The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife.

Chapter 137 Devastated!

Frostwolf Ridge, meeting room.

All the lords of the North have gathered.

Since we want to capture the East Territory, relying solely on Frostwolf Ridge is naturally not enough.

These lords in the field have also signed allegiance contracts, so David can use them with confidence and let these lords help him expand his territory.

"Attack the East Territory!"

David had not arrived yet.

The lords were whispering and exchanging opinions with each other.

The land of the East Territory is considered rich among the four territories.

In particular, the Eastern Territory is backed by the Shiling Mountains, and the endless mountains contain a large amount of resources.

Especially in terms of mineral resources, three quarters of the entire Silver Moon Kingdom's iron ore, gold ore, crystal, etc. come from Shiling Mountain.

Those riches also hold great temptation to these lords!
Of course, they also have to consider the risks.

Although there are no sixth-level knights in the East Territory, it is not an easy task to conquer such a large area.

As long as the Silver Moon Kingdom is given a chance, the kingdom's army will definitely support the East Territory, and the Duke of the West Territory can directly point his sword at the North, and then they will be attacked from both sides.

"Let's wait for the Duke to arrive."

"I believe His Excellency the Duke must have a plan."

The Lord of Beiyuan City spoke in a deep voice.

Not long after he finished speaking, the door of the conference room opened.

David came in with Irene and Luen.

The lords in the field quickly stood up and saluted, then set their eyes on the unfamiliar Erin and Luen, with confusion on their faces.

But some of the nobles had already recognized the two men. They suddenly opened their eyes slowly, with expressions of astonishment and disbelief in their eyes.

"Princess Silver Dragon!" a noble murmured in his heart.

In today's Silver Moon Kingdom, the only one who is qualified to be called the Silver Dragon Princess is the princess left by the eldest prince. She is also the only princess after the birth of the new king.

In addition, some people also recognized Luen, the flower of the East, the daughter of the Duke of the East, and the eldest daughter of the Mountain Rock Lion Family!

The Silver Dragon Princess and the Duke's daughter have been missing since the Duke of the East and the eldest prince were defeated. No one would have thought that they would appear here!

Moreover, the Silver Dragon Princess and the Duke's daughter actually entered the meeting hall at the same time holding the Frostwolf Duke's hands, which undoubtedly gave everyone a great shock!

They all knew that the lord they served was fond of women, and many nobles had given women to them.

But they didn't expect that the Silver Dragon Princess and the daughter of the Duke of East Territory would both be accepted by the Duke of Frostwolf. Thinking about it, they all showed envious expressions.

The Silver Dragon Princess and the Duke of East's daughter are the flowers of the Imperial Capital and the East respectively, and they are top beauties in the entire Silver Moon Kingdom!
Besides that, the wives of the Duke of Frostwolf are all beauties. The Duke of Frostwolf is indeed very lucky!

"Get up." David said in a deep voice.

He sat down at the main seat in the council chamber, with Irene and Luen standing on either side of him.

The other lords then took their seats.

David's purpose was to announce the identities of Irene and Luen.

Then he announced that Bronco had persecuted the Duke and the eldest prince of the East in order to ascend the throne, and announced that he would help the Mountain Rock Lion Family to retake the East!
Compared to directly conquering the East Territory, using the Silver Dragon Princess and the Duke's Daughter as an excuse is indeed more reasonable and more acceptable to the nobles in the East Territory.

Of course, this means that the Duke of Frostwolf stands on the side of the eldest prince and does not recognize the throne of the new king, which is equivalent to breaking off relations with the Silvermoon Kingdom!

"As you command, Your Excellency the Duke."

The lords in the field responded one after another.

Even if they had many guesses in their minds, they dared not express them.

The loyalty pact has already stipulated their obligation to send troops. In this case, even if they die on the battlefield, they must follow the lord's footsteps!
Afterwards, these lords went back to prepare for war.

David had no intention of taking these nobles to attack the East.

He just asked these nobles to defend the north and prepare to resist the kingdom's army and the Duke of the West's knights.

