Chapter 878: Rectification and Co-optation

When Abshek told Kidd the news of the end of the Wanderer Warband, the priest vividly explained what it meant to be mournful, and the flesh on his fat face trembled.

Locked in solitary confinement as an officer, Charles didn't know what he was going to face, but the oppressed feeling made him unusually nervous.

The cell had been used many times recently, and many people had been imprisoned, all of whom wanted to leave a mark before they died, and the end result was that the cell was littered with finger scratches, and even bite marks from teeth on the iron bars, and Charles simply didn't know where to focus his attention.

Charles, as the backbone of the Wanderer Warband, is no longer a petty mercenary, they are a large warband, and the tasks they accept on weekdays are basically to fight proxy wars, which can be called well-informed.

He used to see when the Grand Master dealt with the nobles, both sides were gentle, and if he was lucky, he could sleep in the mansion with two noble ladies or something, why was there such a big gap between himself and his turn?

Charles thought a little aggrieved that his ultra-low discount hadn't been offered yet, but the wound in his mouth told him that these Seris might not be as 'reasonable' as the gentlemen of the Old World.

"Charles Epton?" The Assassin Fan Li interrogated five mercenaries with great efficiency in three hours, from the minions and sailors at the bottom, to the few remaining captains of the Wanderer Warband, and the captain of the fleet, basically grasping the whole incident and the current situation of the Wanderer Warband.

The mercenary leader named Charles Epton in front of him has a high reputation within the Wanderer Warband, and his reputation in the industry is also good, he can be called a model of mercenaries.

"That's right, it's me!" Charles replied clearly, it was a miracle for a man who had had several teeth knocked out and had a swollen face like a pig's head.

"You were sentenced to war crimes for attempting to launch a war of aggression against the Song Empire's strategic cooperative city, namely Godreim City, which is punishable by up to death penalty, life imprisonment, castration, and other punishments." The assassin Fan Li announced a large list of crimes with a blank face, and he was very familiar with this process as a police officer, of course, in reality, he could not arbitrarily sentence according to his preferences.

"Huh?" Charles's eyes widened, obviously he could understand each of them, why couldn't he understand them when they were put together?

What are war crimes? Is there such a charge?

"There are two paths in front of you, either you will be judged by the people, or you will ......" Before the Assassin Fan Li could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Charles.

"Let's just open the conditions, anyway, we have already laid down our weapons, as long as the price is right, I am more than happy to accept the mission from you on behalf of the Wanderer Warband." Charles accidentally pulled the wound: "As an apology, we can serve you for free for a month, and then you can set a suitable employment price based on our performance, believe me, we are worth the money!" ”

The assassin Fan Li looked at the mercenary leader in front of him with suspicious eyes, he did have plans to recruit the other party, after understanding that these people are really good soldiers, although it is for money, but the mercenary war group that can be big in the old continent basically has its own professional ethics.

"More than thirty of your ships were routed by one of our warships, and now only a third of your men are locked up in our prison." The Assassin Fan Li said in a critical tone, "I doubt that you are worth being hired. ”

"It's on the sea, we are warriors walking on land, I don't believe you can try!" Charles is actively fighting for his own survival, in his opinion, this is a completely negotiable deal, who doesn't want to get the support of a mercenary group with good combat effectiveness in times of war?

Then Charles begged for mercy and was rounded up in all directions by the Marines of the Loess District on a sunny afternoon.

Both sides sent two hundred men each, and from hand-to-hand combat to line speed to musket loading competition, the mercenaries of the Wanderer Warband were beaten like frost-beaten eggplants.

And Xu Yichen also basically understood the level of the well-known mercenary group in the Old Continent, and was mentally prepared for the upcoming battle.

According to Charles, their deceased Grand Master had acquired a large number of new weapons from a mysterious force, including muskets, cannons, and one-piece metal cuirasses.

However, the following leaders basically know that this mysterious force is the Church of Workin, and their Grand Master can't wait to write this backer on his face every day so that the whole world can know about it.

Xu Yichen took a general look at the muskets equipped by the Wanderer Warband, the workmanship is indeed very good, but in terms of technology, it is not much higher than the pirates' own production, obviously the work of the People's Anti-Intelligence Committee is in place, basically completely restricting the flow of new technology from the source.

All players who try to do this will be punished in reality, and anyone who reports can get a reward for magic equipment in the game, and for a while, the whole Old World was in full swing, and players even lit fires and barbecues in the wild, fearing that they were being reported for conducting scientific experiments.

The Wanderer Warband was scattered into the Goldrim City Guard, mixed with the locals, with each squad consisting of Marines as junior officers and one or two Orcs as Overseers.

They were still prisoners for the time being, and Xu Yichen finally gave Charles and all the members of the Wanderer Warband an offer that they couldn't refuse, either as the city guard of Godreim City, and get the heads of two enemies in a future war to be free, or they would be hung on a wooden shelf in the harbor to blow the wind.

The mercenaries undoubtedly chose the former, they didn't dare to look at the fierce demon hunter, the other party was like the legendary god of fear, every word and deed made people fearful.

In this process, Xu Yichen did not relax his supervision of Godrim City, and his approach made Elizabeth seem to open a door to a new world.

The grain is directly priced by the government, and any merchants who maliciously hoard and do not cooperate with the market price will be rushed into the door by the city guards, and the case is not directly hung on the nearest street lamp.

On the other hand, Viscount Gastrov came forward to gather a large number of well-known civilian small traders, and under the guidance of the Seris, he established a trading institution called a supermarket, which quickly met the consumption needs of the people in the city.

In the space of a week, the whole city of Godrim was completely renewed.
