Chapter 218: Siege?


"Eh" When Han Qi understood the reason, he was a little speechless.I want to laugh a little too.The other party really didn't mean to admit Han Qi, in fact, although the baron was the lowest title, he didn't care about a small town.It's still the most outlying town.The real aristocracy who doesn't like the bustling city can be among the imperial capital is the real elite of the inner circle, otherwise it is just a name.The reason why the baron didn't see that the people around him looked defensive.It was because he heard the news that he had tortured and killed a thousand people of a dwarven race, and that no men, women, and children were spared."

It's spread so fast," Han Qi muttered to himself.Koons's body trembled, and he subconsciously retreated some distance.Han Qi glanced at him, was silent for a moment, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile and was dodged by him."

Huh."

Han Qi didn't say much, and walked forward slowly: "Then let's say that this place is taken over by me" Koons paused, nodded and spoke: "As the Grand Duke, there is only one territory of a marginal town.You can go back whenever you want. ”Han Qi nodded and asked suspiciously, "So."

Since it's my territory, what rights do I have?"

Looking at Koons, Han Qi leaned in: "Specific." ”Koons shook his head: "That's easy.First of all, the land is full of your people.Whatever they do, they have to pay taxes every year.In terms of coins, or direct delivery of grain.Of course, it stands to reason that you have to deal with disputes that arise with them.As well as protecting them from outside monsters, or outsiders.To put it bluntly, it's governance. ”Looking at Han Qi, who nodded, Koons was silent for a moment, and then said, "Actually, that's it."

The higher the title, the larger the territory.But the rank is just one person.If the territory is large, you can't manage it alone.You're going to have to find someone to manage it.Then the person who helps you manage it may not be the person who owns the territory.In addition to the nobles who own this land, it is the head of the territory who is responsible for managing it.Take care of all day-to-day matters. ”"Because I'm in a special situation."

Han Qi opened his mouth to signal: "So obviously I should have the territory of the Grand Duke, but there is only a small town.As the master, I can only manage it myself. ”Koons shook his head: "Not necessarily.It's just that there's only one place you want to manage yourself.But even if it's just one place, you can find someone to represent you.It's just that after paying the other party's salary, the taxes will all go to you. ”Han Qi squinted his eyes and looked at Koons: "So it's been half a year since I accepted Archduke Ronald.Who collects the taxes for me" Koons curled the corners of his mouth, as if mocking.However, thinking of Han Qi's ferocity, he coughed lightly and took it back: "No one cares about the taxes in the border area of Ronald Town. ”Looking around, Koons leaned in: "Actually, Lord Baron has wanted to leave for a long time.Who doesn't want to go back to the imperial capital, it's just that he doesn't have anything to do with it, and the title is low, and no one will help him.You came just in time, he has no territory, and he can't go back if he doesn't want to.Instead, it helped him. ”Han Qi nodded and looked around: "How many people are here" Koons spoke: "A thousand." ”"Eha" Han Qi subconsciously stood still, grinning at Koons, and screaming at him with a short body."

I know."

Koons was helpless: "There are too few people. ”The expression was weird and pushed away, and Koons said softly: "It's not enough for you to kill, right" Han Qi was stunned for a moment, crying and laughing: "Hey, in your eyes, I'm an outcast, a big demon king, a perverted cold-blooded violent maniac" Koons laughed dryly: "In fact" Han Qi waved his hand and ignored him, pointing around: "Those thousand people, what do you live on" Koons spoke: "Of course a thousand people can't do anything."

But there is a small town nearby, where there is only a landing point.Although the comings and goings are not frequent enough, there will always be some goods and goods from the imperial capital of the Romance Empire or other places.The town of Ronald is the commercial center of the surrounding villages or ethnic groups. ”Han Qi nodded: "The landing point is indeed very important. ”After a moment of silence, Han Qi came to the bazaar again, smiled, turned around and said: "Life is not bad, right" Koons sneered: "In comparison, it's okay."

But it certainly can't compare to any other town in the Romance Empire.You won't go hungry, you won't have much surplus, at least you won't be in debt.If you don't count the fact that it's a little out of touch with mainstream society, it's a relatively stable place to live. ”Han Qi knew that this was the truth, and walked towards the front, Han Qi spoke: "I have been here once before, but I only settled down.It's been around for a long time, and there's the Magic Sky Ship.If it is to guard against the Warcraft Mountain Range, a thousand people are so few, including the garrison" "Hehe. ”Koons waved his hand: "How can there be any garrison" Han Qi was puzzled: "This is the town closest to the boundary line of the Warcraft Mountain Range.Equivalent to the border town.Not a single garrison" Koons thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "At first, there were.But that was thousands of years ago.Later, I found out that the Warcraft Mountain Range, as long as you don't go in, almost all the Warcraft inside will never haunt regardless of the level.Even if there are occasional monsters that cross the line, they never harass the town. ”Han Qi was curious: "Warcraft never intrudes here" Koons spoke: "Yes."

