0392 Fight a war and make a windfall
defeated the opponent's battle line, and Hardy knew that this war was won by his side.
He told Abner to take 3,000 players and march directly to the rear of the eastern front, according to the information provided by Prince Hammans.
If successful...... This ridiculous war will be over in fifteen days.
A big win.
Even if the surprise attack is not successful, it can force the opponent to retreat, or even retreat.
Also a victory.
As for Tiao Tiao and Ibuprofen, they took their men and guarded the nearly 40,000 prisoners of war.
Fortunately, the other side's logistics troops were also cut off and grabbed a large amount of food.
Otherwise, these people are really hard to raise.
Tiao Tiao turned on the live broadcast, looked at the prisoners in the depression, and said with a smile: "Old Tie, 40,000 prisoners of war, this time we have made a fortune, and I don't know how much Hadi will reward us." β
There was a burst of speculation in the live broadcast room.
Ibuprofen was not far away, and it also started live broadcasting, saying something similar.
There are a large number of netizens watching both live broadcast rooms.
Hardy was in the tent, chatting with the three captives.
Sotu looked at Hadi and asked, "Your Excellency, how did you manage so many undead?" They are unruly and prone to rebellion. β
"It's very simple, the undead are the undead." Hardy chuckled, "Let them manage themselves, I just need to take care of the most important leaders." β
"It's a really good idea." Sotu nodded repeatedly.
I think Hardy is such a genius.
But in essence, this is just a faΓ§ade.
It's true that Hardy lets players manage players, but the problem is that what Hardy does is recognized by players.
He does not bully civilians, works hard to manage the territory, strictly enforces the law, and gives all NPCs in the territory a relatively good living environment.
Such a lord, from the perspective of the feudal era, is already at the level of a 'good man'.
Players also expressed understanding, identified with Hardy's identity, and were willing to accept his employment.
But the others ...... Especially the kind of aristocracy who loves to insult ordinary people from time to time, it is impossible to have this kind of treatment.
The young prince looked at Hardy with envy and jealousy in his eyes.
He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Lord Hardy, I heard that you are a Nightmare Knight?" β
"Yes."
"How do I activate the Nightmare Saddle?" He asked.
"You have too?"
"There is indeed a saddle in the royal family."
The Nightmare Saddle is a great thing, but it's not out of print.
In general, there are three or four in each country.
After all, in several human-demon wars, there were also many nightmare knights who died in battle, and then the nightmare saddle fell into the human world.
Hardy said: "It's really not difficult, it's okay to have strong mental power, or your soul fluctuations can arouse the nightmare's interest." β
"It's as simple as that?" The prince of Hammans, his face full of disbelief.
Hardy shook his head: "It's really simple. β
In fact, it is still the same sentence, those who are difficult will not, and those who will will not be difficult.
As long as your mental strength is up to the standard, you can do anything.
If your mental power is not up to standard, you won't be able to do anything unless the nightmare likes you.
"Your Royal Highness, if you are willing to take the Nightmare Saddle as a ransom, I can forgive you personally, as well as ten thousand soldiers, the ransom." Hardy said suddenly.
The prince of Hamans, the eldest prince, subconsciously took a deep breath, and then said, "Can you have more?" β
"Then forget it." Hardy shook her head.
The Nightmare Saddle is valuable, but it's worthless.
It depends on whether you can activate it, or the nightmare you contracted, whether it is strong or not, your own potential, and so on.
If it's Hardy's kind, it's worth a lot.
If it's the kind of bantam that is not in the contract, it is not valuable.
"Let me think about it for two days, okay?"
Hardy nodded.
Next, Hardy had people stationed in the same place.
There weren't many soldiers he brought with him, more than 5,000 in total, and 3,000 were left to carry out a sneak attack.
Now he has more than 2,000 people in his hands, and he has to take care of nearly 40,000 prisoners, and it is impossible to attack again.
Seeing that the battle outside the city was decided, Lloyd George, the lord of Amberdo City, came out with dozens of personal guards.
He looked at Suotu and the others, his eyes were full of anger, but he didn't pounce on them, and fought desperately with the three of them.
Because George knew that the three were Hardy's prisoners of war, the latter's 'property', and he was not qualified to deal with them.
"Lord Hardy, have you absorbed that arm?"
George looked at Hardy, and he felt a familiar coercion on the other side, just like his grandfather, who had been dead for many years.
Hardy nodded.
He was silent for a long time, his eyes full of envy.
In fact, George didn't have much sincerity in giving away the blue dragon arm.
Because that thing doesn't have any effect on their family.
His grandfather did absorb the blue dragon arm, but when his grandfather died, the corpse turned to ashes and the blue dragon arm reappeared.
And his grandfather had a very short lifespan, before he was thirty-two years old, and he died.
Not from disease, but from overheating of the blood.
This thing is actually a curse for their family.
"Your Excellency Hardy, can you come out and talk?" George whispered.
Hardy looked at the three people in the tent, nodded, and walked out.
The two walked farther away from the tent.
Then George looked at Hardy and said, "Your Excellency, how effective is the blue dragon arm?" β
"Okay." Hardy smiled and said, "Although it is not as powerful as I imagined, it does have an effect." β
When George heard this, he was even more envious, and then he said, "Your Excellency Hardy, let's make a deal." β
"What deal?"
"I don't need much, just give me three thousand captives." George's expression was a little heartbroken, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and said, "I can give you another blue dragon arm." β
Hardy was a little surprised: "You still have the organs of the blue dragon?" β
"There's only one last arm left."
Hardy touched his chin in thought.
In fact, he had already agreed in his heart, but he couldn't agree too quickly to trade this thing.
He thought for a moment and said, "What about two thousand soldiers?" I have promised the people of Hammans that if the ransom is paid, they will all go back. Three thousand is a bit too much, I'm afraid they have an opinion. β
"They are just prisoners of war, how dare they have an opinion."
Hardy laughed, "But they give money." β
Lloyd-George took a deep breath and said, "That's two thousand." β
"Deal!" Hardy laughed heartily.
Prisoners of war are of great use.
That is, it can be used as labor,
If tamed, you can also recruit soldiers.
And if you are ruthless, you can even treat them as 'war merits'.
It depends on what your needs are.
Looking at George's back in the distance, Hardy smiled.
This Lloyd-George, should be lying.
In their home, there should be other parts of the blue dragon.
But Hardy is not the kind of person who takes it by force...... The George family is not the kind of family that is very powerful, and there will always be times when you need help from others.
At that point, Hardy felt that he would just need to make another move.
Slowly trade all the blue dragon parts in George's house.
Really...... War is a good time to make a windfall.
Hardy's eyes narrowed. (End of chapter)
