Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

At nine o'clock in the morning, the army set off.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the 15th Army arrived in the port city of Beilin City.

At the south city gate, Hawthorn Mileris, leader of the 87th Life Church Prayer Group of the Crusaders, looked serious and inspected the welcoming team again.

On both sides of the welcoming team were the leaders of Beilin City's large and small forces.

Although I don't know why the general stationed in Beilin City is so crazy, these people don't have the guts to disobey his orders.

Looking at the three hundred Crusaders he had carefully selected, Hawthorn Mileris nodded with satisfaction.

My cousin who was far away in Knuckles City told me in a letter that the commander of the 15th Army had a great background and asked him to entertain him well, maybe he could take this opportunity to get some benefits.

"Master, here we come."

Hawthorn raised his head and looked at the figure in the distance, put his helmet on straightly, and carefully wiped the pattern on the left side of the breastplate to show his best side.

After a while, the former army arrived at the gate of Beilin City.

"stop."

At the front of the team, Hebrew waved his hand and gave orders.

In the shouts of the messengers, the order was conveyed to the rear.

Hawthorn took three steps forward, put his right hand on his chest, bent down to salute, and said loudly: "Beilin City garrison general Hawthorn Mileris has met your Excellency."

After more than two months of study, the leaders of the various forces on both sides of the Crusaders could barely understand the common language. They all raised their ears, hoping to hear useful information in order to curry favor with these officers from the Ilia Expeditionary Corps. Consolidate your own power.

"General Hawthorne, it will take half an hour for my master to arrive here."

"Thank you sir for the reminder, I understand."

As a high-level silver knight, he may be a figure in his hometown, but here, he has to be careful.

If it weren't for this holy war of faith, he would probably still be just a frog in the well.

Although he was a count in his hometown, he was nothing here.

In less than a moment, he heard the sound of horse hooves approaching from far away. Hawthorn quickly looked up and saw a black-haired young man riding a red phosphorus horse appearing in his sight.

According to the description in the letter, Hawthorn recognized the person at a glance and quickly stepped forward to greet him, trying to hold the reins of the horse.

However, looking at the strange human being in front of her, Xiao Hong was not very friendly. She snorted and took a few steps back with some resistance.

"Okay, stop making trouble." Weilin said softly.

After hearing her master's words, Xiao Hong reluctantly stopped, but still looked at the weak human in front of her arrogantly, and then used magic power to lift the reins and send it to the other person's hands.

Seeing this situation, Hawthorn felt a little silent in his heart, but his movements were not slow, holding the reins in his hands.

If you are weak, you have to bow your head.

I remembered what I once said to the vassal nobles under my command, but now it happened to me.

Weilin got off the red phosphorus horse and waved to a silver intermediate knight, asking him to lead Xiao Hong down.

"General Hawthorne, Xiaohong is a little shy, I hope you don't mind."

"Your Excellency Wei Lin, this subordinate knows." Hawthorne replied respectfully.

Seeing the forced smile on the other person's face, Weilin ended the topic and said, "General Hawthorne, how about you take me to see Beilin City?"

"This is my subordinate's honor. Please come with me, sir."

After Verin and Kyle left, Hebrew took over command of the troops and followed a group of Crusaders to the Beilin military camp.

Entering the city, the streets are very clean and tidy, but there are no residents.

"General Hawthorne, I want to know how many people there are in Beilin City."

Upon hearing Weilin's inquiry, Hawthorn took out a document and presented it with both hands: "My lord, please take a look."

Taking the form from Hawthorne, looking at the data above, it was a bit exaggerated, but when I thought about the exaggerated food crops, it felt very reasonable.

"General Hawthorne, how much grain can be collected in Beilin County every year?"

After hearing this, Hawthorn replied respectfully: "Reporting to your lord, according to the tax rate of the Kingdom of Anza, a tax of 95% is levied on food needs. In order to facilitate missionary work, Commander East reduced the tax rate to 80%, that is, Beilin County The annual grain tax revenue is 3.48 million tons of grain.”

Verin pointed to the next indicator and continued to ask: "Are these mines still operating?"

"According to the order issued by Commander East, small and medium-sized mines are handed over to locals for mining, and 70% of them will be collected every month. Large mines are handed over to the adults of the First Army, who will send troops to supervise the mining of prisoners."

After asking a few more questions, Verin returned the document to Hawthorne.

In the next few hours, Weilin and Kyle, under the guidance of Hawthorne, began to patrol Beilin City and visit the city.

As night fell, Hawthorn walked up to the gate of a luxurious manor, opened the door, and said respectfully: "Two adults, please come in."

With curiosity, Verin entered the manor.

After entering the manor, I saw more than twenty women standing in front of me, some mature and charming, some young and beautiful, and...

"Sir, these are provided by various forces in Beilin County. I hope you like them." Hawthorn pointed at the more than 20 women in front of him and said with a smile.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Verin turned to look at Kyle, smiled and teased: "Is there anyone you need?"

After hearing this, Kyle glanced at the group of women in front of him, shook his head, and refused: "There is no one I want."

Hearing this, Hosorn thought that the two adults were not satisfied with the women in front of them, and hurriedly said: "Please wait for a moment, I will go now..."

"General Hosorn, you misunderstood."

Thinking from another angle, Hosorn suddenly reacted, his expression became a little nervous, and asked carefully: "My lord, you are talking about..."

"I appreciate your kindness, but I don't have this hobby, send them all home."

"Yes, my lord."

Hosorn waved his hand and asked his subordinates to take these women out, and then led Weilin to the warehouse.

Pushing open the door and looking at the strange things inside, Weilin laughed and said, "General Hosorn, I accept this gift."

Hearing this, Hosorn breathed a sigh of relief, and a relieved smile appeared on his face. He replied, "As long as you like it."

"I will not interfere with the management of Beilin City. You will still be in charge, but I may arrange for my pastor to preach in the city."

"I should learn from you for always considering missionary affairs."

"Hahaha, okay, that's all for today, you go back first."

"Yes, sir, I'll take my leave."

After Hosorn and his men left the manor, twenty-four guards took over the guarding of the manor.
