This lord is not easy to mess with

Chapter 344 Angry, betrayal
Unable to bear the demands of many nobles, Grand Duke Longqiu also took advantage of this step, holding his nose and enduring it.

A month later, Ilya, the son of Grand Duke Longqiu, set off for Longming Fortress with a large number of slaves and food.

In the commander's hall of Longming Fortress, Ilya gave a noble salute to Leylin: "I have met Lord Hawke!"

Leylin sat on the chair and stretched out his hand slightly, and said with a faint smile, "Prince Ilya, please sit down!"

At the same time, the captured generals were also brought up, watching Ilya bow their heads in shame, no matter what the reason was, they were all losers.

No face to face the future ruler of the Principality.

Ilya nodded towards these generals with a concerned expression on his face, without any trace of blame.

Immediately, Ilya turned to look at Leylin: "This conflict has caused a lot of trouble to the Principality. My father, Grand Duke Longqiu, asked me to convey my apologies to everyone!"

The generals on Leylin's side sneered when they heard this.What kind of bullshit conflict is nothing more than seeing that the Hailan Principality is weak and wants to come up and bite hard.

Everyone's heart is like a mirror.

Leylin smiled slightly: "There is no need to mention these things, then let's talk about the main topic!"

I'm too lazy to talk to him about these unnutritious words, so I'll go straight to the point.

Ilya looked at Leylin with a serious face and said, "Of course, this is the list we want to redeem."

Immediately, he handed out a booklet, and a soldier handed it to Leylin.

Leylin finally looked at it carefully, and then handed it to Mosley beside him.

Mosley took the booklet and with a wave of his hand, the soldiers let the captured generals leave the hall to verify and redeem all the slaves and food.

after people have left.

Ilya spoke again: "Lord Hawke, in fact, there is another task here, which is to redeem the Dragon Cry Fortress..."

Leylin stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "You Longqiu Principality took the lead in launching a war to attack our Locoa Fortress. If the Locoya Fortress is breached, will you let the Principality of Hailan redeem it?"

What Ilya wanted to say was directly blocked by Leylin roughly, his face flushed slightly for a moment, and his hands under the table were tightly clenched.

Ilya's stiff face twitched slightly, and he said with a fake smile: "Patriarch Hawke hopes that you can seriously consider it. This time, our Longqiu Principality came here with absolute sincerity."

The generals around couldn't help laughing when they heard this.How could such an important strategic location of Longming Fortress be returned to the Principality of Longqiu.

With it, the southeast of Longqiu Principality is completely open to them, and Longqiu Principality no longer dares to attack Hailan Principality wantonly.

"Prince Ilya wanted to come, but the journey was tiring. Someone, take Prince Ilya down to rest." At this moment, Leylin waved his hand impatiently.

Such a rough behavior made the smile on Ilya's face gradually froze, and his face became gloomy.It was the first time in his memory that he was reprimanded like this.

"Then don't bother me!" Ilya trembled slightly, and said calmly as much as possible.

After two days of counting, only half of the families were really willing to redeem people, and the remaining families were unwilling to cause the entire family to suffer huge losses just to redeem a Patriarch.Ruthlessly abandon them.

Looking at the generals who left one by one, the people who stayed behind looked at a loss.

"Prince Ilya, is there something wrong, why no one came to redeem me." Watching Ilya leave, a general rushed to him and asked.

Looking at the general, a trace of pity flashed in Ilya's eyes: "I'm sorry, Finn, your family has already regarded you as dead. They think you have insulted the family's reputation, so they re-elected your brother to inherit your position. You His son and wife were also driven out."

Finn froze in place as if struck by lightning.The soldiers who came later pushed him to the ground without making any resistance.

"Take him back!"

Finn, who was being dragged, was at the mercy of these soldiers, muttering impossible.

The faces of those generals who were not redeemed from the Principality of Longqiu also turned slightly ugly, and what happened to Finn could not help but remind them of themselves.

Has the family also abandoned themselves?

This idea kept reverberating in everyone's minds, and the more they thought about it, the more gloomy their faces became.

Ilya left, looking back at Longming Fortress Leylin's arrogance made him taste the humiliation for the first time in his life, his eyes were cold and terrifying.

"One day, I will make you pay the price!" Ilya swore inwardly, and brought the redeemed people back to Longqiu Principality.

……

Leylin's expression was quite ugly at this time, he never expected that the nobles of Longqiu Principality would be so heartless, they would rather watch these people die than redeem them.Longming Fortress is also unwilling to exchange people.

I thought with joy that it would be a bumper harvest.In the end, he got 34 slaves, which was quite different from what he had imagined.

"It's not bad!" Mosley said in relief.

In the eyes of many families, what is sacrificing a patriarch compared to the prosperity of their own family?

Leylin nodded helplessly, because he thought things too ideally.

!

However, he didn't intend to stop there. Those abandoned Patriarchs gave Leylin an excellent opportunity to persuade them to surrender.

Abandoned by his own people, including their closest relatives, the resentment in his heart can be imagined.

If you don't take the opportunity to recruit them, you are simply too sorry for this rare opportunity.

After thinking carefully, Leylin and Mosley went to the prison camp.

"You want to recruit them?" Looking at the prisoner camp, Eli asked in surprise.

"That's right!" Leylin nodded: "At this moment, they are suffering from blows, and their willpower is weakest. If we don't take this opportunity to recruit them, how long will we have to wait?"

These abandoned generals were all in a daze when they were called.

"How do you feel about being abandoned by your own family?"

To Leylin's inquiry, everyone still did not respond at all, and everyone remained silent.

Leylin shrugged and asked again: "Are you willing to take back what you lost?"

As soon as the words fell, there was a flash of light in everyone's eyes, and their eyes couldn't help falling on Na Lin.

It's good to have a reaction.

Leylin smiled and continued: "It must be very hard for you to be betrayed. Are you willing to join me under my command and help me? I will bring you back to Longqiu Duchy in the future, and take back everything you have lost. Let those Betrayers shall be punished as they deserve."

"Serly is willing to serve Lord Leylin!" A general knelt down and said with his right hand on his chest.

"Job pledges allegiance to your lord!"

"Wynn is willing to be loyal to the Lord!"

"Finn pledges his allegiance to your lord!"

……

Everyone swore allegiance to Leylin, with vengeful anger in their eyes.

"Very good, you are leading your own army again. I hope you will not betray my trust." Looking at the crowd, Leylin smiled faintly.

"Your Excellency will definitely not be disappointed!" Everyone said sonorously.
