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

Nathan rode his horse and galloped to the woods where he was hiding.

"Aina! Will!" He quickly dismounted and rushed over while rolling and crawling.

The movement quickly alarmed the people in the forest.

"You...are Nathan?"

Everyone was in disbelief when they saw him.

"Where are Aina and Will!" the Berserker asked loudly.

"Nathan...Nathan, is that you? Are you back?" came the response from the forest.

The haunting voice that can only be heard in dreams rang in my ears.

Nathan cried with joy, ran over, and soon saw the figure standing in the forest. His face was not beautiful, but in his eyes it was extremely attractive, and he couldn't get enough of it.

"Aina! My Aina! It's great that you are okay."

She was happily picked up. The heavy armor was hard and heavy, sticking to her body. It felt not good at all.

She immediately frowned and looked at her somewhat strange husband.

His beard is stubble, but traces of trimming can be seen. There is blood on his face and on his body, especially the expensive armor. His thick eyebrows, big eyes, and piercing eyes. His spirit is completely different from the past. Everything Everything felt strange to her.

He has a strong body, now as strong as an old cow, but what remains unchanged is his eyes, which are gentle and kind, but there are tears on his face and his eyes are red.

She immediately understood Nathan's panic and fear when he couldn't find them.

She also had that experience and was terrified day and night.

"Am I dreaming!"

"No, Aina, I'm back. Look, it's really me." He put one hand around his wife's waist, and the other hand grabbed her hand and put it against his face.

The couple reunited after a long absence and cried holding each other's hands.

Nathan suddenly saw a child standing behind Aina, looking at him.

After putting Aina down, the child immediately hugged Aina's legs and looked at him with fearful eyes.

Ina pushed Will forward, "It's daddy," she said to Nathan. "You know, he's only four."

"Will, it's me, daddy is back," Nathan said in a soft and soft tone.

He stretched out his hands, but Will ducked away in fear.

Nathan was silent. He had been away for a year, and now his son didn't even remember him.

Little Will's face was dirty, and he looked at him with strange eyes. He ran behind Aina again, hugged her legs, and whispered: "Mom, I'm hungry."

"I have food here, there is food." Nathan said quickly.

He took out a bag of dry food from his horse, which was full of meat sticks and bread. He turned it over and took out a handful of candies.

"This is delicious, eat this." It was a fudge made from maltose.

Little Will timidly stretched out his hands to hold it. He lowered his head and ate one. His eyes lit up and he took a big bite. He looked very hungry.

"Captain, it's time for us to leave!" Ace reminded as two soldiers rushed over.

Nathan suddenly realized, "Aina, I'm here to pick you up, come with me quickly, it's too dangerous here!"

Aina was stunned, "Where to go!"

"Go to a safe place." Nathan said anxiously, spreading his arms, and Ace and Lott quickly removed his armor.

"Stop packing your things and leave with me now."

Aina's expression became even more shocked, "Now?"

"Yeah, we don't have time to delay, the pirates will come no matter when."

"But..." Aina turned her head and looked at the villagers gathered around her. Those people looked at them quietly.

"But what..." Nathan followed his gaze and saw his former compatriots, now homeless refugees.

They escaped the massacre by pirates, but their homes were destroyed and they did not even dare to harvest crops. Even if they could harvest, they had no basis for farming.

Everyone is at a loss about the future.

Nathan silently grabbed Aina's wrist, picked up Will who was eating candy, and took them away from here.

"Nathan!" She broke away from his hand.

Everything was so sudden that she didn't react at first, but now she understands.

"Freeman, Connor, McGonagall..." She looked at Nathan and said one name after another, each name representing a family.

"They helped me! Helped Will! Otherwise we would have died."

Nathan knew the names, and he had helped them.

Because he can pull a plow by himself, and after finishing his work, he will go to help other families who do not have oxen.

So, how did a woman with a three- or four-year-old child survive this year? How did you survive this year of war and chaos?

Naturally, someone helped her.

People at the bottom will be beaten to death for a handful of wheat.

But they also help each other.

If the poor won’t help the poor, who will?

"You have to follow me. Believe me, Aina, I heard it on the road. The army of noble gentlemen is coming soon. The pirates will also gather their troops here. They will have a head-on confrontation. There will be a confrontation here. Turned into a scorched earth..." He whispered to Aina, telling him the news he got on the way.

The battle lines are changing, and so are the battlefields.

The noble lord began to build a short bridge across the river to intercept the pirate longships and force them to face off.

The pirates hoped to find a breakthrough that would allow them to attack land on a large scale.

The lord of Tarle County died a month ago, and there is a high probability that this place will become one of the breakthrough points.

No one will care about their life or death by then.

Pirates are dirty things.

But the coalition of nobles is not a clean thing either.

"Then I can't just leave like this! Nathan! Freeman gave me and Will food even when he was hungry, and Connor would give us a rabbit leg from the rabbits he caught in the trap, and Mag... He drowned while fishing at night, and he still has two children alive... They are helpless!" Ina lowered her head and said sadly.

"I'm just here to pick you and Will up, Ina, there are too many of them." Nathan whispered in her ear.

They were all looking at him, and he couldn't do more.

He knew that if he took the people over, Roman would not be angry, but happy instead.

But for him, this was too difficult.

There were at least a hundred people in this forest, and large-scale marches were different from cavalry marches, which took a long time and had more changes.

"I have to consider my brothers." He is an only child, with younger brothers and sisters, but none of them lived to adulthood.

The brothers he is talking about now are the soldiers behind him.

Master Roman taught them to live and die together, and never leave each other, and this is not just his business.

"Captain! Give the order! I'm Ace from the first squad of the third squadron of the third battalion. I listen to you!"

"I'm Lotte from the fifth squad of the first squadron of the third battalion! Captain, I listen to you too!"

The two soldiers were very close to each other. After hearing what Nathan said, they immediately expressed their opinions.

They became soldiers last year and can be called veterans. They have laid a solid foundation in both physical training and ideological education.

If they had no fighting power and no awareness, Roman would not have let them follow Nathan on a long journey.

All along the way, not only Nathan was depressed and heavy, but they were also very uncomfortable.

In the face of disaster, if the poor don't help the poor, who else will help them! ?

Nathan's concept is very simple. He repays kindness with kindness and revenges with hatred. When he sees people in trouble, he helps them if he can, and forgets if he can't.

Now that they support him, maybe it really works.

He shouted to everyone with his loud voice:

"I am Nathan, you all know me. I was captured by pirates last year, and a kind lord saved me. There are no pirates on his land, which is very safe and rich. Everyone can eat and drink as long as they work, and there are free houses and clothes. As long as someone goes there, they can get such treatment. I promise this is true! The lord also asked me to be the captain of the guard. I came here this time to pick up Ina and Will. If you want to go too, then follow me and I will take you to that land full of hope!"

Super good new book, the front row of the new book list, highly recommended