During this process, he had already led the Frostwolf Knights directly to the East!
With the loyalty contract in place, these lords simply could not betray him and spread the news.

By the time the nobles in the East and other places reacted, David had already arrived at the border of the East with the Frostwolf Knights!
This time he brought all the wolf cavalry.

Hundreds of phantom wolves and nearly a thousand gray wolves have already formed the strongest knight group!
Raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a while.

Now it is this force that relies on the resources of the entire North.

Now it's time for the Knights Templar, which was established with the help of the witch's power, to truly demonstrate their value.

In front of these wolf riders was a galloping Devil Tyrannosaurus Rex.

David sat on the Devilsaur's head and hugged Luen.

It only took one day for the Frostwolf Knights to reach the border of the East.

On the sentry tower at the eastern border.

The patrolling soldiers were all stunned when they saw the Devil's Tyrannosaurus Rex that was a head taller than the city wall.

Then, they saw the wolf riders behind the Devil's Dragon and finally reacted.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

The alarm on the city wall quickly spread throughout Donglin City.

fortunately.

Donglin City itself exists to block the North.

After conquering the East Territory, Bronco dispatched heavy troops to guard Donglin City.

Hearing the horn, the defenders in Donglin City immediately took action, and the commander of Donglin City also came to the city wall.

As he looked at the mountain-like Devil Tyrannosaurus, his expression became extremely solemn.

This huge monster is definitely a powerful weapon for siege. He can sense the power of this monster.

But when he saw the ghost wolf beasts and wolf cavalry, the astonishment on his face turned into shock, and his expression changed completely.

"Wolf Riders!"

"The Wolf Riders of the Frostwolf Knights!"

He immediately knew why the enemy had arrived here so quickly.

The Frostwolf Knights actually tamed such a large number of Phantom Wolves and Gray Wolves!
David sat on the head of the Devil Tyrannosaurus Rex and looked down at Donglin City.

He smiled slightly, with no intention of stopping, and directly ordered the Devil's Tyrannosaurus to speed up.

Now the entire Donglin City is not fully prepared for battle.

As long as we rush into this city, we can quickly open the gateway to the east!
Ho ho ho——

The Devilsaur took the lead.

Those arrows that shot out were simply unable to break through the scales of the Devil's Tyrannosaurus Rex!

The figure of the Devil's Tyrannosaurus quickly rushed to the city gate, and then its entire body crashed directly into it!

boom!
The entire city wall trembled suddenly.

The next moment, as the Devil's Tyrannosaurus Rex swung its sharp claws, it actually smashed the city wall directly!
The soldiers guarding the city looked at this scene with horror on their faces.

They felt an extremely terrifying aura from this terrifying giant beast, which made them unable to muster up the slightest ability to resist!
The commander of Donglin City looked at this scene with a look of despair on his face.

He could feel that this terrifying giant beast was emitting an aura that made him feel suppressed.

Sixth level monster!

This is definitely a genuine sixth-level monster.

Then, his eyes fell on David who was standing on top of the Devil Tyrannosaurus.

He also recognized that this was the Duke of Frostwolf.

A bitter smile appeared on his face.

With the Duke of Frostwolf and this sixth-level magical beast, the city walls are simply unable to stop them.

Not to mention the huge number of wolf cavalry.

Even if there are only a thousand of them, combined with this sixth-level monster and the Duke of Frostwolf, they are enough to destroy an army of tens of thousands!
Boom boom boom——

The city gate was demolished by the Devil's Tyrannosaurus Rex with his bare hands.

Afterwards, the Devil's Tyrannosaurus Rex stepped into Donglin City with its huge body, and with just a sweep of its tail, it swept the surrounding soldiers away!
It wasn't until several generals with condensed fighting spirit stepped forward to resist that they were able to slightly hold back the Devil Tyrannosaurus Rex's pace.

But that was all. The Devil Tyrannosaurus was completely transformed into a war machine. Even the combined efforts of many generals were no match for it!
hoo hoo hoo!
A roar came from the Devil's mouth.

The next moment, demonic flames condensed in its mouth and spewed out as blazing flames!

