Chapter 172 (2/2)
”The darbrorn bunnies are calling again?” The mayor snorted with a beard and eyes, ”I lost the battle last time, and I dare to come this time!”
”No.” Fred shook his head.
”It's not the Da brohn group calling again. Why are you in such a hurry?” The rich businessman looked surprised.
In fact, these people can't be blamed for making a mistake, because the last time Fred came back, dabron had already arrived one kilometer outside the town. As a result, the fortifications had no time to start, so he was forced to rush into the battle. At first, the town fell into a disadvantage, because dabron actually pulled out an army of nearly 2000 people to attack the town, but later, with the concerted efforts of the heroic sword and the town people, dabron was defeated.
Both sides suffered serious losses in this war.
In the end, there were only about 1000 people left in dabron's 2000 troops, and the original scale of more than 1000 people of the heroic sword was sharply reduced, leaving less than 600 people. Even the town people paid a certain degree of casualties. This is the most painful place for the town, because the town develops by harvesting crops and suddenly reduces many young adults, which naturally affects the town to a great extent. Although it is not completely abandoned, it will take at least several years to recover.
”Yes, it's the problem in Hongye town.” After taking a big breath and calming the disordered breathing, Fred said, ”red leaf town has been declared to be under the rule of the new Lord. Moreover, the habinder mercenary regiment was completely annihilated by the army of the new Lord and the militia regiment of Hongye town! ”
”What!”
”You mean total annihilation? Not defeat? ”
The mayor of the town and the rich businessman immediately made a startled voice.
Although they have not seen the snake of habind, they have also heard of it. Although the scale of this mercenary regiment is much smaller than that in the north, it is said that many lords are still willing to hire this mercenary regiment because they are cold-blooded. The head of the heroic sword once said frankly that if it's not necessary, it's better not to provoke the mercenary regiment. It's not that they can't fight, but it will be very difficult. Their 500 people can play the combat effectiveness of thousands of people, and it's meaningless to just defeat the mercenary regiment.
But now, this mercenary regiment was not defeated, but completely annihilated?
How is this possible!
”Where did you get the news?” The head of the heroic sword sitting in the middle of the hall asked.
”It came from Hongye town. It is said that the end of the war was seven days ago. It seems that black swan castle is also in the process of reconstruction. Hongye town has begun to organize trade caravans, and the first trade caravan has set out.” Floyd replied, ”I got the news from the connoisseurs. Now many connoisseurs are running there. After all, red maple wine is still very popular.”
The head of the heroic sword frowned, as if thinking about something.
The mayor and the rich businessman were stunned and seemed a little distracted. For civilians like them, the powerful shadow of the Lord has completely penetrated into their bones. Even if there is no way to take them now, it doesn't mean there will be no way in the future. Moreover, the Lord can easily annihilate the snake of habinder, which makes them even more worried.
”Captain Elvin, what... What should I do?” The mayor panicked.
Hearing the mayor's words, the young man named Elvin was stunned and then lost his smile: ”mayor, this town belongs to the Lord in name. If we choose not to obey orders, it will be tantamount to rebellion. The Lord is fully qualified to use some extreme means This town is no better than Hongye town. If we lose a lot of young and middle-aged labor, this town will be completely abandoned. ”
”So now, should we obey the rule of the new Lord?” When the rich merchant said this, his tone was somewhat unwilling.
He finally got a chance to show his hands and feet. Under the current situation, he is the real third person in the whole town, second only to the head and deputy head of the heroic sword. Even the mayor of the town has no higher power than him, which makes the rich businessmen who were always said to be upstarts feel a great satisfaction. However, just like returning to the rule of the new Lord, all order will return to the track. At that time, he can only be his upstart, and he can't have the scenery he has now.
Some people, once their mentality changes, many things, opinions and decisions will change.
In the face of the rich businessman's words, Elvin did not choose to answer. Even if he is respected again, he is just an outsider. Therefore, it is related to the future development of the town. Elvin must not be replaced. All this can only be borne by the villagers of the town.
”It's said that the Lord still has miracles. It seems that he is a god dependent.” Freud seemed to have a few tendons. He was completely unaware of the strange atmosphere in the hall. ”It is said that habinder would lose at that time because the Lord showed some miraculous power, and then he killed habinder And there seems to be a powerful magician around the Lord. ”
For a time, the atmosphere in the whole hall became more depressed（ To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly ticket at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
