Chapter 216. Suddenly captured spy
Lunch was quickly prepared.
The maids brought dishes one after another and placed them in front of the four of them.
Toasted crispy golden slices of bread, floured fried antelope meat, chunks of fried eggs, honey date compote, and a small glass of ale per person, plus a slice of steamed sausage.
A very sumptuous lunch can be regarded as Kant's greeting to the two.
The aroma of the food outside is also strong.
It's time to start dinner at noon.
With shouting, barrels of lunch were carried to residential areas and walled areas for soldiers and civilians to eat, as well as a two-hour lunch break to escape the scorching midday sun.
The atmosphere in the consul hall is still harmonious, and the four of them are chatting while eating.
Fatis threads the needle in the middle.
The occasional laughter and the reverence for the future between the words made the atmosphere very warm.
and in the face of Kant's praise, the two modestly excused themselves.
"This is not an excessive compliment, but a correct evaluation."
Seeing the two of them so humble, Kant smiled and said, "I appreciate your talents. ”
He had played the game and naturally understood what these NPCs were good at, so he opened his mouth and continued to arrange: "You all have your own areas of expertise, and then I will directly appoint you to the position you hold, I hope you will become familiar with this world as soon as possible and set a good example in your own position." ”
Hearing that the mission was to be appointed, Rolf and Bandak immediately looked solemn.
It was about their future work at the castle of Drehem and the impression on Kant's mind.
This is indeed something to be treated with caution.
And Kant already had a plan in mind for the field that the two of them were good at.
First he looked at Bandak and said, "In the southern mountains, I still have a village of the Rhodoc Kingdom to manage, and James is currently taking care of it there, but he is best at medical knowledge, and he is obviously weaker at managing villages and troops, so I plan to let you go over and help me manage that village." ”
"More than happy to oblige." Bandak immediately got up, bowed respectfully to Kant, and said solemnly: "I will do everything in my power to take care of that village for you." ”
"Well, that's good." Kant nodded.
Bandak sat back down.
Rolf next to him suddenly swept envious and jealous glances, but he also looked at Kant more eagerly.
Although Bhandak was not classified as an aristocrat by Kant.
However, it is an appointment with real power, similar to the positions of village head, town head, and mayor, and is a high-level official who can directly manage the village and the garrison troops, and the core management personnel in the future.
If you behave well, you will definitely have a chance to be a nobleman in the future.
Even Bandak was thrilled in his heart.
This is not the continent of Calradia, which requires blood, status, prestige, and honor, but a land of miracles full of opportunities and opportunities, a world that Lord Kant himself led them forward!
As long as you put in the effort, you will definitely get plenty of rewards.
Nobility is one of them!
Kant chuckled, looking at the eager and excited eyes of the two, this is what he wanted.
Inspire their enthusiasm with true fame and fortune.
Although due to the limitations of the system, they are always loyal to Kant, but everyone's personality is different, if you really plan to grind foreign workers, it is not impossible to work, and even these phenomena Kant has been reflected in some soldiers, especially those who like to steal and play tricks on weekdays, military discipline is not very good.
It was only because of the small number of troops and the strict management of the army that Fatis patrolled several times a day that this phenomenon of laxity due to temporary peace was curbed.
However, after the increase in the number of troops, the establishment of such a necessary department as the Judge Advocate General's Office should also be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
But it's going to take some time.
At present, Kant has to deal with the appointment of personnel and the improvement of the functions of each person.
"Rolf..."
Kant looked at the middle-aged man with a hideous face, but he looked modest and respectful.
"I'm here, Lord Kant." Rolf immediately stood up and nodded, with a little excitement on his face, and finally came to his appointment, and even more excited when he thought about it.
"You are a nobleman from the East."
Kant spoke, groaning slightly.
"Yes, that's right, I'm from a kingdom outside of the continent of Calradia." Rolf nodded, and said helplessly: "I'm still a nobleman, but I don't have much concept of managing the territory, so I can only entrust the territory to others, come to Calradia to try my luck and earn some dinars to go back." ”
He is not shy about not being part of the indigenous people of the continent of Calradia.
In other words, Calradia has long been a stage for other races.
There are a lot of outsiders.
Even kingdoms have been established, for example, the Nord Kingdom is from the Nord continent on the north side of the sea, the Vikia Kingdom is from the northeast across the snow-capped mountains, the Kugit Khanate is from the Kugit steppes on the other side of the mountains, and even the Saland Sultanate is a country formed by the migration of peoples from the depths of the desert.
