After the Titan's Gate battle ended, the expeditionary army stayed at the Stream Outpost to rest. Ryan originally wanted to wait for Gotrek and Felix to return, but the scouts reported back that the two went directly to Dragon Cliff Fort. They went on a killing spree in Dragon Cliff Fort. After killing a lot of greenskins, they looted the entire fortress and disappeared.
"Gorek and Felix will not be bound by the army." In response, the white dwarf said: "What they yearn for is freedom and an honorable death... as stupid as it is, we must respect Gotrek's choice, and so are his bloodsworn companions."
As for how Francois hired this legendary duo, Francois smiled and shook his head: "I didn't hire it."
"Who hired that?" Ryan asked curiously.
"It's Marienburg." François stroked his goatee and said with a smile: "It was hired by a big trench merchant in Marienburg. ship, and brought Gotrek and Felix to Sea Gate Pass."
"Marienburg businessman?!" Ryan was surprised: "Yes, Schultz?"
"No, it's Viscount Casanova from the League of Gentlemen. Didn't you meet him?" François looked at Ryan a little strangely, and the old man shrugged: "I thought you were friends."
"I just met him..." Ryan understood at this time: "Well, I know, I didn't expect that Casanova had such terrifying energy."
For ordinary merchants, it is great to know Gotrek and Felix, but Casanova was able to find them and pay to invite them here, which shows how much power this Marienburg merchant has behind him. Huge network of contacts.
It seems that this is not just a secret gesture, Ryan rubbed his chin and thought.
Things are getting more and more interesting.
After a few short sentences, the memorial service of the Holy Grail Knight Antelm was held in the outpost of the stream. The Holy Grail Knight who died in battle held a sword in both hands and lay flat on the sarcophagus. The eulogy was read by Knight King Ryan himself, and everyone mourned , and then watching the body of the Holy Grail Knight gradually turn into ashes in the flames, his soul will not rest in peace, but will go to the fairy kingdom of the lake fairy and continue to fight for the goddess.
As for the position of Earl of Kuilau, his eldest son will inherit it, but the eldest son is not currently in the expeditionary army, so this matter has been temporarily put on hold until the expeditionary army returns to Britannia.
"Too many people died." When the memorial service was over, Ryan said to Callard: "How do people face this kind of hatred?"
"Death on the battlefield, shrouded in horse leather, this is the fate of a knight." Calad's expression was a little sad: "As long as we want to defend the kingdom and eliminate evil, we always have to pay a price. The price may be very high, but we have no complaints. Regret, the lady used the Holy Grail to inspire us, and we will die for it."
Ryan smiled after hearing the words, and then shook his head helplessly.
This is why Brittania has been able to sustain for thousands of years. Because of the huge external pressure, the knights and nobles have to maintain an aggressive spirit and abundant martial arts to prevent the country from subjugation and extinction. At the same time, they also know how to make certain concessions to the serfs. The serfs also knew that they couldn't deal with the Chaos Frenzy and the Greenskin Frenzy without the Lord Knight, and they were willing to make certain concessions, so that the two sides reached a dynamic balance.
This is why it is clear that many serfs are often hungry and rebels are few, and they are often willing to endure. This is why when Ryan carried out reforms and asked the knights and nobles to give up a part of their benefits so that the serfs could at least have food and clothing, the enlightened part of the knights and nobles also Choose to accept, there is no noise.
After all, no matter whether it is chaos or greenskins, no one wants to take prisoners. The purpose is to destroy everything. This is not a question of changing a ruler, but a question of subjugation of the country and species.
Maybe,
This is called tolerance for the country, Ryan laughed at himself, if placed in the world of his previous life, in the absence of pressure from foreign enemies, knights and nobles would be a proper villain.
But in this dark world, this method has protected the survival of the Knight Kingdom to the greatest extent.
It's also ironic enough.
So were the serfs really too poor to survive? In fact, it is not necessarily true. Ryan visited everywhere before he became king. Most of the serfs have received enough benefits after Ryan’s reform. Many serfs who get off work mostly have money to go to the bar to spend a few copper coins for a glass of beer after work. , Even if they are serfs farming, their annual income is about 3-5 gold kroner (excluding tax). In this case, they can save money for buying serf household registration after saving for 5-10 years.
