The Wizard’s Fairy Tale

Chapter 572 ?? Killed 7 with 1 blow

William's manpower is seriously insufficient, and his background is too shallow, so the enemy's land cannot be occupied. It just takes his strength away.

However, people lost ground.

Land may not be needed, but people must be in their hands.

After several victories, William had many more prisoners in his hands, and even some noble prisoners with high status.

After they fell into William's hands, they were still clamoring for the dignity due to nobles, so begging for hammers, William sent them to clean the toilet and pick up excrement.

All captives who fell into William's hands were obliged to work, without exception.

This group of failed aristocratic captives still refuses to do this kind of "humble" work, looking like they want to save face and risk their lives.

If they refuse to work, do they still have to support them and stay for the New Year?

William directly asked someone to dig a big hole, and then threw the group of nobles into the big hole, and then started throwing soil down, intending to bury them alive.

At first, the nobles were confident, thinking that William was just threatening them. They had seen and done this kind of thing a lot. How dare William alone go against the entire noble class?

But as the mud covered half of their bodies, the group of failed nobles realized that William was playing for real, so they started crying and begging for mercy, saying that they were willing to do some lowly jobs.

As long as a stubborn noble is still holding on there, refusing to compromise.

William's solution was also very simple. The other begging nobles picked it up, and the one with backbone and dignity was directly buried with loess.

The loess covered his neck, and when he was about to reach his mouth, he realized that William was not joking. The fear of death haunted his heart, and he suddenly panicked and wanted to beg for mercy.

But it was too late, William only gave one chance.

As a result, the other failed nobles watched the scene of the "stubborn" noble being buried alive, feeling a chill in their hearts.

It's strange that they can't be so sentimental when they are so high up in deciding other people's fate.

But when they became the people whose fate was determined, they began to panic, and they looked like the pariah they talked about. Where did they have the dignity of noble blood?

These captured nobles, in groups of five, began manual labor under the supervision of the overseer.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …

William's sudden burst of strength was beyond Prince Ferret's expectations.

After losing several battles in a row, Prince Ferret couldn't bear it anymore. He sent an envoy to find Prince Charles. After explaining the pros and cons, the two began to work together to kill William.

For the two of them, a weak William may be a good buffer zone between the territories of the two princes, but a strong Hanley collar is a dagger on their waists, which may kill them at any time.

Moreover, William's development is so rapid, if they do not have the help of their sinister brother behind him, they will never believe it.

In fact, it is true.

The Hanlai collar was built by William himself, brick by brick. Liszt has added icing on the cake, but it is by no means the cornerstone of the current prosperity of the Hanlai collar.

After the strength of the two princes merged, the army suddenly expanded to more than 18,000, surrounded the entire Hanlai collar from all directions, and slowly shrank, wanting to catch the turtle in one urn and catch them all in one go.

But how could William make them happy?

In this world where communication is very backward, communication with the village depends on shouting, and the connection between each other is not close enough, how can it be possible to completely surround William's Hanlai collar?

And this is William's chance!

One of the characteristics of the army led by William is that it comes and goes like the wind, the offensive is like fire, and it always bursts out suddenly, as if it can predict the future.

This is to give full play to the ability of the magic mirror.

And more insidiously,

William only grabbed Prince Ferrett's army and launched an attack, while Prince Charles' army did not move at all.

After several battles, the strength of Prince Ferret's army dropped drastically.

Originally, his army was hit by William several times, and now it is the same "treatment", but his brother Prince Charles' army has never been attacked.

Under such circumstances, Prince Ferrett's heart also became suspicious, suspecting something tricky.

Even if everything is just a coincidence, if his strength drops too much, it will also have an impact on his status.

With such thoughts in mind, Prince Ferrett began to work hard, and even retreated slowly, trying to let Prince Charles' army stand in front.

Prince Charles is just grumpy, but he is by no means a fool, and even his battlefield sensitivity is much stronger than that of Prince Ferret.

