Vol 3 Chapter 12

Territory Act 12 (6)

Indeed, the master craftsman Baru was right that Toniger was not rich in crystal mines.

Forging the white lion armor, the sacred wind of the wind needs to be imprinted on the armor's main joints and breastplate armor during the completion stage to reduce the weight of the entire armor and improve dexterity. When completing this step, the artisans of Eruin usually use amethyst or citrine instead. Both of these crystals are very pure magic crystals-and they are mainly used by witches and Hoshimi crystal balls. One of the materials-in Avon, amethyst is also called moon quartz, a type of calcite. The Golan-Elson, Enlec and Viero, Jean Denell are rich in this crystal, they grow densely in the cave formed by water erosion between the hills and mountains in the mountains-but Tonigel did not Does not include such natural conditions.

Even to Brando, Tonigel is a strange territory.

The suspension bridge creaked down, and the chain link between the suspension bridge and the city gate rubbed against the square bricks to make a rattling noise. A line of light shot in from behind the suspension bridge and was printed on the brick wall on the side of the black hole. Brando sat motionless on the horse's back, and his light brown eyes reflected the dazzling light behind the darkness-he pursed his lips and watched quietly as the suspension bridge slowly drooped, the bridge deck The gap between the gate and the gate is getting bigger and bigger. More and more light was pouring in from behind the gap, which made his eyes bright.

Behind is the main street of Fir City. In addition to the short speeches to the surviving mercenaries and the citizens of the city in the early morning after the bitter battle that night, this is the first time he has observed the city from the perspective of the lord-belongs to His own city, at least for the time being, can say so. Barr fir is located in the south of Tonigel. It is a land directly under the jurisdiction of Grudin. In fact, there are only four major population gathering areas-fir town, mining town Schafflund, Gris ferry, and Gris to the east. Hong Kong, the population is about 80,000, of which about 30,000 people live in the area around the fir tree fort. Of course, many other settlements such as Green Village are not included in the statistics, but Brando guesses that the total population here will not exceed 100,000.

However, this is the most densely populated area in the Tonigel region, and about 300,000 people live in the entire Tonigel region.

Tonigel's total area is about 170 knights, and the area under the jurisdiction of Grudin is certainly not the only noble territory here. Among his family members occupied most of the territory. Brando knew that Grudin had two of his biggest henchmen, Lord Mintai and Lord Palas. Lord Palas himself was a knight in captivity. He had silver power and had the only power in the area. A regular army. Brando knew that this guy had a nickname 'Knight of Kuanhe' Sharuf, and said that Kuanhe was because he was actually a harsh and old-fashioned man compared to the usual atrocious nobility here. Knight, such a person can get along well with Gruddin and be entrusted with the heavy task, Brando knows that the only reason is because the other party has always been a stubborn loyalty to Gruddin.

So, the first thing he might face next is the army of these two Lords. These people are the pathfinder for Count Deneer. Only by giving them a lesson can he let the man hide behind the scenes. The older count became more cautious.

So their first goal was to make these Grudin families feel fear for themselves in the next battle.

The suspension bridge door creaked down, and after a white light, Brando's vision first reflected the blue sky. He looked up at the day-from fir firth all the way to the northernmost part of the Patton Wilderness, the flat Tonigel Plain between Cape Gap and Grahar shared such bright weather. This is the best time to get the Dener area into the winter. The plains are shimmering with golden sheen. However, after the autumn harvest, the temperature will soon drop.

Therefore, the nobles of the north were preparing for the war in full swing, striving to launch an offensive before entering winter. If postponed, the war will continue beyond the spring of the following year, and neither Queen Anna nor Gluck would like to see such a result. Especially in the Yanilasu region, the 'Lion Dragon' fleet of the royal family of Eruin poses a huge threat behind Corkova and may change the situation at any time.

Now that the Black Front Corps of Sifah has entered the front line of the Lodar River, what is left is that the two sides are persuading Ambassador's Hong Kong merchants. If the queen's top lobbyists succeed among the profit-seeking merchants, then thousands of Shifah heavy infantry will cross the Lodar straight to the Vlada border-as has happened in history.

In the same way, in Tonigel in the south, the situation became tense because of his appearance. The breath of war seemed to be drifting in the wind to represent the sweetness of the harvest, but with a hint of blood.

Time moves in an orderly manner against a heavy grey background.

