Lord, he is not a man [infrastructure]

Che Ying's intuition was correct. He received news on the way that there were riots in many places in the Principality.

At the beginning of these riots, only the lords or nobles of a certain territory were killed, some only killed one or two leaders, and some could kill seven or eight.

However, these dead nobles and lords are not good things. Seizing land, increasing taxes, forcing civilians to become serfs, and robbing men and women are all common things. Among these people, what kind of people cook children to eat, force people to jump through fire hoops for fun, Throw people into snake dens to raise snakes, extract human bone marrow to make medicine, dig out fetuses to sacrifice to gods, release blood to make salt, peel skins to make human skin paper, use human fat to make ointment... etc. Only you can't think of it Yes, there is nothing they can't do.

Usually, the people in these places are oppressed heavily, exploited and oppressed too hard, and each of them has become insensitive, waiting to die while alive, and they don't know how to resist.But when the lords and nobles who oppressed them, including some stewards, died, and then someone provoked them, these people turned into mobs in an instant, and they rushed into the noble mansion or lord mansion to burn, kill and loot.

One person does this, two people do this, and more and more people are finally involved in the riots.

Che Ying's convoy also encountered such mobs on the way, they have turned into robbers, but there are more pedestrians in Che Ying, those mobs saw them, wandered around for a while, but still did not come over.

When Che Ying rushed to Luma City, the Luma Dagong was angry with the ministers.

Grand Duke Luma has a daughter, whom he cherishes very much.

This daughter married an earl with the largest territory in the principality, but the relationship between the grand duke's daughter and her husband was very bad.

The earl loves beautiful women, and if he walks in the territory, whichever beauty he sees, he will directly enjoy himself in place, without any compensation in the end.In the words of the earl, it means that all his subjects belong to him, and he is willing to enjoy these women. Instead of resisting, these women should kneel down and be grateful.

The Grand Duke’s daughter deeply hated her husband messing around outside, but instead of taking action against her husband, she vented her anger on those poor women.All women who were possessed by her husband, she would send someone to flog them, and cut off their noses and ears.

Later, the grand duke's daughter actually ordered the entire territory that the girl's nose must be cut off after birth.

The citizens were unwilling, so some people went to their homes to beat, smash, loot and burn them. Both men and women were branded and turned into slaves, and the men were castrated, and the women's noses were cut and their faces were branded.Anyone who dared to escape would be dealt with in the same way after being caught.

Apart from ordinary peasants, some common people with relatively high status and wealth can use money to buy the right to retain noses, with a minimum of five gold coins.

The earl is also perverted. He even found it funny when his wife gave such an order. Not only did he not stop it, but he also developed a more perverted way of playing on this basis.

The couple and the people who followed them were all dead. They were killed in a public area, and when they died, they were dismembered alive.

No one knows who killed them.

The most frightening thing is that when people found out that the couple had died, they didn't respond at first, but when they did, the couple's corpses were eaten by the locals.

Afterwards, the children born to the couple did not escape the revenge of the local people, and they all died miserably.

The Grand Duke received the news that the bones of his daughter and grandson could not be found.

Now that territory is completely in chaos, and the citizens are afraid of being retaliated by the Grand Duke, so they flee in large numbers.

These fleeing citizens are like locusts, grabbing wherever they go.

The Grand Duke immediately ordered all the territories to send troops, ordering to kill and contain the mob no matter what.

But not long after the Grand Duke issued the order, news of riots broke out in other territories. In some places, the people did not riot, but the lord or the head of the family died, and these noble families themselves became chaotic. In order to rob the right of inheritance, the family members killed each other. kill.There are also those who play big, and directly lead the leaders to fight against their relatives.

When Che Ying heard the news, her face turned pale.

How long has it been?It seems that the flood in Sita County is a signal. Sita County started to be chaotic first, and then other places began to have problems.

Just at this time, the spies sent by the Principality of Luma to the Principality of Lanji sent back an important news. The Duke of Lanji abolished both his sons and re-supported a wife. A boy who looks very similar to Grand Duke Ji.

The mother of the two sons abolished by Grand Duke Lanji is the eldest daughter married by Grand Duke Luma.

Some time ago, when the lady passed away suddenly, Duke Luma was very upset. He suspected that his healthy daughter had died too strangely, so he even sent someone to beat Duke Lanji.

But how long has it been?Not only is his daughter gone, but his two grandchildren who are about to grow up are also gone.

Grand Duke Luma immediately wanted to start a war with the Principality of Lanji, but the ministers were all persuading him, saying that the chaos in the Principality should be quelled first, and the Principality of Lanji could only let it go first.

