Start as Inherited Baroness

"If there is no reply within two hours, we will attack!" Airey roared.

The camp was still very quiet, and no sound was heard.

Simon was not in a hurry. Although Baron Hela's camp looked rough, it was not a heavy infantry that could kick down the outer wall with a few kicks.

"Airey, go make some siege equipment to reduce casualties."

"Yes!" Airey responded and took more than 30 soldiers of the guards to cut down trees.

It was impossible to make any decent engineering equipment in this time, but it was no problem to make a battering ram and some baffle wooden carts.

This kind of battering ram has a protective cover on top, which can resist the shooting of bows and arrows, but it can be broken by fire.

But in this situation, it is not easy to set fire. Ordinary oil does not burn so quickly, and Baron Hela's subordinates are basically impossible to have a magician.

In this way, more than an hour later, Simon and others had dismounted and took some black bread from the sacks around their waists to eat with water.

And he took out a lot of black beans from the sacks on the horses and fed them to the horses.

The soldiers looked grim and checked their weapons.

As time passed, the ultimatum was approaching, and it seemed that this battle was inevitable.

"Baron, the battering ram is ready." Ai Lei reported to Simon with sweat on his face.

"Okay, let's take a break."

They cut down dozens of trees, sawed and tied them, and made two simple battering rams, each operated by ten people.

It was enough to deal with the wooden fortress built by Baron Hela.

"What should we do? They built that kind of thing!"

Baron Hela on the sentry tower trembled, and at this time, he was also sweating all over his face, which was caused by fear.

"Sir, I have an idea. Do you think it's feasible?

Why don't you marry the Baron of Yongyi? He is so young and probably has no daughter, but there are always female members in their family.

It's best not to be picky at this time. The Viscount of Maple Leaf in the North Wind Land is far away and can't quench your thirst."

Roth, who was wearing a black robe, suggested again.

Baron Hela hesitated and said, "What if he doesn't want to?"

"You can canonize a member of the Baron of Yongyi's family as a feudal knight. I don't think he will be unwilling.

In this way, we can be regarded as having a strong backer and are not afraid of being bullied by others again."

Roth rolled his eyes and grinned.

The family members of Baron Hela heard the words and were moved. They were all civilians before and had little knowledge. Many people thought this was a good thing.

"This should be possible. If we become a family, the Baron of Yongyi will not be so excessive."

"Yes, yes..."

They all expressed their opinions in a low voice.

"Okay, let's do it, Roth. I'll leave this to you. Don't let me down!"

Baron Hela also made up his mind. He raised his hand and gently hit Roth's shoulder, encouraging him.

"Yes, sir."

Roth saluted awkwardly and smiled.

He then ordered the militia to raise the white flag, and then, followed by several farmers, opened the camp gate and walked out.

"Baron of Yongyi Territory! We have something to discuss!" A loud farmer next to Roth shouted.

"Let them come." Seeing this, Simon narrowed his eyes slightly, smiled lightly and said softly.

"Come here!" Aire shouted.

After a while, Roth was twenty steps in front of Simon, with four heavy infantrymen holding shields in the middle.

"What does your Baron Hela have to say?" Simon asked.

"Sir, our baron has not married yet and is interested in forming an alliance with you.

And we can appoint a male member of your family as a feudal knight, and the northern border of the Fearless Territory will be his territory.

I hope the two families can stop fighting and make peace and jointly resist danger. There are still a large number of orcs wandering in the forests of West Seti."

Roth bowed and spoke clearly.

Simon heard this and pondered for a moment with a strange look on his face. Then, while he was ecstatic, he grinned and said, "This is a good idea.

I agree, but I ask to write a marriage certificate now and hold the wedding in a few days.

Otherwise, if you regret it later, I will have to lead troops to fight again. You don't want to trick me back first, do you?!"

"This...please allow me to go back and report. I can't make the decision on this matter." Roth hesitated for a moment, then said with a happy face.

"Go, go and come back quickly!" Simon said in a deep voice, with a slight smile.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Roth led his men back to the camp at a trot.

After a while, they returned.

"Sir, our Baron Hela agreed to your proposal." Roth said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, open the camp gate and let us go in.

Aire, follow me in from the guards.

Mailan, you take the cavalry and the infantry to guard outside and surround them." Simon whispered immediately.

"Yes, sir." Mailan nodded slightly in response.

"Lead the way." Simon said loudly again.

"Sir, please!" Roth trotted and led the way.

After a while, they arrived at the bottom of the camp. The more than three-meter-high wooden door slowly opened, and dozens of people lined up inside to greet them.

It was loose and rough everywhere, just like a thieves' camp.

"I am Baron Hela Poke of the Fearless Territory, welcome to visit.

Sorry, I don't know your name yet?" Baron Hela said embarrassedly, wearing the lord's crown.

They don't have any information sources, and they don't know the names of the barons and families in the Valorous Territory.

"Simon Hollen, do you have the parchment? Please sign the marriage contract as soon as possible. I only have one sister named Gurney Hollen. She is ten years old this year (actually nine years old).

It will be delivered in a few days. You can hold a wedding and keep this place clean. I don't want my sister to suffer in your place. "

Simon said calmly, with a hint of indifference in his voice, as if he had a business-like attitude.

Baron Hela was slightly startled when he heard this. This Baron Simon was really quick in doing things.

"Yes, please come in and go to the hall." He said respectfully.

"No, bring a table."

As soon as Simon finished speaking, the soldiers poured in like a tide, occupying the high ground in the camp and various key positions.

The archers on the guard tower were all driven off and replaced with long and short archers from the Guards.

When Baron Hela and some members of his family saw this scene, they were filled with fear and their faces turned slightly pale.

Soon, soldiers brought a long table and placed it in an open space behind the camp gate, almost between the two barons.

At this time, Lot approached Baron Hela and said softly: "Sir, it's time to get the parchment and the lord's seal. Don't forget the ink pad."

"Oh, go get it. This is the cabinet key."

Baron Hela took out a copper key from the pouch on his waist as if he suddenly understood.

Parchment paper, ink pads, and fire paint were not cheap. He didn't buy much, but kept them as valuables.

"Yes!" Lot took the key and trotted away, and four light infantrymen from Simon's side followed him immediately.

Hela's expression changed, and she became a little anxious, but after a while, her aura was gone, as if she was completely decadent.

He was afraid that the coins in the cabinet would be confiscated by soldiers.

After a while, Lot came over with some things and put them on the table.

"Write it, the marriage letter between Miss Gurney of the Hollen family and Baron Lott of the Polk family. Please note, it is not a marriage contract!"

Simon said with a smile.

"Write it." Baron Hela looked at Lot and whispered, then looked at Simon with a flattering smile.

"Hey! Yes!" Lot picked up the quill, cut out a piece of parchment, flattened it and started writing.
