Unfortunately, they were defeated by Aslan, and for some reason, they almost killed Aslan.
Regardless of the rules of the nobility, or the face of the high lord, the Marquis of Medea, it is impossible to justify.
They must accept Aslan's exploitation, or else they will quarrel in front of the Marquis Medea, and they can't escape the hanging just by murdering the disciple of the High Lord.
This is also the rule among the nobles.
The problem of face and lining.
When they murdered Aslan, they lost their lining, and in the end the war was also lost to Aslan, and even face was lost.
After Aslan signed the compensation treaty, the whole person was still in excitement, but this time the compensation was only part of it. His real purpose was to capture the Merlot who had been robbed and sold by these lords over the years.
"The war reparations have been settled! We should talk about your contributions to the Merlot area over the years."
Aslan put the compensation treaty aside, and suddenly asked.
Not to mention the remaining nine lords, even the Merlot like Goode wanted to say something.
Shameless enough!
But they will add one sentence, shameless enough! But I like it.
Baron Jimmy couldn't help but hesitated, but he bit the bullet and asked.
"I don't know what the Nine Young Master plans?"
Aslan waved his hand, and immediately a former slave soldier ran out.
"Osborne! My parents were caught from the Merlot area to Jimmytown twenty years ago, and I am the one I am now."
"Gila! Seven years ago, Viscount Hillman was taken from the Merlot area and worked as a slave."
A dozen people began to shout loudly.
The surrounding Merlot soldiers clenched their fists one by one. After joining the Merlot army, they usually study ideological and political lessons to protect the territory, protect the personal and property safety of the leaders, and protect everything that the lord guards.
Now I heard that the former compatriots were arrested as slaves, and for decades, there are still people who have been slaves for three generations, which makes them think of soldiers who self-proclaimed the sword of the protection of the Merlot area.
This is the national culture and the rise of national thinking that Aslan has always emphasized.
"You have arrested so many of us, shouldn't you be back?" Aslan's voice was colder than ever.
"You arrest my people, it's like cutting my flesh and blood. If you don't give me an explanation today, then I will personally lead an army into the territories of the lords and rescue our people."
The Merlot militiamen standing on the outermost periphery, after hearing these words, looked at each other, and the people who reacted quickly had already understood the meaning of Aslan's words, and their eyes were flushed.
Johnson said at the right time: "The lord who truly belongs to our Merlot area is here, and he will lead us to glory. Lord Lord has promised that from now on, we will be the lord’s people and enjoy what the residents of Merlot should have. For rights and obligations, Lord Lord also promised that our children will go to Merlot to study and practice at the Swordsman Academy, and they will also become knights in the future."
Johnson's words made these people who had already envied the people of Merlot enthusiastic.
"You should understand what Lord Lord said just now. We are in Lord Lord's heart just like the flesh and blood of Lord Lord. Have you ever seen anyone abandon the flesh and blood of your own body?"
"Lord Lord! Long live!"
"Lord Lord! Mighty!"
"Lord Lord! Wan Sheng!"
All kinds of cheers continued to sound, causing the entire barracks to plunge into a sea of cheers. Unknowingly, the Merlot army was also infected by the cheers, and they shouted afterwards, which scared the lords surrounded by it. Not light.
Aslan raised his hand and motioned for silence.
The Merlot army ordered the prohibition, and there was a moment of silence. When the surrounding militiamen heard the Merlot army suddenly quiet, they instinctively stopped the noise.
"What are you going to do?" Aslan's voice echoed in every lord's ear like a devil.
Baron Jimmy was the most helpless, shouting loudly: "Master Nine, I am willing to dedicate all the Merlots who have been arrested."
Jimmy Town is just like Aslan said, one-third of the population is slaves, except for a small number of free citizens who were demoted to slaves, and more than ninety-nine percent of them were Merlots. This gave up so much of the population. Will affect this year's autumn planting.
The other lords are not as extreme as Baron Jimmy, but they are not much different.
Money can be earned again, and it can be saved slowly, it is only a matter of time.
For the lord, these slaves are free labor. As long as they consume a little grain, they can meet all kinds of production needs. They are simply tools for making money.
"Very well, I will send the clerk back to Jimmy Town to register with you, and send it back together with the compensation at that time. That's all." Aslan is very satisfied with Baron Jimmy's knowledge and cooperation.
Baron Jimmy breathed a sigh of relief and quietly stepped aside.
The other lords also gritted their teeth and handed over all the slaves under the treatment, and Aslan agreed to let them go.
Back this time, Aslan initially estimated that he would have a population of at least 50,000 to 60,000, and possibly even more. How to resettle them in the future is also a big problem.
Meiyang Village will also build a fortress. On the one hand, it will inspect the border to defend against possible attacks. On the other hand, it will deal with the lord of Jimmy Town. He intends to use the economy to eat their territory and slowly control it in his hands. , Became the source of raw materials in the Merlot area, and then produced goods in exchange for more money from them.
At this time, Aslan also realized a problem, when the Merlot area was truly developed, how should he face the Billy area of the Marquis of Medea.
Aslan's eyes drenched at this time, he felt that Justin this guy must die more and more, so that the Marquis of Medea would completely lose his thoughts, and his whole mind was studying magic and his disciples, and he gave him the entire area of Billy. Not impossible, as long as he can afford the magic resources of the Marquis of Medea.
As for the other brothers, as long as you persuade the Marquis of Medea, everything else is just a small problem.
As for the two elder sisters, Natal and Vatini, Aslan has some ways to deal with them.
When Aslan was planning how to annex the Billy area in the future, Lancelot hurried over with Cruze and Russell.
Aslan was absolutely sure that things had changed in Billy City, but didn't know how serious it was.
"Go back to the camp!" Aslan didn't give Lancelot a chance, and said first.
Lancelot nodded knowingly, while Kruze avoided Aslan's sight with a look of shame. He did not expect that the first task that Aslan gave him would end in this way.
This was a big blow to him, a self-proclaimed genius.
Aslan smiled and nodded at him.
"This change doesn't lie with you, it's because I didn't think about it well. It will be fine if everyone comes back."
