From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 127 Compromise Is a Kind of Growth (4K)

Ryan just paused when he heard the words, and still chopped down the sword in his hand. A splash of hot blood splashed, and a scream sounded. Bryce's right arm was cut off shoulder-to-shoulder, and the severe pain made him faint immediately. .

"grown ups!"

The chief knight's eyes were tearing apart, and he rushed forward with the black militiamen, shouting: "Admit defeat, we admit defeat..."

Allen was not idle either, and immediately led the soldiers of the second battalion to surround him when he saw some movement on the other side, protecting them layer by layer, with swords out of their sheaths, spears like forests, cold light meeting scorching sun, murderous aura.

"Stop, are you going to destroy the noble duel?" Allen shouted loudly. In his education, as long as he agrees to a duel, life and death must be divided for the glory of the nobles!
"Keep people, keep people."

The sound of rumbling horseshoes gradually came, and a well-equipped cavalry came stepping on the mud. Ryan finally put down the blood-stained blade in his hand, frowned and looked at the person coming. The moment the other party spoke, he knew who it was.

"Knight Commander Lace, do you want to join us in the duel?"

Ryan pushed aside the crowd and said indifferently to the dusty team.

The team stopped nearby. The team of hundreds of people seemed to be in a disorganized formation, but their movements were uniform and their riding skills were also exceptionally superb. The galloping horses stopped quickly, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The leader is a burly, cold-faced man, who is Cheers' chief knight, Reis!

His bright armor was covered with mud spots, and his expression was a bit tired. It seemed that after a long and long journey, this mighty knight was a little tired.

Hearing Ryan's question, Lace's face was as cold as ever, but he said with a sincere tone: "Ray, you misunderstood, I don't want to be involved in your glory duel, but you have won now , I just hope you keep it alive."

"I need a reason."

Ryan's expression was indifferent. Although he respected Chelsea, it didn't mean that he wanted to follow his lead. He had to fight for such a matter related to sovereignty, and he would not give an inch.

Between nobles, just like between men and women, there is no pure friendship, only interests come first.

"I have a personal letter from Lord Viscount. He said that you will decide his life or death after reading it." Reis carefully took out a cowhide bag from his arms and handed it to Ryan.

Allen stepped forward to take it instead, and after checking that it was not dangerous, he opened it and handed it to Ryan. He took out a piece of animal skin paper inside, and it was indeed Chelsea's notes.

He read it patiently, and his brows gradually wrinkled. If this is the case, it might be troublesome to kill him.

Looking up at Leisi, the other party has been quietly waiting for a reply, and he said in a flat tone: "I want to talk to you alone, and please ask your people to help watch, if the other party makes any moves, the consequences We are not responsible for that."

Leisi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, as long as he let go, he said that there was something to talk about. He got off his horse and gave a few instructions to the team behind him.

"Look at them, don't continue to have conflicts, if anyone doesn't have eyes, kill them without mercy."

When Blaise's chief knight saw this, he was a little confused. He naturally knew Blaise, but he thought that the other party was here to help, but he didn't expect this to be the case.

Reis didn't care what they were thinking. After the warning, he and Ryan came to a place far away from the crowd. He vaguely knew what Ryan was going to ask.

Sure enough, the first sentence Ryan asked him was: "If I kill him, what price will I have to pay?"

"Master Viscount should have told you in his letter that if you kill him, you will definitely go to the noble court. Even if Lord Viscount is helping you, the best outcome for you is to go to the front instead of him.

Your foundation is still not solid, and your background is not deep. My Lord Viscount and I agree that this is not worth it. Of course, what you choose in the end is your business, and I will not interfere. "

Reis sighed, and said something to Ryan that only two people could understand. He believed that Ryan could make the most correct choice because he was a smart person.

If he made the wrong choice, it would prove that Cheers was wrong about the person, and naturally there would be no value in continuing to invest. No matter what happened at that time, it had nothing to do with him.

Ryan suddenly laughed silently. The content of the letter was very simple, because the flames of the rebellion were spreading day by day, and the nobles in Marton County next door had fallen into exhaustion and faintly showed signs of retreat.

