Sunsettown, a medium-sized town known for its abundance of redshirt wood and copper mines, has recently welcomed its owner, a baronial lord named Reed. The residents of the town did not pay much attention to this very sensitive event in the aristocratic circle of the Northwest Province, in their opinion, the tax that should be paid still had to be paid, but it was just a change to a nobleman who collected taxes, which made Hu Bin, who was dressed in military uniform, not receive much attention when he entered the town hall.

What Hu Bin, who originally planned to return to Dandy City after the completion of the mission, did not expect that he had just received a letter from Dandy City after he dismissed the militia in the territory.

"Dear Reed, first of all, congratulations on your fight off the orc spies who invaded the province, it is the responsibility of every nobleman to defend the territory, and your feat of leading the people to repel the enemy has inspired every nobleman in the Northwest Province, many of them have already put you on the list of banquets, but unfortunately, it will be some time before they can see you at the banquet.

The harassment of orc spies should be a cause for concern, and the kingdom's expedition plans cannot be missed, and the garrison on the border has become especially important in this sensitive time, but unfortunately Dandy City cannot send more men to garrison the border.

In my capacity as Lord of Dandy City, I now order you, Baron Sorant, to repair the destroyed border posts as soon as possible, and to draw men from the militia of the territory to form a border patrol team to strengthen the security and defense there.

Here's what I told you as a friend, Reed, Dandy City will give you the power to issue official missions, and will support you in terms of equipment and funds, and I will personally support you with some supplies, but you must ensure that the border area is on high alert, this is my request! --- Hines"

Count Hines has given Hu Bin a problem, the southern part of the human territory has not been peaceful for a long time, and bandit groups often sneak over the border checkpoints and loot the villages near the border. The concentration of bounty hunters and mercenaries here is also a restless factor. Because these guys often do the same thing as robbers when they are short of money, if it weren't for the task to complete the task, Hu Bin would not have made this his own territory.

But from another point of view, Hu Bin took the initiative to take over the mess on the border during this sensitive period, which undoubtedly won the favor of the nobles of the Northwest Province, which made a good start for him to integrate into the aristocratic circle later. Although Dandy City does not have enough troops to support the border, it will not treat Hu Bin badly in terms of materials, and the power to issue tasks is also a big temptation for Hu Bin, but he knows it. Now there are a lot of Chosen ones in Dandy City who are still having a headache for the prestige of the camp.

In this way, Hu Bin does not need to rush back to Dandy City, as long as he sends someone to issue a task in the Mercenary Guild of Dandy City, there will be a large number of Chosen People here, and the lord of this place will definitely be able to exert the energy of the Earth Head Snake to investigate the strength of this group of Chosen One.

Sunset Town, as the only relatively prosperous town in Hu Bin's territory, was of course regarded by Hu Bin as the power center of the territory.

The local mayor was a veteran infantryman who had been wounded and retired, and he enjoyed a high reputation in the nearby area, and it was with him that Hu Bin was able to gather a large number of militia to exterminate the bandit group. Now Hu Bin is going to bother this elder cheekily for the second time.

"Leave it to me, sir, and I'll be sure to find some of the most suitable people to form the guard." When the old mayor heard that Hu Bin needed to form a border patrol team in his territory, he took the initiative to take over the errand with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Not only that, but I also have to hire a group of people to help with the defense. The repair of the border posts will also require the cooperation of many people, and a lot of labor will need to be mobilized at that time. Hu Bin felt a little guilty about the old mayor's enthusiasm, but he still said what he said.

"Those mercenaries don't dare to make trouble on my territory, and old Jack of the tavern loves these guys who overpay when they get drunk. Adults, you can hire them with confidence. As for the requisition of labor to repair the outpost, there is no problem, everyone knows that one outpost is more secure, and each village will send enough manpower at that time. "The old mayor didn't have a big deal this time. Instead, he said to Hu Bin very solemnly.

"Then I'm relieved." Hu Bin was very glad that there was such an empathetic and respectable old man in the territory, maybe for other nobles with a strong desire for power, such a figure would thin the prestige of the lord, but Hu Bin was an exception, he wished that he would minimize his influence on the territory, but he did not have time to govern here.

The task entrusted by Count Hines to Hu Bin is going very smoothly, and many aboriginal mercenaries are attracted by Hu Bin's task remuneration in the mercenary guild, and they have rushed to the border area to suppress bandits, and these news naturally reached the ears of the Chosen One, but after all, it takes a lot of time to go to the border area, and most of the Chosen One are still waiting to see these tasks.

