Come to another world and become a lord
Chapter 50 Trial of Traitors
From the beginning of Carl's charge to the end of the battle, the village chief Hake and his son Dickens, who were standing on the watchtower, saw it all clearly. Aeron was defeated, and it was defeated instantly. Alia and her Fire Rose Guards, as a team of experienced mercenaries, showed amazing combat effectiveness, which was a dimensionality reduction blow to those of them who may have never fought a war in their lives.
Dickens asked his father in a trembling voice:
"Now how to do?"
Huck put the pipe into his mouth tremblingly, took out a match and tried to light the tobacco for a long time but failed. Finally, he took the pipe off and shouted to the crowd below in panic:
"Quick, close the city gates. Everyone, get on the sentry tower! Get ready, get ready for battle!"
The voices were filled with fear. Several young men hurriedly closed the temporary wooden door at the entrance of the village and moved some random items to block the door. Then men and women climbed up the watchtower with bows and arrows. They looked panicked, their hands and feet were stiff because of fear, and some of them couldn't even hold their weapons, let alone fight.
Carl's troops had already arrived at the city. Carl no longer had the joy of defeating Iren. Instead, he looked at the Harkers on the sentry tower with cold eyes. He only hated them. He had tried to let go of his hatred and give them another chance, but they betrayed him in return for his generosity. Traitors are the most unforgivable thing in this world.
"My fellow villagers of Porter Village!" He shouted loudly while standing under the wooden wall. "The culprit of this war is the family of Chief Hark. They betrayed the lord and broke their oath. Their crimes are unforgivable. I will only punish them, not you! I know that you were just coerced by them and had no choice. As your lord and a member of Porter Village, I don't want to hurt anyone! From now on, except for the village chief's family, anyone who is willing to surrender will not be held accountable for anything they have done!"
"Don't listen to him! He is just lying to you!" Dickens shouted anxiously.
"Shoot, shoot now!" Huck shouted, "Shoot Carl!"
After hearing Hake's shout, one of the men on the sentry tower raised his bow towards Carl, but before he could shoot, a sharp arrow had already pierced his chest. Under the wooden wall, Alia shot an arrow first. But the other man whimpered a few times, and then fell headfirst. At this moment, everyone was stunned, and the half-raised bows were put down again. After that, no one dared to attack again. They just stood on the sentry tower, hesitating, and lost their minds because of fear.
Seeing that the militiamen above dared not shoot any more arrows, Karl showed a look of joy and continued to shout:
"Open the city gates! You are all innocent!"
After hearing Karl's words, people fell into hesitation and confusion again. Some people had already moved towards the wooden door. At this moment, Dickens suddenly shouted:
"Don't open the city gate! I will kill anyone who opens the city gate!"
He shouted as he drew his sword, rushed down the watchtower, and blocked the wooden door on the road to the village entrance.
"Who dares to open the city gate? Don't blame my sword for being blind!" He continued to roar in frustration, and for a moment stopped those who originally wanted to open the gate.
Alia and Carl heard his roar outside the city, every word was clear. Even though there was a wooden wall blocking their view, they could still guess what was going on inside.
Alia sighed helplessly:
"What a waste of time~"
Then she suddenly let out a long roar, kicked the horse's belly, and rushed directly towards the wooden door, raising her halberd at the same time. Then Carl witnessed another shocking scene. The girl in red armor and her red warhorse, like a red chariot, directly crashed into the wooden door. With a loud bang, countless wood chips and piled up debris flew around.
Dickens could never have expected something like this to happen. One moment he was standing in front of the door brandishing his sword to threaten anyone who dared to approach, and the next moment he was kicked away by the horse's hooves and plunged headfirst into a grass valley, with the sword in his hand falling to the ground.
Alia rode the horse, and after a few quick steps, she pulled the reins and shouted loudly to the stunned villagers:
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
At this moment, everyone finally laid down their weapons, and the farce in Porter Village came to an end.
The home of Hark, the village chief of Porter Village, was now used by Karl as a temporary courtroom to try prisoners. In the small reception room, Karl sat on the chair that the village chief often sat on, and squinted at the people outside the house through the crack in the door. Hark, the village chief, his son Dickens, and Baron Iren were in the courtyard outside, tied up by the guards and kneeling on the ground. What Karl noticed was that Lisa was also among them, and the family of the traitor was tied up together. He tapped the chair with his fingers, thinking about how to deal with these people, and someone handed him ale.
Soon the door was pushed open, and Jim came in first. After being rescued, he ran all the way here at the fastest speed. Jim was in a very sorry state at this time, his clothes were torn to shreds, his severed fingers were bandaged carelessly, the bandages had turned yellow and were bleeding, his face was bruised, and his left eye was swollen like a panda. In addition, his half-naked upper body also had obvious bruises, which showed that he had been beaten more than once.
Carl tore off a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth, then took a sip of beer and asked without raising his head:
"You were beaten. Who beat you? Aeron?"
Jim shook his head.
He asked again:
"Dickens?"
This time, Jim nodded.
"Huck is involved?"
Jim nodded again.
Carl understood now. He put down the bread in his hand, exhaled, and then said:
"I understand~"
Jim looked guilty and hesitated as he tried to say something:
"Karl, I..."
"Stop talking." Karl interrupted him, "Just come back... Leave the rest to me."
After hearing what Carl said, Jim stopped talking and just lowered his head in shame.
Then everyone heard Carl shout in an unusually sharp and loud voice:
"Bring up the criminals Huck and Dickens!"
Then the village chief Hake and Dickens were pushed in by the guards, kneeling on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs. They no longer had the arrogance they once had, their faces were covered with mud, and their expressions were extremely lonely. Dickens was even worse off than his father. Alia's attack directly kicked him and injured him internally. He was staggering when he walked, and there were two obvious horseshoe marks on his back, which was red and swollen.
Karl glanced at the two of them with contempt, and then said lightly:
"Hang them both and hang them at the door."
After hearing Carl's words, Huck instantly became excited and cried out:
"Please spare my life, Lord, please spare my life!"
Dickens was no worse than his father, enduring the pain and begging for mercy:
“Karl, Karl, please, this is all my father’s idea, it has nothing to do with me!”
After hearing his son's words, Huck immediately changed his face and cursed:
"Bullshit! It was you who instigated me, sir. He is the culprit! Kill him, kill him!"
"No, no, Carl, it's not like that!" Seeing his father expose him, Dickens shook his head in panic, "By the way, Lisa, I don't want Lisa anymore. Haven't you always liked her? She is yours~ I will let her serve you well, as long as you spare my life~"
Looking at Dickens' nonsense, Carl just blinked:
"I say you……"
He wanted to say something, but didn't know where to start.
Dickens continued:
"How about it, Carl, isn't this a good deal? Let me go and Lisa will be yours."
Finally, Carl sighed and waved to the guard:
"Drag him away for execution. I have nothing to say."
After hearing his words, Huck's face turned pale, while Dickens twisted his body unwillingly and kept shouting:
"No, wait, Karl, Karl, this is not fair, why can you be the lord and I have to die? This is not fair. You are just a serf, why can you be the lord?"
Karl suddenly raised his head, looked at him angrily and shouted:
"Why do you ask me? Dickens~ You are an idiot, and you won't understand even if I tell you. Remember to be smarter in your next life."
Then he waved his hand, and four guards came forward and lifted up the two men. Dickens was carried out amid constant shouting.
Then he thought of something and said to himself:
"Oh, yes, and Lisa."
