Corian couldn't even hold out for a day, and couldn't wait for rescue from the Polante Thieves' Gang from Chishan Town.

Roning rode on his Cloud-Stepping Horse and stepped into the huge castle in the smoke-filled atmosphere.

"Haha, Roning, I didn't expect you to have a silver knight in your hands."

Marvin walked up with a smile, "Tell me, Rydar, have you been a silver level since the beginning?"

Rydal remained noncommittal.

Ronin changed the subject and said, "This Briso is a golden knight, so he must be kept under close watch. Also, how is Corrin?"

"Toru cut off his arm and he was seriously injured and unconscious. But the Silver Knight is strong and won't die for now."

"Bandage his wounds, and when the battle is over, take him to Wushan Castle and hand him over to the Marquis for treatment."

Roning and the others walked into the castle while talking to each other.

Two days ago they entered here as guests, but now they are the hosts.

I don’t know whose fiefdom the Stone Territory will become after this war is settled.

After conquering the Stone Castle, the next step was to control the knights and servants inside, and count the property.

In the fortress of Stonehenge, most of the leaders of the coalition forces were already present, listening to the reports of their subordinates.

Firstly, there was no member of Corien's family among the captives. It was obvious that he had moved all his family members away before the noble coalition arrived, and no one even knew where they had gone. Secondly, the treasures in Stonehenge were not as much as it seemed. There were less than 3,000 gold coins and not many other valuable jewels. It was estimated that Corien took them away when he moved his family members.

When hearing this report, everyone felt a little disappointed, as their dream of making a fortune was gone.

"Ronin, what are you going to do with these spoils?" Toru asked.

Although it is inevitable that some people will take the spoils of war for personal use when counting them, most of the time it is still the commander who decides how to distribute them.

In the past, after Wiggins won a game, he would say that he would be given time to come up with a distribution plan.

At the beginning, everyone really believed it and thought that the distribution plan would come out in three to five days at most.

But who would have thought that this plan has been delayed until now and has not yet appeared, and those trophies have long become Wiggins' private property.

As the son of Wiggins, how would Ronin deal with it? For Ronin, this battle was a battle of his performance, and his every move would be watched by these nobles and knights.

One's own strength is one aspect, but his ability to command, his attitude towards others, and the way he distributes the spoils all affect everyone's view of him.

If he really wants to become bigger and stronger in the future, he needs followers.

Therefore, Roning would naturally not do something as stupid as Wiggins.

"As for the spoils of war, Toru, select a few responsible persons from the noble coalition to formulate a distribution plan. The distribution should be roughly based on the number of nobles and their contributions, and those nobles who suffered greater losses should be given more care."

After all, others paid for the war out of their own pockets, and some even sacrificed their lives. It would be unreasonable not to let them get some spoils of war.

Moreover, for Ronin, the thousands of gold coins, jewelry, and the armor and weapons of the knights under Corian were all secondary. The things that could not be taken away were the main thing.

After hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

With this arrangement, everyone can benefit to some extent, so the hard work is worth it, and they are becoming more and more satisfied with the young commander.

"Sir, we just received a report from the scout cavalry that the troops of the Bolant Bandits have left Chishan Town and are heading towards the direction of Jushi Territory."

The news of the capture of Stonehenge had apparently not yet reached the ears of the Polante Bandits, so they naturally thought that Corian was still resisting.

"Philip, you continue to be responsible for scouting the enemy. Thorstein, you lead the troops to strengthen the blockade of Boulder City. No one is allowed to go out, especially to the south."

When the noble coalition entered the Stone City, Roning had already ordered his men to block the city and prevent anyone from entering or leaving, in order to prevent anyone from going out and tipping off the enemy.

Now that Stonehenge has fallen, if the thieves knew that Corian was defeated, they would probably retreat to Red Mountain Town.

"Also, have the messenger bird at Stone Castle send a message to Red Mountain Town, saying that the noble coalition's fighting power is low and Baron Correan has resisted two waves of attacks. Now that it is getting late, both sides have stopped fighting. I hope Amycus can come to support us as soon as possible."

Everyone couldn't help but smile sinisterly after hearing this.

I'm afraid the people of the Polante Thieves will be overjoyed to hear such news. After all, Corian can block the noble coalition with the castle. Once the two sides join forces, they will surely be able to wipe out the noble coalition.

They also felt that when fighting with a commander like Roning, they didn't need to think too much about the brain-intensive things, they just had to lead their troops and charge.

Inside the Stone Castle, there was a bright fire, and the leaders of the noble coalition were counting their respective spoils.

In Ronin's room.

"My lord, this bow and twenty-three magical arrows are for you."

Ridar handed the longbow used by Baron Corrin to Ronin and introduced it:

"According to Toru, the bowstring of this longbow was made by a master craftsman using the tendons of a level 3 magical beast, the Iron-armored Mane Bull. It's estimated to sell for more than two thousand gold coins on the market!"

“So amazing?”

Roning took the longbow. It didn't feel heavy in his hand, and apart from the dark red bowstring, it seemed nothing special in appearance.

He tried to pull the bowstring gently but failed.

"It's a bit tight."

While sighing, Roning increased his strength. With the sound of the longbow creaking, he pulled the bowstring and then let go.

"collapse!"

The bowstring recovered, making a huge noise that made Roning's entire arm tremble. If he hadn't held the bow tightly, he might have let it slip out of his hand.

"A longbow made of Warcraft materials, coupled with magic arrows, no wonder Corian was able to shoot through the high-level knight's fighting spirit armor and steel armor with one arrow. This bow is really powerful!"

Roning looked at the arrows in Redal's hand. The bow and arrows were worth more than three thousand gold coins in total. This group of people were really cute.

It's a pity that among his subordinates, Kurami and Baburin seem to be the only two with wind attribute.

However, they are only intermediate knights, and it is a bit difficult for them to use this bow.

"Rydar, it looks like you're going to teach me how to use a bow and arrow after this war is over."

For a professional knight, in addition to swordsmanship and horsemanship, archery is also one of the necessary skills to master.

"With your strength as a magician, my lord, you have a natural advantage in accuracy. Bows and arrows will not be a problem for you."

At the same time, outside the Stone City.

After a day of traveling, the Polante Bandits were now setting up camp to recover their strength.

"Any news from Stone City?" Amycus asked his deputy.

"The noble coalition has already sealed off Boulder City, and our people inside can't get out at all."

Holden looked worried. He felt uneasy because he couldn't get any news from inside.

"The noble coalition has arranged scouts to investigate our whereabouts. I quietly approached and observed that there was a cavalry guarding outside the Stone City. They were obviously on guard against us."

"They are not that stupid. They naturally know that we will support Corrine."

The four were discussing in the big tent when a cavalryman walked in quickly, "Sir, this is a letter sent by the messenger bird administrator in Chishan Town."

Amycus walked over quickly, took it in his hand and began to read.

"Corian has secured it!"

He smiled and cursed: "This group of noble coalition forces are really useless. With so many people, they can't even take down a castle."

The stone in Holden's heart finally fell.

"We are only a dozen miles away from Boulder Castle. We will set off at dawn tomorrow and will definitely arrive before Boulder Castle falls."

Suddenly, Ranivetha whispered, “Is it possible that this letter is fake?”

Everyone was stunned.

"Don't worry, it won't be fake!"

Amycus said as he took out the last letter from his pocket: "Look, the handwriting is the same." (End of this chapter)
