Seeing Leanning standing in heavy armor like a humanoid tank, Aslan smiled and asked someone to send over a two-meter-long two-handed sword.
After waving the two-handed sword a few times, Leanning laughed excitedly.
"Haha, Lord Lord, this sword is pretty good."
Aslan rolled his eyes after hearing this. This was a high-end weapon, and it was engraved with sharp runes by Aslan. Ordinary weapons could not withstand the attack of a big sword.
"The battle in the next few days may be very difficult. I will trouble you then, for the sake of Mero's future." Aslan said seriously.
Leanning also nodded firmly. After moving into the town of Merlo, he really fell in love with this town. Although there was some distance between him and ordinary people at the beginning, and he had many conflicts, Aslan gave him all the answers.
solved.
Nowadays, they are slowly living with ordinary people. As Aslan said, in fact, they are just a little stronger and bigger than ordinary people, but they are still human beings and they also need to eat, drink and relieve themselves.
"Lord, please rest assured, my subordinates will definitely use the sword in their hands to teach them how to behave." Laian Ning said with confidence.
"It's just that the boys still don't know who the enemy is? They feel a little uneasy."
Aslan couldn't help but laugh. This Leanning was indeed a man of fine qualities, both rough and fine.
"The Armored Bandit Group."
When he heard about the Kaimen Bandit Group, Le Anning's eyes suddenly lit up. He had long wanted to meet them.
There are two evils in the Mero area, namely the barbarian tribe and the Kaimen Bandit Group. Now that the barbarian tribe has surrendered to Mero Town, only the Kaimen Bandit Group is the last remaining evil.
"Please rest assured, Lord, my subordinates will live up to everyone's expectations."
Aslan waved his hand indifferently. In this battle, he calculated mentally or not, and was absolutely sure to take down the Armored Bandit Group.
"I am fully confident that I will annihilate the Armored Bandit Group in this battle. What I care about now is how much you have convinced the other barbarian groups living in the Mero area. If you want to truly develop the Mero area, you barbarians must
Strength is essential.”
After thinking for a moment, LeAnning scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, with a hint of self-deprecation in his tone.
"Lord, let me tell you the truth! The tribe I led was driven out, so it settled so close to ordinary people."
"Kicked out?" Aslan was surprised.
"This is normal. In the mountains, food and animals are limited, and it is impossible to support such a large population. The old, weak, sick and disabled will be driven out every once in a while. Because I was not convinced, I took more than a dozen brothers from the clan to destroy the family.
Take away all the old, weak, women and children." When Le Anning talked about this matter, his tone was a little unkind.
Aslan didn't know about this in his previous life. In his previous life, Le Anning gathered many barbarians who were driven out from the mountains. Although most of them were old, weak, women and children, they were still much stronger than ordinary people. In Kaimen
After the bandits were destroyed, they were Aslan's biggest worry for a long time.
It wasn't until Aslan carried out a fortification and clearing strategy against the village of Leanning, blocking their food sources, that he finally forced them to surrender.
Aslan remembered that the population of Leanning Village at that time had exceeded a thousand.
"It doesn't matter. As long as you sincerely join Merlo Town, I won't mind." Aslan said without thinking.
There is one old person in the family.
Although these old barbarians may have lost their fighting ability, the fact that they can live to old age is enough to prove that they were strong warriors when they were young.
Among the barbarians, only the strong warriors can survive to the end.
Moreover, having these old people at home can make the barbarians outside have a greater sense of belonging, and the fetters of family will make them more loyal.
After hearing Aslan's words, Leanning knelt down on one knee and put his right fist on his chest, which was a common gesture of loyalty in mainland China.
"When the war is over, go pick them up and bring them back!" Aslan patted Le Anning on the shoulder and turned to leave.
Ryan Anning was excited and ashamed.
During this period of time, he took in many old, young, women and children who were kicked out in the original Laianning Village, and consumed a lot of food every day. It turned out that the lord had known about it for a long time, but he just didn't care about it.
Lai Anning was also worried that they were young, old, women and children, and would be disliked if they couldn't work or fight.
He immediately asked his men to go to Laianning Village to bring the people over, and then turned to the magistrate of Essien to request that their family be allocated some land for farming.
Although they are not as good as ordinary people in cultivating the land, it does not mean that they cannot do it. During this period, he has been to Laianning Village several times and saw that the elderly in the village are also learning to cultivate.
At that time, his teacher, Teyes, the great swordsman who was once a famous barbarian warrior, said something to him.
"He can no longer fight, but there is still no problem in farming. It's just that there is too little land suitable for farming in the mountains."
After Aslan learned about this, he didn't pay much attention to it and asked Essien to agree. When he conquered Laianning in his previous life, his Laianning village planted a large area of land and grain. Because he had not studied systematically, the output was compared to
Ordinary people have lower incomes, but they can barely support them.
The most important thing is that Aslan remembered that among those old guys, there were several old guys at the level of great swordsmen.
Although he is old and lacks vitality and blood, and cannot exert his full strength, there is no problem in bursting out as a swordsman in a short period of time.
Especially during a big crisis in his previous life, Aslan almost died, but he was saved by these old guys. One of them actually broke through to the realm of swordsman instructor at a critical moment, and his energy and blood surged, and he recovered more than half of his body. For a long time, he was
Guardian of the territory.
This is also the reason why Aslan has always been so generous to the barbarians.
The barbarians helped Aslan too much in his previous life.
In three days, Aslan's Knight Guards and the Merlot Army all changed their outfits. The Knight Guards still wore the Kyoto standard knight armor suit, but these armors were blessed with strong runes, and their defense power was more than doubled.
The armor of the Merlot Army is mainly plate armor. Although it does not look as gorgeous as the knight's armor, its defensive power cannot be underestimated.
It's a pity that steel ingots have not appeared in this world, otherwise weapons and armor forged from steel would be better.
Unfortunately, the current blacksmith shop in Merlo Town is too small to meet the needs of the army. Many blacksmiths have to work overtime to complete it.
As for studying the steel forging method, Aslan has not considered it yet.
It wasn't until the fifth day, when even Aslan was slacking off, that the scouts came to report that a large army was surrounding them.
"Number? Size? Whose enemy troops belong to?"
Aslan stood up from the main seat excitedly and asked as he walked.
"About eight hundred people! They are the Kaimen bandit group, and the leader is Kaimen." The scout said without thinking.
