Chapter 246: Joining (Part 2)
Chapter 246 Joining (Part 2)
At noon, the vast crowd and convoy arrived at Romon's territory.
During the march, Fafer and Hevavi made some arrangements, with women and children being protected in the middle, while soldiers and soldiers were at the outermost perimeter and at the head and tail.
When they rushed back to Tetashau territory, someone was patrolling carefully on the wall. Along the distance, someone saw a crowd of darkness coming from afar. Because they couldn't see who was coming, all kinds of weapons were placed on it, and even Nick came to the wall and looked down.
"It's the adult who is back!" When the darkness approaches, the people above will naturally see clearly the person coming.
The suspension bridge was put down and people walked in one after another.
The following is of course arranged.
However, these arrangements still require formal agreements, so when Nick heard the news, he arranged for the leaders to rest in the square first, while the lord and the squire went to the villa to discuss matters without having to eat.
As Sir Demerka got off the carriage, he looked around and looked at the neatly planted fruit trees on both sides of the road. The jazz felt an indescribable feeling.
When he arrived at the Lord's Villa in Romon, Sir Demerka noticed that the surroundings of the Lord's Villa were not a building, but a large area of villas in a scattered manner.
Although these villas are not as good as the lord's villas, they are considered exquisite. For the jazz and squire, these villas are not inferior to home, and I feel a little at the moment.
There was a large lawn in front of the villa. Sir Demerka took the five gentlemen and followed the path to the inside.
The hall on the first floor has been cleaned up.
Shari was directing the servants, waiting for everyone to sit down, and served snacks, fruits and wine.
"My sirs, please rest for a while here, and my lord will come immediately." Sali said, and she saluted a little, and nodded and returned the salute.
This little girl is no longer a maid, and the first-level druid has brought her status and glory.
After a few days of fighting and another night, everyone present was hungry. Baldry and Romon were familiar with each other, so they were not polite. They immediately took a snack and started eating. While drinking, they saw him like this, and the others followed.
After all, they are all squire class and attendant knight class. It doesn’t matter if they are rude, but rather their true nature.
"Everyone, let everyone wait for a long time." Romon changed his clothes and came out. At this moment, everyone stood up to greet him, even including Sir Demerka.
Behind them are the two knights, Fafer and Hevavi.
Behind them are Nick and Old Man Lulun.
Romon, who was originally a otakus and ordinary staff on earth, truly felt the consciousness of the superiors for the first time.
Even at the ceremony of his promotion to the Lord, he never felt this way.
The feeling at that time was joy and excitement, while the feeling now was deep and solemn. The difference between the two was as clear as the newly brewed spirits and the aged wine stored in the cellar.
"Everyone, please sit down, Sir Demerka, gentlemen, the banquet is ready, and we will be held after we have finished discussing it." Romon said with a smile, and sat down at the top for the first time, calm and composed.
And I have already said it very clearly. I hope everyone will be honest and don’t waste time.
People at the same level have a lot of nonsense, but their superiors and subordinates basically don’t know, because their superiors don’t have so much time to accompany you.
"Lord, first of all, I would like to thank you for your support. However, I don't know how long the magic disaster will last. We hope to move to your territory to defend against the magic disaster together." Although I have said it once, on a formal occasion, Sir Demerka has to formally explain the requirements.
In fact, Sir Demerka made a great decision to make this decision. After all, his family has been rooted in this place for hundreds of years, and it was somewhat sad to move to other territories due to the outbreak of the magic disaster.
However, as long as we compare the miserable outcome of those who did not move, thinking of Romon's military strength and its more valued potential, Sir Demerka no longer hesitated.
After all, if you bring people here now, you will lose some population and rights at most. But if you don’t move here, you will lose your life in the next attack.
"Yes, yes, we are willing to move to your territory with Sir Demerka to defend against the devil together," said several gentlemen immediately.
"Sir Demerka, sirs, I naturally welcome you to come, but..." Since the other party said so, Romon would not push people out, but what should be said is still necessary.
After all, such a large population is not a small number, let alone military strength. Unlike the Chinese Empire, under the feudal system, even the lord does not have to fully bear the food and salary, let alone Roman.
