On the night of the five barbarians' escape, Count Miró's manor outside the city was attacked, and more than a dozen masters rushed up from nowhere to slash and kill.

Fortunately, Count Miró has recently taken up his post as a new official, and there are constant banquets at night, otherwise if he is kidnapped, it will become the biggest joke in the Barak Kingdom.

"Whoever dares to deceive the barbarians will bear the wrath of the barbarian gods!"

In the end, the words shouted by an assassin with at least level eight strength when he left immediately made everyone think about it. Deceive the barbarians?Did Count Miró make any promise to the barbarians?

It's kind of interesting.

The next day, Jeff and the Dragon Falcon army surrounded the City Lord's Mansion, and in the past few days, Count Miró had moved into the City Lord's Mansion, and Lannis had gone to another residence in the city.

Jeff met Count Miro in the living room of the City Lord's Mansion, looking at Count Miro, Jeff said unceremoniously: "Lord Duke was attacked by four barbarians in the city, we deceived them and made them believe that they were deceived, but the next day the news came out that you were attacked by barbarians, should Count Miro give the Duke an explanation for this matter!"

Count Miro was furious, and said angrily: "This is a shameless frame-up! It must be a conspiracy carried out against me by those barbarians!"

"Whether it is a conspiracy against the Earl or not, five barbarians and two demon wolves actually appeared in the city to ambush the Duke, the City Lord's Mansion and the garrison must give an explanation to the Duke's Palace, if you can't do it, the city defense of Atlanta City will be taken over by the Dragon Falcon Army. ”

Count Miro's face changed, and he said: "You are plotting rebellion! Atlanta City is the most important city in the kingdom, and no one's private army is allowed to control it. ”

The Count was serious. Jeff said lightly: "The task of the Dragon Falcon Army is to guard the safety of the Duke, and I hope the Earl will understand." ”

Count Miro slapped the table angrily, and said with a gloomy face: "The Dragon Falcon Army must not enter the city without permission, I can ignore today's affairs, but I don't want to have a next time!"

"Five days. Jeff stretched out his palm and said unceremoniously to Count Miro: "I give the Earl five days, if I can't give a satisfactory explanation to the Duke's Palace, I'm afraid Atlanta City will not be able to stay, and then don't blame the Duke for going to the royal capital to complain." ”

When Count Miro heard this, his face suddenly became gloomy, and after Jeff finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left, and the two sides parted unhappily.

When Jeff left, Count Miro asked the butler outside the city to come over, and the butler looked at the back of Count Miro standing there quietly, and suddenly sighed in his heart, this is the calm before the storm.

Count Miro turned his back to the butler and asked in a light tone, "Why did those barbarians find the manor?" ”

When the housekeeper heard this, he suddenly panicked and said, "I didn't expect that those barbarians would find the manor, and when I asked people to find them, our identities were not revealed at all. ”

Count Miro turned and glanced at him: "Are there many people who know about this?"

The housekeeper hurriedly said with a serious face: "I know the seriousness of this matter, I will dispose of him when the person who does the work comes back, and now no one except me knows. ”

"Well, that's good, let's go down. When the butler left the room, Count Miro said lightly: "Now, only one person knows." ”

......

In the Duke's Palace, when Jeff returned, he went to see Ari and Gal as soon as he returned.

When Gal saw Jeff, he hurriedly asked, "How is it, did that guy Miro admit it?"

Jeff hurriedly replied: "How can you admit this kind of thing, but judging from his performance, he can't escape this matter." ”

After saying that, Jeff turned his gaze to Eri, who was quietly drinking tea on the side, his eyes full of amazement.

The idea of leading an army to surround the City Lord's Mansion was the one that Ari came up with, and he was afraid that the matter would be too big and not good for Garr, after all, the people who attacked the manor outside Miro were sent by themselves......

With his understanding of Count Miro's temperament, it would be easy to grasp such a big handle, but Miro actually swallowed this breath in the end, which further confirmed his weakness.

"That's fine," Gal patted his chest and turned to look at Ari, also with a look of amazement, "How do you know that Milo guy did it, what if you guess wrong?"

Ari pouted and said, "If you guessed wrong, he's unlucky......"

......

