Chapter 1062: Chapter 303: Betrayal Against Lord Lynn? (10,000 Words)_3

Not to mention, playing a supportive role in the upcoming war.

Even if summoned, sending guards and peasants into the battlefield would only result in increased casualties.

It might be more meaningful to involve these limited guards and peasants in the agricultural production of their manors.

Pushing down the shock and complexity in the heart.

Helena raised her head and asked.

"Lord, is there anything you need us to do?"

"As your supportive manor lords, we cannot just curl up in the manors indifferent while you lead the soldiers into war."

In Helena’s view,

Lord Lynn’s battle with Viscount Jon Zack’s military group,

is not solely Lord Lynn’s affair!

If Lord Lynn can achieve a decisive victory, then all is well.

But if Lord Lynn and Viscount Jon Zack are locked in a tug of war or a protracted battle...

Or worse, suffer a direct defeat!

Then the manors in Alba Town will have to face the ensuing crisis!

You could say,

Brick and Alex nodded in agreement.

Lynn paused for a few seconds and then spoke.

"In this case, you can lead the guards from the manor to assist in the battle."

"But one thing, I need to obtain command over the guards!"

Helena promptly nodded, respectfully responding.

"Of course, Lord."

Lynn glanced at the three and spoke,

"If there’s nothing else, then the three of you may leave."

"If the manor encounters a crisis, you can send someone to the manor castle to report in advance."

"As for the advanced cultivation tools and planting techniques I mentioned before... decisions can be made once the situation stabilizes!"

Helena and the others’ eyes lit up, they bowed and spoke respectfully.

"Thank you for the generosity, Lord, we shall take our leave."

Lynn replied with a nod, "You may leave."

Receiving Lynn’s affirmative response, Helena and the others withdrew.

However.

Lynn noticed, as the three walked out of the manor castle doors, Helena secretly turned back to glance at him.

When agreeing to the allegiance and loyalty of the manor lords.

Lynn had already considered whether to have the three manor lords gather the guards and peasants from their manors to fight together.

After all, there is strength in numbers.

But in an instant.

Lynn discarded this thought.

Not every war requires large numbers.

The soldiers’ quality matters more than quantity, and strategy matters more than bravery!

Without metal armor for protection and defense,

Without undergoing intensive systematic training,

No matter how many guards and peasants are present, they are merely a band of rabble equipped with weapons!

From the last time Wesley led archers and heavy infantry to attack Connelly Manor,

slaying more than 380 guards and peasants,

only several unarmored Pan Rock Iron Guard suffered varying degrees of injury.

3,800 soldiers entered Alba Town, destroying two manors,

without a single soldier lost!

It’s clear to see the terrifying gap between armored soldiers and unarmored soldiers.

Let Helena and the others lead guards to assist in battle.

The greatest purpose is to let them see the powerful strength of the lord they pledged allegiance to.

To instill fear, to make them despair, to prevent any thoughts of rebellion.

Only in this way can he control Alba Town!

...

Led by Earl.

Helena and the others walked in sequence along the steps of the city wall.

Perhaps due to Earl’s presence, they spoke no words.

But Brick’s eyes kept shifting, clearly wanting to express something.

Walking down the steps of the city wall, crossing the bluestone path, they arrived at the open square where guards and carriages awaited.

The three guard captains saw their manor lords return safely.

Their tense hearts relaxed slightly.

In the brief half-hour that the three manor lords went to meet the lord of Morgan Town,

they saw the number of armored soldiers, easily exceeding five hundred!

Even though these armored soldiers merely passed by the carriages,

the standard armor they wore glowed a black-gray under the light,

emanating a stern aura that filled them with dread!

Fortunately.

Their manor lord returned.

It seems they did not anger this powerful lord!

Under the gaze of the armored soldiers,

with the support of the guards, Helena and the others climbed agilely into the carriage cabins.

Mounted on the warhorse waiting, Earl confirmed there were no anomalies and drove the horse.

Leading this team of carriages, they proceeded out of the manor castle.

Amidst the sounds of driving horses, amidst the curious gazes of farmers in the fields.

The carriage convoy traveled along the gravel and mud path through the fields, leaving Morgan Town’s borders.

At the border between Morgan Town and Alba Town.

Riding the warhorse, Earl watched the convoy depart.

Until the convoy disappeared at the horizon, Earl retracted his gaze.

Turning to the rider beside him, Earl commanded gravely.

"Increase patrols, report any anomalies immediately!"

"We must ensure no further espionage infiltrations happen!"

The riders beside Earl responded in unison.

"Yes!"

...

In the densely flourishing mountains and forests.

Gigantic trees, each requiring several people to embrace, grew abundantly, their lush canopies covering the sky.
