Sword of Daybreaker

Probably I didn’t expect the so-called punishment to be so casually. The hunter and sister didn’t respond to Gawain’s words for a while, until Gawain repeated his question again, and Tom, the red nose, was nodded: ” Can… I and Elder Sister can find other settlements.”

Homeless refugees will wander around the Feudal Territory. Usually, their course of action is irregular. They walk in places that no one knows, and they will die in places unknown to everyone, but overall The area where they can settle is a certain range.

These ranges are usually found in the uninhabited wilderness mountains between the noble territory, and this is the place in the north of the Clearwater River, the eastern part of the Tanzan mine, and the southern part of the Kant territory.

There are a large number of refugees from the bald eagle collar, Carroll collar and many scattered villages in the northwest wandering along the river and the forest to the area. They could have migrated to the slightly richer central region, but in the middle of the last two years The poor harvest in the southern region has led to a shortage of food stocks. Although many places have been slowed down this year, the local aristocracy is still strictly guarded against foreigners. The aristocrats in the central region are treated with the ignorance of thieves and robbers. The hungry people from the “poor south” are hungry, so for these homeless people, all the roads to the central region have been blocked, and they can only wander to the south of the mountain.

According to the crude information, there are currently thousands of homeless people who are hungry and scattered in this forest and wilderness, and most of the migrants have migrated along the same route (even from the same Place), the settlements formed by these homeless people maintain a certain degree of connection – although this connection is very loose, but like a network, as long as you master one of the nodes, then you can follow the line to find Grab the whole net in your hand.

Knight Byron has been spreading information in the South through his underground channels for more than half a month. The information on Cecil territory’s gathering of refugees must have entered the ears of these homeless people, but these poor people have long lost confidence in the nobility— – Before the fall of Frost Month, there were mercenary slaves sent by the nobility to plunder them almost every few days, so I wanted these people to be so easy to believe that there is another aristocratic family in World who is willing to accept and protect them. Almost impossible.

But if there are a group of refugees, a group of people who have escaped with them and lived in the wilderness for months or even a year, like them, rushing through the various settlements to pass the news, then it is easy to recruit homeless people. More.

Gawain is prepared to select a group of people who are more flexible, more courageous, and more convinced as guides and messengers from these dozens of refugees. They rely on their persuasive power to attract homeless people to settle in Cecil territory.

Frost Month is nearing the end, and Mist Month will officially enter the winter after it begins, so as to complete as many placements as possible before more people die.

The boy with a red nose (maybe adult, but too thin) is a bit savage, but he is not afraid, and his eyes are not as numb as most of the poor, so he can be such a messenger.

“Cecil Family is reshaping the order on this land. Before the arrival of this Month of Cold, all the homeless people who wandered in this forest and nearby wasteland can report to Cecil Family and become this land. A permanent, legal citizen,” Gawain looked at the boy in front of him, and also said to everyone next to him. He deliberately emphasized that it should be effective before the arrival of “Month of Cold”, but it is not really necessary. Set this limit, but to make this thing more credible, and to make these people feel pressure and urgency, “In order for all those in need to receive timely information, I want you – and Other capable people are looking for those who are hiding. I will send soldiers to escort to ensure that you can live to do the work.”

Tom listened to all of this with his eyes wide open, and Gawain turned and turned to the Southern Region refugees who described the dead and numbness except the tension: “I know that you were all honest people, obeying the law, diligent The people who work, but your Feidal Lord abandoned you. All the nobles in the entire Southern Region abandoned you. No family, no land allowed you to stand and survive. You can only wander in the wilderness, relying on grass roots and trees. Even the moss and the mice are full, and even then, the minions of the nobles are plundering you, killing you, and even chasing you here! But, starting today, you are standing on the land of the Cecil Family, from today At the beginning, I am your Feidal Lord! You can live freely and safely on the land of the Cecil Family, and you have to tell the people you know who are suffering together in the wilderness, let them know that there are places where you can settle down! ”

A little meager glory finally emerged from the eyes of the pair of turbid eyes.

They are still people after all, and they still have the heart.

Gawain didn’t expect these slow-hungry people to cheer and respond to themselves. After he said what he had to say, he took a half step back and saw that Wright had given Holy Light treatment to all the wounded, and turned to look towards Knight Philip :” Give the extra food to some of these people – otherwise it would be difficult for them to go to the Feudal Territory in their state. In addition, send a horse-riding soldier back and tell Hetty the news and prepare her.”