But Hu Bin knew very well what the Chosen ones were most concerned about, and after releasing a batch of free bandit missions for the aboriginal mercenaries, he also asked the old mayor for some unknown reasons to release another batch of tasks. In the old mayor's opinion, the remuneration for these tasks is very small, but in fact, the things he does are similar to the previous tasks, and the old mayor, who originally thought that no one would take these tasks, was surprised to find that these tasks are actually more sought-after than the previous tasks with higher pay.

Hu Bin issued the second batch of tasks in the name of voluntary labor, and obtained the consent of the city lord of Hines, so that although the reward for the tasks was small, the prestige of the camp that could be obtained greatly increased. For the Chosen One, these chicken rib tasks that previously required a long distance have been transformed into hot sweets.

But the good foreign aid couldn't hide Hu Bin's embarrassment at this time, and he finally knew why the old mayor was so concerned about what he had explained.

The old mayor led the organized guards to report to Hu Bin, but Hu Bin stared at the militiamen.

"Isn't there something wrong with these people, well, I mean, this, this." Hu Bin barely showed a crying smile, wanting to express his meaning to the old mayor euphemistically, but he didn't know how to say it.

"Those rookies haven't even grown their hair, and they still have a handful of strength in all kinds of land, and if they are expected to fight, they will all run away before they can meet the robbers. These old ladies of mine must meet the needs of the adults, and we can continue to wield weapons as long as the kingdom needs them! The heavily armed old mayor waved his infantry sword excitedly. A group of veterans behind him struck their shields with emotion.

Hu Bin ignored the old mayor with his teeth and claws, turned his head to the only militia who met his requirements and said, "I remember your name is Ham, right, you performed well last time, are you interested in coming to me to be the captain of the guard?" ”

"My lord, I was forced by my father to come, he said that it was inconvenient for him to travel on one leg, let me give him a number first." After Ham finished speaking, he looked at Hu Bin's frozen smile stiffly, and was very apprehensive in his heart, because he was one of the rookies in the veteran's mouth.

"What a thing!" Hu Bin was made to laugh and cry by Ham's words, and the old mayor actually gathered all the veterans in the territory. Even if they brought their previous equipment with them, it was a loss that this was a border area, otherwise they would not have been able to gather so many veterans. Every veteran has some flaws of one kind or another, and their age will inevitably affect their combat effectiveness, but after all, they were once part of the regular human army, and there is no discount in courage and experience.

The armor of the veterans was polished, and it was evident that they had been taking care of these companions who had been with them in life and death.

"Time and pain have disqualified us from continuing to fight for the Kingdom, but we have the right to continue to fight for the Kingdom. This is something that no one can take away. After all, the old mayor, who was full of enthusiasm and had not cooled down, was an official, and he saw Hu Bin's embarrassment, "My lord, I implore you to give us another chance to go to the battlefield." ”

"Okay. I understand. Hu Bin stopped the old mayor who was emotional and wanted to come forward to thank him, and continued: "But I also have a few requirements, and you must abide by them. ”

"Your Excellency, please speak. We can accept any request. Before the old mayor could speak, the veterans below couldn't help but agree.

"Only a third of you will remain, and the other vacancies in the guard must be filled by young people. As for who stays, it's up to you to decide, Mayor Mare, and you're responsible for them and your territory. Hu Bin turned his gaze to the old mayor, and let him understand what Hu Bin meant, those disabled veterans are indeed not suitable to join the guards, which is not only irresponsible for them, but also irresponsible for the territory.

Fortunately, these veterans also knew that they could not be selected into the guard, but that did not mean that they were really just here to join in the fun, and the veterans asked for their children to join the guard.

This is exactly what Hu Bin wants, most of the heirs of the veterans have learned from their own Lao Tzu, unlike others who can only use some dealer tricks, as long as a little training can be pulled out to be a soldier, the courage to put orders with the orcs is an example.

At this point, Hu Bin has completely understood the old mayor's calculations, he is paving the way for these young people, after all, he is on an errand under the lord Hu Bin, and it is very likely that he will join the ranks of the regular army of the kingdom in the future.

In the end, both sides took what they needed, and Hu Bin's territorial guards were also settled.