So there was no garrison here.Yes, it is also a waste of material and financial resources.But in the end, the conservative approach is to encourage the residents of Ronald to move in from here.It turned out that the town was tens of thousands of people.Now a thousand people, they just feel that it is nothing, and they don't want to leave, so they stay and live like this, and it doesn't matter. ”Koons looked up at the sky and motioned to Han Qi: "I don't know what the gods asked of the demonic beasts before they left the Divine Continent.But they do follow the rules, they just don't come out" "Mr.

Koons, Mr.

Koons" Suddenly, a guard-looking man ran over, panting, his face was pale, and the direction seemed to be from the main gate of Ronald's town."

What for.It's rude," Mr.

Koons frowned, coughed lightly, and seemed to introduce Han Qi to him in a similar manner.As a result, "there are demonic beasts, there are demonic beasts approaching, and it is a group"""Koons immediately like a chicken with his throat cut, his expression, his words, came to an abrupt end.His eyes widened, his expression was a little stunned, frightened but more importantly, embarrassed."

Poof" Han Qi tilted his head and couldn't help laughing, holding the little short body and pretending not to care about looking at the side.Koons came back to his senses, his face was ugly, and he stared at the guard: "Don't you kid, do you know this one standing here" "Oh, who cares about this outcast" The guard shouted: "Go and see, I have to report to the baron" After saying that, he ran inside after passing Koons.And Koons looked stunned, Han Qi had already taken the first step and smiled, holding the little short body and walking towards the door.The gates of the town are closed.Not to mention, the walls of a small town are comparable to that of a city.It's right to think about it.This is the closest place to the Warcraft Mountain Range after all.Even if the army is not stationed for defense now, it used to be a priority.It should be that the former construction fortress is still left to this day, even if it is in disrepair for a long time, it is enough to resist it.As long as the monster doesn't really want to attack, at least it won't let them in casually.One by one, the townsfolk climbed onto the high wall.Han Qi found out that Bennie Dekert was also there.I didn't care much about it, but it wasn't so casual.And next to him, Edra Juggernaut also followed.Seeing Han Qi coming back with a little short body, he nodded.Han Qi returned the gift, and at this time Benedict had already noticed Han Qi: "I'm done shopping" Han Qi smiled: "By the way, take back my management rights." ”Benedict was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Yes."

Grand Duke Ronald. ”Han Qi didn't say much, leaned over and looked: "Hmm" Benniedek nodded: "Frost Giant Wolf." ”Glancing at Han Qi, Bennie Deckert frowned: "It's not related to you, it's just a chatter, it's really here" Han Qi frowned slightly, shook his head with a strange expression and didn't say much."

One thousand, one thousand" I don't know who suddenly called out, very frightened.There was an uproar.Han Qi grinned and looked over, do you really have the leisure to count it, isn't this disturbing the hearts of the people "Lord Baron ran away" As a result, as soon as he finished complaining, another one shouted out.Han Qi turned his head in shock, and sure enough, the town was not much bigger.And stand tall.As one person shouted, everyone turned their heads to look.A carriage drove straight through the opposite door.The direction must have been the opposite of the gate where the Frost Wolf was located."

He's just gone", "So what should we do", "How many years have there been no Warcraft close to Ronald Town, so he's gone", "Hey, what are we waiting for, let's go quickly", "That's it, the magnate is still the baron, and if you have something to do, you will go first" "Don't be naïve."

Isn't it always the case that the powerful have always been like this, we are just civilians, and of course we are the ones who sacrificed. ”The townspeople were in confusion.But maybe it was really the sequelae of that torture, Han Qi felt that more than a thousand people were in chaos, and there was no chaos.And there are many that have not stood on the walls."

Ah" is chaotic, and some are squeezed.Not serious, though.Still, there was a voice screaming, as if it had been knocked down.Han Qi got close and held it directly.When I picked it up, it was actually the woman holding the child before, and her head was burned by the small short body throwing things."

Eh, you" may be a bald outcast more conspicuous, and the other party still has an impression.But I didn't wait to speak.Koons actually ran over in a carriage and beckoned: "Everyone be quiet, don't be quiet" It seems that Koons usually helps the baron to come forward a lot, and when he saw him appear and still hasn't left, he is quieter."

Listen to me, everybody."

Koons gasped, also with helplessness, and looked at Han Qi standing on the city wall with a strange expression."

Baron Lillard didn't run away" he didn't believe it, and sure enough, it caused a wave of heckling among the townspeople.However, Koons still had to say, and when the townspeople's voices were lower, he pointed at Han Qi and signaled to everyone: "But it just so happens that Grand Duke Ronald, Duke Han Qi happened to arrive today."

and handed over the town of Ronald with Baron Lillard.At this time, Baron Lillard is no longer in charge of Ronald, and our new lord is Grand Duke Han Qi. ”Everyone's surprise looked up at the people on the city wall.Almost all went down.There was only the woman standing with the child in her arms, a young man of twenty-three or four.There is also an ordinary-looking squire, anyway, it won't be the bald outcast, t1706231537