Leek, that's how it came about, Ryan has opened up the channel for class advancement, and the next step is to look at the serfs themselves.
After thinking about these things, the memorial service was held. The war was not settled, and everything was kept simple. Ryan made some arrangements and turned back to the king's mansion. This stone building has been slightly repaired by the dwarves to ensure that there will be no leaks. Veronica And Orika lives with him.
The king changed back to his own dress and wore a white gold cup cloak behind him. After the Titan's Gate battle, it snowed heavily again. Ryan inspected the camp. Many serf soldiers huddled together to keep warm. Ryan has tried his best to arrange all Everyone lives in houses, but the stream outpost is a small outpost after all, not a place for special living. The number of houses is limited, so naturally some serfs and infantry can only build a shed.
On the way back, the king stopped by to see the camp of the Ugol cavalry archers. In this battle of the Gate of Titans, the Ugol cavalry archers were a little greedy, which led to a counterattack by Skarsnik's concentrated superior forces. The loss was heavy, and the commander, Admiral Ivan, was also killed. The remaining two hundred Ugol horse archers elected a new leader. His name was Beria, and his parents both grazed in the troll kingdom. Poor Ugol nomads, but the captain once served as an engineer apprentice in Prager's Institute of Builders when he was young, and has engineer experience, which makes the captain look handsome and gentle (for Mrs. Kessler) Say).
Beria joined the army after obtaining the qualification of an engineer. He once served as an attendant under Fulgen's hussars general Felix Edmondovich, and then returned to Ugol to become the captain of the cavalry squad. Come on Brittany.
Beria fought bravely. After the death of Admiral Ivan, he immediately blew the horn, regrouped the nearly defeated cavalry, shot Skarsnik in the shoulder with a bow and arrow, and avoided the doom of the cavalry being wiped out. And persisted until Ryan's arrival.
Well, Beria, this name is really unique, Ryan smiled meaningfully, patted the thirties-year-old cavalry general, and said that you will succeed General Ivan. As for the rank, Ryan I will inform Ice Queen Katarin, at least to a major general.
Beria knelt down excitedly and pledged his allegiance in public, saying that I was the bow and arrow in the hands of His Majesty Ryan. Ryan accepted Beria's allegiance and gave him a new surname—Gulag.
What an honor! Beria kowtowed again. Horse archers who were born as herdsmen did not have a surname, but since His Majesty Ryan gave him a surname, it means that if Beria returns to Kislev, he can also openly express that I am the same Master Boyer!
I will not mess with His Majesty Katarin from now on! It is better to follow His Majesty Ryan's route to eat meat!
At this time, Beria was already thinking about how to betray Queen Katarin to gain status.
Then Ryan took a look at the Britannia Independence Regiment left behind by the black-hearted Lepp. Ryan did not arrange for the independent regiment to carry the line in this war, but wanted to leave some capital for Durant, and Durant also Completed his task well.
The tree has been covered with a white gauze, and the ground seems to be covered with a thick layer of white quilt. The mountains have become a world of pink and jade. Walking on the soft snow, I can hear the creaking under my feet With the creaking sound, Ryan closed his eyes, enjoying a brief moment of tranquility.
After inspecting everything, Ryan returned to his house in the heavy snow. The fire was lit in the house, and the dark elf's face was a little pale. She sat in front of the fire and stewed a delicious stew, exuding a tempting aroma and gurgling At this time, Veronica had finished bathing, and Witch Garland put on her favorite high elf silk dress and a white fox fur coat, wrapped herself in a quilt, leaned against the soft pillow and Drinking hot coffee on the bed, she was quite comfortable. When she saw Ryan pushing the door and coming in, covered in snow, Witch Jialan waved her hand distressedly: "Honey, are you tired? Come here."
"I'm fine, you and Olika have worked hard." Ryan walked to the edge of the bed, sat on the head of the bed, reached out and hugged Olika into his arms from behind: "Olika, is the magic reserve okay? "
"It's not enough, master." The dark elf's face was flushed, and he leaned on Ryan with attachment, sniffing the faint scent of the master's body: "Dinner is ready, just wait for your lady to come back."
