Lord of the North

Francis City, the administrative center of the north, has now developed into a prosperous and large city with more than 30,000 permanent corps, rather than a town where all the soldiers and civilians combined were only less than 10,000.

It is also the resident of the World Mercenary Association, the birthplace of the top mercenary organizations, and the northern casino city of Erbia is not far away.

Those poor civilians who once lived here are now rich because of Jason's generous policies, and one by one followed the Francis Chamber of Commerce to become the local merchant class.

Although not as good as those who have seized the opportunity and won the honorary title of nobility, it is also much better than before.

Today, outside the city gate in the heart of the north, a group of people all covered in robes greeted us. The man in the middle looked up and looked at the fortified and heightened city wall and the gate. The long line on the outside platoon suddenly sighed with emotion: "It's not easy. This is the first time I have this feeling of going home."

Of course these people are Jason and Spartan warriors, because Jason wants to relax and take a good tour of the northern scenery on the way back to Francis City, so they hide their armor and weapons with their robes. Seventeen of the hundred Spartans who served as Jason's bodyguard in this war died in the battle, which made him sad for a long time.

"The change is so big." Cuchurin whispered while looking at the city. He didn't stay in this city for a long time, and was soon taken by Jason to the Harauja Empire for the appointment.

"Let's go, let's go in and take a look." Before he left, he was given the care of the city by the old man Dia. The former town mayor turned into a prominent figure in the north, and more importantly, he was the first one. One of Jason's allegiance.

Although his son was only a knight, and he himself did not even have a knighthood, no one dared to look down upon him. In the north under Jason's rule, the nobles did not have such great privileges.

Now they only have the management and taxation rights of their own territories, but they have no ownership and conscription rights. Even if they have some privileges, they will not be too outrageous. Even in order to restrain these nobles, Jason deliberately set up a joint court.

The gap between the northern aristocracy and the southern is so big, but there is still no aristocrat who wants to leave the north to join Phil, it is because after Jason took over the north, they vigorously developed water transportation and commercial activities, although their rights have shrunk. , But their accumulated wealth is even greater.

It’s just that I don’t know how Elder Dia’s health has been over the years. You have to know that the old man is almost 70 years old.

A group of people lined up at the back of the line and slowly followed the line inside.

Maybe it’s because there are too many mercenaries going in and out on weekdays. The guards at the city gate didn’t question them too much when they saw that they were raw faces. They simply told them something to pay attention to after entering the city, especially absolute. Cannot enter the inner city with weapons.

The so-called inner city was the town of Iron Tooth at the beginning. Later, the city expanded and it became the most important inner city. Because Jason’s castle was there, only the earliest aborigines and some powerful people lived in the inner city. Inside, and the land price here is also the most expensive.

You can’t even buy it now.

After entering the city, Kuchurin kept frowning, and he whispered to Jason: "His Royal Highness, this city gate guard is too perfunctory? What if we are not mercenaries, but enemies with unpredictable hearts?"

Just when they entered the city, a Spartan warrior said that they were members of the mercenary group, and then the guards didn't even check their mercenary certificate, and just asked them casually to let them in.

"It's a bit loose. It reminds me of the earliest Ironfang Guard." Jason squinted and said. The former Ironfang Guard was a group of unorganized and disciplined soldiers.

And the long, stable and peaceful life made these people gradually disappear the tension they should have.

After only three years, have people here forgotten the hardships they once had? The current military chief of Francis City should be Leonidas, who is responsible for managing the military forces here and restraining Albania.

Because Erbia was originally an acropolis of Francis City, acting as a barrier in front, to avoid being caught off guard when the enemy was not prepared enough, so the military there was later managed by Francis City.

And Erbia’s managers are Ronnate and Kay, one in charge of the army and the other in charge of government affairs.

Jason's face doesn't look good when he thinks about it. What are Leonidas and Ronald these guys doing? !

"His Royal Highness, shall we go back to the castle first?" Seeing that Jason looked ugly, Hassan asked softly. He thought there might be hidden secrets in it. Leonidas and the others could not be so unreliable in doing things.

"No, first go to the general association of the mercenary guild to find out about the situation~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The mercenary guild was completely run by Jason. It was originally run by Ronald as the manager, and later resigned from this position.

It is still managed by Jason’s direct subordinates. One of them is Yaos, who is called the mercenary tiger by the mercenary world. The earliest leader of the mercenary group is a legendary mercenary who once participated In the civil war of a small western country, and led his own mercenary group to successfully help the small royal family rebel, and he was a great knight under Jason.

Soon after, Jason read the information given by Yaos with a gloomy face, standing in front of him the legendary mercenary Yaos, behind him are Hassan and Cuchurin.

"Earl Zaogu..." He looked at the name on the intelligence with a murderous look. It was this person who was entrusted to temporarily manage the outer city of Francis when Leonidas and others led troops to the front line. Thinking that after the war, Leonidas discovered that this man had secretly corrupted the management of the outer city.

And they used their power to make money, but their hands and feet were too clean, Leonidas and the others did not find the little tail in it, and there was no excuse to move him.

And this Count Zaogu was the second batch of nobles who turned to Jason, and he brought Jason a lot of help. His identity was very sensitive, and Jason was not here. Leonidas and the others really didn’t touch him. s right.

"It seems that I haven't come back for three years, and some people have already raised ideas that they shouldn't have."

"Because of the huge benefits of the outer city, there are a group of nobles around Count Zaogu, and it will be very troublesome if he moves." Yaos said respectfully.

"Trouble? The blood on the soldiers' blades hasn't been cleaned yet." Jason sneered.
