The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 339 The Proud Russian
Tusculum village.

The territory of Baron Zhang Qiang, a subordinate of the Earl of Montville, Earl of Malagburg in the Kingdom of Swadia.

The air is full of tension, people are in a hurry, no matter who greets each other, there is a trace of worry on the face, the birds do not come to sing cheerfully in the early morning, instead they are one or two black crows , using their distinct yellow and black eyeballs to search the ground carefully in the air, as if they could immediately find the bodies of one or two dead people who had just been killed from the ground. In the approaching dusk, there was a mournful cry of joy.

The fast horses galloping in and out brought news from various post stations into the hall of Zhang Qiang's manor.

The storyteller Ramosun was processing these news, and picked out some important news and news about Tusculum, and read it to Zhang Qiang.

Zhang Qiang was fully clothed, sitting on the lord's large chair in the hall of the manor, waving his arms wearing heavy armor armguards, and stuffing Sharize's grapes into his mouth with his hands.

"Well, in fact, the grapes of Sharize are also good. Compared with the mountain grapes of Rhodok, these desert grapes are slightly sour, but they still have a special flavor in the mouth."

Sitting on the side, Manid reached out to pick up a bunch of grapes from the plate and chewed them in his mouth, "Well, let me tell you this, I think Shariz's desert grapes are better than Veruga's. The mountain grapes are more flavorful, especially when you eat them in your mouth, the slight sour taste will go straight to your brain, which is so refreshing."

John Johnson said with a bitter face: "Lord, you are still in the mood to eat grapes and taste its uniqueness. You should worry about your own territory. If the army of Sarande comes, they will come from the distant Sarande Desert , The supplies you carry with you will definitely not be too much, and when the time comes, you will definitely sweep the surrounding villages, and you lords who own villages will be out of luck."

Manid glanced at him, and said disdainfully: "The lord has already made plans in his heart, he is not worried, what are you worried about?"

John Johnson said angrily: "How can you tell that the lord has already planned in his heart, are you the roundworm in his stomach?"

Manid raised his head proudly, held up a glass of Veluga wine, and glanced at the malt wine in John Johnson's hand, "This is the difference between you and me."

"Huh——, pretending to be arrogant, every time you do long-distance business, you don't get much, and you always fail. If it weren't for the lord who provided you with sufficient funds, you would have never known that you were in that hotel. Staying alone, when you are down, you may not even be able to drink a glass of ordinary or low-quality malt wine. I never envy you for drinking those expensive wines, and I never mind whether I drink low-quality malt wine or high-quality wine. Good ale, as long as it's ale, I'm satisfied."

"Small wealth means peace, I think you will never be a nobleman. Because you are full of thoughts of ordinary people." Manid choked on John Johnson in dissatisfaction.

John Johnson, "..."

Zhang Qiang patted the table, "Enough, John Johnson, what is the current situation of my territory?"

John Johnson was terrified by Zhang Qiang's yell, and said in a low voice: "My lord, your territory has now grown from a very barren small village to a generally prosperous big village."

He hurriedly took out an account book from his sleeve, looked down a few times, "I can provide you with 2000 dinars of gold coins in taxes every week, the population, the village outside has more than 2000 people so far, and the inside of your manor Excluding your soldiers and us officials, there are about 600 people in the population, and their loyalty to you is absolutely high, and they wish your longevity and health every day."

"In addition, there are already two mills in the village. Although they cannot supply the flour they need to make black bread in time, they are already very happy compared to villages without mills, or even villages with only one mill. .”

"Also, a school was established in the village. Through the school's education, they have made it clear that such a stable and prosperous village is all thanks to your protection. They feel that they should study hard and repay your kindness in the future."

"Secondly, we refurbished the roads in the village and built enough houses for the new villagers to live in. Of course, these houses need to be paid to you for rent, and they have to pay us back in the next ten years. Money to build a house.

The arrow towers and watchtowers built in and around the village increased their sense of security. They felt that Tusculum Village was the most suitable place for them to live, and it was a good place like a paradise on the Calradia continent. "

"Besides, we have built guard towers and post stations ten miles away from the village. Once the enemy arrives, the guard towers and post stations in all directions will transmit the enemy's message to the manor and prepare your troops to meet the enemy. Get ready and buy enough time."

"..."

Zhang Qiang waved him to stop the report, and raised his head to signal Lesarit to talk about his current strength.

"My lord, you currently have 150 cavalrymen, 200 infantrymen, and 100 crossbowmen under your direct command, a total of 30. In addition, there are 60 cavalrymen for the guards of the manor, which are used for daily patrol and news delivery, and 100 infantrymen, which are used for defense. The manor also has [-] strong men who are capable of fighting. In wartime, as long as they are given a weapon, they will be qualified soldiers."

"In the village, you can immediately recruit 150 village guards and 200 strong men. If you don't mind age and combat effectiveness, you can also recruit 300 consisting of old people, children who have not yet reached the fighting age, and shrews from the village."

