Conquest

    Chapter 53—Strong pull

    It’s not unusual to change the owner of Wildfire Town. However, it was actually taken up by the regular army of Byzantine, but it is rare.

    Shaar was a little confused and didn't pursue it. Anyway, it didn't matter much to himself. Regardless of who the occupier changed, Wildfire Town is still Wildfire Town.

    But when Shaar walked under the wall, he couldn't help but see the guards wearing the leather system of the Byzantine Empire.

    These guys are just those Mercenary who occupied here! The last time Shaar came here a few days ago, these people were still soldiers of the mercenary group, because Shaar was going to the town, and one of them also took the last copper plate on Shaar to pay taxes.

    For those who take money from their pockets, Shaar remembers it very clearly!

    How did it take a few days for these guys to change and become the Byzantine Empire?

    Shaar was screaming at God's effort, and suddenly he heard the sound of horseshoes on the road behind him.

    A small team of Byzantine empire's riding cruise cavalry sprint, it seems that the patrol was completed nearby, more than a dozen cavalry wearing a lightweight breastplate, carrying an axe spear, immediately head high, from the city gate under the sneak Each cavalry's face carries the rigor and discipline that only regular military soldiers can have. These are not available in the mercenary group.

    Wearing ordinary Shaar into the city did not attract anyone's attention. When he walked into Wildfire Town, he discovered the difference between Wildfire Town and the past.

    There was a lot of depression on the street. In the square at the gate of the city, it was originally a horse market. The merchants from all over the world came to the north, and now they are obviously depressed, and the figures are sparse.

    In the streets, there is no scene of the merchants gathered in the past. It seems to be cold and clear, and even many of the roadside hotels have closed their doors and do not do business.

    In the town, from time to time there was a small team of Byzantine infantry patrols. These Byzantine infantry were wearing military boots, and when they walked, they made a neat squeaking sound, making them murderous aura.

    Black Street seems to be deserted. The carpet on the street is only one-third of the past, and many shops have closed the door.

    Shaar wonders – Does the Byzantine want to ruin Wildfire Town? In the past, it was not without official occupation, but it never made such a ruin.

    Shaar was quite dissatisfied. He was very busy with the huge amount of money, but he found that the store was deserted, and he could not help but be greatly disappointed. Even when he walked through the black street, he took a look at the signing of the demon beast. That shop, actually the door is closed, not open.

    After walking through the black street, I turned to the fat powder street that Shaar dreamed of. At first glance, the heart of the hillbilly suddenly faded:

    In the past, the fat powder street can be described as leaning against the horse flower street, full of red sleeves, walking through the fat powder street, you can feel the smell of that fragrance. It can be seen like this, there is no one on the street, a gust of wind, only a few pieces of withered leaves, and occasionally a skinny skinny wild dog ran across the street…

    Woman You can find a bitch out of it!

    Shaar is angry.

    A man is full of pride, and the result is that the individual will be unhappy. What's more, a virgin who has been married for more than ten years?

    Shaar walked two streets and found a pub that he had visited many times and strode in. The pub only opened half of the door. Although he was still open when he walked in, the huge lobby was cold and clear, only sitting. Two or three tables.

    A tall, thin man with only one eye in front of the counter, wiping a glass with a dry cloth in his hand, watching Shaar come in, just nodded and smiled in a hoarse voice: "Small Shaar is coming? You haven't come to buy wine for a long time. ”

    This shop Shaar used to come often, not only because this rye is the cheapest in the town, the most important reason is: this one-eyed man behind the bar, once used Shaar three years of rivals – in Shaar Before becoming sensible.

    because……This one-eyed guy is the husband of Sofia’s amnesty.

    Of course, this one-eyed man wouldn't know the twists and turns in Shaar's mind, and now Shaar wouldn't be hostile to this guy, sit down casually, throw a gold coin and throw it on the counter.

    One eye took it and glanced at it. One eye looked at Shaar, grabbed the gold coin and bit it hard in his mouth, only grinned and revealed a rotten tooth: "Small hunter is rich?"

    He turned and took out a bottle of fine tequila: "Give, this is the best, it's all for you."

    Shaar didn't drink this kind of good wine. He took a bite out of the bottle cap and gave a sigh of relief. He whispered: "Hey, what's going on in the town?" How did those Mercenaries become Byzantine people? ”

    Looking at the store door with one eye and cautiously, this smiled: "You still don't know?" Those Mercenary were originally Byzantine people. They used to be Mercenary and took the town, which was to give the outpost of the army of the Byzantine Empire. More than a dozen days ago, an Army of Byzantine came here, um, probably two days after your last departure. The Byzantine Army team took the town, and the town's Mercenary was really a group with them, all replaced the equipment, and then announced that the town was owned by the Byzantine Empire, and posted a notice under the wall. ”

    “How can the business in the town become so bleak?”Shaar frowned: "They dare to mess around like this? Fearless The people in the town drove these guys out? ”

    This kind of thing has not happened before. Many years ago, there was a thief group who did not know the height of the sky and occupied the town. He took advantage of his own strength and made a heavy tax on the town. He also levied heavy taxes. The result was that Wildfire Town people did not do it.

