Chapter 356 A lord! A government! An army! (33)
Howling Wilderness.
An elite white gull regiment of a thousand people lasted less than a minute before they were all killed.
There is only one person left alive.
There is no way, lining up in front of automatic rifles has the same effect as queuing up to shoot.
Fan Ganning was greatly shocked by the terrifying combat effectiveness of this strange army.
His archmage's firm will was completely shattered by Rosen's terrifying spells.
Under Rosen's questioning, he explained the current situation of Beluga Island like a bamboo tube pouring beans.
Just as Rosen guessed.
Six major families divide Beluga Island.
Each family has about 1,000 to 1,500 elites, and has about 100 high-end combat capabilities.
I don't know much about the progress of magic in the mainland. I have vaguely heard of terms such as flow and gravity, but I haven't understood it in depth.
Because without this new knowledge, the six major families could still rule the archipelago well.
In this case, why bother?
So Rosen made the final decision.
He stood on the high wall, looking down at Archmage Fan Ganning below.
"My idea is very simple, that is, on this archipelago, there can only be one lord! One government! One army!"
"If anyone doesn't agree with this, then I and my army will destroy him!"
There are only 500,000 people in total on one island. If they are divided into six parts and each work independently, how can he do anything important?
He was originally planning to take it slow, but ended up stretching his hips like this, so naturally he was rude.
Therefore, confiscating his wealth, disbanding his army, and depriving him of his glory became Rosen's new goals.
As for whether the current six major families will become wealthy ordinary people, or whether they will completely become the history of the archipelago, it depends on whether the other party is willing to cooperate.
Fan Ganning didn't expect Rosen to plan to do something so extreme, and was stunned on the spot for a moment.
Rosen had no patience to comfort his wounded heart.
"Master Fan Ganning, take us to the territory of the Cavedi family now."
Fan Ganning nodded in frustration: "Yes, Lord."
Then he couldn't help but said: "Great Lord, if this happens, the Cavidi family will resist to the end."
Rosen smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter."
If the other party doesn't resist, how can he settle the matter?
What is needed is resistance, and it is best to resist to the end!
He gestured to Angelou: "Gather the army and set off!"
An hour and a half later, the frustrated Archmage Fan Ganning led the way, followed closely by the well-formed Crescent Elite Legion. After walking about 20 kilometers inland, they arrived at the territory of the Cavidi family.
Fan Ganning took the initiative to introduce.
"Ahead is White Gull Town. The castle in the town is the Cavedi Family Castle. There is also a guard force composed of 300 elites and 1,000 servants."
Rosen nodded and carefully looked at the terrain of Baiou Town.
There is a river more than 20 meters wide winding through the town. The town is built on the river, and the castle is built on the high mountain on the south side of the river. The large area on the north side of the river is low-lying land, which extends for 300 meters. The terrain rises to a hill.
Looking from the edge of the hilltop, the pointing distance from Baiou Castle is more than 600 meters, and the height is the same.
If the old fighting method was used, it would naturally not be enough to pose a threat to the castle, but that is not necessarily the case now.
"Angelou, stationed at the top of the mountain, ready to fight at any time."
"Yes, Lord."
Rosen said to Fan Ganning again: "Go and report and ask the head of the Cavidi family to come out to see me."
"But remember, I only wait half an hour. If you don't show up after half an hour, I will attack. And by then, there will be no mercy left, and I will completely destroy the Cavidi family!"
Fan Ganning's face turned pale: "Okay, I'll report it right away."
After a pause, he said: "The patriarch of the Cavidi family is a level 5 archmage. The castle also supports three great warriors and has trained a shadow team specializing in assassinations, numbering about 50. I hope the great lord will act with caution."
"Thanks for reminding me, I will."
So the troops divided into two groups.
Fan Ganning returned to Baiou Town, and the Crescent Elite Legion came to station in the highlands.
Rosen stood on the high ground, watched Fan Ganning leave using flying skills, and then took out his communicator to contact Sky 2.
"Carrie~ Carrie, how are you doing there?"
"It's great, but... I'm just a little anxious."
Rosen found that this was indeed a problem, and it was not easy to put a toilet in the cabin.
Because the outer casing is sealed, dirt can only be stored in the cabin. It would be terrible if it spilled out during high maneuvers.
Think about it and make suggestions.
"Hmm~ Use the suspension mode. You can open the hatch and deal with it urgently."
The communicator was silent for a moment, and then a mosquito-like voice came.
"Brother, isn't this bad?"
"It's okay. If it falls from a height of several thousand meters, no matter whether it is large or small, it will be smashed by the air flow."
