Chapter 399: Winter Is Coming at Night

"The situation is not bad." Roland nodded slightly. The three hundred infantrymen and the two knights were completely negligible. Those civilians were the ones Roland was interested in. Population is the strongest cornerstone of a country...

Don’t you see, the King of the North is a man of great loyalty. Although the enemy is powerful, the fatal population base of the North is also the fatal injury to its decline!

How miserable was the entire Northland after a large number of Northland cavalry and Northland knights left the Northland to go to the south to establish the country?

King Girion of the Riverdale State died gloriously under Smaug's attack...

Thor, the king under the mountain, was killed by Azog...

Selayin II was also imprisoned in the Black Forest and tortured to death...

Thorin... let's not talk about this poor child.

Dáin Ironfoot died during the War of the Ring.

Bard's grandson, King Brand, also died in front of Yinlubo City together with Dain.

From this point of view, the King of the North is really a high-risk profession! Among them, the Dwarf King is the most loyal... Could it be that there are too few people? (Of course it has something to do with the Dwarf King liking Mang.)

Although Roland also likes to charge into battle, there is a premise, that is, under the protection of the Knights, can you try to see if Roland can rush forward and attack the orcs? At most, Roland would spit on the person who suggested it and then carefully hide himself among the knights...

After all, King Roland cherishes his life the most. As a time traveler with a magical system, how could Roland put himself in a dangerous place.

…

"Arrange the soldiers to go to Lulong Fortress, we don't need them here! The knights are temporarily assigned to the Cross Bauhinia Knights. The Holy Glory Knights are all vanguard knights. Don't let them mix together when there is no war!" Roland said to Yun Feng said.

"Well, where are the remaining residents?" Yun Feng blinked. After all, if more than 3,000 people got into chaos, it would be a big problem.

"Disperse them and mix them with other civilians, so that they can integrate into the kingdom as soon as possible!" Roland ordered.

"I think you should find some work for the young men in the city as soon as possible! After all, there have been frequent security incidents in the city during this period..." Yun Feng's mouth twitched slightly.

Nowadays, these young people in the city, who are full and have nothing to do, gather together every day to chat, brag and brag, and quarrels will occur... Then the young and vigorous young people will have conflicts, and it is normal for them to start fighting.

"It's so boring! I have nothing to do after I'm full..." Roland held his forehead helplessly.

"I guess it will take some time for Mr. Radil. During this time, he will arrange for the young men to dig up the cultivated land outside the city and dig out all the soil and stones!" Roland said to Yun Feng.

"Yeah!" Yun Feng nodded.

…

"Your Highness, are you looking for me?" Lord Lafitte Anthony looked respectfully at King Roland who was sitting on the chair.

"Well, can you tell me about your situation?" Roland asked.

"This is my honor!" Lord Lafitte Anthony bowed slightly and said to Roland.

…

"Are you coming from the Helka Inland Sea?" Roland looked shocked. Behind the Helka Inland Sea is the Holy Lamp of Vanla!

In the original work, in order to provide illumination, Vera injects the light that illuminates the world into two giant lamps called Yinluin and Ormao. Aulë created the pillars of giant lamps, one in Helka to the north and another in the inner sea of ​​Ringil to the south. Arda's appearance at this time was that of a symmetrical continent illuminated by two giant lamps at the north and south ends. The light of two giant lamps meet in the center of the world, where the island of Almaren, home of the Valar, is located.

However, there are no gods such as Valar in this Middle Earth, so it is difficult to say whether the Holy Lamp of Valar exists or not, but what is certain is that the Twin Holy Trees did exist before.

Seeing Roland fell into silence, Lord Lafitte Anthony was slightly panicked. He looked at Roland and didn't know what to do. Facing a completely unfamiliar king, even Lord Lafitte Anthony, who was born in the Anthony family, felt this. There was a numbness in his claws, and he couldn't figure out his emotions, anger, sorrow, and joy. Naturally, he couldn't do anything. Roland fell into deep thought, while Lafitte Anthony was awkwardly holding on to the fortress with his feet.

"Oh! Sorry! I was too obsessed with my thoughts!" Roland then remembered that there was a person who was still standing in front of him, bowing and stupidly.

"No need to be restrained, sit down!" Roland didn't say much. Even if he pulled Lafitte Anthony's neck and told him that he was approachable, he probably wouldn't believe it easily. Let everything leave it to time. After all, Roland is still very tolerant. Yes, after all, he didn't even accuse the wise man Yun Feng of "hunting" him.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Lafitte Anthony quickly sat half of his buttocks on the chair, sitting upright.

"I called you here to discuss something with you. According to your situation, you should be given a fiefdom. However, you should also have a preliminary understanding of the current situation of the kingdom. It's not that I can't afford the fiefdom, and I won't be able to give it to you. We have people to develop it, so I will slow down this matter first and tell you in advance. I’m afraid you might have a grudge!” Roland explained.

"As long as His Highness orders it! I have no objection!" Lord Lafitte Anthony had no idea about this. When he knew the general situation of the kingdom, he understood that the population he brought would definitely give priority to enriching the country. After all, the kingdom protects the nobles. The soil and foundation of the land, and Lafitte Anthony has no envy for becoming a feudal noble. After all, productivity is so bad. If he had a choice, Lafitte Anthony would rather sleep in the Swift River City. Not only is it safe and warm, but the most important thing is Food and accommodation are included!

"Well, that's good if you think so! The kingdom won't treat you badly!" Roland nodded with satisfaction. Children can be taught! As long as everyone doesn't make trouble, there won't be any problem. As for the inviolability of the rights of nobles... Those who can't see the situation clearly under these extraordinary circumstances will not survive now!

"Well, the administrative officer of Rapid City is also free! You can take up the post tomorrow! Exercise yourself!" Roland arranged.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Lafitte Anthony bowed respectfully. Although he did not get a noble fief, etc., but with an iron rice bowl as a guarantee, it can be predicted that Lafitte Anthony will live a good life in the future.

…

"It's getting dark..." Roland frowned, the days were getting shorter and shorter!

"Woo~" Nyx hugged Roland obediently and whimpered.

"Sorry, the armor is too cold!" Roland quickly got out of the way. The cold Archduke Dragon Armor was so cold in the evening breeze that he almost screamed.

"It's winter solstice..." Roland whispered as he gently pushed Nyx back.

"This winter is much better than last year!" Roland had a smile on his face.
