Hard Duffman, who wanted to hold Lorne's thigh tightly, would naturally meet his request.
The drafted farmers who lacked leadership were also very easy to fool.
After Duffman deceived the leading soldiers among the conscripted farmers one by one based on the confessions of the captured nobles, he successfully turned the conscripted soldiers into farmers again.
Peasants without weapons are just a bunch of poor lambs, and only a few knights leading a group of attendants can take care of them.
With such a large labor force, of course Lorne had to send his own people to look after it.
Leaving a few knights and a small number of soldiers to cooperate with the soldiers of the Duffman family, a guard of several hundred people was not afraid of these coolies escaping, and Lorne just planned to pursue Earl Charles based on Bude's position.
As a result, Meatball told him that the modified person following Bude was approaching them, which was different from the information Hader told him.
But the overall situation has been decided, and it is impossible for Earl Charles to spend so much effort setting up a trap.
"The Charles family is approaching here.
Let everyone prepare and we will give them a good welcome."
Lorne told Harder and began to make arrangements.
But Harder didn't see anyone coming to report to Lorne, and he didn't think that Earl Charles, who had already sent someone here, would send someone again.
But Lorne obviously had no intention of telling him in detail, and he didn't even give Hader a chance to ask in detail.
He didn't have the chance to ask questions until Lorne had arranged the ambush and trap.
"Your Excellency Baron, Earl Charles has already sent people here.
Even if someone comes now, they should only be a few deserters.
My people can handle it."
Before he finished speaking, Harder closed his mouth.
Because he heard the sound of horse hooves, and judging from the movement, the scale was not small.
With a conservative estimate, Harder believed that the number of the other party should be in the hundreds.
But in fact, their number was far greater than Harder had estimated.
Bude fought with the knights of the Charles family from the beginning, and followed them when they retreated.
Now of course he appears again with the knights of the Charles family.
Although they were all cavalry and should have arrived at Harder before Lorne, they did not just run away after retreating.
While searching for Earl Charles, they also gathered the remaining defeated soldiers.
Bude thought there were only a few hundred of them, but the sound of horse hooves masked the sound of subsequent footsteps.
This group of knights and infantry was close to a thousand.
Unfortunately, they failed to find Earl Charles in the darkness, and finally had no choice but to return to the Duffman family's manor to join their levies.
Thinking that the military camp with nearly 7,000 levies would not be easily breached, Lorne, who had just fought with them, was unable to continue the attack.
After seeing the calm camp, their suspicions were further confirmed.
As a result, they entered the military camp directly and received the warmest welcome from Lorne.
The defeated army naturally could not withstand successive blows, and there were not many battles.
After just a few hits from long-range weapons, most of the soldiers surrendered.
More than half of the soldiers surrendered, and there were less than two hundred knights and attendants left who could not reverse the situation.
Without making unnecessary sacrifices, under the leadership of two great knights, the most powerful force of the Charles family officially surrendered to Lorne.
There are so many knights and even two big knights, which is a completely irresistible temptation for the beast.
If all of them were converted, Lorne, who had a great knight, would be able to achieve the military strength of an earl family.
Looking at the delicious food that was captured without any help, Lorne's terrifying look with golden eyes made Hader a little scared.
In order to ease the unknown fear in his heart, he spoke.
"Your Excellency Baron, the Charles family has no chance to stand up.
There are so many knights and prisoners, and the ransom alone can wipe them out."
Next, we can wait for them to take the initiative to beg for mercy from us.
Please move to my Duffman family's manor, maybe we can consider what kind of price is more suitable. " Harder felt that it was with his help that Lorne successfully captured a large number of Charles family soldiers, so he should also have a share of the ransom.
But the beast obviously had no such intention, but Harder's reminder made him realize that it would be difficult to transform the surrendered knights and great knights into transformed humans.
There were too many witnesses at the scene, and the knights could be considered a noble class.

Killing civilians and killing nobles are completely different concepts.
If the news leaks out, he will not be able to live with it.
Exchanging them for ransom might be a good choice.
After seeing the strength of the heavily armed troops, he was more willing to use quantity to crush quality.
What's more, after this battle, the Charles family can be said to be his mortal enemy.
Maybe one day they will come to challenge him again.
When he kills these knights on the battlefield, can't they still become Meatball's food?
"The invaders haven't left yet.
As the most powerful lord here, I have the responsibility to wipe them out."
Someone actually said in public that he was the most powerful lord, secretly mocking Lorne for being a bastard without quality.
But Harder had to echo Lorne.
"Your Excellency, Baron, has done his duty, and we, the Duffman family, are willing to help you.
We can assist the Fast family in searching for the remnants of Charles's party.
As long as they have not left the Duffman territory, I can guarantee to find them all."
Harder's cooperation can save Lorne a lot of effort.
Most of the Charles family's fleeing soldiers will stay in the Duffman Territory.
Now that Harder has made such a statement, he means that he will hand them over.
Regardless of whether Lorn used them in exchange for ransom with the Charles family or used them as coolies in the end, it was a sure-fire business.
But this kind of trivial matter does not need to be handled by Harder personally, and for the sake of the friendship between the two families, Lorne feels that it would be better for Harder to continue to follow him.
"Baron Duffman really has his heart, but just leave this kind of trivial matter to his subordinates.
Why don't you come with me to witness the fate of the intruder?
I believe it will be a pleasant thing."
Not long ago, Harder was talking and laughing with Earl Charles, discussing how to deal with Lorne who had lost everything.
Now he was asked to follow Lorne to hunt down Earl Charles.
Even if his skin was as thick as a city wall, the old man still didn't know how to face Charles. count.
But Lorne's request was not arbitrary, and Harder could feel the young man's wariness.
The relationship had been hostile not long ago, and suddenly he took the initiative to get closer.
If it were him, he wouldn't trust the other person right away.
If he refused to go with Lorne, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
To get rid of the family's current predicament, Harder can only follow Lorne in everything
