Chapter 270: Variables
The day after the garrison lord Williams Alphonse took control of the garrison forces through a great victory over the rebels, he spent the whole day referring to the system of NPC garrisons provided by Antari and Windsalia to specify the rules and regulations of the garrison troops of Hatsuba City, rewards and punishments, and then perfected the organizational form.

A squad of five people, a squadron of ten, and a squadron of twenty people, based on the player's team conventions, Williams delineated the garrison according to the above criteria.
In the end, they were roughly divided into three teams, one under the command of Williams himself, while one of the remaining two was led by Booker Blair and the other by Mordan Roentgen. As for the squadron leader and squad leader, they were appointed based on the merits of the last battle, and the reasons were also made public.
Then, in the afternoon, he publicized his new policy to the residents by posting notices on the bulletin board in front of the fortress gates, or by sending leaflets from door to door in the garrison-controlled area by people like Paantali and Windsalia, who were still close friends, - recruiting garrisons for everyone, i.e., players and NPCs.
This order was scoffed at by Mordang in private, and Booker was not very optimistic. Because the reputation of the garrison has long been stinky, who will join it now?
In fact, the first day of the implementation of this policy, which was the third day of Williams' return, was indeed not ideal. For a whole day, only a handful of people signed up, and all of them were NPCs.
However, just when everyone was expecting that there would be none of them the next day, things went in the opposite direction. Since early in the morning, many people have come to sign up, and there are even players among them.
"Damn. ”
Seeing the long queue at the gate of the fortress, Mo Dang muttered unwillingly, and immediately turned around and went back with the adjutant to continue training his troops, of course, in strict accordance with Williams's instructions.
Booker was also watching the excitement, he and Mordang had come together, and it was very pleasant to see the latter's appearance at this time.
"It's a different amount. After he said with a smile on Mo Dang's back, he turned his head to look at the small grand occasion before the game, and the more he watched, the happier he became.
"But it's a really incomprehensible phenomenon. Booker's lieutenant said.
"What's so strange!" a girl's voice rang out from behind them. They looked back and saw Lilulua with a smug face.
"What does the eldest lady know?" asked Booker's lieutenant curiously.
"Miss" of course refers to Lilulua. The title spread among the garrisons in just three days. Because, Williams is very strict with everyone, but he is very tolerant of Lilulua, as if he is spoiling his own sister.
And Lilulua, who didn't know anything about it, thought that everyone liked her very much, so she gladly accepted it, and at this time, too.
"Hmm. She nodded, and then spoke in the tone of a teacher teaching students, "Do you know that because of the war situation, less than a third of the people in this western district were transferred in time. Those who stayed behind suffered from two problems because of the war, one was the rise in prices, and the other was that they did not have jobs to earn money to meet the rising cost of living. It was at this time that we put a job in front of them that could be held high and had a lot of salary to earn. If it were you, would you refuse?"
"I see. Then those people who came yesterday are equivalent to the brave people who were 'the first to eat crabs', and their verification has brought about today's scene. Booker nodded understandingly, "Then these new recruits will become the real subordinates of Your Excellency." Anyway, that's what Your Excellency told you, right?"
Hearing this, Lilulua's expression suddenly became embarrassed.
"Yes, yes, whatever! Anyway, I know, you don't know!"
"Can you please answer my other question?"
"What?"
"That's ......," said Booker, looking at the people who were signing up, "don't they know that we are at war? ”
"Of course they do. Booker's question didn't bother Lilulua, and she smug again. "But they also heard rumors of an imminent peace treaty. ”
Hearing this, Booker and Booker couldn't help but be taken aback, and couldn't help but shout in their hearts at the same time: What's going on!
While the situation in the garrison was booming with the return of Williams, the rebels were deteriorating from the defeat four days earlier.
As Varun Ashtenin said.
The despicable sneak attacks of the guild leaders led to three bad consequences: First, such dirty methods made the rebels who had always felt that their side had a sense of inferiority. Second, the fact that even with such dirty means, he did not win, but lost a large game, which seriously hit morale. Thirdly, on the basis of the second, people began to question the command, and then finally remembered a question that had been masked by the victory theory: Valen, who initiated the rebellion, was just that, why should we listen to those guys?
Then, something very strange happened, and the instructions of the guildmasters, who had been actually dealing with various things and giving advice, began to carry out unfavorably, but the words of Valen, who had always been regarded as air, carried more weight.
Part of this is admiration for Valen's ability to clearly predict the consequences of defeat, and more of it is the disdain of several guildmasters. In this atmosphere, the guild masters, who had already been hit before, became more and more detrimental, and gradually had a tendency to collapse.
If this continues, the rebels may disintegrate themselves without any compromise from the garrison, and they may be retaliated against by the other side.
Warren was worried about this, and he felt that he had to do something. Because, it can be said that this incident started because of him, and he is responsible for it.
After thinking about it, Valen finally came up with an idea, and that was to negotiate. Although it was impossible to target Mordan Röntgen a few days ago, it is likely that Williams Alphonse is now in power, so it is likely to be another possibility.
However, he and Williams have never even met each other, and presumably they are only a little-known small character in the eyes of the other party. In the current situation, it is difficult to make contacts, so where is the opportunity for negotiation?
After thinking carefully about this question, Valen thought of one person, and that was his friend, or what he thought was "yes", the Red Demon King, Li Mengxi of the Yan Shan Pavilion.
His words might help me!
It was with this thought in mind that Valen set out on the main road to the Eastern District.
