Chapter 67: Retainers

Text] Chapter 67 Retainers——

Li Jiawang looked at the respectful Behrman for a while and said calmly, "You are the leader of this tribe, then ask your people to put down their weapons and surrender!"

"Yes, sir," Bellman replied respectfully, and then shouted to the tribesmen next to him, "Put down your weapons! Your lord will not hurt us." The people of the Bell tribe looked at Bellman with doubtful faces.

It was as if they didn't know him. They didn't understand how the leader, who had always been strong, could be so cowardly today. Could it be that the other party had cast a spell on the leader.

Although he was very dissatisfied with Behrman's order to lay down his weapons, and even complained in his heart, under the majesty of Behrman, the leader who had saved his tribe several times, he still cursed and put down the weapon in his hand.

The weapons were still on the ground. After a "bang" sound of weapons falling to the ground, all the people of the Bell tribe turned into tigers without claws and lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

Seeing how respectful Behrman was to him, Li Jiawang was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this stubborn person in Haas's eyes would be so obedient in front of him. However, Li Jiawang didn't think much about it and asked his subordinates to give them some food and put them away.

He was temporarily detained in a temporary camp, and then brought Behrman to the temporary tent.

In the big tent, Li Jiawang asked Behrman, who looked respectful, in a suspicious tone, "Why didn't you go to the Emerald Valley with the main force of the Haas army, but stayed ten miles away?"

"Because I had a premonition that it was dangerous to be with them, and I wanted to leave here immediately. At first, I couldn't openly disobey the general's order, so I stayed ten miles away from them, ready to escape at any time. I didn't expect that your lord would move so fast.

Before I knew it, the adults had already surrounded us." Bellman answered every question from the teacher honestly like a primary school student.

"Oh, then why did you surrender so honestly instead of trying to resist or negotiate terms with me? This is not in line with your previous character!" Li Jiawang continued to ask the doubts in his heart.

"I don't want our tribe to suffer unnecessary casualties."

"Then aren't you afraid that I will kill you all after you lay down your weapons?"

"Don't be afraid, I have a feeling you won't."

"What a sharp premonition. He is really a genius who practices astrology. It's a pity that he is not my confidant. Otherwise, letting him practice astrology would be of great help to him." Li Jiawang secretly thought that while they were talking, a messenger suddenly

He entered the tent and said to Li Jiawang, "Sir, Haas and those dozen leaders have been captured by the brothers of the Guards."

Hearing this, Behrman was shocked. The last fantasy in his heart immediately disappeared. Li Jiawang looked at Behrman who was in a daze with a smile.

After a while, Haas and a dozen leaders were tied up and brought into the tent. Seeing this scene, Li Jiawang immediately shouted to the soldiers, "How can you treat them like this! Why don't you untie them quickly?"

.”

After Haas and others were released, they quickly thanked Li Jiawang, but Li Jiawang did not appreciate it and said with a victor's attitude, "You have two ways now. One is to surrender to me to gain the right to survive, and at the same time you must obey my orders and cooperate."

And my job, the second is not to surrender, then you go to see the God of War immediately! I will cut off the flesh on your body piece by piece, and let you slowly die while enjoying the pain."

Hearing Li Jiawang's threats, everyone felt disgusted. This was too outrageous! Can't they be more tactful? They knew that when they abandoned their soldiers and ran away alone, they were sentenced to death by Li Jiawang. If they didn't surrender, they would die immediately.

, after surrender has no use value, it will also die in an accident.

On the one hand, death leaves this beautiful world, and on the other hand, survival continues to breathe the beautiful air of this world. These cowards and cowards immediately chose to surrender without thinking. In their view, everything is illusory, and only living is real.

Really.

I'll let you live a little longer just because you know each other. Li Jiawang secretly thought, and took out a dozen diluted gene y-o agents from the Qiankun Ring, and said to Haas and others in a gloomy tone, "You will

Once it drinks, it becomes mine."

Everyone looked at each other, then helplessly took the bottle with their hands, closed their eyes and drank a bottle of gene y-o agent in one gulp. There was no pain as expected, only a warm feeling in the abdomen.

Looking at their worried expressions, Li Jiawang explained, "Don't worry! This is not poison. I just want to kill you with a knife. Why waste so much poison! This is a drug that improves physical fitness. It only needs a knife to kill you."

It will be good for your body, but if you don’t drink the second bottle after two months, it will become highly toxic, and your internal blood will be slowly corroded."

Hearing Li Jiawang's words, Haas and the others' faces turned white and red. They were filled with anger but did not dare to express it. They could only hold it in their hearts.

