Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel
Chapter 50: Snake swallows elephant
The two negotiated for three days in a row, but Derek refused to give in. Wilson was so angry that he wanted to leave several times, but Derek still said that he would start a war.
There's really nothing he can do about this kind of hob meat.
And now the barbarians also figured out the origin of Viscount Derek. He was a ruthless man who beheaded tens of thousands of barbarians in one battle.
Barbarians look down on people who talk big words.
But they hated and feared this kind of barbarian butcher with bloody hands.
Wilson believes that the other party will definitely do what he says.
And unfortunately, if there is a real fight, the alliance between the two countries will definitely be destroyed, and I have no confidence in killing this annoying guy in front of me.
Derek's record was so terrifying that no general dared to say he was better than him.
Moreover, the Holy Maitreya Legion has not been idle in the past few days. They have investigated and dealt with several waves of barbarians, and there have been many armed fights.
Seeing that the situation continued and the army's resentment could no longer be controlled, Wilson finally compromised.
"I admit defeat and let my people go. This is the bottom line. Otherwise, I would rather go to war with you."
Although he has regressed, he must not allow his men to be detained, otherwise his reputation will be ruined.
Derek naturally understood this and pushed the other party into a hurry. Anyway, his future was ruined and he might no longer care about the alliance between the two countries.
"Okay, but you have to do one thing for me."
After hearing this, Wilson became even more depressed.
Can you still play like this?
His eyes were opened. The guy in front of him was simply a devil.
However, he could only nod in agreement, even though he knew that this might bring great hidden dangers.
Then, the vigorous population migration began.
The brutal barbarians gathered together the serfs in the Saint Maitreya Province and wanted to transport them back to the country.
Then we took a slight detour, that is, walked in the opposite direction for a few days.
At this time, the Holy Maitreya Legion arrived and confronted the barbarians.
After difficult negotiations, the two parties finally reached agreement on conditions.
All the abducted serfs were resettled on the spot, and the barbarians began to hand over the defense line.
You said it was a coincidence that the place where they were placed happened to be called Augusta Territory.
Our Lord Viscount, who is not afraid of power, returned to the territory and found that there were hundreds of thousands more mouths. He could only provide them with mercy and rescue them, and issued a reclamation order, allowing the serfs to cultivate fields around the designated villages and have freedom.
As for the food shortage, anyway, the gentlemen of the Rock Kingdom have promised to provide food rations for a few years, so what are they afraid of?
The Legion of Saint Maitreya recruited soldiers from the surrounding areas while taking over the defense.
Derek wrote a letter to relocate some of the manpower from the country and started construction in the territory.
Plan towns, build military camps, train a series of skilled workers such as blacksmiths, and recruit freed serfs to become private armies.
Of course, the liberation of the serfs was not as sensational as imagined. Even the serfs themselves were indifferent and had no idea what it meant.
Derek finally understood that what was written in the book might be somewhat embellished.
However, as time goes by, when the serfs find that no one can arbitrarily deprive them of their lives without being punished, that they can own their own private property, and even decide their own destiny, they will gradually support the great lord.
For now, there are still enough rations to boost morale.
While Derek was spinning around, he directly seized a batch of resources while his colleagues in the northern province were still dilly-dallying.
What mines, estates, town officials.
A large number of people were appointed privately, and even the title deeds for unowned properties were directly forged.
Anyway, don’t do it for free.
With just such a move, he quickly became a cancer in the Holy Maitreya Province.
Of course, the rights and interests of merchants, missionaries and nobles in Saint Maitreya Province must also be guaranteed.
This is a basic rule and a characteristic of this era.
But facing a new protector, shouldn’t we pay some protection fees?
Therefore, after more than half a month, the first batch of troops from the northern provinces entered the St. Maitreya Province, and Derek had already completed the horse race.
If you want to say that these nobles don't understand the hidden rules, Derek will definitely not believe it.
They just didn't expect Derek to be so fast.
They temporarily reorganized the army and drove away the barbarians so quickly that no one could react.
According to predictions, Derek should have just finished entangled with the barbarian at this time, or even still entangled.
Everyone came in at this time. On the one hand, they avoided the trouble of getting up early, and on the other hand, they also organized the army.
Wouldn't it be fun to just give Derek some support and then all wield the scythe to reap the spoils?
Unfortunately, when he knew that Derek had defeated the barbarians, it was still a step too late to hurry up and hurry up.
Count Pereira was the first to arrive, and then behaved exactly like Derek, even with more tricks.
The other nobles were not far behind, and were racing to enclose their territories one by one.
After all, Derek couldn't eat such a big cake by himself.
Even the local snakes in St. Maitreya Province should be grateful to Derek, because many people eat it more ugly than Derek, and just grab it without any disguise.
On the contrary, he had been picked off by Derek early on, and he was just glad at this moment.
Of course, this may also be because Derek shaved too hard, and the latecomer was jealous and lost a piece of cake.
In short, it has been chaotic for another half month. St. Maitreya Province has been in turmoil. Some unlucky nobles even found that there was only one out of ten people in their territory, and they suspected that it was a bad thing done by barbarians.
As for Derek, even if they knew he had benefited, no one dared to show their teeth to him.
Because of the rapid expansion of the Holy Maitreya Legion and the private army, few people in the entire Holy Maitreya Province could restrain him.
Unknowingly, the former small knight completed the feat of swallowing an elephant and became a local tiger.
The turbulent Holy Maitreya Province is no longer the most important thing for Derek.
Although the power has expanded greatly in a short period of time, the premise of everything is to withstand the counterattack of the Holy Cross Kingdom.
Otherwise, all this will disappear, and the subsequent backlash will force him to exile to another country.
After learning the news of the invasion of the Locke Kingdom, the bureaucratic system of the Holy Cross Kingdom, which was originally sluggish, has become highly efficient.
The barbarians attacked for a while, and they were sure to drive them away, but the old rival Locke had a firm foothold and it was difficult to drive them away.
Derek had to put aside all his affairs and go to the front line to take charge.
On the first day of entering the Holy Maitreya Province, Derek did not ignore the counterattack of the Holy Cross Kingdom.
So the newly built castle under his feet has been under repair.
A large amount of supplies were concentrated here first, and Derek was ready for a protracted war.
This was not a battle with barbarians, and it required risk.
His goal was only to hold on to the existing results and then digest them.
After a year, it was uncertain who would fight whom.
"Before that, be prepared for bloodshed."
Derek's eyes were firm. He didn't care about the enemies in other directions, but it was impossible for them to pass through here.