In view of this situation, a week ago, Grand Duke Douglas, the guardian of the southern border, ordered the mobilization of some nobles in the Green Province to counter the rebellion, and Blaise happened to be on the mobilization list, and he was scheduled to lead the team to Marton County next month.

The order was delivered only a few days ago, and this incident happened before it reached Blaise's hands.The Marton family's eyeliner is all over the province, and such a big thing as the border armed confrontation can't be hidden from Chelsea.

After seeing the news of the spies, Chelsea knew it was bad. No matter who wins or loses, both sides will suffer heavy losses. How can there be spare energy to participate in the counter-insurgency?
Grand Duke Douglas is known for his seriousness and toughness. If Blaise died at the hands of Ryan, he would definitely go to the noble court, even in a formal duel.

Because according to the laws of the kingdom, the nobles who were conscripted belonged to the army of the kingdom, and no one was allowed to initiate an honor duel against them. If they violated it, the punishment would be very heavy.

If the opponent is killed in a duel, it will be even more serious. If it is serious, it will even be executed directly after being tried by the noble court. The best result is to replace its previous obligations and make atonement.

This had nothing to do with Cheers originally, but he considered that Ryan's background was weak, and he was easily vulnerable in the conflict. If he failed, he might die.

If he wins by luck, the loss will definitely not be small, and when he replaces Blaise on the battlefield, he will probably be beaten by a meat bun.

No matter what the result is, he is not willing to see it. Appreciating Ryan is one aspect. The main reason is that the two parties still have conflicts of interest. The sales of green sugar are very good.

In a short period of time, Cheers occupied the "sugar" market in most of the provinces. It can be said that he has made a lot of money. The supply quota agreed with Ryan every month has risen again and again, which is not enough to sell.

Therefore, he decided to take Lane by hand, so Perez led the family elite to travel day and night, and finally arrived in time.

So, the choice was placed in front of Ryan, to kill or not to kill?

From a personal point of view, Ryan wanted to kill the other party directly.But from the perspective of the overall situation, it cannot be killed now. The reason is very realistic. Karna is not yet ready to participate in the war.

Even if you think about it with your ass, you know that the rebellion has been going on for so long, and so many forces have been mobilized to suppress the rebellion. Not only is it ineffective, but it is actually getting worse.

Although some nobles did not work hard and held each other back, the strength of the rebel army was definitely not as simple as a group of armed peasants. If they participated rashly, they might be torn to pieces.

It's hard to get a little bit of wealth, if folded in, it will take a long time to recover, and the price is too high.

"Brace has taken the initiative to provoke me several times, and he is already a deadly enemy. Just letting him go like this will be a hidden danger in the future. It is better to let him go once and for all."

There was a cold light in Ryan's eyes. Starting from his heart, he naturally wanted to eradicate this mad dog.

"Ray, you have to think about it clearly. Killing him won't solve all the problems. There are still people in the Bryce family who can inherit the title. At that time, they will really be immortal. And you sent troops on their behalf. One ebbs and another, you Can you still fight?"

Seeing the murderous intent emerging from Ryan, Lace still tried to persuade him that it would be very irrational to easily enmity with a nobleman. He was afraid that young people would be impatient and impulsive.

The meaning in his words is very clear, unless you kill all the heirs of the Bryce family, it will be impossible once and for all.

But is it possible?Obviously impossible, even if he really did it, then he can still think about where to reincarnate in his next life.

Sometimes, people have to learn to compromise, and bowing to reality is not a shameful thing, because everyone is like this, unless it is the legendary omniscient and omnipotent god.

Restraining his smile and sighing faintly, Ryan had already made a decision in his heart.What Lace said is right, one goes up and down, counterinsurgency requires background, as long as you give yourself a period of time, Blaise will no longer be a problem.

Of course, this also depends on Blaise being able to come back from the battlefield alive. After all, the number of nobles killed in battle has already exceeded double digits.

"I understand what you and the viscount mean, Knight Commander Lacey. It can only be said that this incident was too coincidental, and he was lucky enough to save his life, otherwise he would have been a corpse since he challenged me."

Ryan turned and walked towards the crowd. Although he decided to let Blaise jump for a while, some things had to be resolved.

