The Most Lord

Chapter 71 Galen's Lie

The Gale Eagle landed directly in the lord's mansion in Folkestone Town in the night.

The Gale Eagle's target was so obvious, Galen and Swain in the Lord's Mansion naturally couldn't fail to notice it. They had already greeted the Gale Eagle when it flew over the Lord's Mansion.

"My lord!"

After Allen jumped off Gale Eagle, Galen and Swain bowed to Allen.

"Haha, you are doing very well, very well!"

After Allen landed, he patted Galen on the shoulder and laughed.

"Come on, tell me the story of the battle."

The three of them entered the chamber of the lord's mansion, and Galen told Allen about the capture of Folkestone Town.

Of course, Galen skipped the part where Swain let the evil crows eat the corpse.

When he heard that most of the soldiers in Folkestone Town surrendered without a fight, and there was basically no loss in the capture of Folkestone Territory this time, Allen laughed again.

This result was much better than he expected.

"By the way, where are the members of the Folkestone family? Have they been imprisoned?"

Allen asked Galen and Swain.

Allen has been thinking about how to deal with the members of the Folkestone family on the road. The Folkestone family is a big family with dozens of members.

According to the kingdom's law, Lord Folkestone's lord Spike defected to the Blue Shirt Army. This kind of behavior is undoubtedly treason, and all members of the clan will be sentenced to death.

But let Alan execute all these dozens of people, Alan really can't do it!

So Allen asked Galen and Swain about the whereabouts of these people, and wanted to meet these people first.

Hearing Allen's question, Galen and Swain looked at each other.

"My lord, when we stormed into the lord's mansion, the members of the Folkestone family would rather die than surrender. They fought us desperately with weapons, and they were all killed by us!"

Galen replied, eyes flickering slightly.

The actual situation is not like what he said.

The people of the Folkestone collar lived in the Lord's Mansion. After Galen captured the Lord's Mansion, he and Swain personally killed all of them!

From Galen's point of view, as a lord himself, he is good at everything, but sometimes he acts too kindly and cannot be ruthless.

Maybe he is a qualified lord who can let the residents of the territory live a good life through benevolent governance, but he is not a qualified king who expands the territory.

To become a qualified king, you can be kind to your own people, but you must be ruthless when you treat outsiders!

This outsider does not only refer to the enemy, but to all people outside of one's own influence. Even those who hold a neutral attitude must not show mercy when it is time to deal harshly with them.

If the members of the Folkestone family were left to the lord to deal with, maybe the lord would let them go if they pretended to be pitiful and begged. But after all, these people have enmity with the lord, so if they keep them, they will definitely be a disaster.

So Galen and Swain made their own decision to kill all the members of the Folkestone family before Allen arrived.

Hearing Galen's words, Allen frowned slightly, his eyes fixed on Galen and Swain.

How could he not see the strangeness here?

Galen looked down at Allen and didn't dare to look at Allen, but Swain had a wicked smile on his face, as if he didn't know what happened.

Finally, Allen sighed: "Since they would rather die than surrender, then no one else can be blamed."

Although he guessed that these people were killed by Galen and Swain without telling him, Allen didn't want to get to the bottom of it. After all, Galen and Swain did this for their own consideration.

They killed these people secretly, just because they were afraid that they would let them go in a moment of soft-heartedness, and these people would wait for an opportunity to retaliate against them after they escaped.

Then the three of Allen rushed to the barracks again, called the officers of the vanguard knights, frost archers, and light infantry together, arranged the work to be done tomorrow, and then went to rest.

Early the next morning, light infantry soldiers knocked on the doors of the residents of the town from house to house.

When the guard whistle sounded yesterday evening, most of the residents immediately hid in their homes and never came out again. In addition, the soldiers of the Huaxia Territory did not disturb the people, but directly captured the Lord's Mansion, so most of the residents did not know that Folkestone Town had changed hands.

These residents spent the night in fear at home, and heard knocks on the door early the next morning, and most of them were very disturbed.

Especially when they opened the door of their house and saw a group of completely unfamiliar soldiers standing in front of them, the uneasiness in their hearts reached a peak

"My lords, what's the matter?"

The residents looked at the Chinese soldiers in front of them and asked tremblingly.

Although not all soldiers are knights, when ordinary people see soldiers, they will call them knights to show their respect.

Many ordinary soldiers also like this title, as if they are really knights if they are called knights.

The attitude of the light infantry soldiers was neither kind nor vicious, and they said to the residents who opened the door with normal expressions.

"The Lord of Folkestone, Spike, took refuge in the blue shirt army of the rebellious force in the kingdom, intending to rebel, and was killed by Lord Alan Senlan, the baron of the kingdom."

"Starting from today, Folkestone Town will be temporarily taken over by Mr. Allen and merged into Mr. Allen's territory, Huaxia Territory."

"One hour later, Master Allen will announce the future management policy of the territory on the square in front of the Lord's Mansion. If you want to hear it, please gather at the square in advance."

The light infantry left these words and went on to inform the next family.

After the light infantry soldiers left, the residents of the town immediately exploded. People came out of the house one after another, talking about what happened today.

A white-haired old man leaned on a cane and said, "The Folkestone family has been running this territory for more than a hundred years. I never imagined that such an unfilial son would appear now. Rebelling against the kingdom is a serious crime that will kill the entire family!"

"I've known for a long time that the Folkestone family is not a good person, but I didn't expect them to be traitors. Now it's all right, being discovered by the kingdom, I really deserve to die!"

A young man gritted his teeth and said that he was once bullied by members of the Folkstone family, and now that he saw the fate of the Folkstone family, he felt extremely happy.

"But what is this Blue Shirt Army, why haven't I heard of it before?"

"I guess it's the group of soldiers in blue armor who entered the territory some time ago. I wondered where these people came from. It turned out to be the rebellion of the kingdom!"

"By the way, wait until the new lord, Mr. Allen, announces the management policy of the territory in the future, will you go?"

"Of course, I want to meet the new lord. I hope the new lord is not as greedy as the Folkestone family!"

In the Lord's Mansion.

"Jie Jie, my lord, the time is up."

Swain walked beside Allen and reminded.

Allen nodded: "Okay, let's go out."

Allen led Galen and Swain out of the Lord's Mansion. The square outside the Lord's Mansion was already full of residents of Folkestone Territory.

The light infantrymen worked hard to maintain order on the scene, and the residents were in awe of these strange soldiers, so although the scene was noisy, it was not chaotic.

Seeing the three of Allen coming out of the lord's mansion, people started talking.

"Is the one in front Mrs. Allen? So young!"

"I know the two people behind. They led the troops into the town last night."

"I don't know how the new lord is like, I hope he is a kind lord."

Allen stood on the steps at the entrance of the Lord's Mansion, looking at the bustling crowd below.

"Please be quiet, everyone!"

Allen said loudly, and suddenly, the noisy crowd fell silent.

Everyone stared at Alan, wanting to see what the new lord would say.
