After I died, my personal maid rebelled.

The beginning is always the hardest. After gaining the initial support of the residents, Luna quickly led them to visit the remaining nobles.

The nobles extended the warmest welcome to the young lady, speaking from the bottom of their hearts and promising to do anything for her.

After collecting all the food and other supplies and distributing some money to the people, Luna had them dig a large pit in the courtyard so that the deceased who had suffered evil could be laid to rest.

After finishing all this, as dusk approached, the cavalrymen set up camp in the square and began preparing dinner.

The night was quiet. Luna simply took back the weapons of some of the young men who were unwilling to join the army and sent them home.

Five or six hundred more people expressed their willingness to stay and help the young lady defend the city.

Luna...

I have received your loyalty, but in reality, if I lead my cavalry to charge a few times, those earls' armies will collapse on the spot.

The reason for taking such a long and roundabout route was simply to save the lives of those few thousand peasant soldiers.

The nobles are like toads crawling on your feet—they don't bite, but they're annoying.

Ultimately, their discontent led them to create this bizarre and incongruous noble war.

The Duke's new land system has shaken the foundation of their rule. In the eyes of the nobles, it would be best to take all the land under their own name, then let the common people pay rent to cultivate it, and then pay taxes on the harvested grain. They don't even need to move their butts, and they can eat from both ends and make a profit.

The ideal scenario is that ordinary people are always hungry and have to borrow grain from these great philanthropists every year. Generations of people work for them, yet they can never repay their kindness.

Oswald said, "I have studied this chapter, and I understand it."

All the land belongs to me, and then I distribute it equally, renting it out to ordinary people to cultivate for free, and finally continue to reduce taxes—perfect!

Luna wholeheartedly supported her brother's governance policies. In fact, to learn faster, she even made up a rhyme while taking notes.

Military nobles split their wealth 30/70, commercial nobles hang streetlights, and agricultural nobles smash their manhood.

As for the nobles in the western pastoral areas, the elder brother seemed to feel sorry for these herdsmen leaders who lived by following the water and grass. It is said that each of them had a large callus on their buttocks...

So Luna thought about it carefully for a while, and the first thing she did after taking in the militia was to explain the Duke's land policy to them, so that they would at least understand what this war was all about.

"Can we live like them?"

After hearing this, the militiamen holding their bowls suddenly found the meat soup unappetizing. These nobles were truly despicable; they had almost made them miss out on a fortune.

Sitting around the fire, Luna blinked, took a sip of soup with a spoon, and asked, "Who...who are they?"

"Who else could it be but the people from the Marquisate? Hmph, they come here to show off for no reason. With so much land, they'd be exhausted from farming it all."

"Exactly! I don't know what they're pretending for. So what if their marquis died first? Now we can kill our own nobles too!"

The old marquis, he doesn't seem to be dead yet...

"Alright, alright." Luna was amused by their sour grapes attitude. "From now on, all land in the Northern Territory will be allocated according to this policy. If there isn't enough land, you can move to the area around Kuogu City. Large-scale reclamation is underway there, and the land is free as long as you're willing to farm."

"Um, sir, could I continue serving in the army in the future?"

A faint voice came from behind. Luna looked over and saw that it was the young man who had been the first to slash at the nobleman's corpse during the day.

"you?"

Luna sized up the man for a while. He was not only thin, but also somewhat dull in personality. However, there seemed to be something burning in his eyes as he looked at the fire.

Just as Luna was about to say something, subtly reminding him that he wasn't suited for military service, she was stunned by his next words.

That's my mother's skin.

The night breeze is as gentle as a cradle of the past, humming a forgotten lullaby.

Luna hesitated for a long time before finally nodding and asking hesitantly, "What's your name?"

"I have no name."

"Alright... Many of my personal guards don't even have names."

The next morning, in the bright sunshine of the fields, a scruffy-bearded Jim rushed into Jacob's tent, shouting excitedly.

"Sir, sir! They've withdrawn their troops!"

"call!"

Jacob breathed a sigh of relief. Heaven knows how worried he was. As expected, the young lady was reliable and must have completed the task excellently.

