Lord of War
Thirty-two. Riot
The Royal Capital of Ryan is a city with a permanent population of 200,000, and the surrounding population flow generated by the operation of the city is more than 100,000, so the actual active population of the Royal Capital of Ryan is usually Around three hundred thousand.
In the territory of those big kingdoms and empires, a city like the capital of Lane King can only be regarded as a big city, but on Lane's side, it is already the city with the largest population in the entire territory. Even in the second largest city, the active population is only around 200,000—basically, after a city's active population reaches 100,000, it will be very difficult to increase it.
Even if Neil personally designed and planned the Void City, which can satisfy a resident population of 100,000, there are only 50,000 to 60,000 people so far. This is still counting the data of the active population flow. In fact, the resident population is only about 40,000 people.
So the scale of King Ryan's capital can be imagined.
At this time, a huge carriage with a unique shape, surrounded by thirty guards, slowly passed the Evergreen Suspension Bridge of the Royal Capital—this suspension bridge is a jumping bridge located outside the main city gate of Lay Burns, and it was built by itself. This suspension bridge has never been raised since its inception, and now it is covered with green plants, so it is also called the Evergreen Suspension Bridge by the residents of the capital.
Under normal circumstances, there will be a team of about 30 guards standing guard on the Changqing Suspension Bridge.
However, this time is a special period, so there are at least hundreds of soldiers in charge of guarding.
But even if additional manpower has been sent to the main city gate, in fact, it can only barely maintain order. Most of the time there is still some confusion. After all, the people who are going to the capital at this time are either the nobles who own the territory, or the powerful people who have a certain strength and try to come here to try their luck. On the whole, the kings at this time are more mixed than before.
Fortunately, these guards have not encountered fools so far, so even if there is occasional confusion, they can basically maintain rational restraint. Moreover, for the vast majority of nobles, quarreling at the gate of the royal capital is really detrimental to their status; as for the strong, they disdain to have any conflicts with ordinary soldiers, let alone the main city gate where the Evergreen Suspension Bridge is located. The sanctuary strong man sitting in the tower is not just in a daze.
Today, the commander in charge of the Evergreen Suspension Bridge team is an old soldier.
He has spent ten years in the army since the day he joined the army, and he has participated in several wars of a certain size. The most recent one was the war with the Darbion Kingdom a few years ago. Because he had a relatively outstanding performance in that war, he was promoted from the local army to the king's army after that war, and the rank of the army alone has been raised by a full level, not to mention that he is still a capable The captain in charge of hundreds of soldiers.
Old Wood was very satisfied with this.
However, if he had to say that he was dissatisfied, it was probably because the national celebration was getting closer, so the work he was in charge of now was more stressful.
Because if he does this job well, the superior may give him some praise or rewards when he is happy, but if he does not do well and something unexpected happens, then it is a trivial matter to be dismissed. Once things get serious, you may even have to pay your own life for it. At least he saw it with his own eyes. A colleague who was drinking with him a few nights ago had an accident the next day because he was in charge of guarding the Changqing Suspension Bridge. As a result, he is still in prison.
When he went to visit this colleague yesterday, he found that he was only half alive, and now he was receiving "very good" care in prison.
This made Old Wood more cautious and careful, and he took his work a lot more seriously.
The team passing through the Evergreen Suspension Bridge from the city gate is slowly moving forward.
Old Wood looked at such a situation. A kind of relief was written all over his face. He looked up at the sky, and the team for the shift change would come over in a short while, and then he would have two days of rest—the closer it was to the end, the more difficult it would be for an old military veteran like Old Wood. It is dangerous, so this rare rest naturally makes people feel extra excited and excited.
He just had to pray that nothing unexpected happened at this last moment.
only. Lady luck doesn't seem to be on his side today.
A commotion sounded from the suspension bridge and began to gradually expand.
Old Wood was startled immediately. Because in his eyes, the team that was originally like a long black dragon shook off countless dragon scales as if they were seriously injured. Dozens of guards nearby also showed frightened expressions, because the results of the riots a few days ago are still vivid in my mind. Stop the spread of this riot.
"What's going on!" shouted a soldier.
More than a dozen soldiers have already clenched their spears, ready to fight at any time—in fact, this so-called battle is nothing more than a killing. Facing ordinary people, they are naturally sure to win. Even if they are facing mercenary groups or other teams, as long as they are not very strong or have a small number of people, they can still suppress them with military formation tactics.