Sir Demerka smiled bitterly, and naturally understood Romon's concerns. Seeing Romon's face showing a embarrassed expression, he immediately said, "Lord, I know that the people and us have brought you a great burden. We are willing to do it according to the ancient agreement."
At this moment, Old Man Lulun spoke: "Sir Demerka, you are a real nobleman."
After approving it, I explained to Romon.
It turns out that the migration of territories has long had its roots in the devil's disasters, wars from various countries, and even private fights within the nobles.
Many small nobles in the territory do not have much force to protect themselves, and they will always seek refuge in the strong and move.
Generally speaking, these little nobles would pay a tribute to sign a treaty.
Moreover, most of the population brought by these families will belong to the protectors, except for the families and servants of each family. Of course, if the victory is achieved, the general protectors will issue half of the population to return it.
During the protection period, the protected families still have their own independence. However, during the war, they have the obligation to let the lords of their territory be allowed to be dispatched. Correspondingly, Romon must also bear their salary and supplements.
Of course, the most core issue is the land. The fief ownership of each family cannot be changed. Even if it is lost, it is just that if the little nobles do not have the strength to recover and ask the protector to help conquer, they will usually cede a quarter of the land and sign a formal subordinate relationship.
These terms are very complicated. Romon is glad that he has Old Man Lulun, otherwise he will suffer a loss. After hearing this, he expressed his feelings: "Sir, please rest assured, you come to my territory. As lords, I welcome everything, everything will be implemented according to the ancient agreement!"
Romon has been around for a long time now and knows that fiefs are the foundation of this world. These families can give up everything but will not give up this. Of course, he has no objection to this.
The devil disaster has destroyed many families. The fiefs are actually no problem in the future. What is most lacking now is population.
Since these gentlemen's families were going to take refuge in their territory with a large population, he naturally had nothing to refuse and immediately agreed happily.
Seeing Romon's agreement, Sir Demerka cheered up and said, "Since that's the case, we can sign the terms and divide the people, and then send the agreement to the Temple of Order in the city."
Romon nodded and said with a smile: "This is very good. Also, in order to deal with the magic disaster, I am going to form two more squadrons, Sir Demerka, I hope you can form the fifth squadron, dear sirs, I hope you can form the sixth squadron, and the squadron leader will be elected by you."
"What about the salary and weapons?"
"Assing orders and treating everyone equally." Romon smiled slightly, and sniffing Nick's eyes and said this. Although he knew that he could still bargain, he did not take this benefit to heart during this period.
Frequent wars, life and death, are the time when heroes are scattered. Even if they come to this world, Romon is still a person influenced by the Chinese military commander, and he has his own approach and opinions on this.
"Lord, you are so generous. My family is willing to donate ten war horses to you." Baudrill said, losing his territory, he could not afford to raise such many horses, and now there is no way.
"My family is willing to donate seven horses, too." Then, several gentlemen said.
"Okay, gentlemen, Mr. Lu Lun, since the outline has been determined, you are good at discussing specific terms. I want to organize the people and distribute food and work. The faster these should be, the better. There are many demonic armies in nearby territories. I am worried that after a long time, the demons in other territories will also come here. We must defend in advance." Romon reminded.
"Don't worry, I will command the servants to pass on the news of the division of the people." Sir Demerka thought of this possibility, and after he talked to Romon, he ordered people to convey the news to the outside.
As a result, the lunch banquet ended quickly, and Old Man Lulun discussed the terms with these people in detail, while outside, Romon had already begun to count and distribute the conquerors.
"Romon, there are more than 600 people and 180 households in total. The small mine village can accommodate up to 100 households, and there are still 80 households to be moved to the Forest House." Nick said as he counted.
In this way, the number of households in the small mine village is as high as 350, and the forest home also has 230 households.
It can be said that the army is strong and the horse is strong.
That night, Romon personally led his troops to patrol, divided into two groups, and took turns to rest and on duty.
It was easy for several gentlemen to make arrangements. After confirming the agreement, they moved into various small villas, and they were still satisfied with this.
The leaders arranged for the empty wooden houses one by one. There were so many wooden houses at once. It was not enough. However, such simple wooden houses would not be a problem. If they were built together, they could be completed in one week.
However, when these leaders left the master's house, of course, people were panicked. The sounds of adults, the cry of children, and the neighing of horses were simply in chaos.
