''Chapter 61: The Ruler of Babra''
I chatted with the old clerk for a while, and asked a lot about the current situation of the townspeople and the town, and after the old man had calmed down, he thanked us many times and told me in detail about the situation in the town of Babula. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info During this time, the robbers treated them very cruelly, Babula Town originally had a large amount of food reserves (thanks to the Alliance, they could only reserve their own strength), but the robbers were unwilling to give them even the worst food, and they were given some livestock to eat, but even this little bit had to be limited! Although Ron ruled the town in a half-threatening and half-persuasive manner, it was clear that he could not control the new entrants, who were unbridled and predatory in the town, ravaging the women of the town and whipping the bodies of the children in an unbearable manner. However, due to the robbers' close surveillance and the severely inadequate food supply, there was no one who had the strength to resist.
In addition to the bandits' misdeeds, the townsfolk are also full of resentment towards the Free Cities Alliance. Before the bandits invaded, the town of Babra was already in a semi-independent state, and even after the bandits came, they maintained a mutual attitude of ignoring each other with the Union government, and the Union government did not care about what would happen to the town of Babra that did not obey them, resulting in Babra fighting alone, being attacked by bandits, and the townspeople were humiliated.
The old clerk also told me that there were ten villages of various sizes around the town of Babra, which were built by the mountain people who had fled from the north, and that the League had never looked at them squarely, so that despite their different locations, some of which did not border Babra, they were regarded by the Union as part of Babra, and they also stood with the town of Babra, as if it were a self-protecting alliance, but the alliance was fragile. In the past, various villages and the town of Babura formed a military alliance, and everyone helped in trouble. However, Ron played a hand, multiple squads of bandits attacked many villages, and the mercenary troops in Babura Town were busy, constantly dividing their troops, and mobilizing a large number of mercenaries in the town, but because of the arrears of commissions, there were conflicts between the two sides, resulting in many mercenaries not contributing, and the town could only send more guards out. Ron hid it well, not letting the people of Babra Town find out about their large army, and then hacked them once and launched a surprise attack. When the soldiers approached the city, most of the mercenaries ran away en masse, because Ron secretly sent them a message, and it would not be difficult for them to leave. There were less than two hundred armed people in the town at that time, and there were only more than a hundred mercenaries, no support, not enough hole cards, in the face of so many robbers, the mercenaries left directly, and it didn't take long for Babura to be lost. Of course, the troops sent out also rushed back, as a town that can hold on to various attacks, Babra still has a lot of troops and mercenaries, once there is any enemy in Babra Town, the guards and people of each village will gather over, and then nearly a thousand troops armed to defend the town with a large amount of food, so most of the robbers will not provoke Babra Town casually, because it can't be defeated, and it is of little significance.
Even so, Ron sees the weakness of the town of Babula - the villages are becoming more and more independent. Although the relationship between the village and the town of Babula has not changed, they have begun to defend their village instead of evacuating (because the village is already well built and cannot be abandoned casually), which makes the village continue to rescue them, giving Ron the opportunity to take Babula town. The guards sent out returned, but they were scattered and could not defeat the robbers who had walls to defend, and their wives and children were also in the hands of others, so these villages could only pay tribute to the robbers and submit to the robbers' coercion.
And now that the Ron Bandits are finished, and the remnants of the escape are no longer a threat to us, what to do with the whole of Babra is a question that the old clerk has hinted at me. I could tell him was hinting at a message to me, "You should take the whole town of Babura and take them into your own hands." ”
"Why believe me?" I was puzzled, this was simply selling my town, so I asked him directly.
"Because you have a lot of strength, you can protect this area, and you ......," he smiled wryly, "and we can't support the town's defenses anymore, and your performance proves that you are a much better ruler than the bandits." ”
"Ruler?" I said to myself, and I felt a little ironic, in so many worlds, how many people have earned their lives for this name, only to turn to dust in the end. Although it's just a small town, have I finally joined this "camp"? Ironic, funny, but desirable.
"I'm going to make your life like before, no, better than before." I promise this old man.
"I hope you can talk and count, we have nothing to rely on. But I assure you, as long as you rule with good intentions, the town of Nababula will not let you down. ”
"Thank you." I thanked and yawned, "Go tell the townsfolk to go home, clean up and rest, they've been tired for too long, it's time to relax." My troops don't go back and interfere with them, right? Is there any place to accommodate our people? ”
Hearing my words, the old clerk breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a smile on his face: "The hall in the town is empty, and it is very comfortable, you can live there." There are some empty houses in the town, and now that their owners are basically gone, it is okay for your troops to live there. ”
Although the old clerk said this, in line with the principle of not taking a penny from the masses, we finally found an open space to camp (in fact, because there were not enough houses in the town to live), but I still lived in the town hall, after all, I couldn't live in vain.
