"Kill all these people. They are no longer worthy of being called human beings." Harold waved his hand coldly and ordered without explaining anything. There was a huge commotion among the crowd, and the old oil men also quickly shouted: "No, Lord Knight! I am willing to die to atone for my sins, but my family is innocent. Please show mercy and let me go." How is my family?" "Yes, this child is innocent! My son just has no choice but to live like this with me. If possible, I want to give my child a warm home and a stable life." The crowd started shouting and hooting. The children hid in the arms of their mothers or fathers and cried. The parents also held their children tightly and looked at the Kaidan mercenaries around them who raised their cavalry sabers with miserable expressions. Robert covered his ears and rolled his eyes. "Don't you have family and children? What else can we do when we are desperate? It's not just to find food for them. We don't want to be robbers." An old man who looked old cried sadly. Said: "We just want to survive, have we done anything wrong?" Harold's anger had filled her chest, and just when she couldn't help but want to say something, Robert finally couldn't help but speak first. "I'm so annoyed. Do those people you killed deserve to die?" Robert scolded in an unhappy tone: "Wait a minute, are you still going to say that this is the only way we can do it?" Live. Bah, it really disgusts me. Don't pretend to be innocent, okay? You are not wrong, are the people you robbed at fault? " The crowd shouted louder and more fiercely to refute what Robert said, making the latter not want to pay attention to it at all. "Execute the order!" Harold shouted to the surrounding Kaidan mercenaries.
"Mom, I'm afraid!" "Don't be afraid, mom is here, dad is here too. We will be fine." Those old fat men realized that this knight was not willing to take soft and hard tactics, and they were determined to kill them all. The expressions on their faces instantly changed from weak to fierce. They huddled in the crowd and shouted instigation: "Folks, you will die anyway. It’s better to fight them!” "Yes! If there is no way to survive, why are we waiting here! Only by fighting a bloody way for our own children can we have hope of survival!" The Kaidan mercenaries had no interest in understanding the "deep" friendship and family ties of these bandits. They faithfully carried out the orders of Harold, the lost knight, and easily blocked the crowds who were encouraged to resist. They were generous. The sharp cavalry sabers chopped off the heads of the bandits one after another. Among them, the mercenary who took Harold to the backyard of the cottage was the fastest and most ruthless. After a while, bright red blood stains were flowing everywhere in this open space. The strong smell of blood made people want to vomit, as if it had become a scene like purgatory on earth. If there is a necromancer present at this time, I am afraid that a resentful army of the dead will be raised immediately. The battle-hardened knights and Kaidan mercenaries were naturally not affected by the sight in front of them. After killing these bandits, they began to sprinkle fire-supporting grease on the pile of corpses to concentrate sparks. Robert approached Harold and asked curiously: "Master Harold, what did you see in the back mountain that made you so angry?" Harold hesitated, raised his hand and pointed in the direction of the backyard and said angrily: "You can see for yourself. The hidden door is behind a wooden board." Robert stepped forward and followed the direction directed by Harold. He quickly walked back with an angry and disgusting expression, and spat twice as he passed by the pile of corpses being burned. "Then I don't have anything to do here, so I'll go on my own." Robert felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach. Even a faded person who was wandering around the border was still a little nauseous when he saw the scene of people eating people. Harold looked at Robert's uncomfortable look and nodded: "Okay, then Sir Robert, please be careful on the road." Robert waved his hand casually, turned around and left without much pause. Three days later, Morn City, City Lord Hall. Roland, Edgar, Kenneth Hyde and others were all in the city main hall, listening to Harold report the details of the operation. "...The above is the entire content of this bandit suppression operation." Harold sat in his seat and reported to Luo Lanhui in the main seat. Gabra has been imprisoned in the dungeon of Morn City, and the hidden information has been pried out of his mouth.
