The Defeated Dragon

Over the next few days, it's harvest time.

Count Falcon did not come to retaliate, reclaiming his territory and castle, leaving the Knights of Coral Island to completely plunder the city.

“Neither a Pokémon found, nor a ransom-paying knight willing to contribute to the Pokémon… Before the war began, Count Wanderlux and his followers were ready to move important Pokémon and other supplies away.” Viscount Jonas complained.

Viscount Trick said with emotion: "At least we have more supplies than ever before. ”

He recalls the past: "In my memory, following adults for almost two decades in the battle for a pioneering order, only three gains exceeded this one. One was a thousand miles of rushing to plunder a large iron ore, which led to the Dragon Knight's pursuit; one was to capture the Sky Knight and get two Pokémon for ransom; and the other was to plunder a large number of gems. ”

“Indeed, this time we will not only plunder large quantities of goods, but also complete our involvement in the surrounding territories, with no less success. Moreover, it is of immense benefit to be able to collect prisoners and supplement the knights under our command. ”

“Speaking of which, it would not have been easy to win such a glorious victory if it had not been for Viscount Lester's ex-military protrusion.” Without Jetson's siege deterrence, forcing Hot Sword Sage to launch an attack, we have no chance of breaking the vanilla leaf castle, "Trick said. ”

“He has not only a trembling forest, but also eight blizzard beasts, no wonder everyone says he is the son of glory… this time his harvest is second only to that of the Count, he chose to buy serfs, with his spoils of war, he can probably buy more than 10,000 serfs, and the territory will soon outgrow us. ”

Trick suddenly asked, "Jonas, where do you think Viscount Lester's future is? ”

Jonas frowned and thought, then shook his head a moment later and replied: "I don't know, but I believe that if Lord Count went further and became the new Marquis of the Grand Duchy, Viscount Lister would be worthy of Count status in the future. ”

“I feel the same way... the second son of the blind Tulip family, who knew he would be such a shining presence, the Knight Glory to all his loved ones. ”

“It is not only the glory of the knight, but his strength is equally remarkable, and I feel that this time he has shown more strength than me. Especially with his archery, he can already intervene in the battle between Sky Knights, and I have no doubt that if he works with Jensen to defeat a Sky Knight, ”

“Really, he's so powerful already? He was an apprentice knight before he was an adult, right? ”

“I don't know how he practiced, but he became a Sky Knight in the near future.” Jonas recalls the process of dealing with Lester and makes such predictions.

Trick was somewhat doubtful: "I didn't feel his breath was stronger than it was during the Battle of Iron Shoe Island. ”

“I have also noticed this, but his strength has indeed become stronger.” Jonas shook his shoulder, "and as to whether that was the case, perhaps it won't be long before we understand. ”

“Maybe. ”

……

People are talking about Lister's strength.

Over the past two years, he's been too strong to be right on Coral Island. The birth of Pokémon, the raising of intermediate warcraft, the promotion of Viscounts, the acquisition of enclosed islands, and the strength of elite earth knights who have even surpassed the old drug currents have changed too much.

On a monotonous, boring coral island, the name Lester is the son of glory, and no one can refute it.

In the past, Lester was very opposed to such a high profile.

But having a seat with Marquis Merlyn made him realize that a low profile is not necessarily the best option. He is the son of the Count, and is of Marquis blood, and is born of high rank. Demonstrate your talent, as long as it is not too appalling and harmless.

If he is awkward at the Battle of Iron Hoof Island, how can he seal Dark Horse Island?

If this pioneering has made him awkward, how can he rave about warfare, spoils of war, buy a large number of serfs, and rob Falcon of a large number of craftsmen in the city?

“My lord, after consultations, we have ‘persuaded’ one hundred and ten artisans to bring their families to settle in Black Horse Island.” Marcus said excitedly.

“Very well, when these craftsmen get aboard, they must instruct their entourage to take care of them and not let them die unnecessarily. ”

“Understood, My Lord! ”

“By the way, Teacher Marcus, how was the serf-trade with the mercenaries? ”

“We have submitted enough spoils of war and the mercenary regiment is gradually driving the serfs to the port to trade with us. The Red Crab Island fleet also leases us 20 merchant ships to carry serfs, plus Coral Island merchant ships, and we have 30 merchant shippers. ”

A double-mast merchant ship can carry 300 people while guaranteeing the healthy ride of serfs.

Thirty merchant ships are 9,000 people.

“Our spoils of war, enough serfs to ship twice, right?” Lester also asked that he was primarily responsible for the war and that Marcus had become a good assistant in the slave trade.

Marcus shook his head: “The mercenary regiment is overpriced, the loot here is generally one third to one fifth cheaper than on Coral Island, and we can probably buy 13,000 serfs after saving on the cost of chartering merchant ships. ”

13,000 serfs.

Has far exceeded Lester's psychological bottom line.

But he was still greedy: “I'll find a way to borrow some money and try to fill up another merchant ship! ”

“My lord, we have purchased so many serfs that the Territory's food stock is probably insufficient.” Marcus said, "Before you left, you stockpiled food for 10,000 people to spend the winter on, and if 18,000 serfs were to be transported, the food would certainly not be satisfied. ”

“Then borrow money, rent free merchant ships of other nobles, and transport food back. ”

How bold people are and how big the land is.

He is no longer satisfied with small-time mischief, but wants to develop across the board.

“Renting merchant ships at this time will surely have to pay a high price, and every great lord comes to the Kingdom of the Eagle to plunder supplies and return them to his territory. ”

“Not necessarily, not all lords can lead the Order, plunder the castle and plunder so much material. I remember the last pioneering order, when the family fleet was not full of supplies and a few merchant ships came home empty.” Lister tells Marcus, go rent it.

As long as Ken spends money, empty boats can definitely be hired and food can definitely be bought.

Borrowing money once, borrowing again or borrowing again, he believed he could receive enough gold coins from Count Lee William and Uncle Messiro to buy empty boats loaded with food.

At the same time, he will write to Gaultai to make him buy more food and store more food for the winter.

“Gorte, however, has been too slow to complete his smoke mission so far, wondering if he has not stored enough food… There is no smoke mission, it is always felt that this pioneering order will not necessarily receive more rewards than the Battle of Iron Shoe Island. ”

The reward for the smoke mission is to feed his appetite.
