King
Chapter 77 Unsuccessful Showdown
"What's going on? Everyone looks dejected. Who are you trying to show this to?"
Hudson asked unhappily.
Baron Hudson, who had just received a wave of refugees and was rejoicing at the increase in labor force, suddenly discovered that something was wrong with his men's mood.
The younger brother must act like the younger brother, and it is simply unreasonable to show off his face in front of the boss. If word got out, wouldn't the outside world say that he was lax in his duties?
Seeing Hudson's anger, Tom, who was the most responsive, quickly put away his emotions and replied: "Master, the mission you ordered cannot be continued!
I don't know who leaked the news, and many nobles came out to rob people. There are soldiers guarding everywhere, and they will arrest refugees whenever they see them.
We encountered several waves of interceptions along the way, but thanks to your reputation, we were let go. "
After hearing this answer, Hudson didn't know what to say. Although I know that this kind of thing won't last long, someone will jump out to grab the business. But directly leading troops to rob people is too much...
Forget it, talking too much will only lead to tears. Who asked him to pay attention to food and fortune all the time?
Now that the neighbors have reacted and started leading troops to rob people, it is no longer possible to rob people.
He did not detain his younger brother, but also asked them to bring back the person who was deceived, which was obviously a favor to Hudson.
In aristocratic circles, face is given to each other. Everyone saved him face, and Hudson had to accept the favor.
Counting those trickled in one after another, the population of the Hudson Territory has exceeded the 6,000 mark. Although the overall situation is still facing the dilemma of labor shortage, the development of the territory is finally on the right track.
Compared with many of his colleagues, his territory has developed very quickly. Especially the guys from Northern Xinjiang are still halfway there, and their territory has become a no-man's land.
I really don’t know how they will be grateful to their neighbors when they arrive and see the deserted scene of their territory.
Unknowingly, Hudson found that he had actually dug a sinkhole between the local nobles and the northern nobles, which was no less powerful than the thunder buried by Earl Pierce.
Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents.
Just by relying on deception, some people will still be unable to leave their homeland and choose to stay where they are, waiting for the arrival of the new lord.
But the colleagues did such a great job that they led troops to rob people without even leaving a leek root behind.
It can be said that one by one, as long as they led the troops to rob people, they are now standing on the opposite side of this group of nobles who went south to northern Xinjiang.
After being tormented by his colleagues, Hudson couldn't understand the world. Is this because he is afraid that the northern Xinjiang nobles will not find out, or because he thinks that they will not dare to knock on the door to ask for someone?
This is not the way to offend someone to the point of death or to show off your power. Reason told Hudson that there must be someone behind this.
Combined with the previous actions of the Governor's Palace, Hudson had reason to believe that this was the handiwork of Earl Pierce.
Although the Kingdom of Alpha does not clearly stipulate the ownership of the serfs under the command of the previous lord after his death without an heir, everyone still defaults to the new lord.
Unspoken rules are also rules. Without the tacit approval of the boss, no one in the Southeast Province would dare to do so unscrupulously.
The northern Xinjiang nobles took advantage of the situation and severely manipulated the Dalton family. If they didn't take revenge and go back, wouldn't it look like they were incompetent?
Digging holes and laying mines is a secret method. On the surface, the Dalton family also needs to come up with countermeasures to let everyone understand that they are the boss of the Southeast Province.
Many of the nobles enshrined in Wyton and Wright counties had served the Dalton family.
Although the relationship is officially divorced, there is definitely no lack of contact secretly. The eldest brother was humiliated, so it makes sense for the younger brother to take revenge.
Perhaps it was his own initiative, or perhaps it was the instruction of Earl Pierce. In short, this account will eventually be charged to the Dalton family.
The boss can take the blame, but the blame will still fall on the person involved. Unless the nobles of Northern Xinjiang are incredibly powerful and able to suppress the Dalton family, the counterattack will only target a group of younger brothers who are active.
After thinking about it, Hudson finally decided to keep a low profile these days. No matter how the two sides play the game, as a pawn, the less existence you have, the better.
Thinking of this, Hudson immediately asked for pen and paper to report the news to the family. He couldn't help but manage to hold on, only to be dragged down by his clan members.
The main thing is to remind Adrian Knight not to have too much fun, especially not to drag the family into the whirlpool of the storm.
As for Adrian himself, he followed Earl Pierce, and the mark of the Dalton family on his body was too strong to escape. Maybe if he leads troops to rob people this time, he will have a share.
There are also advantages to following the boss. As long as you don't be too obtrusive when executing orders and don't violate some taboos, there will always be someone to take care of you even if something goes wrong.
In the southeastern province, the Dalton family can still protect them. As long as they don't take the initiative to commit suicide, they will basically not die.
The worst thing is that when someone comes to settle a score, he will be caught and beaten up, which will cause him some loss of face.
As long as the operation is good, the beating will not be in vain, and you can show your loyalty to the boss for the last time. If you are lucky, you can also get some compensation.
As for the two members of the same clan in Wyton County, they had just inherited the title and were still living in poverty. Only the support from relatives can keep the territory running.
Even if you want to do something, you don't have the capital. Not to mention leading troops to rob people, even if they send people over, they will have to worry about how to feed them.
…
After traveling all the way, a group of northern nobles finally arrived at Beida City, the administrative center of the Southeast Province and the headquarters of the Dalton family.
Without any surprise, the army was stopped outside. Regardless of whether they are elite or a ragtag army, the military discipline of the Aslant continent is very average.
When they were in their hometown, the soldiers were barely able to make no mistakes. When you become a guest, you will get nothing if you don't grab it.
Everyone is afraid of foreign troops like a dragon. Although everyone has now joined the ranks of the nobles of the Southeast Province, they are still outsiders in the eyes of the locals.
After a brief confrontation at the city gate, the nobles in the team also walked to the city gate one after another, as if to put pressure on them.
"The governor has an order. No army is allowed to enter Beida City without an order from the governor's office!
Since you are from northern Xinjiang and do not know the rules of Beida City, I will not hold you accountable this time. "
The middle-aged officer guarding the city said righteously. It can be seen from the contemptuous expression that he is not very interested in the group of northern nobles in front of him.
Originally, he just wanted an explanation and was not planning to cause trouble. However, after being so provoked by the middle-aged officer, all the northern nobles were instantly angered.
But this anger went away even faster as it came. Everyone is not a fool. Knowing that the other party intends to provoke them, they will not jump in stupidly.
If we really get into an armed conflict with the defenders here over such a trivial matter, no matter how good the reason is, it will become unreasonable in the end.
I saw a young man, about 27 or 27 years old, walking up to the middle-aged officer and asking, "We are all nobles of the kingdom.
I have been ordered by the king to come to the southeastern province and seal it. Now I am going to visit Governor Pierce. You are blocking me here and not letting me in. Could it be that you don't take His Majesty the King and the Governor seriously? "
