Lord of Riding and Slashing

Chapter 286 Entering the City

Nord rode a war horse into Twen City alone. When passing the city gate, Nord could still smell a strong smell of blood, just like the one on the battlefield just now. How fierce the battle in Wencheng is, it can keep the bloody smell here.

This ancient city has been established for hundreds of years. It is said that it existed before the founding of the Principality of Besse. Of course, it may not have been called Twen City before, but no matter how the name is changed, the city has always stayed in the Nothing will change here.

Looking at the slightly ancient city walls of Tewen City, Nord was a little curious. Although it was not the first time he came to Tewen City, compared with the last time he passed by in a hurry, this time his identity and mood were different. , Nuode is no longer the prodigal son who came out of the embarrassment of Belon City back then, Nuode is now a prince who can separate one side.

And this time he also saved the ancient city, which made Nord feel even more happy. Walking through the central avenue of Twen, every civilian on the roadside has a happy expression. They are all disaster victims. The expression of Yu Sheng, because once the city of Tewen is breached by the rebels, the civilians living here will not have a good end.

Don't say they are civilians, they will not be involved in the battle. In this dark Middle Ages, the concept of soldiers and robbers is not so clear. There are very few soldiers in the army, and nobles like Xiang Nord who have strict requirements on the discipline of soldiers are simply rare.

Moreover, in this era, after a tragic siege battle, massacre has almost become a tradition, and it can even be said to be a routine method for noble lords to reward and motivate soldiers. There is no moral constraint at all. Even ordinary soldiers have become accustomed to it, and no one has ever cared about the feelings of those innocent civilians, because they have no right to speak at all.

Nord looked at these excited civilians, and felt a little uncomfortable. What they celebrated was not that Tewen City was defended, but that they were able to avoid the slaughter of weapons. If Tewen City was broken, it would not affect them. Maybe they won't be as happy as they are now. After all, survival is not easy.

Nord sorted out his mood. These things cannot be changed by himself. What Nord can do is to let the civilians under his rule live happily and happily. Only with great ability can he do as many things. Now Nord There is no ability to save the people of Li and the people in dire straits.

The war horse lightly treads on the road of Twen City, and it seems to be able to feel the joy of the surrounding civilians, because Nord can also feel its happy mood, but the road condition of the central avenue of Twen City is not as good as Nord imagined, because Due to the years of disrepair, Nord had to be extremely careful when riding a war horse. If he didn't see the potholes, he might fall off the horse.

Then Nord had no choice but to lead the horse forward, because the road in Tewen City disappointed Nord, and the situation here is not as good as Fort Isaac, as Nord heard before, there was a special Marquis Wen planned to renovate the road, but after half of the repair, he found that he had no money.

Therefore, the roads in this section of Tewen City are still the same as before, and have not been renovated at all, but it is different when entering the noble area. It is completely different from the streets outside. Nord can see a clear dividing line, a noble The dividing line with humbleness is so clearly engraved on the ground.

The aristocratic district does not feel very good to Nord, because there are almost no people here, and the streets are deserted, which is very different from the scene next door. It seems that the news of the victory of Twen City has nothing to do with them. Similarly, no one cheered, and no one celebrated. At this moment, they showed the indifference of the nobles to the fullest.

The reason why the roads in the aristocratic area have been repaired once is that Nord can already gallop. The roads here are built with stones, and the cost of money is much higher than the roads built by Nord. The roads built by Nord in the mountains and forests For the mountain road, if the cost is based on this, even Grand Duke Besse may go bankrupt, so technology is the primary productive force (and so is consumption).

Because he couldn't accept the atmosphere of the aristocratic area, Nord didn't stay too long. He rode his horse and went straight to the castle of the Marquis of Twen, which was the messy civilian area just now. The noisy atmosphere not only infected Warhorse, but also unconsciously infected Nord.

Therefore, the gap in this indifferent scene in the aristocratic district made Nord a little unacceptable. Compared with these exquisite buildings, Nord still prefers the human touch, and the fireworks in the world are better than all kinds of scenery.

The castle of the Marquis of Tewen is located in the center of the aristocratic area of ​​Tewen City. It is the last line of defense of the Tewen family. A strong castle can allow the enemy to resist for more time, but if the city of Tewen falls, The castle is also hardly spared, so this can only bring them some comfort and show off.

When he came outside the castle, Nord saw that the Gustav brothers and sisters had been waiting here for a long time, especially the little girl Stina, who saw Nord on the horse and waved to Nord, There was a smile on the corner of Nord's mouth. It seemed that the war did not affect this innocent little girl.

Nord handed the reins to the servant who was waiting aside, and then smiled and greeted the two of them, especially Stina, who rushed to Nord's side to express her gratitude to Nord.

"Cousin Nord, thank you for coming to save us. It turns out that you are so powerful that you actually solved all the rebels outside that caused father a headache."

Nord quickly waved his hand, this is not the credit of Nord alone, the troops of the Marquis of Twen and Gustav also participated in the battle, Nord will not put all the credit on himself, although Nord It is indeed a great contribution. Without Nord, there would be no victory in this battle, but Nord still needs to be humble.

"It's not due to me alone. Uncle and Gustav also contributed a lot. We defeated all the rebels outside the city together. It's not due to me alone. Don't say that. , I will go to your father later, if he finds out that I put all the credit on myself, he will punish me."

"No, what he just told me is all thanks to you, Cousin Nord, he won't lie to me."

Stina wrinkled her little nose and waved her hand in the direction of the castle. Since she didn't know much about wars, after her father told her that it was the credit of Nord, she thought that Cousin Nord was very important. Great, solved a problem that neither his father nor his brother had solved.

There are some black lines on Nord's head. I didn't expect such remarks to come from the mouth of the Marquis of Twen. It seems that he is very satisfied with Nord's performance, otherwise he would not have said such things to Stina.