It took a long time for the two of them to go, and Blaise, who had a broken arm, was dying at this moment, bleeding all over the ground, and Allen and others didn't mean to stop the bleeding.

The chief knight wanted to snatch his baron back for treatment, but when he saw the cavalry standing in a row in front of them, he extinguished this thought.

Regardless of their identities, there were only a hundred of them, but the leader was a ten-man cavalry squad, and the rest were well-equipped and fierce elite cavalry.

It was enough to fight in the first place, and with such a team, he didn't have the slightest confidence.

As a knight, he knew very well what an amazing role a squad of knights could play in an army, and it was not at the same level as an ordinary army.

Seeing the two of them coming back, the chief knight immediately cast a sincere look at Reis, and he knew that it was up to him whether his baron could survive today.

Ryan didn't speak, but picked up the severed arm that was still warm on the ground, and took off the ring on his finger.Not long after the fight, he realized that this ring was unusual, like an extraordinary weapon, and the power of Blaise's shots was more than one grade stronger than before.

This can also be regarded as his spoils of war, so it is naturally impossible to return it.

Putting the ring into his pocket majesticly, ignoring the eyes of the people around him, he said to the chief knight in front: "You can take it back, but the premise is to exchange it with my people, not one less and illegal All the seized materials were spit out.

In view of the fact that this incident was entirely caused by you, I still need you to come up with enough mental damage to make up for it and apologize to my people one by one. "

The chief knight suddenly felt that his blood pressure soared to [-], and it was fine to let him go. What the hell is the mental damage fee?

"You can release people, and there will be no shortage of supplies, but mental damage is impossible. It's just a bunch of pariahs. On the contrary, the Baron lost an arm, and he should be compensated the most!" He tried hard to suppress his emotions. Furious, said in a deep voice.

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder began to permeate again, Lace shook his head, and said coldly: "Enough, you may not know that Blaise has been recruited by the Grand Duke, and he cannot accept or initiate a duel according to the laws of the kingdom, but he violated the law. According to the law, he was to be tried by the noble court.

It's just that since the order hasn't been conveyed yet, the Grand Duke will be lenient, but he was completely to blame for his injuries in the duel. It was already very kind and generous for Baron Black not to kill him directly.But you still want to ask for compensation, do you still have the noble spirit? "

This head-to-head attack stunned the chief knight, call-up order?

Naturally, he would not doubt the authenticity of this sentence. No one dared to use the name of the Grand Duke to cheat in the southern border, and all those who did so would die miserably.

He immediately fell silent, and after hesitating for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "I can decide to return the person to you, but the compensation is not something I can decide. Give me some time."

Although the chief knight is Bryce's right-hand man and confidant, but the compensation involves too much, he dare not and is not qualified to make a decision.

If the lord cannot make his own decision, he has to ask the opinions of the family and administrative officials.

"Hehe, I understand, you just go back and discuss it. Just send my people over quickly, otherwise I can't guarantee his life."

Ryan generously expressed his understanding, but he just said it nicely. He had no intention of releasing him at all. He couldn't release him before his promise was fulfilled.

The chief knight's face was blue and red, but he dared not speak out. He called a few of the lord's confidantes as witnesses, and he set off full of enthusiasm, and he didn't even have time to shout out harsh words.

"Ray, this..."

Allen had a complicated expression, he didn't understand why he let the other party go.

"I'll explain to you later, you need to find someone to treat his wound first, you can't let him die."

Patting him on the shoulder, Ryan turned his head and said to Lace: "Please also ask the knight commander to say hello to His Excellency the Viscount for me when I go back. I will personally come to thank you when I have time!"

"It's best for you to think clearly. Lord Viscount admires you very much and treats you as an ally. I hope you will not be impulsive when encountering problems. If you are in doubt, you can ask Lord Viscount to advise you.

You are young and the possibilities are endless. "

Reis nodded. He knew that he was right about Ryan. Smart people made smart choices. Compromise is also a kind of growth. Nobles often need to compromise more than ordinary people.

Ryan is not an idiot. Of course, Leisi brought such an elite team not simply to send him a message, maybe he also had the worst plan-if the scuffle has already happened, he would use force to interfere in the battle situation!

And the objects they help are naturally self-evident...
