In the courtyard, Tia kept counting the old Locke who was standing on the other side with his head bowed, "How can you still give the broken potatoes and the rice potatoes that are left for I don't know how many days?"

"It's just an animal, I didn't know it was so delicate. Old Locke quibbled.

"Do you think it's a donkey?" Tia saw that old Locke dared to talk back, and his voice became louder.

Locke twitched speechlessly, the cattle in the village, such as cows, pigs, etc., really eat everything, not to mention the bad food, that is, rotten grass roots, dry bark, they all chew vigorously.

But it's a domesticated animal, and the war horse is different.

As far as Locke knew, his horse was usually tended by a baron's special breeder, and it ate a mixture of wheat and soybeans, which was better than that of the servants in the army.

In addition to the value of the horses themselves, the cost of taking care of these horses is not a small amount.

It is also Baron Kaidozi, who can afford a cavalry squadron with the big tree of Marquis Sandru on his back, and there are very few other barons, even viscounts, who can form cavalry.

"It's okay, I'll just find someone to look at it, I can't die. Locke pulled the two men who were arguing.

"You won't have to lose money, will you?" asked Old Locke, bending his waist and taking Locke aside.

"No!" Locke laughed, this horse just had a bad stomach, and it wasn't a major injury, Locke didn't need to find someone to see it, it was estimated that after half a day, he would recover by night.

Each of the war horses that survived on the battlefield had extremely strong vitality, and Locke's horse was the best among them.

He couldn't ride to town, and Locke didn't bother to go, so his mission was done anyway, so he just waited in the village for Hans and them to come back.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Hans and Kane returned from a group of Maple Leaf Village soldiers.

"How's it going, Uncle Yoshak, are they back in town too?" asked Locke.

"It's all back!" replied Hans.

Kane on the other side exclaimed, "These opponents are too rubbish, and I haven't taken it seriously yet, so I'm all lying down." ”

"That's it, that 'Boulder Brother', one of them was pinched to death by my brother. "Hank may have been following Kane for a long time, and even the tone of his speech is very similar.

"What about you, have you made a gain?" Locke asked Hank with a rare amusement.

Hank became shy at this moment, and after a long time of confusion, he said, "No, before it was my turn to do anything, my brother and they took down all those thieves." ”

"Haha... It caused everyone around him to laugh.

Kane's words are half-truths, not that it is not his turn to make a move, but that he will not be allowed to make a move at all.

Hans was still very protective of his brother, Hank had only been in the army for a few months, and he had not even participated in a serious battle, so how could Hans let him take risks.

On the other hand, Hank doesn't necessarily dare to go up and fight for his life, this guy has a disadvantage in addition to being flamboyant, which is timidity.

But you don't need to be a scout, and Kane didn't give up coaching Hank because of his minor problems.

In this operation, the soldiers of Mine Town did not suffer any losses, but more than a dozen soldiers were slightly injured due to carelessness.

This slight injury was not considered an injury by the civilians of the Mine Town, who had never seen a 'big scene', for example, one of the veterans did not take the scratch on his arm seriously at all.

These three thieves were the three largest in the vicinity of Mine Town, and in just a day and a half, they were swept away by the returning soldiers, causing the remaining bands of thieves large and small to be alarmed.

Some shrewd leaders have quietly moved to other noble territories with their brothers.

At present, the local nobles of Del Province have returned with the main force led by Baron Kaidozi, and the remaining nobles are still suppressing the uprising around Charlotte.

Leaving Kaidoqiling, there are places where they are left to be chic, but they just need to regain territory.

And some thieves who are not very bright and want to fight the soldiers led by Kaido are sad.

For a week, Locke spent almost half of his time on horseback, and the soldiers of Mine Town felt as if they had returned to the days when they fought in Charlotte, with fragile lives passing from their swords every day.

Holding a bright yellow sword, he wiped the neck of the last thief he was carrying, and Locke sheathed the bloodied sword.

This is a gang of bandits gathered on a mountain range between Mine Town and Luoxia Town, and it is also the farthest group of bandits in the radiation range of Mine Town.

This week, the soldiers of the mine town almost washed the blood around the mine town, and the countless thieves who had been rampant here for several years were wiped out by the soldiers one by one, except for those who found that the wind was not in the right direction, and now only a few fish that slipped through the net were hiding in the shadows and shivering.

This is the last goal.

"Let's go!" Locke beckoned, and the cavalry turned on their horses and followed Locke with large bags of booty towards the Mine Town.

Old Billy had never felt the air he breathed so fresh as he did now, and the gray forces that pressed on the civilians of Mine Town had been wiped out within a week.

The soldiers brought back not only a safe living environment, but also a lot of wealth.

As the mayor of the town, many of Billy Sr.'s relatives relied on him and opened some stores in the town.

