Empires Start with Lords

When Ross led the army through the Courtesy Territory, the local lord William Courtenes was watching from not far away.

William looked at Ross passing by in surprise, and said, "Isn't he alone before? How come there is such an elite team all of a sudden, at least the direct force of an earl.

It seems that we have all been deceived. We have to tell Prince George about this matter. This news will definitely surprise him. Then we can negotiate with Prince George! "

Ross saw William, but he ignored it. He didn't know that William was trying to use him as a bargaining chip to blackmail George.

George is Ross' eldest brother, and when George takes the throne, he will be George fifteen.

Ross did not stop all the way. He walked for five days before he arrived at the border fortress. Because he brought the army, the fortress sent knights to come at the first time.

The knight held a red flag and stopped Ross's army, but he saw that the flag was the flag of the royal family of Ketar, but the background color was different. He said respectfully, "Sir, your army can only be stationed outside the city."

Ross nodded and said, "I see."

Led by a knight, Ross's army found a place to camp outside the city. And Ross entered the city with only a few knights and ten squires.

After Ross entered the city, he went straight to the slave market. He was now short of time. The round-trip time was ten days, and there were not many days left before the orcs came.

In the slave market, the best sellers are the Colts, who are very strong and good at fighting.

Next are the Yuemanians. They are hard-working, hard-working, and very suitable for being farmers.

As for the others, it is not as obvious as these two types of advantages.

However, these two types of slaves are relatively expensive, and one gold coin can only buy two or three people.

Ross exchanged a thousand gold coins this time. He spent five hundred gold coins to buy five Peelts and six hundred Moon Manians.

With five hundred gold coins left, he bought clothes, shoes and other things, as well as pots and pans, as well as more than a dozen carriages. He temporarily kept the remaining money.

Ross delivered the goods with the merchants on the spot, and then left the market with the slaves and went outside the city.

Such a long line attracted the attention of pedestrians, and some of the Colts wanted to escape, but the slaves were all tied together and could not escape at all.

Although Ross couldn't bear to do this, he couldn't soften his heart at this time. After all, his life was the most important thing.

He took the slaves to his army's station, and he stood on a high place and said to a group of slaves: "I know you are not willing to be slaves, you should be the best warriors and the best farmers.

I don't want to treat you as slaves either, but we are in the wasteland and must be united in order to survive in this wasteland.

As long as you work hard for me, I will restore your status as a free man based on your contribution and work attitude!

Not only that, I will also help you to start a family and start a business, and you will be rewarded for your military exploits. In the first three years of farming, your land will be yours, and after that, the land will belong to you. "

Hearing Rose's promise, both the Colts and the Moonmanians were excited. They felt that they had seen hope, but some people felt that it was not credible. The commoners naturally did not believe in nobles.

And the reason why Ross did this is to build his own territory. Slaves will not bring prosperity to a castle, but free people can.

After Ross said these words, on the way back, the slaves stopped making trouble. Although some people didn't believe it, most people still wanted to see the authenticity of all this.

Because there were a bunch of slaves who couldn't eat or sleep well in the market, of course Ross couldn't rush back within five days, but after Ross knew the problem, he immediately adjusted the slaves' food.

This time, the slaves ate better than before, and they also ate meat. This time, many people believed that what Ross said before was true.

Because Ross changed the meals of the slaves, the slaves walked much faster and complained less.

This made their team a lot faster, and in the end it only took seven days to return to Muzhai.

In the days when Ross left Muzhai, some kobolds came to investigate, and Bayar immediately sent cavalry to investigate around.

After the kobolds went back to investigate the news, there were no signs of sending troops from the affiliated tribes, but Bayar did not let down his guard, and sent people to inquire about the news every day.

Now that Ross came back with thousands of people, Bayar felt a lot more relaxed.

With the participation of these 1,100 human slaves, the construction of Muzhai has accelerated by more than a few dollars, and the consumption of food has also accelerated. Fortunately, he had savings before, and the food supply was not tight.

Fifteen days later, the wooden village in Ross's plan finally had a basic appearance. This wooden village was built along the moat, with a length and width of 200 meters, and a total area of ​​more than 40,000 square meters. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

On the side of the wall, there is a horse face every ten meters, that is, a protruding section, so that you can shoot arrows at the enemy below the city wall.

After the construction of the Muzhai, Ross's system has changed. His system interface does not enter the task system, and the building page has also been unlocked.

Ross opened the task: "Task: Become a real lord and own a castle of your own (Note: Stone Fort).

Mission reward: The number of recruits has been increased to 1,500, and the Roman Legion, the Spartan King's Guard, and the Greek Heavy Infantry Phalanx will be unlocked. "

Ross saw this task, and his head was big. This stone castle not only required money, but also required a lot of time and manpower. The task was difficult.

The most important thing at the moment is to resist the autumn attack of the orc tribe.

Ross put his mind away, he clicked on the building page to check, and found a building in the main city that unlocked the castle, not only the castle, but also the built-in military camp, blacksmith shop, lumber mill, warehouse and other buildings.

And the castle in the system, the lowest one, is just about the same size as the Rosewood Village, and the cost is 18,000 gold coins.

And Ross himself still had 1,550 military exploits and 4,500 gold coins. He didn't hesitate to exchange the gold coins and bought the cheapest castle.

The system immediately prompted: "The castle can be placed!"

When Ross was excited, he immediately placed the castle, and when the light flashed, he stood in the hall.

"The task is completed, and the reward has been issued."

"Mission: An earl's territory is at least 500 square kilometers, please expand your territory.

Mission reward: One thousand military exploits, unlocking the Knights Templar, the English Longbowmen. "

Ross was stunned for a moment. After waking up from the excitement just now, he seemed to be exposed...
