If I let you farm, will you become the emperor of the empire?

"But I saw in his movements that there were no marks on the horse's back." The knight added. "He's a pacer."

"Only an infantry knight can compete with an infantry knight." Bald Carter was very polite when talking to Front.

They all have a knack for insight.

"So." Simon said softly,

"We only needed to invest a team of fighting knights to tear open the gap."

In the suddenly silent environment, his voice seemed noisy.

After a while.

Sir Foucault said, "Sir Simon, don't be ridiculous. How could the knights of the Wieliczka family fall by the river? This is an insult to them."

The Battle Knight is not just for filling lines.

"Even if we do that, it may not be successful." Front also said, "Until we can figure out the details there, I think it's better not to attack for the time being."

Steve simply asked: "Master Front, have you noticed anything?"

"Just take it as my intuition. That army is very special. I think Mr. Carter should know something about it. This is their family tradition." The old knight turned his eyes to the other person.

"Our family's warriors are good at fighting, so one can equal two." Bald Carter nodded.

"Don't look at me like that, Wielichka brat. I think you are ignorant and I won't argue with you. But I dare say that ordinary armies can't stop our onslaught. You should understand clearly - they haven't messed up. Position! This is not easy to do.”

Steve said: "You mean Roman Crack Armor has raised a professional army."

"That's right! They are not used for farming, but for killing people - just like the beast warriors of our family! It's just that most of them are neither savage nor strong. We should be able to guess the specific reasons. After all, Our respected Earl's subjects were snatched away not long ago, and it will take some time for them to become qualified warriors. We should be glad that we are not a month late, otherwise we will only lose more people."

Count Kant's face was so gloomy that he wanted to drip. He hated the pain, "That kid must have poured the magic potion into them, or it wasn't the wizard who found Cang Yue who put the curse on them!"

Sir Simon murmured: "But this is not the method a small noble should have."

"He was born in the Archduke! The Archduke of the Archduke is as rich as anyone in the country!" Carter yelled, "What the hell! I bet that boy must be the grand duke's biological son. Not all descendants can have the Archduke of the Archduke! "

Wieliczka interjected: "He has such ability, I mean such outstanding ability - if he were his own son, he would not be exiled to this remote country."

Carter glared at him, "You call a place that can produce salt a backcountry?"

When Wieliczka stagnated, his family also produced salt, and now it boomeranged.

Immediately he said angrily: "If Grand Duke Jia Jia knows that there are salt mines here, how can we still have a share!"

"My lord, I think you should know something."

Count Kant was very innocent. He spread his hands and said, "I was not born when the Archduke of Armor-Splitting conquered that place."

No one laughed at this statement.

The Earl is over fifty years old and well maintained. He seems to be one of the oldest people sitting here.

Sir Front never gave his age, but he must have looked older than his age after a lifetime of military service.

Count Kant used to think that the river valley was a barren land and never paid much attention to it. He didn't even have the idea of ​​​​plundering. Who would go to such trouble to rob a neighbor who was poorer than them, especially when there was a man standing behind the neighbor? giant.

Count Kant continued: "If you ask me, you are asking the wrong person. You may not know the past of this land. I will tell you now. If you have an impression of the conqueror, you should know that there was a pioneer in his era. stage.

"This land was originally developed. Of course, the pioneering lord is not my ancestor, and it doesn't matter who he is. What's important is that this land belongs to my ancestor from now on - he is the second son of a nobleman, and he has no If you can inherit the territory, you have to work hard on your own.

"At that time, this land had only two to three thousand people and several thousand acres of land. Now all this wealth was cultivated step by step by my ancestors and fathers for tens of hundreds of years. Do you think we have the energy to pay attention to dozens of miles? Is there a river valley town that is more remote than here and requires a boat ride? "

Wieliczka said impatiently: "With so much nonsense, our Lord Count doesn't know anything?"

The Count was sullen, but Wieliczka was right.

"I made a deal with them last year. They exchanged salt for grain, and I didn't know that salt was produced in that valley."

"Then what? You just watch like this? You don't know anything?"

Count Kant's face was ugly. What reason did he give to interfere with that land?

Roman is not a count or a baron. He is a vassal of the Archduke of Armor Split and the lord of a territory.

When he comes to Kande Land, he has to call him Earl, and when he goes to Sige Town, he has to call Roman his lord.

Identity and status are equal.

He had a plan, but sending troops is not so easy. You have to find a suitable reason.

Otherwise, the Grand Duke could crush the Kant family to death with his little finger.

The result of his indecisiveness was that others took advantage of him.

When he learned that 600 soldiers and 400 military servants appeared downstream, he was completely confused.

Guys! Who understands this!

Where did you get so many high-quality troops and equipment?

Everyone stared at Kant. The Count said, "If I were to say that Roman Liejia was in a worse situation when he inherited that territory than when my ancestors got here, would you believe it?"

Velichka said honestly, "My Lord Count, we are not interested in your family's struggle history."

Their development speed is obviously dozens of times faster than your ancestors.

Moreover, if your ancestors had fought for it, they would not have lived in this poor place for hundreds of years.

They went there for less than a year and they ate salt.

Think more about your own problems and whether you have worked hard to develop over the years.

In order to maintain their friendship, Vielichka took great pains not to say this hurtful word, and secretly praised his own patience.

"I have nothing to say!" Count Kant's face was ashen. "It's far more mysterious than you think. Even if you torture those merchants who have been to Sige Town, they probably know nothing about it. His business tax is very low, and transactions can be completed at the dock. The child of a big merchant led a caravan to go there several times, but he only saw him once and never appeared again."

They only know that Sige Town obtained a large amount of supplies through salt trade last year.

Food is the first, followed by iron ingots and slaves.

However, those iron ingots are not enough to equip an army of more than a thousand people.

And slaves can explain the source of those troops.

But they are all from armed nobles and know the difficulty of training slaves into qualified soldiers.

To put it bluntly, slaves are not even qualified to be conscripts!

If you dare to let them fight, they will turn around and run away, turning into a rogue army, which will only disrupt their own formation.

They are not good at doing things, but they are more likely to cause trouble.

It is still more suitable for the battlefield to be composed of free people.

After all, free people generally have weaknesses. Once they become deserters, their whole family will suffer.

Everyone present was extremely confused and felt it was extremely strange.

"Is there a pusher from the Grand Duke of Split Armor?"

Count Kant said in a sonorous voice: "No! Sir Simon! This is the only thing I can be sure of!"

Just like the Fruit Party could not figure out why those local party mud legs had such strong fighting power, the more they fought, the more fierce they became, and the more they were suppressed.

This does not conform to the local conditions of this land at all.

"Well, just think that there will always be some stupid big guys among the untouchables... I mean the kind who are born with brute force but no brains."

"What should we do now? Our knights are not sea knights who can walk on water."

"Block the river, from upstream to downstream, starve them to death!" Count Kant said.

"Humph! So many soldiers... He had to rely on buying food to maintain his rule last year, and this year, he has to feed more people. Once he can't get food supplies, his soldiers will tie him up and send him to us without us doing anything!"

The blockade needs to be effective for a long time.

This is a helpless method, and war has always been like this.

When besieging certain castles, it often takes more than half a year or even several years to break through them.
