Chapter ninety-six, Rudolph's plan
Benson was dragged back to the dungeon by two strong soldiers, and his back was whipped. The blood marks in a row made him moan continuously. When the iron door closed with a bang, the prisoners huddled in the corner surrounded him.
"Benson, are you okay?"
"Please forgive us, we are so scared." The prisoners explained to Benson, but were curious about what Benson said when he was caught?
"I understand." Benson nodded. Betrayal in extreme situations is sometimes inevitable.
"Benson, what did they say to you?" a prisoner asked in confusion.
"They knew I was Anthony's deputy and asked me about Anthony's whereabouts." Benson gasped and said to them.
"That's right!" The prisoners were relieved when they heard this. This was of course. After the nobles knew that Benson was Anthony's deputy, they would definitely ask him about Anthony's whereabouts, and this had almost nothing to do with them. Some people even began to use their brains to ask whether the nobles would let them go if they could get Anthony's whereabouts from Benson's mouth.
Under this idea, the prisoners began to be kind to Benson, leaving their best position for Benson and giving Benson the only little water dripping from his head.
"So, Benson, do you know where Anthony went?"
"How could I know that when the team was broken up, I was separated from Anthony." Benson said angrily, and he could see through the thoughts of these people at a glance.
"What a pity, oh, I'm not saying regret." The prisoners' emotions fell again, and they were frustrated that they had lost this only chance to survive.
"You are like a group of prostitutes who have been fucked for free. Are you willing to stay here and wait for the nobles to put the noose around our necks?" Benson said to the prisoners.
"So what, can you turn into a rat or a cockroach to escape?" The prisoners were sarcastic when they found that Benson didn't know Anthony's whereabouts, and the prisoners were no longer in good mood.
"You idiots, see what this is?" Benson smiled. He took out a small piece of iron rod from his leather soles. He really didn't know how he hid the thing in his shoes.
"Where did you get it?" The prisoners were surprised when they saw it. After they were arrested, the soldiers searched their bodies to prevent the prisoners from getting any sharp things such as metal.
"I picked it up on the ground when they interrogated me, and when they didn't pay attention, I stuffed it into my shoes." Benson laughed, his teeth covered with blood, which was caused by biting his teeth when he was whipped.
"Well done, what are your plans?" The prisoners' eyes suddenly had hope of survival, and they quickly asked Benson.
"It's useless. Even if we escaped from the dungeon, there were archers and soldiers on the walls outside." At this time, one of the prisoners reminded everyone.
"Yes!" His words immediately gave up the idea of escaping. The fully armed soldiers in the castle and the archers in the archery tower were not vegetarians.
"Hey, actually I have a bold plan. Do you want to know?" Benson said to others, holding the small iron stick in his hand.
"What plan?" the prisoners asked curiously.
"Kill the Earl?" In Rudolph's bedroom, Maxiu said to Rudolph in surprise.
"Yes! As long as Benson incites prisoners, lets them attack the main tower, hijack the Count, Lady Agnes and Katrissi, and then we pretend to release them, and when they leave the castle, let Benson kill Lady Agnes and Katrissi." Rudolph sat on the chair, and he picked up the silver wine glass, which was filled with red and sweet wine.
"But it's too risky. Benson hasn't completely tamed yet. What if he doesn't obey the order?" Ma Xiu frowned. He always felt that Rudolph's plan was full of flaws.
"He must do it according to my order, otherwise he will be the first person to be hung on the gallows tomorrow." Rudolph made a deal with Benson in the interrogation room. As long as Benson acted according to his plan, he would let Benson and other prisoners free. Benson was forced to agree.
"Do you think Jenny is still there?" Ma Xiu immediately thought of Benson's sister Jenny. Using Benson's sister as a hostage would indeed make Benson obedient.
"Well, that's right!" But Rudolph actually refused to use Jenny as a hostage in his heart, but Jenny could only be regarded as the last bargaining chip, hoping not to be involved.
"Well, this is also a good plan. The remnants of the Flagless Brotherhood hijacked the Earl and his family. In the conflict, the Earl and his family died unfortunately. Although some people may be suspicious, it should be said that it is the past." Ma Xiu thought for a while and agreed. As a villain, he felt that this plan was feasible.
"No, only Mrs. Agnes and Ketrisey, don't move Count Schwartz for the time being." Rudolph put down his wine glass and said to Maxiu.
"Why, aren't you doing all this just to get the title of Earl?" Ma Xiu was stunned. He thought Rudolph would clear all obstacles at once.
"No, the Count is useful, you can't move it." Rudolf strengthened his tone and said to Maxiu.
"Then, okay! As you wish, Regent." Maxiu had no choice but to look at Rudolf and thought to himself whether Rudolf had a father-son relationship with Earl Schwartz in his heart?
Rudolph smiled bitterly in his heart. He really couldn't kill Count Schwartz. Although Count Schwartz was a very unqualified and even bad father, as a young man with a soul from the East, this kind of father-killing is really against human nature. Anyway, Count Schwartz is already under house arrest. I believe he will die naturally in the near future. As long as Mrs. Agnes and Ketrisey were eliminated, the opposition forces in the palace would basically be eliminated.
"It's delicious." Taylor sat next to the dining table in his home, and his wife made him an apple pie that almost made him bite his tongue.
"I can make it for you every day as long as you like to eat." The wife smiled and looked at her husband Taylor. She was very happy that the whole family could be reunited.
"Of course, of course." Taylor was not in a high mood. Although there was a smile on his face, he couldn't be happy.
"Dad, let's tell us your story on the battlefield!" But the children surrounded him and shouted loudly to tell him what he saw on the road.
"Uh, on the battlefield?" Taylor's cheeks shook slightly. He casually poked the remaining apple pie with a fork. He was also born and died on the battlefield, but he finally got the position of a stable manager, who was a warrior.
"Taylor, dear." The wife saw Taylor's mood swings and placed her hand on her husband's shoulder.
