Volume 1 Outpost County Chapter 14 Know Me... Who is Daddy?
Huron glanced at the noisy outpost subjects outside the door, looked at Thackeray with a smile and said, "What should be done with civilians besieging the head of the Holy See with weapons in hand?" β
Thackeray was silent.
Hiront strolled up to Thackeray and repeated again: "What should be done with civilians armed and daring to besiege the head of the Holy See?" β
Thackeray whispered with a difficult expression: "Show hostility, cut off one hand, attack with a weapon, hang." β
"Papapa" applauded, and Huron nodded in appreciation: "It seems that my chief of staff is very proficient in the laws of the Holy See. β
"What about you?" Huron walked up to Yorkshire again and said with a blank face: "Clerk of the Locke Kingdom, did you hear what my chief of staff said?" β
Yorkshire frowned and looked at Huron without answering.
Hyronte squinted his eyes and looked gloomy, and whispered again, "You didn't hear what I just said? β
Yorkshire felt palpitations for no apparent reason, looking at Huronte's gloomy face, especially the emotionless eyes, staring at him with a numb scalp.
"Locke, Locke's kingdom has no relevant lawsγγγγγ" Yorkshire replied in a hoarse voice, "Moreover, these civilians did not enter the General Administration Hall to pose a threat to you. β
"Hmmm! You're right. Huron nodded, and suddenly his face was hideous, and he said word by word: "But, they, they, hit, disturb, I, noon, sleep!" β
After saying that, Hironte turned around and walked back to the General Chamber, and as he passed by Yasuo, he yawned and said, "You're my herald, aren't you?" One person and one arm, by the way, remember to be knocked out before the execution, don't make noise with me. β
After saying that, he stretched his waist and entered the General Political Hall, as if he had just given a very ordinary order.
Yorkshire looked disdainful, he didn't believe that a few miscellaneous fish in front of him could make the civilians outside the gate shackled.
As the clerk of the county, he knew better than anyone else about the commoners here, no, he should call them the people of Diao and the people.
The outpost is a fierce citizen, and a seemingly helpless young woman may be the top killer of the Assassin Guild.
A butcher man who sells meat from Saro is likely to be the elite of the Mabian Army who kills people with blood on his hands.
Of course, this is just his fantasy, in fact, he has no real evidence, just hearsay.
There are many legends about the outpost county, and one of the most talked about is that a few years ago, a team of no less than 100 wasteland bandits bypassed the border army and ran to the outpost county to fight the autumn wind.
The Outpost had no defenses at all except for the sheriff, and the Knights of the Apologists of the diocese happened to escort Wood to the Southwest Archdiocese.
The bandits of the wasteland who sneaked in at night, the ghost knows what they have been through.
At dawn the next day, the bodies of nearly 100 robbers were neatly placed outside the General Political Hall, all the valuable things on their bodies were gone, and they were naked, and there was no underwear left.
It is said that the next day, many of the people who were in arrears with their diocesan taxes lined up early in the morning to make up the previous taxes.
There are more than just rumors about this incident, and there are several vague records in the county records.
After Yorkshire took office, the lazy people suggested more than once that all the county's defenses should be removed, and that the town's gates should be torn down.
In Yorkshire's heart, he didn't want the civilians in his county to be murderous butchers, but from the eyes and behavior of these people, he slowly understood that he was too optimistic.
He could tell the difference between a look of disregard for life and the eyes of other ordinary civilians.
At this time, outside the door of the General Political Hall, the eyes of those civilians showed the eyes he was expecting.
The kind of eyes that only have been tested by blood and fire for a long time, and ignore life.
So Yorkshire was a little disdainful, he didn't believe that these people were tied up.
But in the next second, there was a slight tremor on the ground, which made him completely panicked.
After a few breaths, countless heavily armed knights arrived from all directions, gathered into a cavalry phalanx, and accelerated all the way to a distance of less than 100 meters outside the city hall, surrounding all the civilians.
The knights who went on a rampage all the way did not bypass the innocent civilians along the way, and many of them could not dodge and were hit head-on by the high-headed giant horse, and flew out upside down and wailed.
A whole hundred knights, except for the neighing of the war horses, none of them made a sound, and their movements were uniform, quiet and terrifying.
The leading knight jumped off his horse and brutally pushed away the civilians who stood in his way.
"I'm the Legion Captain Guard Andrew, where is Lord Huront?"
Yasuo glanced at Thackeray, who was gloomy, and hurried over to relay Huronte's order.
Andrew sneered, disdainfully inspected the surrounding outpost county commoners, stepped on the war horse again, and after making a gesture, the cavalry behind him expanded the encirclement again, and drew the knight's sword one after another.
When Yorkshire saw this, he couldn't bear it any longer, and was about to run out of the gate, but Thackeray's strong arms reached out, lifted him up like a chick, and threw him unceremoniously to the ground.
The knight behind him pressed the tip of his sword against the desperate Yorkshire eyebrows.
Thackeray sighed helplessly, his frown tightly furrowed to show that his heart was very entangled, and after a while, he shouted to the General Administration Hall with a resolute face: "Your Excellency Honorable Legion Commander, the Outpost County is under the jurisdiction of the Locke Kingdom, our duty is to exterminate the infidels, and we should not raise butcher knives against civilians, please take back the order." β
Yorkshire looked expectantly into the room.
