Chapter 268: 263： The Age of Independent Lords

"The contents of this letter..."

Willy's face instantly turned ugly, and the relaxed expression that was still playing with Veria completely disappeared.

The content of the letter instantly shocked Willy's mind.

The top-level struggle between the Principality of Langton, the Principality of Wata and the Principality of Sosun broke out suddenly, the royal family of the Duchy of Langton was destroyed, and the capital fell.

At the same time, the Golden Flower City in Daweibull Province suffered a large number of extraordinary captures, the central city collapsed, and the Earl of Lumbar... died.

"This handwriting and signature..."

The muscles in Willie's face twitched slightly.

The handwriting was scribbled, but looking at the signed signature, Willy still confirmed the owner of the handwriting.

"Kirke... it's a letter from Kirk..."

Willie's face was quite ugly.

Since this news came from Kirk, there is basically no need to doubt it.

"Why so suddenly..."

Willie was full of questions.

Although he had long guessed that a large-scale battle would break out after the peace between the two countries, Willy never thought that the war at the bottom had not yet entered the right track, and the war at the top had ended.

"Kirke said in the letter that he had taken the young son of Earl Lumbar to go overseas, and at the same time asked me to be prepared for the territory."

Willy's eyes narrowed slightly, and he forcibly calmed down: "Kirke also said that this news has not been widely spread yet, and it should take another week to ferment if it wants to spread to the entire Principality of Langton..."

"Call Sandor, Dahn, and my eldest brother Thorpes to the town hall to gather."

Willy stood up and ordered to the personal soldier.

"Yes."

The personal soldiers who delivered the letter did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly turned and left.

"Willi, what happened?"

Veria, who was about to leave, stopped, and she saw the change in Willy's expression just now.

In Veria's impression, Willy never seemed to have such an expression.

"It's nothing, don't worry."

Willy walked to Veria's side, then squatted down and smiled at her.

I was really too frightened just now, and I didn't take into account Veria's feelings, which should have caused her some panic.

"Is it a job that needs to be dealt with suddenly?"

Veria stared at Willy's eyes with a puzzled look.

Willy nodded: "Yes, it's just an ordinary job."

"Will it delay the big brother's wedding then?"

Vilia instinctively felt that the work Willy was about to deal with seemed complicated.

"Won't."

Willy touched Veria's head.

This is the first wedding of the Faerun family since he came to this world, and Willy has to make sure it goes smoothly.

But today, Willide has re-planned the next development program of White Bear Town.

"Okay, Veria, go back to your room, you haven't finished your history homework yesterday, have you?"

Willy shrugged at Veria, and there were no other emotional fluctuations on his face.

Veria nodded: "Then I'll go back to the room."

Veria was very obedient this time. She instinctively felt that Willy needed to deal with this matter, so she would not delay Willy's work.

Willy looked at the back of Veria leaving, and the smile just now disappeared.

For a long time to come, the Principality of Langton will not fall into peace. The demise of the lord means the collapse of the lord system under his command. Even if White Bear Town is located on the southwestern border, it will definitely be involved.

"Prepare your horse and go to the town office."

Willy turned to go downstairs, and at the same time ordered to the waiter standing in the corridor.

When the crisis came, Willy's first thought was to protect the safety of his family.

Town Office.

Sandor's office room.

At this time, the lord baron of White Bear Town and the three most powerful men in the territory gathered together.

Just now, Sandor, Dan, and Thorps received an urgent call from Baron Willie to meet them at the town hall together.

Sandor was better. After Dahn and Thorps received the news, they rushed over from the Coast Guard and the Guards Department without stopping.

"Everyone, we might be in trouble."

A few people just sat together, Willy suddenly said.

"trouble?"

As soon as Willie said this, the expressions of the three people present changed slightly.

It seems that this is the first time that such a thing has come from Baron Willy's mouth.

No matter what happened before, Baron Willy never seemed to be so dignified.

"Lord Baron..."

Sandor frowned, with a questioning tone: "The trouble you're talking about is..."

"Maybe you will all be surprised, or even disbelieving, but this is the truth..."

With that said, Willy handed the letter sent by Kirk to Sandor first.

Sandor took it and began to browse the contents of the letter.

While Sandor was reading the letter, Dahn and Thorps on the side were keenly aware of the change in Sandor's expression.