In the previous years, because the war took away a large number of laborers, people did not have enough to eat, and the level of consumption was very low, these shops could only guarantee not to lose money, but now, especially this week, these merchants have made a lot of money.

The townspeople of the mining town, plus the villagers of the village to which they belong, only have more than 2,000 people, and in a few years, they have supported nearly 300 thieves, large and small, which shows how terrifying it is.

In the face of the wealth accumulated by these thieves, the soldiers who had just made a fortune in Charlotte were not eyed, but the townspeople of Mine Town were different, and they were dazzled by the accumulation of copper.

Yes, it's the copper delek, which is currently the main currency in circulation in the mining town, this small place.

As for Yindelek, if you go to the store to buy something, it is likely that the seller will have a hard time even getting change.

Locke ignored the spoils, and he might still have some interest in exchanging these bronze deles for silver dele.

Kaidoqi's continuous anti-bandit operation for more than a week really shocked the bandit gangs in the territory that had been entrenched for many years.

Not only Mine Town, but also Loki Town, Harvest Town, and Luoxia Town are also prosperous, and Kaidoqi led the soldiers from the front line to teach these thieves who can only bully and bully civilians a vivid lesson, and tuition is their life.

Several towns and subordinate villages are the central point, radiating two hundred miles outward, and there is hardly a den of thieves gathering and gathering.

There are only some remote areas in the territory where thieves still exist.

Kaidoqi's atmosphere was shocked, and overnight, every family did not close their doors at night.

Seeing this, some of the commoners in the other realms were deeply affected by this, and secretly fled to settle in Kaidozi, and the baron warmly welcomed this, and settled every civilian who defected.

The war that lasted for five years, not only Kaidoqi, but also the young and middle-aged labor force of the entire kingdom suffered great losses, at this time, talent is fundamental, the more people, the more prosperous the territory will be.

In order not to make the Kaidozi domain, which was about to expand into the territory of the viscount, fall into the embarrassing situation of a small number of people, Baron Kaidozi waved his hoe and dug into the corner of the nobleman next door.

In fact, the baron's order to suppress the bandits was not only for the sake of stability in the territory, but also for the sake of driving these thieves who were in trouble to the territories of other nobles.

The commoners living under the rule of other nobles saw that Kaidoqi was stable and prosperous, while the place where he stayed was smoky and dangerous, and he could make a decision as long as he was not stupid.

In the month that followed, there was a wave of immigration in other aristocratic territories around Kaidozi.

Many civilians risked being imprisoned and hanged by their lords to go to Kaidoqi to enjoy a quiet life.

The changes in the entire territory, Locke's vision is not so high, he can't see that extent, he has been very busy lately, what are you busy with, busy drinking wine.

Before the soldiers returned, the ratio of men to women of appropriate age was 1:5, because almost all the young and middle-aged people went to join the army.

Now, when the soldiers return, the ratio of men to women of appropriate age has changed to 1:3.

At present, there are more than 2,000 civilians in the mining town, and the number of people who have reached the age of marriage is about 500, while there are less than 200 men, and the rest are all women.

At least 200 girls in the mine town will not be able to marry, why, because the men who should have been their husbands have died on the front line.

Don't look at the soldiers in Mine Town after they returned from the front line, Mine Town has always been in a jubilant atmosphere, but before that, it has always been dead silent.

From the beginning of the mine town five years ago to the end of the war this year, more than 300 young and middle-aged people have joined the army one after another, and only about 100 people have returned so far.

The mine town is harmonious and stable on the outside, but there are many bitter tears hidden inside.

And these returned soldiers are now all fragrant and sweet in the mining town.

Whether it is the rich waist bag or the innate advantage of being a man, the women of Mine Town are crazy about it.

Not to mention anything else, as far as Hans and his family are concerned, even the threshold is about to be broken, for nothing more than the family affairs of the two brothers Hans and Hank.

As for Locke, it was even more annoying.

He is now engaged to a soldier in Maple Leaf Village, because this soldier is also a cavalry squadron, and Locke is reasonably willing to participate.

"Good job!" Locke patted the soldier on the shoulder, because he was a member of the cavalry team and could have a mission at any time, this soldier could not be the groom's officer for the time being, so he could only get engaged first.

It's been at home for more than half a month, and Locke is going to see Xia Qian and them, but they haven't seen anything strange for more than half a month.

And Angelina, I don't know when she will return to China, she said she would come back soon, but she hasn't received any news yet.

Locke wouldn't admit it, he was stimulated by the recent frequent weddings in Mine Town, including Maple Leaf Village.

Although his parents didn't say it, Locke still saw in their eyes the desire for Locke to start a family as soon as possible. After all, when Locke was his age, Locke Sr. and Tia were already married.
