Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel
Chapter 47 News
When Derek saw the barbarians leave the country, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, the nobles who lost their land returned one after another, bringing the temporary army to recover the lost land.
Of course, there must be a group of people who will be unlucky.
Demotion, seizure of land, the specific situation depends on the situation.
And in the future, no one will dare to underestimate the barbarians, and the border security will definitely be more complete.
For the time being, this place is taken over by several thousand-man teams of the Second Legion to prevent the invasion of barbarians.
And what awaits Derek will be a bright future.
The attitude of the other thousand-man captains who took over was very good.
Everyone knew that everyone's identity would be different in the future.
When Derek returned to Tiebi City with the military order, he was greatly welcomed.
Two thousand-man teams were even allowed to enter the city directly and accept the banquet.
In a sense, he saved the city.
The infinite scenery made Derek a little flattered, but the memory of his previous life kept reminding him that the more glorious the time, the more humble he should be.
Being in the spotlight, it is inevitable to be envied.
Now, all jealous eyes are covered by the dazzling light, but when the scenery fades, it may bring trouble.
Being humble and low-key can avoid a lot of trouble.
Of course, young people should fight when they should.
Perhaps, this is to do things in a high-profile manner and be low-key in life?
Derek has new insights every moment, and combined with what he saw and heard in his previous life, he modifies his behavior little by little.
This made him well received by many people.
At this moment, it reached its peak when the governor met him.
After the war, the aura of the first person in the northern province returned to the governor again.
He is the ruler of millions of people in the north, and in most cases he can control the fate of any individual.
Even the powerful earl has to be half a head lower than him.
In legal terms, he is the governor of the kingdom and the highest authority in the local area.
Dispatching troops, governing civil affairs, collecting taxes, and even exercising the right to recruit nobles on behalf of the king.
He is in a high position and has great power, while the governor himself is just a court noble.
This is also the king's check and balance on the governor. He holds great power while in office, but it is difficult to continue this glory after abdication.
However, Derek does not need to consider these. The governor in front of him can decide his fate now.
So he is very low-key. When the governor comes out to greet him, he shows a look of trepidation.
"Knight Derek, I have sent the document of your meritorious service to the capital by express horse, and your reward will come soon.
Now... let me welcome the meritorious officials of the North."
"I dare not, I dare not, this battle is not the credit of me alone, but also the colleagues of the First and Second Legions, the Iron Lion Legion and the City Guards, and the support of the nobles of the North.
This is the credit of everyone, how dare I take it all?"
Derek's words were really unexpected.
Everyone saw his majesty under the Iron Wall City that day, and thought he was a rebellious person.
Even if he is a little arrogant, most people can accept it temporarily, after all, he is indeed a meritorious official, but if it goes on for a long time, there will probably be complaints.
How could it be like this now, all the nobles present smiled.
No matter what the facts are, everyone has some merit for what Derek said, and the punishment of the nobles who lost their land can be further reduced, maybe just a fine.
And did Derek lose anything?
Nothing, the merits he deserves will not be less, and in order to make his own merits appear greater, everyone will desperately advocate for him.
The king's reward will not be less, otherwise the people in the North will be unstable.
This is called a win-win situation.
Governor Jeffrey looked at him deeply, and the strength in his hand increased.
"Well said, I have heard about the style of the Northland Knights for a long time, and I finally saw it today."
Governor Jeffrey enthusiastically pulled Derek into the banquet, personally took him to the first position at the bottom, and personally removed his armor for him.
This was a political show, and it was something that Derek was proud of, so of course he cooperated throughout the whole process.
"Everyone, thanks to the efforts of the northern lords and the help of Knight Derek, we repelled the barbarians and drank."
The Governor-General was indeed a politician, and he praised a bad thing as a good thing.
Those who didn't know would have thought that the barbarians were invaded by the Locke Kingdom.
But everyone was willing to cooperate, because it was too embarrassing in the early stage of the war, so it was natural to cover it up.
Derek was in it and had a better understanding of politics.
Sometimes, black is not necessarily black, he can also be white, let alone gray?
Military exploits! Reputation! Merits!
These are all the reliance on which one climbs up, but they are definitely not the only ones.
If you want to truly grasp power, these are not enough.
And all of these require one to slowly learn and adapt to the rules of this world.
The banquet ended in a happy atmosphere, and the northern province was peaceful and prosperous.
The traces of the war not long ago seemed to have been completely wiped out.
Everyone was trying to downplay the existence of the war.
It was just some unlucky people who died, and a bunch of people who were plundered.
The nobles were still nobles, and the northern province was still the northern province.
Derek finally met his second brother, who had been quickly appointed as a centurion, which was considered to be crossing the threshold of a low-level officer.
The Iron Lion Legion was a standing legion in the northern province, and would expand once a war broke out.
It has expanded from 3,000 to 5,000 people before, and there is expected to be another wave of expansion.
And Sergei still has the opportunity to go further, which requires Baron Ferreira to help.
But at the moment, he is more concerned about his younger brother.
"Derek, you are really famous this time, and everyone is asking me about your situation."
Sergei was very excited. His younger brother was outstanding, and he also benefited from it.
He asked Derek about the whole process of the war in detail, and praised him again.
From the retrospective review, the barbarians did not lose unfairly.
Derek calculated step by step and completely led the barbarians into a trap.
And the combat effectiveness of his soldiers was unexpected, which was the winner of the war.
So it was destined from the beginning that the barbarians would suffer a big loss, the only difference was how big.
"I think this war is not over yet. The barbarians' behavior is very strange. Maybe there are still troubles waiting for us. Second brother, don't be careless." Derek expressed his concerns.
Sergei remembered it seriously this time. Derek is no longer the child he used to be.
He believed in Derek's judgment, but he didn't know what the barbarians were planning.
The two brothers discussed for a long time, but they had no specific clues.
But soon, a shocking news came.
Then came two consecutive orders from the capital.
