For the whole night, Martin was on the road with everyone. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Although everyone stayed up all night (Natasha was included, as a nomad, she had the ability to nap and sleep on horseback. However, she didn't dare to sleep so carelessly when riding a horse at night, it would be too dangerous. But they all survived. Those present were not ordinary people. Compared to the overnight journey, the rapid migration of nomads, the all-night stay in the laboratory for results, the ambush and hunting in the treacherous underground environment, etc., one night is really nothing.

However, when it was daytime, Martin still led everyone to stop, not because people couldn't stand it, but because they were tired. Martin and his party had limited access to horses, and they could not travel continuously by changing horses to rest their mounts, as the nomads do. In order to prevent the horse from collapsing. They had to stop and rest.

Natasha took care of the horses, while the others quickly set up their tents. Although both the academic mage Shirley and the Starch Spencer Druid Martin knew that in dangerous places, they should not be greedy for comfort and memorize those life magic, and should use spell slots to remember the magic related to battle. But because of the existence of magical items and other things, travel is a lot easier. A lot of the things that needed to be done to set up the campsite are gone.

The people present were all trained, and of course Zali and the others went without saying. Even Natasha is no ordinary nomadic woman, she is the eye of the tribe, a scout. Everyone has the ability to fall asleep quickly, and after agreeing that Martin will start the sentry, the others quickly fall asleep and rest as soon as possible.

Sophia didn't sleep, she walked over to Martin and sat down.

"What's the matter? Shevchenkova?

"Well, can you talk more about the slaves?" said Sophia, who came over.

"Okay, no problem. Martin replied.

"They, the rulers, say that man is divided into two. Some are born eagles, while others are born lambs. It is only natural for the weak to obey the strong. It's just that the strong must not be tyrannical, and the strong must be responsible for the weak......" Sophia suddenly said something like this.

"Do you believe that?" Martin interrupted, speaking to her solemnly.

"Me?" said Sophia, confused. Seeing her expression, Martin knew the answer.

"Well, there are so many questions to be asked about the power of the strong, the morality of the superman, and we can't say enough about getting from here to our destination. But I don't think we need to spend time on that, you're a paladin, and that already says where you stand. You don't think people are lice. ”

"Yes. ”

"Then I can simply say that. That set of identity rhetoric is nothing more than a way to fool the people. I don't believe in innate nobility or inferiority. As a Starch Spencer Druid, I certainly admired the strong and was convinced that there were naturally strong and weak. But I'm against the bondage of identity. ”

As he spoke, Martin stood up excitedly, "Take me as an example, maybe you don't know." I, too, used to be a serf, would have been bound to the land for the rest of my life, working as cattle and horses for the lord to earn a few more gold coins. But my master gave me a chance. Look at me now, am I a strong man?"

Without waiting for Sophia to return, Martin continued, "If it's a wolf, just be fierce and quick-witted. Wolves that are born with cartilage are weak and will be ruthlessly eliminated by nature. But we humans are different. We humans are social creatures, and even a person with a disability in his legs and feet has the potential to become a master carver. ”

If the disabled are like that, then why don't the able-bodied give them a chance? Why should they have to work all their lives without a choice? If they were given freedom, what would they do with their own consciousness? Think about how many slaves there are in this world. If you give them freedom, how much energy will they use!"

"So," Martin gestured vigorously. "Slaves deserve to be free! not just care. I know that there are many good people, and among them are holy warriors. They visited the various lords and persuaded them to be merciful to the slaves. But I would say, no more whipping the slaves, and better food for the slaves. These are only to alleviate and weaken the cruelty of slavery, but do not solve the problem fundamentally. What the slaves really needed was freedom. Freedom means hope, and one cannot live without hope. To be human means that people have initiative. And slavery is the cruel deprivation of the initiative of some people. If slavery is allowed to continue, it will not only cause many tragedies, but will also slow down the pace of development of all mankind. ”

Therefore, slavery must be abolished, not just to do good deeds for slaves. Sophia said.

"That's right," Martin nodded. "And that would be a long and great struggle. The road will be tough. If the mere preaching of the slave should be treated well, there will not be much resistance. However, if it were to preach the emancipation of slaves. Then it's different. Slaves, for many people, are their property. I don't need to say what people will do in order to defend their private property. ”

"That is, for those noble lords, there can be no more illusions. ”

"You can't say that completely. As I said before, productivity determines the relations of production. When there is a certain change in the productive forces, a part of the discerning people will realize that slavery is not suitable. They would also oppose slavery. Because that would prevent them from getting more money. In the struggle, their strength will help. ”

"So you mean, just wait, it's fine?" Sophia frowned.

"No, no, you misunderstood me, Shevchenkova. The broom won't run away on its own if it doesn't get dusty! I didn't say that you just had to wait passively for their favor. ”

"However, they will put new shackles on the original slaves. When the time comes, it is time for mankind to pursue a new round of emancipation. At the end of the day, the slaves don't rely on anyone anymore. “

"Won't rely on anyone anymore. Sophia repeated.

