Chapter 124: The Beginning of the Team
Successfully accepted the city of Hao Laiwu, all parties on the mainland received the news almost at the same time, they were quite shocked by the strength of the five thousand soldiers shown by Matt, how could they not have imagined that Matt could summon so many poisonous bees, then, Matt can summon five thousand poisonous bees, can he summon more, and those soldiers, why are they also so powerful, one by one well-trained, then they thought that some time ago, a mysterious force bought slaves on a large scale, and only bought coolie slaves and soldiers, could it be Balipur。
To tell the truth, Balip City is only a nascent force after all, and it is only because of the special location of Ballip City that it has become a better object for all forces, but they don't think that a new force can threaten their big forces, to be honest, they don't put Matt in their eyes, but now, the strength shown by Matt's army has moved all forces, if Matt has more such troops, then Matt's threat will expand infinitely.
Almost at the same time, the various forces made corresponding decisions to restrict the development of Balipur's power.
However, this superficial article still needs to be done, first of all, the Holy See issued a document questioning the sincerity of the Kavin Empire, and the Kavin Empire also very simply killed all the families of the 25,000 detained sergeants, and the family of the former city lord of Haolaiwu City, Skid, was not spared, and announced to the public that those sergeants, who did not listen to the orders of the empire to withdraw, were regarded as complicity and rebellion, and razed the three clans, which was an explanation to Matt.
Matt had expected the behavior of the Kavin Empire, but he didn't expect them to be so ruthless, all of a sudden, nearly 100,000 people were killed like this, without even blinking an eye, he was still a soldier of the empire the day before yesterday, but today he suddenly became a traitor to the empire, which is really unpredictable.
In the past few days, Matt has been entertaining Skid with good food and drink, and Skid is too lazy to resist, and follows Matt's wishes, at the same time, Matt has asked the guards around Skid, and knows about Skid's situation, which Matt is both sympathetic and helpless. Now, it's obviously not enough for Stephenson to manage Ballyproling, and Skid is a good helper, he is a strong manager, but Matt has not been able to succeed in several solicitations.
Now may be an opportunity.
Matt came to the room where he was guarding Skid, and when the guard sergeant who was guarding the door saw Matt coming, he hurriedly saluted, and Matt asked, "Is Skid still inside?"
"Yes, my lord, Skid has been eating and sleeping every day for the past few days."
"Well, okay, open the door, I'm going in"
"It's an adult"
At this time, Skid was lying on the side, tilting his head, his eyes closed, as if thinking about something, the old god was there, but Matt knew that he was coming, but he didn't bother to pay attention, and Matt didn't say much, but sat on the side, quietly waiting.
Long
"Did you know, Mr. Skid, that something has happened to your family," Matt said lightly.
After listening to Matt's words, Skid's body trembled slightly, although he had been prepared for a long time, but when he really heard the news, he still couldn't help it.
"Hey, they're finally doing it," Skid sighed, feeling helpless.
"Hey, why bother?" said Matt, with a long sigh.
"This is the struggle, the interests drive everyone to do it, no one can do it, no one is right or wrong" Skid suddenly replied, "You want to expand your own power, you came to attack the city of Hao Lai, and the Kavin Empire must sacrifice those innocent people in order to keep the city of Hao Lai, and you have sacrificed the interests of others for your own interests, but who can say that you are wrong"
"Yes, I am responsible for a large part of the deaths of those people," Matt said sadly, "but you also know that I have to do this, and I have a reason to do it."
"The reason is just an excuse"
"This" pondered carefully, and it seemed that what Skidd said was quite reasonable.
"Mr. Skid, I have asked you many times to help me manage the Ballip Collar, but you have never agreed, and now I extend an invitation to you again, and I hope you will agree this time"
"Hehe, Lord Matt, can I ask you a question?"
"Mr. Skid, excuse me"
"What do you want to do with your subjects in your realm?"
"How to treat" this Matt really didn't think about it, all along, Matt has always been committed to developing the strength of Baliproling, and not from the perspective of an ordinary person, now that I think about it, I really haven't done enough, although Stephenson is experienced, but after all, he is not good at this, which also strengthens Matt's determination to submit Skid.
"I don't think you thought about it, Lord Matt."
"Uh, this" Matt was a little embarrassed, not knowing what to say.
Suddenly, Skid sat up and said, "Actually, you have been taking care of me for a long time these days, how could I not know what you mean, and I have also thought a lot, I am here, I can't do anything, if Master Matt can agree to my three conditions, I can agree to your invitation"
"Oh, really, what are the three conditions?" asked Matt quickly.
"One, I hope that Lord Matt can reduce the taxes of the subjects in the territory, although I have not managed the city of Hao Lai for a long time, but I have learned that their lives are not easy, they need to pay a lot of taxes to the Kavin Empire every year, and they can't even eat."
"Okay, I'll promise this," Matt naturally agreed very simply.
"Second, I hope that Master Matt will not be overly militaristic and excessively conscripted, because that would be detrimental to the development of the territory," Skid said of his second question.
Even if Skid doesn't mention this second question, Matt knows that there are too many soldiers, and Matt can't think of it, at least for now.
"And what about the third condition?" Matt asked.
"I'm afraid that the third one is the most difficult for you, that is, to befriend the Kavin Empire, I hope that Lord Lord, you can befriend the Kavin Empire, in this way, I am also worthy of my motherland, as long as the Kavin Empire does not do anything to you, you must not be the first to do it"
I didn't expect the Kavin Empire to treat Skid so much, but Skid is still so patriotic, which makes Matt, as a descendant of Yan Huang, very admirable.
And although Matt doesn't care about the Kavin Empire, after all, it is not to the point of life or death, and Matt can also agree to Skid's third condition.
"Okay," Matt nodded and said solemnly.
Then Matt added, "But I have one condition?"
"Lord Matt, please?"
"I hope you will be able to treat the inhabitants of the city and the rest of the territory in unison"
"Please rest assured that Lord Matt is this."
"Okay, then I'll appoint you as the deputy governor of Balip Collar."
"Skid thanked the lord" Seeing that Matt had agreed to him, Skid hurriedly saluted.
After subduing Skid, Matt's men and horses are basically fully equipped, managing Skid and Stephenson, and at the same time, Stephenson has the management intelligence system, and militarily there are Waldmar and Edward, and at the same time, there is the Mossoli family to assist, and in the longevity chart, there are Abegis and Madrido, Matt decided to retreat for a period of time, these days, he feels that he is going to break through the bottleneck again, maybe he can break through to the level of the sword master at one time.