It was calm at first, then shocked, and then it was like seeing something bizarre, and the expression of disbelief seemed to freeze.

"This...how is this possible?"

Sandor raised his head blankly. Although Willy had made mental preparations before, Sandor still couldn't believe it was true.

In Sandor's eyes, Count Rumbar is powerful and unoffensive, and as for the royal family of the Duke of Langton, it is even more out of reach.

However, now, the Golden Flower City and the capital have been destroyed, and the Earl of Lumbar and the Grand Duke have died...

This news, as long as normal people come into contact with it, will have a strong impact.

"what happened?"

Seeing that Sandor's movements were a little sluggish, Dahn took the letter in Sandor's hand directly.

Thorps on the side no longer waited, but went directly to Dahn's side, and the two read the contents of the letter together.

A minute later, Dahn and Thorps' expressions became exactly the same as Sandor's.

Seeing this, Willy didn't speak. He knew that he had to give the three of them some time to adapt.

"Lord Baron, is this really Lord Kirk's handwriting?"

The three were silent for a while before Sandor spoke slowly.

Although Willy said it was true, it still seemed unbelievable now.

"yes."

Willie nodded solemnly.

Immediately afterwards, the house fell into extreme calm again.

"Now, you should also know what this drastic change will bring, right?"

Willy looked at the three of them, and then took the letter from Dahn's hand back to his hand: "According to what Kirk said, the Duchy of Wata and the Duchy of Thorsen have ended the extraordinary war at the top, and the next step is to deal with the extensive The small lord's lands were annexed."

"But you should also know that this is not an easy process."

Willie refolded the letter and put it in his pocket.

"Indeed it is……"

Sandor looked at each other and saw the worry in everyone's eyes.

Although history will never repeat, there are always certain laws in the change of dynasties and the rotation of authority.

Destroying a principality, first of all to deal with its biggest lord, and then to gradually deal with those weak lords.

In this process, it will take a very long time.

Just like after the Principality of Lengshi was destroyed by the Grand Duke of Khaziel, it took the Principality of Langton a hundred years to completely gather the small territories like scattered sand and truly turn them into the territory of the Principality of Langton.

For the annexation of the little lord, it is a very time-consuming thing.

Because after destroying a principality, the successor needs to consume a lot of energy to rebuild the order, and then continue to integrate after stabilizing the key nodes.

In this process, due to the collapse of the lord system, all the small lords, in the legal sense, became independent lords.

Some of these independent lords will take the initiative to join the successor who destroyed the duchy, but very few lords do so, because in the early days of the turmoil, the successor could not provide an effective guarantee for the surrender, but instead provided the new lord with his own resources. make them fall into a crisis of resource scarcity.

In normal times, a temporary shortage of resources is nothing, but when the lord system collapses and there are many independent lords, this is a disaster.

Whenever the system is chaotic, there will always be some ambitious people who seize this opportunity to enrich their own strength, so that they can transform from independent small lords to big lords.

Once you become an independent lord, you will have a lot of freedom. They can cultivate top-level extraordinary, seize the opportunity to continue to fight for hegemony, and even become a small principality independently if they can get the support of some major forces. Even if you choose to belong to a new duchy lord, you can get more rewards and support with the resources you hold.

So every time it comes to such an important node of kingdom replacement, the most terrifying thing is not being conquered by the new lord and asking for submission, but being invaded and annexed by other ambitious independent lords.

Compared with the new duchy lords, these independent lords are more cruel.

"Lord Baron, things have developed to this point..."

Dan frowned: "Then will it soon become the era of independent lords..."

The era of independent lords.

Sandor and Thorpes also turned their attention to Willy.

Willy nodded: "If history has not deceived us, we may be entering a turbulent era of war."

"call……"

Sandor's hearts ~www.novel35.com~ suddenly suppressed.

The era of peace is over and the era of war is coming. Thinking of the cruel description of the process of hegemony in the history books, several people have a feeling of numbness in their hair.

"What a sudden challenge..."

Sandor held his forehead, clearly suffering from a headache, as did Dahn and Thorpes.

"Ok?"

But after Sandor suddenly glanced at Willy, he suddenly had a strange feeling.

Sandor suddenly realized a problem.

Although Baron Willy said from the beginning that White Bear Town was in trouble, his performance seemed too indifferent.

"Could it be..."

Sandor thought of a possibility, and his heart trembled inexplicably.
