103 The Rebel Army Goes North! Sima City Has Fallen! (3.4) Ask For Subscription

"How long before the conscript party arrives at our place?"

Richard looked at Garcia.

Garcia said: "The conscription team is preparing to notify the noble territories along the border one by one, and it will take a few days before we arrive here."

"The conscription team conscripts like this, how about some nobles who were chased away by horse thieves, killed, or sold their territories?"

asked Dorothy.

Garcia shook her head: "I don't know about that yet.

It's normal for her not to know.

After all, she is not from the human kingdom.

I don’t know some of the laws and regulations of the human kingdom.

"Come on, tell Fred to come over."

Richard said.

Soon, Fred came over.

The Baron Richard was bought.

Fred is the real baron in this world.

Moreover, Fred was one of the better barons. Not only was he knowledgeable, but his daughter was also quite good.

"Fred, the king has sent a draft party.

Richard told Fred about the King's Conscript.

Fred listened in silence.

After listening, he seemed to know what Richard wanted to ask.

Without waiting for Richard to open his mouth, Fred said: "Lord, in fact, whenever there is a big battle, the king will send a conscription team. Under normal circumstances, a baron like me who sold his territory doesn't care whether to cut it or not." The conscription team doesn't care about it. If you don't want to lose your title, you can pay 100 gold coins to the king.

And like some barons who are too poor to raise an army, if they don’t want to be degraded, they must either pay part of the money to the king or take part of their territory on their own.

As for those dead barons, they are all dead, so naturally there is nothing to worry about. "

After listening to Fred's words, Richard said: "Is that so? If it is my territory, what standard will the conscription team use?"

Fred said: "The lord's territory is richer than that of some viscounts, and the army owned by the lord has already reached the upper limit of the baron's army. If the conscription team comes, it is likely to be recruited according to the highest specification. Plus there might be fines.”

"Ticket?"

Richard asked.

Fred said: "Yes, lord, in normal times, the baron can only have an army of no more than 500 people. In wartime like now, the baron has the qualification to temporarily expand the official army to less than 2,000 people. But , The lord's army has already exceeded, so the officials of the conscription team are likely to issue a fine. The fine is generally 10 silver coins per person.

Richard looked at Fred, Fred had reminded him of this before, but Richard didn't care.

Now that Fred mentioned this again, the solution will definitely be said next.

Sure enough, after talking about this, Fred immediately said again: "But lord, this is a border area, there are not so many rules, and there are many solutions. For example, when the conscription team arrives, temporarily disperse the army, and only keep a few hundred or promote the title after making military exploits, or present some rare things to the king, and the simplest way is to bribe the officials of the conscription team."

"Buy the officials?"

Richard whispered.

Sure enough, no matter where, corruption exists.

Fred said: "Yes, lord, as long as the gold coins are given, the conscription team can recruit according to the lowest standard, and the lord can even send some random people to fool them."

"Okay, I see, Fred."

Richard said to Fred.

"Then I'm going down to settle the refugees, lord."

Fred said.

Richard gave a faint "hmm".

Fred backed away.

Richard returned to the castle and thought about it.

He is different from the nobles of this world.

As a time traveler, Richard doesn't have much sense of belonging to the king.

Richard would definitely not want the army he had built up so hard to be conscripted by the king to fight.

"We'll wait until the conscription team arrives."

After thinking for a while, Richard proposed a lot of calendars.

Richard didn't change the tempo just because the draft team was coming.

He continued to gather refugees and officially named his city.

Well, Richard's city has been established for so long, and it still doesn't have a name yet.

Out of love for the Bauhinia flower, Richard named the city he built Bauhinia City.

This name, in terms of homophony, is similar to the previous name after crossing, and it sounds quite imposing!

In the current city, there are also a lot of redbuds planted in the flower beds everywhere, which look quite beautiful.

Although this world is a different world, its language is quite similar to the language Richard used before time travel.

Of course, there are still big differences, such as pronunciation, such as the writing of some words.

In addition, the languages ​​of different regions are also quite different, and the language of the orcs also has a lot of differences.

However, what is taught in Richard’s school is formally taught according to the Chinese language before the time travel. From childhood, let the children of this world come into contact with square characters from an early age.

