    Chapter 42 Coast, coast!

    When March comes, spring has arrived.  This grassland was covered with green grass. The animals that had been hibernating for a long time finally had something to eat. They ran out. This grassland ruled by the decadent nobles actually had a trace of life that had not been seen for a long time.

    At this time, there were rumors throughout the Lanying Kingdom that enemies on the sea would invade.  But few believed it.  It wasn't that the people who spread the news didn't provide enough evidence, but that the nobles suppressed it.

    If it is really proven that enemies at sea will invade, then arms will definitely be needed.  How could these nobles spend money on armaments?  It's enough that their military can bully the people, so why do they spend money to develop armaments?  Moreover, isn¡¯t this necessarily a fight?  Even if there is a fight, it may not be me who goes to the front line.

    The scary thing is that almost all nobles have this idea.

    At this time, there were three people in the Lanying Kingdom, no, four people now, who made moves that affected the future history of the entire Lanying Kingdom.

    A deputy leader of the White Stone Knights requested an order and took three thousand White Stone Knights to the coastline of Lansos Plains.

    A country girl, after hearing those rumors, began to persuade people to arm themselves.

    A son of a nobleman killed his father and became the new lord of that place.  The strange thing is that he actually started to prepare his weapons, as if he was going to fight.

    Finally, a newly promoted nobleman trained a thousand Teutonic warriors.

    ¡­¡­

    At this time, two fishermen were fishing boredly on the shoreline of Stephank.  At this time, the temperature of the sea began to slowly increase, and the fish began to return.  If you don¡¯t fish now, you may have no chance in the future.

    They sat on the boat, swaying and waiting for the fish to enter the net.  Due to the pressure of life, their meshes are getting smaller and smaller, and they have to wait a long time before they can catch fish.

    ¡°I don¡¯t know if their descendants can still catch fish in this sea area.  Several species of fish were extinct at this time, but under the high pressure of the local nobles, these people could only speed up the pace of fishing.  If they don't take advantage of this season to catch more fish, they may really starve to death due to heavy taxes.

    It¡¯s not without resistance.  It was just that the people who resisted began to build armed forces, and later they actually united with the nobles to oppress those who were their former kind.  People's lives are becoming more and more tense.

    I heard that the lord of Sylva is a different kind of person. He builds an army and creates people's livelihood.  Many wanderers who came to him were provided with adequate food.  The number of people who starved to death under his leadership was the fewest.  But he seems to be no different from the other nobles. He has killed four lords near him through overt or covert means.  At this time, he had only been knighted for a few months, and there were already rumors that he was going to become a baron.

    Most of the nobles with this kind of scheming belief believe that the good reputation under his rule at this time is mostly faked by himself.  This is a method used when new nobles rise.  Some people lamented that if the descendants of this knight were not mediocre, perhaps a powerful viscounty would appear in this place a hundred years later.

    Of course, no one would notice at this time. In February, a few elves came to the knight's territory, and then the short-haired woman who had been following him disappeared.

    There are even rumors that the knight has Teutonic warriors under his command, and the number has reached a thousand.  At the beginning, people were still doubtful, but now they don't believe it at all.  A thousand Teutonic warriors, with this force he would have been a baron already.

    At this time, the two fishermen who were fishing saw what seemed to be ships approaching on the coastline.  Could it be a passing merchant ship?  But this place has no specialties. How could such a big ship come?

    The two fishermen looked at each other strangely, and they both saw a trace of confusion in each other's eyes.

    ¡­¡­

    Two days later, in Silva Castle, the young elf noble was looking at the latest intelligence.

    At this time, the door in front of him was ¡®touched!  ¡¯ opened, and then a female knight wearing golden armor walked in angrily.  After that, she punched the table in front of the elf boy and shouted, 'Dang!  ¡¯ a loud noise.  At this time, the tea cup placed on the table suddenly fell to the ground. The valuable tea set broke into pieces the first moment it touched the ground. The red black tea immediately spilled all over the floor, dyeing the floor red.  .

    The elf boy stood up and said to the panicked maid on the side: "Clean up this place." Then he turned his head and looked at the angry Knight of Glory: "What's the matter?"