"They must have received the news and gone back to rescue Xiye City. They immediately ordered their troops to break camp. We chased after them, keeping close at hand, so they couldn't advance or retreat."

"Yes, sir."

The army marched forward, and the two armies quickly engaged in a chase across the plains. Both sides were predominantly infantry, so their marching speed was naturally slow.

One side was focused on speeding towards Xiye City, while the other side didn't launch an attack. They just stayed close behind, clearly indicating that they were fighting a war, but if you didn't know better, you'd think they were running a marathon.

After running from dawn to dusk, and then from day to night, both sides were exhausted and stopped to rest almost simultaneously, each starting a fire to cook, and ignoring the other.

"What the hell are these bastards trying to do?"

The young Earl Terdo, gazing at the distant camp, could no longer care about his aristocratic manners and couldn't help but utter a curse.

They neither fight nor retreat; this is not war, it's just an attempt to disgust people!

"It's clear they don't want a decisive battle with us," Countess Christa calmly analyzed. "Among the previous reinforcements, there was no sign of Miss Luna. I believe she must have led a small number of elite troops to secretly bypass the main force and attack Fineleaf City, intending to cut off our retreat."

"Actually, this is also an opportunity for us. If we take back Fineleaf City and capture the young lady inside, then the Duke will never dare to do anything to us again."

"Hmm... okay!"

Terdo clenched his fist. After many days of fighting, the fighting strength of his peasant army was gradually increasing. As long as they achieved a great victory, the army would be completely transformed.

Moreover, Luna Charles—what a huge bargaining chip! Oswald actually put his own sister on the gambling table; well, don't blame him for being ruthless.

"Judging from her past actions, Miss Luna is impulsive and not as shrewd as the Duke. Tomorrow, we'll provoke her in front of the enemy lines, lure her into battle, and then have Groot launch a surprise magical attack..."

Seeing that Christa already had a plan, Terdo was overjoyed. "Good, I'll personally go and lure her tomorrow!"

After a night of rest, the two armies finally arrived outside Xiye City at daybreak.

Having arranged for the defense of his private army behind him, Terdo confidently led his armored elite troops out on horseback, whipping his horse as he rode to the city walls.

The gates of Xiye City were tightly shut, and the heavily armored cavalrymen stood on the city walls, their bows hanging down, vigilantly searching for their first target.

Luna leaned against the battlements, lazily yawned, observed the enemy's formation for a while, then turned to the soldiers beside her and gave instructions.

"When the peasants attack the city later, be careful. Those wearing armor are the nobles' confidants, so you can kill them directly. As for the others, try to let them climb up before capturing them."

Before the words were even finished, Terdo shouted from below the city walls, "Luna, you disgrace to the Charles family! With your meager abilities, you dare to participate in the noble war? Aren't you afraid of disgracing your brother? Go home and drink your milk!"

"Is he... insulting me?"

Luna was instantly wide awake. "So, you want to fight me one-on-one, huh? I've been waiting for you!"

Here's a joke: she's the least talented one in our family. As for what family, don't ask.

She became interested and, clasping her hands, loudly replied, "So you're that Terdo who shares a lover with your own father? Do you know that the person who breastfed you and raised you was your father's lover? All these years have passed, is her milk supply still plentiful? Are you still satisfied with what you drink every day?"

These words shocked everyone present.

The female soldier's eyes blazed with anger as she surveyed her surroundings. "Who! Who has corrupted our young lady?! Get out here right now!"

The adjutant scratched his head, thinking, "Why does this sound like the truth? The smooth tone doesn't sound like something the young lady just made up."

Terdo was also shocked. Could it be... really? No, what am I thinking!

"You, you dare to slander me, you ill-mannered bastard."

Luna chuckled. "There's one more thing. The one who defiled your fiancée back then was your father! Terdo, don't overthink it, please don't overthink it. Your father-in-law knows about it; they're all doing it for your own good!"

Like a bolt from the blue, memories flooded back: his wife's forced smile, his father's sudden concern, his father-in-law personally filling his glass with wine...

