Chapter 10: Revolt against the Empire

There was a lot of injustice and corruption on the continent of Hadilardo, and the poor became sheep to be slaughtered by the nobles. Gravel thought about it for a long time, and he understood that the only way to really make a good life for the poor was to rely on the sword and army in his hand.

Only if your strength is strong, what you say will have weight!

It takes courage and determination to resist tyranny.

After a night of deliberation, Gravel decided to ask the camp chief for help. The next day, Gravell and Tony went to the chief's tent.

Inside the tent, a stout man in a black vest was reading a book. The muscles on the man's body were clearly visible, and his body proportions were perfect.

Seeing Gravel and them approaching, the man put down the book.

"What are you looking for me?"

"Chief, we do want to talk to you. ”

"Oh" The stout man showed a hint of interest in Gravel, at least he was willing to listen to what Gravel had to say.

"First of all, I have to thank the chief for taking us in. Secondly, I just want to say that I have a way to make our Camp of Refugees stronger. ”

"What did you do, young man?"

"I turned out to be a mercenary captain. ”

"Then what can you do to make our camp stronger?"

"Robbing the military's convoys. ”

"What? You're too bold!"

"High risk also means high reward. Gravel told the stout man about some of the historical successes.

"This ......," the man thought, touching his beard

"You're making us hit a stone with an egg, and how can I believe you, you've only been here for more than half a month. The man said after a moment

"You may not believe me, but you have to trust your men. None of them were oppressed and destroyed by those nobles. I think the reason why you set up such a camp is also to benefit the civilians. If it's for the sake of civilians, why not benefit more civilians?"

The man began to look impressed at the unremarkable young man in front of him, and he drew his sword from the table.

"It will cost a lot of people's lives, but I am willing to give it a try so that more people can live well. Young man, can you give me some better advice?"

"Yes, I have some more specific options. ”

"Please. The chief's attitude was noticeably much better, even a little kind.

Gravel talked to the leader for the whole afternoon, during which time Tony stayed by Gravel's side.

The next day, the valley, which had been peaceful and tranquil, began to come alive. All those in the camp who could hold weapons were called to the leader of Morin to assemble.

The autumn breeze in the Wilson Forest has a faint earthy fragrance, and there is no coolness at all.

The chieftain, Morin, stood on a high platform and looked out at the poor people who trusted him.

"Brothers and sisters, today I have gathered all of you together just to announce two things. The first thing is that the four behind me will officially become part of our camp for the refuge. Maureen introduced Gravel to the audience.

"The second thing is that we will be completely at odds with the nobles of the Delman Empire in the future. We will not be like before, we will only hide in the valley. We are going to deal a heavy blow to these Delman nobles who eat people and do not spit out bones, and the light of our Wilson will shine on every land of Norsland. ”

When Maureen finished announcing the second thing, the people below were in an uproar. There was a lot of discussion, some expressing readily approval, some hesitating, and some resolutely opposing.

Looking at the attitude of everyone below, Morin's attitude seemed very resolute.

Most people are actually hesitant because they are afraid, and they dare not resist tyranny. After summoning, Morin assigned the responsible positions to the people below.

Gravel followed Merlin to the makeshift command tent.

"Gravel, you see, although my people agree to rebel against the tyranny of the Empire, they are not in harmony. There will be very few people who will really follow us. Maureen and Gravel sat down facing the table

"Lord Morin, the reason why those people hesitate is because they are afraid that their lives will be in danger if we fail. What we need most now is a win, so our first game is very important. In this battle, we need to give enough confidence to those who join us, and in addition, we can spread the prestige of our Wilson. ”

"I also know that our first battle is important, but where do we start?"

"Lord Morin, I can check in with Haiyabao to see if any Imperial convoys have been passing by recently, and by the way, bring my mercenary team to the valley as well. ”

"Gravel, I believe in you. Maureen patted Gravel on the shoulder

Leaving Maureen's tent, Gravel finds Tony. After telling Tony the specific plan, the two simply packed their bags.

Then the two of them left the camp of the refugees and hurried towards the outskirts of Haiya Fort.

Outside the city, there is still a vast array of campsites. As far as the eye can see, almost all of them are mercenary tents.

"It's the regular army of the Empire, my lord. Tony whispered to Gravel

"It looks like they've stepped up their management outside the city, so we need to be careful. ”

Gravel pulled the black hood he wore on his head down, slightly bowing his head to avoid the patrolling Imperial regulars.

Arriving at the mercenary camp where they were stationed outside the city, Gravel and Tony entered the tent.

Due to Gravel's departure, the mercenaries had already gone quite a bit, and only a team of about forty people remained.

These forty or so men were all on good terms with Gravel, and very loyal. Among them was a middle-aged uncle named Hyperbur. Hybor was usually responsible for the food of the people who stayed behind, as well as the custody of the property left behind by Gravel. When Gravel saw Haybur offering the heirloom sword in both hands, he couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart.

"Haybur, thank you so much. ”

"What the adults said is too outlandish, I am such a helpless middle-aged man. How would I have survived if I hadn't been hired by adults?"

"Well, you'll be by my side from now on. I'll pay you double my salary. By the way, have you heard anything about the military lately?"

"My lord, I heard that a batch of important goods will be delivered to Haiyabao recently, and it is estimated that it will arrive in two days. ”

"Okay, I got it. You give the order to go down, and we will take advantage of the darkness to pull out the camp and evacuate here. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

Gravel then handed Tony the flag with the Black Eagle motif.

"Take it, it will be the soul of our team"

"Don't worry, sir. ”
