The tailless metal arrow flew out from the crossbow mouth and accurately penetrated Count David's head and inserted it on the wall behind him.

His body leaned back and fell to the ground, bright red and pink, liquid and semi-solid, slowly flowing out.

Die with your eyes open.

After a brief surprise, the screams of the participants - some of the uninformed people were in panic.

Only a part of the people—most people weren’t too shocked.

They had known this would happen long ago.

Marquis Lelan quickly pulled the crossbow pole again, after putting the strings, aimed at the second son of Count David, who was also sitting next to the long table, and pulled the trigger without hesitation;

Before the chubby count's second son could react, he was penetrated by arrows and blood began to gush out like spring water.

The loyal chief guard had a meal not far from the long table; after seeing this tragedy, he roared and picked up the fork at his hand to fight against Marquis Lelan, but before he could pounce on the latter, an arrow penetrated his head.

The arrow then flew out half of the distance from the living room and was inserted into the shoulder of an unlucky guy.

This continuous short crossbow can be easily fired again - before the casing is exhausted, you only need to pull the lever to complete it.

Marquis Lelan effortlessly solved two more knights who tried to pounce, and then there was no one else-

There are no enemies anymore.

While Marquis Lelan shot and killed Count David, the other attendants on the table moved;

The more than twenty servants he brought were wearing wide dresses on the surface, but in fact they were close-fitting leather armor, and there were short swords hidden in the mezzanine of the fabric;

They drew their swords and slashed at the people carrying the Clinder family badges - they were directly under the Earl of David, and only they were completely unaware of this banquet.

The followers of other families had known this a long time ago; they watched strangers slash their former colleagues indifferently, glad that they didn't need to take action themselves.

Half of the servants loyal to Count David lost their lives before they could react; the remaining half wanted to resist, but they were powerless - they were bare-handed and had no armor!

Because of Count David's previous stupid orders, these people could not even find some handy weapons!

The massacre was simple and fast; more than half of the people did nothing, said nothing, just watched.

Looking at the owner of Baiyan Castle, he changed to another nobleman in a few breaths.

"Everyone." Marquis Lelan nodded his head and smiled, looking at the living room with the smell of blood: "From now on, your new lord will be Count Tad Rank. Yes, Count Tad."

"Just now, I appointed him as the Lord of Baiyan City and conferred him the throne of Earl; today's banquet is to celebrate the glorious promotion of Earl Tade. You should cheer and cheer."

Even though they were mentally prepared, the followers of these other nobles were still silent.

They need some time to accept this reality-

The gentle and charitable Earl David was shot and killed by the strange nobleman in front of him just now.

Without hesitation, there was no slight affection; the body of Count David was still flowing with blood, and now the red liquid had spread to the feet of Marquis Lelan.

Marquis Lelan was not satisfied with the quietness, so he raised his crossbow and shot another sword at the roof of the castle.

The crisp sound of metal and stone collision hit everyone's heart.

"Cheer, and cheer." Marquis Lelan put down his crossbow, and did not raise the volume, but slowly repeated what he had just said.

"Oh...oh......" Some people began to cater to the trembling voice.

This little voice obviously cannot impress the cold ruler.

So the Marquis Lelan lifted the crossbow slightly—

"oh----!!!"

"oh--!!!"

"Long live the Rank family--!"

"Long live--!!"

He had to use some means. Marquis Lelan snorted softly, then moved his gaze to Earl Tad.

"Sir Tade, from now on, Bai Yancheng will be left to you to manage."

"I will definitely live up to my entrustion."

Marquis Lelan's eyes moved to the three daughters of Count David again.

"Pull them into the dungeon." Marquis Lelan ordered the servant who held the three of them, "As for what they are used for... it will be decided by the new Baiyan City Lord."

"Thank you for your kindness."

"Okay, the banquet continues! The people from the Hui family need to leave the seat for a while. Go and clean up Baiyan Castle!"

The more than 20 servants brought by Lelan Hui were all good players, and each of them was above the Iron Wolf. Although there was no full set of equipment now, their strength was still not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers.

What's more, the rest of the Clinder family members in the castle did not have weapons to use - the key to the armory was in the hands of Count Tad Rank.

The south city gate had already been opened, and the Hui family army outside began to enter the city;

Most of them went directly to the White Rock Fort and surrounded it; the rest of the soldiers were scattered into small groups - according to Earl Tader, there were some people in the city who were particularly loyal to the Clinder family and needed to be dealt with first.

The "cooperation" was so smooth, even beyond the expectations of Marquis Lelan; he thought the Clinder family would have some decent resistance, but he did not expect it to be cleared so easily.

Long ago Viscount Tad - now the Earl - had joined the line with the Marquis Lelan;

The former wants to change a lord who is more suitable for him, while the latter wants to annex Baiyan City. The two can be said to be a perfect match.

Marquis Lelan has the strength to capture Baiyan City, but because of the serious losses, he has never planned to take action;

Earl Tad had previously stated that he could serve as an insider to support his offensive in the city - such as opening the city gate;

Originally, the two of them needed Xu Tu to advance, but the invasion of the Corey tribe some time ago gave Earl Tad a great opportunity - David's handling measures were really too bad. Not to mention Earl Tad, he also disgusted the other four vasses. In this case, the other vasses also had the idea of ​​changing their masters.

After all, David usually disgusted vassals under the banner of "for the people", so he had long been unhappy about him.

So, Earl Tader and Marquis Lelan planned such a plan - to hold a banquet in the White Rock Fort, and the elite troops brought by Marquis Lelan cleared the power of the Clinder family in the fort; as for the other standing troops in the city -

The Clinder family's standing army is not enough for other families to see.

Poor Count David never knew that his vassal had betrayed him until his death.

For the nobles who continued to drink at the long table, they didn't care about loyalty at all;

After Earl Tad becomes the lord of Baiyan City, he will pay taxes to Marquis Lelan; of course, he will double or even several times squeeze back from the people of Baiyan City.

Marquis Lelan knew that these sellers who were seeking honor were not trustworthy, and he did not intend to go deep into danger in vain—he was prepared before entering Baiyan City—
