Warlord: King of All Clans

After walking a little further, they arrived at the river mouth town. Hermann saw a minotaur in the crowd, brainwashing several ogres.

In his hand, he was holding a large bag of cassava pastries, which contained the latest products of the cassava flour processing factory.

A large group of human children, kobolds, and a few ogres were all drooling at the pastries in his hands.

The minotaur Strong ate one pastry at a time, pretending to be intoxicated by the delicious food, and then gave it to the ogre to try.

The small pastry was like a pea in the ogre's mouth, and he swallowed it without even chewing it.

This obviously did not satisfy the ogres, and the leader, Kroger, roared, "Delicious cakes, I want more!"

Si Zhuang persuaded him, "This is for the Kobolds to eat. The Kobolds have copper mines, iron mines, and saltpeter mines. They can eat whatever they want!"

He looked at a dog, "What kind of dog-headed person are you?"

"I'm a black kobold!"

"Okay!" Strong handed out a pastry.

Then he asked a human child, "What kind of kobold are you?"

The human child was much smarter, "I'm a tall kobold!"

"Good!" The human child successfully obtained the reward.

Strong looked at Kroger, "What kind of Kobold are you?"

"Me! Me!" Kroger stared at the delicious cake in Strong's hand. He wanted to say that he was an Orgay, but he couldn't say it for a long time. Finally, he said in frustration: "I am a fat kobold!"

Strong was overjoyed and stuffed all the remaining cakes to Kroger, "Fat Kobold, my people, please have some cakes!"

Standing on a high place, Strong preached loudly to the people around him: "Listen to me, join the Kobold Tribe, and you will never have to worry about food and drink!"

Kroger, who had always been proud of the Orgai people, suddenly felt a sense of belonging to the Kobolds.

Herman was already very alert when he saw a large group of aliens gathering, and he clenched his sword tightly. Only when he saw Leo coming over to listen in on the study did he force himself to suppress his desire to fight.

At this time, I heard their conversation content, which was even more incredible, "This, this is a cult, right?"

Leo rubbed his chin, "Although it looks like one, it doesn't seem to be one. What does a cult in the North look like? I'll formulate rules and regulations when I get back."

Even with the Count's knowledge, Hermann was stumped by the question.

There is no definition of cults in the North. No one cares about the messy sects, strange rituals, human sacrifices, and lung and heart removal.

Local rulers will only carry out purges if they feel threatened.

Apparently, after the Kobold King Fisa was imprisoned in Riverbend Elementary School by Olivia, her missionary ability was inherited by Strong, and now she has begun to attack humans and ogres.

Compared to Strong's cunningness, Fraser's operation suddenly seemed much more immature.

But Leo was not worried. Humans were not so easy to deceive and would not really think of him as a kobold.

With the ogre's brain, he might be successfully brainwashed by Strong, but it would be good if he could be recruited by Strong and become a reliable fighting force.

Although the ogres are powerful, they are somewhat unruly. Leo finds it difficult to use them, so he can only let them guard the house and catch crocodiles. He dares not send them out to fight, for fear of accidents on the battlefield.

Leo could only comfort himself, "I hope the cunning Strong can bring some surprises."

Herman's worldview was completely refreshed, and he couldn't help but persuade Leo, "It will not be good for your reputation to take in aliens. Maybe others will use this crime to punish you."

Leo shook his shoulders nonchalantly, "In my territory, anyone who can speak human language has human rights. As for the charges, even if there are no charges, others will still come."

Hearing Leo's words, Herman fell silent.

When they reached the gate of Isenpor City, they saw Knight Solovy leading his troops out again.

After Rigolav took charge of Isenbor, the Solovi Knights could no longer work for the Riverbend.

He was captured by his eldest brother to lead troops, and often rushed to various places to provide assistance and protection to the knights of Isenbol.

Knight Solovy was obviously in a hurry, and he did not dismount from his dragon-scale horse. He just saluted to the two men on the horse and led his troops away.

Herman and Leo looked at each other. The latter endured for a long time, but finally couldn't help but say, "This is really not mine. It belongs to someone else."

"Yeah, yeah, single-handedly, Riomondo."

Arriving at the lord's castle, the two finally met Leo's chief godfather, Rigolav.

After taking control of Isenbol, Rigolav took the opportunity to expand and got a knight's territory for his son Roman. Now there are five knights in one family, five knight's territories, two hundred light cavalry and five hundred armored soldiers.

The number of corner flags secretly pledging allegiance to him also suddenly increased several times.

But Rigolav was a conservative and arrogant person, and he was not willing to accept everyone. Some corner flags who came to him for help were even scolded by him, and could only go back to farm in shame.

The corner flag in a small place is just a leader of soldiers. He will show goodwill to you and fight with you, but the prerequisite is money and food.

Even Ulyanovich is no exception.

But some people, after getting the benefits, will really follow suit, while some will wait and see which way the wind is blowing before taking action.

In addition to further expanding his own power, Rigolav took control of the taxation of the city of Isenpol and also trained a city defense force to strengthen the defense of Isenpol.

After deducting a large amount of noble spending, Isenbol's taxes were used where they should be used, and the economy recovered rapidly.

With the arrival of the Hewan cleaning team, the streets have become cleaner.

In the North, lords who have both military power and abide by the rules are undoubtedly more loved. Although Rigolav has the reputation of being "stingy", he is at least better than Tariq.

With him in charge, Isenbol was calm, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing Hermann coming in person, Rigolav was even more surprised. He not only went out to greet him, but also took the lead in saluting, "My Lord Earl!"

Unlike Leo, he was a legitimate vassal of Count Fruilov and a Knight of the Banner personally conferred by Hermann's father.

The square-banner knights of Isenpol would also go to the main city of Frovald to meet the earl's vassal every other year, and would also be summoned to join the battle when a large-scale war broke out.

In terms of loyalty to Fruilov, Rigolav is much more loyal than Leo.

"Knight Rigolav." Hermann responded enthusiastically without calling himself a count.

After Herman explained his purpose, Rigolav immediately looked at Leo, and then said to Herman: "Mr. Count, please rest for a while at home. I will go to prepare lunch. Leo, please follow me."

After asking his butler to prepare tea and put Herman to rest, Rigolav took Leo out of the reception room and asked, "Alliance? What do you think?"

"Knot!" Leo had already had this inclination.

Rigolav shook his head. "Once you form an alliance, Victor of Ilanrado will be the first to attack you, and he will have a legitimate reason. If you form an alliance with Victor, the most you have to do is send some corner flags over, and you can even stay here and watch them fight each other."

Leo laughed: "He has a small town of 10,000 people, how many soldiers can he have? I have an alliance with Herman, and he still dares to send troops to attack Isenpol?"

Rigolav looked at an idiot. "Victor's wife is the daughter of Count Beboos. Two hundred miles downstream from Isenpol is the Earldom of Beboos."

Leo was completely numb. It was this damn aristocratic marriage again.

"No wonder Herman wanted to form an alliance with me. He was really a little panicked."

"I'm not panicking. His wife is Count Beowulf's niece. If he really drags outsiders into the war, Count Herman will still have the advantage."

"I'm afraid it's easier to get someone in than to get them out. Count Hermann is not a fool and knows how serious the consequences are, but his brother may not be the same."

"He would rather seek an alliance with a rebellious vassal like you than seek outside assistance."

Rigolav was worried. "If Victor brings the legion supported by the Beboos family to fight Isenbol, will Hermann be willing to ask Count Beowulf to help?"

Leo was annoyed by what he heard and could only judge based on his intuition, "That's true, but smart people and stupid people can never get along, right?"