Lesarit looked up at Zhang Qiang for the last time, "There are enough soldiers, enough for you to launch a war against the territory of a weaker Viscount."

Zhang Qiang nodded in satisfaction.

At this time, Ramosun said: "Master, the guards came to report just now. A baron from the Kujit Kingdom came to our territory with his troops. He said he wanted to see you. At present, I asked him to wait outside the territory. Now, do you want to see him?"

Zhang Qiang brought several of his knights out to welcome him. If it was in the past, he would not be like this. Feng Qingyang is a hostile force, but he is magnanimous in doing things. Several game pods to help them experiment.

From the bottom of his heart, he is still very grateful to him.

The territory was ransacked by Zhang Qiang, his source of soldiers was gone, and the money and supplies in his territory were also emptied by Zhang Qiang. Zhang Qiang could see that his army armor was messy and worn out, and the personnel were not very elite. Tier [-] Kujit low-ranking soldier.

There were no more than fifty people in total.

Seeing Zhang Qiang, Feng Qingyang's face was not very good-looking. He only found out that his village had been ransacked when he went online, and Zhang Qiang was the one who ransacked.

"Zhang Qiang, you are too hurt, are you treating me like this?" Feng Qingyang said straight to the point as soon as he came up.

"Hehe, there's no way. It's not your first time playing in the game world. The rules of this world are like this. Looting the enemy's villages and weakening the enemy's war potential makes the enemy have no money and no one. Is it normal? Come on Come on, stop talking, go in and rest for a while, besides, do you still have a good old man, he can get you the status of a baron, identity, give you some money, recruit soldiers again, it won’t take long, your brother will be there again It's a man."

Feng Qingyang was very frustrated, and almost cried: "Stop mocking me here, it's not like you don't know that Halma has been captured by Salander, and my father-in-law has also become a lord without a fief. His current army is only about 150 elite, and the total number is only about [-] people. He has already gone to Turga City to cry with Sergi Khan."

"I came this time to fulfill our agreement." He whispered to Zhang Qiang.

Zhang Qiang nodded, "I know, let's go, I'll take you to see those Russians."

As he spoke, he brought Feng Qingyang to the other side of the manor.

Those Russians are currently under the surveillance of the strong men, sweating profusely in the fields of the manor, and the deployment of those captives, the player members, are working on various construction sites, working as small workers, being whipped by the strong men, and the handles of the knives Beating, being treated like a slave, commanded.

Feng Qingyang pointed at them, "Zhang Qiang, this is too dark!"

"Hehe, Feng Qingyang, this is not the real world. Without those high-spirited people, we can't use the moral principles and norms of the real world to restrain ourselves. If I were captured by you that day, it would be different if I was thrown into prison, or Are my men sent to work?"

"The game world, it's different."

"Francie—" Zhang Qiang shouted.

Francie pressed the hilt of the sword with her forehand, standing there majesticly, looking at the personnel in various places, and when she heard Zhang Qiang's call, she immediately ran over and bowed to Zhang Qiang: "My lord."

Zhang Qiang raised his head and looked down at him, "Francie, gather the prisoners who were escorting the supplies we captured in the Kujit Kingdom last time, and bring them here."

"Yes, my lord." Francie respectfully saluted an ancient warrior and ran out.

Looking at those Russians who were tall and burly, like mules and horses, dressed in rags, walking tremblingly, they were gathered together by the soldiers yelling.

Feng Qingyang felt that this was really detrimental to the prestige of these people. He usually yelled at him, but now he became someone else's prisoner. After being treated like this, Feng Qingyang really didn't know what these people would think .

Maybe they had already thought of swallowing Zhang Qiang alive in their hearts.

But just as Zhang Qiang said, this is the game world, not the real world. Zhang Qiang can't entertain them with delicious food and drink. He handed them over to his NPCs to take care of them, and that's how the NPCs in the game world take care of people.

Feng Qingyang saw Petrov Seryosha's expression when he saw him, as if he saw his father and mother whom he hadn't seen for a long time, his eyes were so excited that he was about to shed tears.

Zhang Qiang said to his subordinates at this time: "Francie, my crossbowman commander, wash these people clean, then change into a set of clean clothes, and bring them to the hall of the manor to meet me." After finishing speaking, he said to Feng Qingyang: "Brother Feng, let's go. I've already found them for you. You can take them away after a while. Let's go to the lobby of my manor and wait."

Feng Qingyang looked back at Petrov Seryosha and the others, seeing them chattering in Russian, their expressions were very excited.

But it was not good for him to talk to them here, so he had to let Zhang Qiang drag him to the hall of Zhang Qiang's manor and wait.

Along the way, he saw that Zhang Qiang's territory was densely populated, rich in products, and had a large number of soldiers, which was much better than his shabby territory.
