah is so shameless! The royal family is so stupid! They actually appointed him as the guardian of Xisai! A bunch of stupid ghosts!!"

......

Just when the nobles were struggling, a messenger suddenly ran in from outside the door: "Report! A letter from the Raven of Morning Star City!"
