Chapter 188: Aftermath (Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a subscription)
In the subsequent report, the atmosphere of the whole tent was even more oppressive than at the beginning. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info In the ears of the officers in the tent, the wails of the wounded soldiers outside seemed to be even more poignant.
And the Count of Marshall's heart was full of bitterness. In the report just now, the light infantry lost more than 300 people, and the crossbowmen lost more than 200, which is actually within the acceptable range, but from the overall point of view, the losses of the legion this time greatly exceeded expectations. The original legion of more than 3,500 people has now lost more than half, which also means that it is impossible for his legion to reinforce the Eastern Front, so he can only return to Silvermoon City to slowly lick his wounds.
As for when they will recover, the Earl of Marshall is not sure, after all, the Eastern Front is still fighting, and the kingdom has no time or energy to care about them now. I don't know how long I'll have to wait to recover.
And the losses of those city guards are not much, about 600 people, there is no way, their quality can be lost so little, thank God. And the councillors of Locketown, after the war, desperately wanted the Earl of Marshall to admit their casualties and report them together.
However, the Earl of Marshall ignored them at all, these people joined the battlefield without authorization, which was enough to annoy the Earl of Marshall, and they also caused trouble. It was already a mercy for the Earl of Marshall to deal with them without military law, and the Earl of Marshall knew too well what those people wanted to do.
Isn't it just that they want the militia they brought to be on the casualty list? In this way, the militia who died in battle could receive the kingdom's pension. But do you think that's what those councillors are for? Don't think of them so well, will they care about the pension of the militia? That's weird!
These militiamen died in battle, and if the kingdom did not pay for it, then it would only be for Locke Town, and they wanted to throw the burden on the kingdom because they simply wanted to come up with the money. Once on the list of casualties of the Earl of Marshall, it was the responsibility of the kingdom. And that's not the point, since they are on the casualty list, then whether their unit should be reported.
Since the unit has reported, should the commander of the unit report it? That's certain, so that the names of those parliamentarians can be reported in a grand manner, and if the war is won, then they can more or less get some credit.
It's no wonder that Earl Marshall can agree to such a request, and he didn't ask these people to go to the battlefield, these people don't say anything about their own opinions, and they want to use this small means to reap benefits, which makes Count Marshall angry to death. They threw all the burden on the Earl of Marshall, and they only took the benefits themselves, and they didn't have to bear any responsibility, how could there be such a good thing in the world.
The Earl of Marshall solemnly warned those bastards that they would find their own way to compensate the militia, and if they couldn't do it, then the Earl of Marshall would accuse them of disrupting the battlefield, disrespecting military orders, and having ill intentions, and then wait for the reckoning of Silvermoon City!
After failing to achieve their goal and being threatened again, the parliamentarians were depressed and kicked out of the barracks. But there are even more terrible things waiting for them to return to Locketown, these guys sent troops without going through the city hall at all, even Earl Royce and Cruise didn't know that there was such a thing, and when the militia returned to Locke Town with heavy losses, they knew that these guys were so bold.
Count Royce was going crazy, he didn't know how to describe these stupid people, the most elite troops in Locke Town were handed over to Earl Marshall, and the rest were improvised militia that could only maintain law and order. These guys actually want to rely on this group of people to grab credit, and Count Royce doesn't know how to describe his mood.
So the furious Earl of Royce issued the most stern warning to the councillors, these militiamen who died in battle, all the pensions must be paid by these councillors, and the town hall will not pay a dime, if they dare not come out, then he will report to Silvermoon City, not only do they not have the military order of the Earl of Marshall, but they also do not even have the authorization of the town hall!
Privately deploying troops, with bad intentions, to put it more seriously, it can be said to be a rebellion. A group of legislators who sent troops were completely stupid, this was really a fish that they didn't eat, and they got fishy. So one by one, they looked at the initiator.
Xiao Baiyan looked at them with a confused face, this matter was really not his fault, he was just more positive, why did everyone look at him?
It's no wonder that these parliamentarians regard Little White Face as the initiator, in fact, he was also used as a gun. The guy who first thought of this idea, when he told Xiao Baiyan about this idea, he thought about it, let Xiao Baiface jump up and down, and when something really happened, let this stupid person stand up to the thunder, and Xiao Baimian didn't suspect that there was fraud in it, and he really went to Zhang Luo.
Now that things are messed up, it is natural to push this guy out to take the blame, and the most everyone can do is lose some money.
Xiao Baiyan is also from a wealthy family, and this thing will make him get out of the way at most, so as not to really kill him, and it is best to use him to take the blame. If it succeeds, then everyone has the benefits, how good.
I have to say that Little White Face is really a good target to use because he is stupid enough.