Regardless of whether the matter was done by Count Miro or not, the festive atmosphere in the city suddenly changed, and the nobles who had been anxious to talk to Count Miro also eased up, and they only then thought that there was another big man in Atlanta that they could not afford to provoke.

There is an unwritten unspoken rule in the aristocratic class, you can use any means to treat the enemy, assassination, bribery and even collusion with the hostile forces of the kingdom There are many people, but this kind of thing must not be put on the surface, once it appears, it is a situation where everyone shouts and fights.

Ai noodles, but there are always traces to follow.

At that time, regardless of whether the barbarians were called by him or not, he will definitely not be able to escape from the crime of colluding with the enemies of the kingdom, and he will even affect his sister and nephew in the royal capital.

Count Miró thought of this, and a cold sweat flowed, if this incident affected the impression of his sister and nephew in Tolkien's heart, he was the sinner of the family.

Tolkien was furious when the king heard the news, and he strictly ordered Count Miro to give an explanation, otherwise at least one of the charges of being a vegetarian in the corpse position would not be able to escape, and the position of the city lord who had finally been obtained would naturally fly away.

"A scapegoat must be found!" muttered Count Miró.

Count Miró was ruthless, and the nobles in the city suffered, and in the border city, who had not done anything against the laws of the kingdom, and there were countless people who smuggled food and weapons.

Count Miró targeted a small nobleman, and suddenly countless people were imprisoned, and fornicating with foreign enemies was not a trivial matter.

While there was a wail in the city, the Duke's Palace was no different from usual, except that it was a little more heavily guarded.

"This usually looks like a human being, but it turns out that I can't help but check. Ari looked at the list sent by Count Miro, and suddenly said with a look on his face.

"Is that all?" said Gal as he looked at the list of minor nobles on the list, and said with some unwillingness.

"Of course not," Ari said with a smile as he put the paper on the table, looking at Garr, "but since your father asked Count Miro to investigate, he naturally didn't want to make a big deal out of it." ”

Gal was a little disappointed when he heard this, and Jeff, who was standing on the side, hurriedly said: "The king is also forced to do so, after all, this is a scandal of the royal family, and it is related to the image of the royal family, so it is natural to deal with it in a low-key manner." ”

"There is naturally a low-key way to deal with it," Ari said with a smile: "Since Atlanta City can't protect Gal, the expansion of the Dragon Falcon Army should also be a matter of course, just give a random thirty or fifty thousand staff, Jeff, you go and talk about this matter." ”

Jeff almost cried when he heard this, can thirty or fifty thousand private troops be given casually, more than the number of garrisons in Atlanta, once there is a rebellion, there is no way to suppress it without pulling the Northern Army over.

"Five thousand is at most, and if the king doesn't agree to it, the whole kingdom will talk about it. ”

Ari smacked his lips and said: "Then let's talk about it according to 10,000, and ask more cavalry establishment, we don't want him to give people horses and weapons, all of them are paid for by ourselves, and if it doesn't cost a penny, there will be an extra cavalry team in the country, and Tolkien will probably have to laugh when he dreams at night." ”

Garr imagined his father laughing while sleeping, and he couldn't help but laugh at first.

"I'll try my best. Jeff agreed with a bitter face, and Eri said this softly, he didn't know how long it would take to talk.

Who knew that this had not been solved yet, and Ari continued as he spoke: "And the taverns run by Count Miro in the city can't be operated, I think they are in a good location, and a gold coin can be transferred to open a low-end tavern chain." ”

"That's more than a dozen taverns, all of them are in prime locations, business is good, and I'm making money every day!" Jeff shuddered as he heard Eri's lion speak.

It's so ruthless!

These taverns are not as unbearable as Ari said, although the Silver Moon Tavern is high-end, but it is not suitable for everyone, and many mercenaries like to go to the Jungle Iron Tavern under Count Miro.

If all the taverns were really transferred, Count Miró's power in Atlanta City would be reduced by at least half. Everyone knows that the tavern is a mixed place, and it is absolutely useful to hide forces and inquire about intelligence, and if you lose the tavern, it is equivalent to breaking one of Count Miro's arms and deafing one of his ears.