There was no sound coming from the General Political Hall, Thackeray snorted lightly, and just as he was about to enter, a black-robed man walked out, gestured with his thin fingers to make a silent gesture, and said softly: "Your Excellency the Legion Commander is resting, Chief of Staff, why wait a while in advance." β
After speaking, the man in black silently recited a spell, and after a few breaths, a film of light emitting a blue halo covered the huge General Administration Hall.
The man in black smiled and said indifferently: "It's just a small skill of carving insects, Your Excellency the Legion Commander is afraid that it will be too noisy." β
Thackeray's face changed drastically and he said, "The Holy See enshrines a mage, a water magician? β
The man in black nodded and said, "My name is Hales, and I, like you, am from the Duchy of Lotre. β
"Hales?" Thackeray's face was gloomy as if it were dripping water, and his eyes were red.
When the retinue knights behind him heard the name, they all escorted Thackeray to his side and looked at Hales warily.
"Is it true that the Holy See is an evil magician who has no class and no calculation to kill, and can also be inspired by the holy name of the Most High God?" Thackeray sneered and said, "After returning from the wasteland, I will definitely kill you and avenge those innocent villagers." β
Hales shook his head fearlessly, pointed to the outside of the gate and said, "Chief of Staff, you still have to worry about the matter in front of you, the hard-won and pitiful friendship between the Locke Kingdom and the Duchy of Lotel may turn into vengeful anger in the future." β
Thackeray's undulating chest expressed monstrous anger, and after glaring at Hales fiercely, he turned his head and noticed that the hundred knights, led by Andrew, had begun to ride their horses back.
"My lord, they're pulling away." A knight said in his ear.
"I know! I'll still use you to say it. Thackeray kicked him in annoyance, anxious, and involuntarily glanced at Yorkshire, who was also anxious.
Thackeray understood that in fact, these commoners were innocent, perhaps Huronte's original intention was to provoke a conflict between the Locke Kingdom and the Holy See, and there were fewer and fewer infidels on the continent, and Huron had suggested to the Pope more than once that the butcher's knife should be waved at those who did not believe in the supreme god.
And the Rock Kingdom, although it is a vassal state of the Holy See, there are still not a few people who do not believe in the supreme god, and the Rock Kingdom is getting stronger and stronger, and the accusations of the Holy See many years ago have turned a deaf ear.
Maybe all this is just a conspiracy of Huronte, and it is more likely that the other party gave him a warning.
He and Huron are also from the Duchy of Lotle, but one is a top nobleman, and the other is an orphan whose identity is lost and no one pays attention to him.
Huronte's experience is amazing, after joining the Kingdom Guard, he was expelled from the army for repeatedly abusing and killing opponents, and he didn't know how to run to the crusading army of the Holy See, and he was born like a dark horse, and became the captain of the legion in less than ten years.
There are only three heretic crusades in the Holy See, and Hurent is the youngest legion, and he is also a skilled warrior with a strong fighting spirit, with a wurm beast earth dragon under his crotch, and is called the most dazzling new star and the most devout servant by the Holy See.
Feng Shui takes turns, and Thackeray, a young man from the same country, is now a top nobleman in the principality, but has become a subordinate of Huronte.
Thackeray, who had a haughty temperament, had just joined the Holy See and became the chief of staff of the Legion in one step, and Huron had already embarrassed him more than once.
For some reason, Thackeray suddenly remembered the titular lord of the outpost.
If the Scrap Lord was here, what would he do with something like this?
Hehe, I may have been scared by Hiront to pee my pants a long time ago.
But so what, just now he boasted about helping these civilians get justice, but in the blink of an eye, the conflict began to escalate.
His appearance has worsened the situation.
Thackeray remembered the chivalry instilled in his uncle and father as a child, remembered his unwavering faith, and remembered a lot...
Glancing at Yorkshire with his fists clenched, he drew his sword and slowly walked towards the group of cavalrymen.
Several doglegs looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and followed.
Seeing Thackeray raise his saber alal, a roar caught everyone's attention.
"I rely on you. Mom, dare to besiege my little brother Yorkshire, you blind-eyed fools.b are tired, aren't you? β
An angry roar came from afar, like a hooligan in the market, showing how angry the person who shouted was in his heart, and... Self-immeasurable and uneducated.
Alan was carrying an incomparably thick mace, followed by Dina, who was carrying a siege crossbow on her shoulder.
The old butler Lacey was on crutches, and followed not far away step by step, sighing incessantly as he walked.
Alan raised his mace and scolded Andrew in the face, ". Where did so many stupid people come from.b outsiders dare to go wild on the uncle's territory, who is your father? Are you so arrogant? β
Andrew laughed angrily and asked with a sinister smile, "Who are you?" β
"You don't need to know who I am." Alan snorted coldly, acting like the eldest and my second, and shouted arrogantly: "You just need to know who my father is." β
Thackeray patted his head in pain, and the glimmer of admiration that had just risen turned into nothing.
The old butler behind him hurriedly stopped and stayed away from Allen.
Only Dina was left with joy, and shouted excitedly with a look of honor: "Tell you to scare you, Lord Grand Duke of the Kingdom, it is his father." β
Andrew's face was disdainful, and the knight behind him burst into laughter.
"Isn't my dad good?" Alan looked embarrassed and whispered to the old butler behind him.
Old Lacey "γγγγγγ β