    "What can I do for you?"?Clear?  "The blonde woman snorted coldly. She raised her head and looked at the indifferent elf boy in front of her, "Why don't you save them?  "

    She took the battle report in her hand and punched the table in front of Avis.  Under that powerful force, Avis seemed to hear a faint crisp sound from the table.

    The elf boy just glanced at the color of the battle report and knew what it said.  Because he also had a copy of this battle report, and he had studied it carefully just now.

    With a sigh, the elf boy slowly sat on the chair, took the teacup handed by the maid at the side, and took a slow sip.

    "Pirates robbed a village." The blond woman's breathing gradually became faster. "After the robbery, they slaughtered the entire village! More than a thousand people died." The blond woman walked over.  In front of the elf boy, she lowered her body and looked at the indifferent elf boy, "You have already guessed it, but why don't you save them!"

    "It's my turn?" The elf boy raised his head and put the teacup on the table.  He looked at the angry Heloise, and then waved his hand to make the maids retreat.

    "I want to see what reason you have."

    "First, that place is 1,600 kilometers away from us." Ives took a sip of the newly brewed black tea, and the slightly hot water fell into his body down his throat.  "If we want to go there, we need to go through the territories of three big nobles. You will let a regular army of a thousand people pass through your territory? Especially when this noble's reputation in the noble circle is not good."

    Ives paused and continued: "To take a step back, we have really arrived at the Sidik coastline. What I want to say is that this coastline can extend from Bukes to Anariel."

    "The coastline is so long. Even if I'm a god, I can't possibly know where the pirates are going to attack. I can indeed designate a few most likely places, but that will distract my small forces, and may even be blocked by local areas.  All the pirates with superior strength were wiped out. I am not a god, and I cannot rush to the front line immediately."

    "Moreover, it is impossible for me to agree to divide the troops. The Vikings have very strong fighting power. If it is a battle on a regular battlefield, I can only have some advantage by gathering all the Teutonic warriors. Fighting guerrillas is another matter.  But it is even more impossible to save that village by fighting guerrillas.¡±

    The elf boy put the tea cup on the table, then looked at Heloise, "Besides, their death is valuable."

    "Is it valuable?" Heloise also calmed down a little at this time. She knew that being able to save these people was just her beautiful wish. If they really went, then it might be true as Avis said  In that way, no one was saved, but the army they finally built was lost.

    "This country needs someone to wake it up." Ives said solemnly, "If we really save that village, what will be the consequences? Let me tell you - a nobleman has traveled through the lives of three great noblemen.  Territory, and then defeated a group of pirates. After that, they went back triumphantly. After that, there were all kinds of conspiracy theories. It was impossible for anyone to believe what the noble who defeated the pirates said that an enemy was about to invade. "

    "But if this village is massacred, then the whole country will be shocked. Because it can't be pirates. If a noble stands up at this time and says there is going to be a war. Believe me, public opinion will still say this is impossible, but everyone will secretly prepare  .¡±

    "At that time, regular troops will be deployed on the coastline, and our navy will also patrol"

    Heloise¡¯s face became a little more relaxed. Indeed, as Avis said, he had foreseen almost everything in the future.  Of course, Ives didn't say anything.  The navy and regular army will be easily wiped out in the next half month.  Then came the great defeat of the White Stone Knights.  At that time, the Lanying Kingdom really became nervous.

    But chaotic cooperation, and even fighting without cooperation, caused this country that had not experienced war for a long time to retreat steadily.  If it weren't for those three people, this country would have perished within three months.

    This is no joke.  The Battle of Cambridge was almost an irreproducible miracle. It was this miracle that gave the Lanying Kingdom a chance to breathe.

    ¡°Before the turning point of the Battle of Cambridge, Ives would not make any big moves.  The number of Vikings who invaded for the first time was about 5,000, and then 20,000 people would come to this place.

    Note that it is not the kind of 20,000 noble private soldiers.  But twenty thousand formal professionals.

    In comparison, a thousand Teutonic warriors are just a dish.

    (Finally are we about to start?) Ives took a deep breath of the air that had become a little warm, and thenHe turned to the sky.

    ps1: It¡¯s finally about to beginthat¡¯s what I want to say.  The next plot will be very exciting, with kings, demons, sages, and wars.  Light and darkness, love and blood, justice and evil, corruption and redemption.  It just depends on whether I can control it.

    PS2: Please collect it!  !
