Mira raised her hand and said, "What did you just say, what is the Kassel Treaty, and why do you want to restrict our territory?"

Conzes looked at him strangely, "Don't you have all these things in books?

Mira's face turned red all of a sudden, God knows what he was doing when he was in school, otherwise he wouldn't have been admitted to a second-rate art academy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 He looked at Ye Yu, who looked blank, and suddenly remembered that their brother and sister had never even gone to school, and his heart was finally a little more comfortable.

Mira laughed dryly and said, "I am a student of art, and I am not very interested in history and politics. ”

Kangzes laughed, and casually found a dead branch and drew it on the dirt floor: "Actually, I didn't remember these things when I was in school, and then my father whipped me up, and finally memorized all of them, you listen carefully." Many years ago, the Linfan Empire fell apart, and the princes of all walks of life fought endlessly, and finally formed a situation where seven heroes stood side by side. ”

"Among the seven heroes, our Holy Bine Empire is naturally the most powerful, but in the west of the Dapu Kingdom produces good horses, the iron cavalry is invincible in the world, and the five small countries in the south have formed an alliance together. In this treaty, it is stipulated that China must not expand its army, expand its territory, possess weapons of mass destruction, or wage biological and chemical warfare, which is simply a rope around our necks. ”

Mira asked, "It doesn't seem like there's anything special, wouldn't it be nice if we didn't fight?"

Conzes broke the dry branch into two pieces at once: "How can the army of the empire conquer the world without fighting? How can His Majesty the Emperor be rich all over the world? How can those untouchables realize the sacred and inviolable prestige of the nobility? Land, wealth, power, and status will not fall out of thin air, but they can be fought back with sabers and lances. His fists were clenched, his face flushed, and it seemed as if even a high mountain appeared in front of him, and he would fight to punch it.

Night Feather grabbed Mira and motioned him with her eyes not to say any more, but fortunately, everyone had been on the road for a day, and no one noticed that the two of them had abnormal faces, so they went to sleep after a little tidying up.

The next day, the team came to the front of a village, not far from the Mudu River, where the rushing water became gentle and melodious, forming a crescent-shaped beach at the edge of the village. On the river beach, a vast white reed swayed vividly, like a group of girls in plain skirts dancing gracefully in the wind.

Kang Zes hid all the people and horses in the reeds, looked at the map for a long time and said: "Strange, it is clearly marked as a small village, how can there be so many people?"

It was almost noon, the village was full of smoke and people, the young man with the hoe and the girl with the pot were talking and laughing, the old farmer and the old woman on crutches walked hand in hand, several white geese chased each other in the open space at the entrance of the village, and a yellow dog held the bones that he picked up from nowhere and licked them non-stop. The smell of food was faintly in the air, and the stomachs of several cavalrymen rang out.

Seeing Kangzes's strange eyes, a cavalryman blushed and said: "Captain, there is a big discrepancy between this village and our intelligence, it is said that there are less than a hundred people, but now it seems that there are at least five or six hundred, and our dozens of people are not enough for them to cut down, right?"

Kangzes made a blank face: "Imperial soldiers, since they are invincible with me, and without me, how can they retreat from the battle, no matter how many people are in front, we just need to take them by surprise and crush their resistance as soon as possible, and the rest of the people are not at our disposal?"

Just as the villagers were about to go back to their respective homes, the sudden sound of horses' hooves sounded not far away, and the villagers were so frightened that they picked up their hoes, lifted their sickles, and swung their steel forks from all directions, and some strong men shouted: "The horse thieves are coming, the men are coming with me, and the women, children, and old people are hiding in the house." ”

Everyone panicked, but the sharp-eyed ones caught a glimpse of the armor of the comer, and an old man also shouted: "Don't panic, everyone, don't panic, it's not a horse thief, it's the army of the empire, it's the cavalry of the empire." ”

All the old people were excited, for them, the yearning for the empire was still deeply rooted in their childhood memories, and they made their home so close to the Mudu River because their homeland was inseparable, and they still hoped that the empire could accept them back again.

Conzes had made up his mind to rush and kill, but when he got closer, he found that except for a few strong men who still looked at him with unkind faces, most of them were looking at him eagerly, as if they had seen relatives they hadn't seen for a long time. He muttered in a strange voice, "Why do these people look like this? Don't you know that we are here to rob?"

A hobbled old man walked up to Conzesma: "Excuse me, my lord, are you here to take us home on behalf of the Empire?"

The corners of Conzes's mouth twitched, and he didn't answer his question, but leaned down and asked, "Are all the people in the village here?"

"Except for those who are still fishing in the river, everyone else is here. ”

"Very well," Conzes's face changed, "surround them all, drop their weapons, and the men will stand inside, and the women and children will stand outside." ”

The old man trembled, and hurriedly said: "Lord Officer, our village is all law-abiding and good citizens, and there has never been a case of adultery, you can't be mistaken." ”

Seeing that his men were all in place, Conzes made a gesture, and one of the horsemen took out a scroll from his bosom and said: "Before the Holy Bein Emperor, Lord Kempinski of Stilwell has ordered, our army is conscripting sand bandits, and the people along the way should work together to provide military supplies. ”

The old man had gradually calmed down, and looked at Conzes with a clear trace of disdain: "It's almost winter, and we don't have much surplus food in our village, I don't know how much food this captain needs?"

Conzes read the meaning in the old man's eyes clearly, and he squinted and laughed, his mustache hanging from his lips like hooks. He violently suppressed his smile and coldly spat out two words from his mouth: "All." ”

Cold hissing sounded one after another, and a strong man shouted loudly: "You are dreaming, I gave you all the food, what will happen to our wives and children? How will you spend this winter?"

Kang Zesi sneered: "I don't care how you live, when you ******, aren't there many people who eat the bark and grass roots of Guanyin soil, you can do the same." Lord Kempinski secretly ordered the Gipps to be suspected of collaborating with the enemy, and ordered the cavalry to collect all the food, and not let a grain of rice or vegetables flow to the sand pirates. ”

"Oh my God," the villagers cried, "how can we live so far away from the desert that we can collaborate with the enemy?"

"We're not Gipps, we're all subjects of the Empire, but we live on the other side of the Mdu River. ”

"My lord, please be kind, my little grandson is only three months old, if all the food is taken away, my daughter-in-law will have no milk, and my grandson will starve to death." ”

The cavalry had already dispersed on the periphery, forming a loose encirclement, seeing that the villagers gradually began to be restless, they silently raised their crossbows, and saw the cold light of the black arrows, the villagers just surged up a trace of courage immediately melted and died like the first snow under the hot sun.

Leaving half of the men to guard, the other half of the cavalry went into the village to collect food, and soon there was the sound of rummaging over boxes and cabinets, chickens and dogs jumping, and after a while, several soldiers ran out to deliver fragrant meals.

There was an immediate commotion in the crowd: "This is my family's meal, just prepared." The voice was immediately interrupted, presumably someone had covered his mouth.

The old man standing at the front trembled with anger, and he couldn't stop reading: "Robbers, they are all a group of robbers." ”

Mira and Nightfeather watched everything that happened fixedly, completely unable to understand how the otherwise approachable Conzes could have become like this, and the companions who were talking and laughing together on the road were now red-eyed like crazy beasts, what the hell was going on?

The cavalry found a few carts, bagged the grain they found, and threw all the grain they could not move into the mire, while the cattle, sheep and poultry in the village were all killed, and the corpses were thrown into the dung pit, and even if they were fished up, they could not be eaten.
