Chapter Twenty-Six: Baron Leo
Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~
The rest of the dinner time Giggs was silent, leaving Gibson to whisper in his ears, but Giggs was moving food into his mouth faster, and he needed a quiet place to think about it now.
After eating, Giggs went back to his room and lay directly on his back on his bed, thinking about what Gibson had just said.
"The nobles of the ruined Dead Leaf Town. ”
"Baron Leo. ”
Giggs muttered to himself.
"First of all, why did Baron Leo come to your?" Giggs looked at the ceiling, his right index finger bent unconsciously.
"Dead Leaf has been destroyed by the gnolls for so long, and if Baron Leo came to your town for refuge, then why did he come so late? ”
"Then there's a reason why Baron Leo had to come to your!"
"For example?!" "Garrison?"
"If there is any place where Baron Leo must come to your, it must be that the town of your has a characteristic that the rest of the city does not have, then the garrison of your, which has just fought a great battle against the gnolls and won it, should be this characteristic. ”
"However, if you need troops, wouldn't it be better to go to Betan City, the city of Betan established by the Viscount of Ceylon, this tribe of gnolls can be bypassed directly, and the strength of Betan City is not as weak as a small town. ”
"Perhaps, Sir Thor will know something?!"
"The source of information is completely insufficient, I can only rely on my own conjecture, let's inquire again tomorrow~" After thinking for a long time, Giggs, who couldn't figure it out, decided not to dwell on this issue, got up and turned off the lights, and got into the warm quilt.
The next morning, after a morning exercise with the guards, Giggs went back to his room to sort out the plan for the formation of the boot camp, and when he found that there were no problems, he prepared to hand it over to Sir Saul.
As soon as Ryan Giggs arrived at the gate, he proposed to the attendants to see Sir Thor, only to be told that Sir Thor was receiving guests.
"Giggs, Lord Thor is receiving guests right now, so I guess you'll have to wait a minute. The squire greeted Giggs very familiarly.
Giggs seemed to have grasped something, and quickly asked, "Who is going to see Lord Thor so early, even earlier than me~"
"Haha, it's Baron Leo, he's been looking for Lord Thor early this morning, why don't you wait here for a while?" the squire didn't care at all to tell who Sir Thor's guests were, after all, Giggs was also their colleague.
"No, I'll go back to the barracks first, and I'll come back after Lord Thor's lunch break in the afternoon. Giggs shook his head and rejected the squire's offer.
On the way back to the barracks, Giggs pondered things.
"Baron Leo came to meet Sir Thor early in the morning, this is not a way for nobles to exchange feelings at all, this is definitely Baron Leo has asked Sir Saul, if it is really as I guessed, Baron Leo needs the help of the guard, then what does he need the guard to do?"
"Coupled with the fact that Sir Thor didn't care about approving the recruitment of a hundred recruits in one go yesterday, there is a kind of performance that seems to be rich, does this have anything to do with Baron Leo's visit?"
Back in the barracks, Giggs no longer thought about these things, everything could be cleared after meeting Sir Thor in the afternoon.
At this time, the guards in the barracks were training in archery, and Giggs couldn't help but play twice, two nine and one ten, Giggs pouted, and left satisfied in the center of the admiring eyes of the team members.
That afternoon, Giggs came to Sir Saul's house again, and this time, without incident, Giggs knocked on the door of Sir Saul's office.
"Knock knock~"
"Come in!"
Giggs leaned over and saluted, "My lord, I have a plan for the recruitment instructions you mentioned yesterday, can you see if it is feasible?"
Sir Thor took the document handed over by Giggs, flipped through it for a while, looked up and said to Giggs, "Your idea of this recruit training institution is very good, not only can train the existing guards, but also make the work of recruits more standardized, not bad, not bad!"
Sir Thor said two good things in a row, and became more and more satisfied with Giggs's performance, and after a little thought, he asked Giggs, "Do you know Baron Leo?"
Gibson's exact words, like those of Gibson yesterday, shook Giggs's spirits this time.
"I heard a little~" Giggs said carefully.
"Leo is the lord of Withered Leaf Town, made a baron by the elves, and hands over a part of the grain of Withered Leaf Town to the elves every year. Sir Thor said something he knew everything.
Giggs knew he had the next step, so he waited patiently.
Ser Thor continued, "Originally, the gnolls invaded Dead Leaf Town, and even if the town was set on fire, it was a heavy loss, but as long as the gnolls were gone, Dead Leaf Town could be rebuilt, and Baron Leo could continue to be his lord. ”
"You mean, the gnolls didn't go?" asked Giggs, a little surprised.
"Yes, the gnolls did not leave, but instead took over the area where the town of Withered Leaves was located and established a tribe belonging to the gnolls, and transferred the population from their original tribe. “
"My God, are these gnolls going to occupy the land that belongs to the humans?
"What you don't know is that the Viscount of Ceylon and the Baron Leo are at odds with each other. ”
"So, he's glad to see Leo being punished by the elves for not being able to recover his territory and losing his title of nobility~" Sir Thor said with a nonchalant expression.
"So, Baron Leo has found you and wants you to send troops to help him recover Withered Leaves?"
"That's right, when he learned that my garrison had dealt with more than 300 gnolls, he immediately came to me and asked me to send troops to help him recover Withered Leaves. Sir Thor smirked his chin.
"So, what is your opinion?" asked Giggs tentatively.
"Reward, see how much he pays~" Sir Thor said with certainty.
"And, above all, if I promise him, then, Giggs, you must be the commander of this operation, and use your wisdom and talent to help Baron Leo regain his territory. Sir Thor said as he looked into Giggs's eyes.
"The integrity of the garrison is the first priority, without paying too much loss, we can help him, if we can't get rid of these gnolls, then, the boys with the garrison retreat, a baron who has lost his territory, hum, there is no threat at all. Sir Thor spoke his thoughts to Giggs.
Giggs nodded, he knew that he and the garrison were definitely going to be dispatched!