It was true that they failed and escaped during the battle with the Holy Empire of France. It was just because they accidentally encountered a group of soldiers from the Holy Empire of France on their way to perform a secret mission. And the task they want to perform is "disguising the Golden Dynasty by pretending to be robbers." Roland nodded heavily and smiled at Harold: "You did a good job, Harold. Thank you for your hard work this time. I will give you a day off tomorrow and have a good rest." "Thank you very much, Lord Roland." Harold bowed respectfully to Roland. At this time, Edgar asked: "Although we have become enemies with the Charles Empire, the enemy will definitely smear our image in the enemy's territory. But these soldiers are specially sent to pretend to be us. I still feel that some of the opponents are too big. Is it a trivial matter?" Roland did not answer Edgar's question immediately, but fell into deep thought. Although Gabra did not say who issued this order through his superiors, Roland already had some clues. He vaguely remembered that when he was still in the Lulan Chamber of Commerce, he boasted to Lu Yi one day during dinner that there was no such thing as a "war of public opinion" in this world. The other party was immediately interested and asked about the specific implementation method. Humph, are you deliberately demonstrating to me?Roland shook his head slightly in his heart. Chapter 55: Establish a patrol team "Edgar, things are not as simple as you think." Roland said to the confused Edgar: "Most people are blind, even if it is a fictitious thing, they only need to hear some gossip. , will all believe it to be true.” Edgar looked puzzled. Coming from the border area, he really couldn't understand this situation. Roland saw the expression on Edgar's face and nodded slightly to express his understanding. If you think about it carefully, the people at the junction, except Patch, all have something to say, and there is almost no concept of "framing". For example, Lani's involvement in the Night of the Black Knife can be said to be very the player asked her if she was related to the Night of the Black Knife, Lani admitted it very generously. She had no intention of lying at all. When the player continued to ask, she just said, "I don't want to tell you." He probably still prides himself on his strength, but maybe he doesn't pay much attention to his words and all, no matter how much you talk about it, it is of no use if you punch it to pieces by others. "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, Lord Edgar." Roland said: "Humans in this world are more accustomed to using the power of language than speaking with fists. You only need to understand this." Edgar nodded slowly: "I understand, Lord Roland. I'm afraid I still have a lot to learn about this world." "Kenneth Hyde." Roland continued: "In addition to asking the bards who came to Morn City to give them money to praise the Golden Dynasty, we also need to send some nobles and dignitaries out to promote it. It just so happened that the dwarves came recently to build I have a lot of new gadgets that can be sold, so let them bring the products made by the dwarves and pretend to be merchants. I can give you four Knight Commanders of Grek and the twenty Kaidan mercenaries I just summoned to use as a caravan. The guard, the rest will be left to you to decide.” The reason why the Homeless Knights are not sent out is because their storm combat skills and Dragon Feast Prayer have become their iconic identity under the publicity of the Holy Empire of if their appearance can be disguised, their combat skills and prayers cannot. Others will know that they are from the Golden Dynasty at a glance. Kenneth Hyde, whose name was called, touched his rich golden beard on his chin and nodded in agreement: "Hmm, don't worry, Lord Roland, but which country should our caravan go to first?" Roland unfolded the map drawn on the parchment and preserved with magic. These were the maps he had sent to ask the bards and mercenaries traveling around in Moren City these days. He was also cooperating with some civilians who came to seek refuge in Moren City. After what he said, he sent people to the scene to observe and eliminate the wrong information before drawing it up, which really cost him a lot of energy. It's not like he didn't want to use his previous life experience to draw a map, but the terrain is okay, but most of the countries that existed 35 years ago are no longer there. Roland didn't prepare the landmarks and couldn't be sure that the map he drew was. correct. Roland's eyes followed his fingers as they moved on the map. To the north is the Holy Empire of France. He has sent Roger, D, Feiya and the Faded Ones who follow Feiya. The north of the Holy Empire of France is a snowfield, and the snowfield is separated from the place further north by a continuous mountain was the territory of the minions of Chaos and the Evil God, and it was where the orcs lived in ancient Holy Pontifical State is in this position and has been resisting enemies who want to invade the interior of the Sarid continent. As for the Elf Songyue Dynasty, it is also close to the Holy Empire of France. The towering World Tree has this group of brave and fighting forest people living in the forest around it. To the south is the endless forest where the golden tree itself is located. Not to mention the country, there are no people there, so naturally I passed this option.
