After rebirth, buy the elf princess for one gold coin

He handed the declaration of war directly to Mr. Woma.

Woma looked at it curiously, with a complicated expression.

"This Viscount of Gracia, Roland, is the person who was so frightened by you that you handed over three thousand gold coins to save his life?"

Gruul snorted coldly, each word popping out from between his teeth with a chill.

"Yeah, I don't know where he got the courage. I saw that he was still young and I didn't intend to ask him to pay a big price. I just asked him to pay compensation for his arrogance. He is looking for death himself and can't blame me."

Mr. Woma frowned and shook his head, "This is very wrong. He was Baron Münhausen half a year ago, but now he is Viscount Gracia. Do you know what changes happened in the process?"

"I don't know, and I don't want to know. Now I just want to lead the army into Minhausen and make him pay for his arrogance. This time, I can't save his life with only 30 gold coins, at least [-]!"

Looking at the furious Gruul, Woma saw from the corner of his eye the life-saving price proposed by Viscount Gracia for Count Gruul, which was exactly 30 gold coins.

Chapter 054: Pay back the money you owe me a hundred times.

If you bully me and humiliate me, I will pay you back a hundredfold.

This is the apparent reason why Roland priced the product at 30 yuan.

However, the real reason was Yanis' suggestion.

"I have carried out missions in the Gruul Diocese and talked with the Bishop of Gruul Diocese. I know the true wealth of Count Gruul. He can get 30 gold coins."

You can take it out, but you will definitely have to break the pot and sell the iron.

As we all know, no one will hold too much cash in their hands unless they have special hobbies or just need cash flow. Many of the aristocratic assets are real estate and collectibles.

Although Gruul is a prosperous place, Earl Gruul's daily expenses are also very large, and he has to sell his property to raise the money.

30 gold coins will not kill Count Gruul, but it will definitely make him lose his mind.

Taking away this money, Roland would have money to maintain the subsequent war expenses, and Count Gruul would also have a reason to make way for the goblins.

As long as he can get Roland, he will do anything.

Of course, the premise of all this is to win.If you can't win, everything you say is false.

This was the first time Yanis commanded a military operation for Roland, and of course she wanted to perform perfectly.

After all, Gruul was a believer in the light. She couldn't just go into battle and fight, so she hid behind the scenes and gave advice to Roland.

Plan A was to completely anger Gruul and lay an ambush on the road from Gruul Province to Münhausen.

As long as Gruul comes out, he can be easily taken down.

Plan B comes from Granny.

According to Granny's thinking, since she is stronger than the enemy, what kind of tactics are needed? Just go in and kill everyone when you see them.

Although it sounds mindless, frontal crushing is also a tactic.

Yanis did not completely deny Plan B. She even supported the use of crushing tactics in the plains.

But only in plain areas.

What if Count Gruul feels something is wrong and hides in the castle without coming out?

That's easy, plan C.

This is the plan from Melanie and Ruit.

If Gruul doesn't come out, then surround the castle with a fast-growing forest and cut off traffic. Then the elf archers will ambush in the forest and shoot any one that emerges on the spot.

Although a small amount of food will be stored in the castle, it will definitely not last for half a month.

If you are more ruthless, you may even be able to go home in time for the New Year.

According to Yanis's inference, there is a high probability that Gruul will come out to kill him, and Granny's Plan B is more likely.

However, the development of the situation exceeded Yanis' expectations.

The count cowered in the castle and refused to come out, and even asked for help from the surrounding mercenaries.

This made Yanis a little confused.

Gruul is a powerful Earl, but he actually cowered and defended against the little Viscount?

More than 1000 elven warriors, more than 4000 mercenaries acting as skitarii, and more than 3000 elite warriors from the Druid sect were dispatched at the same time. Under the personal leadership of Roland, they set foot on the land of Gruul Province.

There are two viscounties and one earldom between the Viscounty of Gracia and the Province of Gruul. Roland did not have time to go through the formal procedures to purchase the right of passage, so he had to hit the road first.

Fortunately, the lords along the way generally took the overall situation into consideration and not only did not interfere, they were even willing to provide supplies.

"Viscount Gracia is my good neighbor, so this little favor is nothing."

The lords along the way were very kind.

In front of nearly [-] heavily armed troops, kindness is the only correct option.

You can scold her behind your back, but you have to offer kind words in front of her.

In this way, Roland's army entered Gruul Province.

In the first battle, Gracia's army ran into the "mercenary" troops arrayed in the plains.

These mercenaries are mercenaries in name, but in fact they are troops directly under Count Gruul.

The two sides squared off on the Gruul Plains and faced off head-on.

The elves cannot exert their full combat effectiveness as an army alone, but when mixed into the human army, they are as powerful as gods of war.

The range, rate of fire, and lethality of the elven archers completely outshine the human archers.

Roland inserted the World Tree Scepter into the earth, applying various benefits to the entire army.

Agnes tried to use the Saint's Battle Flag for the first time, and the effect was remarkable. Her bonus to the entire army was far greater than Roland's.

