Chapter 18 A good person deserves to be pointed at a gun
Vortigern is actually a very good boss to serve. He always says whatever he thinks, and he won't pretend to cover it up even when he wants to kill you.
Such people often keep their promises.
Even though he was humiliated by Vortigern, Hengist's expression remained unchanged. His flattery was just right. No one else in the British Isles could do it so vividly. He looked magnanimous and indifferent.
In fact, Vortigern did not deliberately humiliate Hengist. The white dragon did not have the habit of talking nonsense.
He sincerely regarded the Ansa as foreign inferiors, but as the leader of the Ansa, Hengist was looked up to by him and could be regarded as a hunting dog of their Celtic people.
The Celts were a fishing and hunting nation who made their living by hunting. Hunting dogs had a very high status and many great heroes had the habit of raising dogs. Cu Chulainn changed his name to Cu Chulainn because he mistakenly killed the hunting dog of the blacksmith Curran and volunteered to replace the hunting dog.
It is conceivable that in the Celtic's cognition, the status of hounds was already very high.
But a dog is a dog after all, and he is not a human being in any way.
"Thank you for your generosity, wise and mighty White Dragon, your great majesty."
Hengist once again performed impeccable etiquette and left the king's bedroom with his brother Horsa, who remained silent and attentive.
Until this time, Horsa, who had been silent until now, said gloomily: "How stupid is this old man? We are consolidating his power and status, but this idiot actually..."
"Shut up! This is why I don't let you speak in front of the humble king!" Hengist shook his head. He was not afraid that there might be Vortigern's spies nearby, because he knew that Vortigern would not monitor these 'Angsa bastards' at all.
"Remember our identities and don't show any negative emotions in front of Vortigern, otherwise I won't be able to save you!"
Hengist's eyes were deep, and he lost the cautious and flattering attitude in front of Vortigern. The demeanor of a great leader was evident between his brows: "Vortigern may have many shortcomings, but he is a very trustworthy person..."
"Haha~ It's really interesting. The Celtic barbarians are very trustworthy. If they say they will kill your whole family, they will kill your whole family. If they say they will grant you a county, they will grant you a county!"
Hengist's face was full of enthusiasm: "Horsa, our chance has come. The chance for us Ansa people to establish a nation has come!"
Hengist was the man who founded the era of the Seven Kingdoms of England (meaning the land of the Angles). Ever since he landed on the island of Britain in the Age of Gods, he had always wanted to establish a country in this promised land given to him by God.
After seeing the scenery of the Age of Gods, no one wants to return to the extremely inward-looking European continent, where even the survival opportunities have been squeezed out.
The Anglo-Saxons had no way out. The reason they fled to Britain was because their living position in Europe was squeezed.
Originally, the four major Germanic tribes were all in the north of Rome, and were occasionally recruited by Rome to join the army to attack the great empire in the east. However, the Huns from the east had previously defeated the Alans and Visigoths, and the Goths began to migrate westward after their defeat...
The Goths themselves were the strongest race among the four major Germanic tribes. Neither the Ansas nor the Gauls could compete with the Goths. Most of the territory of Gaul was occupied by the Goths in the name of "allies".
The Anglo-Saxons were even worse off. These pirates, whose territories were not fixed, found that their homes were gone and their territories had been taken away when they returned home. They could not defeat the Goths on land, so they could only come to Britain to beg for food.
"But..." Horsa still had concerns. After all, the humble king was so cruel as to ask all the Ansa people who could go out to sea to send their troops. If the news leaked accidentally and King Uther knew about it, it would trigger another war and it was unknown how many Ansa people would die.
These are the capital for the two brothers to gain a foothold in Britain.
But Hengist waved his hand and said, "No need to say more, Horsa. The Celtic 'Righteous Kelar' is very kind, isn't he?"
Hengist sneered and said, "If we do not obey Vortigern's orders, he will kill us and drive the remaining Ansa to their deaths."
"But if we invade Maple Ridge, maybe the merciful 'righteous man' will let us go?"
After all, good guys deserve to have guns pointed at them.
Hengist finally said, "Let's go, call Volend and the others, and discuss how to send this merciful and righteous man to see our all-knowing Lord of Hosts."
[At the age of 15, your Delin Prison has already held thousands of Ansa people, and you have "raised the flag" and granted the status of Celts to more than Ansa people, almost all of whom are the first batch of low-level sailors you imprisoned.]
[The Ansa pirates who were subsequently imprisoned in Delin Prison were basically the ruling class such as the captains and vice captains of various ships. They sneered at your teachings and had great malice towards you.]
[You set a rule that no matter if the labor contribution value reaches the standard or the ideological transformation reaches the standard, they can be released from prison, incorporated into the lord's guard, and granted the same Celtic identity, and no longer be called Ansa. ]
[But if the labor contribution value meets the standard, the ideological score must also be sufficient, and if the ideological transformation meets the standard, the labor contribution must also be sufficient. Under Kelar's wise management, there is no such thing as a bug. ]
[You have taught more than 500 people in less than two years, but you are not proud of it because you deserve it.]
[You are not worried that pardoning too many criminals at once and incorporating them into the Lord's Guard will put your finances on the line. Through the trade with the Ansa people in the past two years... well, I mean being "plundered" by the Ansa people, your territory has made a lot of money. Many treasures that can only be produced in the sea and products unique to the Ansa people are only sold exclusively in Maple Ridge.]
[You exchanged all the spoils brought by the Ansars for wealth, paying only a negligible amount of food and weapons. This has made Maple Ridge richer than the capital Camelot, and has become a place where each city is richer than the rest of the country.]
[Gradually, you are a little dissatisfied. Why are there only so many Angsa people who come to 'plunder' each time? Every time the Angsa people come, there are sometimes one or two thousand, sometimes one or two hundred, and the quality and quantity of the goods they bring are also uneven...]
[You only bring this much stuff every time you come? If the Celts in the capital see us, they will think we can't afford it. Who can buy this much? One boat per person, I mean one boat per person! ]
[You even start to hope that the Ansas will come with a big wave. ]
[However, you have recently been a little confused as to why the Ansa people have not come to plunder for several months. Unfortunately, your territory is a bit far from the Ansa people's habitat, and even if you send out scouts and crows, you can't get accurate information. ]
[The Celtic lords are already somewhat dissatisfied. Although Maple Ridge's finances are still sufficient to support it, if there is no income, it will only be exhausted. ]
[At this time, you have a bad feeling. You know that Hengist is not a mediocre leader. Perhaps it is this person who ruined your plan.]
