Farming Road from Baron to Emperor

Chapter 174

Outside Khamis Castle, a dozen or so barbarians in animal skins approached cautiously.This group of people is Caudel and Manshi.

Seen from a distance, the low-slung castle was stained with a layer of blood-like crimson, and there was a stench in the spring breeze, which seemed to herald the ominousness of Khamis Castle.

"Caudell, it won't be breached here." Man Shi was carrying a thick mace and looked ahead uneasily.

Caudle also looked solemn, with a trace of uneasiness in his guess.

"It is very possible that we came here following the footprints of the tauren. Now that there are no traces of the tauren outside the castle, where else can they go except inside the castle? Could it be that they have gone underground?

Tell everyone to be on alert, let's go forward to see the specific situation, if Khamis Castle is breached, then our Black Feather tribe will be in danger. "

After finishing speaking, Caudel led Man Shi and the others to their waists, like fat caterpillars, approaching the castle little by little under the cover of weeds.

"Caudel, look at what that is. Why are there several hills in front of the castle?" Manshi tried to narrow his eyes, trying to make himself see farther.

"Let me take a look." After speaking, Caudel raised his waist slightly and looked forward, only to see several mountains as tall as a person built on the face of the castle. Looking at these mountains, Caudel felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity .

Then he narrowed his eyes and finally saw clearly what was in the mound. The mound was built with the heads of tauren.

The familiar mound immediately reminded him of Earl Shire. Could it be that Earl Shire led the team to wipe out these tauren?
"Caudel, what is that mound?" Just as Caudel was deep in thought, Man Shi beside him asked eagerly with curiosity.

"It's a head!"

"Heads?" Man Shi's thick voice instantly spread to the wilderness, and he seemed to realize that he was wrong, so he quickly covered his mouth and said in a 'whispered' voice that everyone could hear: "How many heads are needed, How many people must have died in this Khamis Castle."

"Whoever told you that it was a human's head, couldn't it be the head of a tauren." Caudel said with a smile, and if you look carefully, you will find a hint of pride in his smile.

"Tauren's head!" Man Shi's thick voice sounded again, and he covered his mouth again, "It will take hundreds of tauren, who can kill them."

Man Shi, you don't need to cover your mouth anymore. If we were enemies, we would have been discovered long ago.

Man Shi just smiled naively, with embarrassment in his smile.After the embarrassment passed, he quickly asked: "Who on earth can kill so many tauren and cut off their heads."

"Only the Earl of Shire would cut off the tauren's head to build a hill. I suspect that it was the Earl of Shire who led the troops to eradicate the tauren in the castle."

Caudle said sternly.

"Is that the Earl you mentioned who helped you avenge you? I heard you say that his territory is not in the south? Why did he come here?"

Man Shi said in surprise, just like today's star-chasers who meet their idols on the road, they are very excited.

"Can we go inside the castle and pay our respects to the Earl of Shire?"

Caudle held his forehead with one hand. When did the barbarians have such a good relationship with the nobles of the Principality of Artem, they could drop by at any time.He suspects in his eyes now that Man Shi can become the captain of the hunting team purely because of his body.

However, as the tribe sent by Shire to win over the tribe in the Blackstone Mountains, Caudle will naturally not let go of this opportunity.

"Of course, this honorable Earl of Shire has traveled thousands of miles to fight and defeat the tauren. He must be a man of extremely noble character."

Caudle lifted his neck, nostrils up, and said proudly, "Of course."

Let's go then.

……

At this time, Charles in the castle had a look of anger, because the villagers in the inner castle were tortured to the point of disfigurement. There were hundreds of people left, and Thomas tricked them into eating human flesh.

Thomas' group of bloody beasts also prey on women and children, and Charles wants to bring them back to life and do it all over again.

"Andrew, send another [-] iris infantry to escort the villagers here to Sakura Town, and tell Sorel that these villagers set up a village according to the method of a steel town, establish a household registration, and organize them to open up wasteland."

"We will strive to plant a batch of beans this fall. Before that, the government affairs department will provide food and farm tools."

"Besides, let the Clivia family leaders who are still staying in their homeland gather together."

Charles looked at the map of the Earl of Violet and said that this map was collected by the Clivia family, and it was regarded as his spoils of war. Through the map, Charles can roughly judge the population distribution of the territory through the location of the town of the Earl of Violet.

At this moment, Andrew stepped forward and asked, "Master, are these people gathered together to send back the iris collar?"

"No, just stay here. The tauren didn't drive them away, which means that they are all people who are nostalgic for their homeland. These people are dead-tempered, and forced relocation is easy to cause trouble. Besides, Clivia still has a large area of ​​reclaimed farmland. , It's a pity to be abandoned like this.

After the villagers who are willing to leave here leave, the remaining people gather together, set up several large villages, and then re-divide the cultivated land. Follow the measures I announced in the steel town before, concentrate the villages, establish a security team, establish a government office, and establish The household registration system completes the vertical management of the Iris family here. "

Charles swung Fang Qiu on the map, as if the entire Earl of Violet was in the palm of his hand.

"Master Shire, what are the remaining 2000 Iris soldiers responsible for?"

Charles left the desk and looked outside, the green grass was covered with dark red spots.

"The main force of the Clivia-led tauren has been cleaned up by us, but there are still running away and escaped tauren and kobolds in the territory. I sent Iris soldiers to search and wipe out all the tauren led by Clivia. Let the villagers I can farm with peace of mind and recuperate.”

After Andrew left, Charles leaned against the window and began to think about his next move.The information transmission of Pella City, coupled with the time of transmission on the road, the news transmitted is far behind the reality.

