Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 462: Baron Abbott

Chapter 462 Baron Abbott

The sky is covered with clouds, the wind is blowing through the bones, the sky is covered with goose feather snow, the mountains and rivers are covered with thick white fur, and another year of winter has arrived.

Maybe my already is old. Even though the fire in the fireplace is very hot, Baron Abbott still feels cold all over. Tighten the leather jacket on the body, sip the fruit wine in the golden cup, and silently stared at the raging world outside the window, involuntarily recalling the happy days when friends and Mercenary Group gathered in the tavern ...

The good old days already are gone forever, there is no longer the vigorous go-going goshawk Mercenary Group. I remember when the boss was drunk and declared in the tavern that Mercenary Group would be built into one of the top ten Mercenary Groups of Trade Union. Everyone sweared to help the boss realize this wish.

Remember that the Boss one-eyed Merde was standing behind the wine cabinet and smiling kindly, and those alcoholic people also started to coax. No one laughed at the young Mercenary who had this beautiful wish. At that time, Morante City gathered by Mercenary, almost all Mercenarys hoped that their Mercenary Group could be one of the top ten, which represented the highest honor of Mercenary Group ...

The Mercenary career that was born and died in the past 20 years. After the efforts of the boss, himself and the third and all the elites Mercenary in the regiment, finally the Goshaw Mercenary Group rose from more than one hundred to two in the Trade Union hundred Mercenary Group ranking There were about ten people. At that time, there was only a short distance from the realization of the original wish, but no one expected that this short distance would become a natural sound.

All changes occurred at the moment when Trade Union was about to implement the Lord System, plus the glass war between Trade Union and the Kingdom of Trimble. The boss decided to lead the entire Mercenary Group Mercenary to the Trimble Kingdom, using his sword to find a nobility status road and a bright future for Mercenary Group ...

All Mercenary Group's comrades-in-arms were so spirited before departure. Goshawk Mercenary Group is not an unknown name in Mercenary. It ranks 21st. The three Captains are all Gold Mercenary. They also have an elite team composed of 100 Silver Mercenary. When I first entered the Trimble Kingdom, it was smooth sailing, robbed three Aristocrat(s) estates, and it was a good harvest. Everyone thought that this trip was right, and they also pressed three noble ladies who can only see from a distance. ...

The nightmare came so suddenly, not ten days later, the boss who led the team to be ransacked was given a sword by Great Sword Master, a bounty announcement issued by Guttullenberg VII, and more than forty elites who accompanied him Silver Mercenary only escaped three, Goshawk Mercenary Group was suddenly interrupted by the spine, vitality was greatly injured.

Then there was an internal strife. In order to fight for the dominance and inheritance of Mercenary Group, he and his youngest had a fierce fight. His left rib was hit with a sword, but the youngest was also uncomfortable and was interrupted by himself. Finally, he left Mercenary Group with more than forty relatives.

I just do n’t have the boss's talents. I ca n’t let Mercenary Group continue to develop. There are more and more people leaving. Seeing that the Goshawk Mercenary Group is almost unsustainable, fortunately, the Twinhead Dragon Chamber of Commerce deputy director I know Pulled myself and introduced myself to a vice chairman of Twinhead Dragon Chamber of Commerce. Then he used the Provident Fund of Goshawk Mercenary Group for many years to bribe the vice chairman, so that he helped him to obtain this Baron title.

The heavy wooden door was pushed open, and a cold wind blew into the warm room. Baron Abbott awoke from the memories, tightened his skin again, turned and looked at the burly man and the thin middle-aged man who entered the room. . The burly man is the chief Knight(s) Adrian of Baron Abbott, an elite Mercenary of 3 Star Silver's former Goshawk Mercenary Group. The small and middle-aged man was named Griegel, who was the logistic supervisor of Mercenary Group at that time, but now he is the chief manager of Baron Territory. Both of them are Baron Abbott's left and right arms.

"Lord(s), I just came back from the ranch. The snow outside was very thick and it was higher than my knees. Everything was normal in the ranch, but an old sheep was frozen to death. I asked someone to take care of the shepherd in charge. Twenty whip ... "Adrian Knight(s) reported.

"Don't you kill someone?" Baron Abbott asked.

"No." Adrian Knight(s) shook his head: "Lord(s), rest assured, I have my own right hand. And these cheap bones are not disobedient, their lives are very hard and they can live this winter."

Baron Abbott was silent for a moment, and nodded: "You did a good job, proper punishment is necessary, otherwise these will be lazy. But you have to understand that these are all we paid for, if we start too hard That is the loss of our gold coin(s) in vain. And I heard that the war is coming to an end, we Trade Union can no longer plunder captives from Central and South African countries, and these will become more and more valuable in the future. "

"I see, Lord(s)," Adrian Knight(s) said.