Duke Luma suspects that the chaos in the Principality was caused by the Principality of Lanji, otherwise how could it possibly erupt all of a sudden in a short period of time.

After Che Ying came back, he had a secret conversation with the Grand Duke, telling him the news he got from Tang Bo.

The Duke of Luma is more and more sure that the Lanji Principality is responsible. Originally, he wanted to hang Tang Bo to make an example to other lords, but now riots broke out, and Che Ying said that Tang Bo was seriously injured, so he would not survive. How long, the Duke of Luma will forget it.

Duke Luma also learned about the Lord of the Three Trees, Gu Ding, from Che Ying, but he didn't care much about this child who might be an illegitimate son or grandson. He heard that the development of Sanshu City was not bad, so he just nodded , thinking that the white deer collar can also be given to Gu Ding in the future, and this matter is over.

"Che Ying, get ready to put down the chaos." The Grand Duke ordered with a sullen face.

Che Ying bowed: "Yes."

The entire Luma Principality is busy with quelling chaos, but it is easy to start a riot, but it is not so easy to quell it.

The little white deer collar was just forgotten.

Tang Bo no longer sells paper, but instead devotes all his efforts to develop his own territory, which means to live his own life behind closed doors.Of course this is just an appearance.

After the lord of Hongshan Territory got the news from outside, he sat quietly for one night, and rushed to Bailu Collar the next day. After meeting Tang Bo, he offered the whole territory.

Tang Bo admired Lord Hongshan's courage and decisiveness very much, especially the opponent's ability to lead troops. He handed over the recruits he was training to Lord Hongshan.

So far, Bailuling has two clear generals, namely Shan Qiu and Zhen Cheng.

The hill leads the recruits, and the town leads the slave soldiers.

Of course, slave soldiers are no longer called slave soldiers, but have become the Second Regiment of the White Deer Army.What the hill leads is a group.

The white deer collar also has its own official flag, which is a white deer leaping on the blue waves. The white deer has wings made of flames. The pattern on the back is wheat ears. The body is surrounded by wind swirls. A pair of antlers are as sharp as blades. There are also bone spurs on its hooves, its tail is like a scorpion's tail, and it holds the herb larkspur that can stop bleeding and reduce inflammation in its mouth, and there is a silver star symbol in the middle of its forehead.

In order to ensure that the riots outside would not subside so quickly, Tang Bo secretly supported three large-scale organizations.

One of them is the disaster relief army led by the old lord of the town.The other two, one was secretly formed by Gu Ding, and the other was an army led by an unfavorable son of a viscount.

The disaster relief army led by the old lord of the town was mainly to cause trouble for the princess of Sita County, to fight guerrilla warfare with him, and make the whole Sita County uneasy.

Anshen, the owner of Sita County, originally wanted to send someone to trouble Bailuling, and wanted to go to Bailuling to rob him, but he couldn't spare to do other things after being made such a fuss by the disaster relief army.

During this period, Dou Yu volunteered to come to the old lord of the town. He knew the father and son of the An family and knew many secrets of the An family.

Gu Ding's team mainly recruited refugees and wandering generals. While recruiting people, he trained them outside.

Gu Ding missed Tang Bo very much. He slipped back twice, and every time he saw Tang Bo, he would stick to him and show off his height and muscles.

Gu Ding has grown up, he has absorbed a lot of blood and essence, and he has grown very fast. The skinny appearance before has been replaced by a moderate amount of muscle, and his height has risen again, already more than 1.8 meters.

It's a pity that the white deer collar has too few manpower to lead the army. When Gu Ding came back, his army outside could only be carried by Shan Lie alone.Although Mountain Hunter has grown up very quickly, his military talents are far inferior to his ability to play illusions.

Every time Gu Ding came back, he couldn't stay for two days, and had to leave in a hurry.

Because of getting together less and leaving more, Tang Bo didn't notice the change in Gu Ding's feelings for him at all, but felt that the child became more clingy when he grew up.

Gu Ding hated the pain of being separated from Tang Bo and not being able to see each other very much. He searched for Tumo Cultists everywhere, either to win over or coerce and lure them, and tried every means to learn the magic knowledge of the Demon Race. He wanted to find a A way to meet Tang Bo frequently without traveling.

But not everyone in the Tumojiao has a lot of demon knowledge. On the contrary, there are very few people who understand this valuable knowledge.

Gu Ding's anxious state was sensed by a certain existence, and the demon soul appeared, saying that it could teach Gu Ding the knowledge of the demon clan, including the space magic he wanted to learn most.The condition is to wait for Gu Ding to learn it, then let it go.