The soldiers were instantly engulfed by the flames, and then the flames engulfed the surrounding buildings!
"No, this monster is too strong."

The soldiers around looked at the rampaging Devil Tyrannosaurus Rex with despair on their faces.

Their attacks were completely unable to break the monster's defense, but the monster's random attacks could sweep across an area, making it impossible to resist!

David had also locked onto the commander at this time.

When the Devil's Tyrannosaurus rushed into the crowd, he jumped off the Devil's Tyrannosaurus and rushed towards the commander.

The surrounding soldiers immediately stood in front of them.

But David launched a full-strength attack, directly blowing all the soldiers away!
Click click click——

The icy power condensed in his body and turned into a road leading to the commander!

When the commander faced the Frostwolf Duke directly, he felt a terrifying pressure pressing down on himself, and he felt a chill all over his body.

He had never felt this kind of feeling even when facing the Duke of East Territory, which made him realize that the Duke of Frostwolf was far stronger than the Duke of East Territory!

David cleared all obstacles in an instant and appeared in front of the commander.

The guards around the commander were about to rush up when they saw this, but David just raised his hand, and the power of ice froze the guards!
"Submit, or die."

David looked at the commander in front of him calmly.

The commander gripped the knight sword tightly in his hand, and powerful force burst out!
But facing the sword that he swung with all his strength, David simply stretched out his hand and clamped the long sword that contained terrifying fighting spirit with two fingers.

This scene was so shocking that the soldiers around stared at it blankly, and the breath in their bodies instantly dissipated.

The commander was also filled with a sense of powerlessness at this time.

The fighting spirit in his body was still being activated, but it was unable to shake the opponent at all.

After David exerted a little force, a crisp breaking sound was heard, and he actually broke the sword!

The commander took two steps back and rushed forward again.

David casually grabbed the commander's neck and lifted him up. The terrifying force made the commander completely unable to resist!

The generals and soldiers around looked at this scene and didn't dare to get close at all. Sometimes when the strength reaches a certain level, the number of people is meaningless!

"Your commander has been captured."

"If you don't want him to die, put down your weapons!"

"If you lay down your weapons, I can promise to spare your life!"

David spoke in a deep voice, and his voice spread far and wide, covering the entire battlefield, causing the soldiers on the field to stagnate.

When they looked over, they saw the figure of Duke Frostwolf standing on top of the huge Tyrannosaurus Rex, holding the commander who was struggling desperately in his hands!

The generals and soldiers who had witnessed the Frostwolf Duke's actions were the first to surrender. They all knew that it was meaningless to continue resisting.

Seeing this, the knights of the Frostwolf Knights began to shout on the battlefield, their leader had been captured and the battle was over!

When David saw that these people had surrendered, he immediately ordered the Frostwolf Knights to detain those generals, while he let the Devil's Dragon enter the city.

The mayor of Donglin City and those officials were looking at this scene with horror on their faces. Since the King's Army occupied this place, they had already taken control of the city, and now the King's Army was defeated in an instant!

Duke Frostwolf!

The Frostwolf Duke from the North has actually attacked here!

"Uncle Sandy, I'm back."

At this moment, the black air surrounding the Devil Tyrannosaurus dissipated, and Luen stepped forward.

She looked at the Lord of Donglin City opposite her and suddenly spoke.

"Ms. Luen!"

Looking at Luen, all the officials present were stunned.

They had not expected that the missing Duke's daughter would appear here, and seemed to be very close to the Duke of Frostwolf.

Upon seeing this, the Lord of Donglin City hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on one knee: "Lord of Donglin City, I greet the Duke and meet Miss Lu En."

The situation is now very clear. Whether the Lord of Donglin City is sincere or not, choosing to surrender is the best outcome.

"Get up."

David carried the commander down from the Devil's Dragon.

At this time, the commander was breathing out more than breathing in, and the fear of death made him choose to beg for mercy. David immediately asked the commander to swear allegiance.

Looking at the loyalty contract in front of him, the commander showed bitterness on his face. He did not know the effect of the Book of Contract, but for a general of the Silver Moon Kingdom Army, swearing allegiance already represented a betrayal of the Silver Moon Kingdom.

