Chapter 7 The Wealth of Abduction

Augustine watched his men stuff the letter into a bird used to deliver the message, and there was a commotion outside, and then Augustine's face changed, a voice he had heard many times in the past ten days, and a bad premonition appeared in his heart.

"Your Majesty, a letter from Silver City. "A letter was carefully handed over to Augustine's hands.

After a few successive sounds, the letter was torn to pieces, and Augustine didn't even look at it: "Write a letter to the first two cities on Mo Xuan's route, telling them to guard against Mo Xuan." The subordinate didn't move, as if he wanted to say something.

"Why, do you want to disobey?" Augustine shouted angrily, throwing a glass of water at his subordinate.

The subordinates were scalded by the boiling water, and they didn't even dare to shout in pain, but just kowtowed again and again: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say." ”

Say. Augustine looked at his subordinate's bloodshot head, and his heart softened, and it was the old man who followed him.

"Your Majesty, after Silver Stone City, there is only one city left, calculate the time, Mo Xuan should also arrive. The subordinate raised his head and said cautiously.

"You. Augustine only felt a breath of air go up to his chest, and then softened again: "Forget it, go down!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty. The subordinates did not wipe the blood from their heads, and slowly retreated to the door with a bent waist.

The city lord of Silver Stone City carefully took out a letter from the leg of a flying bird and unfolded it: "Be careful of Mo Xuan, be careful of being deceived. Eight big characters unfolded in front of him.

"Poof. A mouthful of blood spurted out of the mouth of the Silver Stone City Lord, and the drifting blood mist dyed a crying nobleman in front of him red: "Your Majesty, it's too late!" the Silver Stone City Lord shouted and then fainted.

Leaving behind the stunned nobles and the letter that slowly fell to the ground.

"Hahaha. Atwood laughed maniacally: "I didn't expect that these nobles were so stupid that none of them noticed. ”

"Do you really think that the nobles in front have no time to inform these nobles behind?" Mo Xuan said with a smile on his face and a little thoughtful.

Atwood laughed, "Isn't it?" Atwood really didn't understand, if not, then why didn't he notify?

"If there is a pit in front of you and a person accidentally falls into it, if it is a soldier, he will notify his comrades to see if the enemy has fallen in. If he were a politician, he would pull his friends away without a trace and watch his political enemies fall in. If it was a nobleman, they would not be silent for the sake of face, and they would watch their relatives and friends fall in with their enemies, and then he would not be afraid of people laughing at him. Mo Xuan gestured in the air with a horsewhip.

Atwood was incredulous: "Your Lord, you mean, they did it on purpose. ”

"That's right, for a creature like a nobleman, face is above all else, and it is a very humiliating thing for one person to lose people, and a group of people to be ashamed of others will say that it is not that they are not careful enough, but that the enemy is too strong. Mo Xuan imitated the aristocratic tone that he had seen these days: "In a few days, there will be a large number of bards touting me in these places, do you believe it?"

Atwood's head was full of black lines: "Lord Viscount, are you kidding?"

"Otherwise, why aren't you a nobleman? It's because you can't understand the nobleman's mind. Mo Xuan made a sigh and drove the horse forward.

"Is what the Viscount said true? Atwood muttered to himself, fantasizing about his aristocratic style: "No, that's stupid." Atwood shuddered at the thought.

A large group of 40,000 people lined up in a long queue on the long road and were migrating.

On the hill next to the road, several figures were peeping.

"Big brother, should we do a vote. A fat man with a stupid face and a loud voice lay in the grass and said to the person who looked like a big brother next to him.

"Pop" The palm row made a loud sound on the fat meat, and the eldest brother took the lead to withdraw his big hand, looked at the red handprint on the fat man's body, and showed a satisfied smile: "I said that your fat body is getting more and more powerful, but your brain is getting more and more stupid." Did you see clearly, it was a team of tens of thousands of people, and I saw a magician in the middle, went to rob them and find death?"

"Then what should we do, big brother. "The subordinates behind the leader are in a hurry, they haven't come to the fat sheep for a while, and they finally came because the fat sheep is too powerful and have to let go, unwillingly.

The leader pondered for a moment and looked at the long line, and hesitated: "Follow first, see what they do." ”

After speaking, he quietly slipped away with the men behind him.

"Lord Viscount, I don't know how many waves we have let go, we don't need to be so soft-hearted about these bandits. "Atwood was very unhappy, as a knight by training, he had a quick attitude towards the creature of robbers and bandits.

"Our task now is to get these people in their entirety where we're going to be stationed, and we'll talk about the rest later. Mo Xuan said what he didn't know how many times he had said, looking at the faint incongruity in the mountains, his eyes showing a bloodthirsty light.

"Hurry up, everybody, we'll be at our destination in one day, and then we'll have a rest. Mo Xuan shouted loudly, responding to the crowd picking up speed again.

In the eyes of these people, Mo Xuan is a credible lord, the kind that says the same, and these days they eat and drink well, although they are tired of traveling, but they are all sitting in the carriage, and they do not have the slightest complaint in their hearts, but the long journey process makes them a little anxious, and now they hear that the destination is almost here, and the anxiety in their hearts is also swept away.

Looking at the crowd's behavior of speeding up, Mo Xuan knew that he already had a certain weight in the hearts of these people, and these people were the capital of his foothold in this area in the future.

In this team of almost 40,000 people, about half of them are old and weak women and children, and the rest are all adult strong men, and among these men, there are about a thousand soldiers abducted from various cities, and there are nearly two thousand barbarians loyal to him, as for twenty horsemen and a small number of magic apprentices, there are only a few dozen mercenaries hired by Sapphira, and the cities behind them have never been hired, because Mo Xuan has a better choice, compared to the more powerful but undisciplined mercenaries, the soldiers who are abducted from various cities are more easy to use。

In this way, after throwing away the special talents of various soldiers and mages, there are less than 15,000 people left, and among them, more than 10,000 peasants account for more than 10,000, and about 4,000 various craftsmen, these are the wealth that Mo Xuan has turned from various cities.

The other 10,000 or so peasants do not only know how to farm, most of them can do some kind of work, and their knowledge is not as professional as that of craftsmen, including those old and weak women and children are also used to doing all kinds of rough work, and it is not a problem for a few people to take on an adult.
