Lord of the North

Francis City, the administrative center of the north, has now developed into a large and prosperous city with more than 30,000 permanent legions, instead of a town with less than 10,000 soldiers and civilians as before.

This is also the residence of the World Mercenary Association, the birthplace of the top mercenary organizations, not far from the northern gambling city of Erbia.

The poor civilians who used to live here have become rich at this moment because of Jason's generous policies, and they followed the Francis Chamber of Commerce to become the local merchant class.

Although it is not as good as those who seized the opportunity to obtain the honorary title of nobleman, it is still much better than before.

Today, outside the city gate of the heart of the north, a group of people covered in long robes ushered in. The man in the middle raised his head and looked at the city wall, which had been reinforced and raised a lot, and the gate. The long line outside was filled with emotion: "It's really not easy. This is the first time I have this feeling of going home."

These people were of course Jason and the Spartans, because Jason wanted to relax and take a good tour of the northern scenery on the way back to Francis City, so they hid their armor and weapons with robes, Seventeen of the one hundred Spartans who served as Jason's bodyguards were killed in this war, which made him sad for a long time.

"The change is really big." Cu Chulainn murmured while looking at the city. He didn't stay in the city for a long time, and was soon taken by Jason to the Halauia Empire for an appointment.

"Let's go, let's go in and take a look." Before he left, the city was handed over to Mr. Dia. One of those loyal to Jason.

Although his son was only a knight, and he himself didn't even have a title, no one dared to underestimate him. In the north under Jason's rule, the nobles did not have such great privileges.

Now they only have the management and taxation rights of their own territory, but no ownership and conscription rights. Even if they have some privileges, they will not be too outrageous. In order to restrain these nobles, Jason even set up a joint court.

However, there is such a big gap between the northern nobles and the southern nobles, but none of the nobles wants to leave the north and join Phil. It is entirely because after Jason took over the north, they vigorously developed water transportation and commercial activities, although their rights have shrunk. , but the wealth they have accumulated is even greater.

It's just that I don't know how the old man Diya has been in these years. You must know that the old man is almost seventy years old.

A group of people lined up at the back of the line and followed the line slowly.

It may be because there are too many mercenaries coming in and out on weekdays. The guards at the city gate did not question them too much when they saw their faces. They simply told them some things to pay attention to after entering the city, especially the absolute You cannot enter the inner city with weapons.

The so-called inner city is Iron Tooth Town at the beginning, and later the city expanded, and it became the most important inner city, because Jason's castle is there, and only the earliest aborigines and some dignitaries lived in the inner city Inside, and the land price here is also the most expensive.

You can't even buy it now.

After Cu Chulainn entered the city, he kept frowning. He said softly to Jason, "Your Highness, the city gate guards are too perfunctory, right? What if we are not mercenaries, but enemies with ulterior motives?"

When they entered the city just now, a Spartan soldier said that they were members of the mercenary regiment, and then the guards didn't even check their mercenary certificates, they just asked a few words and let them in.

"It's a little loose. It reminds me of the earliest Iron Fang Town Guard." Jason squinted and said, the former Iron Fang Town Guard was a group of undisciplined miscellaneous soldiers.

The long-term stable and peaceful life gradually made these people lose their sense of tension.

Only three years have passed,

Have the people here forgotten the hardships of the past? The current military chief of Francis City should be Leonidas, who is responsible for managing here and controlling the military power of Erbia.

Because Irbia was originally an acropolis of the city of Francis, which served as a barrier ahead to avoid being caught off guard due to lack of preparation when the enemy appeared, so the military there was later managed by the city of Francis.

The managers of Erbia are Lang Nat and Kai, one is in charge of the army and the other is in charge of government affairs.

Thinking of this, Jason's expression turned ugly. What are Leonidas and Lang Nat doing? !

"Your Highness, shall we go back to the castle first?" Seeing Jason's ugly face, Hassan asked softly. He felt that there might be something hidden in it. Leonidas and the others couldn't be so unreliable in their actions.

"No, first go to the head office of the mercenary guild to find out about the situation." The mercenary guild was completely run by Jason. At first, Lang Nat was the manager, but he later resigned from this position.

It is still managed by Jason's direct subordinates. One of them is Yaos, who is called the tiger of mercenaries in the mercenary world. The earliest leader of the mercenary group is a legendary mercenary who once participated in In the civil war in a small country in the west, he led his mercenary group to successfully help the small royal family put down the rebellion, and he was a strong knight under Jason's command.

Not long after, Jason read the information given by Yaos with a gloomy expression. In front of him stood the legendary mercenary Yaos, and behind him were Hassan and Cu Chulainn.

"Earl Zaogu..." He looked at the name on the intelligence report with murderous intent. This person was entrusted to temporarily manage the outer city of Francis when Leonidas and others led troops to the front line, but did not Thinking that after the war Leonidas discovered that this man had secretly corrupted the governing bodies of the Outer City.

And he used the power in his hands to amass a lot of money, but his hands and feet were too clean, Leonidas and the others didn't find the little tail at all, so they never had any excuse to touch him.

Moreover, this Earl Zaogu is the second batch of nobles who have taken refuge in Jason, and he has brought a lot of help to Jason. His identity is very sensitive, and Jason is not here, so Leonida and the others really did not touch him. s right.

"It seems that I haven't been back for three years, and some people have already had thoughts that they shouldn't have."

"Because of the huge benefits of the outer city, a group of nobles gathered around Earl Zaogu. If you move him, it will be very troublesome." Yaos said respectfully.

"Trouble? The blood on the soldiers' blades hasn't been wiped off yet." Jason sneered.