The war between Trade Union and the Central South Kingdom Army for more than four years, the Trade Union, the victor, captured nearly 100,000 captives while plundering all the kingdoms in Central South. If they want to feed so many captives, they need a lot of food and consume a lot of defensive forces and funds. So a savvy Chamber of Commerce member proposed to sell these captives and got the approval of the parliament. This decision was very much endorsed and welcomed by those Lord(s)s with Territory lacking manpower.

It is just that Trade Union has always claimed democracy and freedom, and it is by no means an abominable slavery country. So they sold only the labor rights of these captives. The civilians captured were three years of hard labor, and the soldier(s) as a prisoner of war was five years of hard labor. In theory, these prisoners bought by Lord(s) will be automatically free as long as they have served their labor, but in fact no one will pay attention to the rights of these auctioned prisoners.

On the contrary, the Trade Union parliament rejoiced for this. It believed that this would not only save the cost of keeping prisoners, but also raise a large amount of war funds by auctioning these prisoners, and at the same time enable those Territory who lack human resources to get sufficient labor. It is one of the most productive policies of Trade Union.

Anderwoff Province can also be regarded as the newly occupied territory of Trade Union. After the annexation of Anderwoff Province, Trade Union has registered more than 80 new Territory Aristocrat(s) in Anderwoff Province. Baron Abbott is one of them. It was just that Anderwoff Province, when Second Highness died of Redlis Kingdom, battled with the Aristocrat(s) coalition forces in a series of battles and searched each other.

Baron Abbott After coming to Anderwoff Province's own book Territory seven years ago, less than a thousand people gathered, and they were all old and weak. After years of unscrupulous gathering and gathering, and fighting with the nearby Lord(s) dozens of times, the population of Baron Abbott Territory's leading people finally exceeded 10,000, and it is also second to none in the Territory. However, the majority of the old and the weak are still there. For this reason, Baron Abbott purchased more than 300 young and strong prisoners from the auction of Trade Union, becoming the main labor force in Territory.

"Lord(s), I have visited the manor just now, and it is all right." Director Grigail reported his duties to Baron Abbott.

Baron Abbott nodded with satisfaction: "You all did a good job. Come, sit down and have a glass of wine, warm up your body by roasting and grilling. Adrian, there is still a calf leg hanging over there, you go to take our barbecue to eat . "

In private, Baron Abbott still has nothing to show, and it doesn't pay attention to superior or inferiority. Although it was sealed as Baron, his temper is still like the bold Mercenary vice Captain. Even the Territory Aristocrat(s) often criticized, he secretly gave him the nickname Mercenary Lord(s), mocking him for his cheap Mercenary origin.

Receive a bbq from Adrian Knight(s), dip it in a plate filled with salt, then stuff it into your mouth and chew it. Mr. Gregel handed over the newly poured golden cup filled with ale in a timely manner. Baron Abbott took a sip and sighed long: "Fresh."

Drop the Golden Cup Baron Abbott and say, "We must build a castle next year."

It was ridiculed by Lord(s) as Mercenary Lord(s), Baron Abbott didn't mind, but already has not built a decent castle in Territory for the past seven years, which makes Baron Abbott feel very embarrassed. Everyone knows that living in a castle as Lord(s) is a matter of course, rather than living in a wooden house built of logs, and even the manor is only surrounded by branches.

"Lord(s), our family armed forces will not have to guard the border next year, but manpower is available, but do we have the funds to build the castle?" Adrian Knight(s) asked.

Four years ago, Andinak Kingdom's King Oggsero I went to the central four Dukedom, and it only took one year to reach Handra Dukedom. Handara Grand Duke(s)'s messenger for the messenger went to Vysia Chamber of Commerce Territory's Federica King City, and the entire Anderwoff Province. The Territory Aristocrat(s) were shocked overnight, fearing that it was their turn after the death of Handra Dukedom. Some Aristocrat(s) requested that they spare no effort to support Handra Grand Duke(s), and some Aristocrat(s) packed their belongings in preparation for running back to Morante City once they were attacked.

At a critical moment, a vice chairman of Vysia Chamber of Commerce came to Anderwoff Province to inspect and gave Aristocrat(s)s a peace of mind. The vice chairman reminded all Territory Aristocrat(s), don't forget that Trade Union is now the largest and powerful country of Grindia Continent. Although it is now in the war with the Central and South Kingdom's coalition forces, the tension is indeed not taking care of the situation in the north, but it is not without its power And don't forget that Trade Union just pulled a Tempest Sword Saint kingdom guardian. As long as the King of Andinak Kingdom still has the mind, he will not dare to offend the majesty of Trade Union.

