The Mark Legion's capture of Oshevido Castle can be said to be a brilliant victory. As a castle with a long history in Stockingshire, Oshevido Castle has always been the political center of the Steting nobles' realization of their respective families. It can be said that the people who won Oshevido Castle were equivalent to winning the support of the Steting nobles. Although Baron Bank's crazy actions turned this castle with a century-old history into a scorched earth, Schwab's capture of the castle through tough force has shown his strength. Next

It is the reaction of the five major families who once ruled the Seddingshire for half a century. This is the critical moment for them and their family to enter glory or destruction. The Lunell family, who first discovered this keenly, was almost suppressed by the joint efforts of other families. Their leader Baron Lunell quickly recovered from his discouragement after failing to contact Schwab and immediately sent his eldest son as an envoy to congratulate Schwab on his brilliant victory.

"How do we respond to the Lunell family?" Schwab discussed with Sir Koro and others in a defense tower in Oshevido Castle. Because the tower where the lord's hall was burned by Baron Bank, Schwab had to choose a defense tower that was only the main tower, as a temporary residence and command post.

"Of course I'll send it back." Magnus and other Steding nobles had no good feelings for the five major families. It was not easy to be ruled by the five major families for a long time. The economic lifeline in the county was usually in the hands of the five families, while other nobles could only gain a little benefit from their teeth.

"Let's hear what they say." Sir Koro and Sir Liugudi suggested to Schwab from a strategic perspective.

"Okay, bring in someone," Schwab said.

"Great Earl, please allow me to congratulate you on your brilliant victory." While Baron Lünel's eldest son, Lünel, was waiting in the castle of Oshevido, he looked at the sturdy castle with a century-old history. At this time, the castle was full of ruins and thick smoke everywhere, which shocked him hugely. Before the Lunel family had become evil with other families, he was here and was then he was here.

The walls piled up by huge stones and the interlaced defense towers were stunned. Compared with this castle, the castle of his family was just a small pile of soil. However, now this castle, known as the never-fall, was defeated vulnerable. When he saw several bronze cannons on several carriages placed in the corner of the castle, he looked at the weapon called the Wrath of the King with awe. Times have changed, and Little Lunel thought in his heart.

"Oh, are you the eldest son of Baron Lünel?" Schwab looked at the tall and thin young man, wearing a small felt hat with wool, curly blonde hair spread on his shoulders, straight nose and green eyes looking at himself curiously. This was a handsome and graceful young nobleman, his thin linen shawl was covered with dust, and it was obvious that he was coming in dust.

"Yes, Lord Earl." Little Lunel bowed respectfully to Schwab. Although he felt the hostility of Magnus and others around him, he still stood up straight immediately without being humble or arrogant.

"What's the matter with you asking me for? Could it be that I'm here to tell me the secret passage of Oshevik Castle, right?" Schwab said in a mocking tone. The nobles made hissing laughter. Baron Rünel's trick was exposed in public by Schwab, but Lünel did not react at all and still faced Schwab with a gentle smile.

"Sorry, Lord Earl, if we knew that the wrath of the king you have was so sharp, we would have been more sincere, but that secret passage does exist. If you don't know, you may lose your head when you fall asleep."

"What? Are you testing me?" Schwablu said with some dissatisfaction. This little Lunell was too brave. You must know that this was in a castle controlled by Schwab. If Schwab was angry, his body might be hung on the wall.

"I dare not, I just report it according to the truth." After Little Lunell bowed, he could not see any reaction from his calm face. Schwab became interested in this person who was bold and threatening him.

"Why do you want to betray that secret passage? You must know that although I am the monarch Steding, the Duke of Han Ruowei, as far as I know, you are against my rule." Schwab said without any scruples.

"To survive, Lord Earl."

"Do you have to sell your compatriots to survive?" Schwab said with a smile, and these words made the Stedetin nobles sitting around him feel a little uncomfortable, but Schwab didn't care because he would use a series of means later, which made these nobles no longer have the power to oppose him.

