Chapter 45, Armistice Clause

Zhou Mingyue also joined the battle at this time.

He would never dare to let him fight the enemy to the death, but he would be forced to beat the dog in the water, but he would be the first in his duty.

Earl Max was almost stunned at this time.

What's going on? Where is this? What's wrong with me?

Why did I collapse completely in an instant, which was originally with an absolute advantage?

I originally wanted to shout loudly to boost morale!

But this was useless. Several knight attendants following him instantly protected Earl Max, pulled Earl Max's horse and rushed out.

Fortunately, Viscount Hanks was good at capturing fighter jets and found that Earl Max's flag was retreating quickly. Without any hesitation, he waved forward with his right hand, lifted the iron spear hanging next to the saddle with his left hand, and then rushed towards the enemy formation.

Sure enough, the enemy formation collapsed as soon as it touched, and the calmness and calmness disappeared at all.

After panic, Earl Max was taken back to the castle by the knight attendant beside him.

As the castle gate was slowly hung up by iron chains, he completely ignored the soldiers who were still fighting fiercely outside the city!

As soon as the gate of the castle was hung up, the soldiers who were still completely resisting collapsed.

Earl Max actually gave up on himself?

In this way, some soldiers who could not hold on naturally turned around and fled.

Viscount Hanks was so happy that he was almost unable to stop laughing.

The rapid change in the battle situation was definitely beyond his expectations.

However, Earl Max fled back to the castle, which was a bit difficult to deal with.

Thinking of this, the joy brought by the previous victory also quickly dissipated in Viscount Hanks' heart.

Of course, this is not a big problem. No matter how majestic an isolated city is, it will eventually be compromised.

Viscount Hanks' side was naturally chasing and struggling for the battle. After sending five or six hundred people to monitor the castle, the remaining troops all went to chase the escaped enemies.

Zhou Mingyue was the one who worked the most during this period.

First, let Viscount Hanks give his favors, and second, those corpses can serve as resources! Especially corpses above the knights, they are all advanced resources in the judgment of the War Demons!

In addition, it is also very important to cut the grass without eradicating the roots, and the spring breeze will grow again.

But what made him a little dissatisfied was that when he led his men to capture the two barons and was about to behead his head, the knights who were catching up next to him stopped him from doing anything.

The reason is very simple. After the two barons were arrested, they immediately shouted that they could pay the ransom.

Well, in this world, the defeat and being captured by nobles is two completely different ends from the defeat and being captured by soldiers.

The soldiers were defeated and captured, partly beheaded, partly sent to the mines to work to death, and partly were sold to become slaves, and there was no ransom at all.

But it is different if the nobles are defeated and captured. The nobles can pay the ransom to redeem themselves!

In fact, this is not uncommon.

For example, Viscount Hanks' grandfather was once captured on the battlefield, and the Hanks family gave out 5,000 gold coins before they could redeem it!

This is one of the privileges of the nobles!

Even if a murder is violated, a fine can be used instead.

Of course, if you can't afford the ransom, you will not be blamed for being sold to a slave or beheaded.

However, due to long-term marriage, the relationship between these nobles was complicated.

If you really want to discuss it, most nobles have relatives.

Therefore, if you are defeated and captured in battle, you can generally survive.

Zhou Mingyue was deeply criticized by this.

But he had no choice but to do anything, it was impossible to go against public order and good customs, right?

In that case, he would not only target these two barons, but all the nobles.

As for how much ransom is, Zhou Mingyue didn't care, he cared about the knight's corpse.

Of course, the problem is not too big for the fewer corpses of the two barons. After all, if the War Demons need to advance to Sequence 5, there are quite a few advanced resources. As for the Knight corpses, at least one hundred are needed!

In other words, even if the two barons were killed, they would not be able to fill the pit for the time being.

After thinking about it, Zhou Mingyue did not join the pursuit, but turned around and returned to Max Castle.

Viscount Hanks happened to send a knight into the castle to surrender.

This is not surprising. For Viscount Hanks, although he had defeated Earl Max on his side, the loss would not be small if he wanted to break this strongly defended castle.

Under such circumstances, it is better to surrender the opponent. Although in that case, the benefits obtained will be far lower than breaking the castle, but the loss of your own strength will also become smaller.

In the Kingdom of Flor and even on this land, the strength of one's own strength is very important.

If Viscount Hanks had suffered too much loss, it was hard to say that other nobles would not have coveted him.

Looking at the knight sitting in the basket being dragged up, Zhou Mingyue felt a little regretful.

If Viscount Hanks does not make a choice to surrender, sending a flying dragon himself may not be able to defeat the castle.

After all, there is no air defense force in this castle, so it is too difficult to deal with the flying dragon.

An hour later, the knight sat down in the basket again.

He brought the armistice clause of Count Max.

The twelve villages were divided and three small towns were given to Viscount Hanks, and allowed to deal with them. The captured nobles should be redeemed by Earl Max, but the total ransom shall not exceed two thousand gold coins.

Not only Viscount Hanks was dissatisfied with the terms of the armistice of Count Max, but also the other nobles who participated in the war were dissatisfied with it.

There are too few 12 villages and 3 small towns, so there is not enough division at all.

You should know that there are 2 viscounts, 4 barons and more than 50 knights here. What do you think is the division?

After some discussion, the knight named Trell ran towards the castle, sat on the basket again and went up the city wall, bringing a new armistice clause to Earl Max.

The Earl Max tribe was divided into two-thirds and abandoned Max Castle, with a total ransom of 10,000 gold coins.

This is the terms of the armistice of Viscount Hanks.

Of course, in Earl Max's view, this is completely a lion's mouth.

Ten thousand gold coins are still a trivial matter. Can Max Castle be abandoned and two-thirds of the territory be divided?

It would be better if you killed me.

So not long after, the Knight of Trell came down again in a basket and brought Count Max's new armistice clause.

One fifth of the territory, that is, fifteen villages and five small towns.

Max Castle must be retained, and the ransom is three thousand gold coins.
