Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor Chapter 646 - 311: The Cold Blade Clan’s Response (Supplemen

...

...

"We’ve lost another town."

An old nobleman in a black fur coat with graying beard said solemnly,

"The Black Pine Army’s attack montum is too fierce."

"Nine days, it took only nine days for the Bailu Clan to fall."

Another tall nobleman echoed, "Our situation here isn’t much better."

"To be precise, it only took two days; the rest of the ti was spent on the road."

Marquis Cold Blade’s daughter, Viscount Winnie, said in a deep voice, "Survivors report that because Viscount Bai Lu refused to surrender, that Luo De, riding a dragon, burned the soldiers on the city walls to ashes."

"A strange sound ca from the land under the castle gates, and then with a piercing noise, the gates suddenly all cracked open."

"The Black Pine Ridge’s army rushed into the castle without any hindrance, Viscount Bai Lu was killed, and the rest of the Bailu Clan’s whereabouts are unknown."

After hearing Viscount Winnie’s words, all the nobles gasped, their faces turning pale.

Now everyone was in the sa boat, and Viscount Winnie wouldn’t spread false news to deceive them.

But Viscount Winnie’s words exceeded everyone’s understanding.

The war on a noble’s castle took only one day.

This was sothing no one dared to think of before.

And dragons, those legendary creatures, possess world-shattering power.

"I didn’t expect he truly had a dragon."

The old nobleman said seriously, "I didn’t believe the rumors from the southeast before, but I really didn’t expect it."

"It’s not just the dragon, Luo De’s army is terrifying too."

"The soldiers of Black Pine Ridge are well-equipped, extraordinarily strong, have great endurance, and fight with extre madness."

Winnie looked at the old nobleman and added, "Only twenty n breached Stone Hill Town of the Bailu Clan."

After these words, the entire council chamber fell into silence.

"If it’s really like this, what’s the point in fighting, we have no chance of winning."

The tall nobleman said irritably, shrugging his shoulders as he leaned back in his chair,

"We might as well just kneel and surrender to that Lord Rod."

"Shut up, Dak, your pessimistic words are annoying and unhelpful," another nobleman said.

"We must do sothing, we can’t just wait for Black Pine Ridge to annex our land."

"We have to find a way to curb Black Pine Ridge’s montum."

"We can unite with other families, gather all the forces we can muster, and launch a large-scale attack," a nobleman suggested.

But he was quickly waved down by another nobleman,

"Given the Empire’s current situation, we don’t know to whom the other northern nobles are loyal, can you dare to collaborate with them?"

"Moreover, although Black Pine Ridge’s army is small in number, their combat power far exceeds ours."

"Not to ntion the threat of that dragon."

The old nobleman also echoed at this ti, "The movent of the army is too large, if Baron Rod retreats to Frost Leaf Town with his army, we’d still have no way to deal with them."

The proposing lord said anxiously, "Then what can we do?"

"We can’t just do nothing, can we?"

"We can strengthen our defenses, concentrate our forces in Frost Castle, relying on the strong walls and terrain advantage."

"That would only delay ti, solid defense will only make our situation increasingly passive."

...

The council chamber was filled with argunts, as several nobles argued passionately,

Everyone was racking their brains, but every proposal was found to have fatal flaws.

Ti ticked away, the candle flas wavering in the spitting debate.

Like the people’s restless hearts.

After a long ti.

Winnie slowly spoke, "Perhaps... we shouldn’t be thinking about how to defend, but rather strike back."

All eyes turned to her.

"Waiting will only lead us to destruction."

A glint of cold light flashed in Winnie’s eyes, "Form an elite team to assassinate Luo De."

"No matter how strong Black Pine Ridge is, without Luo De, they will fall apart."

Light flared in the old nobleman’s eyes, "What kind of elite team? Go on."

"Composed of top knights and senior knights, then each of us will bring out our treasured extraordinary items to assist."

"Arm them fully, then seize the opportunity to launch a fatal strike when Luo De is off guard."

After Winnie finished speaking, several nobles nodded thoughtfully.

Gathering all the high-end combat forces of the Cold Blade Clan and other lords, this plan’s success rate is bound to be very high.

"I can provide shadow potions that can allow those knights to infiltrate silently beside Luo De."

The old nobleman was the first to speak, indicating his agreent with the plan.

"My family has an inherited enchanted longsword, capable of easily cutting through plate armor."

"I can provide a fla scroll, said to release a blaze upon tearing."

"My ring can increase the wearer’s agility."

...

The other nobles also expressed their support, hope gradually appearing in their eyes.

Winnie nodded heavily, her eyes revealing determination,

"Let’s do this, everyone go back and gather your army."

"As soon as Baron Rod is dead, we will imdiately counterattack, not only to reclaim the lost lands, but Eagle Ridge and the Desert will also be ours."

"For the Cold Blade Clan!"

Everyone rose up, responding in unison,

"For the Cold Blade Clan!"

"For the glory of the Northern Territory!"

...

...

The streets of the border town were shrouded in snow.

Snowflakes fell like goose feathers, accumulating in the cracks of the stone-paved road.

The cold wind howled, swirling snow grains, stinging the cheeks painfully.

A middle-aged man in a heavy black fur cloak stood in the snowy alley behind the tavern.
