Come to another world and become a lord

Chapter 154 Besieged on four sides

In the central tent of the Dorenso army, Yasha stood in front of the map. Unlike when she was beside Mia, she no longer had the childlike smile on her face, but a more stern look. She narrowed her eyes and stared at the panoramic view of Morgan Territory, her fingertips slowly moving across the map, crossing various important strongholds. Baron Diva and Baron Gus in the west surrendered without a fight. Her troops have already controlled the entire west of Morgan Territory, and just now a soldier came to report: Campbell has led his troops to capture Rodburg. In addition, Edgar also clearly stated that he stood on their side, and Bardo remained neutral.

Not long ago, at the instigation of Victor, the knights of the Barony of White belonging to Arya also launched a rebellion. They were the old subordinates of the deceased Patrick. When Victor cut off Patrick's head to seek credit, these people dared not say a word in order to survive. It is expected that they will betray their new master again.

Now all that remains are Selena's Greven Valley, Candlewood Keep, Reikland, and North Fortress.

Victor stood aside with a satisfied smile on his face. He held a glass of red wine in his hand, swirling the glass leisurely, and said proudly: "See, it's an easy solution. Most of the Morgan Territory is under our control. Those old nobles are still good at changing their ways according to the situation."

However, Yasha just glanced at him, and then said calmly:

"Don't be too complacent. Candle Castle and Rick Castle, the two largest castles in Morgan Territory, are still in their hands."

It goes without saying that Fengzhu Castle is the largest city in Morgan Territory and the center of population. This city alone controls more than half of the productivity of the entire territory. Rick Castle is the largest and most solid fortress in the north. Its population is not large, but during the period when Carl was in charge, the population began to grow, especially the wars against Morton, which led to refugees from all over the world pouring into Rick Castle. The current population has reached more than a thousand people.

In Yasha's opinion, as long as the two cities were still in the hands of the enemy, it would be useless to take more land. Moreover, the enemy's reaction speed was very timely, and the main force was transferred to the main city in advance, so it seemed that victory was in sight, but in fact, the enemy was not hurt at all.

Victor smiled disapprovingly: "Don't worry, now that more than half of the nobles in Morgan Territory have turned to us, they have no ability to resist, and it is only a matter of time before we capture the two cities."

"Really?" Yasha smiled and said in a very gentle voice, "Was Morton always so optimistic at the beginning?"

Hearing this, Victor immediately closed his mouth and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.

Then I heard Yasha say:

"He used only a few hundred people to defeat Morton. I will never underestimate such an opponent."

"The person you are talking about is Carl, but he is not here now." Victor replied, his expression at this moment was as ugly as if he had eaten shit.

"Even so, his men are not easy to deal with, Alia and Selena..." Yasha said, especially Alia. It was because of her that Parn was still holding on to the North Fortress and blocking the troops of Sirod outside. She knew Selena more or less. Her father was poisoned by Morton and her cousin wanted to usurp the throne. She was a weak girl, but she was able to escape from such a dangerous situation. Such a person was not simple.

"Come to think of it, a monster like Campbell was defeated by Alia and was injured! How interesting! I am becoming more and more interested in that woman!" The speaker was the female swordsman Hilde, who began to get ready for a fight as she spoke.

"It's really hard to deal with~" Yasha sighed, "So you'd better not make any moves before Dongfang Yao comes back."

"What? You think I can't handle her alone?" Hilde showed an unconvinced expression.

"I'm afraid you'll lose your life because of your blind arrogance," Yasha said.

"I am even more dissatisfied when you say that!" Hilde shouted.

"Hilde, if it's just you, I have no right to interfere with what you do, but this matter concerns the future of Lady Mia. Do you understand?" Yasha said.

"I know~ Damn it, you always use this kind of excuse to stop me..." Hilde complained impatiently.

"In short, everyone, act according to the plan. If nothing unexpected happens, we will soon take over Morgan County." Yasha said, and suddenly sighed, "It's a pity that Carl can't see his own failure with his own eyes~"

"I thought you didn't want him here," Victor complained.

"In the big picture, yes. But from an individual perspective, especially from the perspective of a strategist, I would rather have a fair game with him than take advantage of this unpredictable accident." Yasha said, and sighed again, "But there probably won't be this opportunity."

At the same time, on the wall of the North Fortress, Rhodes looked at the dense army of Sirod below the city and felt a little sad. He had just gained his own territory, but this happened. Speaking of which, Karl had promised to give him more in the future, but now everyone was captured by the tribe. He was left alone in this broken fortress, facing enemies that were more than ten times his number. This was really miserable.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the "White Knight" Sirod walking out of the army alone. He was wearing a white helmet and white armor, riding a white horse, holding a silver spear in his hand, and his eyes were dazzling. He was so majestic that Rhodes' heels went weak and he began to retreat.

Then he heard Siloed shout:

"Lord Rhodes! I am going on this expedition to punish Karl. He brutally killed the legitimate lord of Morgan Territory. His crime is unforgivable! This matter has nothing to do with you. If you are willing to give way, I promise not to touch you at all!"

"You, you promise?" Rhodes said hesitantly.

He suddenly came to his senses. Yes, the person that Siloed wanted to deal with was Karl, not him! He was not Karl's vassal, so why should he guard the country's border for him? If the other party just wanted to borrow it, then let them go. What does it have to do with him?

And he didn't have to worry about the other party's words being out of line. After all, he was the kingdom's military minister! He still had some face.

Thinking of this, he felt relieved. Just as he was about to speak, he saw that Parn had also walked up to the city wall and stood beside him. Then, this careless young man suddenly shouted to the people below the city before he could:

"What nonsense! Let's fight! Lord Parn is no pushover! Siloed, if you have the ability to take down my North Fortress, Rhodes and I will eat shit right there!"

Rhode was stunned when he heard this. What was going on? What do you mean by your North Fortress? This is my North Fortress, right? Besides, if you want to eat shit, eat it yourself, don't involve me, okay?

Looking at Parn on the city wall, Siloed shook his head and then shouted:

"I understand, Lord Rhodes. If that's the case, don't blame me for being rude!"

"No, wait... wait..."

Rhodes wanted to explain more, but he saw Xiluode waving his spear and shouting:

"The whole army attacks the city!"
