"Jack, you are really ready to face danger" Fulbin saw the sharpness of his youth from Jack's body, and recalled his heroic spirit when he was not afraid of danger, Fulbin sighed and asked Jack.
Nodding heavily, Jack stubbornly said, "Yes, I decided." ” Seeing that Jack was so insistent, Fubinn shook his head and didn't say anything more.
He knew in his heart that Jack had really grown up, and it might not be a bad thing for him to hone and hone at this age, not to mention that Fu Binen understood that Han Shuo would definitely take care of Jack and would definitely not let Jack get hurt.
Fu Binen's silence showed that he at least no longer objected, and when Jack looked at Han Shuo with anticipation, Han Shuo, who was half a head taller than Jack, came to him and patted Jack's shoulder, and said sincerely: "Don't be in a hurry to make a decision yet, you stay in Brettel City for a few days for the time being, and tell me when you think clearly." ” During this time, Breitl City will not be peaceful, maybe when Jack really sees the cruelty of war, he will automatically dispel this thought, Han Shuo thought to himself.
After that, Han Shuo didn't continue to talk about this topic with Jack, but instead became interested in the girl named Jessica that Jack liked, and asked some things about this girl.
From Jack's rambling narration, Han Shuo knew that this girl named Jessica was the daughter of a small nobleman, and her father came to meet Jack in the Buster Firm when he was doing business with the Buster Chamber of Commerce.
So far, Jack has a one-sided crush, but Jack, who is in Buster's accounting room, naturally can't attract the attention of this noble daughter, not to mention that Jack doesn't have any proud capital at least on the surface except for a fat body.
Jessica's request for the object was also obtained from Jessica's mouth during Jack's side knock, in this aristocratic continent of Qiao, even Phoebe, the owner of the Buster Chamber of Commerce, was not very accepted by the upper class, let alone his small account office Therefore, on the one hand, out of his fanatical admiration for Jessica, on the other hand, perhaps Jack was really self-motivated, so he had the hope of using Han Shuo to help him.
The banquet was at home in a joyful anger, the civilians outside the City Lord's Mansion who heard the news were still unwilling to disperse, the temptation of free food was beyond Han Shuo's imagination, this time the recruited servants were busy all day and could not supply them, and it was not until the sun set and night was about to fall, that those civilians of Brettel City were dispersed under the friendly persuasion of the knights.
The moon that disappeared last night was extremely bright tonight, as if he wanted to make up for his laziness last night, standing on the top of the highest clock tower in the City Lord's Mansion, Han Shuo looked down at Brettel City, which was shrouded in misty moonlight.
The vast city of Brettel covers a huge area, with many houses between the four gates, which can accommodate a million people.
The original purpose of building Breitl City was to serve as the foundation point for the invasion of the Seven Duchies, even after the vicissitudes and humiliation, Breitl City still has a proud city height, if it were not for the repeated failures in the invasion of the Seven Duchies and the fatal destruction of the Seven Duchies' coalition forces, Breitl City would probably become one of the strongest cities in the Lancelot Empire.
A large number of gold coins were put into it, and the renovated Brettel City was reinforced and heightened by Han Shuo at no expense, and the six magic crystal cannons placed on the city wall were extremely deterrent, and now more chariot stone machines were filled to the city wall that had been vacant, and all kinds of large firepower equipment were erected.
Before you know it, Brettel City, a huge war machine that should have been hideous, began to slowly show its fangs after investing millions of gold coins, ready to crush all the arrogant people who dared to attack.
In the direction of Hailan City, a brigade of 1,000 men gradually returned, these brigade weapons belonging to Dox were bright and strong, compared to the weapons of those miscellaneous bandits last night, each long sword was worth at least three gold coins, and the armor and helmet were all forged from the finest steel, worth five gold coins.
With the addition of sharp weapons such as crossbows and daggers, the equipment on each soldier was worth ten gold coins, but these soldiers who were supposed to be knights temporarily became infantry due to the lack of war horses.
War horses are relatively scarce resources even in the Lancelot Empire, but the Seven Duchies are good at raising war horses, but unfortunately Han Shuo has no way to acquire them.
A thousand soldiers under the leadership of Dox on the war horse, orderly towards the city of Brettle, these people obviously experienced one battle after another, one by one with a cold expression, there was a subtle madness in their eyes, although the armor on their bodies and the weapons in their hands were polished, but the blood stains on the cloth under the breastplate were very obvious.
Han Shuo, who had climbed high and looked into the distance, looked at Dox from the highest place in the City Lord's Mansion for a while, and whispered in satisfaction: "In three days, the twelve bandits have been wiped out, and a thousand soldiers have returned nine hundred and sixty, and there are only forty dead, and it is really a talent."
Half an hour later, Dox, who had changed into clean clothes, went to the City Lord's Mansion under the bright moonlight and was received by Han Shuo in his living room.
"Dox, good job, are all twelve bandits destroyed?"
Han Shuo looked at Dox who was on one knee and asked with a smile.
Shaking his head, Dox looked up at Han Shuo and said, "Lord Earl, there are still more than seven hundred people alive. ” Frowning, Han Shuo didn't rush to get Dox to stand up, his fingers unconsciously tapped on the armrest of the chair, squinted at Dox, and asked, "Dox, you brought a thousand soldiers over, you shouldn't have let seven hundred robbers escape with your means?"
Dokes, who looked up at Han Shuo, replied expressionlessly: "Lord Earl, the twelve bandits have all been wiped out, and all obstacles from Hailan City to Brettel City have been removed.
