Rise of the Plants

Hogarth's eyes changed, and then he said helplessly: "Sir, do you really want to use the army? If we use the army for this kind of thing, the parliament will not support us, and our army..."

What Hogarth wanted to say was that his army was no match for the Red Sand Ridge army, but after thinking about it he still did not say it. If the lord says this when he is in a bad mood, he will be in trouble.

For the sake of his own future, Hogarth decided to keep his mouth shut.

Sure enough, Farah had no intention of listening at all, and shouted loudly: "This kind of thing? This kind of thing, my territory has become like this, I almost can't eat, why don't you let the army be used? Even if it is The royal family is here, so I will do the same." Farah danced, as if venting her dissatisfaction.

But Hogarth knew his master very well, so he couldn't help but curl his lips. His own lord dared to say this in private. If he went out, let alone face the royal family, would he dare to do this even if he faced several big nobles in Remas?

You know, behind Farah, there are several big nobles in Remas who support it. Unfortunately, the rise of Red Shaling has caused Huangshaling to lose its original value. The iron ore in Remas is far inferior to the red sand steel.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door. "Damn it, whoever dares to disturb me at this time, come in. If you don't have anything important to do, I will twist off your head and hang it on the flagpole."

As soon as he finished speaking, a guard walked in from the gate. The guard gritted his teeth, his eyes full of fear. Because he knew that his lord could really do such a thing.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Farah stared at the guard who disturbed him.

The guard swallowed his saliva and said cautiously: "Master Qi, just now, we just received news that our army, the army destroyed the caravan. Now the caravan has completely collapsed."

"What? What bastard dares to do this?" Farah was surprised that his army didn't even obey orders. "Come with me. I want to see which bastard dares to attack my caravan." Your caravan is the lifeblood of your territory and your source of income. Now it was actually broken by our own people.

The group of people ran out quickly, and when they arrived at the caravan headquarters, they saw nothing but ruins. The things inside were thrown aside in a mess, and there were many people lying on the ground.

Many of these people died on the spot, and no one dared to mess around. Those who were injured were also lying on the ground wailing. There was no one nearby, but in the distance there were heads sticking out from hidden places, looking here.

"Bastard, bastard, they are all bastards, who did this, come out. If I don't kill that bastard today, how will I behave in the future." Farah was furious. He never thought that things would turn out like this.

"Sir, there is no one left. Those soldiers ran away after attacking us." The person in charge of the caravan ran out. Before, he had been hiding and didn't dare to come out at all.

"Tell me what happened, why they attacked you, and whether it was you who caused the trouble." Farah is now eager to find someone to take the blame so that he can vent his anger.

The caravan leader swallowed and felt cold sweat dripping down his body. "Lord, it's really not my fault. It's all those soldiers who insisted on saying that we drove up prices and made it difficult for them to survive, so they came to rob. All the remaining things in our caravan were robbed. gone."

"Lord, we really didn't intentionally raise prices. It's because the external taxes are too high. If we don't raise prices, let alone make money, we will definitely lose a lot." The person in charge of the caravan was about to cry. .

Farah took a deep breath, the anger in her heart was about to explode. "It's prices again, it's prices again. Can't we survive if the prices increase a little bit? Can't we eat less? Can't we find food by ourselves?"

Everyone closed their mouths and lowered their heads, no one dared to speak. The lord was a noble and had never experienced the feeling of hunger. He didn't know what irrational things people who went crazy with hunger would do. But at this time, whoever dares to speak out will become Farah's target, and who knows what will happen.

"No, no, the soldiers in our territory have rebelled." A soldier ran over from a distance. If you look carefully, you can still see the color on the soldier's face, which shows that he is obviously malnourished.

"Explain to someone what happened." Farah stepped forward angrily, grabbed the soldier's collar and pulled him over.

When the soldiers saw that it was the lord, they did not dare to resist, and said quickly: "Lord Qi, just now, an army in our territory attacked the sentry post, and now they have all run out. Also, there are others in the territory. All the civilians took advantage of this opportunity and ran away. There were farmers and miners, there were many..."

The soldier talked incoherently, and with great difficulty, Farah finally figured out that the soldiers who had robbed the caravans in his territory had indeed organized themselves and fled with their belongings.

The outermost sentry was directly destroyed. Most of those who dared to continue to defend were killed, and only a few escaped. This means that you don't have many soldiers left at Huangsha Ridge, and you have become a bare commander.

There were also those farmers and miners who fled one by one. All of a sudden, the originally barren Huangsha Ridge now probably didn’t have much of a population left. Normally, Farah doesn't care about the civilians, but Farah knows that without the civilians, his territory will be over. No one is planting or mining, so what are you going to do?

"Damn it, you are all trash, you are all trash, you can't do even a small thing well, and it has become like this, what use do I need from you!" Farah's eyes were red, and he squatted on the ground holding his head.

Everyone around them lowered their heads. They had never seen Farah in such a state of desolation. If you still stare at it at this time, if you are reminded of it later, the outcome may not be very good.

Farah himself fell into silence. Who would have thought that in such a short time, Huangshaling, which was originally in a good situation, would completely collapse from the inside. This is an economic sanction.

"Hahahaha, sanctions, very good, really sanctions. Damn half-elf, I will remember you." Farah slowly raised his head and stared hard at his north, where the half-elf was.
