Chapter 146: Deterioration (1st Update)

This inexplicable confidence infected Senatia, who trusted Slok's judgment and asked, "Is there anything to lose?" ”

She heard Srock say that the other party had fled, and she thought that the two sides had fought a little.

"Nothing to lose, beautiful young lady." Srock said with a smile.

At this time, one of the two slaves who had escaped came forward and stammered, "Lord... Master.. Dog egg quilt. Killed by them! ”

It cannot be concealed, the master's slave died, and such a big thing must be reported, even if it will be punished.

"What!" Senatia's voice sharpened, the death of a slave meant that she had lost a sum of money!

The slave stammered and described what had happened, and the angry Senatia scolded her mother, she asked for a horsewhip from Slok, and beat the two slaves fiercely to vent her frustration, the two slaves were beaten, and they didn't dare to say anything, Senatia's strength was not great, and the patience passed, and this had to be exchanged for another master, and if she didn't die, she would have to shed her skin!

"From this day forward, all slaves are not allowed to leave the winery walls without permission!" Panting, Senatia returned the whip to Slok and made a rule that would make all slaves miserable.

Zhao Yu's face turned green, and the rice bucket hugged the hare in his arms tightly, if there was no accident, this was the last meat for the two of them.

"Master, someone is here again!" A slave stood by the fence and pointed into the distance.

Senatia walked up the dirt slope and saw several men on horseback coming in the direction of the east where the robbers had withdrawn, but on a dirt road rather than in the woods.

Several people soon came to the wall, identified themselves as the son of the owner of the farm next door, and asked for help from the winery in Senatia.

"Honorable and beautiful young lady, I am the second son of the Kent Farm, I beg you to lend a hand and rescue my family's farm!" The young master of the farm saluted Senatia and said straight to the point.

At this time, Libby explained to Senatia, who was unaware of the situation: "Kent Farm is six miles away, and it is a large farm in the vicinity, with more than a hundred slaves and some vassal farmers. ”

When Senatia heard this, she immediately felt that this was none of her business, what if she sent someone over to die? Dead one is a lot of gold! And his first priority is to keep the winery, and there is no room for loss here.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Kent, but the mercenary mission I issued is to guard the winery, and I'm afraid I can't mobilize them to the rescue, and the slaves. They don't have much fighting. Senatia said with a look of pity.

"We can get paid!" Kent shouted, "Two hundred gold coins, ask for the help of the young lady!" ”

Senatia's heart did not fluctuate, two hundred gold coins were used to send away the flowers? What's more, changing the mercenary's mission requires additional money and increases the risk of the winery, which is not worth it at all.

This is not to blame Kent for being stingy, two hundred gold coins is not a small amount of money for the farm, after all, grain is not too valuable, not as high as the added value of wine.

"It's not a question of money, you can go to another house and ask, we don't have enough garrison here." Senatia tactfully refused.

Kent had no choice but to set off again to find someone who could help them.

After this episode, the winery calmed down again, but it was not as lively as before, the slaves lost their source of meat, and could only watch the mercenaries eat and drink one by one, and the two slaves were also cleaned up.

In the evening of the same day, little Kent returned to Kent Farm dejectedly, no one was willing to help them this time, this time no one was willing to help them, this is also inevitable, everyone is threatened, their own family is difficult to protect, who has the kung fu to care about you.

Helplessly, little Kent found his father and persuaded: "Father, let's evacuate, we can't hold it here, I have seen from afar the bandit group composed of those homeless people, there are too many of them!" ”

Old Kent also knew that he couldn't hold it, a total of two hundred men, and there were not many weapons, but he was reluctant to give up his homeland, and he was reluctant to give up the grain and poultry in the warehouse.

"Father! We can earn it back in the future! Let's go! Little Kent shouted when he saw that his father was still hesitating.

"Eh, tell me to go down, pack up, we'll leave here in an hour, remember, burn all the food that can't be taken away, I'm going to starve this group of beasts to death!" Old Kent finally decided to go back to Carthage to hide, don't fight the family here, but this old man is also ruthless enough, he can't keep it, and you don't want it!

As it turned out, the Kent family was lucky, less than half an hour after they left, the bandits attacked under the firelight, thousands of refugees rushed into the Kent farm as fast as they could, the empty farm surprised them, and the burned grain made them full of anger, the mob set fire on fire to the entire Kent farm, even a few miles away in the Senatia winery, the fire could be seen.

This kind of thing is not single, except for a few farms that have the courage to fight to the death and the jade is burned, most of the people have seen the situation bad and evacuated, this year's bandits are too serious, each group is quite a lot, which is like in previous years a maximum of two or three hundred, the big farm is not afraid at all.

The miscalculations cost the farmers (and the big slave owners) a lot of money, and the next year they had to rebuild their farms hemorrhagically, and the life of the slaves under them will be even more difficult.

The farmers couldn't bear it, let alone the ordinary farmers, they all moved to Carthage and took the surplus food with their families, and before they knew it, only the Senatian winery and a group of hungry and panicked robbers were left in this area!

This is something that no one expected, this year's bandits are too serious, Senatia is a Roman, born in Rome since childhood, who knows this, greedy for money she made a stubborn decision, this is the biggest mistake, and the mercenaries are too proud, do not put armed civilians in their eyes, plus judge with past experience, naturally it is also a wrong choice.

As for Zhao Yu, although he didn't understand the situation, since he saw the thousands of displaced people, he also knew that this broken Zhuangzi estimated pill, but he was confident to escape and take Senatia with him, because the outcasts attacked Zhuangzi for food and wealth, and would not chase and kill the fleeing people first, as for the loss of Senatia, hocare! The more you lose, the better!

Indeed, Senatia has suffered a lot of losses, and there are only benefits for Zhao Yu, maybe this is an opportunity, a chance to complete two challenges.

Therefore, Zhao Yu informed the rice bucket, and the two of them secretly prepared, the most important thing was the horses, in order to prevent Senatia from riding horses, the carriage had to be brought, and because Zhao Yu was in charge of the horses, everything was going well, well prepared, and kept in a state where they could set off at any time.
