Knight of the Light

Xi Li left abruptly, leaving Zhou Qingfeng with no one to talk to. Although Kelly was willing to hang in front of him, there was a gap between the two after all, and they couldn't communicate. Not to mention he was staring at every move.

Lying on the bed, dying all around, Zhou Qingfeng recalled his one day experience, and after discussing with Professor Zheng in his mind, he finally made a decision—thousands of hidden servants and ghosts rushed out of him and rushed towards him. The whole cold wind city.

Early the next morning, Zhou Qingfeng left the main residence of the city to go to the military camp. There is an information network, no one can cut off his connection with his subordinates, and no one can block him from understanding the situation in the city. Audible reports and field investigations are two different things.

Coldwind City is extremely decaying. Because of the famine, the nobles sent slaves and soldiers to the streets to maintain order, and blocked the hungry residents in a few small areas. There is no relief, no management, let it die.

The streets were empty, except for the soldiers on alert, only the trailers carrying the bodies passed by. Yesterday, it was lucky to be able to squeeze into the city to see the liveliness, and is a vassal of the city's wealthy and powerful. The real bottom is now waiting to die in a dark corner.

Kelly rode a pony to accompany Zhou Qingfeng, pointing to a street not far away, and said, "I was there to accept the call of 'Dark Sun'. At that time, Cold Wind City was not so bad. The street was quite lively. . "

The halfling girl refers to a run-down hotel, and the streets where it is located have traces of fire, and most of the streets have been burned. Some say that the poor fired and caught fire, and some said that the poor set fire to their lives. In short, no one cleaned up the scene of the fire.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes passing by from time to time, people on both sides of the street shouted and rushed out, crying for food and drink. The soldiers guarding the street would carry them back with a spear without hesitation, so the whole street was cried and screamed.

According to Yinfu's investigation, there are hungry people waiting to be killed and corpses left dead on the streets. "Shengying" turned his head and looked around. As a dead soul, he sighed, "It is more painful to live in this city than to die."

In the direction of the barracks, the team at Harmony Village couldn't keep up. The small team stayed in the barracks, and they tried to solve it by themselves, without relying on outsiders or letting outsiders enter easily. But last night, many things happened in the barracks.

"Last night, some people brought us food and drinks in the name of the long-legged family. We checked according to the regulations and determined that the food was intentionally poisoned." Lu Ke, who was in charge of the team, saw Zhou Qingfeng and reported the matter to the person.

Zhou Qingfeng already knew last night. At this moment, when he looks at the wine and meat in a few baskets, he can't help laughing. "His Lord Lehman is quite willing to spend money. He actually sent us so many dark breads, and even bad wine and Jerky. "

In the small black room of the barracks was a servant who came to deliver food last night. As soon as they were frightened, they did everything-unsurprisingly, it was sent by Deputy City Lord Lehman. Very simple strategy, but very practical.

Passenger forces from elsewhere often lack logistics and discipline, and must rely on local power to provide supplies. Not to mention the soldiers, it was the knight master who was hungry, and when he saw wine and meat, he rushed to grab them.

But Zhou Qingfeng brought his own dry food, and even the team had a cook. He also took Justin's disciples as medical staff and matched them with self-sufficient wells in the barracks.

Even the lowest-level staff in the priest have mastered such tricks as 'detecting toxicity' and 'purifying food'. The poisonous food sent by the enemy can be eaten into the stomach safely after simple purification.

Luke continued: "Last night someone walked outside our barracks and even a team tried to break in. The enemy probably felt that we should be poisoned and confused, and wanted to come in and kill a wave.

Without holding the barracks, the other side's plot failed. Hundreds of hungry and dizzy residents wanted to hit our defense line this morning. The number was hundreds. We shot and killed a few hiding behind them, and they retreated. "

The dead body was dragged into the barracks. After being identified by the group who delivered the food last night, it was the family of the Knights of Harding. Including his two sons and a son-in-law.

Such a simple move was really piercing at first glance, but Luke and others were all worried. They recalled the danger last night, and they all felt that if they had changed to a different team to face it, they would have been killed and wounded.

"The revenge among the nobles is this kind of routine, either poisoning or driving the poor ghosts." Adrian is very familiar with these things, "the average team can't control the soldiers at all, and few people fail.