Anderwoff Province ’s Territory Aristocrat(s) were calmed down by the vice president ’s inspection. The subsequent development was as expected by the vice president. After the surrender of Handra Grand Duke(s), the army of Andinak Kingdom did not continue to attack, but stopped at the border of Anderwoff Province. Footsteps. Immediately afterwards, the Kingdom's famous White Lion Legion was transferred, and a posture of steadily defending the counterattack was set on the border. This time all the Territory Aristocrat(s) have let go of that nervousness.

Just the next thing is embarrassing for all Anderwoff Province's Territory Aristocrat(s). In order to prevent the invasion of Andinak Kingdom, Aristocrat(s) organized a coalition army with a total of more than 10,000 people, preparing to attack Anderwoff Province when the King of Antinak attacked. The resistance was also to gain time for the evacuation of Aristocrat(s). But now that the King of Antioch has not launched an offense, but has put on a defensive posture, should this coalition be disbanded?

In the face of life and death of powerful enemies, in order to save their lives, everyone can help out together, and each Territory Aristocrat(s) supports the coalition forces as much as possible. But there is no threat from foreign enemies. So is this coalition still necessary for existence? It should be known that the military expenditure of existence, which supports a standing army of nearly 10,000 people, is an extremely painful expense for these Territory Aristocrat(s) Anderwoff Province.

However, the border must be guarded in case the Andinak Kingdom army suddenly launches an attack. The Territory Aristocrat(s) of Anderwoff Province negotiated an extremely talented idea. Lots were drawn, and whoever was drawn would be assigned to the soldiers to undertake the security tasks of the border. Once every three years, the number of soldiers required was based on the population of Territory. One of the twenty leaders will serve as a soldier. As for the cost, everyone should share it, and a 3,000-person border guard would save more than a 10,000-strong standing army.

So Baron Abbott won a glorious lottery. Although he always suspected that someone was a ghost, he could not find the evidence. He had to swallow the dumb loss, and took five hundred young people from Territory to be led by Adrian Knight(s) on the border. After three years of wind blowing, the lack of labor in Territory not only failed to develop, but even built his own castle, and he had to buy those captives to return.

Baron Abbott laughed easily: "You do n’t know, that Andinak Kingdom's Augerro I already assembled his army and was ready to go to war with Trade Union, but instead of launching an attack from us, he transferred his army to the two southwestern provinces. I guess I think it's closer to Morante City ... "

"No wonder the White Lion Legion deployed at Majik province was also unveiled. The border was replaced by a 10,000-strong army. I do n’t know if it was newly created. The defense was very strict. Our scouts were all driven back in the past. A few more were wounded ... "Adrian Knight(s) said.

"So we are safe here. Next year we can watch Trade Union and Andinak Kingdom playing Cambona Province . It is winter and snowstorms. We do n’t have to worry about being attacked by the enemy. Wait for Cambona Province next year. When we started playing, we took the opportunity to clean up those guys who were around. I always suspected that it was Weims Viscount that made a ghost, so we won the unlucky lottery, and wasted three years in vain. /

When the spring begins, we will use the water source to stir up the dispute. Anyway, in the old guy, Wims can only move his mouth and twist his head. There are only two hundred defense teams and three Silver Knight. That's not ours. opponent. Although Trade Union prohibits cannibalism between Lord(s), then we do not move his family and ransack his 3,000-person town and his broken castle. When the parliament sends someone to come and talk with them, maybe Trade Union will only focus on the war with Andinak Kingdom, and will not take care of our little things ... "

"If we do n’t have enough funds to build the castle, take advantage of this opportunity to search from those Lord(s)s who have been around. Hehe, the wind blowing on the border for three years is not in vain, I am very grateful to Adrian, you put This defensive team of our family has trained into a powerful armed forces force. "Baron Abbott said his thoughtful decision,

Gregel, the director, is very happy: "It's time to clean up that old guy. Last time I met on the road, I laughed at our low-quality Mercenary. Didn't their Chamber of Commerce also start by selling linen, much more noble than us ... ... "

Baron Abbott laughed, suddenly stopped his mouth, and listened: "It seems to be moving outside?"

Indeed, there seems to be some noise in the wind.

Adrian Knight(s) stood up: "I'll see what's going on ..."

As soon as the words fell, I heard a bang. Several soldier(s)s wearing white cloaks and one-piece brown leather rushed into the warm room. The sword and spear in their hands flickered in the fire. The pale cold light: "Don't move, raise your hand, surrender your weapon, kneel to spare!"

...
