Chapter 173 The city wall collapsed (page 12)
It can be said that Bach spared no effort in this expedition, taking out all his family assets, leaving only some knights and militiamen who had not conquered the monsters to guard Ironthorn Town.
In his opinion, his Tiethorn Town is strategically located, with Liuying Forest to the west and south. It is impossible for other towns to cross the forest to attack him. Only Rose Town to the north and Yinghuo Town to the east can attack Tiethorn. The town poses a threat.
Needless to say, Rose Town was already on his doorstep. As for Firefly Town, he also asked the Shadow Church to send people to harass it, so it should not pose any threat to Ironthorn Town.
Moreover, Yinghuo Town didn't know that he was going to attack Rose Town. By the time they reacted, he would have already defeated Rose Town, so he was so relieved to bring out all the troops.
"Lord Bach, Rose Town is just ahead. They seem to have known about the war in advance. There are no people in the nearby villages."
Notz reported what he had discovered to Bach. He was not only Bach's personal guard, but also the captain of the Cavaliers.
"What? How did they know this news? Could it be that the Shadow Church leaked the news again?"
Bach frowned. He only told Guanhai City and the Shadow Church about the attack on Rose Town today. It was impossible for Guanhai City to deliver the news to the abandoned son in Rose Town, leaving only the Shadow Church with the possibility. .
But haven’t they all withdrawn from the surrounding areas of Rose Town? There is no reason to send news to Rose Town.
"My subordinates don't know, but they probably learned the news not long ago. The villagers were in a panic when they ran away. They didn't even have time to pack up their belongings. They must not have gone very far. They were all hiding around the village. Should we arrest a few of them? Can I ask personally?"
Notz asked.
"Forget it, it's not necessary. It's just a few farmers. What can they know? But according to what you said, Qiangwei Town should have a way to transmit news over long distances, so they can learn about our dispatch of troops."
Bach looked up at the sky, already having a guess in his mind.
He felt that Rose Town was using flying monsters to monitor them, and after seeing them sending troops, he immediately flew back to deliver the news.
But flying monsters also need time to travel. By the time Rose Town received the news, their army was already approaching Rose Town, so these farmers fled in such a panic.
It seems that Rose Town may be the mastermind behind the robbery of supplies, otherwise why would they send flying monsters to monitor Ironthorn Town.
Bach originally thought that the newly succeeded "Baron Rose" was not so courageous, and that Rose Town was just taking the blame.
I didn't expect that they might have done this. I really underestimated this "Baron Rose".
"Interesting, let's go, I want to ask that little baron who gave him the courage to steal my supplies!"
Bach led the army to the gate of Rose Town in a mighty manner.
Lancaster and Herman also learned about the invading army and rushed to the city wall immediately. They quietly observed the army under the city wall and found that they were indeed the knights of Ironthorn Town.
"Damn it! The news is true, Iron Thorn Town is really coming!"
Lancaster recognized the Ironthorn clan emblem on the military flag below at a glance.
"Thanks to that news, we were able to prepare for war in advance, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
Herman said thankfully.
"Then what should we do now?"
"I will communicate with Baron Bach first to see if there is any misunderstanding."
Hermann showed his head and said to Bach:
"You are the lord of Ironthorn Town - Baron Bach, right?"
Hearing this, Bach looked up at the city wall and found that giant crossbows had been set up on the wall, and the militiamen had their bows and arrows ready and were nervously aiming at their own troops.
Upon seeing this, he sneered twice with disdain, and then shouted loudly:
"Yes, I am Baron Bach. Where is the famous 'Baron Rose'? Let him come out and talk to me!"
"I wonder what Mr. Bach wants to do with all his troops and troops coming to our Rose Town?"
Hermann asked Bach from the city wall.
"Aren't you talking nonsense? I brought so many knights here to attack you. Could it be that I'm here for an outing?"
"And I remember that Baron Lancaster is not as old as you. Who are you? You are worthy of talking to me. Tell that little baron to get out. Isn't he too scared to show his head?"
Bach said impatiently, while still feeling a little confused.
The lord of Rose Town didn't even have the courage to show his face and speak. How could he have the courage to rob supplies?
"Does Mr. Bach even care about the most basic noble etiquette? Why do you speak so vulgarly like a poor man? As the clerk of Rose Town, I have been entrusted by Baron Lancaster, so I am naturally qualified to talk to you. .”
"You attacked our Rose Town without any reason. You have violated the nobles' agreement to help each other. Do you want to be spurned by all the nobles?"
Herman replied without being humble or condescending.
"Oh? You do have some courage. You are much stronger than that little baron. Well, I will give you a chance to talk to me."
"You just said that I violated the noble covenant. It's really a joke. The so-called covenant is just a verbal agreement. Don't look at how many nobles still abide by this covenant."
"Besides, it seems that you violated the covenant first and took away my supplies. If I send troops to attack you and get back the supplies that belong to me, it doesn't count as a violation of the covenant at all."
Bach was not in a hurry to attack Rose Town. He wanted to characterize the war in front of both parties.
It was not that he sent troops to invade Rose Town for no reason, but that he had no choice but to fight back after being robbed of supplies. He was the victim.
There is no way, wars between nobles are like this. Even if the current situation is in chaos, if you want to start a war, you have to find a suitable reason and portray yourself as a righteous party.
Only in this way other nobles will not have objections to you, and you will receive less resistance when attacking the territory.
"Master Bach, please stop spouting nonsense. We in Rose Town have always loved peace and there is no way we could rob you of your supplies. You have to make up a more reliable excuse."
Herman almost laughed out of anger at Bach. How could Rose Town rob Ironthorn Town of supplies? Even if he borrowed some courage from Baron Lancaster, he would not dare to issue such an order.
"Who doesn't know how to frame things at will? We still think that Tieji Town stole the big milk can. There is no evidence for it. You should show us the evidence. If there is no evidence, don't pour dirty water on us."
After hearing this, Bach directly took out the family coat of arms of Rose Town, and then pointed at the pattern on the coat of arms.
"Who said I have no evidence? This family crest was accidentally lost when the group of people escaped. It has your Rose Town clan emblem on it. What else can you say now?"
Herman looked at the family crest in Bach's hand and was very surprised. This family crest indeed belonged to their Rose Town. How could it fall into Bach's hands?
Could it be that as Bach said, it was the knights from Rose Town who robbed him of his supplies, but why didn't he know about it?
