No matter what incredible and wonderful properties Iguli discovered and what exaggerated "magic" he developed, the days of "peace" passed day by day...... The snow in the middle of winter gradually stopped, the snow on the mountains began to melt, and the warm spring day shone on the earth without the cover of large dark clouds, and the snow-white velvet jacket covering the Yasuo Forest was gradually removed with the river that began to gradually warm, and one by one it was replaced with a green tulle full of spring.

It is a sign that the end of the coldest winter is slowly coming to an end, heralding the beginning of a new year.

Until one day, it was Iguli who came up with the idea to let the friends cover for themselves, and the children began to be active in the village again - following the pottery uncle in the pottery workshop, a group of little children learned to play with mud and had fun.

Once again, the peaceful village of Yuno has welcomed a familiar honored guest, or it would be more accurate to say that it is "host".

Just because the image of the pine surrounded by pine needle-style ornaments is the small flag marked by the carriage in which the comer rides, and the coat of arms that everyone in the barony is familiar with, it means that the nobles on the carriage are naturally not just stewards and servants, but must be the bloodline heirs who can represent the family flag!

(The Scots pine here is the European Scots pine that grows in the Caucasus Mountains of Europe.) ）

Even if he is not the master of the house, he must be an important relative of the host's family, or an equally important, or even more distinguished guest or friend......

Anyway, to be able to sit in such a carriage-equipped existence, ability and identity must be very noble, for Barony Lauren, and even more so for the small village of Yuno.

The wagons on the carriages passed through the gaps reserved for the simple defensive rejection of horses in the village, and standing on the high platform that served the functions of both watching the fire and watching the enemy, the hunter and militia in charge of the lookout saw the passing carriages, and did not even sound the alarm bells, but only carved them on the record board a few times.

And this is not a dereliction of duty or perfunctory, and the fact is that in the face of the arrival of people at this time, it is completely sufficient for the sentry to do it to this extent...... Because the flag on the carriage and the identity of the person on the carriage represents.

The so-called territory is the territory led by the lord, the lord is the person in charge of the territory recognized and appointed by the kingdom, and is the actual master and guide of the civilians living in the territory, enjoying the rights of taxation and conscription generated by the management of the territory, while also shouldering the obligation to protect the security, stability and healthy development of the territory.

Of course, on the bright side, whether it is a new aristocrat or a successor nobility, every nobleman in the kingdom has the custom of swearing allegiance to the king and the royal family when they are knighted, but in the eyes of others, it is up to them to see how reliable this kind of loyalty on the surface can be in the hearts of the nobles.

But no matter how desolate and treacherous the Barony of Lauren, which was accompanied by the frontier forests, was until now, there was no doubt that the Barony of Laurent was still the domain of his Barony Lauren.

Therefore, in order to ensure the safety and stability of the territory, the main way for the Baron to fulfill his obligations is to assign knights loyal to Baron Lauren and certain service soldiers to carry out regular daily patrols in shifts, and at the same time, these teams also shoulder the responsibilities of routine taxation, transmission of information, and material escort when necessary, which has to be said to be a right enjoyed without affecting the normal operation of the territory.

This is also the main reason why the kingdom allows the nobles of the realm to have a certain amount of private soldiers, except for knights...... First and foremost, there is no one and no force to deter, how can the nobles protect their territory?

A large number of dangerous territories belong to the Guz Kingdom anyway, and the civilians living on them are also the treasures of the kingdom, and giving relatively reliable nobles a reward territory can not only give meritorious nobles a lot of wealth (many nobles actually don't have much money), but also give nobles a platform to show their excellent management ability (the quality of governance territory can be most intuitively reflected from the tax).

But it is impossible for the kingdom to recruit and send troops on its own for everything, whether it is because of the obstruction of the old aristocratic forces, or the financial resources of the kingdom itself, it is impossible to do so, the investment is too large and there must be a lot of unwillingness to serve in other places after the soldiers are trained in non-war periods, and there are even fewer people who are still willing to stay in the army after retiring...... When the time comes, the veterans will all be sent to the nobles of their respective hometowns, and the gains outweigh the losses!

It would be better to directly restrict the policy of levying private soldiers!

Therefore, for the kingdom, it is easy to say that it can guarantee tax revenue, and does not have the intention of unlimited conscription or rebellion, after all, the tax collector of each lord is a person appointed by the kingdom, and most of them are behind the figure of the Church of the Heavenly Father or the great nobles, and nominally and most of them are actually responsible to the king...... This kind of person who represents the interests of the vast majority of the forces in the kingdom will never dare to do anything about taxes, after all, he can't help himself, and the nobles of the territory dare not and can't deceive.

As for threats, persecution?

They are just small people who can't help themselves, and they can move them, but it's hard to say how the forces behind them will interpret the actions of the territorial nobles!

And the knights and service soldiers basically have no complaints about the tasks assigned by Baron Lauren except for security and stability, after all, the "tasks" that are not easy to explain and not too excessive can actually be regarded as fat, you must know how to carry out the work is not the same, in practice, there can still be some water, just take advantage of some small advantages within the tolerance allowed by the lord, basically do not care......

On second thought, isn't this a deliberate incentive for the lords?

......

The lord's banner is the face of the lord, even the bandits do not dare to pretend to be the head of the noble's trip - planting the flag, which is a completely different concept from intercepting, pursuing, robbing, killing and attacking the nobleman's car, after all, this kind of target is too big, it is easy to imagine that if the conspiracy is not big, no one will choose this reckless way at all!

You must know that the groom who drives for the nobles cannot be ordinary people, at least the veteran knights who are familiar with the new and old soldiers and soldiers have that qualification, and the nobles travel to protect the knights are also indispensable, even if they can't recognize the people who drive, it is impossible for recruits who serve in big names like guardian knights not to recognize them!

Therefore, the nobleman's car is not just to identify a flag, it is a big crime to pretend to be a nobleman, not to mention the person who is pretending to be the lord.

Of course, for ordinary villagers, even if it is unfortunate that someone pretending to be a nobleman comes, the survival point of the sentry also tells them to record it and stay vigilant, and everything is solved by the village chief.

However, the people who came to Yuno Village this time were not impostors, and now everyone knew that Eno in the village was a person favored by Lord Baron, and it was not the first time that Lord Baron's car came, so naturally panic would not cause it, but rather a warm welcome......
