Chapter 225: The Storm is Coming
Hubert's appearance is honest and honest, and he always speaks with some unconfidence, giving outsiders the impression that he is like that, without the slightest suspicion.
Now, he just changed the tone of his voice, and he judged it like two people.
And Old Blue didn't change too much.......
"Old friend....... We have already made up our minds to live in seclusion until we are old, if it weren't for the fact that your youngest son is about to marry a wife and needs money urgently, we would still be two ordinary people. Now that you've made your choice, you can't easily go back........" Old Blue explained seriously.
"Old friend....... That young man, even if he is the messenger of the new lord, has nothing to do with us! Moreover, although his strength is not strong, he is not stupid, and even if we do nothing, he will probably survive. Hubert was puzzled.
"He's really good, he's trade-offs, he's tough and he's smart. I had intended to help him get out of here as an ordinary person, so that he would have the opportunity to report what had happened here to the new lord. However, when this warband entered Shining Gold Town in this way, I felt that this matter might not be easy!" Old Blue was still a little hesitant.
"Hah, you....... It's love hesitation, since you are determined to manage, then it's simpler. With our strength, it is not difficult to kill the baron of the Clark family directly, why do we have to use the power of the new lord!" He finally asked.
"If this trouble can be resolved through the new lord, we won't have to show up, and it won't break our oath. However, this does not seem to be a simple matter....... Your sense of magic is not particularly keen, but I can clearly feel that there is an extremely evil force that is converging in that direction. Old Blue subconsciously looked at the direction of the Clark family, worried.
And in his perception, the magic entrenched there has covered the sky and the sun, and it is so huge that it is beyond imagination........
He pondered for a moment, then continued: "I am afraid that a lord who has just succeeded me will not be able to cope with this situation, and we do not know much about this matter, and it is very likely that killing that baron will make the whole situation unpredictable....... Therefore, I think it would be a better choice to secretly assist the new lord. ”
"Hehe, you say yes, that's it! I've always supported you. Hubert immediately expressed his attitude, and went on to ask, "Do you intend to continue to secretly follow this young man until he is out of danger?"
"He's very smart," said Old Gru, ....... without hesitation, "he is now isolated and not strong, and if he turns back at this time, not only will he have to walk for two days, but he will also have to pass through the hinterland of the Clark family, and the danger can be imagined, and he may not be too sure in the face of this situation." On the contrary, if he continues on his way, all goes well, he will be able to get out of this canyon early tomorrow morning, and if he can pass through the checkpoint smoothly, he will be able to enter the important town on the outskirts of Liber in half a day, and after buying enough horses there, he will be able to reach Liber the next day. Once there, you'll find a wizard who is proficient in teleportation, and you'll be able to return directly to Shining Gold. ”
Hubert nodded approvingly: "This is indeed a possibility! This young man is thoughtful, which is indeed good, and I am more curious about what kind of person is the new lord who can make such excellent people willingly serve him!"
"Soon we will be able to see him......." Old Gru's voice did not fall, and he turned into a black mist and disappeared without a trace.
"Hehe, you're still a little more anxious than I am at this age......." Hubert took a step back and melted into the shadows.
。
Placing thousands of people is not an easy task. Moreover, the identities of these people are still a little special, and they need to be prepared even more.
In this regard, Chief Administrative Officer Phil Mithril offers three options. After careful study, Yunlang chose the simplest method.
To put it simply, it is to let each nearby village bear some of it.
The advantage of this is that the investment is relatively small, which is easy to supervise. But there are also some disadvantages, which is that it is difficult for these people to integrate into those villages, which will definitely lead to some situations.
Yunlang was too busy to deal with this matter personally, so he chose a direction and continued to hand over the follow-up matters to Fei'er with full control.
When Fei'er officially received the order, she also made a proposal in passing: "....... Nowadays, it is not good for the garrison officer to be in charge of the local government, and I suggest that the garrison officer should only be responsible for the security of the locality, and the more suitable junior administrative officer should be in charge of the administrative affairs of one village or several villages, which is very beneficial......."
Without waiting for her to finish speaking, Yun Lang planned for her: "The benefits, I also know, can not only strengthen management, but also effectively reduce the burden of the people....... But for now, we can't make big changes for the time being, and we need to wait for a more suitable time. ”
Regardless of the rest, these alone are enough to show that she is indeed exceptional.......
"Lord Lord, with all due respect, no one in Shining Gold now dares to go against your will, and as long as you are willing, this order can be carried out smoothly. ”
Yun Lang still shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Let me give you an analogy, if you are hit by an arrow in the arm, do you cut off the arm directly, or pull out the arrow and treat it slowly?"
"It's ....... It's not the same!" Phil was surprised.
"Hehe, if you follow your method, it is tantamount to directly cutting off your hands and feet, and then the entire territory will be in chaos, who can you command?" Yun Lang asked rhetorically, and patiently reminded: "Don't be anxious about anything, if you are not careful, thousands of people may die directly." It is best to minimize the impact as much as possible, so that the goal you want to achieve can be completed silently without others realizing it. ”
Fei'er suddenly said: "You are not against this result, but you are worried that this process will cause too many people to oppose it....... I see, I'll tell you when I have a better way!"
Yunlang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: Although she is very smart, she is not a professional after all, and it is inevitable that she will be a little one-sided when she thinks about things, and she only sees the benefits and does not see the shortcomings....... In the future, I will have to strictly control the gates, and I will also appropriately limit her power! Alas...... It's so tiring!
As soon as Fei'er left the door, Mansha hurriedly walked in.
"What's the matter, so anxious?" Yun Lang said as he motioned for her to sit down.
After Mansha gave a salute, she sat down on a nearby chair: "My lord, the thugs located on the east side of Shining Gold Town have been roughly investigated and can be arrested at any time." ”
Yun Lang nodded, remembered something, and asked, "A few days ago, I went to the dungeon....... Visiting Li Shui and listening to the guards, what kind of gang does Gandalf seem to have formed in charge of this matter?"
"Cloud Shadow Gang!" Mansha hurriedly explained, "He has reported this matter in detail, and promised that after completing the mission, this gang will be disbanded!"
Yun Lang pondered for a while, and then tried to ask, "How many people are there in their Cloud Shadow Gang?"
Mansha didn't quite understand why Yun Lang cared about these little things, but fortunately she understood in advance, so she returned truthfully: "Yesterday, when he sent someone back to report on the progress, I asked about it, and the answer I got was that it was nearly a thousand ........"
"So many?" Yun Lang was a little surprised.
Mansha didn't care, and explained with a smile: "My lord, even if they don't exaggerate, they are just numbers, like a pile of loose sand, and their combat effectiveness is not strong. ”
"No, no, no....... It's not just a question of combat effectiveness. After thinking about it seriously, Yun Lang suggested, "Mansha, is it possible for the Cloud Shadow Gang to take over daily affairs such as patrolling the streets?" ”
"Your Excellency........ These people are gangsters, and their temperament is difficult to change, and if they are directly relegated to the garrison, it will affect your reputation!" Mansa hurriedly reminded.
Yun Lang consciously didn't think about it enough, so he didn't continue the discussion, and instead ordered: "This matter, I'll talk about it later...... Prepare as soon as possible, catch them all tonight, and announce it in public early tomorrow morning. At the same time, try to find some reasonable charges as much as possible, so that some can be directly executed. At the same time, he also ordered Gandalf not to disband the Cloud Shadow Gang for the time being, and to fully assist us in stabilizing the situation. ”
"Obey!" Mansha stood up to take orders.