    For most people in Wildfire Town, whoever dominates the town does not care, as long as they don't break the financial path of Father.

    But if you dare to mess? Hey, there are no good people on Wildfire Town, just pick out two, and they are all desperate!

    As a result, the last thieves group began to think that they had broken into the flock and could arbitrarily slaughter and angered the people of Wildfire Town. Then they suddenly discovered that they did not enter the flock, but entered the wolf's nest! In Wildfire Town, hundreds of people gathered in less than half a day. Everyone was a desperate, and a slashing and killing thief group was directly destroyed. The head of the thief group was also hung on the big tree outside the town to hang the body for a month. Finally, only half of the skeleton was left by the crow!

    Since then, no one dared to mess around in Wildfire Town.

    Do you want to occupy Wildfire Town? Yes, you can be a manager. But everyone does not make a river water!

    Let's just say that if all the people on Wildfire Town are caught and hanged, there must be no grievances, but if you kill half of them, you will definitely miss the net.

    For example, the one-eyed pub in this pub, this guy is not a good class. There was a deep scar on his neck, which was cut by a knife and cut his throat, so his voice would be so hoarse. And Shaar heard that he is not an Odin or a Byzantine.

    This one-eyed eye is not a mainlander, but a Kingdom of Atlantis from the west side of the mainland. The “pirate country” likes to wear a headscarf on his head. This headscarf is called “pirate towel” and is unique to Atlantean. dress up.

    You said, a good citizen will have a knife on his neck?

    "Now everyone has no business to do, and the people in the town have not responded?"Shaar is puzzled.

    "Of course there is a reaction, but what can we do?"One-eyed sneer: "This time I opened a whole Army, I was stationed in the south of the town, a regular army, but we can harden it. And, you don't know? It seems to be fighting now, Byzantine and Odin! On the first day of the Byzantine occupation, the army patrolled the streets and announced military control. Many shops were temporarily shut down because they were deemed to be selling military prohibited items. They didn't copy the store, they were already abiding. ”

    WellWhat about the fat powder street? ”Shaar was embarrassed to ask what he wanted to know most.

    One-eyedly, it is quite awkward: "Hey! The Byzantine people of these dog days took all the girls from the Fat Powder Street as if they were full of enthusiasm. Bye! They have a need for these soldiers, are we not there? Too angry! ”

    Shaar despised this guy.

    You have the kind of beauty of Sofia, and you also have the idea of ​​playing on the street…Too shameless!

    After drinking half a bottle of wine, Shaar put the bottle on the counter: "The rest is here, next time I come to drink!" You can't steal it! ”

    One-eyed smile snorted and watched Shaar leave.

    Out of the pub, Shaar's interest is sorrowful, Byzantine, Odin, and playing, and has nothing to do with Shaar. He is neither a Byzantine nor an Odin. Now it seems that because Byzantine accounted for Wildfire Town and Shaar’s plan to buy the spring was shattered, he felt more like the Odin Empire.

    Walked to the square in the north of the town, ready to go home to the city, just walked to the square, I saw a corner of the square set up a table, the above-mentioned officers look like a person holding a tinplate and shouting something, the table is surrounded by sparse The hundred and ten people are onlookers.

    "Thirty copper plates! 30 copper plates a month! Also free tube rice! Take care of your tube! ! This kind of work is not easy to find! ! ”The officer shouted loudly: "If you want to do it, come up!" hurry up! A rare opportunity! ! ”

    Under the table, a team of wolf-like soldiers, the Byzantine infantry, stood in the middle of the crowd to maintain order. Several people from time to time in the crowd moved to sign up.

    But most people are just sneer.

    It turned out to be Laminf Zhuangding…Shaar is a little funny.

    Most of those who signed up for the registration were some of the stolen or swindlers like the golden fingers in the town. Now the town is deserted and these people are not eating. The rest of the Wildfire Town people, the most is Jiang Yang thieves, who will do this for your 30-month copper plate?

    The officer shouted for a long time, and saw the hundred people in the plan to recruit, only recruited a dozen, and could not help but worry! Moreover, the ten people recruited here seem to be thin and thin, and it is difficult to bring them back when they bring them back. They are anxious in their hearts, and they can't help but have a bad thought.

    Damn it, can't come, Father can't pull it! Anyway, here is not the territory of Byzantine, and the people here are not the nationals of Byzantine…

    He made a few gazes to his men, and his men suddenly met. This kind of thing that forced the people, who in the army did not know? A group of infantry pulled out the sword and rushed into the crowd like a wolf.

    The crowd suddenly disappeared, and the Byzantine soldiers pushed and shoved, and even the belt was smashed, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

    Shaar was just passing by, but it shouldn't be a good thing. The officer stood on the table and looked far away. When he saw Shaar, he raised his finger and said, "There is! That guy is strong! Pull over and pull over! ! ”
