The war situation was further complicated, the army of the Alliance of Freedom and Equality finally appeared, and the Legion of Light formed by Ramsden, with a total of 8,000 men, all of them made up of civilians, was preparing to capture the city of Ponny.

Ramsden, the nephew of the democratic statesman Haussmann, was valued by Dunbar for his theory of governance and his intention to put it into practice and completely overthrow the rotten rule of the Church.

In the beginning, Ramsden had only a few hundred supporters and followers, and although the common people were living in poverty and struggling on the brink of misery, they were still able to make ends meet, and naturally feared rebellion against the church and invited death. At that time, Ramsden roamed around, agitated the people and slaves, and preached equality and a bright future, but he often ran into a wall, and was even hunted down and expelled, and finally came to Toby Town, where he was imprisoned in the Raptors Fortress by Brian and worked as a coolie for a month before being released.

Now the situation is different, the war of Yamelo lasted for two months, the military action brought huge losses, and the Church's exploitation of civilians became increasingly serious, resulting in many people without food, clothing, and homelessness, and the newly enthroned Emperor Alik, in order to prevent the Church from liquidating in the future, was also reckless, and the taxes were actually more than the Church's, coupled with the lack of governance, the people finally threw themselves into the arms of the Alliance of Freedom and Equality in the dilemma of not seeing life.

Ramsden's men had swelled from a few hundred to tens of thousands, and his heart had swelled hundreds of times, and he had never made any achievements, but with an anxious heart, he tried to achieve the great goal of his imagination - to build up an army, to capture the city, to seize the entire province, and, by the way, to take revenge on those who had despised him and humiliated him.

Ramsden sent a thousand men to hide in the Subo Mountains, and after the successful sneak attack on the Alik Governors, Brian was thrown into the flames of war, and his heart was extremely happy, but this incident caused Dunbar's extreme dissatisfaction, and he repeatedly stressed that for the time being, he should not take care of Toby's fiefdom and do not intrude on them, but Ramsden took advantage of Herois's negligence to satisfy his own selfishness.

Dunbar was determined to remove him from his position as district deacon of Ramsden and let him return to the refuge farm to do some theoretical work, but Haussmann repeatedly pleaded, emphasizing that Ramsden was already the leader of the province of Nisdor, and if he changed the general temporarily, it would lead to instability.

The so-called Legion of Light, composed of 8,000 civilians, with fervent eagerness, hibernates in the north of Subo Mountain, waiting for the night to come, and they have sent people to infiltrate the city, informing the surviving people that they are ready to riot during the night, and that the combined blows will definitely destroy the Croft's Angry Wave Legion, and these butchers with blood on their hands will be punished on the spot, and avenge the death of innocent civilians.

Ramsden was in a particularly excited mood, his career was reaching its peak, he would own a city, he would own a province, he would own a large land, such merit and power, even a prince would be so, perhaps he was carried away by excitement and excitement, but he forgot that there was one person who would not make his dream come true.

A joint meeting is being held in the Viscount's Mansion in Toby Town, and all those present are the authorities who have arrived in a hurry, Finn, the city lord of Ponny City, who has just surrendered, Grant, the leader of the guerrilla mercenary group, the Marquis of Isaac, and General Longfellow. Brian barely sat and exchanged views with all the big guys.

"I got the news, tonight, the Legion of Light of the Alliance of Freedom and Equality is going to attack Penny City and encircle Croft, take this opportunity, I have a plan to kill five birds with one stone, discuss it with you, if everyone thinks it is good, implement it immediately after you go back, I will send the Earth Beast to send you to the territory as quickly as possible. Brian said.

Everyone was silent, and they couldn't help but admire Lord Viscount in their hearts, with comprehensive information, judging the situation, insightful of people's hearts, quick action, and thoughtfulness, even the arrogant Isaac couldn't help but bow down.

"Yes, Ramsden, the commander of the Legion of Light and the deacon of the Alliance of Liberty and Equality, has overestimated his own strength, and overestimated the fighting power of the civilians together, and I can almost guarantee that he will not only fail to take the city of Ponny, but will suffer heavy losses and be defeated. Brian analyzed, "Although the Angry Waves Legion is poor, at least it is a military team that has been trained to fight, and once the fight starts, the civilians will understand what the war is all about." ”

"But there is one thing, because they are working together inside and outside, they save the trouble of attacking the city, and they will also bring extreme chaos to the whole city, which is just for us to fish in troubled waters. Brian smiled, it seemed that it was a bit inappropriate to use the word "fishing in troubled waters", and the brows of the big man opposite were slightly wrinkled.

"Lord Finn, you want to subdue the city, I'll help you achieve your goal, and after that, Penny City will still be nominally Alik's territory, but in essence it will become a subordinate city of this fiefdom, how about it?" Brian stared at Finn, observing his expression.

"No problem, Lord Viscount will help me take the city and wash away my innocence, and there will be no retribution in this life. Finn saluted.

"Whoever will take the city will trouble Captain Grant, your two thousand soldiers, in the most chaotic moment, with lightning speed, will have no problem, right?"

"As long as the adults can successfully carry out the decapitation operation, it will be easy to deal with the remaining guerrillas who have lost their command. Grant said.

"Well, Grant, your trouble is that since the church has ignored the mercenary group, it has been difficult to rely on mercenary fees to feed the army, so after this battle, please report the number of deaths to Emperor Alik, on the one hand, to get more gratuities, and on the other hand, it is equivalent to telling the emperor that the army has no strength. Brian said, "After that, you will lead five hundred elite soldiers to permanently garrison Penny City, and you will also have a base, and I will also give you thirty diamonds every year for maintenance expenses, and guarantee that at the end of the year, the whole legion will have rune weapons and fine iron armor, which will greatly improve the equipment." Of course, this unit will be subject to my dispatch in the future. ”

"My lord feeds us, and he must be at your command. Grant also saluted, "But what about the more than a thousand people left?"

"You told Alik that you died in battle, but in fact, after the war, you gave it all to Lord Isaac to be his regular army. Brian replied.

"Give it to me?" Isaac didn't know what to say for a while, shock, gratitude, and embarrassment all swelled up, "But Lord Viscount, with the current situation of the fiefdom, I'm afraid ...... I'm afraid I can't afford to raise so many troops. ”

"I will allocate another fifty diamonds to help you revive your fiefdom, your fief is ten times that of mine, and you will soon become strong with money, and you will need such a strong guard army when the time comes. Brian said.

"Fifty diamonds, also a gift?" Isaac's face turned red, compared to Brian's atmosphere, he looked too small-bellied.

"General Longfellow, your task is to arrange a decapitation operation, kill the executioner of Croft, capture Ramsden alive, and make no mistake, I will take him to the Sacred Heart City, and ask the Emperor for credit, we have exterminated the Legion of Light, recaptured the city of Ponny, and captured the leader of the Alliance of Freedom and Equality. ”
