Chapter 10 Discussion
The robber leader struggled to stand up, covered his pierced abdomen, turned around and shouted: "Do you know who I am? Do you dare to treat me like this! No matter where you are! My lord will definitely not let you go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Lei, who was covered in golden armor, walked out in the crowd around him, and the black armored knights immediately gave in and let him enter the encirclement.
Ding Lei approached, looked at him, and asked, "Who are you?"
"Hmph, let me go to death if you say it! Let me go quickly! Otherwise, my lord..."
"Kill his Highness!!"
"Kill him!"
Someone shouted loudly in the crowd, and then everyone started yelling, throwing a large number of stones over. Not only the robber leader, but Ding Lei's armor was also smashed and ping-pong.
At this time, one of the Death Knights came out of the encirclement, came to Ding Lei, pointed to the robber leader and said, "Military advisor, you need..."
Yadunis needs to be questioned, so it’s okay to take it back. Ding Lei nodded and took a step back.
Before the robber's head could react, his hair was immediately caught by the Death Rider, and then he was dragged out of the circle like a fish in front of the pot.
People gave him a way, and then closed and looked at the robbers in the middle of the encirclement.
"I want to avenge my father!!" One of the young men, holding the machetes dropped by the bandits, rushed into the encirclement of the dead knights, and killed one of the bandits, which scared himself.
The Death Knights did not stop him, and Yadonis allowed it.
Everyone calmed down for a while, then they all roared, holding stones, swords and axes, rushed towards the robbers in the middle of the square...
The hatred of killing the father and the hatred of taking the wife must be vented by these villagers, otherwise the resentment will be blocked in the heart and problems will eventually arise.
Seeing that everything he should have done, Ding Lei turned his head and was about to leave when the village chief's family came towards him. He came over excitedly and wanted to kneel down and was immediately held back.
After calming down, the village chief brought Ding Lei to his house and asked, "His Royal Highness, what are your plans for the future?"
Ding Lei asked knowingly: "Do you have anything else?"
The village chief was a little anxious and said, "You have also heard that the robber said that there is a larger force behind him. If they come... no! They will definitely come!"
"Do you want me to stay?" Ding Lei asked looking at him.
"Although this may make you embarrassed...but is it OK? If you just leave like this, we will really be unable to escape the bad luck..." The village elder cried in tears.
Ding Lei was almost done when he watched the show and said, "Okay, I have to find a place to settle my subordinates anyway."
The village chief cried with joy and asked Ding Lei what he needed so that he could ask the villagers to prepare.
"Horse, food, and accommodation are all available! As long as you speak!"
Ding Lei didn't know what it would take to build a resident. After all, this was not a game. Yadunis should have arranged it, so he immediately said, "Well, some of my subordinates have not come. When they come, they will bring the supplies. Let's see it later."
"Do you have other people?" The village chief was a little surprised, and started to have a headache while being happy, saying, "If the number of people is increased, I don't know if the supplies provided by the village are enough. I take the liberty to ask, are you planning to go to the front line with your subordinates?"
"No, I am the son of a lord from afar. Now I have to go out for training and need to build a large stronghold to prove my value." Ding Lei fooled him according to the lines he had thought about before.
After hearing this, the village chief looked like this indeed. He was about to continue saying something, but suddenly, a noisy sound came from outside the village.
The robbers are here again?!
The two hurried out.
The Death Knights were gathering with a group of villagers holding weapons, and the people from the surrounding Kaim Village hid far away.
"It's the rescue team of Norm Village! Your Highness! Can you let your subordinates stop?!"
The village chief shouted immediately after seeing this, and Ding Lei also stopped the Death Knights from taking the knife accordingly and asked them to retreat aside.
"Old John!" One of the people in Norm Village shouted when they saw the village chief. In fact, the village chief was only in his 30s and looked old outside.
Several people gathered together, without too much coldness, and they nervously looked at the black armored knights around them, especially the guy in armor next to the village chief.
"Who are they?" someone asked.
"Our benefactor, stop talking nonsense now. Go back quickly and inform Ram Village to go to the middle council room for a meeting, and discuss important matters!"
Kem, Nom, and Ram, the three villages were created by three brothers who left Cologne, and joined forces with nearby villages. The three villages were all 1 kilometer apart, forming three vertices of an equilateral triangle. There was a house in the center. Every time they had a major event, the villagers would gather there for a meeting and discuss countermeasures.
Everyone worked hard for a long time before they got together in the conference room of the wooden house.
"I'll introduce it first." Village Chief John stood up and introduced to Ding Lei, "This is the hero of our Kem Village and the leader of the Golden Eagle Knights."
Next, I explained the whole story to everyone, and everyone was silent after listening.
After a while, someone said, "Your Highness, how many people did you bring this time? How many troops will there be in the future?"
“500.”
"Oh oh~" the people below exclaimed, and then they talked a lot. Some people also felt that the number of people was a little small, after all, there might be more bandits coming to take revenge in the future.
Someone stood up and said, "As far as I know, the defense force of the entire Cologne City is only about 10,000. And they are nearly a hundred miles away from here. Regardless of whether they will send reinforcements, even if there are, the daylily will be cold when they arrive here."
Someone immediately agreed, but there were also voices of objection.
"If His Highness is stationed here, then we will have to pay a portion of the food supply. At the same time, when the tax collector of Cologne comes, he will have to pay another portion. This will be very difficult for everyone, right?"
Village Chief John roared loudly after hearing this: "We paid so many taxes, what about the people in Cologne?! They didn't even come with a soldier. If His Highness hadn't helped me, I would have the life to talk to you here?"
"What should I do if I pay taxes?"
"Tax collector get out! If you don't pay, we will pay! Isn't it just to support an army? Our Kaim Village can afford it! Don't expect your highness to come and save you when you are attacked!"
Several other people looked at each other, and the last old man said, "If we don't pay taxes to Cologne, we will not be able to enter the city in the future... In this way, how about half of our Norm?"
"We also paid half of it. Old John, it's not that we don't want to help, it's really unaffordable."
"You!..." Old John was about to speak, but was interrupted by Ding Lei who was silent on the side.
"Everyone, I have my own supplies and I don't need your supplies, but I would like to ask you a few questions, just as a reward for protecting you in the future."
