Reincarnated Goblin: More children at the beginning, more blessings!

Chapter 053

Time passes.

For a week, no trace of the silver dragon was found.

Instead, the village in the surface world is in trouble.

“My lord, aren’t the taxes of previous years paid next month?”

“Why is it ahead of schedule this year?”

The village chief looked at the group of knights in front of him with a bitter expression.

When the leading knight captain heard this, he only glanced at the village chief faintly.

“Lord Lord will go to war with the lord next door, and as Lord Lord’s subject, everyone must hand over grain as supplies according to their heads.”

“Lord Knight, there is no more food left in our village.”

The village chief’s face was bitter, there was still one month to go before the autumn harvest season, and now whose grain in the village is not bottoming out.

If it weren’t for the fact that they were fed by those monsters, these ordinary civilians would have to live by gnawing bark.

Where to get such a large batch of grain.

“It’s none of my business, I’m just being ordered to pass on the lord’s orders, and as the lord’s lord, everything you have now comes from the benevolent lord.”

“It is a gift to you to be able to contribute your value to the lord, and if you fail to hand in the grain on time, your village will lose the lord’s protection.”

“It is also for your good to gather the grain and hand it over as soon as possible, without the benevolent protection of Lord Lord, how long can this small village of yours exist?”

The knight’s face was indifferent, obviously not caring about the lives of these ordinary civilians at all.

War is imminent, and there is no food to start a war with other lords.

If the grain could not be handed over by then, he would take the knight and rob the village of all the grain.

As for the life and death of these people, what does it have to do with him.

These untouchables will naturally have their own way to survive.

“Lord Knight, we…”

The village chief opened his mouth, still trying to say something.

When the knight captain heard this, he directly pulled out the knight’s longsword on his waist and issued an ultimatum.

“In three days, I will come again, and if there is not enough food, this village will lose the protection of Lord Lord.”

“Of course, you still have a second choice, that is, to select twenty young and strong laborers to serve the lord, and your village will be exempted from the levy of grain.”

The knight glanced at the town-like village in front of him.

The last time he visited, the village was dilapidated, and it was like it had been renovated for a while.

Moreover, there are so many newly reclaimed farmlands on the back mountain.

I will report this matter to Lord Lord when I go back.

Since this village has so much potential, it would be nice to draw a little more young and strong.

If you want to maintain the majesty of the lord, the most important thing is to suppress the strength of the other forces in the territory.

After all, once these villages develop and grow, they are likely to disobey the lord’s discipline.

This kind of thing, he is very familiar with.

Looking at the departing knight, the village chief’s face turned pale.

In this village, there are only a hundred families in total, and twenty young and strong people are dispatched?

Isn’t that digging their roots?

“It’s really troublesome.”

Listening to the story of the village chief, Mark lightly tapped his head and had a headache.

Originally, it was just developing quietly, and things would always come to the door.

This group of knights, I am afraid that the grain is fake, the main purpose is to draw young and strong people from various villages and towns.

To the battlefield as cannon fodder.

A war, in addition to elites, is indispensable for all kinds of running back.

The battle between two lords is a fight between professionals, these ordinary people go to the battlefield, and it is not bad that two or three out of ten can survive.

In such a village, there are not so many young and middle-aged people, and most of the rest are old, weak and sick.

It’s basically wasted.

Of course, this is the worst-case scenario.

“I can only show a little strength, so that this lord retreats in spite of the difficulties.”

Three days passed, and the group of knights swaggered again.

Moreover, this time the number is even more exaggerated than the previous one, there are enough twenty regular knights.

“Captain, it’s just a small mountain village, can you use such fanfare?”

After the crowd, a knight said with a disapproving face.

“Lord Lord’s thoughts, how can we speculate.”

The knight leader shouted in a low voice.

“The fact that this village can develop so quickly has created enough threats to Lord Lord.”

“If you don’t suppress it again, sooner or later there will be chaos.”

Seeing the village approaching, the knight leader shut up.

When he came to the village, he sent someone to call out the village chief.

After a while, several people walked out of the village.

“Is the food ready?”

The knight leader looked at the village chief with proud eyes.

This time, he had the lord’s signal, and he could do things a little more brazenly.

“There is no food.”

The village chief did not speak, but it was a young man standing behind the village chief.

“If there is no food, then take twenty young and strong from the village.”

The knight glanced at him, not paying attention to it at all.

This time, twenty knights set out, all of them professionals.

Whether the village can get food or not, these young and strong people will be pumped away.

“You can’t take it with you.”

The young man shook his head, and the expression on his face was indescribably calm.

“In the future, this village will no longer be a subordinate of your lord, and we will not need your protection, so… There is no need to hand over food to you. ”

“Do you know what you’re talking about?”

The knight leader narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes already showed an unkind look.

There was a faint smell of danger on his body.

“I said, this village doesn’t need your shelter.”

“I want to start today, this is my territory.”

Before Mark finished speaking, the leader knight had already drawn his long sword and swung it over.

“Find death!”

The knight leader’s eyes were cold and flashing with indifference.

The long sword in his hand slashed towards Mark’s neck without hesitation.

Betraying Lord Lord is simply unforgivable.

Clang!

Mark tilted his head, and the sword from the knight leader shattered directly.