Distributing food after an inspiring speech is always the most effective way, especially in this era.

When the “Feudal Lord” ordered people to take out the food, these people would really feel that they had returned to “human society” and that their new “Feudal Lord” would indeed fill their stomachs, themselves. It will obey orders and maintain the most basic loyalty for this purpose. The civilian thinking of this era is so simple and direct, this can be said to be the only goodwill that Gawain feels in this malicious World.

At this time, the black hair girl who had just received Wright treatment suddenly came over. She grabbed her clothes with restraint and nervousness. There seemed to be something to say, Gawain saw the initiative and said: “Are you looking for me?”

“Yes…Yes, collar…Feudal Lord Lord,” the black hair girl seemed a bit embarrassed when she said the word “Feudal Lord”, but she still said it smoothly. “What you said is true. What?”

“Of course it’s true,” Gawain laughed. “I need to lie to you?”

But the words of the noble Lords are never true.

This sentence Joan only dared to think about it inside, she said: “Can I go to other settlements with my younger brother? He has inconvenient legs and needs people to take care of.”

“I will arrange a horse or a car if necessary,” Gawain just noticed the problem on the teenager’s legs, but it was still nodded. “Of course, you can still act with him.”

The girl bowed her head deeply: “Thank you for your kindness.”

One day later, Gawain and Amber led half of the soldiers and escorted the two mercenary to the first return to the Feudal Territory.

Knight Philip, with the remaining half of the soldiers escorting the dozens of “new populations” to follow, because the physique of the displaced people is weak, many people still have chronic diseases, so Wright is also left behind to take care of.

That Holy Light Priest can also top the combat power of the Berserker…

Gawain’s is in a good mood, although he has only brought back dozens of new populations, and he is not even as good as a slave ship from Tanzan Town, but he succeeded in the wilderness of the Clearwater River in the north. The entrants have established contacts, and the initial trust will be developed on the basis of these dozens of people. He is very happy to know how much Feidal Territory’s much-needed labor is gathered in this vast barren land.

Not to mention that more than half of these migrants are freelancers with some craftsmanship or at least a little knowledge. Their basic qualities are higher than those of slaves bought, which will reduce the cost in later education.

The serfs are hard to become displaced people – because they are tied to the land, when the disaster comes, the local nobility will gather their serfs and raise them to the end of the famine at the lowest cost to resume production and try to escape. The serfs will be arrested and executed, but the higher-ranking free people will lose all their reliance under such circumstances and have to flee their homes.

So sometimes someone will be so ridiculous that in some aristocratic land, the price of liberty is more expensive than becoming a serf.

But Hetty, who is in charge of Feudal Territory’s house, is a bit worried. She found Gawain: “The ancestor, do you really want to gather all the homeless people in the wilderness of the Clearwater River in the North Shore before the arrival of the Month of Cold?”

Gawain had already expected Hetty to come to him. He smiled: “Is there any pressure on food?”

“There is indeed – if the intelligence is true, the entire wilderness is now full of refugees, we will have to support about 4,000 people to spend this winter. In the Feudal Territory, the population expansion after this period is only 2,000 people. We have to support refugees who are more than twice the size of our current population. This is only a secondary issue. After all, food can be bought with money. Tanzan Town is rich and willing to sell it to us at low prices. The real trouble is how to maintain the order of so many people at once. We have finally digested the purchased serfs and slaves into a formula that understands the rules and keeps the law. People, I am very worried that the results I have been trying to achieve will be destroyed – even if those refugees are not intentionally destroyed.”

“We have increased the number of 800 people to 2,000 people, the population has more than doubled, but the order has not collapsed,” Gawain smiled and looked towards Hetty. “So what are you worried about?”

“That’s because the previous increase in population was arrived before Frost Month – the weather is warm and there are plenty of jobs for those who can follow the citizen to go to wasteland, go logging, build houses, according to your statement, Labor has been transformed, and adequate jobs will be the best way to digest and absorb new populations, but now it is already in the late Frost Month, and soon it will enter the snowy Mist Month, and then the Month of Cold, which is dripping into ice. We have no jobs at the time…”

“Who said no?” Gawain smiled even happier. “Why can’t I work in winter, but I can only eat food at home? In fact, the opposite is true… I have piles of engineering projects waiting here. Go and finish it.”