"On the 17th, the day after the war, in accordance with the communication standards of this era, the stationery with the news of the mercenaries should have reached the hands of Lord Mintai of North Minsborough. And the first A group of knights are leaving the rock-gray castle, and they are gathering forces, "Brando thought silently, that what he could control now was only around the firtree castle, and the knights in the manor had already fled with news. "After the initial preparations, Lord Mintai may be able to pull up an army of two or three thousand people, the same aristocratic personal soldier, although the black iron rate is less than 20%-but for less than a thousand mercenaries It ’s also a tough battle. ”

"Lord Minty is presumed that the mercenaries will stay in Firthenburg, or escape into the forest," but Brando's ideal battle location was in the hills north of the Grace ferry. When will the army leave? It depends on the news of the scout. Before that, he had sent a small team of Rubis mercenaries to the latter's territory-at this moment Baron Fir, no one except Druid was more suitable as a scout than these experienced mercenaries.

Brando thought about all this silently, because the battle seemed so important to everyone.

This doesn't just mean that Lord Mintai has been imminently sending troops, it's just a small test-Brando's real headache is that behind the scenes Count Denel may be pressing. He thought he would have about a month to arrange all this, repair the defense, and organize the territory-and more importantly before that was to build the mercenaries' confidence in him. Although the mercenaries in the city were on a boat with him temporarily, in the long run they could not always be so close to him. Unless they are confident that they can provide them with the necessary shelter.

None of the three heads of Yuta, Clenthia, and Fern were idlers, and Brando knew that he couldn't keep these people alone with a beautiful hope. And this battle will build such a confidence.

In fact, Antitina privately believes that this battle is not just to stabilize the original group. It was also announcing Brando's legitimacy to the subjects led by Baron Fir, because if the battle achieved the desired goal, Count Denell would slow down. In this way, people's hearts will naturally fall to their side.

People need more than a benevolent lord, but also a lord who can protect them.

At this point the suspension bridge had been lowered halfway, and then Brando saw the tiled red roofs in the far fir town. Tonigel leaned on the west bank of the Dead Sea and the wind from the sea brought abundant rain. Therefore, ordinary houses use a highly inclined roof, except for the pointed arch windows in the attic, and a line is hanging on the eaves. Diversion channel. New green vines hang from the attic windows, matching the vermilion tiles.

Light also poured in to brighten the city gate hole. In addition to the faces, the light outlined the half of Brando's body on the horse's back from the dark environment, and then painted behind him two beautiful young girls with beautiful bodies. The curve. Akane stood with a spear and stood upright on the horse's back-although the amber eyes deliberately maintained a kind of calmness like a guard, she couldn't hide a little girl's expectation and excitement deep in her heart. The girl with the most *** personality has grown up in the mountains and forests of the southern border with the Gray Wolf Mercenary Regiment since she was a child. Of course, she will not get used to the dullness inside the castle.

As for Miss Elf, most of her emotions remained indifferent.

Brando paid a little attention to his two followers, then set his gaze forward and settled down. The suspension bridge was being put down a little bit in front of him, and the scenery on the other side became more and more visible to him-the street was actually still being cleaned, but there were already pedestrians. Most shops and workshops have not been opened, but the young man's keen senses have long noticed that the doubtful and vigilant eyes in those windows have fallen on him-the residents of the city have already noticed the Quietly, they are looking at the new lord who is not so legal.

Although Brando has ordered Antitina to reformulate tax policies, not only has most of the tax been avoided, but the past account has been cut. Unfortunately, although this approach is attractive, most people are more suspicious of how effective this thing is. Besides, whether he can stand still is a question.

There was a loud noise, the dust was flying, and the suspension bridge was finally lowered completely. Brando smiled in his heart and didn't pay much attention to the attitude of these people. Secondly, he saw Fern, Yuta, and Klenhia waiting outside the castle--and Antinina stood upright Beside them.

"Lord Lord."

Seeing him appearing, silver-haired middle-aged man Clenhia buried her head first. As a person who had fought side by side with Brando, he knew better what the young lord could do. Although he was equally worried at the moment whether Brando would be able to hold the Denel family in front of him or whether he would throw them out as scapegoats, the more worried he was, the more he showed respect.

Yuta gently poked her lips, but Brando's style today made her eyes light up, thinking that this young man like God had such a friendly side. Only Fern held his head blank and expressionless.

"Do you know what I want from you?" Brando asked.

All three shook their heads.

"Lord Lord," Kerenhia reverently replied: "As long as you are commanded, we must go to the fire and do whatever we want."
