Chapter 68: I Want Them to Enjoy the Glory They Deserve! (Ask for votes)
"No one expected that the orcs would attack so fiercely this time, and even Baron Archie's territory was breached, and it was not easy for us to hold on under such circumstances."
Delai got up and poured Ryan a cup of hot water and continued, "Although the loss is great, we have plenty of time to recuperate in the coming year.
After all, the population of the territory has grown to more than 20,000 people now, and as long as the integration is fast, it will soon be able to ease up. ”
Speaking of which, Ryan's mood was a little better, because of the concentration of the population in the city in advance, plus the refugees absorbed, the population of the territory not only did not decrease, but returned to last year's level.
That orc invasion, which had caused Kanna to lose a quarter of its population due to the incompetence of the idiot lord, had only now recovered.
"What happened to the bodies of the fallen soldiers?" Closing the book in his hand, Ryan suddenly remembered that he had been asleep for days, and the body should be disposed of.
"The bodies were intact and cremated separately after confirming their names and places of origin, and the rest were cremated together after they were sorted out, and the list was probably registered.
Now those urns are safeguarded and waiting for you to deal with them later. ”
Originally, Delai was able to call the shots about these things, and the previous practice was nothing more than letting the family claim it, and if no one claimed it, they would dig a pit and bury it.
This is quite benevolent, most of the lords' practice is to throw them in mass graves without cremation, and the cremation is disposed of casually, and in the eyes of the high nobles, they are not much more noble than cattle and sheep.
For example, Delai, who is still looking for an urn to put it in, is already very merciful in the entire aristocratic circle.
The reason why I stayed until now was to see what Ryan meant, because his subconscious felt that Ryan would do something that was difficult for ordinary people to understand, just like the previous times.
Hearing this, Ryan nodded and said, "They are all warriors who shed blood and sacrificed for the territory, notify their relatives, and those who are willing to take it back will come and claim it."
Unclaimed ......"
He muttered slightly, "Karl is buried in the wasteland outside the south of the city, near the Linton River, right?" ”
Karl was the first soldier to die in the forest when they first arrived in the territory, and his body was buried outside the city by Ryan, and a small funeral was organized.
It was also the first time that Delai had seen a nobleman mourn a fallen soldier.
Seeing that Delai nodded, he said solemnly and solemnly: "I want to build a heroic soul cemetery there, concentrate on burying these warriors who shed blood and sacrificed for the territory, and send people to sprinkle and sacrifice every year, so that everyone can remember their efforts."
I will give them a great funeral, give them the glory and treatment they deserve, and declare it to all the people.
Moreover, I decided to give five Kindler to every soldier who died in battle, three Kindler to those who were seriously injured and disabled, and one Kindler to those who were unwilling to retire, and to stay in the army and arrange some idle work. ”
Delai's eyes widened when he heard this, although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, but after hearing it, it was still so unbelievable.
funerals are held for the militia, and bereavement pensions are also distributed......
This is unique in the entire kingdom of Tistan!
Glory has nothing to do with ordinary people since ancient times, it is a privilege that belongs only to the aristocratic class, and now, Ryan is actually trying to make a group of militiamen, who are as small as dust in this world, enjoy that kind of glory like nobles!
As a reserve army of nobles, Drye should have opposed such a ridiculous decision, but for some reason, when he saw Ryan's determined eyes.
His heart was inexplicably touched, and a feeling that had never been felt before filled his chest. Civilians can also enjoy the glory they deserve...... Isn't this what Ryan once told him, building a different territory......
"Yes, I'll arrange it immediately." In the end, he did not object, and made the first decision that did not conform to his own class.
"Well, let's put all the surrounding pieces into it, and finish it as soon as possible, my request is very simple, just look solemn and atmospheric."
Ryan nodded, took a sip of hot water, and found that Delay was still there, and couldn't help but say a little strangely: "Is there anything else?" ”
"That pension is a big amount, take out this money, and it will be difficult for you to do anything later."
Delai's tone was a little resentful, this big hand waved and thousands of Jindel were spent, how could he get the money if there was any action in the future?
It's really not a good family to know that firewood and rice are expensive, and they are lavish.
When Ryan heard this, he said with some meaning: "This money can't just be given by us......
Canon has been living in fear all day since the last liquidation, he didn't think about transferring his family property and running away, but now it is still wartime management, and several attempts have been blocked.
It's not like he hasn't spent money on bribes, but that damn city gate officer is a greedy guy who collects money but doesn't do anything, and the key is that he can't do anything about him.
In this way, he stayed at home for three days in fear, for fear that the lord or those cultists would send someone to settle the score.
Originally, he could have chosen to defect to the lord and give everything in exchange for his personal safety.
The main thing is that he doesn't know if the lord is now or if he is the previous lord, and the news he found out is that he has been in a coma, which makes him panic, for fear that Ryan will be controlled, and it will really be his death at that time.
Just when he was nervous, the news of the lord's invitation to the banquet came, which once again made him entangled and struggling.
"Oh~ My Lord of Light, what the hell should I do?" Canon walked uneasily around the room, and it wasn't until evening came that he gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
"No matter what, you can't hide! Butler, take out my dress. ”
……
Even more worried than Canon were Amesa and Mirsa, who, unlike Canon, already knew about the failure of the operation and the escape of the executor, and were 10,000 reluctant to Ryan's banquet, for fear that he would find out something.
It's just that like Canon, they also have no choice, either to fight with Ryan vigorously and be ruthlessly suppressed, or to obediently go to the feast.
As long as you don't have a watt in your head, you should know how to choose.
They weren't the only ones who received the news, but all merchants who had some financial status in the Kanna Territory were within the scope of Lane's invitation.
As night fell, the castle, which had been silent for a long time, began to become lively, and the banquet was arranged on the first floor, which had already begun to be busy.
Bright candlelight, long tables covered with snow-white tablecloths, and a variety of dishes are set up one after another......
Everything was going on in a lively and orderly manner, but Ryan didn't change into his dress, but casually dressed in a gorgeous dress, quietly waiting for his prey to come to the door......
