Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

Chapter 164 A neat family

On the sentry tower of White Frost Castle, Pierre's eldest son was pointing excitedly at the chaotic military camp in the distance and said, "Father, I saw it all. That's one of my soldiers. He's killing the enemy in the enemy camp now!"

Pierre looked at his eldest son as if he was an idiot. How could he recognize that the man in armor was his personal soldier at such a long distance when he didn't know any reconnaissance magic?

Those who originally wanted to surrender now turned into advocates of war and begged Pierre to open the gate and launch a general attack.

"Father, if we don't go to help my sister now, when will we have to wait? After all, the enemy is coming with such force. If we are late, my sister might even be killed!"

One by one, those who usually didn't care about Emily at all stood up and vowed to live and die with Emily.

Some people had even put on their armor and called their guards, waiting for Pierre to say open the door.

"No, wait a little longer. It might be a trap set by the other party."

Pierre was sweating profusely and didn't know how to explain.

"What other trap could there be? Didn't my sister succeed in her night raid? Father, please open the door! Otherwise, what if my sister is captured?"

If it was just an ordinary night attack that was successful, the nobles in White Frost Castle would not be so anxious, but the current situation was that the enemy's camp looked in chaos, like a dilapidated house that would collapse with a push.

This is also consistent with the inference of some pro-war factions in the castle. The other side only relied on advanced weapons to capture cities and strongholds. Once they encountered a tough opponent, they would be full of flaws. After all, these people were not like old Pierre who had personally fought with the troops below.

In addition, old Pierre had also said similar ambiguously in order to maintain morale in the castle.

So everyone in the castle wanted to go out to fight. After all, from now on, this was not just an ordinary successful night attack, but a great victory, a victory that would go down in history.

Going up at this time would be a free reward for military merits. The Laurent family was originally an old family in the North. With these military merits, it would not be impossible for the Laurent family to restore the glory of their ancestors.

Now the other members of the Laurent family are almost getting anxious as if if they were any later, all the military merits would be snatched away by Emily.

People whose soldiers were requisitioned by old Pierre kept pointing at the blurry figures in the distance and saying that it was one of their own soldiers, and they couldn't wait to put on their armor and go into battle to support their soldiers.

"No, we should wait for Emily to come back. Emily has severely damaged the enemy now. We should wait for our allies to arrive before launching a general attack."

Old Pierre was stunned for a long time, and finally uttered only these words.

"Alas, father! When did you become so pedantic? Look, my sister has already fought so hard, and it's obvious that she doesn't plan to come back. She's asking us to support her! And when the allies come, won't the credit be shared by everyone?"

Others nodded.

"Young Master is right."

"Master, open the door!"

What could Pierre say? Was it all fake? Did he tip off the opposing commander, and was there no way this night attack would succeed?

Or is it that all this is to get Emily out of White Frost Castle and cut Emily out?

In the end, Pierre could only respond with silence.

But the others were not happy, and they stood and moved closer to Pierre's eldest son. Seeing that there were enough people supporting him, Pierre's eldest son stamped his feet and said, "Father, how can you be so pedantic! My sister is still waiting for our support outside, and as the eldest brother, I can't just sit there and do nothing!"

After saying that, he took the others away, seemingly preparing to force open the city gate.

Pierre glanced at the guards and professionals around him. He could certainly use violence to stop these people, but if he did so, he was afraid that civil unrest would break out in the castle.

"and many more!"

Old Pierre finally stopped these people.

"Open the castle gates, but everyone must obey my orders."

Old Pierre made up his mind and stomped his feet, ready to go out and fight, and surrender if he couldn't win.

Although the truth can be told, what is the difference between the Laurent family losing its cohesion and being dead? Just surrender. Old Pierre has been mentally exhausted by the series of bad news recently, and has also given up on himself. Surrender is the end of it.

The gate of White Frost Castle was finally opened, and old Pierre rushed out with the elite troops in the castle.

However, as soon as they rushed out of the gate, the eldest son and the second son took the cavalry away from the team without authorization and rushed straight towards the burning military camp.

Just as he was about to stop the two sons who were blinded by their sister and military achievements, a team of white-helmeted knights who seemed to have been lying in ambush for a long time rushed out.

The molten spears in their hands that emitted orange light were extremely bright in the darkness, especially the light at the tip of the spear, which was dragged like orange-red meteors.

Pierre knew there was an ambush, but he didn't expect it to come so soon. The other side was probably confident that they could end the battle quickly.

After just one encounter, the two sons were frightened and scattered by the opponent's team of white-helmeted knights.

Pierre planned to resist first and save his two disappointing sons, and then surrender when he could no longer defeat them. After all, old Pierre still had some dignity to maintain.

But the enemy cavalry was composed entirely of Lars' knights. Even though they had no equipment advantage, each of them was incredibly tough. After dispersing the team in front, the enemy seemed to realize that their side was the main force. They simply ignored the two useless sons and charged straight towards Pierre.

Just as the spellcasters on Pierre's side were about to counterattack, the opponents took out their muskets and fired at them to suppress them, and then started close combat with molten spears.

With the help of his equipment, Knight Lars gave Pierre a heavy feeling, like a city wall rushing towards him. The suffocating feeling that any attack was ineffective could make a person completely collapse.

But Pierre brought out the elite soldiers of White Frost Castle after all, and the two sides fought steadily for several rounds.

However, during the fight, Pierre discovered that his retreat route was completely blocked and he was gradually being surrounded. Any operations and commands were useless, as the opponent could defeat him just by taking steady steps.

What was burning in the distance seemed to be not the enemy's military camp, but Pierre's White Frost Castle.

Looking at the white-helmeted knight holding a molten spear not far away, Pierre took a deep breath. He realized that he had done his best for Doug and began to prepare to surrender.

At this time, the enemy's white-helmeted knights seemed to be well prepared. A white-helmeted knight with a more complicated armor style rode up to the front and shouted, "Knights of White Frost Castle, today's battle has proved your loyalty and courage, but why would you risk your life for a man who killed his father to seize the throne? As long as you are willing to surrender, the Governor is willing to forgive your previous resistance in the name of the Lars family. Lay down your weapons!

The knights around Pierre were obviously shaken, and Pierre did not expect that the other party would be willing to give him a way out at this time, so he nodded and shouted: "The Laurent family is willing to surrender!"

"The Laurent family is willing to surrender!"

As the knights of White Frost Castle continued to shout, the entire battlefield quickly calmed down.

The next morning, Pierre and his two sons met the captured Emily. After seeing Emily, the two brothers suddenly cried out loudly: "Sister! I'm sorry! I didn't expect that these people would ambush us even though their camp was burned down!"

Her eldest son and second son were hugging Emily who was tied up and crying, while Emily was looking at her two brothers with embarrassment on her face, not knowing what to say for a moment.

It seems that these two people don't know that they have stepped into the opponent's trap. They think that their sister is killing the enemy in the front and they are holding back in the back.

Well, the two brothers are a bit stupid, but at least they still care about their sister, and at least the family is complete now.
