The Dictatorial Lords

Locke gave a series of orders and left.

As soon as we went out, the discussion inside became louder. Excited voices spread far away. Locke understands them. After all, the town has developed to the present, and each of them has contributed a lot. Now they also know that if they want to develop further, they cannot grow by forming a caravan or accepting a few small tribes.

The only way is to accept more people, form an army, and start a war. to develop rapidly. But Locke didn't want this, he was still very peaceful in his bones. Unlike other seniors who came here, they developed and started wars.

It is better to avoid war than problems that can be solved by mild means.

Like this time, Locke knew they thought he was a sign of war. In fact, he simply wanted to expand the size of the town. Train the army to guard their own one-acre three-point land.

In Locke's ideal, his future city is a comprehensive commercial gathering place. To the north, you can do business in the Wegrut Wilderness, to the south, you can do business with the human kingdom, and to the west, you can do business with the orc empire. Of course, these are Locke's ideal ideas. Where there are people, there are disputes. Therefore, you must have strong strength to guarantee your own interests.

In the meeting room, Lawrence asked suddenly: "You said, is the city owner preparing for war? This is expanding the city and recruiting troops?" Hearing what he said, Hal also thought it was possible, and said : "I think it's very possible. If we want to grow stronger, we must plunder other people's sites and materials. Build more caravans. Do you think that the city lord allows the residents of the city to form a mercenary group? Isn't this a disguised expansion of combat power? ?With the mercenary group, we can have more caravans. Then we have more trade routes. There must be more commodities that can be sold. Where do these commodities come from? The only way to plunder the specialties of other races is to let them integrate into the Only our city can meet the consumption of our caravan." Hal expressed his opinion. He looked at Eli again.

"Knight Avery, you are the personal guard of the city lord, and you were brought by the lord to Vigrid. What do you think the lord means by this step?"

Who knew that Avery said with a dead face: "I don't care what your lord thinks, I just know that we will fight wherever your lord tells our knights to fight!"

Hal and Lawrence rolled their eyes.

Seeing that he couldn't ask any questions from Avery, Hal looked at Zhang Zhao and said, "Master Zhang, although you have only joined us for a short time, we all know how much the Lord City Master values ​​you, otherwise we wouldn't have given everything to you. The internal affairs are left to you, what do you think your lord's plan is this time?"

Hal asked respectfully, there was no way not to be respectful, he admired Zhang Zhao a lot these days. To say that it is a little exaggerated, it can be said to be omnipotent.

Zhang Zhao's respect for them was nothing to rely on, who told him to do this kind of thing for two lifetimes, even if he wasn't familiar with it. But he also replied: "I personally don't think that adults want to start a war. First, although we are powerful now, with the Knights of Eli Knights and elite fighters. But we don't have a suitable reason to start a war. If we take the risk If we start a war, no matter what others think of us, even those races that join us may have complaints. Think again, these orders issued by the adults are all about building cities and choosing troops to guard the cities. Even newly recruited and trained Those fighters may be dispatched to protect the caravan. They have no intention of expanding abroad."

When everyone heard Zhang Zhao's words, you looked at me, I looked at you, and were completely stunned. That's right, your lord has not issued any war orders. Feelings are what a group of us think about here. Everyone couldn't help but blush.

Zhang Zhao looked at their faces and smiled strangely. Then he said, "But."

Lawrence is the most impatient. He looked at Zhang Zhao but didn't speak for a long time, and said anxiously: "Oh, Mr. Zhang Zhao, you said it, but what, what did you see? Say it, so that we can be mentally prepared. get ready."

Hehe smiled, and Zhang Zhao continued: "My lord didn't issue a war order, but it doesn't mean that others won't mess with us!"

Now everyone can't understand, how could others come to attack us? We don't seem to be that weak, we can fight if we want to.

Looking at the group of people still looking silly and sweet, Zhang Zhao said directly: "Think about that slave Yuna. The one who was executed by Lawrence. What did she say when she first arrived in the territory?"

Avery said: "Yes, at that time she threatened the city lord that the Dumeisha family had agreed to send troops to protect them, but we detained them back. When I led the knights to attack them, the Yuna woman also said Same words."

Only then did everyone remember.

"Could it be that Du Meisha came back to attack us? Impossible. The Yuna tribe is just a small tribe under Du Meisha. They can't be so irrational?" Lawrence said.

Zhang Zhao continued to analyze, "Usually, Du Meisha would not attack us irrationally, but when the wolfhunters attacked them, the Yuna tribe increased their contribution to Du Meisha every year, and Du Meisha felt it again. Protect them, think about it, just as the group of Dumesa agreed to send troops to protect the Yuna people, Eli Knight detained both of them back. If Dumesa doesn’t come to us like this, who will dare to be theirs in the future? Subordinate tribes, accept their protection?"

A group of idiots came to their senses, and the problem was that the Yuna tribe, which Du Meisha had protected for the second time, was detained by the Eli Knight. If the Dumeisha clan doesn't respond, it will be difficult to get along in the Wigerut Wilderness in the future. Maybe the subordinate tribes that have joined now have complaints.

After figuring out the key point, everyone was overjoyed, there was no excuse and they were rushing to give excuses, as long as the Du Meisha clan sent troops, I would have a legitimate reason to send troops.

"Why? Did you think about it? Think about it, Du Meisha sent troops to us, we have a reason to send troops, and a big battle started. If we send scouts to attack those races Du Meisha passed by, let Du Meisha If the Sha family takes a few scapegoats, melee will break out immediately. It is better to kill some of Du Meisha's deadly enemies, triggering a war of attrition between the two races. At that time, we will take advantage of the trend and use our powerful army to defeat them forcefully, or Incorporate, or forcibly relocate. Everything is much simpler."

Zhang Zhaopei talked, but did not see Hal Lawrence and the newcomer Colwater looking at him with strange eyes.

Everyone couldn't help but think in their hearts: "Fuck, this Zhaota is so fucking sinister, sinister, treacherous, and shameless. Don't Bilian, these words can be used on him, and it's fine to lose the pot, but the ultimate goal is to cause confusion and want to be included. If you don’t go to be a general in the human empire, it’s a waste of talent! If you go to be a general, the orc empire will be extinct long ago!”

It is not in vain for the author to ask for a recommendation ticket. Thank you everyone. ()
