Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel

Sheriff Thorin raised his arm and went out with his soldiers.

He was a town sheriff, born as an officer under Duke Leopold.

After defeating the Holy Cross in the war, he was awarded the title of knight for his merits.

He had no fiefdom, but he was also a noble.

A reserve noble was also qualified to serve as some low-level officials.

It just so happened that the Northland was short of a large number of sheriffs.

Under the operation of the Duke, Thorin came here to be a sheriff.

He was still doing half of his old job. Compared with other jobs, he was more adept at leading soldiers to arrest people and maintain public order.

He had a poor background, and his family was not even a free farmer. If it weren't for the Duke, how could he be here today?

A noble title, a decent job as a sheriff, and all kinds of benefits.

So after receiving the Duke's secret order, he summoned all his men as promised and waited for the official order.

Then the messenger brought the Duke's order to take over the town, arrest the government official appointed by the kingdom, and wait for the Duke's new order.

Thorin did not hesitate at all. He learned the news of the establishment of the Northern Principality from the messenger.

In fact, the news of the Northern Principality has been flying everywhere recently, and the atmosphere in the North is very tense.

The political officer had a heart-to-heart talk with him a few days ago, asking him to stick to his position and know who gave him the title and who paid him.

Thorin felt funny. The title was applied for by His Excellency the Duke, and the position of sheriff was also operated by the Duke. The salary was not paid by the king, but from local taxes.

Moreover... the salary was only a few dollars, and the bulk of it was from His Excellency the Duke's customs.

It would have been better if he hadn't persuaded him. Once he persuaded him, his will became more determined.

The soldiers of the security team also responded quickly to the order of the chief.

Before Thorin took office, he received training from the Duke and knew how to be a good sheriff and how to win over his subordinates.

Half of the money he usually took from the customs was used to feed his soldiers.

And several captains were all retired veterans from the Northern Army.

At his command, the soldiers rushed into the government office and arrested all the administrative officials.

It happened that the wind in the North was not right these days. The sheriff was gathering his men to discuss how to deal with it, and was caught by Thorin.

After being caught, he didn't realize the situation and shouted loudly: "Thorin, what do you want to do? Do you want to rebel?"

"Rebel against what? I am following the Duke's orders. You have the guts to sue me." Thorin was not afraid at all.

The political officer was furious. He had long felt that Thorin had a problem with his thinking.

And there was indeed a problem.

"What Duke's order? This is the kingdom's town. We work for the king."

"Haha, Mr. Political Officer, you don't know that the Duke has ascended the throne and established a country in Swan Castle. Now this is the territory of the principality. I am working for the principality."

The sheriff finally understood what happened. He wanted to persuade him to surrender, but was blocked by the impatient Thorin.

Not only Thorin was taking action, but sheriffs and garrisons in various places were also taking action.

Even the Iron Wall Legion had a riot. The legion leader, Earl Jeffreys, was away, and some noble officers in the North suddenly attacked and controlled the legion.

Closed inside and outside, no one was allowed to go out.

Officers from Leopold quickly moved in, a large number of officers were detained, and the army was disbanded and reorganized.

A large number of surprise attacks occurred in cities and armies.

Some reacted and fled or counterattacked in time, and the entire North was in chaos.

The news of the establishment of the Northern Principality also spread.

It was also at this time that Simon led the army trained by Augusta to advance rapidly.

"General Simon."

Thorin saluted excitedly. It was the first time he saw his old boss after leaving the army.

Simon had an impression of his officers. Thorin had fought against the Holy Cross and made meritorious service, and finally got a title.

He was originally going to increase the training efforts, but he didn't expect that Thorin was arranged to be a sheriff because of this title.

Now they meet again, Simon is very happy.

Judging from the other party's expression and clothes, he is living a good life.

"Good boy, you did a good job.

How are the soldiers you trained?"

"They are all good guys, better than I was at the beginning, you can try." Thorin is confident.

It was too easy for them, the sheriffs, to train a group of soldiers.

Thorin trained two teams, the number was not large, but he dared to guarantee that they were all good boys.

Simon didn't waste time talking to him and directly ordered the two teams of soldiers to be requisitioned.

He still had a lot of things to do, so he would give Thorin a credit.

Simon divided them into several teams along the way, and it was most convenient for his own people, and even new recruits could be accepted.

The nobles who supported him were slightly worse, and many people did not receive advance notice. It took some time to temporarily control the local king's faction.

Even some of them were killed, caught and driven away, and Simon had to take the lead for them.

It was the most troublesome to have no one of their own. No matter how much Derek prepared, he could not cover most of the area.

Even this situation was the most common.

What Simon had to do was also very simple, to deploy a large army to scare them, and those who were willing to be loyal would change places, and those who were unwilling would be sent away.

Most officials serving in the North were very sensible. They had seen the arrogance of Duke Leopold and left obediently.

It was not until he met the first one who resisted that Simon stopped temporarily.

“What a wishful thinking, Simon, you are a lowly commoner, and His Majesty the King has granted you fiefdom and noble status, is this how you pledge your loyalty to the King?

And that guy Leopold, does he really think he is the King of the North? Just wait to die. "

Simon's face was livid. This was the first time someone had attacked his origins in person.

Yes, I was born a commoner, but these old stubborns have always discriminated against me, and now they dare to insult me ​​like this, and even dare to curse the Duke.

"Siege the city, I will catch him today and make him regret it."

A small city is not difficult at all for the elite Northland soldiers.

As soon as it got dark, the officials who had just shouted were suppressed at Simon's feet.

He was planning to run away in the chaos, but was finally caught by his own people.

After all, he ran away, what about Duke Leopold's anger?

No one wants to take the blame for him.

When he arrived in front of Simon, he was even calm.

He is a kingdom official and will not be in danger under normal circumstances.

Simon's behavior will soon be counterattacked, and King Arthur will never let it go.

"Simon, you are helping the evildoers and wait for His Majesty the King to liquidate you."

How could such a huge Rock Kingdom be afraid of a Duke of Northland?

Even though King Arthur is not in a good situation right now, he is orthodox, and many people recognize him as such.

Moreover, the resistance of the little prince Radek was defined as a rebellion. It made a big fuss but did not shake King Arthur's throne.

Simon knew that this kind of person was lucky, so he directly ordered: "Hang him!"

You can still survive if you are caught, but you are so mean-mouthed.
