    Chapter 27 Fighting for Protection

    "hurry up!"

    "Hurry up!"

    "Speed ??up!"

    ¡­¡­

    Elantra's vanguard reconnaissance cavalry rushed forward quickly. The 3,600-strong army stretched 3 kilometers from front to back. The very scattered Elantra army moved towards Waterdeep City at the fastest speed.

    It was around twelve o'clock at noon, at the west gate tower of Waterdeep City. While eating, Senior General Platt could not take his eyes off the battlefield, checking the surrounding armaments.

    Vera came panting from downstairs wearing armor and said with a frown: "General, we only have more than 1,200 Elantian soldiers here. In the battle just now, we have more than 100 people injured. Although five ladders were knocked over,  We repelled the enemy's attack for nearly an hour, but our arrow reserves are now running low, with only more than 20,000 arrows left."

    "Why don't we call in the Waterdeep City security team who have already surrendered? There are more than 200 of them."

    "There are also some young guys with good physical fitness who have never joined the army. You can recruit a lot of them as long as you spend a little money."

    Vera suddenly patted his head, narrowed his eyes and said: "We can also send out donations to the slaves, serfs, and servants who escaped from the nobles and were released as free people. They will come to help us. On the street just now, I  The free people who saw so many wanted to help us resist the coalition of nobles."

    "Um!"

    "You can recruit those who have obtained the status of free people from slaves to help us on the front line. You can also use money to recruit some of the young people from Waterdeep City where they live, but you must remember that you must not recruit those who were once in Bra  The soldiers who hang around the Baron and the nobles are very unstable factors. We must be on guard against them and try our best not to reuse them if we can."

    Platt looked at Vera seriously, frowned and said: "As for some city defense soldiers and security soldiers from the aboriginal people of Waterdeep City, I will go see their leaders now."

    In a teahouse at the west gate of Waterdeep City, Platt looked cautiously at Centurion Davout, the former Waterdeep City garrison, and Lu Menton, the newly promoted captain of the Security Brigade of Waterdeep City.

    Platt watched the two people who entered the teahouse standing opposite the table. After a moment of silence, Platt said in a deep voice: "The Baron treats you two well. Are you still satisfied with your current position?"

    A glimmer of light flashed through Dawu's eyes, and he stood still.

    Lu Mengton hesitated for a moment, and under the pressure of Pulet's calm and majestic eyes, he said nervously: "To be fair, Baron Yiliuyun is really good to me. I was just a captain of the lighthouse defender a few days ago.  And now a few days later I am indeed a security brigade captain in charge of more than 100 people, and I am very satisfied."

    Platt glanced at the two people, stood up slowly, looked at the tense and lively crowds of angry people outside the teahouse, and said lightly: "Since Baron Yiliuyun came to Waterdeep City, he has unconditionally ordered all the nobles, businessmen, and citizens to  , freeing slaves and slaves. Many people with potential fugitive status are legally protected here, and they can tell their identities openly."

    "In Waterdeep City, Baron Yiliuyun opened relief canteens, Jimin canteens, and simple free clinic tents just like he did in the Elante Islands. Many poor civilians have been helped."

    "His wish is to make this world full of fairness, justice, righteousness, peace, kindness, and happiness. Before, I just protected him, helped him, and fought for him for my mission. Later, I was also attracted by his  Moved by dreams, I, a child of a poor farmer, eagerly want to see such a world appear in the human world."

    ¡°I want to see that everyone is not poor and has food, clothes, and a house.¡±

    ¡°I want to see that everyone is not ignorant and can go to school, learn knowledge, explore literature, create poetry, and dance music.¡±

    "I want to see a world full of fairness. Every human being is the same and will not be subject to different laws because of their different status. Everyone must be under the rule of sacred law. Before the law, everyone  equality."

    ¡°I want to see a world full of peace, and there will be no wars, whether they are wars between lords and lords, wars between nations, wars between countries, wars between countries, or wars between people of different skin colors.¡±

    ¡°I want to see a perfect, harmonious, and happy world.¡±

    "And today, I still want to see"

    A smile appeared on Pulet's serious face. He waved to welcome him and looked at those who wanted to join the battle. He said slowly: "In front of Yi Liuyun, I see hope."

    ¡°??I looked at his true and sincere face, when I heard him categorically stating his laws and oaths, and when I heard him passionately speaking to the people, I discovered what was hidden deep in my heart.  I was impressed by him.  "

    "When he led the army to intercept the Second Western Army, I stayed without hesitation. Before leaving, I told him that I would persist until he came back."

    Platt suddenly turned around, looked at the two of them seriously, and said loudly: "Now, there are six to seven thousand people outside the west gate of Waterdeep City, and my Elantra Marine Corps only has more than 1,200 people guarding this city.  Protect the people here, protect those poor people who are weak but still strong and tenacious and have gained freedom."

    "And you are natives of Waterdeep City. Once the coalition of nobles breaks this city, they will plunder everything here. The wealth of your compatriots will be taken away, and your women will be raped. You  Children will cry, and you will watch helplessly and do nothing."

    Platt spoke quickly, describing everything terrifying in a cold voice, and shouted at the two of them feverishly: "And now, I hope you will give you a chance."

    "Give you a chance to protect the people of Waterdeep City."

    "Give you a chance to avoid tragedy."

    "Give you an opportunity to realize your own value."

    "Give you a chance to fight for your great dream!"

    The passionate words echoed in the teahouse. Young Lu Mengton took an excited step and shouted: "Your Excellency, I am willing to fight to protect my compatriots in Waterdeep City."

    Pulet nodded with satisfaction and looked towards Davout.

    Davout solemnly pulled out the long arrow, raised it heavily to the top of his head, and swore loudly: "I, Davout, swear here today that I will fight to protect justice, I will fight to protect the people, and I will protect  Fight in peace, I will follow the great dream and fight for the dream."

    Everyone straightened their bodies solemnly and nodded appreciatively.
