The joy of a triumphant return?

Does that really exist?

Freud ordered the robbers' stronghold to be ransacked, but alas, there was no legendary treasure to spare. Where will the robbers of poverty have much wealth?

In the rain, the wounded troops temporarily moved into the stronghold to take shelter from the rain.

The clean-up of the battlefield was extensive and inhumane.

The bodies of their comrades were collected together and temporarily placed in a spacious lobby that appeared to be of the robbers.

And the body of the robber ...... The heads of all the bandits were cut off and thrown on carts.

Yes, "all the people" of this stronghold, "all are bandits".

Of course, the bodies of the bandit leaders on the wanted warrants, some guys with bounties, are well preserved.

And the words of others......

Adult men must be bandits, and it doesn't matter if they are old, they can still be bandits.

If a woman cuts off her hair, destroys her pretty face, and puts stains on it—she also becomes a vicious bandit.

As for children, if they look similar, they can still become bandits after their faces are disfigured.

As for babies and stuff...... It's a pity, but it's a pity to throw it with the corpses that have lost their heads.

Weken quietly watched the veterans clean up the corpses on the battlefield and educate the recruits on the side to "operate normally".

This caused many recruits to vomit stomach acid.

This is the way this world is handled, all enemies are war merits, and war merits can be applied to the nobles who allocate money, food, equipment and support to support this army.

At least the old officer Voloyd was very merciful and ordered the bodies of the bandits to be burned and buried after the rain.

The cleaning is over for the time being.

"Weken, come with me!" Voyd casually picked up a towel he found in the bandit's den, wiped his wet face, and shouted to Weken, who was sitting not far from Ron and Cooy.

Weken stood up, lifted the strawfork, and nodded silently.

Floyd was stunned, frowned, and pointed to the strawfork in Weken's hand, signaling to throw it away.

Weken shook his head.

Who knows if there will be a sudden battle around you?

Freud was silent for a moment, then tossed a long sword to Weken and motioned, "Use this." ”

Wei Ken was slightly stunned: "Ron's?"

Floyd nodded: "Ron can't take this thing with him, leave it to the more needy." ”

Weken nodded silently, sling the sword around his waist, but still carrying a strawfork.

Spear four in a row, already in battle and in slaughter, upgraded to skilled.

"Do you like this strawfork? Forget it, you don't understand it anyway, just take it if you like." Freud didn't say anything more, and motioned for Wayken to follow.

In the caves deep in the stronghold, the bandits' entire wealth is stacked. Now, these riches, which they have lost their lives and not protected, have been sorted out by two veterans and packed in two small wooden boxes.

Weken was a little confused.

In this place, only veterans are allowed to approach by Freud, and recruits are only allowed to guard the door outside at most.

"Open them. ”

"Yes. ”

The two veterans nodded and opened the two boxes.

Jewelry, Gold, Djerals, Diamonds......

There are quite a lot of variety, but the number is not amazing.

This is a lot of wealth for an individual, enough to make a person live a life of worry-free food and drink for a lifetime. But for a stronghold of three hundred people, a force of more than one hundred and fifty people...... Nothing counts......

While Weken was confused, Freud patted one of the chests, which contained mainly gold and Djerus, "Wecan, come here, grab a handful and go back, don't treat yourself badly." I've seen your performance on the battlefield. You are the bravest of all the recruits. ”

Weken didn't speak.

"Let me guess......" Freud seemed to have heard the rumor that Weken "didn't understand", and gestured with his hands, "How many people did you kill? I guess, about thirty, right? Three squads of robbers, aren't they?"

28 people.

"They're all captives...... Weken bowed his head......

"Oh, I didn't see the captives. Floyd nodded slightly, and calmly replied, "None of them are prisoners here, they are all thugs who fought to the last moment and killed our comrades." ”

"Wealth, leave it to Cuy, Ron ......" Looking at the box of money, Weken finally shook his head, "Their family...... Need ......"

Floyd was silent, and the two veterans standing next to him seemed to be a little unbearable, and they both turned their backs.

"Maybe you don't understand...... Weken ......" Floyd stepped forward, patted Weken on the shoulder, and sighed, "Kuyta, no family. Ron, I once persuaded him to go back and marry a daughter-in-law and have a fat son...... But he refused...... You want to give them more benefits, but no one can accept them on their behalf. ”

As he spoke, Freud patted the other chest, which contained mainly jewelry, and sneered, "Weken, see this? This is what we are going to offer to the nobles! to those who have spent ...... Hmm, how many Djeru coins?"

Freud thought for a moment, and sneered: "Ha! Those rich nobles! They keep their mistresses outside, and give them more jewelry than this box! But those fellows, no matter how much wealth they offer, they can gladly accept it! ”

Weken was silent.

It turns out that there are real nobles in this world...... No, at the beginning, I vaguely guessed something. But when I really understood and heard, I was still surprised by myself.

"Oh...... I forgot you couldn't understand such complicated words. It's amazing that you're a good listener, and anyone will want to talk to you about their own chores. Freud sighed, picked up two pieces of gold and stuffed them into Wei Ken's hand, "Young man, there are three things in this world that are worth your hard work. ”

"Three?" Wei Ken looked at the two gold bars in his hand, a little confused.

"Huh?" Freud patted his head, "it's not that you don't understand it completely, it's okay to be simple...... Well, I'll try to keep it simple......"

"Power!" Freud said solemnly, "with power, you can enjoy life." With wealth, you can live a life of abundance. ”

"The third?"

"The third ......," Freud said solemnly, after a moment of silence, "family." Love your family. ”

Weken didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he was silent.

"These two gold bars, let me guess, one can be exchanged for 10,000 Jerus, right? enough for you to spend, any more will attract the attention of the ill-intentioned guys. Take it and go to the country nobles to buy a piece of land, build a house, and find a beautiful wife. Freud waved his hand, "You guy is very brave, very righteous, and has excellent fighting talent......

But here, Freud was silent for a long time, and finally said the rest of the words.

"But you're not fit to be a soldier. You don't have the talent to be a general. If you're only going to earn money as a soldier, I suggest you go back...... This time, you already have enough money. You're not like us, those of us who 'must' be soldiers all our lives. ”

Wei Ken looked at the two gold bars in his hand, and finally shook his head: "I, I want to continue to be a soldier......"

Freud was a little skeptical that his dancing was a bit redundant, but at this time he still gestured and asked, "You guy, do you really understand?"

"Part of the ......" Wei Ken did not confess all of them.

Of course, now I am able to communicate normally.

But I do feel more used to being a listener than a confidant.
