"Okay, this is good news, maybe these three hundred cavalry can become our internal response! This matter will be left to you to deal with, remember, be careful to negotiate, be sure to pull this heavy cavalry over!"

When Jose heard the fat man say this, he remembered that Gould's subordinates before him were indeed extremely loyal and convinced of him, and he must have a great chance of seeing Gould, the former leader, to be co-opted. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Hey, sir, it's up to me. You don't know, in the past few days, I have met several of my old subordinates in the security army, and almost all of them are dissatisfied with these bullying Northwest Army. And after they knew that Lao Tzu was back, and he was still following you, they all said that they wanted to follow me directly into your private army!"

When Gould said this, he smiled slightly: "It's just that they are still imperial officials after all, so I will tell them to obey your orders first, and after driving these annoying Northwest Army out of Sadland, you will be in charge of this matter." Anyway, you are still the lord of Sadrandshire, and you have such power in both public and private affairs. ”

When Joseph heard Gould say this, he shook his head and said with a smile: "You fat man, I am just a viscount, and according to the laws of the empire, I can only have a private army of less than a hundred people at most. was able to recruit those 300 slaves as private troops, and it was already because I was isolated from the border, and if I didn't have a certain strength, I couldn't protect myself, so I turned a blind eye.

If I drive the forces of the Northwest Army out of Sadland, and then follow their example and dare to stretch my hand on the garrison, even if His Majesty the Emperor does not say anything, I am afraid that the governor of that province, Sistine, will be dissatisfied with me, and I will not do such a thing. ”

When Jose said this, he couldn't help but pat the fat man on the shoulder, and then his expression became a little serious and said, "Besides, Gould, you are not just a private army commander in my heart. You know, I'm already talking to Aroque about having an army that belongs to us if Sadran is to gain a foothold in the future.

Sophia's advice also included this one for me to arm, so I was determined to recruit soldiers and form an army in the northwest in the near future. Alok is calm and cautious, and as the deputy commander of Sadland, I am naturally relieved to hand over the garrison to him. And you, I will appoint you as the Commander of Sadland in the name of Viscount Sadland, and concurrently serve as the Deputy Governor of the Garrison of Sadland!"

"Lord José, you ......" Gould's heart moved, and he couldn't help but look at José with some excitement.

Only then did Joseph laugh at Gould and said, "Hehe, Gould, I have no doubt about your loyalty to me. You were originally the deputy commander of the county town of Sadland, but you are willing to leave the county town to follow me, an ordinary magician, and I will naturally not let you down.

Now that I'm back in Sadland today, you can't just be a deputy commander. I have not considered anyone else for the duties of Commander of Sadland and Deputy Garrison Commander except you. So now as long as we get Gray and the Northwest Army out of Sadland, our first plan will be considered a success. ”

The fat man listened to Qiao Se's words, and his mood calmed down a little at this time, he also nodded solemnly, and couldn't help but say: "My lord, don't worry, the security army and many soldiers in the city have become dissatisfied with the Northwest Army, and they are quite convinced of me, the former boss. And...... Lao Tzu's 300 cavalry are still in Gray's barracks, as long as you are the lord, I am even sure that I will instigate a mutiny that will make Gray busy in the next few days!"

When Joseph heard him say this, he thought for a moment, and then muttered, "This matter is not urgent, we still need a suitable opportunity now." Hmph, but judging from the current situation of the Northwest Army, such an opportunity is not far away. After such a fuss tonight, when my amnesty is issued tomorrow, I am afraid that the Northwest Army will really not be able to gain a foothold in Sadland!"

Qiao Se then glanced into the distance again, and found that there were several fires outside the barracks, mixed with some noisy and noisy voices, and couldn't help frowning: "I look at the appearance of the Northwest Army, I'm afraid that these protesting guys will suffer some losses, if the Northwest Army makes trouble, it will always be difficult to clean up."

It's just that Sophia's woman won't let me send troops to maintain order, otherwise I really wouldn't want to see such a scene...... Those people, after all, are all people from the county town of Sadland, and they are all the people in Lao Tzu's fiefdom! They were bullied and oppressed by those Northwest Army in vain, but Lao Tzu could only watch from afar, hum, Northwest Army, Lao Tzu will get rid of you sooner or later!"

The day after the people of Sadland rioted in the barracks, many injured citizens remembered the county warden who issued the tax promotion order, so some people soon proposed to protest directly to the county guard's mansion. This suggestion was quickly agreed to, but before the people had yet to gather at the county warden's mansion, another notice immediately caught everyone's attention.

This is the second notice issued by the county watchman, which roughly means that because raising taxes will put heavy pressure on Sadland, and because after the war, there will be a shortage of food and money in various parts of the county. Therefore, Viscount Sadland, the current county prefect, Lord Joseph, out of compassion for his subjects, was willing to take out 30,000 gold coins from his private treasury as the military expenses of the county garrison for this quarter. And the towns under the county town, not only can not raise taxes, but instead announce a one-year tax reduction, and the tax will be collected from next year's spring planting!

At the same time, because during the popular protests last night, some of the garrison troops openly suppressed the masses by force, causing casualties. The county warden took great care of it and decided to pay pensions to the families of the dead and wounded in his own name. Lord Joseph has ordered Gray to thoroughly investigate the wounded soldiers and officers, and not to tolerate them!

As soon as such a notice came out, the public opinion in the city was in an uproar again!

Soon news came out that the new county guard chief was a magician from the imperial capital, who was originally at odds with the Northwest Army, and was very disgusted by the Northwest Army's domineering behavior. And when Lord Chaux learned about this, he even decided to allocate money from his own private treasury for military expenses, and refused to raise taxes and increase the tax pressure on Sadland.

As soon as this news came out, the commoners in the county town of Sadland immediately rejoiced, and they only felt that the new county warden was a kind aristocratic lord. Compared with those Northwest Army, such a county guard is even stronger than I don't know how many times. For a time, Jose's popularity in Sadland also increased a lot.
