Chapter 299: Planning, Guidance, and Bewitchment
Hearing Bron's rhetorical question, Chris suddenly didn't know what to say, he opened his mouth and didn't know how to take the sentence.
When the administrator of a province reaches this level, there should be no one in the entire Lopez, and it is a miracle that the Bron Legion Commander can sit in this position now.
Moreover, he had dismissed or expelled all the officials who were in charge of the administration of the province of Hierro, and the people who now sat in those positions were his cronies and clansmen.
Had it not been for the fact that one port of Lyon barely made up for the economic deficit in the province of Hierro, which brought it a huge flow of people and commerce, it would have been the most barren in the whole of the north.
But there is no way, I can only try my best to assist him, try to make this place not become more and more desolate, Chris thought to himself, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, a little weird.
"My lord, there have been more than a dozen such incidents, hundreds of people have gone missing, I reported to you before, and you have also ordered me to send soldiers to investigate this matter. He reminded softly.
"Really, why don't I remember exactly?" asked Bronn as he pondered, but he just didn't remember such a thing, so he asked suspiciously.
"Yes, my lord, I reported to you the last time you had a banquet for Count Emmakang, and you had drunk too much to remember. Chris replied respectfully,
But in my heart, I thought that you were talking about a group of mud-legged people, and if they disappeared, they would have disappeared, maybe they had run away to other areas, and if you found them, they would all be beheaded.
"I see. ”
Bronn touched his chin, thinking about it, and then he asked, "But does this matter have anything to do with the Marquis Jason?"
Are you usually using your usual brain on how to play with women?" Chris was depressed, but he couldn't attack yet, so he could only patiently explain: "We can send someone to the Iron Fang Collar to invite Marquis Jason to come to the banquet, and then intercept his team halfway, and finally put the blame on the murderers who caused the disappearance of civilians, and then we will arrest and execute the murderer after all-out investigation, and avenge him!"
"But where do we go to find the murderer?"
Bron's eyes brightened the more he listened, but finally he asked a puzzled question that broke Chris, but before he could answer Bronn himself, he figured it out.
"Yes, we just need to kill some random people, who knows if they are the murderers of the missing civilians?!"
Bronn clapped his hands violently and exclaimed loudly, which frightened Chris into a cold sweat again, be careful that the wall has ears, idiot!
"That's right, that's it, my lord, even if His Highness Phil wants to trouble us, he will need to weigh it carefully. He quickly lowered his voice and interrupted Bron's excited chanting.
"But you have to think clearly, my lord, if the plan is wrong, we will be doomed. ”
"This ......"
Bron hesitated when he heard this, he was not a decisive person in the first place, and he would always follow his words as long as he felt that the plans proposed by his wise men were more reliable.
"We can contact the people of the White Sword Province and ask them to calculate His Highness Jason with us. Chris saw that he had wavered and immediately added.
"Yes, yes, the White Sword Province, and the White Sword Province, Jason has been targeting the White Sword Province before, and recently I don't know which door I smoked to run my Hierro Province!"
Bronn was overjoyed, and immediately ordered his servant to bring him pen and paper and begin to write letters.
The corners of Chris's mouth, who was standing on the side and bowing his head silently, hooked up a smile, Bron, Bron, I finally waited for the day when I could see you bury yourself in the grave.
........................................................................
On the other hand, Jason only gathered about 4,000 soldiers and began to march towards the province of Hierro, of which 2,000 were drawn from the city of Lucca and Erbia.
When they were slightly hindered in their march to the border of the two provinces, Bronn with five hundred men of the Guards found Gareth, the commander of the army, with his letters.
On the grounds that the troops could not leave their garrisons at will without the king's orders, they forcibly ordered Gareth to return to the province of Lucca with the army.
But Gareth retorted, saying, "I am now a soldier, and I only obey orders from the Marquis of Jason." ”
This made the guard immediately angry, he was a distant nephew of Bron, and he had been used to following Bron for so many years, and no one paid attention to him.
And he thought that he was a close confidant of Bron, Gareth didn't dare to do anything to him, and this was the territory of the province of Hierro, and Gareth couldn't kill anyone no matter how tough he was, so he actually pointed at Gareth's nose in anger and scolded.
scolded him for being a dog raised by Jason's side, what qualifications did he have to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf here.
And then......
He was then killed by one of Gareth's guards for insulting the nobility, and yes, Gareth and most of them had a knighthood hanging on him, while Lancelot was a viscount.
Afterwards, Gareth took the 4,000 soldiers to find a place with a water source and build a simple fortification, which made the nobles in the vicinity of the territory unable to sit still, and there was an extra time bomb around him.
He sent his cronies to contact Gareth, but he ignored those who kept warning or inducing him.
Fortunately, none of the people sent by the nobles were as brainless as Bron's guard, but they all consulted with Gareth amicably, and they didn't want to die at the hands of this group of soldiers in vain.
He ...... How dare he ......"
In Hierro, Blon said as he looked at the detached body of his distant nephew, his lips trembling.
He was not angry at the death of his nephew, but at Blondo, a distant relative like him, but only at Gareth for daring to kill people in the province of Hierro, and that he had sent the killer himself.
This is simply to show himself the position of the Iron Tooth Collar and Jason, and he is not taking him, the actual controller of Hierro Province, in his eyes at all!
"Your Excellency, it's time to make a decision. Chris took a few steps forward and said to him in a low voice, a hint of cruelty flashing in the depths of his eyes.
"What he has done has made his position and decision clear to us, and those four thousand soldiers have built a huge fortification in our province. ”
"His mind is already known to passers-by!