Not to mention, according to the usual performance of this stupid person, Earl Royce and the other councilors really believe that this kind of stupid thing, this guy really did it. So the whole town hall, which couldn't stand this stupid person anymore, reported directly to the above: Lord Morris, who is not in good health enough to serve as a councilor of Locke Town, suggests going home to recuperate.
This is a kind word said in the face of the Campbell family, which translates to mean that your child has a brain disease, so quickly take it back to treat his brain damage. As for who took advantage of the little white face, no one will pursue it, anyway, it's a stupid person, and if he uses it, he will use it, who will not be able to pursue it?
In the days that followed, the Earl of Marshall, on the one hand, reported the battle situation to Silvermoon City, and on the other hand, he reported the merits to everyone. The old man, Earl Marshall, is quite trustworthy, and really repaid the credit for Solam's team, and did not treat those people badly.
The 8 adventurers who participated in the mission all got their due rewards, among them, the former Dale, now Sauer, actually got a lord's noble title reward, although his title has no territory and cannot be hereditary, but no matter how it is said that he is also a nobleman.
And other adventurers, also received a lot of rewards, and were awarded the Medal of Honor, with this Medal of Honor, although it cannot be said that they have become a master, but in the future, if they want to apply for some government positions, it will become much simpler, such as the militia captain, will definitely give priority to hiring this kind of person, and the nobles will not dispose of these people at will, and the kingdom can only deal with them, which can be regarded as a bit of a guarantee for the future.
These adventurers are happy to death, and now they can all return to their hometowns happily, although they can't be masters, but it's okay to be a respected rich man.
As for the rewards of those priests who accompanied the team, I don't know, but Christie seems to have been transferred back to Silvermoon City, and there will be another bishop here in Locketown.
And the military members in the squad are a bit miserable, not that there are no rewards, but there are really not many people who survive. Of the original 9 members of the military, 5 were killed and 2 were seriously wounded, and only two were still active.
And Gaslan is one of them, this guy relies on Lisa to make a big deal on the battlefield, and he is also the guy with the highest reward in the squad, and now when he meets him, he is going to call him a lord, he is a lord, and he is not the empty Lord of Sauer. He was rewarded with a manor as a domain, just on the edge of Silvermoon City, and a shop located in the downtown area of Silvermoon City. At the same time, this title of lord can be hereditary, as are his domains and shops.
Now he can call himself a real nobleman, a nobleman with a hereditary domain, and now he is still young, as long as he continues to make meritorious contributions in the army, he will one day get a higher title.
And the other guy who survived was not bad, although he didn't get the title, but he was promoted, and now he is also a centurion, and if he is lucky in the future, he will become a nobleman just around the corner.
At the same time, there are many people in the army who have made meritorious contributions this time, but now it is wartime, and there is no time to make any big scenes on the side of Silver Moon City, and the rewards will be cashed directly when they return to Silver Moon City, and they will not engage in too much formalism. The people who made meritorious contributions were a little unhappy, and they finally made meritorious contributions, so they were rewarded so quietly, what is the matter?
However, they also know that the kingdom is in an emergency now, and it is impossible to work hard to get some bells and whistles, anyway, they can get what they deserve, so those guys are just complaining and complaining.
And Solam, there is nothing, it's not that Silvermoon City doesn't want to reward, it's true, Solam's identity is too much, the king of the cloud giants, how do you call those bigwigs of Silvermoon City? Therefore, I can only inform the Earl of Marshall, saying that I will welcome the alien king to Silvermoon City, and at the same time warn the Earl of Marshall, the trick of threatening others last time, should not appear again, and it is said that the princess and the queen are very angry about the last time.
This time, when Soram arrives in Silvermoon City, the Queen will personally meet the king and apologize to him. These words made the Earl of Marshall almost ashamed to death, and he actually asked the queen to apologize to the people in his bucket, which is really not what a courtier should do.
But he still has to bite the bill and continue to trouble his queen, and he still owes Soram a promise. Thinking about this thing makes the Earl of Marshall a little burned, he has to do everything to the queen, and he is a courtier who has failed too much.
However, Queen Hinbu is very angry, she said, Solam originally contributed to the Silver Moon King's country, and they have nothing to reciprocate here, since the Earl of Marshall has such a deal with him, the kingdom will not disagree, and watching the Book of Ten Thousand Laws for a week is a bit too stingy, the queen is in charge, and directly gives Solam a month, and she can look at it however she wants.
The Queen is confident, how much can she learn in a month given to Solam? He may not be able to finish learning in a year, anyway, he is not real, a week is too stingy, and it also allows others to see the atmosphere of the Silver Moon Kingdom.