Discipline, discipline, Zhou Qingfeng emphasized one hundred times, it is better to help the enemy to emphasize it again. For the first time, this group of people intuitively felt the benefits of discipline-facing the evil tricks such as poisoning and bewilderment, changing the other team has long died.

These situations were notified in real time. Zhou Qingfeng saw with his own eyes that he was both proud and frightened. He once again emphasized the role of discipline to all members of the team, especially the grass-roots commanders, so as to prevent the troops that had been pulled out from death to die.

In addition to external affairs, it is internal affairs of the army. In yesterday's duel, five guarded spearmen succeeded in stimulating the integration of runes and bodies. Their power, speed, and agility have been comprehensively improved, and they have become a first-class fighter.

Zhou Qingfeng saved Alpha's life with a precious 'healing potion'. This kid ate a big meal last night and basically recovered after a night's sleep.

This incident stimulated the enthusiasm and loyalty of the entire team. They had heated discussions last night, and they even got up to practice training this morning.

In order to reward Alpha for daring to face a strong enemy, he would rather die. Zhou Qingfeng gave him the ‘mud weird tongue spear’ he ’s been wearing for a long time—this weapon has played a great role, but now it ’s a bit outdated and just happens to be used as a gift.

Zhou Qingfeng took off the ‘tongue spear’ in public and gave it to Alpha, and the other jealous eyes were staring out. This dalit-born soldier cried for this and vowed to remain loyal to Victor Hugo and his descendants forever.

After dealing with this, Zhou Qingfeng continued to ask Luke, "Is there anything else?"

"Yes, in addition to the rioters who were bewildered and shocked this morning, a group of artisans from the city came to us. The team was led by Wilson, the artisan chairman of the Cold Wind City, who had worked with us in the Black Forest before.

Wilson?

Zhou Qingfeng originally took the waste wood of Heinuma Village to grab the goblin transport convoy, and rescued several Cold Wind Craftsmen who were hijacked by the Church of Bann. In later battles, the trebuchets and heavy crossbows directed by these artisans played a significant role.

In the decisive battle with the Church of Bann, artisan leader Wilson was seriously injured and returned to Cold Wind City after the war. He was never heard of again. With the guidance of Luke, Zhou Qingfeng met the old friend again at the barracks.

"Hugo ..., lord." Wilson was a middle-aged man, even tortured by goblins. But now, he stood tremblingly from a chair, took a few steps and threw himself to his knees.

"Master, please help us." Wilson lay on the ground, his head chaotically hitting the ground. He seemed to be more than a dozen years old, and the whole human figure was dead and unpretentious.

Zhou Qingfeng didn't immediately pull people, only frowned and asked Luke, "What's going on?"

Luke sighed, "The old long legs have ambitions, but the aristocracy in the city is unwilling to fight, and the deputy city leader Lehman takes the lead to control the sale of food in the city, leading to famine.

The aristocracy struggled for power, and the poor were the poor. A large number of people were blocked in the city and neither escaped nor received relief. Even these precious artisans cannot survive. "

"Taking our own food ..." Zhou Qingfeng was about to order.

Luke quickly whispered: "Sir, there are a lot of these artisans. There are more than our team, with four or five hundred. We're afraid we can't afford them, we can only accommodate a few."

The distance between them was close, and Wilson could hear it clearly. He raised his head weakly, with only pleading and sorrow in his eyes. He had sought countless powers, but no one was always willing to help.

Zhou Qingfeng still didn't look at Wilson on his knees, but said clearly: "Contain artisans and their families, and pull them to the barracks. As for the food, there will be soon."

Luke froze, and Wilson was ecstatic. Since the lord said that there would be food, it would definitely be there. Luke also doesn't care where the food comes from, but he knows that his boss always counts, and has never made a false statement.

Wilson heard Zhou Qingfeng's willingness to contain himself, and immediately choked with tears. A man who has lived for decades is as embarrassed as a child, as if he has been wronged by Mo. Only at this moment is he taken care of by his parents.

At this moment, Zhou Qingfeng calmed his tone and pulled Wilson off the ground. "I don't contain you for nothing, but I also need you to pay for it. Come and tell me about the recent situation."
