"Actually, you can't represent anyone!"

Bang dang!

The door was pushed open, and Wu Ming strode in. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Your Excellency!"

Amelia was so excited that she almost cried with joy: "You're finally back!?" ”

"You're William? William Wallace! ”

Cisse looked at the young Wu Ming, and the jealousy in his eyes could barely be concealed: "I am the messenger of the Earl of Blue Mountain, you must give me an explanation for today's matter!" ”

"Explain? What's the explanation? ”

Wu Ming shook his head: "I only saw a robber who lived in my house and was warmly entertained by me, but maliciously plotted to rob my family's property!" ”

"Amelia, tell Jof to hang all those who don't follow the rules!"

He sneered and shouted directly.

"You...... How dare you? ”

Lord Cisse's face turned red like a ripe prawn: "Do you want to rebel?" ”

"I'm the lord of this place, and in my fiefdom, I can do whatever I want!"

Wu Ming responded calmly, and immediately, he took two steps forward, and his flat momentum made Xisai's legs weak, and he sat down directly on the chair.

And ...... Don't take yourself too seriously, compared to me, who has tens of thousands of people and thousands of troops, what are you in the eyes of the Earl of Blue Mountain? ”

He said in a very low voice in Lord Cissé's ear.

It was as if he had fallen into an abyss.

At this time, he suddenly realized that the power represented by the Karos Territory had unconsciously grown into the top force of the Wind Firefly Plain, especially when the lion and the tiger were about to decide the victory.

In order to win over this new rising power, what is he a lord? Presumably, as long as Wu Ming continued to be loyal, even the Earl of Blue Mountain would be happy to hand him over to Wu Ming for disposal.

The biggest reliance was dismantled, and he immediately fell down softly as if the bones of his body had been sucked away.

"Take him back to his room, Lord is sick and needs a good rest!"

Wu Ming waved his hand, and two guards came in, and immediately put the clown-like Lord Cisse out.

"And ...... Let the bathroom boil the hot water, and prepare a hearty breakfast, I'm going to eat it all! ”

It was only then that a hint of exhaustion appeared on his face.

The attentive Amelia immediately noticed the traces of Sir William's dusty body, and hurriedly bowed: "Yes...... I'm going to send someone to prepare! ”

……

The mist rises, and the white marble statue stands quietly, with a soft line and a hint of warmth.

Wu Ming leaned comfortably on the edge of the pool, and Amelia next to him rolled up her sleeves, revealing two white jade-like arms, holding a towel, and did not shy away from serving him at all.

"Your breakfast, my lord!"

The cooks prepared delicate pastries and milk, served them in wooden trays, and floated on the surface of the water, like flowing water.

"Time is of the essence! Amilia, tell me everything in the territory! ”

Wu Ming grabbed the milk bottle with one hand and stuffed the white bread into his mouth with the other, but his voice was quite clear.

"Yes! The situation in the territory is all right, but for the first time because of the war, our goods have piled up, and there are ...... A large number of freedmen, as well as serfs, fled to our territory for fear of the war......"

Amelia took a deep breath and quickly reported.

"War! The second lion and tiger battle! ”

Wu Ming sighed deeply: "What is the cause of the incident?" ”

"According to the conscription order issued by Lord Earl, it is because Lord Viscount Garcia moved the boundary monument and encroached on the sacred territory that originally belonged to him......"

Amelia said, "But we all know the reason, and the Earl has been unable to bear it anymore after several years of recovery. ”

"At present, both sides are gathering their noble private soldiers, knights, mercenary groups, and adventurers...... Chen soldiers were on Wharton Plains, and the number of people participating in the battle exceeded 10,000. ”

"Exactly?"

Wu Ming's eyes closed slightly, and he asked slowly.

"Six thousand Earls of the Blue Mountains, Viscount Garcia...... Four thousand, this is the latest intelligence! ”

"Our Earl, I'm still too anxious......"

Wu Ming suddenly opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a flash of essence in them: "Has he forgotten the lesson of the last time when he was defeated by Viscount Garcia with a more superior force?" If he fails again this time, even if Viscount Garcia is willing to accept peace, the ransom will inevitably be more than doubled. ”

"Therefore, the Lord Count made the most severe appeal to his vassals loyal to him, claiming that those who obey him will be glorified, and those who disobey him will be stripped of everything after the war."