"Well, you can say that to survive in this dangerous era, of course, some flexibility is needed. The stubborn people who do not know how to adapt can only perish." Little Lunel was stunned. He probably did not expect Schwab to say so unscrupulously. You must know that monarch rule is often achieved through nobles, and Schwab's attitude that completely ignored the Stededin nobles was trying, but this novel feeling made the young man feel a little eager to try.

"Okay, tell me your conditions." Schwab knew that the other party would not be congratulating him or to say that his ideal was as simple as it was, and they must be engaging in some political purpose.

"Yes, we want to be your vassal. Of course, we don't need your fiefdom, just ensure our inherent land." Seeing that Schwab had no false words, Little Lunel simply showed up and told Schwab about the conditions of his family. Of course, there are still traps in this.

"Do you bully us Marks people and don't know your situation?" Srick, who was standing behind Schwab, said in dissatisfaction. At this time, Little Lunell faced the man hiding in the shadow next to the window. He originally thought it was Schwab's escort or something, but it seemed that it was not as simple as the guard.

"What does this mean?" asked Lünelle.

"Hmph, Count, as far as I know, the land of the Lunell family has been almost occupied by the other four major families. They basically just huddled in strongholds dominated by family castles, controlling some surrounding land, and even said arrogantly to us what to guarantee their inherent territory. Isn't this a joke?" Srick looked at Little Lunell as if mocking their childishness and the trick of trying to deceive Schwab.

"We are just waiting for the best opportunity to attack, not that we cannot recover our land." Little Lunell was young after all, and he blushed and argued with a strong face. He originally thought that these Marks came from afar and did not know the situation, but it seemed that the other party had clearly touched the situation in Stockingshire.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really interesting. Do you want to kill someone with a knife?" Schwab touched the golden beard on his chin. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the young nobleman who seemed to have rushed out after a fight, but this seemed to be a good opportunity.

"Sir, don't be fooled. Baron Lunel is a famous old fox." Magnus walked to Schwab's side and said in a low voice in Schwab's ear.

"Very good, then I'll be used once, but your conditions need to be changed." Schwab straightened his body, and those who knew him understood that this was Schwab's subconscious action that was determined. Sure enough, Schwab's speech was amazing.

"Oh, please tell me Lord Earl." Little Lunell thought Schwab would reject him, and this was the last chance of the Lunell family.

"Your territory must be reduced, you must join my troops, and your father will swear allegiance to me, otherwise everything will be free."

"This, okay, I agree, but our land cannot be reduced by more than half. This is our bottom line." Little Lunel breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, as long as Schwabkan sent troops to rescue, this would be a thank you God.

"Master Earl, are you?" Everyone else was curious about why Schwab agreed to this condition. You should know that this is an enemy of the four major families.

"Very good, I announce that the Lunel family is already a vassal of my Earl of Stettin. Any attack on my vassal is a challenge to my glory and authority." Schwab announced that Srick's eyelids were a challenge to my glory and authority. It turned out that Schwab wanted to obtain a more sufficient reason for starting a war. After all, protecting his vassal is the responsibility and obligation of any monarch, but it is a little unwise to fight with the four major families at the same time.

"Your wish is what we wait for~~~." The Steding nobles who were already tied to a chariot had to stand up and wave their fists, swear allegiance to Schwab.

"So, I am your hostage." Perhaps after completing the task, Little Lunell was much more relaxed. He found a seat in the positions of the nobles who left, sat down and said to Schwab. In fact, what Little Lunell did not expect was that the one who could defeat Baron Bank was a noble of about the same age as him. Looking at Schwab's young face, Little Lunell was a little jealous and injustice.

"It's almost the same, but don't be happy. There is no such thing as giving preferential treatment to the hostages here. You want to join the battle with other noble children." Schwab looked at Little Lunell and felt that his mentality was indeed a bit too old recently. The other party's young vitality seemed to be a roommate who was playing with him, so Schwab unconsciously relaxed.

"No, I'm you, after all, an earl, why don't you have such a demeanor?" Little Lunell complained. Looking at his angry look, Schwab suddenly wanted to tease him, so he looked at him seriously. Schwab's serious expression made Little Lunell nervous unconsciously.

"Well, I have one thing I want to ask you?"

"What, what?"
