The city in the distance could be clearly seen. Ronan sped up and finally arrived at the first town he had seen in the past few days, the city of Óbidos, which is famous for its mead and desserts.
This is a small city. It had no resistance when faced with the invasion of the Eagle Men. The Eagle Men captured it without much effort. Standing outside the city, Ronan could hear the noise inside. It seemed that
The city was not massacred.
Several corpses were hung above the gate outside the city. The corpses had been stripped naked and had been changed beyond recognition by the birds. However, judging from the words spelled out from the wounds carved with knives on the corpses, these corpses were like this
The lord of the city and his family.
"Your Majesty," is the common language of the Eagle people. What it spells out is, this place will eventually be owned by them, and this will be the fate of the rebels. Judging from the state of the corpse, it should have been hung up when they first captured the city.
.”
Magna walked to Ronan and said that in order to facilitate the battle with the Eagle People, he had deliberately studied the history and culture of the Eagle People, as well as their composition. Magna has a strong learning ability. Currently,
I can basically understand most of the Eagle characters.
"It seems that this city lord is not very popular among the people. The Eagle Men have been gone for so many days, but no one has put them down. You, take someone to bury the body!"
Ronan said something and then ordered a knight next to him to go to the city wall and put the body down. Then he walked into the city. The city gate was wide open like that, and the whole city was completely defenseless.
There was no one on the main road in the city. As soon as he entered the city gate, Ronan saw two gangster-looking men surrounding an old man on the street corner next to the main road. They were tearing away his package and fell down next to the old man.
A young man with blood all over his head apparently resisted and was knocked down.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves and the clanking of armor, and seeing the flag held by the knights in the front row of the team, the old man's face lit up and he immediately opened his mouth to ask for help. The two gangsters turned around and ran away, but they
How could two pairs of pairs outrun four legs? Ronan turned his head and glanced, and the two knights immediately chased after him.
The war horse quickly caught up with the two fleeing gangsters and stopped in front of them. Looking at the gleaming spears in the knight's hands, the two people could only return to their original positions obediently, and then knelt down with a thud to Ronan's side.
In front of them, they were kowtowing and begging for mercy. It was probably because they were forced to do so and were coerced by someone. If they didn't, their legs would be broken.
Ronan didn't believe a word they said. He turned to look at the old man who was also kneeling next to him and asked:
"Who are you, who are they, why did they attack you? What happened in the city, what is the situation now?"
The old man immediately crawled to the ground and kowtowed, and then said tremblingly:
"Sir, I am an ordinary citizen of Óbidos. I used to live on the edge of the inner city. I don't know them, but they stopped us when we were about to leave the city. They wanted to snatch our packages. My grandson
When he resisted, they hit him on the head with a stick, and he fell down there.
The city is now in chaos. The Eagles were fine after entering the city, but they just killed a lot of guards and nobles. But for some reason, they suddenly started killing a group of townspeople, and then killed all the guards.
, and then left here.
Without the guards, there is no one to manage the city, and these gangsters are even more rampant. They are smashing and looting everywhere. Yesterday, the door of the neighbor next to our house was broken down by the robbers. They raped their daughter and killed their whole family.
We were afraid, so we wanted to leave secretly. The city is too dangerous now, so we wanted to leave the city and hide somewhere else for a while."
"Okay, I understand, but it is very dangerous outside the city now. You should go home. I will handle the chaos in the city, so you don't have to worry anymore!
Go see his grandson and treat his wound! If the injury is serious, call the military doctor over."
Ronan nodded and said to the old man, and then called the knight beside him to see the injury of the young man who fell on the ground. The young man just fainted and had a wound on his head. Although there was a lot of blood,
It was nothing serious. The knight could handle it. After all, they also had battlefield first aid in their training. After simply applying some medicine and bandages, the knight called a few soldiers over and asked them to take the unconscious man.
He escorted the old man home. After all, the old man could not carry his grandson on his back.
"As for you, that 'butcher' you mentioned before, who is he? What did he ask you to do here? How many people are there under his command? How many bosses are there in the city now?"
"Sir, we are just innocent citizens. The 'Butcher' asked us to stay here and stop people to prevent them from leaving the town. Otherwise, they will kill us. We dare not disobey! The 'Butcher' has nearly a hundred people under his command.
Gangster, there are many forces in the city now, but 'Butcher' is the strongest among them!"
"The interface is full of loopholes. According to the laws of the empire, robbery is a felony. You can choose one for your head or your right hand!"
Ronan raised his eyebrows and said coldly. The two gangsters still wanted to quibble, but at Ronan's signal, Namintu stretched his huge head in front of them, slightly opening his mouth to reveal a mouth full of fangs and saliva.
The two gangsters swallowed hard, finally looked at each other, gritted their teeth and stretched out their right hands.
"Ah!!!" The knight behind them mercilessly pulled out his sword and cut off their right hands, then bandaged them to stop the bleeding and let them go.
After dealing with these two gangsters, Ronan turned around and said to the troops behind him:
"A large force is stationed outside the city. You, you, you, ten of you each will bring fifty people into the city to sweep them around. Don't let any thugs go. Those who resist will be killed on the spot!
You and I will go to the city lord's palace while Meluses and Trezeguet stay behind!"
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
The knights whose names were called by Ronan immediately responded, and each of them ordered fifty soldiers to lead the team and ran towards the city. After crossing the main road, they dispersed directly. This city is not big, and these ten groups of soldiers should not be able to reach it.
The entire city can be searched in half a day.
Ronan turned over and jumped off the Nanoentu, handed it to Meluses and asked him to feed the Nanoentu. After that, he led Ocid, Magna, Kemilla and a group of imperial legion infantry along the road.
As we walked towards the City Lord's Mansion, we could see a lot of blood on the ground along the way, and we could also see that many shops and residences had their doors smashed open.
Ronan was in a bad mood. He could already foresee what the next few cities he was going to look like. After a while, they would only be even more chaotic than now!