When he was attacked by William and Prince Ferret's army did not respond in time, Prince Ferret's behavior was quickly known to him.

Prince Charles was so angry that he roared furiously in the tent, cursed his two younger brothers loudly, and then without any discussion, he directly led the army back for more than ten miles, which was equivalent to withdrawing from the battlefield.

Prince Charles is gone, how can Prince Ferrett dare to face William's army?

Hastily led his troops back to his own territory, like a turtle shrunk into its shell!

The survival crisis of Hanlai's first territory was resolved in this way, so that the king's envoy who came belatedly didn't know what to do!

Mediation?

Seems to be.

Both Prince Charles and Prince Ferrett expressed to William through the king's special envoy their willingness to cease fighting and redeem the noble soldiers captured by William.

William's answer was very simple, truce was fine, and noble soldiers could be redeemed, but Prince Charles and Prince Frederick waged an unjust war against him, causing him to suffer unprecedented losses, so he had to lose money.

If there is no compensation, then he will and will only choose a prince's territory for endless harassment and violent attacks until one of the two sides completely falls.

This threat was simply rogue, but Prince Charles and Prince Ferrett had nothing to do with him, so they had to compromise again.

After some bargaining, the two princes compensated William with a total of 23,000 gold coins.

As for noble soldiers, according to the difference in status, the ransom price ranged from 1,000 gold coins to 50 gold coins.

For this item, William also contributed more than 6,000 gold coins.

William heard that when those noble soldiers were redeemed, the first thing they did was take a bath and enjoy delicious food.

As for what happened during the captive period, many of them are unwilling to recall it. It was an unbearable history.

The victors get compensation, the nobles get a ransom, and as for the ordinary soldiers, neither Prince Ferret nor Prince Charles advances.

In fact, these are said to be soldiers, but most of them are ordinary people who were forcibly recruited, and their combat effectiveness is average.

Only a small number of knights are the backbone of the army.

These people, whether they were the second sons of nobles, illegitimate children, or knight servants, had already been redeemed together.

Only ordinary people don't care about it.

According to the unspoken rules of this world, after the battle between the lords is over, this kind of ordinary soldiers will often be let go, because the food they consume far exceeds the value they produce.

The two princes originally thought that William would abide by this unspoken rule, but they didn't expect that William would not follow the script at all.

The captured ordinary soldiers were not let go, but were reduced to slaves, and then they were given food and shelter, and engaged in the most difficult urban construction work.

This actually caused the territories of the two princes to fall into a "labor shortage" after the war.

Yes, after repelling powerful enemies, making peace and obtaining a large amount of compensation, William invested all his gold coins in the construction of the city of New Nice.

The brick workshop, the cement firing room, and the farming fields are constantly expanding.

Pottery workshops, breeding gardens, fertilizer workshops, etc., have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

As the flow of people increased, special buildings such as theaters, libraries, and schools also took shape.

The concrete pavement of the two-way carriageway and the wide sewer have also started construction.

Now the entire city of New Nice is like a big construction site, with construction sites everywhere and dust everywhere.

But this instead attracted a large number of caravans enough to trade.

The whole city of New Nisai became lively.

For this reason, William also established the Chamber of Commerce in the city of New Nisai to deal with various merchants.

Louis, a middle-aged man, had no choice but to shoulder this important task for the time being!

At this time, the city of New Nice had a permanent population of 11,000 including slaves, and a floating population of more than 12,000. A relatively stable pyramid-shaped hierarchical structure had been formed.

Among the pyramids, the top one is undoubtedly William.

The second is relatively high-level managers like Louis and David.

Next up is enlisting as a Thunderfury member of the free folk or as a military member of another army.

During this war, at least a hundred people were reduced. In order to commend their achievements, all of them were granted the status of free citizens.

In several of William's armies, they are all free people.

The one with a lower status in Hanlai's collar was the old slave who followed him step by step. Some of them have obtained the status of free citizens, only a small number are still first-class slaves, and are on the verge of promotion at any time.

