William got more than 150 silver coins and more than 100 serfs, and more than 30 of these serfs were strong laborers who could go to war, which was extremely high, and Baron Comos treated him well.

When William got his hands on the silver coins, he did not store them, but bought three more heads of his riding spears, some miscellaneous items, and then bought twenty ploughing oxen for a hundred silver coins.

The price of ploughing cattle is far inferior to war horses, good war horses can be sold for more than thirty silver coins, and the most expensive ploughing cattle are only five or six, but William's insight is not comparable to these turtle lords, he clearly knows how important it is to have enough productivity, even if he wins every battle, but it is not uncommon for lords to become poorer and poorer.

William believed that as long as the productivity of his territory was sufficient, he would be able to make a comeback even if he suffered a failure.

So William is willing to spend a lot of money to buy these ploughing cattle, you know, fifty silver coins are one-third of his war, as for horse farming, William basically ruled out this choice, he has fewer horses in this area, and horses are also horses, "The price of horses is too expensive, and they can't afford to raise at all, not to mention that they have to give good material when the farm is busy, and the cattle don't have so many requirements.

Now there are only more than thirty silver coins left in his hand, although it is not a small amount, but if there is any emergency, these money will be used as a backup.

Because William's side of him and William had become knights, and there was no one to guard him, the baron had several armed infantry follow him.

William rode on his horse, and several armed infantry behind him led more than a hundred allotted serfs, as well as twenty ploughing oxen that William had bought, and walked towards Xiliu Village, where William said to an armed infantryman: "You take this document and go to Orchard Village to proclaim my rule."

Orchard Village is the second mining village that Baron Comos gave him, and I heard that there are more than 100 people in the village, which is a small and medium-sized village, and William can mobilize more troops.

The armed infantry took the order and left the group, and William and the others continued to advance towards the village of Stream.

Entering the village, William immediately frowned, several rooms had signs of being burned, and it didn't look like a fire.

It was not a fire, it must have been in danger, he suddenly thought that this place was not too far from the Pamir bandits, and that this village used to belong to Baron Comos, and he did not dare to make trouble, but now that the owner of the village has changed to himself, it is not a matter of concern.

Wanting to bring it here, a cold light flashed in William's eyes, and now I don't know if they did it, but if they did it, then William wants them to know that he is not easy to bully.

Even if the robbers robbed, it was impossible to kill the entire village, except for the few houses at the head of the village, the others did not seem to have any effect.

William walked past a few houses at the head of the village, and there were still many villagers in the village, and William came back with a large group of people and shouted, "Lord Sir is back!" ”

When the villagers heard this, they gathered and looked at William with expectant eyes.

There was a wriggling in the crowd, and the village elder made his way through the crowd and walked to William's side, who rolled over and dismounted, waiting for the village elder's report.

After a few days, the village elder's face became more wrinkled, and he looked even older.

"What happened? Tell me all! William said.

"Yes, Lord Sir, since you left, the next day, a group of stupid robbers came, they were armed with weapons, there were more than a hundred in number, led by a robber who claimed to be the Baron of the Forest Pamir, they robbed all our stock, not to mention, even the seeds of next year were snatched away, and more than twenty women in the village were also robbed by them, Lord Sir, you ask Lord Baron to help!" The village elder slowly told the story of the matter and asked.

William frowned when he heard this, it turned out that they really did it, this more than 100 people is not something that a small knight can fight against, although there are more than forty trained serfs in the village, but they can never be compared with the robbers, the number is not as good as others, not to mention, even the experience is not as good as others.

The key is still the number of people, if there are only twenty or thirty people, even if it is thirty or forty people, these trained serfs dare to fight with them, but more than a hundred people are really too much, and William has no way at all.

It seems that he can only seek the help of Baron Comos, and when he swore allegiance, he mentioned that Baron Comos would shelter him if he encountered something that William could not solve, so he was ready to go to the baron.

William first settled more than 100 serfs in the village, told them to take care of the ploughing cattle, and then stepped on the horse again, urging the horses to gallop away from the Comos Manor.

William re-arrived at Comos Manor in the evening, and the two guards at the gate also knew William, and said, "Hello Sir William, I will report to the Baron first. ”

William nodded, and the guard immediately ran in to inform the baron, and after a while, the guard walked out again and said, "Sir William, Lord Baron, please come in!" ”

William didn't say much, left the horse outside, and walked into the manor by himself.

