Boulder Town held on to the seventh day after the war, because Ron, who had always been a messenger, was injured and returned to the valley to recuperate, and Felix, who went to the county town of Tignats to report the results of the battle to the county magistrate Viscount Pierre, returned with him, along with several county officials and soldiers who came to verify the war exploits, and of course, some commendation materials and weapons and ordnance that Viscount Pierre gave to Art in the name of the county magistrate.

After Felix arrived in Tignez, he boasted that the palace guard knight and border patrol officer Arter led his army to defeat hundreds of bandits, beheading nearly 100 bandits, the great leader of the bandits, and the rest of the bandits were also beheaded.

This is true or false, plus Felix did bring a lot of bandit heads, the news of the county's victory in the bandit crackdown spread more and more, at first there were people who did not believe that hundreds of formations were repelled and nearly a hundred, but soon after that, dozens of miles of roads on the southern trade road were lined with bandit heads, and now the entire county of Tinets was boiling.

In the military tent, Felix spat and said that the townspeople cheered when the battle against bandits was loudly publicized in the county town of Tignats, "Brother-in-law, this time your reputation has spread throughout Tignats County, and the people of the county call you "the head of the owl", and Viscount Pierre also said that he will report Tignets's exploits to the court of Besançon, and your name may spread throughout the country at that time. ”

For Tiniez County, which was ravaged by bandits, it was indeed a great feat to defeat hundreds of bandits and kill nearly 100 bandits at one time, but such an achievement must be verified before daring to report to the court, and it is not a trivial matter to lie about military exploits. Therefore, after receiving the report from Art, Viscount Pierre immediately selected a county official and took a few soldiers south to verify the battle exploits.

Art rubbed his hands together and instructed Felix: "You go and tell Odo, let him prepare some delicious food and wine for the county officials who come to inspect, and when they have eaten and drunk enough, he will take them to inspect the battlefield and count the heads." ”

At noon, Otto ordered someone to prepare a table of rich food and wine for the county officials and soldiers who came to check the merits of the war, and when the officers and soldiers were half drunk, Otto handed the leading officials a few small silver coins, and the inspectors took people to look at the bloodstained battlefield outside the camp and asked someone about the details of the battle, and it only took less than an hour to check the merits of the war The task was over. After all, the heads of the bandits on the trade route were standing there, and there were two heads every other mile, which was very good.

In the afternoon, the well-fed county magistrate refused Odo's warm stay and left Boulder with a conclusion that his results were true, and what awaited Yat would be a reward from the court after Tinetz's report.

And the fame of the "Tyrant" Yate is also spreading more and more in the county......

"The Leader! I think it's a big deal to scare off a few bandits who are not much stronger than serfs. ”

In Winchestton Manor, south of the county town of Tiniez, the new owner of the estate, the knight of the court guard, Dean, walks around the lord's office.

Old Dian, a lean businessman in a silk robe, sat behind the desk in the room and closed his eyes in contemplation.

Seeing that his father was unmoved, Dean continued to clamorate: "Father, do you say that that bastard is just lucky." ”

Old Dean opened his eyes and scolded softly: "People in their twenties are still so breathless, sit down for me." ”

Dean sat down obediently with his head drooping.

After a while, Old Dean's voice sounded: "Let you send someone to inquire about that caravan, is there any news?" ”

"Word has come back that our men have seen the caravan in the west. They haven't been trading much in the south since we seized their goods in Besançon. After the last time our bribes attacked their caravans, these cowardly mongrels didn't even dare to take the Tinies trade route, and now they are said to be helping that old thing in Sapgalvin transport goods. Dean replied with disdain, feeling that after the lessons learned in the Besanpine and birch forests, Arte's caravan had utterly conceded defeat.

But after all, the big businessman Lao Dean has been up and down in the business sea for many years, and he knows that in the face of such huge interests, the opponent will definitely not admit defeat so easily, and there must be turbulent waves hidden behind the tranquility.

"Do you think your opponent has thrown in the towel?" Dean Sr. asked.

Dean looked confident, "What else?" How capable can a bastard from a pariah's background be. ”

Old Dean saw that his son didn't think deeply about what he was talking and doing, and he suddenly became angry, and said, "Stupid! Do you really think that Yate is relenting and admitting defeat? Can you use your brain, why did he hesitate to kill and die recently, and chased the bandits all the way north along the Southern Trade Route to eliminate the bandits? Just look at what he did in the South to know that his plans are not small. Haven't you noticed that the southern traders who have come to Tignets have been almost cut off lately? And our caravans have been heavily taxed as they pass through the southern border lately, and you think he's just trying to extort our money out of his anger? ”

"The reason for the discontinuation of the southern goods traders is that the bandits have been too rampant recently, and those black-robed dogs are fighting everywhere, who dares to walk on the southern trade route with valuable southern goods. Besides, that bastard's caravan has never operated in the south again, and now it doesn't even dare to leave the trade route of Tignacs, isn't this already admitting defeat to us? Dean was not convinced.

"That's people clenching their fists! Once he clears both sides of the southern trade route, he will definitely resume the southern goods trade, not to mention that now he has become Sap Galvin's son-in-law, although Galvin's soft egg will not intervene in the southern goods trade on the eastern front, but don't forget that Galwin is worth a huge amount of money, once that wild wolf gets Galvin's funding, then we will have to pay a greater price! ”

"Dean, you give me a reminder to never underestimate your opponent! And your opponent is not of pariahish origin, he is the son of a baron! ”

"Son of the deposed baron," Dean muttered quietly.

"A deposed baron is also a baron!" Old Dean saw that his son was still looking down at this moment, and the anger in his heart was even stronger.

Seeing that his father was about to get angry, Dean quickly changed the subject and asked, "Then what should we do now?" ”

Old Dean also felt that his temper was too great, so he took a breath and eased up, and said: "First, the caravan we went south to buy goods should increase the number of guards, maybe one day that guy will dare to swallow our caravan, if there are more people, he will at least be a little more jealous." At the same time, I will recruit more guards to garrison the manor to prevent him from doing anything worse at Wincheston Manor, as he has done before; Second, I will continue to contact the guilds in the North, so that they will all isolate the caravan, and even if he can get his goods to the Northlands, I will leave him with nowhere to sell; Third, you must continue to let the men of the Ryan Manor keep an eye on that bastard for us, and kill him as soon as his caravan passes through the Tignets road. ”