One sentence revealed the whole truth, and Terdo's eyes widened in fury, his face instantly turning red. "You son of a bitch, Luna! I'll fucking kill you, you're a fucking bastard! If you've got the guts, come down here and fight me one-on-one!"

Seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Christa quickly went out to try to lure Terdo away. They had the advantage in numbers, and even if they couldn't lure Luna out, they could attack the city directly. But they must not lose their minds.

"And you, Christa, you're no better. Don't think I don't know, you tried to sleep with my father back then, but I was too young, otherwise, I would have sent you to your grave with a single sword stroke!"

"You shameless slut, you must have plenty of old men locked up at home for your amusement!"

Luna took a deep breath and raised her voice, "Soldiers of Earl Christa's territory below the city, listen up! If your father suddenly goes missing, don't doubt it, he's been captured by Christa and made a male slave!"

"She's a pervert, a pervert who likes old men!"

……

Now everyone on both sides fell silent. They knew the nobles were cunning, but they didn't expect them to be this cunning. Are there any normal people left in this world?

"Ah!!! Father!"

For some reason, or rather, everyone knew but didn't want to face it, a commotion suddenly broke out in the enemy camp. A soldier threw down his weapon, broke away from the ranks in tears, and ran wildly into the distance like a madman.

As Terdo's gaze gradually calmed and became more meaningful, Christa lowered his sinister eyes, gritting his teeth in anger.

She made up her mind: if Luna appeared before her, she would tear Luna to pieces...

???

With a creak, the city gates of Xiye City swung open. Luna, wielding a long spear, leaped out on her white horse and arrived before the two in the blink of an eye. Behind her, her adjutant and female soldier rode out of the city in unison, cautiously observing their surroundings.

"Be careful!"

Seeing the long spear thrusting towards Christa with unstoppable force, Terdo hurriedly raised his spear to parry. With a bang, sparks flew everywhere, and the wind blades wrapped around the spear burst out in an instant, shredding Terdo's fingers.

Terdo fell backward in pain, and two more armored soldiers charged out from the left and right. Luna's cold eyes swept over them, and with a long spear in her hand, she stirred up the dust and, with a speed that seemed extremely slow but was actually like a frozen leap, instantly cleaved the armored soldiers in two, armor and all.

Turning around, he thrust with the tip of his spear, his breath moving in a folded, connected motion, as if a wind blade carrying blood spurted out, piercing the neck of another armored soldier.

So strong!

Christa was shocked, not expecting Luna to be so powerful. She drew the whip blades wrapped around her body and shouted urgently, "Groot, attack!"

Boom! The earth trembled, and Luna quickly tightened the reins. Sharp stone pillars shot out of the ground, and the warhorses, unable to avoid them, were thrown back and let out a pitiful neigh.

With a clang, Luna landed lightly. She threw down her long spear, drew her slender sword from her waist, and moved nimbly through the stone pillar forest, the blade of her sword swirling in the wind, creating countless sword flowers.

The stone pillars around her shattered one after another, and even though the pillars grew faster and faster, they couldn't stop Luna's progress for even a moment.

Christa rallied the remaining armored soldiers to charge out, but the next second Luna suddenly stopped, her center of gravity slightly lowering.

An invisible wind path suddenly formed, and Luna drew her sword, taking a step forward, the blade splattering blood on the ground.

The intense wind pressure dissipated. In front of him, Terdo, who was fleeing, was decapitated. Behind him, the armored soldiers and Christa were shattered into countless pieces under the layers of explosive killing, and blood gushed out.

Even in the instant of his death, Christa remained in a posture ready to launch an attack, with only a trace of fear showing in his shattered eyes.

shhhhhh!

Luna turned around and saw the knights unleashing a volley of arrows, giving the mage a barrage of firepower. The dense barrage of arrows turned the mage into a pincushion, successfully achieving the feat of having 70 kilograms of arrowheads inside a 60-kilogram body.

She smiled brightly, walked up to the terrified peasant army, raised her sword, and shouted loudly.

"I am Luna Charles! Lay down your weapons and surrender immediately!"