After naming his city, Richard hung up the city card made on a certain treasure.

The words "Bauhinia City" were written by Richard himself. His calligraphy is good. When the city plaque was hung up, many netizens in the live broadcast room were amazed by Richard's words.

"The anchor's calligraphy is so good!"

"There are more and more skills."

"It's over, watching the anchor every day makes me want to get pregnant."

And not long after the city plaque of Bauhinia City was put up, a team of hundreds of people drove towards the northeast direction.

This is the king's conscription team.

The number of conscription teams is quite large, there are a hundred soldiers in it, and each of these soldiers has a horse. In addition, there is an official in charge and several auxiliary officials.

"After notifying these barons on the border, we can go back."

In the conscription team, a middle-aged official with a tired face said.

"Sir John, I heard that the rebel army in the east is going north. If we go back, we'd better go west.

Beside the headed middle-aged official, another official said.

"Well, I have to inform these nobles that it is best for them to take refuge in Sima City. I hope that thousands of soldiers can be recruited this time, so that Sima City will be safe. As long as Sima City and other big cities are there, the Northeast The situation in the region will not deteriorate too much."

Said the middle-aged official Sir John.

A jazz is not a nobleman, but a person who has made some meritorious deeds or done some useful things, and is rewarded with land by the king. Jazz cannot be hereditary.

"However, these nobles on the border suffered heavy losses under the attack of horse thieves. I don't know if they can recruit so many soldiers."

said another official.

After the conscription team walked a little further, a pigeon flew over in the sky.

"It's a carrier pigeon!"

In the conscription team, a soldier whistled, and the carrier pigeon quickly flew to the soldier's hand.

The soldier untied a letter box from the carrier pigeon's foot, and inside it was a small piece of parchment rolled up.

"My lord, please take a look."

The soldier handed the little paper to Sir John.

Sir John took the small piece of paper, and after looking at it, his face changed drastically.

"What's wrong?"

asked the officer next to him.

"A rebel army suddenly went north and is attacking Sima City!"

Sir John arrives.

The faces of other officials also changed drastically after hearing this.

"Go, let's go back and check the situation first. If the situation here changes, we must report to the king as soon as possible!"

said Sir John.

So, this conscription team returned in a hurry before reaching Richard's territory.

Sima City is a large-scale city in the northeast region, hundreds of kilometers away from Richard's territory.

There are also some smaller cities in the Northeast, many of which were founded by nobles.

Well, generally a city with a population of more than 1,000 people can be regarded as a smaller city, and further down is a town.

Just like the Viscount Ead who was eyeing Richard, there is a small city of one or two thousand people not too far away from his castle. After Richard broke through the castle of the Viscount Ede last time, he didn't care about the defense. Not a great little city.

Like the Bauhinia City built by Richard, it is already considered a medium-sized city in the relatively remote and barren Northeast region.

Sima City has a large population of 70,000 to 80,000, and there are also many troops stationed there, with a total of 5,000 people.

This city is under the management of the kingdom, that is, the king, not any single nobleman.

There are many nobles in the Northeast who have residences in Sima City.

Many of the glass cups that Richard sold to the merchants before were sold to Sima City by the merchants.

And Baron Ted, who sold the title and territory to Richard, also has a high possibility of moving to live in Sima City.

When Sir John and the others received the news, dense crowds of people had already surrounded the city of Sima.

These people wore tattered clothes and held simple weapons in their hands. Many of them could not see any food on their faces, and it seemed that many people had suffered from hunger.

They looked at Xima City, full of longing.

"There must be a lot of food in this city."

These people thought one after another.

"Sima City, we are finally here."

Behind the dense crowd, a group of people stood on a high ground, looking towards Sima City.

"General Rieger, when the rebel army in the south absorbs the firepower of the king's army, we will take down Sima City, and then take down the entire northeast region as our base to strengthen our strength. Wait until the king wipes out those rebel armies At that time, we had already established a firm foothold in the Northeast region. The king must have suffered a lot of losses if he wanted to wipe out the larger rebel armies. He might not be willing to fight with us. Hou Jiajue!"

Among the group of people, a man who looked like a military adviser in a green robe said.

………seeking flowers… 0

The object of this man's speech was a burly man wearing an armor.

The beard on this man's face looked rather sturdy.

