Chapter 928 - Assign Tasks


As for himself, he temporarily forgot about the threat from Brilliant City.

Lorne held the first war meeting since leaving the grassland.

In addition to his own men, the meeting was attended by other lords who joined him.

Such as the second son of Marquis Marco, Hayden's son, Steve who replaced Earl Baker and the new Earl Charles.

These people are considered to be the highest-level people in Lorne's team, and the others are like Kane.

Lorne, who had already eaten these little lords with their skin and bones, didn't even notify them to participate.

All they had to do was follow his orders.

And these people who were lucky enough to participate had nothing to feel honored about, because Lorne had no good intentions at all in asking them to come.

After everyone arrived, Baron Fast, who was sitting on the main seat, spoke.

"Everyone, John Carter, the traitor in the north, has sent troops.

I believe everyone has received the news.

Unfortunately, the Marquis of Ryder and the Marquis of Tucson have been bewitched by him.

There is also the Stanney family, who are already colluding with John Carter.

They have gathered together and are ready to block our way. " After counting the main members on John's side, Lorne continued.

"But we have the Mother of Holy Light, and with the help of everyone here, anyone who blocks us will be punished.

Even if they are just bewitched by villains, for the sake of the future of the North, we cannot be lenient."

Even the two marquis must be punished, Lorne's tone is really quite serious.

You must know that the two marquises control two fortresses on the border grassland.

If they really want to be liquidated, it will truly endanger the entire northern border.

But everyone here has either been taught a lesson by Lorne, or has surrendered to Lorne.

Even if everyone disagrees with what he says, no one will mention it to his face.

It was a meeting, and everything was left up to Lorne.

Baron Fast sang this one-man show very happily.

No one objected to him, so he could make arrangements to his heart's content.

"But the city of Tallinn is a symbol of our northern border.

We must not let war destroy the city built by our ancestors.

So I decided to challenge John Carter and have a head-on contest in the way we northerners do."

Tallinn City is the hometown of the Habsburg family, and its characteristics can be heard from its name.

Lorne said it in an awe-inspiring manner, but in fact the real reason was that he did not dare to attack Tallinn City.

Because even with the bravery of a reformed person who is not afraid of death, trying to capture such a city with sufficient soldiers and strong defenses will definitely take a heavy toll on him.

And Lorne still remembers clearly that after the outer city wall was laid, Tallinn City had an equally strong inner fort.

Without tens of thousands of reformers, he would not be able to capture the heavily guarded Tallinn City.

But if John can be tricked into a duel, then things will be much simpler.

It's just that John Carter is very different from other northern nobles.

It's hard to say whether he is willing to abandon the city wall and fight Lorne in the wild.

But no matter what, he had to give it a try, and for this task of humiliating John, after looking around at the people present, Lorne directly named him.

"Baron El, I wonder if you are willing to send a letter of challenge to John Carter on behalf of Miss Anna."

Baron El is the second son of Marquis Marco.

After all, he has a title and is definitely not as dispensable in the Marco family as Steve was before.

Lorne chose him because of his last name.

John must not ignore the people of the Marco family.

It's just that Baron Fast didn't mention Anna's name until now in this meeting.

You can imagine how domineering this guy is now.

But there was a reason why Anna didn't come to the meeting.

El still vaguely remembered the last time he saw Miss Hubbs, the little girl tried hard to hide her growing belly.

Counting the days, it is estimated that at this time, no matter how loose the clothes are, they can no longer hide the fact that Anna is pregnant.

Pregnancy out of wedlock is a huge stain on any aristocratic family, let alone the Habs family.

It is understandable that the shameless little girl deliberately hides herself from people.

As for Lorne, the culprit, he is naturally happy that Anna does not come forward.

In order to let everyone get used to his rule, he continued to speak before El could answer.

"The content is that I, Lornfast, want to expel him as a traitor for the future of the North."

It was a simple sentence, but El understood two meanings.

Firstly, he had no right to refuse at all, and secondly, his mission was not so much to issue a challenge as to anger John.

It directly defines John as a traitor, if he really talks to Baron Carter so straightforwardly.

Ordinary minor nobles would most likely be killed on the spot.

For example, Lorne's lackeys, such as Steve and Earl Dean Charles, would be publicly executed by John for any reason.

There is only El, the second son of Marquis Marco who is forced to cooperate with Lorne.

John may be concerned about El's identity and not take action on him.

Lorne had high hopes for El, and after El left, he could reorganize the people in the Marco family.

They had already left the grassland, and it was impossible to waste any more time on breaking them up during the march.

So Lorne's purpose is very simple, that is, he wants the Marco family to be the pioneer.

This was also the condition that Marquis Marco agreed to him at the beginning.

Lorne, who was still minding his own business, continued to make arrangements without waiting for El to take orders: "Baron El can also go ahead and let the deceived lords know who is the right one."

You are our real enemy in the north, and I will have your troops follow closely behind you.

They will work with the Baker family and the Charles family to protect your safety.

Until you complete the task, the armies of the three families will be temporarily under the charge of Earl Charles. " The three most powerful and relatively independent armies on their side were simply sent to the vanguard position.

Although the Baker family and the Marco family suffered some losses in manpower, their combined number was tens of thousands.

Such a powerful vanguard force, if used well, might be able to defeat John directly.

Dean thought he had gotten a good job, and as soon as Lorne finished speaking, he immediately showed his attitude.

"Thank you for your trust.

I, Dean Charles, will definitely live up to your expectations and help you and Miss Anna eliminate the traitors in the north."

A majestic earl actually called his lord to a baron who was several ranks below him.

El is very ashamed of Dean's behavior, but looking around, who are the people here who can gain his respect?

Steve who killed his father and brother, or Bishop Sophia who had an affair with Lorne:
