Warlord: King of All Clans
Chapter 138 Solovy Knight Leader
If the Arctic Ice River is like the Heilongjiang River in the previous life, then the Anzeno River is the Yellow River of China and the mother river of the north.
Just as the area south of the Yellow River is not the south, the south bank of the Anzeno River is not the southern border. The division between the north and the south is the Dome River and the Fabric Mountains further south.
The Borokbach Mountains, which extend from the southeast corner of the magnificent barrier and head straight south, are the Taihang Mountains of the Orlantis Empire, separating the western border from the northern and southern borders.
Because of the existence of the Anzeno River Falls, as well as the majestic barriers and the Borokbach Mountains, the moisture blowing in from the south and the nourishment of the Anzeno River make Isenpol deep inland, but it has sufficient rainfall and a suitable climate.
In the northern part of the Wolf-Kulang Plain, most of the forests have gradually degenerated into grasslands over the past seven hundred years, but the southern part of the Wolf-Kulang Plain near Isenpol is still a vast forest.
The same is true on the south bank of the Anzeno River. The lush forests provide rich forestry resources, so each knight's territory has its own logging camp.
But unprocessed logs cannot be sold at any price in Isenbol. Only some rare woods and processed boards are accepted by the market.
The stream in the Solovy Knight Territory has little water power, so the knights can only build a small sawmill and water mill to achieve self-sufficiency. However, they cannot monetize the abundant timber in the territory through water power and water transportation like other knight territories adjacent to large rivers.
The people of the Solovy Knight Territory make a living by farming. Hundreds of people maintain hundreds of acres of farmland. Although it is not the farming season, there are still many farmers working in the fields.
The thriving wheat fields, the cattle and sheep grazing in the woods, and the relaxed villagers indicate that this territory is very safe and there is almost no threat from wild animals or refugees.
Seeing the Solovy Knight passing by the dirt road beside the field, the farmers bowed their heads in reverence, and some even knelt down to worship him.
The kneeling ceremony in the North is a very solemn etiquette, and even kneeling on one knee only occurs in very serious occasions.
Leo followed behind and watched the villagers kneel and bow to Knight Solovy, but of course he did not cynically accuse them of anything.
From the villagers' reverent eyes, it can be seen that Knight Solovy is their patron saint!
On the contrary, Knight Solovy was indifferent to the villagers and ignored them. He let them kneel and salute him while he rode away without even looking back.
The villagers had long been accustomed to the normal routine, and they only dispersed after Knight Solovy left.
Leo often heard Ulyan talk about the Petukhov family.
This is a traditional and old-fashioned knight family that takes pride in abiding by the chivalric code of loyalty, honor, justice, bravery and generosity.
But he also has the arrogance of an aristocrat and looks down on the lowly commoners.
By the time of Rigolav's generation, they even looked down on other nobles and were often laughed at by the nobles of Isenbol because of their old-fashioned and dogmatic remarks.
But as a commoner, or from the perspective of a time traveler, Petukhov, who is keen on abiding by the chivalric code, can be regarded as a moral role model for the nobles in the Isenbol territory.
They fought bravely and with strategy, loved their people, obeyed the law, and at the same time abhorred evil.
So don’t be fooled by the way they look down on you and point fingers at you in their daily lives.
If you encounter problems, they will really help!
And it doesn’t matter how close your relationship is!
Ulian once said that the square-flag knight Rigolav had spent five years fighting bandits in the western part of Isenpor, but he was not doing it for military merit.
It was because a group of bandits took advantage of his absence to climb over the western sentry tower, rushed into his knight territory, and killed seventeen citizens.
Rigolav, who was over 40 years old and had already become the head of the family, took up his gun and mounted his horse, led his lord's army, and took over the position of garrison commander of the western outpost. It took him five years to avenge his people by paying back a hundredfold.
As a die-hard fan of Rigolav, Ulyan certainly exaggerates and brags a lot in his words.
Just as all landlords have stupid sons and all rich people are unhappy, how can there be good people among the nobles?
But there is at least one thing that Leo knows best, that is, up to now, the assistance promised by the Petukhov family for the construction of River Bend, as well as the support in Isenpol, have not been reduced at all.
Even Rigolav's second brother, who had always been in conflict with him, never jumped out to add to the drama.
This time, Knight Solovey stepped out in the open and scared off the invading forces of the Gladstone family, which meant that he took on the hatred of Gladstone for River Bay.
Knight Solovy did not live in the mansion built by the previous knight lord, the Mirvis family, but instead gave it to the village chief he designated. He built a small house on the hillside not far behind the village.
He took in two children, a boy and a girl, from the villagers as servants to take care of his daily life.
Compared with other knight lords, he doesn't look like a lord, but rather an ascetic monk.
Leo was standing on the lawn outside the cabin, overlooking the entire village. Seeing that Knight Solovy had no intention of inviting him in to sit down, he had no choice but to strike up a conversation, "My uncle, have you not married yet?"
Solovie glanced at him again. "No one."
Although his elder brother, second elder brother and even nephew began to worry about his marriage, his bottom line did not relax because of his age.
Moreover, the noble lady of Isenbol was described as unsightly even by his own two elder brothers, so how could he dare to marry her into his family?
Leo thought quickly, trying to see if there was any breakthrough in this regard.
Ah, now the most educated adult woman in Riverbend, besides her own Olivia, is the kobold Fisa.
In order to avoid being stabbed to death by the Solovyvian Knight, Leo quickly changed the subject.
He looked at the village below for a while and said, "The people of your lordship live a healthy and prosperous life, with the elderly well cared for and the young well cared for. My uncle governs well and is truly a role model for a knight lord."
Knight Solovi didn't want to pay any attention to him.
This village is no different from when the Miswitch family ruled. The only change is that people's hearts are more loyal to them.
Knight Solovie is fully focused on his personal strength, and business management is his shortcoming.
All he could do every day was to ride his horse and hold a gun to walk around the knights' territory, stab any wild beasts he saw to death, and let the villagers come to share the meat.
Seeing the robber, he shot him to death and asked the villagers to come and hang him on the tree.
When they saw refugees coming and going, they would rush back to the village and ask the headman to provide them with food, lodging and land.
He did not take a single cent of the knights' output. He gave half to the head of the family and the other half to the village chief to distribute to the villagers.
The population of the Knight Territory has increased a bit now, but the overall appearance is almost the same as before he took over.
Seeing that Knight Solovi ignored him, Leo said to himself, "It's a pity that the villagers have become a little lax. Look at the wooden wall on the west side. It's already rotten, and some villagers are taking shortcuts there. The west is a wilderness. If a few dozen wild wolves come in, some villagers will die."
"The road leading to the World Tree Avenue also needs to be repaired. It was supposed to be a gravel road, but now it's been trampled into mud. Caravans don't want to come in."
"Look at those canals. There's stagnant water there, right?"
Knight Solovie finally became interested and asked, "So what do you think we should do?"
