Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning
Chapter 544 Occupation
Moorish city.
McCann drove Sanborn's knights and cooperated with the forces of Misty City to capture this enemy city near the border with almost zero casualties.
At this time, they had captured the lord's castle, and standing on the highest tower of the castle, they could overlook the entire outline of the city below the mountain.
This city is located on the main road from Dragon City to Border Mist City.
Whether in wartime or in peacetime, there is never a shortage of merchants arriving at Misty City through here, which also boosts the economy of Moorish City and makes this baronial city rich.
If nothing else, the urban population of more than 100,000 proves everything.
"Although I heard that the economy of Moorish City is not bad, this castle is still not that good. Compared with Mist Castle, it is more than one level behind."
Redal smiled and nodded. As a holding power, he did not contribute much in this war, giving McCann a chance.
"After all, Mist City is the focus of competition between the two countries. It was a big city in the empire era, and Ural was a border count. His castle is naturally more gorgeous than this one."
As a surrenderer who was relatively familiar with the enemy's situation, Sanborn also explained the reasons.
It turns out that the Baron of Moorish City has been oppressed by Count Ural for a long time.
Although the city's economy was good, the agreement signed during its early development was very unfriendly to Baron Moore, which also resulted in a lot of money falling into the pockets of Count Ural.
A few people chatted about the situation in Moore City for a while, and Redal began to make next arrangements.
"Plácido, you will take the people to capture the surrounding villages tomorrow. I think the agricultural economy in Moore City is good, and there is a lot of farmland outside the city. These must be captured intact.
This is your first time acting alone. Remember to tell your soldiers not to harm the people, destroy their houses, or plunder their property. These are things that adults are concerned about, so don’t get confused! "
"I understand Commander!"
Placido said solemnly.
Since joining Luo Ning's command, Placido has been a little surprised at how Luo Ning's army managed not to rob at will?
You know, in previous wars, when the noble army conquered a place, it would basically bring chaos for a period of time.
Looting property, snatching women, and wanton killing are all common occurrences.
This was the first time he had seen an army like Luo Ning's. Not only would they not destroy at will, they would even lend a helping hand to some civilians who were injured.
Placido didn't understand at first, was he here to fight or to do good deeds?
But as he understood Luo Ning's policy strategy in the territory, he probably understood.
It turns out that the Duke regarded the places he conquered as his own territory, and the people living there were his subjects.
In order to restore order and resume production in the territory as soon as possible, we should do as little as possible to drink poison to quench thirst.
After all, how much wealth an ordinary tenant farmer or even a commoner's family can have is not as much as the reward Luo Ning gave him after the war.
"McKen, you take people to interrogate the surrendered nobles, keep the useful ones, and demote the others as prisoners. In addition, arrange for people to count the population of Moore City to maintain public security here."
McCann grinned, "Okay, leave it to me!"
Unfortunately, Tom's griffon appeared outside the castle. After he saw Redal and others, he landed immediately.
"Commander, you are so fast. I didn't expect that Moor City has already been captured in just over ten days!"
As for Luo Ning's personal bodyguard, although Tom's strength is not high, his status is not low.
Redal smiled and said: "Moore City has little defensive power, and it won't take much effort to defeat it. You came here suddenly this time. Does the Duke have something to explain?"
"Um!"
He wrote from his arms the letter that Carolina sent to the Wubei Territory, "Commander, Your Majesty the Duke asked McCann to return to the Purple Thunder Territory, cooperate with Petro, Melonika and others from the Wushan Territory, and send a message to the Purple Thunder Territory. The Principality of Vera launches an attack."
McCann's eyes lit up as he was about to go on a mission, and he said in surprise: "Are we going to go to war with the Principality of Vera?"
Tom nodded, "Yes, Duke Andrea betrayed the kingdom and joined forces with Garrett to murder the Duke, his wife and Elrond, and was eventually killed by the Duke."
Redal raised his eyebrows and said, "My lord, you dare to kill even the Duke, which shows that something big happened in the capital. Tom, if you have any news over there, tell us."
Placido was a little shocked. In his opinion, Luo Ning was so brave that he would kill even the Duke.
But what Tom said next made him completely dumbfounded.
Not to mention Placido, even Redal and McCann were shocked. In just over ten days, so many earth-shattering things happened in the capital.
"Duke Ronin is actually a legend!"
Placido had not learned this information until this moment, and he was a little excited.
He actually became a follower of the legendary strongman. It was really wise to surrender at the beginning!
"Your Excellency Tom, has the Duke now become the King of Alduin Kingdom?" Placido asked quickly.
"That's not true."
Tom admired: "My lord has always kept his promises. Even though His Majesty Bruno is dead, your lord still fulfills his duties as the conqueror Duke. He will establish his own country after conquering the Dragon City as agreed with His Majesty!"
Tom's eyes were full of admiration when he spoke.
This is the throne. If the Duke wants it, he can definitely sit on it.
But he gave up. What kind of courage is this?
He is determined to be a man who keeps his promises. No, he also wants to use the Duke's deeds to teach his children and let his descendants become such people.
"The Duke's courage makes me surrender!" Placido also praised.
Rydar and McKen nodded at the same time.
"Since the Lord insists on fulfilling his promise, we, as followers, must also work hard to take down the Dragon City as soon as possible!"
Rydar's words refreshed everyone.
"McKen, you've always said that you have strength but nowhere to use it. Now the Lord will transfer you back to the Purple Thunder Territory. You will probably be in charge of the eastern front in the future. Don't let the Lord down!"
McKen nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Commander, I won't let the Lord down!"
He rubbed his hands, "I've been looking forward to the war with the Principality of Vera for a long time. Finally, I can show my strength!"
Rydar also laughed, "I will steadily advance southward. Let's see whether I will take down the Dragon City first, or you will take down the Duke Andrea's castle first."
With that, McCann's enthusiasm increased by 30%.
Take down a city, don't lose a city.
The time for attacking a city is far less than the time it takes to deal with a series of affairs after taking down the city. After all, it also involves the rest of the soldiers, the selection of city government officials, the arrangement of government affairs, the expansion of the army, public security management, etc.
Rydar took down the Moore City today. If he wants to continue to march south, it should be a matter of one or two months at the earliest. (End of this chapter)