"By the way, where's the lady?" Ryan realized that the fairy in the lake had gone out.
"She went to the Wood Elf camp." Veronica leaned lazily on the head of the bed, stretched out a beautiful black silk foot from under the quilt, and kicked Ryan lightly: "Yes, Ryan, Do you really plan to let us go deep into the enemy's lair together to deal with the headhunter Quick?"
"I..." Before Ryan could say anything, the Fairy of the Lake appeared directly in the room with the Holy Grail in her hand. Seeing this, Ryan gently squeezed the black silk feet of Witch Garland, enjoying the silk stockings. Smooth and delicate touch: "Honey, eat first, let's talk while eating."
Fifteen minutes later, Ryan, the Fairy of the Lake, Veronica, and Orika sat on the ground, sitting directly on the ground covered with animal skins on the first layer, and then on the second layer of soft woolen carpet, surrounded by They ate together by the stove, and the fairy in the lake sat directly next to Ryan quite domineeringly. The goddess just took out a glass of wood elf fruit wine to taste, and watched Ryan and the others eat.
"So, the five of you plan to go deep into the Bafeng Mountain to eliminate the headhunter Quake?" After hearing Ryan's whole plan, the fairy in the lake pondered: "Who will go?"
"Me, King Belega, Olika, Veronica, and Alaros." Ryan nodded, and he said seriously: "I have thought about it carefully, and this is the most suitable method, and it is also the most effective method at present. After this war, the army needs time to rest, and we must completely wipe out the headhunters Quick and Skarsnik, otherwise even if we can capture Bafeng Mountain, Belega and his people will not be able to survive in peace. Now after the battle, Bafeng The number of guards in the mountain has been reduced to the minimum, and the five of us will have no problem going in and killing."
Olika served the stew for Ryan again, and Veronica wrapped herself in a coat and a blanket. After listening to Ryan's arrangement, she asked: "So, why Quick? Isn't Skarsnik better? Is it? It was wounded, and the army suffered heavy losses."
"Belga knows about Skarsnik. Skasnik, who has suffered successive defeats, has had his spine broken at this time. It no longer dares to take the initiative to attack. Its only thought at this time is to stick to it, stick to it, and escape. Ryan nodded, and he said in a deep voice: "If you go to trouble with Skasnik, you are bound to get nothing, but Headhunter Quick is different. Bellegar also understands Headhunter Quick. This Skaven warlord not only It won't run away like other rats, but it's tough. It will definitely try to find a way to make a comeback, and Bellegar can be sure that Quake will conduct a super-large Skaven sacrificial ceremony... Strengthen the Supreme Lord of Disaster! Let this Skaven daemon descend upon the mortal world for a long time! We must prevent Quick the Headhunter from completing this ritual, and then kill them both!"
"So that's how it is." The fairy in the lake nodded slowly, and finally showed a satisfied expression on her beautiful and beautiful face: "Very well, let's go and do it, and you must destroy that big clock too! That is the Calamity Bell, the artifact of the Skaven Horned Rat. Give me some time, and I will make a few magical amulets. When you wear my magical amulets, you will be able to resist the bell of the Horned Rat. .”
"Okay!" Ryan nodded after hearing this, and the King of Knights thought that no matter what he said, the fairy in the lake still fully supported him.
"Take a rest for three days. After three days, I will use my teleportation technique to teleport five people directly into a collapsed leyline network." Ryan finally made the arrangements.
After dinner, the fairy in the lake fetched raw materials to make amulets on the spot. Witch Jialan was drowsy, so she went to rest in the room after dinner, and Orika looked at Ryan expectantly. , indicating that it is my turn, and at the same time looking impatiently at the fairy in the lake, indicating that you can get out.
"Ryan, your beard has grown again." The fairy in the lake pinched Ryan's face: "Go and shave it clean! I've been busy with this matter for you, and you don't understand me?"
"Alright alright."
The little beard that the king had managed to grow was shaved clean again.
