Chapter 1503 From the Brotherhood to the Knights of Dawn
At that time, the mercenary group, which had originally only about one hundred people, instantly expanded to a scale of a thousand people. In that chaotic and chaotic world where wars were chaotic, this was already a considerable force.
Of course, since this group was neither recognized by the Great Church nor the edict of the Auckland Emperor (there was no legal Auckland Emperor back then), nor any oracles, revelations, angels coming, etc., the Ironbra Brotherhood was still just a mercenary group that could not call itself a "Knights". However, during its three years of establishment, what it did was even more knights than most knights.
Of course, they also took on mercenary tasks, but they only took on those wandering tribes that attacked robbers, attacked vicious monsters, attacked goblins and kowtows, collected precious materials, escorted goods or escorted important personnel, etc. In short, these are particularly glorious tasks that only make reputation and justice values. However, those special money-making tasks, such as suppressing the people, assassinating political enemies, and wars between lords, will never participate. In addition, if you encounter a person in distress, whether it is a refugee, a village, a defeated soldier or aristocrat, they will do their best to help. Therefore, they will help the citizens build roads and bridges, open up land and farm for poor farmers, and find precious medicinal materials for seriously ill people to go to the mountains to find precious medicinal materials. There are also many free work such as completely unmatched with mercenaries.
In short, rather than being a mercenary group, they are now becoming more and more like a group of volunteers who are very good at fighting. Moreover, since the leader of the group is a bad guy, he often decides to pay free rewards for guests with just one stroke. If it weren't for his deputy leader, magic consultant, non-staff member and girlfriend, they are still considered a Hadley, even if they are not considered a financial management wise, they are still considered an average. This will not make this hero Parn who is gradually known to everyone. The background of Xihuan is still called Parn Knight. After being a good person does good deeds, he will not be left with only a pair of underwear and sleeping naked on the streets.
The group will have the style of the group leader. If you really expect to make a name for yourself with a little military merit in troubled times, then Parn's Tiebra Brotherhood is destined to be the place for those ambitious war wild dogs. However, this "volunteer group" that is incompatible with the troubled times has naturally eliminated all kinds of speculators and ambitious people. The common goals, common ideals, and even common daydreams can burst out with shining power. However, the goal of unity is only one aspect of cohesion and combat effectiveness. Any organizational group, especially large organizations with an increasing number of people, has a perfect organizational structure, and a distinctive and executable discipline.
In that year, the Tiebra Brotherhood received a station called Valan Fortress, which also became a must-visit place for knights to tour in the future. In this small fortress, Knous Vandimathia, the members called the "Ghost Deputy Chief" by the members, began to formulate the so-called "Brotherhood Laws".
Knous was the second son of the Marquis of Dimashia, and the tutor was a priest of the goddess of trial and justice, and it was actually quite simple for him to formulate the provisions and regulations of the law. At that time, Pahn actually supported the other party quite well. Even if he was naturally as stupid as he knew that when there were fewer people, he could still discuss with each other, but when there were more people, there must be iron discipline and a system of clear rewards and punishments.
It goes without saying that the standard rules such as the standard rules of obedience, the indiscriminate killing of innocent people, the indiscriminate rape and robbery, etc., Pahn, who originally wanted to establish a "volunteer" team, certainly would not express his objection. It was the last rule that really caused the conflict between him and Knous.
"Don't leave the organization! Be a member of the League for one day and be a member of the League for life!"
"Knous believes that the Tiebra Brotherhood should not be just an organization that does good deeds. The heroic and righteousness can only help people for a while, but cannot help for a lifetime, and it cannot completely end this turbulent era. If you want to become the light of dawn that tear through the dark chaos, the Brotherhood must have the steel discipline of obeying orders. On the day you join, such a group must read the laws of the Brotherhood and swear the loyalty of the organization. Since everyone has accepted it, it means that you have also accepted all the strict groups.
Team rules. How can you let you come and leave whenever you say it? Otherwise, wouldn’t you be together by your so-called ambition alone beating every family?” At this point, Feratiel pondered for a moment and smiled: “Your teacher’s inspiration legion is such a so-called every family company organization. So after suffering a few blows, it basically couldn’t be maintained. Now that I think about it, I really understand what Knous did back then. You have also established a guerrilla association, right? Don’t make the mistakes of your predecessors again.”
"The Guerrilla Association is a civil police organization. Although it is also a disciplined force, its nature is closer to the volunteer association. There is no grand ambition to end the troubled times and bring dawn. It is not as good as asking for swearing allegiance. Of course, there are discipline requirements, but there are no particularly strict terms. If you want to withdraw, just apply for reasons in advance. And according to the year of service, there is also a pension, you want to find a second job, and the future Chamber of Commerce and Siren Chamber of Commerce are waiting. We have always been a professional humanitarian enterprise operation." Qifeng shrugged and then added: "Everyone is a greenhouse flower living in a glorious era of peace and prosperity, and it is different from people in troubled times."
"Ha... this organizational structure was established by Lu Xina. If he had been born a thousand years ago, he might have found a better solution. However, at that time, there was indeed a fierce debate between Parn and Knous around the last one. Parn believed that the Brotherhood was an organization that everyone was in a similar mood and was willing to fight for a common goal. However, dreams cannot be forced. Most people give up because of reality, but it is normal for everyone to get together and part. Even the gods will be shaken and fearful. We mortals will not be sure that tomorrow will be as firm as today. Why force others to force others?"
"He is indeed a naive person!" Jifeng sighed, as if he wanted to laugh, but with unconcealed three-point respect.
