According to the lord's intention, he wanted to show off and suppress the hall. After all, the hall only had four hundred cavalry, and the lord had six hundred cavalry.

But the lord did not expect that these six hundred cavalry would arouse the jealousy of other city lords in the same camp.

As a result, with the support of these city lords, the hall directly asked the lord for two hundred cavalry, which made the lord agree or refuse.

Although the city lords do their own things, they are still under the same banner and the same lord. The blatant disobeying orders may lead to the attack of all the city lords of the same power.

Finally, the news of the young master's death came, and the lord rushed back with this reason.

But the matter was not over yet. As the hall sent an envoy to pay tribute, there was also an order to pursue two hundred war horses.

The Southeast Peninsula is short of horses, and the two nearby countries are even short of horses.

The powerful attack power of the cavalry has made war horses an important military equipment, and they can’t even buy money on the Southeast Peninsula. It is conceivable how important two hundred war horses are to a force, and it also understands how difficult it is to make the choice of these two hundred war horses.

"Oh, it seems that we can only hand over the war horses." The Lord of Mingyue City sighed.

The arm could not twist the thigh, and Fair knew that the lord's decision was right.

However, when he thought that he had picked up a boatman for a war horse, and with this merit, he received a reward of two thousand stones of land, his heart couldn't help but tremble and said, "Lord, Zhao Hu still has thousands of war horses, we may be able to buy two hundred more war horses from him."

When the Lord of Mingyue City heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Didn't he say he could only take out two hundred war horses? Now he is asking him for it, and he is willing to give it out?"

"He has so many war horses, and it should be nothing to give two hundred more. Don't he need a boat craftsman? We will come up with a group of excellent boat craftsmen, and he will definitely not refuse. As long as the price is in place, it will be fine to ask him to treason." Fair said.

When the Lord of Mingyue heard this, he frowned: "Excellent ship craftsman? This is an important foundation for ensuring our interests. And I heard that he is preparing to build a shipyard, so it may be inappropriate to give him these excellent ship craftsmen."

"Lord, we can raise the price. If an excellent ship craftsman exchanges for a war horse, a mere 200 ship craftsman cannot pose a threat to us. Moreover, he is just a major lord and will leave the territory after a while. His territory is at most to earn some money for him, and there is no need to worry that he will build warships." Fehr said.

The Lord of Mingyue City nodded and said, "Well, then okay, when he comes, you go and find out about the whistleblower. If you don't want a boatman, then it's OK to change it to gold coins. You can tell him that two thousand gold coins are a war horse."

Fair immediately took the order. Neither of them thought that Zhao Hu would threaten him. It was amazing that he just earned a little gold coins from him.

Because they all knew that the Imperial Army did not order to go to war to the outside world without authorization, which was a death sentence.

Just as the Lord of Mingyue City asked how the reception banquet was prepared, a servant rushed in rudely and shouted: "Lord, please report it urgently! The bandits living in the dock took advantage of the situation to rob the dock, not only looting the dock, but also starting an organized attack on our army, and urgently needed reinforcements!"

When the Lord of Mingyue City heard this, he immediately jumped up and shouted: "This group of damn untouchables! He actually rebels at this time! Want to make me look unfair? Come on! Transfer five thousand soldiers and horses to kill the untouchables on the dock!"

Fair hurriedly dissuaded: "Lord, plus the two thousand troops who went to put out the fire, so there will be only more than three thousand troops left in our city. The defense in the city will immediately weaken most of it. Why would you hire mercenaries to mobilize?"

The Lord of Mingyue stared at Fer coldly and said, "Please hire mercenaries? If you want to send out these trivial matters such as destroying these untouchables who took advantage of the situation, you actually want to send out mercenaries?

"If I do this, what will Major Zhao Hu think of me when he sees me? What will other city lords discuss me when he sees me? They will definitely feel that my direct troops are so weak that they can't even solve the problem of bandits! If they have such a misunderstanding, what do you think will be next?" After speaking, the city lord's tone was so cold that it was freezing.

Fer is sweating profusely. What will happen if a force's direct troops are weak? The same force will divide you immediately, while the external forces will invade you immediately.

You cannot show weakness on the Southeast Peninsula.

There was a stupid boy who didn't know who followed the opinions of someone and wanted the surrounding enemies to fight each other, but he hid in the dark to take the opportunity to develop, so he instructed the direct army to deliberately show weakness. However, when he showed weakness, enemies from all directions immediately put their targets on him and all swarmed over, even the bandits and retainers in the territory often rebelled.

Although everyone found that the intelligence was not in line with the war with that stupid army, the territorial system of the Southeast Peninsula decided that once a war started, the truce would not be decided by the monarch, so everyone was fighting to the death.

