081. Loyalty is so cheap
In the end, Tuman did not dare to move, because not far away, the "Roman projector" that attacked the castle yesterday was also moved out and aimed at himself, and it was impossible for manpower to be faster than this thing.
"Your Excellency, I have only come here to discuss with you the return of the 'castle' to law, and I have no other thoughts."
Tuman had no choice but to put the needle back in his boot.
"Why are you talking to Your Excellency? Your reply to the letter says that the White Eagle Leader soldiers are not allowed to enter the city? Let's do it, those who survived, go back and report the news, and prepare for the 'Wrath of the White Eagle'." Ladd stepped aside.
The four riders were forced to half-kneel because they were armed from the neck up.
Tuman sat back in his chair, maintaining the dignity of the nobleman, and said, "It is in your interest that many people will die in this way, and I think that the wise Lord of the White Eagle will make a wise choice." ”
After saying this, Tuman got up again, looked at the four horsemen, and drew his long needle, but did not aim at them, but compared it to the shield of a soldier in the distance.
Then there was a flash in his hand, and two seconds later, a tiny circle mark in the center of the shield was inserted by the iron needle.
"I'm much more useful than Granger, more ruthless than him, and I'm willing to be loyal to you." Tuman was confident.
Orlan saw this hand and thought to himself, no one among his men had such a good throwing skill.
Seems to be literate? He's a good person, but I don't know if he's a good dog.
So he deliberately ordered, "Waste time, kill!"
Quunsang saw Oran's gesture and knew it was a scare, so he raised his knight's sword aloft - but did not lose his thoughts
And Ladd approached with a hammer and threw it behind Tuman.
Between life and death, what else can be done?
Tuman could only learn from the others, half-kneeling and begging for forgiveness.
On death row, he had nothing to love in his life, but after he went out, in just one day, he was obsessed with this free world, and he wanted to live!

Kunsang then sent two soldiers to grab Tuman and remove another iron needle from his boot.
Kunsang threw the needle into the sand and stepped on it.
So Tuman knelt down on his other foot and kneeled on both feet with Oran, which was equivalent to the ritual of worshipping God for believers, as did the other four.
The White Eagle Shield Array was reopened, and the soldiers were separated, and five people were waiting for trial.
Then the five men were ordered to step forward and kneel in order.
Orlan picked up his immortal sword and tapped it over the shoulders of the five.
"Loyalty." That's all Oran said.
When the five of them were stabbed by the sword, they felt an inexplicable and terrible pressure all over their bodies.
For fear of being beheaded with a sword!
"Before dusk, Ben will see the gates open, the eagle banner in the air, and everything back on track."
After Orlan said this, he asked the group to let the five go.
"It's about your future lives." Southamp added.
The five men left the Orlan brigade and stopped as they approached the city gates.
After talking to each other for a while, they approached the city gate again.
Madame Rowling was already watching from the top of the castle by this time.
But none of the four midshippers raised their hands.
So she ordered the side door to open to allow the five to enter quickly.
The five of them hurried to the hall, and as soon as they spoke, they said, "Your Excellency Oran agrees to the conditions put forward by us, before dusk, a few envoys will be sent in, but without weapons, the envoys will perform the canonization ceremony on you, and they are also willing to spare the Boer knights, Madame don't worry." ”
Hearing this, the boulders and dark clouds in Madame Rowling's heart finally dissipated.
The five men also proposed that they should not let their guard down, and that they should each go down and command the soldiers until the Orlan forces had completely withdrawn.
Mrs. Rowling was all on board, and then went to see the unconscious Pol.
A lot of tears fell, but they didn't wake up Pol.
At noon, the castle was busy with the emissaries waiting to enter the city, and Madame Rowling felt that everything was back on track.
So after setting up her son, she told the servant to remember to call herself, and then went back to her bedroom and fell asleep.
At this time, Oran was also ready to enter the city.
All the manor owners of the Canaan family, a total of eight people came here at this moment.
Orlan asked for Tuman's name, from which he pieced it out:
"The baron's relatives, angering criminals, were imprisoned for ten years, and their family was ruined".
"Can his wife still be found?" Oran asked, but received no affirmative answer.
Oran thought for a while, waved off these manor owners, leaving only Southamp and Titans, and said,
"Send someone to find it, if there is no news, adopt a ten-year-old orphan, find an opportunity to put it in front of Tuman, disguise his child, a person who has been imprisoned for ten years, if a relative suddenly appears, what do you say?"
"He'll remember your favor (and it's easier to control when you have family)."
Southamp didn't dare say the second half of the sentence, but Oran knew he knew he was thinking.
Orlan had just scared Tuman, and now this deception was a favor to Tuman.
Grace and fear can turn this strange beast into a sheep too.
"You say, how wonderful that hand throwing technique would be if it were used on the Vikings?"
Oran then looked at the two of them again, "After the territory is unified, I will establish a small-scale 'palace', Southamp, find a time, patrol the neighborhood, and pick a favorite manor as your village leader." ”
The so-called palace will have various "chief ministers", which symbolizes the improvement of the strength of the territory.
"Your Excellency!"
Southamp didn't expect this day to come so quickly, and she didn't know what to say for a while.
I can only say that I will do my best to handle this matter well.
A small knight's collar can't scrape much oil and water, but it can be used as a reward, and the loyalty harvested is often the life of a generation.
Moreover, Southamp has no descendants, and after his death, the territory is also returned to Oran, who feels that it is not sealed.
The Titan watched and learned one more thing.
A person who does not have "any attachment", if he is not even afraid of death, it is difficult to buy and control.
But if you add new weaknesses and concerns to this person, it will be different.
This is called "making something out of nothing".
And why should this matter be left to Uncle Southamp?
And then he said that he wanted to give the territory?
On the one hand, it shows the trust of the lord, and on the other hand, it is used as a reason to reward the territory and make Uncle Southamp more loyal?
The little fat man's eyes rolled.
As long as people start to think with their brains, their wisdom will grow and improve.
One day of thinking, there will be a day of comprehension and improvement, day by day, day by day, one day, you can be on your own.
Before the Titan went down, Orlan waved him over, and then took out a packet of "hard candy".
This is what Orlan uses to drink tea for flavoring, and it is given to the Titan at this moment.
"You did a good job just now." Oran smiled.
He eats both men and women, seduces the appearance of a master, and if he is friendly to a person, it feels like a fresh breeze blowing through his face in the hot summer season, which is always very comfortable.
The Titan excitedly accepted the lord's gift and nodded his head.
I immediately forgot about the "independent thinking" just now, and I only had "Long live Your Excellency" in my heart.
Because the benefits of this time are given to themselves.
When the two left, Orlan smiled and rubbed the power ring.
"A bag of sugar, a piece of land, a child, buy the loyalty of three people for a period of time in the future, cheap!"
Where will you hit the next piece of land?
Orlan would love to hit the Viking settlement in the north, because here are soft persimmons, easy to pinch.
But a treaty with Ella is also imminent, and he hasn't figured out a good solution yet.
There is also money and food, these two things, which also give him a headache.
Paper and printing, these two technologies, he had been trying to recall before, but the knowledge and technology of the craftsmen in the field were too backward and barren, although according to his own description, a little progress was made, but the results were not great.
Oran then returned to his tent and waited for time to pass.
When noon came, Tuman sent for him and said that he was ready.
Then, a team of White Eagles easily entered the castle through the side door, and after a while, more and more people entered.
Of course, there was a slight resistance to this process...... There will be several bodies separated.
