Chapter 71: Galen's Lie

The Gale Eagle landed directly in the Lord's Mansion in Folkestone Town in the nightfall.

The Gale's target was so obvious that Galen and Svein in the Lord's Mansion naturally wouldn't be unaware of it, and the two of them had already greeted it when the Gale Eagle flew into the sky above the Lord's Mansion.

"Your Lord!"

After Eren jumped off the Gale Hawk, Galen and Svein bowed to Alan.

"Haha, you're doing a great job, you're doing a good job!"

After Alan landed, he patted Galen on the shoulder and laughed.

"Come, tell me about the battle. ”

The three of them entered the council chamber of the Lord's House, and Galen told Alan about the capture of Folkestone.

Of course, the part where Svein lets the crows eat the corpse, Galen skips it.

Allen laughed again when he heard that most of the soldiers in Folkestone Town had surrendered without a fight, and that there were basically no losses in the capture of Folkestone territory this time.

The result was much better than he expected.

"By the way, what about the folkestone people?

Alan asked Galen and Svein.

Alan has been thinking about how to deal with the Folkestone family on the road, the Folkestone family is a big family, and there are dozens of clansmen.

According to the laws of the kingdom, Spike, Lord of Folkestone, defected to the Blue Shirts, and this behavior was undoubtedly a rebellion, and all his people were to be executed.

But let Allen execute all these dozens of people, Allen really can't do it!

So Alan asked Galen and Svein about the whereabouts of these people, wanting to meet them first.

Hearing Allen's inquiry, Galen and Svein glanced at each other.

"Tell the lord, when we attacked the lord's mansion, the clansmen of the Folkestone family would rather die than surrender, and they fought with us with weapons, and they have all been killed by us!"

Galen replied, his eyes flickering slightly.

Actually, it's not what he says.

The people of the Fox Stone Territory lived in the Lord's Mansion, and after Galen captured the Lord's Mansion, he and Svein killed them all with their own hands!

In Galen's opinion, he is a lord who is good at everything, but he is occasionally too merciful and ruthless.

He may be a qualified lord who can make the inhabitants of the territory live a good life through benevolent government, but he is not a qualified king who expands the territory.

To become a qualified king, you can be kind to your own people, but you must be ruthless when dealing with outsiders!

This outsider does not refer only to the enemy, but to all those who are outside his own power. Even those who have a neutral attitude must not show mercy when it is time to be ruthless.

If the folkestone clan were left to the lord's disposal, perhaps these people would pretend to be pitiful and plead, and the lord would let them go. But after all, these people have a grudge against the lord, and if they keep it, it will definitely be a scourge.

So Galen and Svein made the decision to kill all the members of the Folkestone family before Allen arrived.

When Alan heard Galen's words, his brow furrowed slightly, and his eyes were fixed on Galen and Svein.

How could he not see the strangeness in this?

Galen was looked down by Allen, and he didn't dare to look at Allen, but Svein had an evil smile on his face, looking like he didn't know what was going on.

Finally, Alan sighed: "Since they would rather die than surrender, then no one else is to blame." ”

Although he guessed that Galen and Svein killed these people without telling him, Alan didn't want to delve into them, after all, Galen and Svein did this for their own considerations.

They secretly killed these people, just because they were afraid that they would let them go for a while, and these people fled and waited for an opportunity to take revenge on themselves.

Then the three of them rushed to the barracks, called the vanguard knights, frost archers, and officers of the light infantry together, arranged the work to be carried out tomorrow, and then rested.

Early the next morning, light infantry fighters went from house to house knocking on the doors of the townspeople's homes.

When the police whistle sounded yesterday evening, most of the residents immediately hid in their homes and never came out. In addition, the soldiers of the Huaxia Collar did not disturb the people, but directly captured the lord's mansion, so most of the residents did not know that the town of Folkestone had changed hands.

The residents spent the night in fear at home, and the next morning they heard a knock on the door, and most of them were terrified.

Especially when they opened the door of their home and saw a group of completely unfamiliar soldiers standing in front of them, the anxiety in their hearts reached a peak

"Knights, what's the matter?"

The resident looked at the Huaxia Ling soldier in front of him and asked tremblingly.

Although not all soldiers are knights, ordinary people will call them knights as a sign of respect when they see them.

Many ordinary soldiers also liked this title, as if they were called knights, and they really became knights.

The attitude of the light infantry soldier was not kind, nor was it vicious, and his face was as usual to the residents who opened the door.

"Lord Spike of Folkestone defected to the rebel Blue Shirts in the kingdom and was killed by Lord Alan Senlan, the baron of the kingdom. ”

"From today, Folkestone Town will be temporarily taken over by Lord Allen and merged into Lord Allen's territory, Huaxia Territory. ”

"In an hour, Lord Allen will announce the future management policy of the territory on the square in front of the lord's mansion, so if you want to hear it, please gather in the square in advance. ”

The light infantry left such a word, and continued to inform the next family.

After the light infantry fighters left, the townspeople exploded. People are coming out of their homes to talk about what happened today.

A gray-haired old man leaned on crutches and said, "The Folkestone family has been running this territory for more than a hundred years, and I can't imagine that there is such an unfilial son now." Rebelling against the kingdom is a great sin that will kill the whole clan!"

"I have long seen that the Folkestone family is not a good person, and I didn't expect them to be thieves. Now it's okay, it's really innocent to be discovered by the kingdom!"

A young man gritted his teeth and said that he had been bullied by the Folkestone family, and now he was very happy to see the Folkestone family end up like this.

"But what is this Blue Shirt, why haven't you heard of it before?"

"I guess it's the group of soldiers in blue armor who entered the territory some time ago, I was still wondering where these people came from, it turned out to be a rebellion in the kingdom!"

"By the way, wait for the new lord Lord Allen to announce the management policy of the territory in the future, will you go?"

"Of course, I'd like to meet the new lord. Let's hope this new lord isn't as insatiable as the Folkestones!"

Inside the Lord's Palace.

"Lord, my lord, the time has come. ”

Svein walked beside Alan and reminded.

Alan nodded: "Okay, let's go out." ”

Alan led Galen and Svein out of the Lord's Mansion, and the square outside the Lord's Mansion was already full of residents of Folkestone.

The light infantry worked hard to maintain order on the scene, and the residents were in awe of these strange soldiers, so the scene was noisy but not chaotic.

Seeing the three Alan coming out of the lord's mansion, people started to talk about it.

"Is that Lord Allen in front?

"I know the last two people, and they were the ones who led the troops into the town last night. ”

"I don't know what the new lord is like, but I hope it's a benevolent lord. ”

Alan stood on the steps at the entrance of the Lord's Mansion and looked at the bustling crowd below.

"Please be quiet!"

Alan said loudly, and suddenly, the noisy crowd fell silent.

Everyone was glued to Allen, wanting to see what the new lord would say.
