Chapter 695: Solved at dawn
The captives, who thought they would be put to death, or who were lucky enough not to escape the fate of being slaves, were all excited by these two proposals. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As the vanquished, they could not only leave, but also get enough water and food to return home, and even a pocket of silver coins to manage.
This gives them the illusion that they are not losers, and this kind of treatment is clearly only available to winners, right? It's incredible.
The other condition is even more attractive, you only need to work for five years, and you can have a legal status and live peacefully in the rich land.
This condition is absolutely tempting for those soldiers who choose to go to sea to serve as soldiers who can't get along in the Bay Gorge area.
"Don't be in a hurry to make a decision, let's eat something first, these ships leave before dusk, and if you want to leave and return to the Gulf Gorge, you should board before dusk, and if you choose to stay, you will rest for a few days, and another ship will come to pick you up, and you will sail north to the Far East to work and live there. ”
After Lin Ye announced his two proposals, he turned to leave, and waved his hand as he turned around, and the soldiers came over with small carts.
The cart was covered with a layer of cloth, steaming hot, and when the cloth was removed, there were layers of freshly baked bread, and the captives' eyes were green.
After all, they had been without food and water for several days, and they were already hungry, and now there was soft and delicious bread brought to them, and they all reached out to grab it.
"Oh my God, what is this, why is it so delicious, it tastes so good, much better than the stinky dried fish we eat every day. ”
"I haven't eaten anything so delicious since I went to sea, no, even if I haven't eaten it before, what kind of meat is this, it's so delicious. ”
"This must be a gift from the god of the sea, if only we could eat such delicious things every day, what a blessing it is. ”
The captives devoured them one by one, they were so hungry that they had the slightest intention of resisting in such a situation? Maud trembled with anger.
"Hey, you guys, can't eat their stuff, these are all poisonous, can't be eaten, all of them will be spit out for me, don't you obey orders?"
Maud kicked at the men who were grabbing bread next to him, shouting at them in an attempt to stop them, which was not a good situation.
He originally wanted to incite the soldiers to resist, but now, except for a very few people, who else still has the heart to stand up and resist?
Allowed him to scold and kick hard, the soldiers were indifferent, unable to stop their enthusiasm for grabbing bread, and Maud was powerless to restrain the situation.
"If you want to kill you, you don't need to use poison at all, just let you drown in the sea, Maude, you really have backbone, if you don't eat it, it will be gone for a while, but after all, you are a high-level personnel, and when the soldiers are cut off from water and food, they can't cut off you. ”
Haigl smiled coldly when he saw Maude's appearance, he had suffered a lot of anger from Maude in the past two months, and now his status has reversed.
"Boss, don't you really want to eat a little bit? The taste of this bread is really good, I specially grabbed a little for you, you can taste it, even if you want to do something else, you have to eat enough and have the strength to do it, if you don't eat it, it will be gone for a while." ”
At this time, one of Maud's cronies squeezed out of the crowd and handed Maude a piece of bread, who was furious and raised his slap to slap him.
"Calm down, anger can't solve the problem in this situation now, since he is willing to let us go, then wait until we leave, don't start unnecessary conflicts here, don't worry, this arrogant boy will definitely pay the due price for what he did!"
Pasong, who had been silent, grabbed Maude and motioned him to calm down, and he stared at Lin Ye's back as he turned away, unwilling to fail.
Maud was stunned, but finally clenched his fists and endured it, this matter would not be stopped so easily, as long as they still had a breath.
They won't give up revenge, after all, compared to survival, the hatred that goes deep into the bone marrow is the more powerful force that supports them.
Lin Ye walked to the port and talked to the local fishermen about fishing and some things related to the sea, and then spread out the map on the beach.
The threat to the east coast of the empire is not completely over, but it is already at the end, and he has a final finishing plan, which is just a step to complete.
You should think about the next step, that is, the southern front battlefield of the empire, Lin Ye knows very well that the situation over there is not optimistic.
"Now that the Federation Army is heading north and breaking through the southern border city of Dusk City, Wren has to retreat to Alpine City, the situation is also precarious, once Alpine City falls, then the entire Steel Rock Province will be exposed to the front of the Federation Army, they will take advantage of the situation to go north, and they will arrive in the Iron Wall Province. ”
Lin Ye's fingers moved on the map, all the way from Dusk City to Alpine City, and then slowly retreated inward, frozen in the Iron Wall Province.
He is no stranger to the province of Ironwall, where he arrived in the town of Talon after a thousand-mile march over the Talen Mountains from the Rose City in the south.
It belongs to the Iron Wall Province, and his road to conquer the empire also starts from the Iron Wall Province, which is the last barrier of the royal capital.
"If it really comes to that point, the situation will be out of control, once the royal capital is in an emergency, the Dromak Federation will see the hope of victory within the Federation, and there will be a steady stream of additional troops, after the decline of the empire, the Demok Federation has secured the position of the first power in the continent, which is not comparable to other forces. ”
Lin Ye looked at the narrow strip of land at the southern end of the continent on the map, where the territory of the Dermok Federation was located.
Although they were less than one-third the size of the empire and lacked resources, they were highly developed in commerce and developed on this basis.
After accumulating strength for decades, they have even overwhelmed the Empire, and the 80,000 troops drawn from this expedition, as well as the subsequent replenishment of the army, are less than one-third of the standing army of the Dmork Federation, and the country is now full of recruitment advertisements, and the enthusiasm of young people is high.
They are eager to go to the battlefield and make a career, and the presence of the big merchant class in the Demok Federation has reduced their development space.
They were desperate to get what they couldn't get at home in the rich land of the Empire.
"But my lord, didn't you say that you should solve the problem here once and for all before you go to Alpine City, there are about 10,000 captives here, and that Maud and Pasong seem to be very dangerous characters, is it really okay to let them go like this?"
Crouff asked with some concern, and Maude's vicious eyes impressed him, and anyone could see the anger in his eyes.
"Is there a problem between the two of them? No problem, don't worry, this problem will be solved before dawn, maybe it won't be until dawn?" Lin Ye looked at the sky, the sound of the waves was gusting, there were fish jumping out of the water, and a large number of fishing boats were ready to dock at the port.
They had been idle for too long because of the war, and they were ready to go out to sea to fish.
It's the golden age of fishing.