And those with the lowest status are the captives in the war. They belong to the lowest class of slaves, and they are engaged in the most dangerous and arduous work. In addition, they have to be educated about brainwashing every night.

But they have the most basic food and clothing security, and at the same time, the ascending channel will not be closed to them.

The changes in the city of New Nisai are rapid and visible to the naked eye.

The area where William's lord's villa is located has been expanded again.

The residential area and the administrative area were separated, and a new government affairs hall appeared, where Louis and others worked.

The increase in lime production led to an increase in cement production, allowing William to implement his plan to harden the concrete floors of the eight main roads and other secondary arterial roads in the entire New Nisai city.

Just this one act renews the image of the entire city of New Nise, and amazes the passing caravans.

Not to mention the entire Svakian Kingdom, even the entire continent, there are very few such wide and smooth road conditions.

As population and power grew, so did many institutions.

Thunderfury and several other armies are sweeping the surrounding environment and carrying out regular patrols to ensure that there is no soil for bandits to survive in the territory around William.

The safe environment and strong armed forces, in turn, attracted many nearby people to settle in William's territory.

They paid funds to William, the lord, to buy fields or engage in other businesses.

The larger the population, the stronger the power.

New Nice City is getting better and stronger.

But besides the fact that the two former princes next to each other didn't want to see this, Liszt, who was newly appointed in the palace, also didn't want to see this.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ...

During the mighty construction, time blows like the wind, and before you know it, summer is coming.

The holy light ruthlessly shone on the earth, turning the earth's skin red.

In a small border town in the kingdom of Avar bordering the wilderness plain.

On a sunny morning, a young tailor with delicate features was sitting at the table by the window, trying his best to do the work in hand.

At this time, a middle-aged peasant woman with a horse face walked up the street, but she spoke sweetly like a girl. She yelled as she walked, "I bought jam! It's good and cheap!"

The little tailor thought the sound was very pleasant, so he stuck his curly head out of the window and called out, "Come here, dear lady, your goods are wanted here!"

Carrying the heavy basket in her hand, the peasant woman stepped up the steps to the little tailor, and opened one jar after another according to his instructions. The little tailor examined each carefully, and held the jar up to his nose, sniffed it, and said at last, "Give me four ounces, my dear lady, or half a pound."

The middle-aged peasant woman with a horse face thought she had found a good buyer. After she weighed the little bit of jam that the little tailor asked for, she walked away muttering angrily.

"Bless the Lord of the Light," cried the little tailor, "these jams will give me a good appetite."

He took bread from the cupboard, cut a slice, and spread jam on it. "I know it won't be unpalatable," he said, "but I'll have to finish this vest before I eat it."

So, putting the bread with jam beside him, he continued to sew, feeling flattered, and the stitches got bigger and bigger with each stitch.

At this time, the sweet smell of jam attracted a group of flies gathered on the wall, and they settled on the bread one after another, wanting to taste this delicious delicacy.

"Where is your share?" The little tailor who was working suddenly found the group of uninvited guests, he was very angry, and said to drive the flies away.

But the flies are shameless rascals, they don’t consider the owner’s feelings at all, so they ignore what he said, and they refuse to leave. Instead, they call for friends, so more and more flies land on the bread.

This time, the little tailor became furious, grabbed a rough towel, and slammed down on the flies. The flies couldn't dodge it, and seven flies were killed in one fell swoop, and some flies even had their legs blown away. up.

"You are amazing!" The little tailor was overjoyed to see this achievement, and he said to himself, and couldn't help admiring his bravery. "The whole city should know about your feat."

The little tailor thought more and more vigorously, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. After saying that, he hurriedly cut a belt for himself—using the best fabric!

After sewing, embroider a few big and eye-catching characters on it—in the largest font: "Kill seven at once!"

"Not only the whole city," the little tailor looked at his masterpiece, the light in his eyes became brighter the more he looked at it, and he was proud of his "feat", he suddenly shouted, "we have to let people all over the world see it." Know!"

At this point, his heart was beating wildly with excitement, like a lamb's tail.