But he had no choice but to swear allegiance in front of everyone.

"I accept your allegiance."

David felt the change in the heart of the contract and the corners of his mouth curled up.

At this moment, the commander also felt the vague connection between himself and the Frostwolf Duke in front of him, and his expression changed slightly.

"Call all the generals here." he said.

After the commander left with a deathly pale face, David led the officials back to the City Hall, and naturally, there was another loyalty meeting that followed.

These officials looked at each other in bewilderment, but still chose to pledge allegiance.

David heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. With the loyalty contract in place, he didn't need to engage in intrigue. All he had to do next was to get the generals of the kingdom's army to choose to pledge allegiance, and he would be able to completely control Donglin City!

His control is complete and total, and there is no chance of rebellion at all. This is the power of the extraordinary force of the Heart of the Contract!
Of course, it would also take a lot of time to get all the generals to swear allegiance and then eliminate the rebels who were unwilling to do so.

During this process, the news of Donglin City had also spread.

In an instant, the entire Silver Moon Kingdom shook!
……

Silver Moon Kingdom.

Bronco never expected that the Frostwolf Duke would take the initiative to attack.

In just one day, they successfully captured Donglin City!

"Damn, damn, damn!"

Bronco continued to roar in anger.

Duke Frostwolf's actions were a naked provocation to him!

Moreover, the daughter of the Duke of East, the flower of East that he had coveted for a long time, actually appeared beside the Duke of Frostwolf, making his face a little distorted.

He must fight back fiercely!

The Frostwolf Duke will surely perish along with the Frostwolf Family!
Following his order, the commander of the kingdom's army led the troops to advance towards the East, intending to stop the Duke of Frostwolf in the East!
The Duke of the West also began to attack the North according to the agreed plan, heading straight for the Frostwolf Ridge in the northwest, intending to attack the Frostwolf Duke's lair!

This battle seemed to be a foregone conclusion for everyone. As long as the Duke of Frostwolf was blocked in the East, no one could contend against the Duke of the West!
……

Beiyuan Castle.

This is one of the cities closest to the West.

At this time, the coalition forces of the Duke of the West were already at the gates of the city.

After receiving the news, Yilin stood up and it was her turn to appear next.

The leader of the Knights of the West was shouting in front of the battle line, saying that Duke Frostwolf's conquest of the East was the initiative to provoke the war between the kingdoms, and that they were the rebels of the Silvermoon Kingdom, and that all the nobles in the North were firmly opposed to Duke Frostwolf and so on.

But the next moment, the figure of the Silver Dragon Princess appeared on the city wall and began to spread the news that the second prince Bronco killed the old king for the throne and also slaughtered his brothers.

Under the city wall, the eyes of the Duke of the West and those knights suddenly focused. They had never expected that the missing Silver Dragon Princess would appear here!
Erin's voice still resounded throughout the battlefield like a huge bell.

"The second prince Blanco was treacherous. In order to seize the throne, he not only killed our old king, but also brutally killed his own brother. The soldiers under his command did not protect the country and the people, but fought for his own selfish desires!"

As she finished her words, all the soldiers in Beiyuan City were stunned.

Irene continued, "Duke Frostwolf is not a rebel. He is only fighting to expose this regicide and treason. We stand on the side of justice to bring the real criminal to justice and put Bronco on trial!"

Her words sparked a heated discussion, and the morale of the Beiyuan defenders on the city wall was boosted. They raised their weapons and shouted in support of Duke Frostwolf and Princess Silver Dragon.

The Western Alliance camp also began to waver.

The Duke of the Western Territory snorted when he saw this: "The eldest prince's rebellion is already a fact. The nobles of the entire Silver Moon Kingdom have already come to the conclusion of this."

"And you are naturally no longer the princess of the Silver Moon Kingdom. Now all knights listen to my orders, attack Beiyuan City and strangle all the rebels!"

He didn't want to drag it out at all. Relying on his sixth-level strength and the Western Alliance, he was confident that he could easily capture the North without the Frostwolf Duke.