To the east is the direction of Leiden City, and further east are other towns in the Charles Empire and the dwarves' Stoneheart Castle. To the west are some scattered human countries. Although their territory is not as broad as the Holy Empire of France and the Empire of Charles, they can still be regarded as relatively prosperous cities among human countries formed an alliance when facing the expansion and invasion of the Charles Empire more than ten years ago. They jointly resisted the invasion and pushed back the Charles Empire before it stopped its expansion. When Roland and Kahn Hammer were discussing matters related to the air force, the dwarf prince said that the Kingdom of Bexun, which owns the Griffin Knights, is one of the main members of these national to these heroic griffin knights who blocked the dragon knights of the Charles Empire, the coalition forces had the opportunity to counterattack and expel the Charles Empire's troops. "Let's go to the Human Kingdom Alliance in the west." Roland finalized the destination of the caravan. The map in his hand belonging to the Human Kingdom Alliance only had text representing each country on it, and did not have too detailed terrain. Appearance. I heard from travelers who came to Morn City from outside that the human kingdoms in the west were severely blocked by the Charles Empire in terms of goods, and things like those produced by the dwarves were basically not allowed to flow there privately. Then the Lulan Chamber of Commerce in the Charles Empire sold the goods needed by these countries at high prices to make huge profits. "Jonson Bloodhoof, I remember that your Bloodhoof clan has lived in these human kingdoms for a period of time before?" Roland raised his head and spoke with some uncertainty to the tauren who was much taller than the others in the city lord's hall. the chief inquired. After the tauren of the Bloodhoof clan officially joined the Golden Dynasty, Roland also asked the warchief to participate in every meeting. Although he had participated in several meetings, Jonson Bloodhoof still felt a little uncomfortable and even flattered. After all, no human kingdom would allow orcs to participate in leadership decision-making meetings. At this moment, when his name was suddenly called, it immediately shivered, and immediately replied loudly: "Yes, our Bloodhoof clan has wandered from the north to the west, in the Holy Empire of France, the Charles Empire, and the countries you are referring to. These human countries have lived in these countries for a period of time. If you need it, Lord Roland, the Bloodhoof clan will send the most courageous warriors to protect these merchants!" Roland shook his head slightly: "No, the news of you joining the Golden Dynasty has probably been spread throughout the Salid continent by the mercenaries and merchants. Now everyone outside should know that the Golden Dynasty has tauren soldiers, and you will definitely follow them. Reveal your identity.” "Ah? What do you need me to do?" Jonson Bloodhoof touched his dark horns doubtfully. Roland smiled and said: "What I mean is that when the meeting is over, you and Kenneth Hyde can explain more about the relationship between the human kingdoms in the West, so that he can make some preparations in advance." "Ah, that's no problem. I will explain to Sir Kenneth Hyde the experiences of the past few years and the things that need attention." Jonson Bloodhoof patted his chest and said. Roland nodded, and then asked the big tree guard sitting at the end of the conference table: "Fernandi, I think we still need a few patrol teams on the national highway between Moren City and Leiden City to ensure that those who come The lives and property of the people of the Golden Dynasty are safe. So I want to ask you, who is good at defense, if you have any good ideas." The tall body of the big tree guard put on the golden armor and sat there, even more imposing than the tauren chief next to him. Fernandi thought for a while and replied in a deep voice: "If you give me 600 soldiers of the Royal Army to complete this task, I will formulate the patrol direction and shift change time in detail. But when 600 soldiers were suddenly transferred, For Moren City or Leiden City, it will cause a shortage of city defense manpower, so I need to discuss it with Lord Edgar." Roland showed a wry smile. There were too few soldiers in his hands, which had always been a flaw. However, Roland is gradually solving this problem. In addition to directly summoning soldiers from the border area, he has also recruited militiamen from many civilians who have taken refuge, including many believers who have been blessed by grace. Of course there are also the tauren from the Bloodhoof clan who joined before. As for the dwarves in Stone Heart Castle, they are only allies with each other and will send troops to help relieve the siege at critical if you are counting on the dwarves to help patrol in peacetime like the soldiers of the Golden Dynasty, forget it. However, except for the tauren, the quality of the recruited local soldiers was very uneven. There are those who have never been soldiers or even fought before, and there are also mercenaries or noble guards who have been bleeding for many years. Roland had also received a report from his subordinates before, saying that more than 20 highland human warriors from the north had come to Morn City to join the Golden Dynasty. After confirming that they passed through a highland female warrior named Gold Bewley, Introduced. The female warrior was confirmed by the church priests and confirmed that she had already developed a deep belief in the golden tree. Her eyes that gradually became as dazzling as gold were the best proof. There are also many people similar to what happened to Gauld Bewley who defected to the Golden Dynasty, but these people don't seem to be very good at group warfare, so they cause a headache to the Gray Knights who train them. It does not mean that they are thorny and disobedient to discipline. It just takes a lot of effort to change the bad fighting habits they have developed in the first half of their lives. Their progress is not even as fast as that of recruits who have been fully exposed to combat.