Originally, I was going to say something to the residents, but they are not in a good state, and they are still afraid of us, so we need time to get to know each other.
―――――――――― three-day dividing line
【Ding! System prompt: Host No. 4 Li Guangyu understands the system and has successfully upgraded to level 3.
During these three days, the town of Babra was replaced by a new "garrison", and the townspeople lived back in their original houses and ate the food they had eaten, but they were still cautious, for fear that these strange men would kill them with a sword. However, when the disciplined and well-trained warriors began to take over the work of the guards, they not only did not do anything wrong to them, but also helped them in their work. Their prefect told them that they were from Biebertown, that they had defeated the bandit army in Bikini, and that they were now coming to their aid. The name "Bieber's Mighty Army" is known to the town of Babra, and the bandits were defeated by them to come to Babra, but the townspeople do not resent them, but admire their strength. Now that the rumors have become a reality in front of them, they also feel that they are powerful. During the three days of contact, they gradually eliminated the fear and hostility in their hearts and began to interact normally.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and we were busy repairing the fence, sorting out the mess of food in the granary, recovering the lost belongings, and helping the residents to restore their old lives. It took a lot more time than I thought, and even Li Guangyu's guy was upgraded! As soon as this product is upgraded, the first sentence is, "But TM is upgraded, what are you doing?" After that, he had a with Wang Shengzhe, and before I could speak, this guy seemed to have disappeared after being short of funds, only knowing that he was now doing a "big deal" in Hedman, and he didn't ask anything about it. Even Fang Zi sent me a message saying that she was about to build a city, but we weren't done here. There were a lot more tasks than I had imagined, and the remnants of the bandits were harassing other villages, and we had to clear them one by one, and then pull that village out of our camp. After careful consideration, I also released Ron and his lieutenant Bauer to appease the other robbers, and although the few insiders here were not very happy about it, they did solve a lot of problems for us, but I was reassured that he was obviously impossible. It took a few days, but we also achieved good results, and all ten villages in Babra more or less recognized our management of Babra, and the townspeople gradually accepted our presence.
"Your Excellency, you're not kidding, are you?" The old clerk looked at me with his mouth wide open.
"That's right," I nodded, telling him with certainty, "from now on, you're the mayor of Babra." ”
"But, sir, I'm just a clerk......"
"It's okay, you've been a clerk next to the mayor for so many years, and you have a lot of experience, you can do this job. Besides, there are few people in the town who can read and take care of things. "Speaking of which, I am also very helpless, the entire management of Babula Town is dead, and I have no suitable candidate, so I have to give this position to this little old man who seems to be very experienced and very cooperative with us.
"Thank you, sir, I won't disappoint you." The little old man Alblin saluted excitedly, like I promised.
"You're worthy of the townsfolk of Babra, and I hope you're worthy of them." As much as I say so, I know that such a mayor can help us win over the hearts and minds of the people of Babra and will kill two birds with one stone.
"Alright, Mr. Mayor, we're going to execute those robbers in a moment, and by the way, we can't be late to announce your appointment as mayor." I got up from my seat, and Alblin immediately walked out after me.
…………
In the small square in the center of the town, the evil robbers were put on the gallows.
"You have bullied our people and plundered our assets, and you will pay the price for your evil deeds. Whatever your origins and how much suffering you have endured, when you embark on this path, you should think of today. May there be a place for you in Hell, repent! Whatever you have in mind. Philip finished reading this confession in very direct words, and then slowly raised his hand: "Execution!" ”
The pedals under the gallows opened, and the robbers struggled desperately in mid-air, and I wanted to close my eyes, but I watched anyway. I told myself, "You can't accept this today, and you won't get mercy when someone else sends you up." ”
When the execution was over, my heart was still beating, and the whole audience was cheering because those guys had hurt so many people.
"Let's pay tribute to the new manager of Babra Town, Lord Lee." The new Mayor Alberlin, dressed in new clothes, stood in the middle of the room and shouted to me, "Thank you to the Saviors for saving us, they are far merciful and great than the Council of the Union!" ”
"I wish you good health forever, my lord."
The whole audience was shouting my name and saluting me, and I knew that the town of Babura was ours.
