Lord of the North

Chapter 17 The Falconer

"A branch of the Northlanders, they left the town many years ago and went to the west to establish a village!" Gary said helplessly. The absolute dominance of the nobles made them dare not resist! Otherwise, based on Sir Aoqi's actions, he would have been killed by the angry Northland man long ago!

"All the villages in the territory migrated from Iron Fang Territory?" Jason was a little surprised.

"Yes, my lord, they hated Aoqi's tyranny, so they left their home and opened up a new village!" Gary sighed a little, a jazz would make a big town so dilapidated!

"..." Jason looked back at his several guards.

"Yes, my lord, we used to live here too!" Quick and his little friends saw Jason watching them, and hurriedly responded!

"The Eagle Shepherd's village is now near a cliff in the west. It's almost a day's walk away. That's where the blue eagles live! So they built the village there after they left Iron Fang Town!"

"We should bring them back!" Jason said firmly. The hunter profession of falconer made Jason think a lot!

When there is a war, they can act as an early warning in the air and detect the enemy. Know yourself and the enemy and win a hundred battles! If you discover the enemy's movements in advance, you will be able to control the enemy first!

Besides, he wondered if the hawks could be used to deliver letters! Teleporting new builds with cavalry is just too slow! Error prone!

One day in the future, Iron Fang Territory will go to war with other territories! His own army is far away from that side, if the Iron Fang leader fails to rescue in time, the enemy will take over there! That was really bad for Jason!

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, so Jason secretly made up his mind to take the people in this village back to Iron Tooth Town even if they are kidnapped afterwards! Their military status is too important!

"I think they will be very happy to see the lord personally invite them!" Gary said.

Hard to say! Maybe these people have no trust in the nobles!

"The city guards should not slacken their patrols at night, and the night patrols of the security brigade must not stop!" Lancelot only took away fifty people when he went out for military training this time, and he will take other people out next time. After all, the town cannot be left alone!

"Let's go!" Seeing that everyone had assembled, Jason ordered!

After speaking, he got on his horse and took a step ahead. Fifty city guards in leather armor walked out of the barracks in an orderly manner, followed by several security guards with their hounds! There are relatively few horses in the North, so they are not equipped!

"My lord, we plan to go to the falconer's village first, and then turn to the wasteland area in the south of the territory!" Lancelot came to Jason and said.

"You are the commander of this mission, so don't ask me for my opinion!" Jason said that he should listen to professionals when he goes out to fight, and it's better not to make trouble for himself as a rookie.

When the territory prospers in the future, Lancelot may even be in charge of military affairs!

And the messy government affairs of the small town are handed over to the established town government. Now it’s just a matter of sending the list to Jason for a review every day. Jason only needs to care about some general decisions, such as the ice field expedition some time ago. Team and the "Wildland Reclamation Order", and now he plans to gather the villagers from the outside villages to Tieya Town for unified management!

He is also planning to build another town in the wasteland of the refugees in the south! Serve as a place to trade with other noble fiefdoms! As for Iron Tooth Town, Jason wanted to turn it into a huge war fortress!

After all, Wang Du has a group of people who don't like him very much! There are also guys in the same camp as these people in the Northland!

but! It all costs a fortune! The money required for this is spent in units of tens of thousands of gold coins!

That's why Jason is in a hurry to explore the northern ice sheet! If it doesn't work, he may form a slave hunting group! Hunt down barbarians to sell as coolie slaves on the black market! The slave trade groups established by merchants are allowed in various countries on the continent,

But the nobles are not allowed to set up slave trading groups, and the secret slave hunting groups are even more illegal!

For example, the Earl of Collins in the southern part of the kingdom! He used to be in the slave business, and the slave hunting group he secretly organized once captured elf slaves! This brought him huge financial benefits, and successfully helped him embezzle several small nearby territories, becoming one of the best nobles in the south!

Then the elf assassin touched the mansion, and was almost killed! His secret slave business was also exposed, and until now he has been the laughing stock of the kingdom's nobles, and a villain among the common people!

Some slave hunting groups will raid the villages of the common people and capture human slaves, so they are as unpleasant as the robbers in the eyes of the common people!

In fact, these nobles are more or less involved in the slave business, but hypocritical nobles will not admit it!

There are also some nobles who really hate these slave hunters who catch slaves everywhere! Even some upright nobles will send troops to encircle them!

So he would not secretly support the establishment of the slave hunting group unless it was absolutely necessary!

The whole journey was silent, and the group arrived near the village of the Eagle Shepherd the next morning. They settled down in a place called Eagle Hook Cliff. There are hundreds of people in the whole village! At this time, the scout sent out galloped back with an anxious expression on his face!

"My lord! It's bad! The village ahead has been attacked by bandits!"

"What?" Jason had a look of disbelief! The news came back a few days ago that this group of bandits are still wandering in the wasteland area! How dare you run to the north to attack the village!

"How many are there?" Lancelot asked in a deep voice!

"No less than a hundred people!" The scout swallowed, and replied with some horror!

The team behind immediately buzzed and discussed in low voices, and everyone seemed a little nervous!

"Quiet!" Gary yelled, stopping everyone.

"My lord! These are not ordinary rogues and bandits!" He said seriously, robbers with a scale of a hundred people would not come to the Northland where there is so little oil and water!

"Unless they came to plunder the village and capture slaves!" Jason's face was gloomy.

"It's also possible that some people can't hold back!"

"How far is the village from here?"

"Half an hour's walk!"

"The whole army speeds up!" Jason ordered!

"No matter who it is! I want none of them to leave the Northland!" He said angrily, how could the other party come to attack the falconer's village so coincidentally! There must be a conspiracy here!

"I want them all to work as coolies! Work day and night! Until they die! I want those greedy ghosts in the North to know! Their hands are too long!" Jason's eyes were full of anger!

Alexis beside her also wrinkled her face, looking very angry! She has been here before, and the villagers in the village are very friendly to her, not everyone regards her as ominous! So she is very unhappy now!

"My lord! I saw the village!" Lancelot looked at the village in the distance. There was no smoke rising. It seemed that the situation was not too bad!

"There should be young and strong people staying behind in the village. How could the boys from the Northland be defeated so easily!" Gary said sullenly.

"The whole army checks their equipment and prepares for a surprise attack!" Lancelot said in a deep voice. Although he can deal with them by himself by rushing up now, this will make his soldiers too incompetent!

If every battle is fought by a general, that is really a mockery of the boys from the Northland!

"My lord! This may be a fierce fight! Please don't join the battle for now!" Lancelot said worriedly.

"Alexis can do it!" The little girl was unconvinced! She also got the stubborn temper of those northern men!

"..." Lancelot's words can actually be understood as, my lord! Your strength is too weak! Just fight soy sauce on the outside, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you!

"Okay!" Jason said helplessly.

"Remember, if you are not an opponent, you can do it yourself!" He didn't want his troops to fold here the first time they came out!

"Yes! The security team will stay and protect you! The rest will follow me!" Lancelot didn't ask Alexis to stay, after all, she was about to awaken her extraordinary power! It's good for her to join the fight too!

Lancelot also got off his horse, and walked forward like everyone else, so as not to startle the enemy!

The battle is on the verge of breaking out!
