Chapter Ninety-Two: Returning Safely 3

The squire who came to Ed urged him, and Shanshan, a young man who was introspective, joined the meeting and was glared at by Delia slightly, in fact, these things of post-war reconstruction have nothing to do with Ed, just to show respect for the knight who the commander trusts the most, everyone has been waiting.

"The next item, as is customary, is to be given to all wealthy merchants with a fortune of more than 100,000 gold coins by a war contribution, which will be used to pay for the bereavement of all ordinary soldiers who have died in battle, and for the subsequent repair of all public buildings. ”

An official Ed didn't know stood tremblingly in the middle of the hall with a booklet in his hand, reporting to Delia and the knights.

"What is the payment standard for donations?"

"This, about one-fifth to one-half of his net worth, and I would like to ask your lord to decide. ”

Delia looked at the left and right, and Howard on the side was lazily beating his waist, receiving the gaze, and raised his hand to ask the commander to decide, he had no opinion.

The knight Ed who was sitting on the other side also knew that it was the Knight Stanley, the head defender of Ovaré City that he met last night, and he was present in place of Hoover, the former supreme knight of Ovaré City, who had not recovered from his serious injuries.

The earth snake also gave face to the strong dragon, and also lowered his eyelids, and agreed to the supreme power that Di Lia decided on her own.

"Setting too high is not conducive to the development of Ovare in the future, after all, without these rich people doing business, the city would not be so prosperous, but setting too low is sorry for those ordinary soldiers who died in battle......"

Seeing Di Liya muttering to herself, it seemed a little difficult to choose. Howard next to him spoke, "Hah! If you want me to say it's okay to set the heights directly, those merchants don't make money from Ovare. What's so strange about letting them spit out something, there will be the next batch when this group of people is gone, and as long as the city is still there, there will be no shortage of those greedy guys!"

"Indeed, the killings in this battle were too heavy, and there were hardly too many Ingier knights captured as prisoners, so there was no need to think about the ransom. There is still a gap in distributing it to the knights who go out to fight as rewards, and if you don't get a sum of money from those silverfish in the city at this time, it will only be more troublesome in the future. ”

Stanley, on the other side, also found the opportunity to tactfully express the views of the native knights. When it comes to killing too much, he doesn't forget to glance up at Ed.

"Hey, if you don't have money, you don't have money, look at what I'm doing!"

Finding, like Stanley, talked about the ransom less. Many knights around him threw strange glances at him. There seemed to be a little grudge, and Ed muttered in his heart, inexplicable.

In the end, Delia still didn't make a decision immediately, when it came to military expenses, she had to discuss it with her fellow deacon Andre, and then everyone discussed more than ten issues one after another, just when Ed was bored, someone outside the door came to report that the soldiers who had gone out to fight against the fortress of the Ingir people had returned.

Hear this. Ed was the first to jump, along with Delia. Without delay, I rushed outside to greet him.

Walking through the main roads of the city, which were still affected by the war and had many damages, Ed saw at a glance that the five hundred cavalry he had brought out were walking in order.

The young man rushed forward excitedly, and at the same time glanced around, why was Will's guy not there, and there were not many other knights.

"General, fortunately, we have taken the enemy's castle, rested in it last night, and rushed back early this morning!"

A captain hand-picked by Ed took the lead in jumping off the horse and half-kneeling to salute the oncoming Ed, with a little excitement and pride in his voice.

The cavalrymen next to them also jumped down at the same time, and seeing that their main general was safe and sound, everyone was also uncontrollable.

"Haha, it's good that you come back safely, and lo and behold, I'm right, let the people of this city come out and welcome you. Ed said, pointing around at the citizens who had heard the news and were watching.

Then he stepped aside and put the real commander Di Liya in the first place, he was still a little excited just now, but fortunately his companions would not blame him.

Delia lifted up several leading soldiers who had fallen to their knees.

"Holy Maiden, I, my hands are dirty, don't ......"

When the other party saw the spiritual sustenance in his mind, he was excited and didn't choose to speak, and wanted to withdraw his hand several times, but he was afraid of hurting this pure angel.

Delia smiled at him, and instead grabbed their trembling hands and raised them high into the air, loudly announcing the great achievements of these people to the surroundings.

"Look, this is the warriors who are really guarding us, they have just taken the enemy's bridgehead fortress, from now on we will no longer have to worry about being beaten to the city by the Ingiers, at this moment we have really sounded the horn of counterattack, our Roland people will not be beaten again, we will fight back!"

"What, the castle outside the city that was occupied by the Ingirs has been brought down, so don't we have to worry about being breached by the enemy again?"

"Ha, then it goes without saying that if the Ingirs want to fight us, we must break through that line of defense now, and at least have a buffer time in the future. ”

"Really sent troops to fight down? Unbelievable, haven't we been pressed and beaten all these years?"

"It seems that this time it's a real game, and someone finally came forward to save us!"

After a brief silence around, there was an irrepressible buzz as people went from disbelief to ecstasy, and more and more citizens rushed to join in when they heard the news.

Delia and their victorious soldiers slowly marched through the streets, receiving the cheers of the people, and in the second half of the journey, the whole city was almost boiling, and the new commander first rescued and saved the city in time, and then took the enemy's fortress, what kind of rhythm is this? Is the day of suffering really about to pass?

The citizens who did not have much preparation took out the flowers used for the decoration of their homes and scattered them on the soldiers, the beautiful little girl took off the silk scarf around her neck and threw it to the handsome cavalry, and some people recognized that among the returning heroes were relatives of their own family, and they almost fainted with joy.

The procession lasted almost half a morning, and at one point the road they were on was blocked and it was difficult to enter, and it was not until noon that the people slowly dispersed, but almost all the taverns and restaurants in the city were full, and the people were reluctant to leave, and they were so excited to share their joy with each other.

Ed was genuinely happy for them at the end of the group, next to his companion Andre, who had always been meticulous and had been thrown flowers all over his body by a girl, but looked at the team with the same eagerness.

"Ed, it's your credit, Roland's horn for counterattack has really sounded, and the whole continent will focus on it!" (To be continued......)
