Chapter IV Territories on the Border
After the feast, Feng Luo accepted Spark's gift, and from the words of the Legion Commanders, he felt Spark's pursuit of all his strength.
The heavy cavalry is amazingly powerful, and it is also the most well-equipped of the troops. However, due to the small number of people, it is difficult to establish great achievements. So, Sparkla gathered the crowd and formed a greater force.
An existence like Feng Luo is needed by anyone in power. Some things that can't be done directly need to be done in secret.
Everyone takes what they need, Feng Luo has no obstacle in his heart, and he will not feel indebted and grateful to Dade. Even after arriving at the territory, he felt that he had been pitted.
"Within three hundred miles, it is all my territory, and I have the power to control the ownership of these territories. Sparker rode on a tall horse, pointed at the mountains and plains with his whip, and his tone was full of heroism, "Now, I will give ten miles of land here to my friends!"
Sparker asked his men to put up a blue flag and said, "Fengluo, from here to the fertile land on the border, it is all yours." You can also bring the land across the street into your jurisdiction if you want, no matter how big it is. ”
Feng Luo was speechless for a while, ten miles of land, and the flat place was only about one mile. Then there is the high mountain, and after crossing the mountain, it is basically ten miles. On the opposite side is the land of the Haori Kingdom, to be exact, the territory of Qi Mingyuan, the general of the Zhenguo!
To grab Qi Mingyuan's territory, I'm afraid that even the king of Davao won't dare to really do it, right?
Spark's territory borders the kingdom of Haori, and you can see how unpopular he is. Or, he started as a commoner and was looked down upon by the traditional aristocracy, which, while not preventing him from being rewarded, could disgust him.
Three hundred miles of fiefdom, of course, cannot be compared with Qi Mingyuan. But in Davao, which has a small territory, it is relatively large. Among his peers, Spark's territory is the largest. Seemingly glorious, but his realm is always in danger.
Sealing Sparkk in such a place is simply to let him come up and block the bayonet. And he had to smile and thank the country first, and then the ministers for their support. Now, Sparky shares the disgust with Fengluo.
Instead of Spark, Feng Luo is at the forefront. Since he had not yet made war achievements, the maximum reward that the kingdom could give was only ten miles. If he could, Sparky would probably give all the land on the border to Fengluo.
Seeing Feng Luo's unhappiness, Sparker put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Brother Feng Luo, I have carefully selected this place. You see, there is no direct road on the opposite side, so you have to enter Davao from other places before you can take a detour. ”
Sparky said, jumping off his horse and drawing the terrain on the ground with the handle of his whip: "There is a path here, and the enemy can only pass through this way if they want to enter. The kingdom's armies will be tightly guarded and will not threaten your territory. ”
"What if, I'm talking about, the army makes a strategic shift and lets the enemy in?" Feng Luo questioned.
"It's possible, but you don't have to worry. Your territory is mainly mountainous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The enemy army will have to pay a great price to occupy the high ground. Not to mention the loss of personnel, the loss of morale alone will outweigh the losses. Sparker answered as he drew the line.
Feng Luo referred to the rough topographic map and fell into deep thought. Sparky expected to say that it would be better to give away land than to make military arrangements.
From the side of the Haori Kingdom, there is a path through it. And his territory, right next to the trail. If the army of the Haori Kingdom is not good for his territory, it can only pass through the small path, and it is impossible for many troops to come in.
That road, of course, will not be given away easily by the Davao Nation. Even if it is occupied, it is difficult to go up the mountain. If you put your forces into attacking the mountains, you have to guard against the counterattack of Davao.
"Look here, the enemy is attacking from here, you just have to hold it from the top, and the Davao army will attack from the rear, and the other side will be attacked from the back, hehe......" Sparker couldn't help but laugh when he succeeded in his treacherous plan.
"Captain, what am I going to do to defend my position?
"Well, don't worry. I can lend you a small squad of heavy cavalry first, and the rent can be paid in other ways. When you have a profit in the future, you can recruit people and build a private army on your own. Sparker smirked.
As a result of the discussion, Feng Luo wanted to set up a reconnaissance point in his own territory, responsible for detecting the movements of the army on the opposite side. He was paid for it. Deduct part of it as the rent of the heavy cavalry.
"Brother Fengluo, you are in charge of investigating, you can call my soldiers, and you have obtained such a large piece of land, and you have made a lot of money. Spark's tone was exaggerated, "It is said that under the mountain, there is a huge amount of wealth buried." ”
"Captain, have you found wealth?" Feng Luo would not believe the other party's nonsense.
"Hehe, I'm busy fighting, how can I find it. Brother, you seem to have more ability than me, you will definitely be able to find it, and when the time comes, you will share some benefits with me. Spark's face was full of fascination, and he said it as if it were true.
It seems to be a fair deal, but Feng Luo knows that he was used as a gun. If you help others stand guard, you will also be deducted part of your salary. It is said that it can call the other party's manpower, and if it can call on the manpower, who is it to help do things?
Feng Luo didn't complain, because he got what he wanted: land. With land, it is good to build a home. He was not afraid that Sparky would regret it in the future and take the territory back.
Because he was afraid that Feng Luo would not believe it, Sparky had already written the paperwork and sent it to the king. That meant that Sparky relinquished ownership of the land for good, and Windloe became the new owner.
Of course, as long as the Kingdom of Haori remains, Sparky wants Fengluo to occupy this land. With Feng Luo worrying about the danger from the border, he will have a lot of peace of mind.
The territory that Feng Luo got was easily recognizable, and on the opposite side was the land of the Haori Kingdom. And from the Spark territory, there is a river separating it. On the other side, there is a narrow path.
Afraid of Feng Luo's repentance, Sparky not only left a small group of heavy cavalry, but also immediately dispatched relevant supplies. In the name of setting up a reconnaissance site, Sparky sent several construction workers and transported a cart of grain.
Feng Luo's depression was swept away, and although he was threatened by war at all times, he finally had his own home. If war does break out, what difference does it make if you go elsewhere? Sooner or later, the result will be the same.
At the foot of the mountain, more than 20 houses were built. The houses are scattered, and the location is secretly in line with the furnishings of the barracks, which can echo each other.
A small house was also built on the top of the hill as a sentry house. The sentry house was built very secluded, surrounded by tree branches, and if you don't look closely, you can't see where the house is.
Where the land is cleared for sowing, where the grass is reserved for grazing, where the trees are planted. Many questions popped up, and Feng Luo felt that his head was bigger.
