    Chapter 25: The Wounded Centurion of the Lance Militia

    "Lord Baron, this is the boy."

    When Lin Fenghan had just reached the eastern city gate, Rafa led a group of people to escort a chubby Waterdeep soldier holding his belly in front of Lin Fenghan.

    ¡°Didn¡¯t I say that we should treat prisoners kindly?¡±

    "We will be stationed here for a long time in the future, and we can no longer arouse the hatred of the people of Waterdeep City." Lin Fenghan asked with a strange wave of his hand.

    Rafa lowered his head in depression and said unjustly: "Baron, it's not too late to see who is saying this! What's more, in the face of your order, we did not rob the wealth of all the soldiers who surrendered to us!  "

    "who is he?"

    Lin Fenghan looked at the big fat man in confusion, pointed his head and tried hard to think for a long time, but he couldn't figure out who he was.

    "He is the soldier who stood on the city wall and released water on us. When the brothers were searching the room, they caught him hiding in the corner."

    Rafa said angrily: "We all rushed up and beat the fat man hard. Now it's up to you to decide how to punish him."

    Looking at Fatty, Ke Langde, Ma Youdun and Rafa were discussing loudly.

    "This guy is really bad."

    "It's absolutely terrible."

    "Send him to the gallows."

    "Hang him to the city wall."

    ¡­¡­

    "My Lord Baron, please spare my life!"

    "I don't want to do this either. It was Baron Brat who forced me to do this." The fat man cried out in fear after hearing such a miserable punishment, and knelt down desperately to beg for mercy.

    Lin Fenghan's expression condensed, and he looked at the fat man coldly and said: "You are dressed very well. Tell me your position in Waterdeep City and give me a suitable reason, otherwise I will hang you according to what they said."  On the wall.¡±

    "My Lord Baron, spare your life! I am the centurion of the spear militia of Waterdeep City. Because I accepted a small donation from my subordinates according to military customs, this bastard Bulat found out and scolded me for a while. I was so unjust. You must know that he learned from us.  The money I took from me was much more than the money I took from my subordinates.¡±

    "In order to suppress the morale of the Elante army, under the instruction of Baron Bratt, I did something so unworthy of the Elante army. Please forgive me! I will never do this again." Spear Militia  The centurion cried regretfully.

    "I'm afraid these are some lies! I feel that you have definitely taken the initiative in this matter." Lin Fenghan looked at the centurion of the spear militia coldly, and said lightly: "What kind of punishment do you want? Or maybe you can make up for it by saying something  Wrong measures, and I allow everyone who knows their mistakes to repent of their mistakes.¡±

    "Ah!" The centurion of the spear militia felt cold all over, raised his round head in surprise, and felt that his lower abdomen did not seem to hurt too much, and said loudly: "I am willing to contribute 1,000 silver coins to the baron to forgive my mistake.  "

    "Um?"

    Vera, Kelande, Ma Youden and others stared at the fat centurion without blinking.

    "I am willing to contribute 5,000 silver coins to offset my fault."

    Lin Fenghan lowered his head and said nothing.

    The fat man gritted his teeth and said firmly: "Lord Baron, I am willing to sell my house in Waterdeep City and contribute 10,000 silver coins to offset my fault."

    "This is the property I acquired over many years. I really can't do much more. If I go home any longer, I will starve to death." The fat man begged miserably.

    Lin Fenghan shook his head gently and said: "I didn't ask you to use coins to atone for your sins, but since you are willing to contribute 10,000 silver coins to make up for the mental loss of the Elante army, I still want to encourage you."

    "Actually, I just want you to publicly apologize to everyone and admit your guilt, but your generosity and generosity still shocked me."

    "ah!"

    After hearing this, the fat man¡¯s eyes froze, and he fell to the ground with a thud, unable to get up again.

    ¡­¡­

    "Ha ha ha ha!"

    "You looked at that fat man's desperate expression just now, as if his parents were dead. I just laughed to death."

    "That fat guy, I feel like he has a mental breakdown now!"

    "yes!"

    "Damn fat man!"

    "No! I should say cute fat guy."

    ¡­¡­

    Ma Youden, Rafa, Vera and others walked towards the port warehouse with Lin Fenghan holding their sleeves and laughing.

