Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Linde interrupted the topic directly and said, "Let's report the results of the battle first."

Seeing that Linde changed the subject, Laurie became even more curious. He felt that Linde was trying to cover up something, but he had no choice but to start reporting to Linde.

The army of 50,000 was very water-rich, but almost all the nobles in the western part of the Northern Territory participated in this battle. Although the noble coalition forces that had not yet entered the valley ran away, the leaders of the coalition forces could be said to have either died or surrendered.

The situation of the coalition forces in the middle section of the valley was not much better. The good news was that they did not have to face Lars's knights and ray guns. The bad news was that they were blocked at both ends and suffered the most casualties, because the death toll caused by the pushing of the crowds and the loss of control of the horses was probably more than that caused by the artillery.

As for those professionals who managed to escape in the end, Lowry did not chase them.

According to the convention of aristocratic wars, Lind can demand a large amount of ransom and land this time, but this is not an ordinary aristocratic war, and Lind does not need to abide by the so-called aristocratic rules against this group of people who broke the rules first, so this time Lind plans to swallow as much territory as he can.

There is no turning back now. It is impossible to joke around with these nobles anymore. Lind must absorb a large amount of land and population to complete his subsequent series of research.

Includes a lathe, power source, new gunpowder and a magic stone tower.

Although the Gray-Collar population might not be able to control the next huge territory if they were all scattered, the old butler Sebastian had already sent a message to the elders of Lars in Winter Castle that Lind needed Lars' prestige and population to assist him in managing the next territory.

After Lowry finished his report, Lind praised the two civilian laborers individually. The two civilian laborers looked young and could be trained as officers in the future. The gray-collar workers were already rushing to make medals to encourage the soldiers who fought bravely in this battle. Lind even planned to use the two civilian laborers as examples of the battle to promote and encourage them.

After hearing Lind's praise, Sean and Colin were extremely excited and saluted Lind with the military salute they had just learned.

At this moment, the old butler brought Ruby to the camp. Ruby excitedly jumped from the old butler's arms and ran to Linde.

"Brother-in-law! We won the fight, didn't we?"

"That's right, the bad guys were beaten away by my brother-in-law."

Linde squatted down and touched Ruby's head lovingly.

At this time, Ruby turned her head and glanced at the two civilians beside her, and shouted excitedly: "Brother! You are still alive!"

"Brother-in-law, did you find Brother Sean and Brother Colin? Brother-in-law is awesome."

The old butler ran over and shouted as excitedly as Ruby: "Master, that's great, you are still alive."

The whole audience fell into an eerie silence.

Seeing this, Sean had to come out and explain: "Let me introduce myself again. I'm Sean Lars, and this is my brother, Colin Lars. Brother-in-law, we're really happy to meet you."

Linde's face darkened immediately, and he silently withdrew his praise for these two people. Do these two have a bad relationship with Reina? Why did they not say a word when they arrived in Fason Town, and secretly became civilians?

Moreover, Linde originally assumed that the two brothers-in-law were either dead or missing. If these two showed up, then I am afraid that the Lars in Winterfell would turn around and support these two people.

For a moment, Lind even thought of killing them, but he quickly ruled out this idea. Not to mention that these two people were also Lena's relatives. If they died in his own territory, it would be a huge problem. Besides, when did he become so cold-blooded?

Looking at the two excited people, Lind just nodded, and his attitude was obviously not as enthusiastic as before.

But Sean and Colin were not affected at all. Sean said directly: "Brother-in-law, we actually have some scattered guards in and around Farson Town. We will gather these guards together to help you clean up the mess. From now on, you will be in charge of these people."

Hearing this, Linde's expression looked a little better.

Although the two brothers were still immersed in the praise Linde had given them earlier, the old butler Sebastian had already understood from Linde's expression.

Linde's position is indeed very difficult now. He originally thought that he could rely on this victory to successfully integrate the remaining Lars, but now there are suddenly two more legitimate successors of Lars. Anyone would definitely be troubled.

The old butler has already seen that Sean and Colin do not have the ability to integrate and revitalize Lars, but out of loyalty to Grand Duke Lars, the old butler does not know how to choose.

Not long after, Reina also met her two younger brothers. The siblings hugged each other, cried and comforted each other, creating a happy scene.

Subsequently, many nobles wrote letters to distance themselves from Wesker and sent large sums of money, hoping that Lind would release the captives of their family.

This time, because the nobles brought their family descendants here to gild themselves, many families have lost both their heads and heirs at the same time. However, Lind suppressed it until Lars's ship reappeared on the River of Tears.

Probably because Linde's side won the battle, and the attitude of the royal capital seemed to have subtly changed, the pressure on Winterberg was suddenly reduced. This time, the ship carried not only supplies, but also the elders of the Lars family.

Although these elders are not Lars' direct descendants, they all hold an important position, but that's all. After all, under the feudal system, no matter how powerful the elders' say is, it is not greater than that of Lars' legitimate heirs. The reason why Grand Duke Lars did not choose to force Sean to take the throne was simply because he was afraid of causing chaos, not because he could not do it.

The elders came here mainly to confirm with Lind the power transfer of the Lars family. After all, Ruby was too young, and from previous perspective, Lena was the only heir to Lars' eldest son's line.

Lena had no ability to govern, and everything was managed by Linde, so the elders originally wanted to give the title of heir to Lena and give the real power to Linde, so that at least the Lars family could continue to exist and the legitimate position would not be stolen by those Lars traitors.

But now something different has happened. The long-missing Sean and Colin have appeared, and the elders suddenly have two new candidates for succession.

The best outcome, of course, is to let Lind continue to work for the Lars family, and then Colin or Sean will inherit the remaining inheritance of the Lars family. The worst outcome is that the two sides will fall out, and then the elders will use the resources of the Lars family to support the two brothers.

Because the elders have eaten Lind to death and now they need the population of the Lars family to help control the territories of those nobles. If Lind refuses, Winterberg can send troops to take over the territories of those defeated nobles in the name of Lars. After all, isn't Lind fighting under the banner of Lars' orthodoxy and revenge for Grand Duke Lars?

Then it’s normal for our Lars family to take over, right?

Even though the current situation is that Linde has stabilized, even though Linde's reputation has begun to gradually rise, and even though there are rumors that Linde is a descendant of the ancient empire, these elders are unwilling to give up even the slightest chance.

Because the example of Augustine is still fresh in front of us. Augustine I usurped the throne by becoming the son-in-law. In the eyes of the elders, Linde is now a replica of Augustine I, with a better record, but insufficient power under his command.

If Lind were to take over the Lars family like this, it would not be much better than being killed by a traitor on the other side.

With this mentality, the elders stepped into the town of Fasen.
