Soon, the man who returned to the cave came out with 10 companions. While walking, he showed off his cloaks to his companions.

Similarly, after a good atmosphere conversation, the man who had returned to the cave, along with his nine companions, was taken away by Henk to receive a gift of "that will make them remember for a lifetime".

The 10th man was left with his life, and Roger gave him alone in glorious soft clothes, and gave him fine wine and food.

Afterwards, Roger advised the man to return to his companions underground, and advised them to come out and enjoy these fine wines and foods that only nobles could enjoy.

Roger claimed that he would treat them thoughtfully, pay tribute to them with a large number of gifts, grant them all his place as fiefs, and handle everything according to their advice.

So the man was slightly drunk and returned to the cave with a full of alcoholic and expensive clothes.

Little Boximond said with some dissatisfaction: "You can't give them a fiefdom, and you won't follow their advice. What you promise them is something you can't do, and you are lying."

Roger smiled and said, "I have never been tired of deceitful soldiers. I have regarded them as enemies. How can I treat them sincerely?"

This time, about 30 more people came out.

Under the leadership of the slightly drunk man, they shouted to ask for gifts.

There were too many people, and Roger didn't let them into the tent.

He asked Henk to open his wallet and scatter the gold coins directly on the ground in front of the tent, allowing them to snatch them.

Roger then told them that there were better, more gifts that could make them "remember their lives" just not far away.

So these people were taken away from the tent, followed Henk and his guards, happily receiving the "gift".

Of the 30 people, only one stayed with Roger.

Roger treated the only one remaining among the 30 people with extraordinary glory and friendship.

This man was also sent back to the ground to report to the people underground the glory and gifts he received, and encouraged them to come out of their fortress with the same hope.

Bosimmond couldn't help but ask again: "Why are they so stupid?"

Roger smiled: "Every time I go back, I am not the same person, so the people below can only see that everyone who comes back brings glory and gifts.

"Then they think that everyone else has received glory and gifts."

"But if they can ask others carefully about where they are, they may not be able to find your loophole," said Boschmond.

Roger said seriously: "Greed blinds their eyes, so even if they see unreasonable things, they will ignore them."

Xiao Boximond murmured: "They are so stupid, so stupid. If anyone is smarter, they will not be fooled by you."

But Roger doesn't think so. In the memories of his previous life, many smart people have fallen into similar scams, even rougher and more simple than this.

So again, 220 people came out, and all the adult men in the cave came out without falling to the ground.

This time, Roger did not talk much. Under his order, everyone was immediately controlled and tied up.

Roger then ordered them to behead.

Gillard, Rugero excitedly carried out Roger's orders, even though they were not his men.

They shouted, "You robbers and kill pilgrims, and sinners who have brought great harm to the pilgrims who have gone to Jerusalem, accept the sanctions of justice!"

So the 220 people were beheaded.

Gillard sighed: "Now, we finally avenge the pilgrims."

He said to Roger with gratitude: "These people have never been punished for their crimes.

"Because no one has ever been able to drive them out of this hole with strategy or force before."

Roger and his men did not participate in the rest of the finishing work.

Rugero rushed into the cave with his men in armor.

After a while, they came out with women and children, along with what they had snatched from the pilgrims.

Then, Rugero ordered the flammable materials such as wood, flax, straw, etc. to be transported to the cave to ignite, and the strong smoke and heat rushed out from different places in the hills.

So the entire cave was cleaned up and no one could survive there.

Because I took the prisoners on the way back, I was not in a hurry to rush.

When Roger and his party returned to Antioch, it was already the third day after they left.

The troops passed through Vafari Gate and prepared to arrive at the square before disbanding.

At this time, Roger saw an acquaintance coming towards him.

It is Baldwin of Burke, Earl of Edsa.

His wife, Armenian princess Mofia and second daughter Alice, followed closely behind.

Behind him are his general and his guards.

Rugero greeted him happily, and he greeted him in a tone that was simply insulting.

Baldwin obviously knew that this man had a bad mouth, so he didn't respond, but his face turned black and he didn't know if he was angry.

Little Bosimmond also excitedly met him.

He and Alice were in a wrong way and had a cordial conversation.

The two of them had obviously been apart for a few days, but they seemed to be relatives who had not seen each other for many years, and had countless words to talk about.

Baldwin then greeted Roger and others.

Roger remembers Baldwin said after buying the horse that he would go back to Edessa City directly.

But for some reason, this person came here again.

He calculated the itinerary, and Baldwin had to travel day and night to go back and forth like this.

So Roger asked, "It's not easy to go back and forth to Edessa so quickly. Are you in urgent need of something?"

Baldwin said angrily: "I didn't go back, and I was stopped by a rebellious Turkic tribe on the way and couldn't get through.

"These bastards who forget their interests and have few people and many horses in their hands, actually want to make a decision."

Rugero said with a sarcasm: "Baodwin, it turns out that you escaped with your butt.

"Do you want me to lead the troops to help you clean up the road?"

Baldwin said with a calm face: "Yes, I think I can only ask you for help."

Rugero laughed, as if he was very proud of Baldwin begging him.

He said with smugness: "You have times when you beg me, but your attitude is wrong. Shouldn't you kneel down first if you ask for someone?"

Baldwin's face turned darker, and his general shouted: "Rugero, stop at this time!"

Rugero giggled and said, "Just just kidding, why are you doing so seriously? Tell me, how many of them are? Where are they?"

Baldwin replied: "4,000 archers chased me, and finally I saw them stopping on the banks of the Orentes River."

Rugero was stunned for a moment, then said furiously:

"Damn it! That's my territory. I haven't collected the taxes there yet!"

Baldwin said calmly: "Then you can save some effort, they will definitely collect it for you.

"And it must be collected completely and thoroughly."

Rugeno grabbed the horse's reins and shouted, "What are you waiting for?! Let's go over now and grab my taxes back!"

Rugero greeted his men and returned to the city.

Gerald led the Knights of the Hospital and followed closely behind.

Baldwin naturally had to go out of the city.

Before leaving, he told his wife and second daughter that they would stay in Antioch and wait for him to pick them up after the war.

Then Baldwin followed Gerald's men with the general and his guards.

Roger looked at the Edessa heavy cavalry passing by.

These people are also equipped with cavalry guns, heavy chain armor, and cavalry with kite-shaped shields.

Their shields are painted in two colors, red on top and white on the bottom.

Their horses were dressed in dark blue cloth armor with iron sheets.

Unlike the Antioch heavy cavalry, these people were not equipped with long swords, and their secondary weapon was tomahawk.

At this time, Little Bosimund ran over.

He asked Roger for help and said, "Uncle, can you help Alice?

"She can't go home without driving away the Turks who blocked the way."

Roger understood that this kid must have been ecstasy by Alice.

But he did not refuse.

Although this matter has nothing to do with him, and he has reached Antioch, the nominal employer, Boschmond, no longer has the right to ask him to do anything.

But Roger felt that this was a good opportunity to have a deeper understanding of the customs and customs here.

After all, if I take over as the King of Jerusalem in the future, I will definitely encounter similar events often.
