Those daain-
Jon was in despair
A spherical lead bullet hit his thigh The pain caused hiround instantly
Seeing the group of ain surrounded him, he couldn’t bear to close his eyes
He knew that he never had the power to defeat this group of robbers
But he couldn’t just watch these robbers get aith the wagon!
He was theWater Port This was his duty!
It was also the responsibility of other militias
But they were afraid
The nuht times that of the bandits But, the uns None of them dared to step forward!
Because everyone was afraid of death No one wanted to die first
So Jon realized that he must act Even if he would be knocked dohen he took a move, he needed to act i Water Port’sWater Portthe robber If the neere spread, the whole world would think that these militias raised these robbers themselves Those business caravans would blame them and claiotiate and not pay, it would affect the reputation of Freezing Water Port and even their roup’s reputation
As asoon!
If they were entangled with this trouble, it would pose a serious problem!
Would the lord listen to their explanation? Once he saw the price compensation bill, the lord would drive the er!
With that said, it could be the best outcoht be beheaded too!
This was by no roundless worry…
because this did not happen for the first tiroup of robbers appeared out of nowhere They had already robbed Freezing Water Port for the second tiroup of robbers with rifled guns andWater Port to plunder their town once
At that tiround They went up and confronted the robber group
As a result, they lost five lives The old captain suffered two shots, one in the abdomen and one in the shoulder He died three days later
As a border city, Freezing Water Port was home to only the Silver Sire Church
But it just so happened that the Silver Sire Church’s pastor was the greediest pastor aht Deity’s pastor
These pastors had no other shortcoentle towards civilians and never oppressed the forin the worldhuy In addition to collecting money, the Silver Sire Church also required the priests to spend a lot ofin the pastors’ hands
The cost of treating lead bullets was even five ti severed liunshot wounds in the abdomen With two shots in the flesh, the final h to put people in despair
The old captain didn’t pay the money in the end, so he died
So, Jon became the new militia captain
He felt that the old captain died horribly
He shouldn’t die here
It was simply humiliation
The old captain was a veteran of the October War He had superb military swordsainst Chilly Austere Dukedom and survived
The old captain retired and returned to his hometown to serve as the captain to train the new o crazy after drinking, Jon loved him dearly
Because Jon also hoped that he could become a frontline soldier one day
He hoped that the old captain could teach him some secret techniques and tell hiiment story
But every time the old captain heard his request like this, the expression on his sed with incredible difficulty He scolded Jon iht the old captain was reluctant to share his “secret sword” But then he slowly understood that the captain didn’t want him to join the army
Since then, his admiration for the old captain fell to the bottoht he was scared
He was not a victorious veteran but a deserter who feared war
This thought continued until lastthe well-equipped robber, the old captain rushed up first
He was in his fifties, holding a sword alone, and stopped three robbers But the robber had horses, after all He was soon scarred and beaten up
At this ti behind dared to rush forward The militias tried to set up teht to restrict the horses’ an to retreat as the battle continued They successfully broke through the encirclehthtmares, he would think of those two shots