In order to show that it really wants to do fair trade without any bad intentions, Demon Soul offered to sign a contract of equality and mutual assistance.

Let's talk about another team, the son of the unfavorable viscount was originally named Weng Fei, yes, the waste of waste.From this name, we can also see his family's attitude towards him.

Weng Fei changed his name to Weng Fei, and he took the counterattack style. He took the initiative to introduce a mysterious person, killed his father and two elder brothers, and with the help of the mysterious person, he gathered a group of people to compete for the territory with other brothers and sisters. that power.

After killing all the threatening brothers and sisters, Weng Fei did not stop fighting. He knew that his position as the lord would definitely not be secure, and the lords of the surrounding territories wanted to take advantage of the opportunity when they saw their chaos. Lead people to kill the surrounding territories first, and plunder more food and supplies.

With these three teams making noise outside and drawing everyone's attention away, Tang Bo can free up his hands to do more things.

Tang Bo came to a mountain nest, where there is a newly built military camp.

However, what stayed in this barracks was not the white deer leading the new army, nor the slave soldiers, but the three thousand elite green hemp soldiers who had disappeared.

When Tang Bo received the news that Che Ying had brought [-] soldiers over, he took Xiaotian and a large number of his men to look for the [-] elite while Che Ying was waiting for his return.

Originally, he wanted to use the soul-devouring characteristics of Xiaotian and Soul-devouring Saltworm to kill all three thousand soldiers.

But seeing these three thousand soldiers, Tang Bo was a little bit reluctant.This is the real elite, everyone spends a lot of money to cultivate it, the orders are forbidden, the body is murderous, and the wooden armor and weapons on the body are all complete.

It would be a pity to kill such [-] soldiers, but if they stay, one of them may cause backlash.

But after careful observation, Tang Bo discovered that these soldiers all had one common characteristic. They were not slave soldiers but they were better than slave soldiers. They were all trained to be machines.They only obey the orders of their leaders, and they do what the leaders tell them to do.Even if they are asked to commit suicide, they will not hesitate.

And the way the leader of this team controls these soldiers is not because of his accumulated prestige, nor because of his different identities, but because he uses food.

Every morning the soldiers were given a gnocchi made of gluten-containing flour mixed with wild vegetables and a little salt.

When Tang Bo observed them, he found that these soldiers only had some expression fluctuations on their faces when they got the dumplings every morning, but they didn't respond when they ate another pig food in the afternoon.

Out of curiosity, he stole two dumplings for inspection.

He has the ability of photographic memory, and has been working hard to learn and memorize all kinds of knowledge here since he came here, including various herbs.

Xiaotian is also an existence with a very rich accumulation of knowledge. After Tang Bo made an initial judgment, Xiaotian flew around the dumpling again, tasted a little, and spit it out.

There is a herb in this dumpling, which is not addictive, but eating it will give people a sense of satisfaction and happiness.

Xiaotian and Tang Bo speculated that these soldiers should have been trained with some special methods, such as giving them long-term brainwashing education similar to hypnosis in a state of hunger and distress, and then rewarding them with this kind of dumpling soaked in herbs. They were trained from humans to dogs.

In the end, Tang Bo did not kill these soldiers, but let Xiaotian's men drill into the soldiers' brains, causing their consciousness to become hazy, and then asked Xiaotian to give orders to the soul-devouring salt worms, and the soul-devouring salt worms would then affect these soldiers.

In the end the soldiers all went with him.

Only the leader of the army was killed by Tang Bo and then his body was destroyed.

After Tang Bo brought these soldiers back, he spent a lot of time with them. To put it nicely, he re-cultivated their humanity and transformed them from dogs into humans.To put it bluntly, it is to re-brainwash them and implant the concept that I am their new leader into their brains.

With the cooperation of soul-devouring salt bugs and sufficient food every day, these soldiers are gradually "waking up".

When they knew how hateful the original leader and Duke Luma were to them, how much they liked and admired Tang Bo who had given them back their thoughts.Moreover, Tang Bo can keep each of them full, and he will give them the best treatment when they are injured, instead of starving them like the original army leader. He will only give them dumplings when they are rewarded. Feel what is contentment and happiness.

But such satisfaction and happiness are false, and they still don't have enough to eat.If seriously injured or ill, it will be discarded immediately.

Tang Bo didn't want to waste these [-] elites. He kept instilling in these soldiers that the White Deer Collar is their homeland, where they can live happily after getting married and starting a business. Their mission is to protect their homeland, and to protect their homeland is to protect themselves. .