Ari said nonchalantly: "The conditions are opened, and if he doesn't want to accept it, it's not that we don't give Tolkien face." A child who has been bullied occasionally loses his temper is understandable, you say. ”

"In this way, there is no room for turning around in the future. Jeff said with some concern.

Ari glanced at him and snorted coldly: "Do you think he has a future, although this matter has passed, it doesn't mean that he has nothing to do." On the side of the couch, he will not be allowed to sleep soundly, and sooner or later he will be driven back to the royal capital. ”

Jeff silently walked out of the room when he heard this, this young master's heart is too big, but he really has this ability, and he can't afford to provoke it.

As Ari said, when Jeff came to the door again, although Count Miro angrily said that the matter had nothing to do with him, after Jeff left, the Tavern in Atlanta City was delivered.

Tolkien's reply also came down, and Jeff read excitedly: "In view of the chaos on the border, Duke Ghal's guard Dragon Falcon Knights has been expanded by 2,000 people, and the ordinary soldiers of the Dragon Falcon Army have been expanded by 3,000 people. ”

"Two thousand knights, that's two and a half thousand?" said Ari, touching his chin.

"Slip of the tongue, expand to two thousand knights, and one in the middle is a word......" Jeff quickly corrected.

Ai Rui took it and looked at it suspiciously, and confirmed that there was a person who said angrily: "This must be a eunuch who made a mistake and wrote one more word." ”

"What is a eunuch?" asked Gal curiously.

Ari said casually: "That's another country's business, and any country like Jeff who waits for the royal family has to cut it there." ”

"Where is that?"

"You're young, you'll know later. ”

Jeff's legs tightened, and although Ari didn't say exactly where it was, he felt the chill coming from that position for the first time......

Not long after the news of the expansion spread, Fina, Lilia and others rushed over.

"Originally, the Knights were under my control, but now that I want to expand the Knights, I will still have to listen to me in the future. "When Lilia arrives, she will immediately ask for control of the Knights.

Eudora followed behind, and when she heard Lilia say this, she was not happy at the time: "Lilia, you can't be so domineering in doing things, you already have five hundred knights, and this time you are exactly five hundred cavalry per person." ”

Luo Lin also said: "Yes, I'll be fair, this time everyone has to have a ......."

When Ari heard them arguing, his head suddenly grew a little bigger, and he turned to Gal and said, "Take them away, you can discuss these things yourself, and tell me the results." ”

Gal hurriedly pushed Eudora and them, and in the distance, Ari could hear their heated arguments.

"See, it's about expansion, the Knights were originally mine, and of course I'm in charge of the expansion. ”

It wasn't until his voice completely disappeared that Ari turned his head to look at Fina and asked, "What are you doing here, you don't want to be the financial steward anymore?"

"No, I want to ......" Fina quickly shook her head, but suddenly became embarrassed in the middle of speaking.

Ari waved his hand and said, "Tell me something." ”

"I started the matter for the Dragon Falcon Army?"

Ari looked at her with a strange expression: "What's the matter with the Dragon Falcon Army, isn't it good?"

Fina spread her hands and shrugged, "I originally wanted to say not to expand the army, but now it seems that there is no need to say it. ”

"Why not expand the army?"

"It's too much to spend gold. Fina said excitedly: "It's okay if people raise an army and have meat every day, you actually have demonic beast meat here, if you add another 1,500 knights and 2,000 soldiers, you will have to spend at least 50,000 gold coins more every month!"

"You miscalculated, 1,500 knights and 3,000 servants are also according to the standard of soldiers, so it is 5,000 ordinary soldiers. ”

Fina's eyes straightened when she listened, and if she opened three thousand more mouths, the expenses would have to be increased.

That's a month...... Close to 100,000 gold coins? 1 million a year?

Fina felt like she was going crazy, when did the gold coins become so worthless, and the Onassis family couldn't earn the money that the Dragon Falcon Army spent in a month in a year!

"Does Warcraft meat have to be served every day?" asked Fina, gritting her teeth.

"Yes. ”

"Do you have to forge weapons and armor?"

"No," Ari shook his head, and just as Fina breathed a sigh of relief, Ari corrected, "That's an ordinary soldier, and the squad leader and above must be forged." ”

Fina just did the math and gave up immediately.

"I'm quitting!"