"Yes, it's all up to us!" Martin said.

Martin had some ink in his stomach, but he couldn't completely change a person's mind in a conversation that wasn't very long. However, when Sophia got up and went back to the tent to rest, she still had a lot of things to digest in her head.

By noon, the horses were almost rested. Martin called everyone up. It's time to keep going. After a good night's sleep, everyone basically recovered their spirits. And although Martin has not slept all the time, he can still hold on with the secret method of alternating the left and right brains of the Starch Spencer Druid. Although that's not so good for the body.

For the sake of Lyukrixia, Martin was in a hurry. If it weren't for the lack of mounts and the fact that the Northlands were too treacherous to keep them in good shape. He even wanted to travel day and night.

It's better to do everything as early as possible. lest you have long nights and many dreams.

However, Martin ran into that kind of extraneous thing.

"We are surrounded. When Martin retrieved the eagle that had been sent out to scout, he announced to the team.

Just now, they noticed that someone was lying in ambush on the side of the road. Martin immediately summoned an eagle to reconnoiter the surroundings, but it turned out to be unfavorable to them.

"Is it the damn bastards?" asked Natasha, eager to ask. She quickly loaded the bow with a bowstring, and was already eager to try it with her feathered arrows. If it's just that group of mercenaries, then it's not a difficult thing for them.

"It's not that simple. Martin shook his head. The enemy is clearly more than that.

It seems that the other party knows about Martin, and they have discovered the ambush and encirclement. So many of the horsemen, who had been lying on the ground with their horses, stood up, rode on their horses, and pressed over to this side.

In the sunlight, the iron armor on their bodies glistened, and they could see their outfits. Natasha became serious.

The enemy is not simply a group of mercenaries. There were a lot of Devo cavalry among them.

Sophia's homeland, La Minor, was originally a wild place, and the local population was quite backward. Therefore, in front of them, the Northlanders have the strength, and they have conquered them in the end. Although the Northlanders are also very backward, they are much stronger than the original Laminan natives. Thus the rule of the Northlanders continued.

In that wilder land, though. The Northlanders did not establish an orderly regime, and there was no formal system of taxation and management. The nobles of the Northlands were mainly taxed by leading a large number of locusts through the settlements. Taxes were levied everywhere they went, and at the same time, they ate and drank heavily with the property that the locals had saved through their hard work, and even plundered them. Like nomads chasing water and grass, the nobles led their retinues to move around their territories to collect goods and bring misery.

Of course, the locals hated this kind of behavior, and in order to ensure that they would not be killed by the angry locals, the nobles naturally had to have a strong force to defend themselves and suppress their enemies. The Dvo cavalry was the best of the forces they had assembled.

Each Dvo cavalry was equipped with an extremely robust horse, which was extremely important to them. Because they are authentic hoplites. Both cavalry and war horses were wrapped in thick iron armor. And in terms of weapons, they have a spear to charge and a tomahawk to cleave through the enemy's heavy armor in hand-to-hand combat. In addition to the first time, there is also a hard bow. It can be effective against the scattered nomadic archers. When the two sides were firing each other, it was clear who had the advantage between the heavily armored Devo archers and the nomadic archers who wore only leather robes.

The best way to deal with the archers was to form heavy archers, and the Devos were the product of this from the beginning. They then gradually increased their other tasks, and eventually became all-round cavalry. Able to charge, good at hand-to-hand combat. Those who are far away shoot with arrows, and those who are near are axe-split. Both on horseback and as infantrymen, they have good combat effectiveness.

Dvo's fame spread throughout the Northlands. Even Natasha, who has always been very aggressive, had to cheer up when facing them.

For Martin, the presence of the Devoe meant something else, and that was that his suspicions were confirmed.

At the beginning, he suspected that the reason why the mercenaries did not accept the settlement was that there were people behind the scenes. And when he saw this group of Devo, he knew that the people who instructed and troubled him were definitely not ordinary people.

Being able to mobilize so many Devo people, the status can be imagined.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――, there have been a lot of things going on lately, and it should have been running like clockwork, but unfortunately I got hooked on World of Tanks again. After repeated battles, it was already possible to develop the Tiger type, and the SU85b and crickets were also upgraded. In other words, this game is a good match with the military magazines of the year, and magazines such as "Weapons" often introduce Ferdinand to compare Tiger Hunting and Su152.

Nowadays, the Internet has become more popular than bad games. Probably as soon as there is any negative news in China, many people will immediately attract similar situations in Europe and the United States to prove it. What does it prove? Can someone turn a blind eye to the pimples on their own face if they have pimples on their faces?

Well, now I hesitate about many things about myself, and hesitation leads to impatience and overwhelm. It's a problem...... I have been ...... since elementary school. Of course, this is reflected in the fact that the update is very poor, as you know.