But if they meet those real strong opponents, then they will be the one to be slaughtered.
So this so-called fighting is simply a way of bullying the weak.
Pushing away the chaotic crowd, the dozen or so soldiers were stunned on the spot.
Because in front of them is an unusually large and strong black ground dragon, restlessly venting something, and there is a woman beside him who is constantly comforting. But what really shocked them was not the unusual earth-moving dragon and the young woman who was comforting it, but the surrounding of the carriage pulled by the earth-moving dragon. The thirty or so guards in cloaks.
From the location of these people around and the iron-blooded aura emanating from their bodies, the dozen or so soldiers knew that these people were soldiers just like them. And I'm afraid they are far more elite troops than them, just looking at them from afar. These dozens of soldiers already knew that if any conflict broke out between the two sides, the team they were responsible for maintaining the order of the Evergreen Suspension Bridge would definitely not be their opponent.
And travel can have such an elite force as a guard. The people in this carriage are obviously not simple either.
Of course, after these soldiers looked at the special carriage, they became more determined about this guess. Because from this carriage, they saw many strong and strong military features, and this military feature is usually a high-end product that can only be obtained in more intense war zones.
The soldiers who were still intimidating the civilians who were about to enter the city did not even dare to show their anger when faced with such a group of people who were obviously of extraordinary background.
Just at this moment, Old Wood finally caught up with the others—the order ahead had been re-stabilized by him. From this point of view, Old Wood's ability is indeed not bad. And after catching up to this moment, he has already started to arrange some people to maintain the riot that spread to the rear. As for the small group of people in the middle who were rioting, facing the soldiers who were gradually gathering around, they finally stopped. commotion.
In many cases, for these civilians who have no strength or background. When seeing the local army in the capital, it can still give them a strong sense of security.
Only this time, these civilians didn't notice the sweat that kept coming out of the commander Old Wood's forehead.
Even the group of veterans under him could see the extraordinaryness of the owner of this carriage, how could he, a veteran who had participated in many wars, not see it.
So he didn't dare to be too tough. Now that the national celebration was getting closer, the identities of many of the visitors were becoming more and more noble. If they accidentally offended some important person. Then his results can be imagined. So after a brief silence, Old Wood finally mustered up the courage to step forward. He had to ask what was going on. Of course, the most important thing was that he couldn't let the commotion continue.
Old Wood had only just taken a step, though. He felt a gloomy chill that almost completely froze him.
What a strong murderous intent!
Old Wood, who had been in the army for ten years, was shocked. It is more and more certain that these soldiers are not simple.
This carriage is naturally the one Sean commandeered.
Sean, who was sitting in the carriage, glanced at the soldier who was walking towards him. From his body, Sean saw the traces of many veterans in the army, and seeing the appearance of the soldiers around him, Sean knew that This veteran is the leader of the group. It's just that he's not in a good mood right now, and of course he won't give the other party any good looks.
For the people in the capital, they all think that they are superior to people in other places, so when they first saw that the dragons here are different, although most people felt a little scary, it was just because of the hypocrisy. It was only because of their face that they tried their best to keep calm. But this kind of calm doesn't mean that they are really not afraid, especially this carriage looks either rich or expensive, and there are so many scary guards.
Originally, all of this was actually not that big of a problem, after all, both sides maintained some kind of restraint in each other. But it wasn't until the appearance of a bear child that these things finally deteriorated. The sub-dragon individuals like the earth dragon are extremely energetic, so they are naturally active. Under normal circumstances, it is not right to let them stay quietly. It's an easy task, if it weren't for the fact that Black Stone now has an owner, no one would be able to stop this behemoth that is prone to anxiety.
From the beginning, Sean didn't think about showing any privileges, so he naturally queued with the public. Although the other citizens were a little scared at first, they didn't let this fear turn into agitation until a daring brat appeared.
This brat actually threw a stone at the black stone!
Heishi, who could only move slowly on the Changqing Suspension Bridge because of the huge crowd, seemed very anxious, but after being thrown a stone by this child, Heishi was about to run away on the spot, and after a roar, he was about to bite someone. If it hadn't been for Rina to stop, the brat and his family would definitely not have survived, but even if there was no blood splashed on the spot, the family would still be a little scared.
At this time, after the commander came over, the family had already begun to exaggerate the evilness and terror of Black Stone and his ferocity, and even tried to arouse public pressure.
Seeing these clown-like actions, Xiao En frowned more and more. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users, please go to read.)