"You are worried. As long as you serve me well during these two months, there will be no problem. Okay, you go down and rest! I will assign tasks to you tomorrow." Li Jiawang said lightly.

After dozens of soldiers came in from outside and took Haas and others away, only Li Jiawang and Behrman were left in the tent. After a moment of silence, Behrman was the first to break the silence and said, "Sir, what are you going to do with us?"

"

"Do you want your tribe to replace the Sith tribe and become the largest barbarian tribe in Haisen Territory?" Li Jiawang did not answer Behrman's question, but suddenly asked.

"Of course I do," Behrman replied without thinking. He knew that any dishonesty and hypocrisy in front of this lord might cause his tribe to lose an opportunity to rise to prominence.

Li Jiawang was very satisfied with Behrman's honesty and continued, "I'll help you, what can you give me?"

"All the barbarians in Haishen Territory only obey the orders of one person."

"Not enough. Without you, the barbarians in Haishen Territory would still obey my orders."

After hesitating for a while, Bellman seemed to have made up his mind and said firmly, "I am willing to sign a contract with you on behalf of the Bell tribe to become a retainer of your family and serve your family from generation to generation."

Hearing this, Li Jiawang was shocked. He didn't expect Behrman to be so determined, but he still asked doubtfully, "Can you represent the entire tribe?"

"Yes, I have a letter of appointment from the tribal elders. I can make any treaty with anyone. The tribe will abide by everything that involves the tribe." Bellman said confidently. He is the tenth member of the Bell tribe among tens of thousands of people.

The patriarch who was awarded this honor.

Li Jiawang was stunned. This Bellman was not simple. How much power he was granted. He must have some extraordinary talents. Otherwise, the tribal elders would not be able to put the survival or death of a tribe on one person. Thinking of Bellman's accurate

Li Jiawang felt a little relieved when he had a premonition.

Retainers are a special vassal relationship on the Star Continent that all big families and royal families are willing to use. The reason why they respect retainers is because retainers are more reassuring and trustworthy than ordinary retainers. Becoming a member of a family

Retainers, that means that everyone in your family will work for them in the future and cannot betray them. No matter whether the master's family is poor or rich, strong or weak, they must be loyal to it from generation to generation until the master's family

The treaty is terminated voluntarily, or there are no direct descendants in the main line of the host family.

Of course, there are so many restrictions on retainers, and there are also many benefits. Otherwise, who would be stupid enough to do it! Retainers can gain the trust of the master's family and can rely on the master's power to expand their own power.

He will only encourage and appreciate, and will not be as jealous as he is towards ordinary ministers, because retainers will not back up their opinions. The retainer's power is his own power, and the retainer's strength is his own strength.

Therefore, the great nobles and royal families always look for families with potential and value to accept as retainers. But they will not accept them casually, because they have the obligation to protect their retainers and give them wealth, rights, and land. If they cannot fulfill their duties, they will not accept them casually.

The retainer has the right to terminate the treaty on his own initiative.

The new emperor of the Guangming Empire, the most powerful country on the mainland, was able to ascend to the throne because of the great help from his mother's family and his retainers. I thought that the new emperor was forced by the eldest prince to seek refuge in other countries, and other ministers

The nobles and nobles ignored him, and only those retainers followed him wholeheartedly. No matter how bad the situation was, and how many elites died in their families, they never wavered. They stayed with the new emperor to protect him from enemies.

He used his sword to destroy the enemies who wanted to kill him one by one, and used the blood of his family's elites to save the new emperor's life.

How many times have they faced the enemy's sword fights, how many times have they faced the enemy's money and beauty, they always abide by their family's oath to protect the new emperor, even if they are afraid that members of their own family will die or their family will disappear.

In the long history, they will not say a word of complaint, because that is the foundation and foundation of their existence in this world. Once they break their promise, they will be ridiculed by all the families in the mainland. For noble families like them,

It's unbearable.

It was precisely because of the protection of these retainers that the new emperor was able to escape the ten years of suffering in foreign countries and finally ascend to the throne of the emperor. Those who protected his family also received corresponding rewards, and each of them became the great nobles and nobles of the Bright Empire.

Your Majesty's trusted ministers have gained great power and supreme honor.

Their deeds were also widely spread on the mainland by wandering poets, which made people praise them. It also made those ambitious families look for valuable small families to become their retainers.

To sum it up in one sentence, retainers are a unified body connected with the interests of the master's family. One will be prosperous and the other will suffer.

Li Jiawang thought for a while and said in a calm tone, "No, you are not qualified to be my retainer, Li Jiawang, because of the Bell tribe." dd
