175. The Lord of Miracles (Part 1)
The sky was gray, which seemed to indicate the coming heavy rainstorm.
In the center of the original Pandatang, there is a small town with a large size and a large population.
This town has no name. Even on the map hidden by the lord, it is just a red dot that shows that there is such a small town.
The town is not like Hongye Town, where there are very distinctive red maple fruit wines that can be sold, but the town is better than the fertile land around it and the climate is not as cold as the southern part of the world. Therefore, the town can plant plants three times a year, but the last planting after autumn harvest is usually just a little bit of a little bit of it. So when Pandaling was not abandoned, the townsmen usually planted a large number of easy-to-sell crops during spring plowing, leaving them for their own use, and then saving some money through sales to help supplement taxes in summer and autumn, while the autumn harvest is used to cope with winter taxes.
Only the last harvest of planting is what townspeople can really retain. So usually, they will plant what they like and store it for a good winter. Of course, those with the ability and skills will use these plantings to brew some wine or make some dry food that can be stored for a longer time, and then send it to the most prosperous town for sale.
But now, the villagers of the town no longer need to be so nervous about living like this.
Because since the loss of the lord's rule, the townspeople no longer need to pay taxes to anyone. Their harvest belongs entirely to their own. The excess parts are a good choice whether they are spared or sold. The most important thing is that they are lucky. They do not have the same fate as Red Leaf Town and have a mercenary group, nor do they have the whole town become a purgatory on earth like Dabron Town.
The relationship between the townsmen and this mercenary group is really good. Many young and middle-aged people are even happy to join this mercenary group instead of re-forming a so-called militia group. So I heard that Hongye Town built a militia group and fought with the mercenary group several times, these townsmen would laugh. Even if the commander of their militia group was a veteran who had experienced two wars, so what?
Isn't it the same thing being crushed?
Whenever this happens, the townsmen will sincerely praise their mayor. If their mayor had not invited this mercenary group with excellent praise, I am afraid that sooner or later, their town will be like Red Leaf Town and Dabron Town, which is truly terrible.
As for the lord appointed by Valkyrie of the Principality of Ryan?
Hi, who cares!
I have not had a lord in the past year, so hasn't it been like this? But if it were said, they would have to thank the Valkyrie, because if it weren't for the Valkyrie, their town would not have been so relaxed and free now.
The wind slightly brings a hint of coolness in the sultry heat.
A young man wearing heavy armor and carrying a thick-ridged heavy sword in one hand broke into the outside of the town. The heavy armor on the man was not the ordinary full-body armor, but a set of armor composed of upper body armor, shoulder guards, skirt armor, leg guards and heavy boots. Because this armor is made of body shape, it is slightly worse than the heavy armor in terms of protection, but it is lighter in weight. However, even if the weight is slightly reduced, this set of armor still weighs hundreds of pounds, not to mention the thick-ridged heavy sword he held in his hand, which was particularly thickened and heavy for slashing.
But looking at the young man's actions, he didn't seem to feel the heavy weight of these objects on his body.
He walked as fast as the wind. Several mercenaries who were patrolling the town with long spears were still at the gate of the town when they first met the young man. When they called out the deputy commander, the young man left only one figure to face them.
"The deputy leader Flod ran so fast, could it be that there was something urgent again, right?" a mercenary asked, looking at the young man's back.
"It should be." Another slightly older mercenary pondered, "The last time I saw the deputy regiment commander, Dabron's bunny came over. Could it be that something happened to Dabron again this time?"
"Probably not?" The third mercenary frowned. There was a scar on his face, but it didn't look hideous. "We had fought hard with Dabron's bunny before. They were completely defeated by us in that battle. How could they do it again?... Even if we really had to start the war again, it would not be at this time, how long will it take for the last war end."
But if it weren't for war, then what would have made their deputy commander so anxious?
A man named Flod quickly crossed the entire town like a gust of wind and came to a house.
This house is nothing strange. It is the most sparse and ordinary house in the town. However, since the mercenary group called the Sword of Brave came here, the house has become much lively, and people from the town often come here to visit. They are not saying that there is something urgent, but they just think that when they come here to see the leader and deputy leader of this mercenary group, they always feel much more stable, so it has become a custom over time.
"Captain!" Flod pushed open the door and strode towards the living room.
At this time, there were three people sitting in the living room. In addition to the commander of the Sword of the Brave, there was another one who was the mayor of the town, and the last one was the wealthy businessman in the town. Since the Sword of the Brave came to this town, this wealthy businessman has become the logistics manager of the mercenary group. Naturally, he has the ability, because he alone can complete the arms replacement of the entire mercenary group. This coordination ability can definitely be regarded as a talent.