This is the leader of this rebel army, a guy who calls himself General Rigg.

General Rigg looked at Sima City, which was waiting in full formation, and gave the order to attack: "Attack!"

"Woo~"

Immediately, some people blew their horns.

Immediately afterwards, closely

Ma's rebel army rushed to Sima City.

The fighting of these insurgents had no rules at all.

Their equipment is also very simple, and most of them don't even have shields.

Even if there are shields, there are only some ordinary wooden shields.

Their fighting style is also very simple, that is, rushing forward.

But they did bring a lot of ladders.

In Sima City, the horn of battle sounded.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of soldiers appeared on the walls of Sima City, and launched a counterattack with bows, arrows, spears, and stones.

The poorly equipped rebel army suffered heavy losses.

But after starving for a long time, these rebels were eager for food, and the leader of the rebels, General Rigg, told them that there was enough food in the city.

Therefore, these rebels rushed towards Sima city one after another.

On the high ground, General Rieger and his staff members looked coldly at the rebels rushing towards Sima City to die, with no expression on their faces at all.

These insurgents are nothing but a tool used by this guy who claims to be a general to achieve his goal.

0..........

These few of his staff are quite strategic.

They calculated that the rebel army could not accomplish anything.

Although the current rebel army is very lively and blooming everywhere, once the kingdom and nobles face it squarely and arm the army, they will be able to wipe out these rebel army within a year at most.

Therefore, their purpose is not to overthrow the king's rule at all.

It's not like other insurgents just robbed food everywhere.

They wanted to use these insurgents to attack the relatively remote northeast region when the king had no time to worry about it, and knock it down and turn it into their territory.

After the kings and nobles have spent a lot of money to suppress the rebels in other regions, they may not be willing to confront them head-on.

At this time, anyway, they have killed all the nobles in the Northeast region, so they can take advantage of the opportunity to raise conditions.

And when the king is unwilling to fight anymore, he will probably adopt the strategy of absorbing the enemies into his camp and canonize them as new nobles.

At that time, General Rieger will at least say that he can get an earl, or even a marquis, and his core subordinates can also receive some noble titles.

That's what they are for.

In troubled times, heroes emerge.

They are quite visionary careerists in this troubled world, and they dare to change their own destiny through such methods.

After all, if it weren't for the current situation, it would be difficult for them to become nobles.

Don't look at Richard's simple change to a baron, but Baron Ted might not even think of selling the territory and title to the other party.

Above the viscount, it cannot be transferred at all, and it is impossible to buy it with money.

This battle lasted for a day and a night. The rebel army suffered heavy casualties, and the defenders of Xima City suffered a lot.

On the second day, with the superiority of the rebel army in numbers and their fearless offensive, a section of the weakly defended city wall was finally breached by them.

Immediately afterwards, a tide of insurgents rushed in from there, established a bridgehead there, and the defenders of Xima City launched a fierce battle.

During this process, due to the spread of some legends of burning, killing and looting by the rebel army, tens of thousands of citizens of Xima City fled from other city gates, and some wealthy nobles and businessmen also escaped.

They all fled.

When the conscription team rushed back to Sima City, the flag of the rebel army had already been planted on the top of Sima City.

However, the battle is not over yet, and the defenders of Sima City are still stubbornly resisting.

It's just that the thousands of defenders in Xima City can't stop it, and even if all the one hundred soldiers of the conscription team are thrown in, it won't help at all.

"It's over!"

Sir John, the officer at the head of the conscription party, was pale.

After fighting for a long time, finally, the defenders of Xima City couldn't stop them, and were completely rushed into the city by the rebels.

However, in the city at this time, a large number of wealthy nobles and businessmen have already fled.

"Escape? Let them escape. We still have a lot of people on the southern front. They can't escape to the south, they can only escape to the northeast. The northeast is the kingdom of orcs. They dare not escape. Hmph, east

The northern area has been surrounded by us, they can't escape very far, first stabilize Xima City, and then send people to sweep around, all the nobles, catch one and kill one, and take the Northeast area

If we kill all the nobles, there will be no more nobles in this area, and we will have enough territory to reward after we confer marquis and marques!"

General Rieger said coldly after receiving the news that the nobles and businessmen had fled. .