The real Catradia natives are perhaps the Swadias and Rhodoks.
And both were once ancient Carradians.
"Hmm." Kant nodded.
He is also aware of this phenomenon, which is similar to the great integration of nationalities.
It's just that the process is a bit miserable.
The kingdom of Calradia was divided, and various once suppressed peoples established their own states and forces, and because of the poor political skills and military literacy of Haraus, the king of Svadia, the entire continent of Calradia fell into a dangerous storm.
However, the chaotic situation has also made many speculators, sensing the opportunity, to reach the continent of Calradia for various purposes, in an attempt to obtain some benefits in this war-torn continent.
That's how Rolf is.
He himself is a nobleman in other kingdoms, but his family is depressed because he does not know how to run it.
In order to revive the family, he had to come here, wanting to make a lot of dinars and go back.
It's just that the reality is a bit cruel.
Many careerists have made the continent of Calradia extremely chaotic, and Rolf, a rude nobleman who does not know how to do business and interpersonal communication, has been reduced to a person with an empty title of nobility, but lives like a bandit leader, no, it should be said that he is a bandit leader, and the title of villain nobleman is very appropriate.
Lead his own recruited troops to rob innocent passers-by and caravans, even raid villages, force villagers to offer supplies, and even kidnap city dwellers for ransom.
Rolf is a way to the dark, and he doesn't take his aristocracy seriously at all.
That's why Bandak and Fatis have a lot of opinions about him.
But it was nothing to Kant.
Since Rolf likes to rob and plunder, and can be called a bandit leader with aristocratic status and army commander quality, then in Kant's battle sequence, he has the position he is best at.
Lead the desert bandits to garrison the post station and stop more and more caravans and spies in the future!
Kant believed that this villain aristocracy who did not eat oil and salt could play well.
"Rolf."
Kant looked up at Rolf, who was still standing in his place, looking eagerly at his own.
Moaning slightly, organizing the language, Kant said: "I have given you an important task, I have a post station in the south, which is a key point to prevent anyone from coming here, and I need you to lead 100 desert bandits to patrol the area, and by any means, to prevent anyone from discovering the sentry oasis where we are. ”
"Well, that's right." Rolf raised his eyebrows slightly, his face did not show the slightest loss, but because of Kant's words, he couldn't help but smile: "Lord Kant, you mean, any means?" ”
"That's right." Kant nodded, "By any means." ”
"Thank you for your appointment!"
A strange smile appeared on Rolf's face, but he immediately bent down respectfully: "Under my patrol, no one will appear in the Sentry Oasis, unless they are captured captives, or dead corpses. ”
Kant was pleased with his statement: "Remember what you say. ”
"Yes." Rolf bent down to caress his chest and saluted respectfully.
That's what he's good at.
These desert bandits, Rolf is naturally no stranger, and even has had in-depth exchanges with these bandits in the Salander desert, and has worked together several times.
Don't look at the Salander Desert is quite barren.
But the nobles and merchants living in those two oases can be called rich.
If you do a few big deals, you can get a lot of dinars.
The four of them were chatting when suddenly the door to the Consulate was pushed open.
The Swadia knight, who was guarding the outside, walked in and reported with a solemn face: "Lord Kant, the desert bandits in charge of patrolling have found several spies and are now being escorted to their cells, and at the same time ask you what to do. ”
"Spies?" Kant frowned.
Fatis also turned his head to look at Rolf and Bandak.
Just now they were still discussing how to deal with the increasing number of spies in the Lion Principality.
Rolf, who was about to be appointed as the inspector of the post station, couldn't help but snort coldly, and said viciously to Kant: "This group of rat-like guys is the most despicable, I think they should all be killed, stick their heads in the spears, let the other guys see, and understand the fate of daring to offend your majesty!" ”
"Wait, let's go to the cell and interrogate these spies."
Kant shook his head, not agreeing with Rolf.
After a moment of deep silence, he still raised his head and said to the three people: "I really didn't expect that their speed is really fast enough, I don't know which nobles sent spies can touch the vicinity of our castle." ”
"It's noteworthy." Fatis opened his mouth to remind.
"Hmm." Kant nodded: "Let's go." ”
With that, he stood up and led the three men towards the cell, which was just in the southeast corner of the castle.
A large cell that has just been built.
There are dungeons, water dungeons, interrogation rooms, detention rooms, etc.
Two able-bodied civilians were stationed as guards.
And on the city walls, 5 Vekian marksmen are watching this large cell, and if there is any riot, the bows and arrows in their hands will not show the slightest mercy.