    Ke Langde ran up to Lin Fenghan with a sly look and said: "Baron, didn't you say that the 10,000 silver coins were to make up for the mental loss of the army? I haveOne portion?  "

    "Well!" Lin Fenghan paused for a moment and said seriously: "When wages are paid in the middle of this month, everyone will be rewarded with an extra silver coin, and the remaining several thousand silver coins will be handed over to the logistics department to improve everyone's food!  "

    "Ha ha!"

    ¡°It¡¯s really great.¡±

    ¡­¡­

    Ke Langde, Ma Youdun, and Vera said with a cheerful smile.  One gold coin can be exchanged for 10 to 12 or more silver coins, one silver coin is worth more than 100 copper coins, and one small copper coin can buy a piece of bread.  One copper coin is about the same value as one RMB, one silver coin is equal to more than 100 RMB, and one gold coin is equal to 1,000 RMB.  An average person's daily food consumption ranges from 3 to 10 copper coins.  Currency is very valuable in Dambreth, which is rich in resources and prosperous.

    After three hours of non-stop handling and transportation.  With the cooperation of army soldiers, navy soldiers, dock workers, and vendors in Waterdeep City, 60 of the more than 100 warehouses on the docks outside Waterdeep City have been evacuated. On the wide port road, there are still soldiers and workers pouring in to the warships in a steady stream.  and merchant ships transporting food and clothing.

    Lin Fenghan watched one ship after another slowly set sail and left. He nodded with satisfaction and said: "After plundering Waterdeep City once, our huge army can be maintained for at least half a year, or we can recruit three to four thousand people."  army."

    As if something suddenly occurred to him, Lin Fenghan quickly turned to Noni and said, "Noni, order our intelligence officers around us to send one piece of intelligence a day, at the same time."

    "Vera, immediately notify the light cavalry personnel and reconnaissance light infantry to station themselves at road intersections and mountain roads more than ten kilometers away from Waterdeep City. Pay attention to the situation at all times and do not be complacent."

    "At the same time, we must not let the Waterdeep soldiers who surrendered and laid down their weapons leave. On behalf of the Elante government, I will make good use of them. Each of them will give them three silver coins in the past few days and ask them to help me build the city wall and transport food and grass. Among them.  Local soldiers in Waterdeep City will be released additionally. If they are willing to join the Elantian army, they must be welcomed and dispersed to various centurions."

    "Well! That's all for now, let's find some people to pass on my orders!" Lin Fenghan waved his hand and said.

    "yes!"

    Vera nodded, ordered a few Guards Cavalry and walked towards various places.

    "Hey! Isn't that Ali?"

    Lin Fenghan looked at the ship, and suddenly saw Ali leaving the Hailan, and immediately ran over.

    "Uncle, that shot this morning was really amazing!"

    "Yes! The Hailan's hull was pushed back nearly ten meters by the power of the cannon. The bronze cannon was so hot that it took more than ten minutes to cool down."

    Ali warned seriously: "Unless necessary in the future, you can't fire like this anymore. It will hurt the barrel too much."

    "Yeah!" Lin Fenghan nodded seriously.

    "I heard that you will dispatch the navy to attack Cape Watch tomorrow, so I went to each ship to check the status of each bronze cannon and the mixed gunpowder."

    "My dear nephew, after this actual battle, I have obtained some data on the design and launch of the giant cannon, and I will try to make a better cannon."

    Lin Fenghan nodded movedly and said: "Uncle Ali, I'm sorry for your trouble. In fact, I am very satisfied with the cannon. After all, mixed gunpowder is no longer a violent substance under the laws of physics. The weight of the cannon itself is not only used in defense and naval battles, but also in defense and naval battles."  It was effective when besieging a city, but now it has no value at all in other aspects.¡±

    ¡°I am now very concerned about the research on steam engines. In the near future I will conquer a large territory. The railway that can connect various territories together is what I am really concerned about.¡±

    "Railway? Steam engine, I will study it carefully. I am exhausted after a long day of work. It's time to rest."

    "Yeah! I'll treat you to dinner tonight." Lin Fenghan smiled and patted Ali on the shoulder.

    November 4, 2012 16:43:44 It¡¯s snowing in Beijing. It¡¯s so cold!