There is a high probability that it will not hit anyone.
After speaking, he comforted softly: "Soon, we will have a good resting place."
"Okay then, I'll listen to my brother."
Time passed by, and about twenty minutes later, the Crescent Legion's mana fluctuation detector began to alarm, and many arrows appeared on the glass screen, clearly pointing out the target direction.
Judging from the arrow, there should be a group of high-speed moving targets approaching.
Strangely, there was no one around.
It means that a group of invisible assassins have arrived.
Rosen smiled inwardly: "It seems there is no need for the Cavidi family to exist."
As soon as the thought occurred, an extremely bright ball of light rushed into the sky. It was not only bright, but also flashed rapidly.
And not one, but ten of them, illuminating the surroundings of the temporary camp brightly.
As soon as the light came out, many faint black shadows appeared in the open space hundreds of meters away, but they were invisible assassins illuminated by the bright and shaking light.
The Crescent Warriors are already prepared.
Shoot at the shadow.
‘Puff puff puff~’
Amidst the muffled sounds, the black figure was repeatedly hit and fell to the ground, and then his figure was completely revealed.
In a short while, more than forty shadows were all killed.
The glass light curtain of the mana wave detector also returned to calm.
This means that all Shadow Assassins are finished.
The Cavedi family castle opposite fell into silence.
After the silence lasted for a minute, a white-haired mage appeared on the wall outside the castle.
He used the voice of the collective soul and roared loudly.
"Baron~ You have come to the wrong place! I will never surrender! The people of the islands will never surrender to you!"
Rosen used binoculars to look at the city wall on the opposite side, and at the same time contacted Sky 2 in the sky.
"Carrie, beat that talkative old man to death."
"Okay brother."
About 10 seconds later, more than twenty bright lines fell from the sky, extending all the way to the white-haired old man on the city wall, and then ran over him.
Three of the machine gun shells hit the white-haired old man.
The light and shadow on the old man flickered, forming a blue mana shield. It looked like a bubble. The bubble blocked an armor-piercing cannonball.
But it only blocked one, no, to be precise, half of it.
Because the first shell penetrated the shield and hit the old man. After the second shell passed, a cloud of scarlet blood mist suddenly exploded from the white-haired old man's body, and his body was torn into pieces.
After the body dies, there is still a faint light and shadow on the body, but it is the soul of the master.
The master's soul was illuminated by a ray of faint golden light, which gradually faded away, but was taken to the Kingdom of God by God.
A level 5 archmage, after saying a harsh word, was killed by a machine cannon designed to break the true dragon armor.
There was deathly silence in the Cavedi family castle.
Based on the cost of a rune cannonball of 1,000 crowns, Carrie's wave cost about 20,000 crowns.
"In war, we really fight for money."
Rosen sighed, and then used a group soul voice to start shouting at Baiou Town.
"Citizens of White Gull Town, I am the Lord of the Islands appointed by the Duke, and I am the god-given Earl Rosen Philander."
"All of you are my subjects. As long as you submit to me, I will never commit any violence against my subjects."
"I declare that from now on, the Cavedi family will no longer be the lords of White Gull Town, and all contractual relationships with the Cavedi family have ended."
"I declare that all taxes in the town, including land tax, commercial tax, and grain tax, will be reduced to zero in the next three years!"
After saying these words, the townspeople who were originally panicked due to the unexpected change suddenly became much calmer.
They all felt that this was a big shot fight and it had nothing to do with them.
Moreover, all kinds of taxes can be completely exempted for three years, which shows that this is a kind and generous lord, so he is even more calm.
Rosen shouted again.
"Members of the Cavidi family, open the castle and surrender within ten minutes, otherwise we will attack the city by force!"
In order to increase the momentum, Rosen suddenly had an idea and opened the storm field.
Then the situation on the high ground on the other side of the river suddenly changed, as if the end was coming.
After only holding on for five minutes, the castle gate opened, and a group of gorgeously dressed men and women, about twenty in total, came out.
The leader was Master Fan Ganning. He said loudly: "Great Lord~ I really can't persuade the clan leader. Please forgive the disrespect of the clan."
Rosen nodded to express understanding, but his mind did not change.
"The great lord will keep his word and will severely punish those who resist!"
The men and women who surrendered out of the castle looked at each other and were at a loss.
Rosen waved his hand without giving his opponent time to react.
"Let's go and take over the castle."
The Crescent Legion defended Rosen, on alert all the way, and quickly headed towards the Cavedi Family Castle ahead.