Wearing a full-body armor to hide her identity, she held the battle flag high and her clear voice echoed across the battlefield.

The fighting strength of both sides was eight thousand versus six thousand.

Roland's army was not only completely crushed in terms of combat effectiveness, but even had a numerical advantage.

This is no longer my advantage, but random killing.

Several rounds of arrow rain caused thousands of casualties, and the morale of the mercenaries also collapsed.

The mercenaries who were lucky enough to rush forward faced a hell of spears and a shield wall.

The temporarily formed Skitarii did not have flexible combat skills, but they had strong discipline.

It takes time to develop combat effectiveness, but discipline can be developed quickly.

After Agnes indifferently chopped down dozens of unlucky guys who disobeyed military orders, the Skitarii finally understood the horror of not obeying discipline.

Those who die on the battlefield will receive pensions and preferential treatment policies, which can ensure the livelihood of their families. Those who are killed in defiance of military orders will only receive a small amount of funeral expenses.

They can tell which is more important.

The mercenaries naturally would not sit still and wait for death. They also used bows and arrows to fight back when charging.

However, their counterattack was very messy, and only a few arrows reached the Gracia army.

The elven archers retreated to their own formation, and the Skitarii armed with large shields met the wave of arrows.

The arrows hit the armor and bounced away.

There were hundreds of soldiers under Roland's command wearing plate armor, and they were just in front to maintain the battle line.

During the shooting phase, Gracia's army suffered more than 30 casualties, and its mercenaries suffered thousands of casualties.

After paying a heavy price, the mercenaries finally approached Roland's army, with cruelty flashing in their eyes and various strange screams coming from their throats, ready to crush Roland's army with their rich fighting skills.

They know that the opponents are all rookies.

But their thoughts were quickly replaced by fear.

Granny charged into the crowd armed with two axes.

Although Roland gave her a high-quality two-handed giant sword, the efficiency of the giant sword in harvesting on the battlefield was far inferior to that of an axe, especially when the axe had two handles.

Granny let out a hearty laugh, as if a red whirlwind swept into the crowd.

People she touched would have their limbs chopped off, or they would die suddenly on the spot or even be cut into pieces.

The mercenaries looked at Granny in horror, their courage quickly disappearing.

They knew very well that Count Gruul had encountered a tough problem this time.

They didn't have time to think about why a viscount had so many troops, they just wanted to save their lives now.

Mercenaries are mercenaries after all. They fight for money, and they will naturally run away for money.

Since it cannot be defeated, there is no need to fight.

Those who can escape should flee directly, and those who cannot escape should surrender on the spot.

This seemingly even contest took just over half an hour to decide the winner.

After ending this boring battle, Roland turned his attention to the north.

There is the large city of Gruul with a population of more than 20, as well as the castle that the Gruul family has operated for many years.

Gragur Castle is known as the Fortress that will never fall.

Count Gruul is there.The undefeated fortress in his mind is actually a cemetery in the forest.

Roland raised his riding whip and pointed at Gragur Castle.

It's time to pay back the money you owe him.

A hundred times the principal and interest.

Chapter 055 Roland, come here!

Most wars are not magnificent epics, but boring millstone grinding.

The strong can form strongholds and fight stupid battles, while the weak can only be gradually devoured but have no choice but to do anything.

Unless the strong make mistakes.

However, Yanis has experienced many battles and makes no mistakes.

She transformed into a ruthless chess player, treating everyone as pawns and placing them in the most appropriate position, including Roland.

Since Roland can serve as a small mobile blood fountain, he can't be idle.

Yanis always said gently, "Roland, this front can't work without you. Can you still persist? If not, I will think of other ways."

Faced with the question of whether it is OK or not, a man always has only one answer.

OK, very OK, I must do it!

Of course, Roland knew that Agnis's soft words were a PUA, but he accepted it happily.

After all, Yanis was fighting for him.

And he was the one who PUAd first.

As a staunch religious warrior of feudalism, Yanis did her best for him, a feudal lord. What kind of spirit is this?

Although this spirit is neither noble nor sacred, they are a community of interests, so he is willing to follow Yanis's arrangements.

Roland stood on the front line without hesitation, holding his scepter high and letting out a wild battle roar.

The soldiers subconsciously moved closer to him, their morale was high, and they didn't even need the encouragement of the Saint's battle flag.

On the battlefield, the closer you are to Roland, the greater your chance of survival.

Soldiers are not stupid, and they know who to rally around without being taught.

Roland's army and Gruul's army fought three consecutive fierce battles in the plains and won all of them.

These three battles seemed fierce, but in fact they were one-sided.

The elven marksmen provide long-range support, the druids are versatile warriors, and the tough skitarii make Roland's troops a perfect match.

Of course there are people who can defeat them, but they are definitely not here.

In just three days, the Gruul army suffered a total of more than [-] casualties and lost countless ordnance, armor, and food.

On the fourth day, the field phase was completely over, and Roland's army surrounded the city of Gruul.