But just as he finished speaking and the Western Alliance was at its peak, a figure suddenly appeared on the top of the wall.

This figure was wearing silver dragon armor. Although there was no expression on his face and he didn't say a word, a terrifying aura suddenly emanated from him!

"Silver Dragon Armor!"

Seeing this figure, whether it was the Duke of the Western Territory or the nobles and generals of Beiyuan City, they were all startled, and then their eyes widened in disbelief!

The Silver Dragon Armor has always been controlled by the Silver Dragon Guardian clan. Could it be that the one in front of him is actually a Silver Dragon Guardian? !
And now this Silver Dragon Guardian is standing in front of the Silver Dragon Princess. Does this mean that the Silver Dragon Princess' words are supported by the Silver Dragon Guardian?

So, Bronco actually killed the old king and then killed his own brother, so he had the chance to become the new king of the Silver Moon Kingdom?

This news is a little bit hard to believe, but the appearance of the Silver Dragon Guardian at this time seems to say that everything is true!
At this moment, with the appearance of the Silver Dragon Guard, the Silver Dragon Princess actually stood on the moral high ground, as if she was the real king of the Silver Moon Kingdom!
"It's really you!"

The Duke of the Western Territory also suddenly widened his eyes at this moment.

If the appearance of the Silver Dragon Princess only surprised him, the appearance of the Silver Dragon Guard now really made his heart begin to stir.

He recognized that the silver dragon guard in front of him was the guardian who had always been guarding His Majesty Bronco. The silver dragon armor and powerful sixth-level aura could not be fake.

but why?
Why would the Silver Dragon Guard choose to betray His Majesty Blanco?
Did he really know that it was His Majesty Blanco who killed the old king?

At this moment, countless thoughts appeared in his mind, and finally all turned into terrifying murderous intent. He must kill the silver dragon guard in front of him at all costs!

Otherwise, if those neutral nobles really knew that the Silver Dragon Princess was recognized by the Silver Dragon Guards, the situation would become extremely unfavorable!
The next moment, he activated the Wind Eagle bloodline in his body, and green cyclones appeared all over his body, and his fighting spirit power exploded completely!
The Silver Dragon Guard felt the powerful fighting spirit released by the Duke of the Western Territory, but there was no fear on his face.

He slowly drew out the long sword at his waist. The sword flashed silver light under the sunlight, like a cold sharp blade.

"Duke, you are wrong."

The Silver Dragon Guard said coldly.

"I did not betray Bronco, but chose justice. Bronco murdered the king and seized the throne. His crime is unforgivable. He is not worthy of being our king."

These were the words David had taught the Silver Dragon Guard in advance, and when he spoke them now in conjunction with the powerful energy fluctuations on his body, it was quite impressive!

Erin breathed a sigh of relief as she watched this scene.

She took a deep breath and ordered loudly: "Everyone, get ready! We will never surrender! Drive out the Western Alliance Army. We must protect the North!"

The defenders on the Beiyuan city wall responded in unison, their weapons tightly grasped and their eyes sparkling.

At this moment, they were no longer just passively defending, but were full of passionate fighting spirit.

The Duke of the Western Territory was now completely overwhelmed by rage and murderous intent. He suddenly rushed towards the Silver Dragon Guards, as fast as a blue lightning.

However, the Silver Dragon Guard quickly took up the fight, countering it with powerful force, and the two exchanged several moves in an instant, each blow shaking the surrounding air.

"You asked for this!"

The Duke of the Western Territory roared, and the blood of the Wind Eagle in his body boiled even more. An extremely sharp wind blade slashed towards the Silver Dragon Guard.

However, just as the wind blade was about to slash at the Silver Dragon Armor, it was actually blocked directly and was unable to break through the defense of the Silver Dragon Armor!
The Silver Dragon Guard used the Silver Dragon Armor to resist the attack, and at the same time, he stabbed out the sword with lightning speed, aiming at the vital point of the Duke of the Western Territory.

The fight between the two attracted everyone's attention. For a moment, both the soldiers on the Beiyuan city wall and the coalition forces outside the city were shocked by them.