When the team walked into the town, thunderous hoofbeats suddenly sounded from behind the castle gate, and three armored knights rushed out side by side.
They are the great warriors of the Cavidi family.
300 meters away, a desperate charge was launched against the Crescent Army formation!
Anyone who can become a great warrior must have an iron heart and will fight to the death even though he knows he will be defeated.
Angelou immediately ordered: "First Hundred, shoot!"
One hundred warriors were divided into two rows, with fifty people in each row. The first row squatted and the second row stood, aiming at the three warriors and shooting fiercely.
"Bang bang bang bang~~"
The sound of explosions erupted with a terrifying frequency, and almost 90% of the rune bullets hit the great warrior.
Low-level missile techniques continued to explode on the surface of his armor, and the powerful impact of the hard rotating warheads also hit the great samurai.
The great warrior's horse disappeared immediately, but the three great warriors did not change their minds and continued to charge against the flow of fire.
One step ~ two steps ~ three steps!
Under the huge impact, every step is difficult, many times more difficult than sailing against the current.
Four seconds later, a great warrior's strength was exhausted. Although the hard plate armor on his body blocked the direct fire of the warhead, the body inside the armor could not withstand the violent shock.
After the power was exhausted, the body was turned into rotten flesh by the extreme mid-level vibration.
The other two great samurai were not much better. The longest one only lasted 8 seconds, covering a distance of about fifty meters.
The Great Samurai is the last resistance of the Cavidi family.
The powerful warrior who used to be so powerful died so senselessly.
Rosen waved his hand: "Keep going!"
Soon, the team arrived at the bottom of the castle. On the castle's suspension bridge, a group of richly dressed noble men and women shivered.
Fan Ganning also had an earthy complexion. Seeing Rosen and the Crescent Legion approaching, he felt a sense of terror that the end was coming and the earth would collapse.
As a result, he, a level 2 archmage, couldn't bear the huge psychological pressure and knelt on the ground with a 'pop'.
"Great Lord, we were wrong~ Please forgive us!"
As soon as he took the lead, the others also knelt down on the ground.
Rosen smiled coldly.
"I gave you a chance, but you gave up your glory!"
There is only one lord in his archipelago.
He will also entrust nobility in the future as a buffer transition, but he will not entrust land.
Because after the development of communicators, physical information barriers have basically disappeared.
Naturally, there is no need for separate governance. Centralization of power can be carried out according to the Earth model, so that resources can be concentrated to do big things!
Originally, he was worried that he would not be able to find an excuse to attack, so he pressed forward step by step.
Now, the other party really had the guts to resist to the end, giving him the perfect reason to settle the matter.
Waved his hand: "Catch them all, put them in a cage, and accept the trial of the great lord!"
When the soldiers surged forward, Fan Ganning still wanted to resist, but Rosen glared at him coldly. His body immediately softened, and he just kept begging.
"Great Lord, I tried my best, I really tried my best to persuade them~ but they didn't listen to me, a person with a foreign surname!"
Rosen's heart moved and he pointed at Fan Ganning: "Let him go first."
The escorting soldiers stopped immediately.
Rosen asked: "Which of these people are your wife and children?"
Fan Ganning immediately rushed over and hugged a beautiful woman in her mid-thirties, and held the arms of two young men, a man and a woman.
"Very good, you four will stay, and everyone else will be imprisoned in the castle dungeon. All White Ou warriors in the castle, put down their equipment and be dismissed!"
Soon, Rosen and the Crescent Army took over the Cavedi family castle.
Inside the castle, except for the four members of the Van Ganning family, everything else belonging to the Cavedi family, including all the servants, was expelled from the castle.
After a while, Sky 2 also stopped in the castle square.
After arranging the trivial matters, Rosen summoned Fan Ganning again: "I will give you a task."
Archmage Fan Ganning kneeled down on the ground like a conditioned reflex: "It's an honor to serve you, High Lord."
"I want you to go to Beluga City to announce my arrival."
"I, you, issue a notice to everyone on this island. From today on, this island will have only one lord! One government! One army!"
"I also want you to let everyone know that starting from today, all lords on the island will be exempt from taxes for three years!"
"Don't worry, I will take care of your wife and children."
Fan Ganning nodded immediately: "Yes, Great Lord, I will do my best to convey your will to everyone in the archipelago!"
"Well, let's do it~"
As for him, he needs to slow down a bit, not only to be prepared for the war, but also to give the situation some time to develop.
So that all the opposition forces can fully emerge and catch them all in one fell swoop, so as not to leave any trouble in the future.
