Chapter 44 The road ahead is long

"You want to join the army?"

In the study on the top floor of the lord's castle, Bruno was sitting behind the desk, curiously looking at the guy in front of him who had just been brought in by the valet Liszt.

Krel looked to be in his early twenties, with dark brown hair spread unkemptly on his head, looking like a messy bird's nest from a distance.

His face was a little pale, probably due to long-term malnutrition.

His eyebrows are quite handsome and his nose is high, but there is a scar about two centimeters long on his forehead, which looks a bit old.

Bruno was deeply impressed by him, not only for his excellent work performance, but also because of his deep eyes, which seemed to be able to pierce the injustice and darkness in the world and see the essence hidden behind the appearance.

When Bruno announced the release of forty-five serfs as civilians, he also gave everyone the opportunity to come to the lord's castle to meet him.

Krell was the first person to muster up the courage to come find him after being released as a civilian.

And Krell, the captain of the third production team, was also the first to sign up when the production team was first established.

After the Hanging Garden was built, he received the highest work points and became one of the first batch of serfs to be released as civilians.

"Yes, I want to join the army." Krell affirmed again.

"A total of 300 people were recruited into the first batch of the standing army. But now, the 300 places have been filled, so... you need to give me a reason, a reason that can convince me to recruit you into the standing army." Bruno said seriously said.

Bruno does think highly of Krell, but that doesn't mean he will make an exception for Krell.

After all, one thing Bruno has been emphasizing in the training of standing armies is discipline.

If Krel cannot give a very convincing reason, Bruno will never break his own requirements and recruit Krel.

"What's the reason..." Claire lowered his head and pondered for a moment.

He also knew very well in his heart that this was Bruno's assessment of him. If his answer could satisfy his lord, then his wish to join the army would be possible.

"I want to become a soldier and protect the Idar Territory! Protect you!" Krell said.

"Why? Not only do I have three hundred standing troops, but I also have a personal guard composed of knights, including you." Bruno teased.

"Because I want to protect this possibility!" Krel looked into Bruno's eyes and said firmly: "In Idar Territory, and only in Idar Territory, serfs can also become civilians through their own efforts. !”

"...and this possibility was only given to us by you! You gave the serfs hope! Let my father and I stand up again! Let us live for ourselves!"

Bruno's eyes narrowed slightly, and his hands unconsciously clenched the armrests on the side of the seat.

"You...really think so?" Bruno finally became serious.

"Yes!" Krel said without hesitation: "The Idar Territory is as clean as an undeveloped virgin land. You have given us the opportunity that the most humble and despicable serfs originally hoped for! I, Krel, am willing to protect the Idar Territory with my own life! Protect this hope!"

"You go down first. I need to think about your application to join the army..." Bruno finally said to Krel after being silent for a long time.

"As you command, Your Majesty the Earl." Krell saluted respectfully, and then followed Liszt carefully out.

At this time, Bruno's heart felt like a sea.

Before that, he had always regarded the group of people around him as uncivilized indigenous residents of a different world, and wanted to move forward step by step following the historical footsteps of his previous life.

However, Krell's words gave Bruno more to think about.

Because Bruno finally realized that even the humblest serfs... they also have their own thoughts and perceptions.

Perhaps, due to their own class limitations, they can only see what is in front of them.

But there are always people, there are always people like Krell, who think more and further.

Releasing serfs into civilians may seem like a trivial move, but behind it lies the energy that could destroy the world...

Because... there are too many serfs in the world!

Bruno felt a little excited and a little nervous at the same time.

Of course he is happy that the people of his territory can think for themselves, have their own understanding, and can truly regard the Idar Territory as their sustenance and regard themselves as a member of the Idar Territory.

However, Bruno himself is a noble!

Releasing the serfs as civilians will certainly stimulate the huge production potential of the Idar territory, but... the serfs and the nobles are two opposing classes after all!

This makes Bruno must treat this issue with extreme caution, and there is absolutely no room for sloppiness!

Bruno vaguely feels as if he has become an invisible promoter of the history of this world. Every action he takes will plant seeds for this world, thereby affecting the original development trajectory of this world...

This is a very wonderful feeling. UU reading www.uukanshu.net will give people a sense of pride and accomplishment that comes from deep within...

Bruno thought for a long time in the study and sketched on the parchment countless times before shouting out the door: "Liszt!"

"Master, did you call me?" Liszt came in in response.

"Let Krel report to the standing army..." Bruno finally said.

"Besides, let Sam Layton drill him hard for me. A good youngster should enjoy more training."

"As you wish, sir."

"Also, because you used your brain too much this morning, please ask the kitchen to prepare two more dishes." Before Liszt left, Bruno ordered again.

"Yes, sir."

"What did the lord say?"

Krel's father asked hurriedly after returning home.

"I didn't agree, but I didn't refuse either. The master said he would consider it..." Claire poured some water for himself and moistened his throat.

"You are a little irritable. The earl has many things to do every day. It would be a great grace for you to meet him. How can you make such a request to me?" Krel's father sighed and persuaded him earnestly.

"Although I haven't met him a few times, I always feel that the Earl is different from other nobles..."

"You, you have been thinking all day long. With this free time, you might as well do more work... You didn't go to work in the morning, but you were deducted one copper from your wages." Claire's father said with some distress. said.

"Dong dong dong..."

While the father and son were talking, the door rang.

Claire stood up and opened the door, only to see Liszt standing outside the door with a straight face.

"Report to the military camp tomorrow."

He said.