Relying on the Silver Dragon Armor, the Silver Dragon Guards actually had a slight upper hand, but the Duke of the Western Territory possessed the bloodline of the Swift Eagle and his own speed was very fast, causing the Silver Dragon Guards' attacks to keep missing!

The Duke of the West had a gloomy expression on his face. He discovered that His Majesty Blanco still had a trick up his sleeve. The Silver Dragon Guards were even more powerful than he had imagined!

But such a powerful Silver Dragon Guard actually rebelled against His Majesty Bronco. This was definitely a heavy blow to Bronco!

There was an unwillingness on his face, but he still found a way to escape the attack of the Silver Dragon Guards. After looking at the Silver Dragon Princess on the city wall, he retreated helplessly.

As the Duke of the West retreated, the retreat horn sounded at the same time, and the Western Alliance Army began to retreat. They were originally the vanguard team, and they originally wanted to use the Duke of the West as the spearhead to quickly attack the north.

However, the appearance of the Silver Dragon Guards completely shattered the Duke of the West's plan. He could only retreat back to the West and wait for subsequent reinforcements.

The knights on the city wall were immediately shocked when they saw this, and then they acted quickly, carrying defensive equipment such as bows and arrows, rolling stones, boiling oil, etc. onto the city wall, and at the same time strengthening various fortifications. They knew that the battle was far from over.

Irene calmly commanded the troops. She knew that this war was not only about the North, but also about the future of the entire Silvermoon Kingdom.

……

The battle in the north reached a stalemate.

At the same time, the news here also spread to the Silver Moon Kingdom.

Especially under David's instructions, the messenger pet turned the battle on the front line back and then handed it over to the thugs in the city who were like gutter rats to spread the news.

Before long, the civilians of the Silver Moon Kingdom heard about the war in the north.

At the same time, they also heard the news of the appearance of the Silver Dragon Princess, and also learned about what the Silver Dragon Princess said about Blanco's murder of the king and seizure of the throne.

Originally, they were a little skeptical.

But after hearing that the Silver Dragon Princess had appeared and was recognized by the Silver Dragon Guards, they suddenly felt a little confused.

By the time the lords in the city learned about it and wanted to stop it, the news had already spread and almost the entire city knew about it!
This was the announcement of the public opinion war. David had started planning it long ago, relying on the information dissemination capabilities of the messenger pet to spread the news quickly.

Since everything he said was true, it was very difficult for the lord to refute it, and many nobles who were originally neutral also fell into deep thought.

……

Silver Moon Kingdom, inside the palace.

Bronco naturally also received news from the front line.

When he learned that the Silver Dragon Guard had defected to the Silver Dragon Princess, he was completely stunned, with disbelief in his eyes.

In fact, he had already suspected that the Silver Dragon Guard had met with an accident, but he never expected that the Silver Dragon Guard was still alive and had joined a new master!
This was totally unacceptable to him. After he realized what was happening, he instantly flew into a rage and smashed everything in the room to pieces!
"Duke Frostwolf, Princess Silver Dragon, I will not let you go, I will never let you go!" Bronco's voice was hysterical!

……

Donglin City, City Lord’s Mansion.

David breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the news.

Thus, half of his plan was completed.

Irene had already resisted the Duke of the Western Territory, and then spread the information he wanted to spread. A public opinion war was quietly going on.

In his previous life, he knew very well the power of public opinion warfare, and he could even win without losing a single soldier!
"Great."

Luen heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

It is actually safest for her to stay with the Duke.

In comparison, Her Royal Highness the Princess guarding the North is much more dangerous.

"Ah."

"The plan was successful. I will be able to help you take back the East Territory soon."

Seeing this, Lu En was touched and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency the Duke."

"Ok?"

David narrowed his eyes.

Luen understood the meaning immediately, but did not refuse.

……

Somewhere underground in the East.

In one room, there was a huge long table.

The candles on the long table illuminated the room, making it look a little eerie.

Around the long table, there were several figures sitting. Low voices kept ringing in the room, and all of them looked thoughtful and serious.
