"No, no, Gruto is not a traitor!" Joel was a little confused here, but he immediately said to the captain.

"Isn't it a rebel? Anyway, I know that the first and second legions are rebellious. Now we are about to fight. If our mercenary regiment didn't have enough numbers, we would have gone to the front to make money." The team leader said. , "Besides, what's the use of you telling me these things, this is what Her Majesty said, they are rebels, if you don't believe me, go ask yourself in the city."

"No, the men in our family won't rebel!" Gruto's wife on the ground said while crying.

"Hmph, sophistry is useless. In fact, the Second Army is against us." The captain here said, "I can't make it up. This is the truth! In short, we must arrest people. If you stop them again, I will kill them." Go and report to Chengwei, your village is protecting rebels, and the whole village is rebelling!"

Everyone panicked now, and quickly looked at the old village chief, and asked in a hurry: "Village chief, is what they said true? That kid Gruto really rebelled?"

"Is that what it says in the official document?"

"Village chief, that boy Gruto I grew up with, he doesn't look like a traitor."

"Okay, everyone be quiet first!" The old village head here raised his voice, and then looked at the small captain, "Where... will they be caught?"

"We just hand it over to the City Guard Office, and then where to send it, I don't know." The team leader said, "Do you still want people? I advise you not to waste time and rebel against the Yi tribe. The law of the country is like this. Who will let them The family man rebelled."

"This is all a misunderstanding, Gruto will not rebel." The old village chief also said.

"Well, I'll show you the way." The team leader here thought for a while and said, "Her Majesty said, give these rebels a month. If they come back within a month, they don't rebel. Now, the sentence should be changed to 20 years of hard labor. At most, he will go to the south to dig mines for 20 years, and he may come back alive. The family members can be pardoned. If they feel that he has been wronged, they should send someone to deliver a letter and let him immediately Come back, people can still be saved."

The reason why the squad leader told them was that it would not affect their income. After all, Linton gave 5 silver coins per head, even if the people were delivered, and whether these people were killed or released later, it didn't affect how much money was given.

"This..." The old village head was also in a state of confusion for a moment, and he didn't know what to do.

"That's it, the road is reserved for you, I have to go to other villages here, don't block the road." The captain said and waved, "Let's go, hurry up."

As they spoke, a few mercenaries dragged the three of them out, and no one dared to move the villagers surrounding them, so they could only watch these people swagger and leave. In the end, the old village head here didn't say anything.

"Village chief, is this true? Gruto really rebelled?"

"What should the village chief do? They all belong to the same village. Do we not care about their family?"

"village head……"

As soon as the mercenaries left, the villagers here began to talk about it. Of course, most of them asked the village chief what to do.

The Gruto family is quite popular in the village, and most villagers still feel that they need to help. Of course, there are also those who have a bad relationship, and now they are starting to make sarcastic remarks.

"I knew that kid Gruto was not a good person with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. Sure enough, he dared to rebel, and almost hurt our whole village."

"It's just his mother, who was still bragging to me a few days ago that their son joined the Second Army Corps or something, how good the benefits are, that's how much it looks like. Look at how he was dragged away just now."

"Village head, our family doesn't care about them. This is a serious crime of rebellion. If it doesn't work, the whole family will have to pay. Do you really want to help their family rebel against thieves?"

Having said that, most people actually shrink back. After all, it is a rebellion, the great crime of the Yi tribe. Although their relationship with the Gruto family is not bad, they can't bet on the lives of their entire family to help their family.

"Okay, shut up!" The old village head here was also a little angry when he heard these words. But he didn't blame much, because he was familiar with Gruto's family and knew that Gruto was definitely not a bad person. If other people didn't know, they couldn't be blamed, could they?

"Joel, are you willing to help with this matter?" The old village chief looked at Joel and said.

"Of course!" Joel nodded, Gruto is really his brother, and of course he is willing to help if he can help. It's just that he is just a farmer. Although he has read some books, his knowledge is limited. How can he know what to do now.

"You...go to the north now." The old village chief thought for a while and said, "It's unreliable to send letters or something. The guy just said that there is going to be a war. I don't know if the letter will be delivered. Just One month later, their family will be gone. You go directly to Gruto and tell him the situation here. I guess he was cheated, he is not that kind of person, you go directly to him bring back."

The old village head really wanted to help. If he hadn't grown old, he would have traveled to the north himself. For now, I can only let Joel go.

"Go to the north..." Joel hesitated a little, but nodded after gritting his teeth. Of course he knew the danger. Didn't this all say that there was going to be a war? Moreover, the north has rebelled, and it is estimated that it is very chaotic. But Gruto is really his brother, and his son Serar calls him his uncle, and he can't do it if he doesn't care.

"Okay, you set off right away, and I'll pay for the travel expenses." The old village chief said, "Make sure he comes back right away!"

"Okay." Joel also nodded, "I'll go home and talk."

"I'll go with you." The old village chief also knew that Joel's family members might also want to persuade him. This matter is indeed dangerous, and of course the family members would be worried.

The same thing is happening in many other villages, because those in the city are basically directly arrested by the city guards, and those in the outer villages are basically outsourced. Now a person is worth 5 silver coins, and a head is money, but Her Majesty said that the living is counted as money, and the dead are not counted.

Of course, there were some troubles, but in general, such a large-scale arrest did not cause much resistance. The fundamental reason is that everyone thinks that there is nothing wrong with rebelling against the Yi tribes. It has its own national law, so what can you say?

Compared to the south, when the news spread to the north, it was not just a matter of a few skirmishes. As soon as the news reached the area occupied by the northern rebels, everyone exploded instantly.