After all, Ham still couldn't escape the fate of being the captain of the guard, which was a bit of a pressure for him, after all, many of the team were veterans who had fought with his father, but fortunately, his strength was relatively good, and the credit for wounding the wolf cavalry was quite convincing among a group of young people.

The old mayor still failed to join the guard after all, although he recovered well from his previous injuries and was in good health, but Hu Bin needed him to sit in Sunset Town to help him manage the affairs of the territory, but his son was selected to join the guard, this young man named Doron was as resourceful as his father, but he was a little immature because of his lack of experience, but it was just right for Ham to be a deputy.

After integrating the guards, Hu Bin handed them over to the veterans in the team to go out for training, and then Hu Bin had to focus on the upcoming Chosen One.

……

"Vicky, did you really decide to go to the border to develop?" One of the Chosen asked his fellow dwarves beside him.

"The quest is simple and straightforward, and the faction reputation rewards are huge, why don't I go?" The dwarf flipped the weapon in his hand, which was more like a hammer than a warhammer, and asked with a grin, "As a child of the Sun God, your caution is not in keeping with who you are, Carter. ”

"Cut, you simple-minded guy really fits your identity as a cultist of the Vulcan." Carter stroked the folds on his robe and whispered that the sun god he believed in and the fire god that Vicky believed in had some overlap in the priesthood, but the mustard between the gods he believed in did not affect the friendship between the two of them, in fact, as long as the camp was not absolutely opposed, this kind of relationship between the unrelated faith and only the friendship was common between the numbered and the Chosen ones.

"Are you really not afraid of blasphemy when you say that?" Vicky's ears were pointed, and he actually listened to Carter's babbling words clearly.

"I'm sure His Highness the Sun God will reward me for it." Carter said with a nonchalant look on his face, and the two laughed together.

"The mission there at the border is indeed a bit weird, and the mission of that volunteer mercenary is like it is tailor-made for us Chosen One, it's really weird." Although he had decided to go to the border with Vicky on a mission, Carter was still a little worried.

"How many times do you want me to say it before you can relax, the mission there is not only for our Chosen One, but even the aboriginal mercenaries have also intervened, and the border has indeed been a little uneven recently, even the outpost has been demolished by bandits, it seems that Dandy City has made up its mind to clean up there." Lotte Pevich's words Carter heard it more than once, but he was naturally cautious and suspicious, he still couldn't put his mind at ease, they were able to get together and get along well, maybe there were some complementary personality factors in it.

"I've heard there's a new lord there's on the border, maybe we can pay a visit, maybe there's something worth doing." Vicky saw that he couldn't completely convince his friends, so he didn't continue to force it, after all, Carter's words also had some truth, but the two of them didn't go well in collecting the prestige of the camp, and the only opportunity they could seize was this border trip.

"Forget it, although the lord there is only a baron, it's not something that those of us who are civilians can see casually. But since you've said so, let's try to find out. After the two finalized their itinerary, they continued to the south, and the destination was the border town of Sunset, but what Vicky of the two did not know was that an old acquaintance was waiting for his arrival there. (To be continued......)

PS: I wanted to update it yesterday, but I saw a comment in the book review area, and I was in a very bad mood, so I ......

I get off work at 5 o'clock every day, take the car, eat, and then spend 4 hours on updates, sometimes until midnight to code enough words, and the income from writing books does not exceed 300 yuan per month. How many 4 hours are there in a day? I appreciate your subscriptions and support, and I'm not angry at all when you guys watch piracy, because I'm also watching piracy, but I want to say that I don't owe you anything at all.

Some readers, that is, so-and-so, said that I sell dog meat on the head of a sheep, I admit that there is a point, an overhead world structure will indeed make many people uncomfortable, but what I want to ask is how to write the battle mode of Warcraft according to the historical facts of World of Warcraft? How to write the 2v2, 4v4, f chaos after that? Anyway, I'm not very good at writing, so I'll throw away all the history that imprisons the plot, and you'll write it.

I wondered, World of Warcraft is also a fantasy, why should I be so questioned if I don't follow its history? In the fanfiction, the plot was changed beyond recognition, didn't you also watch it very cool?

Here's my exact words: "As an author who has been in the middle for a long time and no longer intends to pursue monthly passes and subscriptions, I don't want anything from readers like you, but I don't like to be cautious." ”

I think I've said it very tactfully, and if these words cause some people to be unhappy, I can only say ****