"Judging by the Lord Cissé he sent, I'm really not optimistic about his actions!"

Wu Ming shook his head, immediately got up, wiped the water droplets on his body, and put on a white and soft bathrobe: "But within our territory, we are going to start mobilizing." ”

"Mobilization?"

"Not bad, full mobilization order!"

Wu Ming's expression was resolute, while Amelia was slightly distracted.

As a knight leader, Wu Ming has five hundred standing soldiers under his command, which is far more than several times that of other knights, and even more than the baron.

But Amelia knew that this was far from the whole story.

The workers who sweated in the mines, the factories, and the water forging workshops were all adult men who had been trained in the militia, and who had strong organization and discipline, and after the mobilization order was issued, they would not be inferior to the regular armies of the other nobles as long as they were gathered and trained a little, and the number was even more terrifying.

After all, it is impossible to feed so many agricultural people with the arable land under the Karos domain, most of them are industrial, and they can come up with thousands at will!

'This is the gap, although I am not even semi-industrialized here, but in terms of war potential, mobilization mechanism, I still have to throw out those primitive agricultural aristocrats I don't know how many streets......

Wu Ming sighed lightly in his heart and came to the meeting hall.

Here, Jof, along with his tax collector, factory manager, mine slave owner...... A group of henchmen had gathered together, and when they watched Sir William approach, they all saluted respectfully, as if they had found the backbone of the Lord at once.

"I will not stay in the territory for long, according to my obligation, I will lead four hundred men to the Wharton Plains to fulfill the obligation of allegiance to my feudal lord......"

Wu Ming looked around and took the lead in speaking: "At the same time, I ask you to start organizing all my workers and slaves, and start organizing and training, and all the plate armor and swords produced in the water forging factory are used to arm them. ”

"Dear Lord Sir......"

Another fat man had to wipe his sweat hard: "I have to remind you that although in this way, you can get thousands of troops, but we may face a shortage of food and cloth in stockpiles. ”

"Didn't you already order you to stock up as much as you could?"

Wu Ming frowned.

"But...... A small amount of grain is fine, but once the transaction volume is too large, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of other noble lords......"

There was more sweat on the fat man's face.

Wu Ming rubbed his eyebrows, in ancient times, grain was a strategic material above everything, even in the Fengying Plain.

Especially in a deformed territory like his, the dependence on the outside world is too serious, once the war continues, it cannot continue to trade, and a large amount of food and other necessary materials are purchased from the outside world, and the collapse of the entire system is an instant thing.

That's why he simply ordered a stoppage to prepare for war, and if he didn't, it wouldn't be long before those workers would find themselves with nothing to do.

Rather than make trouble again when the time comes, it is better to start arming them now and suppress them with discipline.

"The food problem, I will solve it through other channels, you don't have to worry!"

Wu Ming groaned, but still reassured.

The benefits of working with the church are here.

As a huge force that had been rooted here for a long time, he did not believe that these priests could not even find a few channels to smuggle food.

Taking a step back, the entire church doesn't know how much war supplies are stored.

It's just that cooperation with the other party is still in the secret stage at this time, and unless you have already gained an advantage, it is harmful to say it openly.

……

After Wu Ming, the lord, made up his mind, the entire Karos Territory immediately began to operate like a sophisticated machine.

Factories shut down, and slaves and workers were called to participate in organized training to pick up the skills they were already familiar with.

A large number of warehouses were opened, and the spears, javelins, swords, and a piece of plate armor were armed to them like flowing water.

Unlike serfs, most of the workers were more intelligent, ingenious, and some could even read a few simple words, and they were a little more shrewd to see the world with their eyes.

They knew that when war broke out, orders for factories and workshops were drastically reduced, except for weapons, and if this continued, soon they would lose their jobs.

Losing their jobs means no pay, no butter and bread for the next day, and their families will go hungry and live on the streets.

In order to defend the life they could have lived, they had to take up the sword, defend the territory, defend the previous circulation of goods, and in short, stop this damn war! And get everything back on track!

What's more, at this time, when participating in the whole training, their treatment is still comparable to that of the militia, and they still have a salary, at least the most basic life of their families is guaranteed.

As for what their future holds, what does it matter if they will go to war with that lord?

After all, they weren't serfs loyal to their lord!

Most of them are freedmen, runaway slaves, and even wildlings from the wasteland! There is a free blood flowing in the veins of the body!
