Four days later, Xiwei successfully arrived at Greystone City with his army.

He temporarily stationed his army in a basin three kilometers away from Greystone City. There were some rocks nearby to serve as cover. Then he rode a turkey alone to Graycastle to attend the pre-war meeting.

This time he did not go out in force. The 10,000 militiamen were all selected from the city guards of major towns.

The rest are distributed among the eight major towns and continue to guard the city walls.

In fact, he is not very worried. According to the spies' report, the Andorra Empire next door is being invaded by the Naga Sea Tribe, and it is now a very stressful time.

The surrounding lords were also summoned to go on an expedition, and the Bloodfang tribe in the Orc Empire that had a grudge against him had also been uprooted by players in Dawn Town.

Even the elf princess Ashelia is watched by Mrs. Chris and Nina.

So relatively speaking, the Eagle collar is still very safe within a month.

As soon as Xiwei arrived at the gate of Graystone Castle, he ran into Count Most, who was surrounded by a group of nobles.

"Good day, Earl Eagle."

Count Moster had a faint smile on his face.

This is a middle-aged man who looks handsome. The beard at the corner of his mouth has been carefully groomed and rolled up into two neat and symmetrical curls. His eyes are neither big nor small, but there is a hidden arrogance.

"Hello, Mr. Most." Xiwei nodded.

As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person. Everyone is an earl. Maybe he will go to the earl's territory to slap the autumn wind in the future. The proper etiquette must be fulfilled.

Although it looked like Xiwei didn't want to chat, Most didn't want to let him go just like that. Instead, he took two steps forward and walked side by side with Xiwei, and said in a calm tone:

"The Eagle Territory is a great place. It's bigger than my county. I wonder how many troops you have brought with you this time?"

"Haha, the Eagle territory is vast and sparsely populated, and there are not many troops. It makes Count Most laugh." Xiwei grinned, pretending to be regretful and helpless and said:

"This time I brought 200 knights and more than 3,000 militiamen. I only have so much equipment and I can't raise more troops."

"Very good! Earl Eagle also tried his best. I believe His Highness the Prince will not say anything."

Most got the answer he wanted, and the arrogance and pride in his eyes almost overflowed.

He showed off casually:

"Hey, I don't have much of an army. It can't be compared with the lords of those fertile lands. I only have a little more than you. I have a thousand knights and more than 10,000 militiamen, all with armor and weapons."

Hearing this, Xiwei twitched the corner of his mouth and said nothing. He walked into the conference room silently and randomly found a seat for the count to sit down.

Most thought that the Eagle Lord was intimidated by him, so he naturally felt very comfortable. He stopped being pretentious and sat on a seat far away from the Eagle Lord with disgust.

Since the eldest prince summoned five lords in total last time, he was not summoned, which made Most, who was usually proud, feel very embarrassed.

In addition, he believed that the lords summoned by the eldest prince would definitely become the core nobles of the royal capital in the future.

So why can't he?

This was an opportunity, so as soon as he returned to his territory, he began to frantically recruit soldiers, selling iron and steel to gather 10,000 armed militiamen.

Coupled with the more than a thousand knights at hand, as a border count, this is already a good military force.

This time, he will surely impress His Highness the Great Prince and let him know that he, Most, is much better than Sivi Golden Lion, who is also the Earl of the Border.

After all the lords, minor nobles and the player representatives, the scheming frog, arrived, Calant and the eldest prince Bylerfulun arrived belatedly.

A castle guard took the parchment, walked around the conference room, wrote down the military strength carried by each lord on the parchment, and then handed it to Calante.

Kalant glanced at the parchment, then looked at the map on the conference table and thought for a moment, then raised his head and looked around the lords in the conference room, and said loudly:

"At present, the lords of Rhodes Territory, Monte Territory and Male Wolf Territory have surrendered to the Holy See, and their armies are also guarding their respective territories, forming the first line of defense to attack the royal capital. The first thing we have to do is to break this line of defense.

, and then jointly attack the royal capital."

"I know some people will ask, can't we bypass these troops?"

"The answer is no." Calante paused and continued to explain with a serious expression:

"These troops must be removed, otherwise they will be suddenly surrounded by the military forces of the three core territories during the attack on the royal capital, and the consequences will be disastrous."

"Then let's arrange your offensive tasks now."

"Earl Eagle, Count Most, you have the largest total army, attack the largest Rhodes Territory together."

"Viscount Fit and Baron Wundt of the Tulip Territory followed me and the graystone army of the eldest prince to attack the Monte Territory."

"Finally, Earl Frostwolf, Viscount Hyacinth and the strangers, you will attack the male wolf territory together."

"For other minor nobles who only have titles but no territory, you can just bring your troops and follow your respective lords."

"After securing three territories, assemble at the designated location."

"Do you have any other questions?"

Kalant asked the last question, and found that everyone in the conference hall seemed to have no objections, so he made a decision:

"Then I won't waste your time. The war situation is urgent. Please arrive at your respective attack positions before noon. I have also drawn the gathering positions on the simple map."

As he spoke, Kalant motioned to the guards behind him to send the simple maps to the lords present. After all the lords got the maps, he took out two blue crystals engraved with runes and asked the guards to hand them to Xiwei and Xiwei respectively.

Earl Frostwolf said:

"This is the communication crystal. You can rely on this thing to report to me after you arrive."

After Kalant finished speaking, he and the eldest prince walked out of the conference room, but a questioning voice came from behind:

"Sir Calante, why should the summons crystal be given to Earl Eagle instead of me?"

After hearing this, Calant turned around and glanced at Count Most, with contempt in his eyes. He moved his mouth to say something, but in the end he said nothing, snorted lightly and walked away.

He is very busy now and has to prepare the baggage for the three attacking armies. He has no time to talk nonsense with Count Most.

The siege equipment has been built, and the food and fodder have been prepared. The eldest prince has summoned these lords to send out troops and men. Graycastle cannot let these lords work in vain.

Most watched Calant leave in confusion, feeling a little confused.

This communication crystal is usually given to the army commander. Why not give it to him when he obviously has more soldiers?

Could it be that the Eagle Lord is Kalant's father?

With an ugly expression, Most turned his head to look for the Eagle Lord, only to find that he had left at some point.

He couldn't help but secretly hate it in his heart.

Anyway, he has a lot of troops, so he can just force the Eagle Lord to hand over the communication crystal when the time comes, and then let the Eagle Lord's troops be used as cannon fodder when they attack the city!
