Black Iron Crown

After Leiner and these people finished talking about their intentions, they went to make their own preparations. The soldiers must know what an important day today is, and they all need to convey it in person.

Reiner returned to his room and waited for the lords to wake up, while the soldiers were already ready under the organization of their respective chief officers.

Time passed quickly, and soon after noon, those lords who were drunk last night finally got up one after another, and they just woke up and were about to go to the banquet hall to have something to eat. The servants informed that Baron Rainer was waiting for them in the hall.

The servant didn't say what Reiner's intention was, and the lords who were full of doubts rushed to the banquet hall.

I saw that the hall was a little dark at this time, and the limited windows were not enough to provide enough light for the huge building. Several oil lamps were flickering on and off, making the hall slightly dark.

"What happened? Baron Reiner?" A nobleman sat on the long table in front of Reiner, picked up a piece of cold meat and asked.

The other nobles also looked at Reiner with searching eyes, hoping to get an answer from him.

"Oh, it's nothing, I have prepared a military parade to welcome everyone, and at the same time increase your determination and courage to fight against Earl Zhebo!" Reiner raised his eyebrows and looked at the crowd and said.

The others also narrowed their eyes slightly, looking at the young Baron Reiner in front of them secretly. As the lords of a territory, they are not fools, and they all heard the implication of Reiner's words.

The lord who asked the question at the beginning put the piece of meat in his mouth and chewed it. He looked unshaven and very informal. Not only that, but also the way he ate was very bold, chewing the meat in his mouth and making loud noises .

Don't look at his very thick beard, but he is only 22 years old this year, but he looks a little old. If Reiner didn't realize it, he might be regarded as an uncle.

"That's really great. I just want to see how the soldiers under Baron Reiner's command defeated the huge Klad people by themselves!" said the bearded young nobleman.

His behavior and record of going directly north to give the Kraders a head-on blow last winter have spread throughout the entire northern border with his several victories, so they also know about Reiner.

Reiner glanced at the others, and these lords immediately expressed their willingness to participate in this event.

Smiling and nodding, Reiner was very happy, so half of his goal had been achieved.

He led a group of lords to the top of the city wall of Fort Morland, which is a full six meters high, and it is completely possible to see the situation below at a glance.

The army that received the order from Lehner had already made preparations, and the heavily armed soldiers stood in neat formation against the sun above their heads, waiting for the parade to begin.

After politely consulting the opinions of the other lords, Reiner ordered Sir Codd to start.

Sir Corder, who was galloping on a fast horse, immediately went to the distant Merland army to convey the news of the start of the military parade.

The moment the news was released, the whole team started to move.

Before the soldiers reached the city wall, Leiner took the time to smile and said to the lords around him: "All the troops participating in this military parade are my most capable troops, and all my knights are here, but I didn't recruit the army under their command, because they can't play a big role, so I only used my direct army!"

The implication of Reiner's words is to point out that so many people are all directly under his own army, not only showing off his strength in force, but also conveying to them the information that his financial situation is very good.

Nodding in surprise, although the Merland army is still far away, they can still count their numbers. Such a large army formation is obviously not a small number. In the past, when they recruited troops, even if all the serfs Counting all the sign soldiers, there is no such a huge formation.

As time passed, the soldiers who were inspected finally came to the front of the city wall.

The ones walking in the front are undoubtedly the ten blood-colored griffin knights under Reiner's command. Sir Valas walked in the front. The crown iris and lion flag fluttered slowly with the summer breeze. Although the amplitude was not large, it looked extraordinary.

The sophisticated and metallic armor of the Scarlet Griffin Knights shocked everyone. They could clearly feel how heavy the armor was, and how terrifying it was wrapped in the armor. of a strong body.

What surprised them even more was that the war horses under their crotches were so tall. An ordinary person standing next to the war horses probably reached the shoulder position, and the horses ridden by the Morand knights behind them were considered excellent. Set off by them, the war horses are as short as donkeys.

Supporting the tall and strong Scarlet Griffin Knights wearing heavy armor, and they are all wearing a chain armor that protects their whole body including the horse's legs.

The lords are people who often come into contact with weapons and armor, and they can tell at a glance whether they are good or not, which makes them so surprised.

Some lords and the nobles beside them looked at each other, and everyone could see unconcealable shock, envy, and even a trace of fear from each other's eyes.

And there is nothing to say about the Merland knights behind. Generally speaking, they are not much different from the knights under their command, but the number is much larger than them. Generally, barons like them only have seven or eight knights, but It is not surprising that Reiner, who has annexed five territories, has such a number of knights.

In the back, there is the main force of Leiner's army, the powerful Morand sergeants, wrapped in double-layer armor, they look extremely tall and tall, holding a gun that is more than four meters long and has a cold light The long spears on the head are marching forward slowly in a neat line.

Their movements are as uniform as marionettes one by one, but from the sturdy aura they inadvertently reveal, people can tell that this is definitely an army with strong combat effectiveness, and they can afford to fight like that. The armor is the best proof.

The lords who watched this military parade became more and more frightened. With such an army, they could almost sweep away all the lords of the baron level. Apart from fear and shock, their confidence in uniting against Earl Zhebo was greatly enhanced. few.

The opposition to Reiner's desire to be the leader also gradually weakened.