Having come to the banquet many times, William was already familiar with the distribution of the manor, and soon walked to the study where the baron usually stayed, William knocked on them, and after obtaining permission, pushed the door in.

"What's the matter? Sir William? Baron Comos asked in a steady tone, rising from his chair.

William took a deep breath and said what he meant: "Lord Baron, my village has been plundered by the Pamirs, they have robbed me of all the food in my territory, and more than twenty women, I have come to seek your refuge now, this is what I promised when I swore allegiance.

Baron Comos didn't say much, his fingers tapping on the table.

"What? Can't the Baron? William looked at his hesitation, a little anxious.

"Sir William, you can't be unaware of which bandit you have been in so long, right? They are numerous, and the most important thing, their cottage is in the direct domain of Viscount Winston, and if my men enter rashly, it will be seen as a provocation to him. ”

"After all, Viscount Winston and my feudal lord Viscount Raul are also colleagues, and there is no discord, so this may lead to a conflict between Viscount Raul and Viscount Winston, and this responsibility is something I can't bear."

William listened to Baron Comos's explanation and fell into deep thought, he had known that the bandit group was in Viscount Winston's territory, but he didn't expect that so many things would be involved.

"That'...... That's how the loss in my territory counts? I don't care about the serfs I lost? Then I will lose my majesty. William said with a frown.

"I can give you a document, you ask Viscount Winston for this price, I can ask you to ask for the help of your colleagues, and I can send some armed infantry under my command, I can also lend you some weapons temporarily, but I can't help you directly, once Viscount Winston doesn't buy it, then I have no choice, do you want to think about it yourself!"

Baron Comos still cares more about William, he doesn't want William to have an opinion on him, and he doesn't want his knights to have an opinion on him, after all, no one dares to guarantee that the bandit group will not plunder his head that day, if the baron doesn't care about it, he will lose the support of the knights.

Baron Comos also thought a lot, and he didn't want to take responsibility for the accident, and he also had the intention of saying these words, that is, once Viscount Winston was angry, he could push William out to calm his anger.

It's a good calculation, it's done, he can be said to have maintained the property of his knights, if Viscount Winston is angry, he can also shirk the responsibility, of course William can see it, his soul comes from the Celestial Empire, which is the best at intrigue, how can this little trick not be seen? First, he is his own feudal lord, and second, William will definitely not be able to compete with the robbers on his own strength.

Even if they add Urimu and Nova, they are not their opponents, and as for whether Urimu and Novo will help them, there is no need to doubt it.

William agreed, and in his mind, as long as he had enough troops, he would first have people send documents, and then quickly destroy the enemy, and then give half of the treasure accumulated by the robbers to Viscount Winston, get a fortune, and clean up the cancer, he would definitely not be angry.

Thinking of this, William said goodbye to Baron Comos and went to the territories of various knights overnight to ask for help.

Under William's rhetoric, all his colleagues agreed to help him, and were able to put together a different number of light infantry, as for Urimu and Norwen, who had just heard what William said, they immediately said that they would lead all the serfs in the territory to help William.

The next morning, William returned to Comos Manor and gathered more than twenty armed infantry, took seventy or eighty spears from the warehouse, and returned to Stream Village, where he found that all the knights had led the light infantry to assemble in Stream Village.

In fact, the knights are so active, not only because William is their colleague, but also because William promised to distribute the two deals accumulated by these robbers over the years to them, so they are so active.

The last Sir Yasuo said, "Don't worry, Sir William, we'll help you destroy those damned bandits!" We have more than 100 people this time, and there are more than 20 armed infantry with you, and more than 40 light infantry from your village, adding up to more than 200 people, we can crush them!" ”

"Yes, yes!" The other knights chimed in, and they brought with them a few light infantry, that is, conscripted serfs.

A group of knights did not take those robbers into account, as long as the knights did not encounter large-scale armed infantry, or hoplites, there were few casualties, most of the casualties were generated in the charge with the enemy knights, as long as they did not encounter a lot of light infantry, they were basically not in danger, and the chain mail on their bodies could cope with most of the damage, after all, it was difficult for the dung fork wood knife to cause any damage to the chain mail.

Because these knights could completely crush the enemy, the knights didn't bring too many people, no one brought a few light infantry, counting the armed infantry that William borrowed from the baron, there were only more than a hundred people in total