In this way, although the direct troops of the foolish ranch were actually very strong, no matter how powerful the army was, it could not afford such repeated attacks. So it goes without saying that the fool ranch died and his territory was annexed.

Therefore, on the Southeast Peninsula, you can show off your power and be arrogant, but you can't show your weakness, because everyone is a person who bullies the weak and is afraid of the strong. Once you are misunderstood as a soft persimmon, it will be troublesome. You must know that it is a hard persimmon. If you are pinched too much, it will turn into a soft persimmon and rotten persimmon after being pinched for a long time.

Thinking of this, Feer immediately knelt down and kowtowed in panic: "Lord, I was nervous about the safety of the city for a while and did not notice this. I was guilty of death. I am willing to atone for my merits and lead the army to destroy the untouchables for my lord!"

Fair was cursing at himself in his heart: "Damn it, why are you so stupid? You only think about the safety of the city and don't want the regular army to be dispatched, but you didn't expect this to give people a feeling of weakness! It's miserable now. The impression I finally established before was greatly reduced, and I'm afraid there is no chance for the soldiers to atone for their sins."

Sure enough, the Lord of Mingyue refused: "No need, you have to be responsible for the banquet. Others will be responsible for the matter of destroying those untouchables."

Hearing the cold tone of the Lord of Mingyue City, Fer could only sigh and obey. Alas, it seemed that it would take a long time for him to recover his impression in the lord's heart.

The other retainers present were gloating. Although they did not dare to take advantage of the situation, it was also pleasing to see the decline of the first retainer's status.

After receiving the order, the five thousand regular troops in Mingyue City immediately rushed to the dock with full force. The defense of the city gate became much tighter, which made Mode, who was lurking near the city gate, very anxious. While worried that he would not be able to complete the task, he sent people to quickly send the enemy's troops back.

In the chaotic dock, Mode was leading a group of subordinates to command the bandits and excitedly killed the regular army with two thousand people.

The regular army was in trouble. The ones who received the order to put out the fire did not carry spears or bows except for the sword. When they were about to put out the fire, dense bandits suddenly emerged from left and right and behind with bamboo guns rushed over.

Mingyue soldier, who belonged to the defender, was stabbed through the bamboo gun before he could react.

The bandits who killed the Mingyue soldiers were too lazy to care about the others. They immediately threw down their bamboo guns, snatched the soldiers' swords, and shouted: "I have a gold coin!" while raising their swords to rush towards the other Mingyue soldiers.

These bandits' actions made the bandits behind them excitedly, and they all shouted: "Gold coins! Gold coins!" to launch a desperate attack.

Although the Mingyue Soldier was well-trained, he was ambushed without any preparation. He was also a bandit with fire and dense tides on three sides. His time and place were not on his side, and his morale was extremely low.

Although there are great differences in physique and weapons between the bandits and the Mingyue Soldiers, when it comes to fierceness, the bandits who can fight for nothing except life are still powerful.

Moreover, because of the absolute number of bandits, and under the stimulation of money and status, their morale was boiling.

The result of the battle is self-evident, it is just a matter of time.

Seeing the bandits so excited, Mo De, who was hiding behind, said proudly to his subordinates: "How is it? I'm still smart, right?

"One gold coin exchanges for a weapon of the soldiers of Mingyue City, the officers doubled. Without any trouble, these guys all launched an attack with all their might. The soldiers used gold coins to buy them, and the leader used their position as retainers. I am really wise."

"The boss is indeed wise. I never thought that the boss could come up with this way to increase morale. It was so amazing." Mo De's subordinate immediately flattered.

While enjoying the flattery, Mode secretly laughed at himself: "What a wise man? Isn't it that the reason why the city offered rewards to buy imperial weapons when he attacked the lord.

"But Mingyue City is too stingy. Each imperial weapon is only one silver coin, and now I only have one gold coin! I am so generous, only I am suitable to be the new city lord here!" Thinking of the back, Mo De became proud again.

At any time, there are situations that are terrifying. A subordinate suddenly asked, "Boss, there are thousands of people here, only thousands of weapons. Boss, do you have so many gold coins?"

The sound of flattery disappeared immediately, and Mod stared at the subordinate and shouted: "Idiot! I am working for the lord, of course the lord gave this money!"

The subordinate continued to ask without a trace of his eyes: "Uh, what if the lord doesn't agree?"

"There are only a few thousand gold coins. The lord is so rich and generous, how could he not agree?"

Mode didn't think about this at all and easily answered his questions.

In fact, it is true that as long as you take out a few thousand gold coins, you can solve thousands of enemy troops. Everyone will agree to such a good thing.