However, according to the available information, it is not difficult for Charles to judge that the Tauren's offensive is getting stronger and stronger. In the territory of the second prince Enkata and Earl Rhonda, the Tauren has established a firm foothold and even started a further counterattack. .

The same is true for the Earl of Violet. The tauren have already begun to counterattack. The town of Violet, the center of the Earl of Violet, has even been surrounded by the tauren.

I don't know the situation of the Principality of Sukale, so I can only wait for the letter from the Bernard Valdez family.Charles estimated that the situation in the Principality of Sukale was not much better. At that time, the old king of the Principality of Artem had just withdrawn their army, and they must have gone to suppress the tauren in the country.

So where is the further development direction of the iris territory?Shire shifted his gaze to Earl of Violet, which has a flat terrain, wide rivers, fertile farmland, a larger population than Iris Collar, and a port, which can open up connections with the William family of the Duchy of Luma.

Would it be a bit immoral to do so? When the tauren aggressively attacked the Earl of Violet, he would even add insult to injury.

Although it may make things worse, Charles still wants to hold the initiative in his own hands instead of entrusting the trust to others. If he wants to hold the initiative in his own hands, he must have more To have more troops, if he wanted to have more troops, he had to have more people farming and joining the army.

After digesting the territory of the Clivia family, Shire's next plan is the Baron of Harmon. Although the two sides were very harmonious when they passed through the Baron of Harmon, it now hinders the interests of the Iris family and needs to be removed.

Just as Shire was planning the next thing, a guard suddenly walked in.

"My lord, there are some barbarians outside the door who want to see you."

"What's going on?" Charles was a little puzzled. He was an earl, and a few barbarians wanted to see him. Wasn't that just a dream?They can't even pass the guard.

"Master, among them is Caudel, the barbarian you sent out." The nurse replied.

Now that Charles understood why, he said to the guards, "Call them in."

After a while, two unarmed barbarians in animal skins walked in.

"Hello Earl Shire, I am Caudel from the Black Feather Tribe." Caudel bowed slightly and bowed to salute.

When Man Shi saw Caudle's actions, his mind was stunned. Caudle had never taught him before. Man Shi quickly said in the same way as Caudle: "See the respected Earl of Shire, I am Man Stone from the Black Feather Tribe. .”

Charles looked at the two people. He knew Caudle, and he also knew the barbarian named Manshi next to him. It seemed that Caudle had entered the tribe called Black Feather.

This barbarian named Manshi is nine feet tall, with big arms and round waist. The wide animal skin is worn on him like a tights, and it can't cover the thick and broad arms and shoulders at all. He is a tiger general.

Charles asked calmly, "What do you two mean by visiting me?"

"Respected Earl of Shire, we admire your feat of eliminating the tauren, and we came to pay a special visit to you to express our respect and surrender." Caudle bowed.Man Shi on the side quickly followed suit and said, "Dear Earl, I am the same."

"It doesn't have to be like this. It is the duty of every human being to eliminate these man-eating monsters. This is not worthy of praise. I saw that you two are strong and strong. Are you also here to hunt and kill these tauren monsters?"

Before Caudel could speak this time, Manshi spoke first, and he finally found a question he could answer.

"Earl Shire, we are here as the vanguard of the Black Feather Tribe to detect the traces of the tauren. I didn't expect you to defeat the tauren and make them submit. You are so powerful that you can wipe out those tauren , Earl, I also want to be like you."

After finishing speaking, Man Shi's heart was pounding, his face was flushed, and he looked very nervous.

"Hahaha, you are very ambitious. I see that you are physically strong, and I will see if you can lift this pair of stone locks." Charles said, pointing to the stone locks on the side of the room.This is his usual toy.

"no problem."

Man Shi held his breath, strode to the front, pulled hard with one hand, and immediately pulled up, followed by a pause, and pushed forward, lifting the stone lock.

Seeing this scene, Charles was a little surprised. Although he could lift the stone lock even more easily than him, he had been baptized by fighting spirit several times, and his whole body was tempered by fighting spirit. It has never been tempered, and it has such great strength. Could it be a natural divine power.

"Okay! As worthy of being a warrior, come here, and bring me the armor I usually wear."

After a while, a guard came over with a pair of black armor, making a crisp sound as he walked.

"Give the armor to this warrior, how can this be done without a good armor."

Hearing Shire's words, Manshi became excited instantly. A complete set of armor, which he could hardly dream of, was in front of him now, and it was rewarded by the Earl of Shire he admired.

Man Shi's heart flew straight into the sky like a rocket.

Then Charles continued: "Next, we will continue to fight against the tauren in Earl Violet Territory. If you want to participate, just ask me to join directly. If your tribe is in danger, you can also go back to protect the tribe. "

Man Shi moved a little, like a kitten scratching his heart, but the duty of guarding the tribe restricted him.Suddenly he looked over to Caudle.

"Are you going to join the Lord Earl's army?"

"No, I have to go back and report the tribe, the news that the tauren was wiped out." Caudel wanted to laugh, he was just sent out, how could he go back.

Hearing this sentence, Man Shi was very excited, "It's just right, you lead people to the tribe, and I'm here to fight the tauren, so it's settled."

"Ah?...Okay, I can go back alone." Caudel said hesitantly.

"As expected of my good brother." Man Shi hugged Caudle tightly like a wild bear.

In this way, Manshi served as a soldier here, and Caudle led the warriors of the tribe back to report the news.

　Thank you Sun Liansheng for your reward, thank you!