It's just that the villain thinks that blind killing is not a good way, and the seven hundred robbers are not guilty of death, and they are also forced to do nothing for their livelihood.
The villain thinks that if the adults want to develop the city of Brettel as quickly as possible, they must add some appropriate amount of softness to the sharp weapon of killing, and these people who have lost the leader of the bandits are easy to tame, and once they are truly convinced of the adults, they can also become loyal and brave warriors in the hands of the adults. ” As soon as Dox said this, Han Shuo was silent for a while, looked at Dox and nodded slowly, and said, "Dox, what you said is right, it is true that I have not considered it."
Well, you have subdued all the 700 robbers, but I didn't see them."
Nodding, Dox still knelt down on one knee in front of Han Shuo before Han Shuo had no order, and said respectfully, "Yes, all seven hundred and forty-two robbers have returned and are cleaning the battlefield under my orders.
My lord, the road from Hailan City to Brettel City is full of decomposing corpses of refugees, and this environment does not seem to take advantage of the development of Brettel City, so I ordered the robbers to clean up all the things that were in sight along the way. ” "Very well, Dox, you're doing a great job.
Hmm, by the way, if all your people return, aren't you afraid that those robbers will run away" Han Shuo first exclaimed, and then asked suspiciously.
"My lord doesn't know, those robbers are not much better than the refugees, I just promised them some treatment of ordinary soldiers in Brettel City, and they agreed without any hesitation."
Dox replied, after a pause, he took out a money bag and handed it to Han Shuo with both hands, "The twelve bandits got a total of thirty-seven thousand gold coins, and some gold, silver, and jade ores were about ten thousand gold coins, which were brought back to the treasury by the soldiers.
As for the worthless weapons, because they were not of much value and heavy weight, they were hoarded in a robber's den for the time being, and I thought there was no need to bring them back. ” "Good, very good, you think very thoughtfully.
Get up, I will take a big credit to you this time, as long as you continue to do this, you will be able to get what you need sooner or later" Han Shuo looked at Dox deeply, and said: "Brett City is a stage for you, it seems that you have gradually adapted to your role, the Seven Duchies have not been taken by our empire many times, but since we are standing here, we must seize this opportunity that can make us soar at all costs, and we will show them what those mediocre people in the empire can't do." ” "The villain swears to follow the adults to the death," Dox snorted, straightening his spine in front of Han Shuo, like another invincible Demon Slayer.
"Okay, you go down, you can take these gold coins for the time being, just when you equip the more than 700 new soldiers with weapons and armor."
Han Shuo motioned for Dox to leave, and when Dox left, Han Shuo fell into deep thought, thinking about the appropriate amount of tenderness that Dox had said earlier, and felt that Dox's words did have some truth.
The second day, early in the morning.
Dick hurriedly came to see Han Shuo and reported to Han Shuo: "My lord, several big bandits of the same size as Tu Luoda are currently gathered in a dense forest twenty miles in front of Brettel City, the villain received this news from a member of the dark curtain who was on a mission in the Seven Duchies, and I heard that this time there are a total of fifteen thousand bandits in total, and they are ready to go to our city to ransack wildly. ” "It's time to come," Han Shuo snorted coldly and said, "You sent people to pay close attention to their whereabouts, the bandits of fifteen thousand people, this will be the first real challenge to Brettel City" "My lord, do you want to inform the mountain leader that the mountain leader is defending the city with 3,000 soldiers in Brettel alone, this time it is too dangerous, and the mountain leader may help us," Dick suggested.
Shaking his head, Han Shuo said, "Don't do it for the time being, this is a test for us, whether we can make them honest in the future depends on the results of this battle."
Hmph, although we only have more than 3,000 soldiers, the current city of Brettel is no longer the original broken city wall, I smashed so many gold coins into it, how can Bretl City be so easy to break. ” The reason why Han Shuo dared to say this was that the soldiers who were hiding on the tall city wall to wait for work could use the chariots with high firepower and other equipment to bombard, and the other six magic crystal cannons were not vegetarians.
At worst, Han Shuo could also summon an army of immortals to participate in the battle, and Han Shuo believed that it would not be so easy for the 15,000-strong bandits to break through the current Brettel City.
Before I knew it, the whole city of Brettel had been put under martial law, and there were often soldiers dragging huge stones on the streets, but the huge chariots and magic crystal cannons that civilians had seen every day recently were pulled behind by the gray cloth for some reason, as if they were afraid of being discovered.
For this new city lord, the civilians have gradually become more interested in this new city lord from the beginning of indifference.
The last time the bandits of Tari Mountain were annihilated, and the news of the destruction of more than a dozen bandits between Hailan City and Bretel City, had already spread throughout Breitl City under deliberate propaganda.
In addition, yesterday's food festival, the endless supply of food sent from the city lord's mansion made the civilians in the city feast, and they gradually talked about the resistance of this trust in the city lord.

It's just that for them, who are accustomed to the betrayal of the city lord at a critical time, before the real crisis arrives, it is still unknown whether this new city lord can stand the test and be trustworthy.
Therefore, these civilians have not really made friends with the new city lord, but only silently watched the changes in Breitl City with an observant gaze.
Another day passed, and all four gates of Breitl were closed, and no merchant or civilian was allowed to leave.
The sparse soldiers on the four city gates looked vigilant one by one, and several small groups of knights in the city rode war horses back and forth without stopping.
Although these knights did not say much, the people of Breitl City, who had experienced the pain of war, had already smelled a familiar smell from these traces.
War is coming To be continued:
