"Warriors, charge!" Looking at the fleeing knights, Lin Fenghan took the lead and quickly pursued them regardless of his injuries. A large group of cavalry rushed into the scattered army in an irregular shape.
"Surrender!"
"Surrender!"
The cavalrymen shouted one after another, and the scattered army disappeared in a moment under the powerful impact and division.
"Baron, don't kill us! We are also helpless."
"It's all the fault of those ungrateful knights, we are innocent!" The militiamen who discarded their spears and swords knelt down and cried.
"I understand, my people, you are innocent. I will release you after interrogation. Now wait with peace of mind. I will interrogate the culprits and their minions among you." Lin Fenghan He dismounted and looked at the obedient farmers with emotion.
"Lord Baron, you are simply a born commander! To achieve a glorious victory with a weak position in such a magnificent war is so amazing." Kelande jumped from the horse to the ground tiredly, shaking his shoulders. praised.
"Lucky, I'm just lucky, not as powerful as you said." Lin Fenghan smiled modestly, only then did he realize how painful his hips and arms were, and how tired his whole body was.
"so tired!"
"I wonder how many enemies we killed in this war? How many casualties were there? How many people were captured?" Lin Fenghan frowned and looked at the sky, lying on the grass and asked tiredly.
¡°We¡¯ll find out if we go over and take a look!¡± Bertande followed Lin Fenghan¡¯s example and lay down on the grass, holding a grass root in his mouth and said leisurely.
"Oops! I almost forgot my duty." Lin Fenghan's heart suddenly jumped when he heard that, and he climbed towards the red horse regardless of the pain and fatigue on his body.
"What's wrong, General?" The guard soldier looked at Lin Fenghan who was not resting in confusion.
"Hey! I have no strength anymore." Lin Fenghan, who had climbed a few times but failed to climb onto the war horse, sighed with his tall war horse depressed.
"Do you need us to help you?"
"No! I'm walking." Lin Fenghan shook his head gently and walked firmly towards the battlefield.
After the army fought, the green grassland was filled with blood, and the bloody atmosphere was everywhere. Broken swords and spears, discarded helmets and hats, dead bodies and dead horses littered the mountains and plains.
"ah!"
Poof!
Lin Fenghan held the smoking battle flag in one hand and vomited violently as he looked at the blackened dead body. The catapult released a total of more than thirty incendiary bombs in this battle. Each incendiary bomb was added with grease, rags and thatch. It burned before being released. After being released, it flew across a long space and hit the enemy. It was very terrifying. The blow to morale was severe. In this battle, only the ballistae, trebuchets, and catapults killed more than 300 enemies. If the enemy this time were ordinary militia and noble troops, they would have surrendered long ago. Unfortunately, even such an elite Duke's army failed after a series of mistakes. The enemy still resisted tenaciously, and it was a fluke that the Elantra army was able to win.
"Brothers, you have worked hard. You are all warriors. I will give each person who participates in the battle an acre of land until he dies."
Lin Fenghan smiled and greeted the injured soldiers who were cleaning up the battlefield.
"Baron, you are simply too good. You are the best nobleman I have ever seen."
"General, you are the best general I have ever seen." The town guards and temporary militiamen praised Lin Fenghan gratefully.
"Haha, brother, you're welcome. In the future, I plan to collect only 20% of the agricultural tax from the families of all serving soldiers. Can you explain to me what can be grown in one acre of land in our territory? How much food can be grown in a year? "How is the production going?" Lin Fenghan nodded slightly, sat on the grass, pulled a farmer in his thirties beside him, and consulted carefully.
"Baron, my family works as a servant for the mayor. The five members of my family only have five acres of land, and 50% of the food must be turned in. But fortunately, the terrain here is very good. Rice is available three times a year. With fishing, life is not easy. Not poor. The rice yield per mu of land per season is as high as 200 to 300 kilograms, and sometimes it can reach 400 to 500 kilograms after the harvest is done. If wheat is grown in dry land, the wheat yield per mu of land is very low, usually 150 kilograms. It weighs ten to two hundred kilograms, but it tastes strong and tastier than rice. There is another major grain, corn. After thousands of years of cultivation, the yield of corn per acre is as high as more than five hundred kilograms, but this kind of food is Because of the discomfort of having a dry stomach, it can only be used as supplementary food. As for vegetables? Generally, we grow radishes, celery, green vegetables, lettuce Our coastal areas are rich in products, and there is basically no inland land where you can eat three meals a year. The common people who don't have enough to eat are much better off." The farmer laughed and talked about Iraq.?Special crop conditions.
"There are also olive trees. Although the mayor prohibits us farmers from logging them, we still secretly do a few oil refinings. The taste is indeed very good. There are also a large number of trees on the mountains that the mayor prohibits logging, but everyone cooks for life. But we have to secretly cut down treesah!" The young farmer on the side pinched the farmer who was completely talking about his life, and his voice suddenly stopped.
"Haha! You don't have to be so nervous. The trees and olive trees on the mountain are indeed very important and are strategic materials for the territory. But I understand that you mine them for your own livelihood. I will issue a document later to allow farmers from all over Elantra to use appropriate amounts. Mining trees and olives, do you have other difficulties in life or ideals? Maybe I can help you solve these problems." Lin Fenghan smiled gently and looked at the more than ten people around him with great interest. said.
"Baron, you are such a good man." The middle-aged farmer clapped his hands excitedly and extended his thumbs in praise.
"I'm ashamed. In fact, in my eyes, everyone is equal. There is no distinction between high and low in this world. We are all born the same. I have a dream, that is, everyone is equal, everyone has food and clothing, and everyone is equal. Fraternity, everyone is free, everyone is equal, regardless of superiority or inferiority, everyone can be a blacksmith, farmer, soldier, official, everyone can freely change their occupation, I want to let the old people who have lost their children Have something to rely on and survive until the last moment when you are old. I want children to receive the best education for free, everyone can realize their dreams and have true freedom. I want every human being under the sky, every All intelligent races can live truly freely, and everyone will not be restricted by hunger, thirst, cold, heat, or disease"
"Since God has chosen to let me appear in this world, I have to decide to build the world in my heart. The name of this world is - Heaven on Earth." Lin Fenghan looked at more and more people around him who were listening to him attentively. The crowd passionately told the dream that they had hidden in their hearts for a long time and still dared not express even on earth.
"Baron, what you are going to do is too great. This is the world that a saint dreams of!"
"Yes! Once everyone is equal, will there be nobility? Those people who seem to think they are noble in their bones will not let you, Baron, get what you want."
"Baron, you said that each of us would not go hungry every day, that every one of us would have new clothes to wear when our clothes are torn, and that we would be given free medical treatment when we were sick. We simply cannot imagine these things!"
"Is it really possible to feed the elderly and feed and nurture children and orphans? Whenever there is a war or when food is in short supply, many elderly people die of hunger and disease every month. This is just what I heard. There are quite a few of them, and I have seen many of them in the village with my own eyes. Baron, if you can really make all of this disappear, I swear to Poseidon that I will be loyal to you for the rest of my life."
"Me too, Baron, if you really plan to do the career you have in mind, we will definitely support you."
"Yeah, me too!"
¡Row after row, a small group of prisoners including those from Bertand¡¯s army waved and excitedly.
Lin Fenghan looked at the four to five hundred people who had appeared around him unknowingly with excitement, raised his hands and shouted: "A gentleman's words are hard to catch up with. Since I, Yiliuyun*Elantra, dare to say such a thing today, I will definitely do it." Make it happen. Don¡¯t be too quick to doubt, I will let you know my determination today through my policies within three months.¡±
"Baron! Your thoughts are really comparable to those of a saint! But since you have decided to do this, the nobles of this world will give you unprecedented resistance. It is still too late to regret now!" Motel sighed as he looked at the determined man. Lin Fenghan said with relief and worry.
"In order to realize the dream in my heart, as evidenced by heaven, I, Yiliuyun*Elantra, am willing to be the enemy of all evil, and I will never regret it in this life." The breeze blew gently, and Lin Fenghan pointed his finger at the sky and swore solemnly.
Lord Elant¡¯s solemn expression made everyone stop each other, and they were extremely happy and shocked.
