Black Iron Crown

Seeing the silhouette of Fort Babs in front of him, Reiner wiped off the sweat that appeared on his forehead, and there were already many troops stationed outside the castle.

One after another the flags fluttered slowly with the summer breeze. These were the northern land lords who participated in the anti-Earl Zhebo alliance. They rushed to Babsburg immediately after receiving the news. A community that prospers and hurts, they don't want to be broken one by one by Earl Zhebo, so they appear very united.

Because Leiner's territory is almost in the northernmost part, he came relatively late, and there were already quite a lot of troops outside the city wall.

"Dear Baron Rainer, you are finally here, and everyone in Babsburg is looking forward to your visit!" Baron Belem, surrounded by more than a dozen lords, came to Rainer and said .

"You're welcome, my friend! Count Zhebo will definitely pay the price for daring to rebel against the royal family, and we must defeat him!"

"By the way!" Reiner said, "I want to introduce someone to you!"

As he spoke, he pointed to Sir Horn behind him and said, "This is Sir Horn, the reinforcements sent to us by the royal family. Unfortunately, the current experience of the royal family has been completely involved, and Earl Zhebo blocked Without the southern road, the army can't come in in large numbers, otherwise Earl Zhebo can't make any waves!"

"The royal family hasn't forgotten us, right Sir Horn?" Reiner turned to Sir Horn and asked.

He had to try his best to give these lords some confidence so that they could fight against Earl Zhebo more resolutely, so he said these words.

He didn't know what the royal family's attitude was, and he didn't know what the royal family thought about the northern border, but at least he had to win the war in front of him.

"Yes, the royal family will not forget those lords who are still loyal to the royal family under the high pressure of Earl Zhebo. The royal family will soon put down this rebellion and free up energy to deal with Earl Zhebo!" Sir Horn Said swearingly, he also knew that this war was very important, and these lords had to be given some confidence.

After exchanging pleasantries, Leiner followed the lords into Fort Babs. He endured the incomparable crowd along the way and finally entered a room, which is the place where the lords gathered together.

"I'm really sorry, Baron Rainer, all my subjects hid in my castle because they were worried about Earl Zhebo's attack. It's really my fault for not entertaining you well!" Baron Belem said apologetically.

"Well...it doesn't matter, after all, these subjects are your important foundation, and it's really important to preserve them..." Reiner shook his head and said.

"So, do you have any definite information about where Earl Zhebo has gone?" Reiner asked.

He has been on the march for the past few days, not to mention that Logan's information has been delayed for several days, so he has no idea of ​​the current location of Earl Zhebo.

"Uh... I don't know yet, but I think they should not be far away from us. It has been more than ten days since they left Mecaron. Even if the speed is slowed down due to too many people, they should arrive soon." !” Baron Belem said.

"Oh, well, let's wait here for now, but Baron Belem, we didn't bring much food this time. You know, I have expanded so many troops that it will inevitably consume a lot of food. So I hope you can provide me with a batch of food according to the original agreement!" Reiner said looking at Baron Belem in some distress.

Of course, he didn't feel ashamed, he would be a fool if he didn't take advantage of the advantages, face is nothing compared to the benefits, not to mention that although he relied on these people to fight against Earl Zhebo, why didn't they rely on himself? To fend off Count Zhebo?

"Uh..." Baron Belem hesitated a bit,

He didn't expect that Lena would ask for supplies so directly when he just came here.

"Indeed, Baron Rainer, I should provide you with food, but you have also seen my current situation. I really can't bear too much burden. I can only provide you with food for five days at most!" said Hearing these words, Baron Belem felt very heartbroken. The amount of food to feed more than a thousand people for five days is definitely not a small amount. Even Reiner struggled to get it out, let alone Baron Belem. Obviously, this time he brought out his old background.

Looking at the pained expression on the other side, Reiner could only say helplessly: "Well, although you violated our original agreement, it is not easy to see you, so I have to accept it for the sake of the Holy Father!"

After the discussion, Reiner was not in the mood to stay with the other party in this crowded, hot, and foul-smelling castle anymore.

After speaking with a group of people, he left the castle, and most of the other lords did the same.

At this time, the army outside the city wall had already set up the camp. They all had experience in this field. The camp they built was horizontal and vertical, and there were paths for shuttles between each tent, in case of emergencies.

And there is a simple fence set up on the outermost side of the camp, which was attached to the primary infantry practice points that Leiner exchanged from the system.

The area around the camp was very lively at this time. Although there were no merchants in the Northland, it was inevitable that some smart people would come to the surroundings of the camp with some gadgets to sell them.

More than 3,000 soldiers have been stationed outside the city wall, of which Leiner's army accounts for one-third, so it seems that Leiner's camp is also the most arrogant and domineering, even the golden crowned iris lion with a red background is flying over the camp. Under the blowing of the summer wind, the heraldic flag of China seems to be much more arrogant than the flags of other lords.

The soldiers and small merchants of the surrounding lords did not dare to approach them at all, because of military discipline, each of them looked like a stranger, and even the camps that approached them would be scolded by the sentry soldiers.

Sitting in his tent, Reiner was looking forward to and nervous about the upcoming war, expecting that if this war was won, then he would definitely be able to soar into the sky.

What is nervous is Earl Zhebo's military strength. There are too many, too many. He put his entire wealth, life and his future on this war. How could he not be nervous?

But nervousness is useless, time cannot stand still because of anyone, and it is impossible for Earl Zhebo to give up the attack because of his nervousness.

Time passed quickly, three days passed in a blink of an eye, and at this moment, the experienced cavalry archers who were sent by Leiner to patrol 20 kilometers away suddenly broke into his tent.

"Master Nayan! We found a very large army 18 kilometers away from here. The preliminary estimate of the number is about 5,500 to 6,000. They are wearing black brown bears with yellow backgrounds and holding swords." The flag is Earl Zhebo's army! They are coming!"