Of course, this progress only refers to group operations. In terms of personal strength, the former crushes the latter. "Hmm... Lord Fernandi, if we don't limit our sights to the royal army or the exiled soldiers, Lord Roland's request can actually be solved easily." Kenneth Hyde coughed lightly, He stood up and bowed to the tree guard and said. The big tree guard frowned, not understanding what Kenneth Hyde was talking about. "In Nimgofu, which is far away from our hometown of the royal city of Rodel, in addition to the unscrupulous Lord Grek's king's army who are responsible for patrolling the national highway, there are also many troll knights and demihuman soldiers who also help share a lot of patrols. The pressure. Of course, Lord Roland has not summoned the demi-humans now, but there are hybrids who are more powerful than the demi-humans. Letting them help is also a good choice." "Now Lord Roland can drive the flying dragon 'Yakir' and the dragon soldiers from the Eternal City. If we can let them fly in the sky to help check the locations that are not easy to see from the ground, then the people on the ground can Soldiers save a lot of time." The big tree guard "Fernandi" frowned. He really didn't think about asking those trolls, demi-humans or even dragons to help. Because in the impression of the big tree guard, neither the mountain demon nor the demihumans were worthy of entering the royal city of Rodel, let alone relying on the power of the one who broke into the royal city of Rodel and caused heavy casualties to his companions was the great ancient dragon Gulan Sanks, so the option of Akil and the dragon soldiers never appeared in his mind from the beginning. "Sir Fernandi, this is no longer a border area. Perhaps we should put aside those previous prejudices and face and tolerate them with a new attitude. And judging from the performance of Aqil and the dragon soldiers, they are also He did not show any dissatisfaction with surrendering to the Golden Tree." Kenneth Hyde carefully chose his words and suggested to the big tree guard. Roland's eyes lit up, and Kenneth's words instantly expanded his horizons. Only this nobleman who dared to hire a group of demi-humans to guard Hyde Fortress in the border area could think of letting the mountain demon and flying dragon serve him. Because there has been no need to dispatch Yaqir and dragon soldiers recently, Roland almost forgot about these two big guys who were full of food and sleep. However, he looked at the big tree guard, not sure how the golden tree guard would respond to Kenneth Hyde's proposal. The face of the big tree guard showed tangle and opposition. He frowned tightly, and there was a war between heaven and man in his heart. Finally, he sighed and nodded to Kenneth Hyde: "Perhaps your point of view is right, Kenneth Hyde of Nimgofu. Just like my companions who are willing to accept and learn the power of the ancient dragon, Maybe I should also change my previously stubborn views. A stagnant view cannot bring new changes and possibilities to the golden tree. As long as these mountain monsters, hybrids, or flying dragons in your mouth, as long as they don't know how to If you threaten the Golden Tree, I won’t have any objections.” Roland then spoke: "In that case, leave it to me to make arrangements for Yaqir and the dragon soldiers. Fernandi, you and Lord Edgar will discuss the selection of patrol soldiers." "Since Lord Roland and Lord Kenneth Hyde have said so, I will give those hybrids some trust. However, I personally still reserve my opinion on hybrids and do not think they can take on the important task of patrolling." Edgar said slightly. Shaking his head, he had no particular objection to letting Troll Knights or Flying Dragons patrol, but he had 1 objections to those hybrids who promoted the betrayal of Morn City and caused bloody massacres. "That's it. Today's meeting is over first. If you have any questions, please stay and come to me. Others can go back first." Roland had finished what he wanted to say and waved his hand to indicate that everyone could leave. Edgar, the big tree guard and Kenneth Hyde stayed. Jonson Bloodhoof also stayed because he wanted to talk to Kenneth Hyde about the Human Kingdom Alliance later. Just when Roland was about to say something to Edgar, a soldier from the Royal Army suddenly walked into the city lord's hall and said: "Report to Lord Roland that two elven women who are suspected of being assassins are fighting with the Homeless Knight in Morn City. Lord White engages in battle.” "Ok?" Chapter 56: "He once brought me light" Time goes back slightly to when Roland and the others just started their meeting. The two lords' personal guards from the Songyue Dynasty, Jerolul and Horascus, finally arrived in Morn City. Of course, they still looked like slightly ordinary village girls. In order not to arouse suspicion, they even paid money to set off with a caravan that was heading to Morn City. After all, not just any village girl could walk such a long distance without any problems, nor was she a certain French saint girl next door, so of course the two of them had to pretend to follow the local customs. "You two girls, Moren City has arrived." The captain of the caravan came to the carriage where the two elves were and reminded them. Although the caravan captain is white-haired, he may actually be no more than one-fifth of the age of Jerolul and Horascus. "Thank you for your hospitality along the way. This is the remaining half of the deposit as agreed." Jie Luoluer blinked, took out a bag of money and took out a dozen copper coins. After counting the number to confirm that it was correct, Put it into the old man's hand.
After carefully counting, the old man nodded with peace of mind, and then asked with some curiosity: "I asked you two girls, why do you have to walk such a long way to Moen City? Could it be that you are also here to defect to the Golden Dynasty?" "Little...ahem, grandpa, are you saying that you have sent people to Moren City before us?" Jerolul subconsciously wanted to call the caravan captain "little ghost head", but fortunately she realized He came over and quickly changed his words with a dry cough. The old businessman nodded: "Yes, I have given away many helpless people and watched them drag their families and families to Moren City to seek life. But people like you who look relaxed and have no worries about their future life, I This is the first time I’ve seen it.” Then the old businessman said softly: "Of course, if you two have something to hide, you don't have to tell me. Everyone has a secret, right? But I can see in the past few days that you two are kind-hearted children, so you shouldn't come here. Do something bad. Otherwise, I would have sent a warning to the Golden Dynasty even if I had to risk my own life just now." Jerolur and Horasgus looked at each other. They never expected to miss this point. It seems that no matter which race they are, those who can live to old age are not easy to fool. .