The three of them saw Flod breaking in with a hurry, and the three of them who were originally talking and laughing immediately became serious.
"Dabron's bunny fight again?" The mayor whispered with his beard and stared at him, "I suffered a defeat last time, and I dared to come this time!"
"No." Flod shook his head.
"It's not that Dabron's group of people came over again, why are you doing so anxious?" The rich businessman looked surprised.
In fact, these people cannot be blamed for making mistakes, because the last time Flod ran back, Dabron had already arrived a kilometer outside the town. As a result, the fortifications were not even enough to unfold, so he was forced to fight in a hasty way. At the beginning, the town was naturally at a disadvantage, because Dabron actually pulled out a unit of nearly two thousand people to attack the town. However, with the concerted efforts of the Sword of Brave and the townsmen of the town, Dabron was defeated.
In this battle, both sides suffered serious losses.
In the end, only one thousand people left for Dabron's troops left, and the Sword of Brave had a scale of more than 1,000 people, and even the townsmen paid a certain amount of casualties. This is the real pain in the town, because the town relies on the way of harvesting crops, and suddenly it has reduced a lot of young and middle-aged people, which naturally affected the town to a great extent. Although it was not completely abandoned, it would take at least several years to recover.
"Yes, it's the problem with Red Leaf Town." Flod breathed heavily and calmed his disordered breathing before speaking, "Red Leaf Town has announced that it has been ruled by the new lord. Moreover, that Habind mercenary group was completely annihilated by the new lord's army and the militia group of Red Leaf Town!"
"What!"
"You mean to completely annihilate? Not defeat?"
The mayor and the wealthy businessman of the town immediately made a shocking voice.
Although the Harbind Snake and the others have never seen it, they have heard that although the scale of this mercenary group is much smaller than before in the northern region, it is said that many lords are still willing to hire this mercenary group because they are cold-blooded. The leader of the Sword of Brave once admitted that it would be better not to provoke this mercenary group if it is not necessary. It is not that it cannot be defeated, but it will be very difficult. Five hundred of them can exert the combat power of thousands of people, and it is really meaningless to just defeat this mercenary group.
But now, this mercenary group was not defeated, but completely annihilated?
How is this possible!
"Where did you get this news?" asked the commander of the heroic sword sitting in the middle of the hall.
"It was heard from Hongye Town. It is said that the end of this battle was seven days ago. Black Swan Castle seems to have been in the reconstruction work. Hongye Town has begun to organize trade caravans, and the first trade caravan has also set off." Frod replied, "I got this news from those travelers. Now many travelers are starting to run there. After all, red maple fruit wine is still very popular."
The commander of the Sword of Brave frowned, as if he was thinking about something.
The mayor and the rich businessman were stunned and seemed a little sane. For civilians like them, the powerful shadow of the lord has completely penetrated into their bones. Even if they can't do anything to them for a while now, it doesn't mean they really can't do anything in the future. Moreover, this lord can easily annihilate the Habind Snake, which makes them even more worried.
"Captain Alvin, what should I do... what should I do?" The mayor was a little panicked.
Hearing the mayor's words, the young man named Alvin was slightly stunned and then laughed: "Master, this town belongs to this lord in name. If we choose not to obey the order, it is equivalent to rebellion. This lord is fully qualified to use some extreme means... This town is not as good as Red Leaf Town. If a large amount of young and middle-aged labor is lost, this town will be completely abandoned."
"Then we should obey the rule of the new lord now?" When the wealthy businessman said this, his tone was a little unwilling.
He finally got a chance to show his strength. Under the current circumstances, he is the real third person in the town, second only to the commander and deputy commander of the Sword of Brave. Even the mayor of the town is not as powerful as him. This made the wealthy businessman who was always called a nouveau riche in the past feel extremely satisfied. But as if he was returned to the rule of the new lord, all order will return to track. At that time, he will still be his nouveau riche, and it is impossible to be as glorious as he is now.
Some people, once their mentality changes, many things and opinions will also change.
Facing the words of this wealthy businessman, Aiwen did not choose to answer. Even if he is respected now, he is just an outsider. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to overestimate the situation in the future development of this town. All this can only be borne by the villagers of the town themselves.
"I heard that this lord has miracles, and it seems to be a god-fellow." Flod seemed a little stubborn. He did not notice the strange atmosphere in the hall at the moment. "It is said that Habind would lose at that time because the lord showed some miracle power and then killed Habind... and there seemed to be a powerful magician around this lord."
