Chapter 166 Takeover

Leader Amy walked in the team. He was the commander of the team. According to the instructions of the great True Dragon, he was the consul of the destination Maneyuan. This change once made him sigh.

When he came to this city dominated by the dragon, he was just a serf of a viscount in the Dark Iron Grand Duchy. He had a humble identity because Black Iron failed in the war with the Dark Iron Grand Duchy in the past few years and lost a lot of land. He also changed from a serf without human rights to a refugee who was hungry all day long.

I thought I would starve to death, but I didn't expect that after wandering into this city dominated by the dragon, I would be accepted directly, and I would also give them food every day, and I would only allocate their farm tools.

Amy is very grateful to the owner of the Dragon King City, the great True Dragon Majesty. He likes his current life very much. Now he has many friends from other races. He also went to the Lord's Mansion for education last month. At that time, he saw many people going there. He thought this was some important message issued by the Lord's Mansion.

However, when he heard the knowledge taught to them by the adults of the Lord's Mansion, he was stunned. Because he was not talking about a notice, but teaching them about knowledge, something he had never heard of before.

This made Amy, who was originally not well educated, feel dizzy after listening for a while, but he is a very hardworking person. No matter what he does, he is harder than many people. At that time, many people who studied together and many people were sleeping soundly. He stood out from a few people and was valued by Lord William.

Now Amy feels it is not true. Although there is no example of a lord in the Dragon King City, the only lord is the great True Dragon Majesty. However, Amy knows that the position of the consul of the Mane Original Consul is not a lord, but he also has the power of some lords, so it is better to take charge of this power comparable to the Viscount's territory!

This made Amy even more grateful to Lord William and the great True Dragon!

It took nearly two days to Amy, with a group of managers who assisted him and the Dragon Claw Warriors who were in charge of guarding them, finally arrived at the destination, ‘Maneland Leader!’

At this moment, Amy looked at the territories everywhere in front of her, and after being silent for a few seconds, she finally couldn't help but sigh.

All the buildings in sight showed signs of having been looted. The warehouses in the castle of this territory that store grain were looted and set fire to the fire. The wells were also buried. The cattle, sheep and livestock were slaughtered and filled with hunger soldiers who fled through the territory. Those who had no time to take them away were burned like granaries and houses. In some places, Amy could see some unpleasant dark red blood stains.

Some not very strong farmhouses were even destroyed and destroyed by war, but what destroyed them was not the warriors of the Dragon King as "enemy", but the nominal shelter of this territory, the nominal shelter of this principality, and the defeated soldiers of the Thorn Kingdom of the nominal sect.

The straits fled from the front line of the Gravel Ridge destroyed the place—just like other places they had destroyed on the battlefield in the past.

War is synonymous with plunder, especially for hungry defeated troops. Amy, who had experienced the Dark Iron Principal, was still shocked by what he saw and heard. He did not expect that the plunder and destruction carried out by the defeated troops would be more shocking than the damage caused by the victors. He was even shocking so much that he couldn't help but wonder whether the fleeing defeated troops were humans or a group of termites that had peeled off their skin and bones.

Standing next to Amy was a werewolf warrior who had participated in many wars, and was also the captain of this guard. This veteran of the Dragon King City was used to the battlefield and learned about the arrangement of these human noble troops over time. He shook his head and explained to Amy: "When they marched, they would still be orderly - at least at that time, they were still regarded as protectors of land and hiding people. When they passed through villages and towns, they would collect a lot of food and property, but at least they would not destroy it. However, once they fled, they would become locusts...

They are different from our army. Those noble soldiers do not regard 'plunder' as any crime at all, nor will they be hung up and beaten just because they take a few bread from ordinary people. They dare to do anything to fill their stomachs, and even to prevent food and houses from falling into the hands of pursuers. They will burn a place when they go..."

"Don't they even let their own land go?" Amy, a human, couldn't help but interrupt the gnoll captain, "Those fleeing nobles...will they really order the villages on their territory?"

"Why not?" the old werewolves sighed. "Anyway, they were defeated. According to the rules of the human aristocratic war, the winners always plundered them-they felt that even if they did not take away all the food in the village and burned the houses, the pursuers would do this. Instead of letting the enemy succeed, they would do it themselves, and in this way they could still grab some of the food... they did not feel that they would lose money."

“…”

Amy was silent. The war between the nobles, the darkness and the sin made him not know what to say - he was just a humble serf, and his understanding of the nobles would always be what the nobles wanted to let them know.

Even though he had witnessed the despicable behavior of some barbarian nobles in his service, what aristocrats like this did during the defeat and escape were far beyond his expectations.

But Amy was not a naive person. On the contrary, he was shocked by the cruel darkness in the war, but he naively believed that this war should not be there. He agreed with the decision of the great True Dragon, because in the territory under the True Dragon, almost everyone was smiling, and he liked it very much.

He knew the greed of human beings and the greed of nobles. However, after knowing the disgust of these nobles, he felt that this war was inevitable. No matter what the outcome of the war, those greedy and cruel nobles would do similar things with their army - plunder and destruction would always happen, the only difference is where it would happen.

And he also knew that His Majesty the True Dragon's army was already avoiding the spread of these destructions as much as possible.

But no matter how hard you try, the battlefield is always full of variables and uncontrollable.

So Amy could only watch in silence, then lowered her head and silently prayed for those who suffered disasters.

The captain of the old zombie guard looked at the sentimental consul. Instead of disturbing the latter's prayer, he began to assign tasks to the warriors under his command: "You two, go to the nearby area to find out if there are any other people, find out if there are any survivors who have escaped, and find out how to find out. You, and you three, find out if there are any places nearby where the bodies are discarded, and gather them to burn them. Others come with me to find out what else is available."

It is obvious that the captain of the gnoll is strictly following the instructions told by the lord's mansion to them.

Amy slowly walked among the collapsed and destroyed ruins. The wind from the south blew across the fields, trampled and destroyed wheat fields, and into this devastated place. There was no smell of blood and burning in the wind, but a kind of moistness and sweetness - which indicates that a summer rain might come soon.