"Who said no? But everyone likes this naive guy, right?" Philatir shrugged: "Besides, he just keeps his unchanging innocent heart forever, not a pedantic fool who knows life or death."
A pedantic fool who doesn't know how to live or die has a special term called "Holy Mother's Bitch". If Paine is the kind of "I can't understand the above commands, so I will never obey the orders", "Why should there be such strict rules, this is a trampling on freedom and human rights", "The enemy is also human enemies, and there are joys, sorrows, sorrows, and parents, wives and children. I can't take action", "I can't kill people, and I'll kill people, and there's no difference from others without gods", then he is probably this type of type. If this type of guy still can't die on the battlefield, he will definitely become the protagonist of various teenagers' comics in District 11.
Of course, in a normal story, Pahn, as the protagonist, is actually a decisive and decisive person. He never can't stop him from encountering those who deserve to be killed. And he, who claims to be face-blind, has never been ruthless to those enemies with beautiful faces. He is also very clear that a team with combat effectiveness must have a team with iron discipline and clear rewards and punishments, and also supports the passage of the "Brotherhood Law".
...The only one is this last one.
Firatir continued: "Knous's idea is harsh, but it cannot be said to be unreasonable. An idealized team requires strict or even cruel rules, otherwise its ideal will become a castle in the air. But Paine believes that no matter how big an ideal a person has, there is no qualification to impose it on others; people can have ideals, but they also have the qualification to give up because of reality. Using severe punishment and law to coerce others to continue to follow. This is a cult, not a fraternity."
"What's the end?" Jifeng asked with interest. Of course, she did not ask where the "Brotherhood Laws" are going. This orthodox historical book records very clearly. The last law was finally changed to "not allowed to leave the team without authorization". To put it bluntly, resignation and retirement are OK, but the senior leaders of the Brotherhood must agree. This should be the result of the compromise between Parn and Knous. However, in all orthodox historical books, there is no record of their conflict.
"In the end, the two of them quarreled for the first time, and began to greet each other for the first time. Finally, they picked up the knife, but I stopped them. So they clenched their fists and went to the martial arts field to sweat freely for an entire hour, and also removed more than five ribs of each other. So they all lay down and couldn't move anymore, and greeted each other a few more cursing words, and finally decided to take a step back... Haha, man!"
"Well, that's how men are!" Jifeng said he really couldn't agree with more.
"In other words, did Parn and Knous have conflicts at that time?"
Feratiel glanced at Jifeng, then showed a sarcastic smile: "Yes, under normal circumstances, this is the future development of things. Everyone should think so. But, you shouldn't be like this, right?"
Jifeng nodded: "There are no conflicts at all, only friends who are drinking and meat. Even if two people talk about love, they often quarrel, let alone two people who work hard for a common goal? If they are really as praised in history and legends, they are big-minded and broad-minded and broad-minded husbands, they should understand this truth even more."
"Of course they understand this truth. In fact, as the organization gradually expands, their reputation becomes more and more famous and their status becomes higher and higher, the conflicts between them become more and more. However, no matter how fierce the conflicts are or even the root causes, they can be solved by one blow. If they can't solve them, they will be beaten twice. However, no matter how many bones they have removed each other, on the battlefield, facing the enemy that can be dealt with by swords, or against those enemies disguised as friends on the battlefield, they all calmly left their backs to each other, which was unreserved trust. We can all understand this feeling."
"Of course, and what makes me proud is that I have many candidates in this regard." Jifeng smiled.
"I know there are many unofficial history and rumors that Parn and Knous have long since disappeared, but are just political collaborators who maintain a harmonious face. This is not surprising. If a great man who does not even have any rumor and spreads rumors, he must not be a real great man. We comrades who have witnessed the entire Qiming War can fully prove that those two are true friends of life and death! They are friends with like-mindedness and comrades who are loyal to each other! When Parn was seriously injured and Knous went through hardships comparable to those heroes of the ancient mythology era and finally won the heart of the Holy Spring for him, I thought there would be a proverb like "Parn and Knous" in the future."
"However, there is no such proverb." Qifeng said quietly: "Does this mean that this great friendship will not end in the end, right?"
"The Knight Paine died of the betrayal of the vows and the bewitching of Bellatmeya, and there is no doubt that it was said that when Paine was dying, we were all present. He personally asked to hand over the Heart of Dawn to Knous, and at the same time the Tiebra Brotherhood... Well, at that time, the Knights of Dawn had already handed over the position of the Grand Commander to Knous. We all agree with this. Knous did avenge him. Now history has proved that he has indeed realized Paine's ideal and redeemed the prosperity and peace of the world! He is the most perfect comrade and successor, and it is understandable!"
"You are avoiding my question." Jifeng said incisively: "I am not a textual madman who searches for chapters and sentences. I have to dig out the history of that year, which has no meaning to the glorious era established by Emperor Knous. If I were on weekdays, I would turn my head and leave now... However, these truths hidden in various records and legends have been related to this day! My man has been missing for almost a long time, because of these sequelae that have been left for more than a thousand years!"
"...I can't guarantee that what I see is the truth. Even so, do you want to know?"
"It's better than knowing nothing."
"Well, my feeling is beginning to change, the man named Seodoro Van Gruth, from the moment he joined the Knights of Dawn..."
"Seodoro? That founding hero of the Holy Spring Dynasty, that 'Purple-clothed Prime Minister'?"
"He was called the think tank of Emperor Knous. After the founding of the Holy Spring Dynasty, he served as prime minister for ten years until he died in office. However, you don't think it is strange that such a man who can be called the head of the founding heroes has only the baron who cannot be hereditary?"