And this kind of concept is something these three thousand soldiers have never been exposed to before. They have been ordered to protect the Grand Duke and obey the command of the Grand Duke. They are the knife in the Grand Duke's hand and the dog he is leading. Whatever they do they must do.

But now Tang Bo asked them to protect themselves, their families, and their homes.

The three thousand elite soldiers have learned to think, and they can naturally tell who is good to them.

Soon, Tang Bo took this elite group that was completely devoted to him under his command and became the garrison army of the White Hart collar.They do not participate in the city defense of the entire territory, they are only responsible for daily training and training recruits, but once a war occurs, they are the backbone of the White Hart Territory's guardian force.

At the same time, they also obeyed Tang Bo and did some work of transporting supplies.

In the summer of the following year, the Duke of Lanji declared war on the Duke of Luma. The reason for the declaration of war was that the Duke of Luma sent people to assassinate the newly married wife of the Duke of Lanji and his child.

The Duke of Luma is extremely angry, he has long wanted to start a war against the Principality of Lanji, but because of the chaos in the Principality, he has been busy all year to quell the chaos, but it seems that someone is deliberately against him, it is always here. Calm down, there is another commotion over there.

He wanted to unite the territorial forces of the entire principality to quell the chaos, but in order to protect themselves, those lords either only sent a few soldiers and provided him with a small amount of food, or completely ignored his orders on the grounds that their own territories were also in trouble.

He was not surprised that the Principality of Lanji suddenly went to war against him, he was just annoyed.

Although he wanted to kill Grand Duke Lanji, his new wife and new children, couldn't he just do it?

Who would have thought that in less than a year, the new lady and the child she brought would die.The Duke of Luma thought very darkly, maybe it was the thief of the Duke of Lanji who called to catch the thief. In order to find a reason to start a war against the Duke of Luma, he simply killed his new wife and illegitimate son.

And the spies sent by Grand Duke Luma also sent him a secret message, that Grand Duke Lanji actually has another lover and illegitimate child, and the new wife and her son are the targets.

No matter what, the Principality of Lanji also started war against the Principality of Luma.

While appealing to the king for help, the despondent Luma Duke had to deal with internal and external wars, and he seemed to be a few years older in a few days.

Tang Bo pulled up a caravan at this time, planning to go from the river to Qingdou Principality on the opposite side of the Baowang River.

Ahead of Qingdou Principality is the capital of Tonglei Kingdom.

The Luma Principality, Green Bean Principality, Blue Millet Principality, and Purple Pepper Principality all belong to the Tonglei Kingdom. Judging from the terrain, the capital of the Tonglei Kingdom seems to be wrapped in the four principalities.

The capital of Tonglei Kingdom plus the surrounding villages and towns occupies a very large area, equivalent to the land of a principality.

Tang Bo went to the capital of Tonglei at this time, first to avoid making cars behind closed doors, secondly to trade more materials, and thirdly to offer papermaking skills to the King of Tonglei in exchange for the qualification to do business in the entire Tonglei country.

Now business between principalities must be approved. Businessmen from other principalities and countries have to pay very high taxes when they enter other principalities and countries. Sometimes even if you are willing to pay taxes, people may not be willing to let you enter the country.

But in the same country, if there is a merchant's approval issued by the king himself, the caravan can come and go freely in the whole country, and there is no need to pay a tax after passing through a duchy or territory, because the tax of this caravan will be directly paid to the king. to the king.

At the same time, the caravan with the king's business order can go to other countries, similar to the official caravan, without worrying about being swallowed up by people as traveling merchants or robbers.

To go to Baowanghe, you have to pass through Sita County, but at this time, Sita County has been beaten into a sieve, and the princess Anshen can only guard the Anhe Territory, and almost all other sites have been beaten down by the old lord of the town.

Anshen also asked for help from Duke Luma, but Duke Luma was too busy to take care of himself at the moment, how could he spare manpower to help him quell the riot in the county?

Even the Duke of Luma sent someone to contact the old lord of the town secretly, expressing his willingness to hand over the position of Princess Sita County to the old lord of the town, as long as the old lord of the town immediately mobilized [-] troops and the corresponding food and grass after taking the position of princess To Luma City.

So Tang Bo went to Baowang River by boat again, without encountering any obstacles along the way.

But this time he was very low-key, and he was still on a big ship, but the whole ship was gray and looked very inconspicuous.Tang Bo also deliberately made some places old and broken.

But it was only superficially old and inconspicuous. In fact, the firmness, safety and threat of these ships were much higher than the previous big ship.
