Soul of Burning Steel

After saying this, Joshua did not wait for the suddenly noisy crowd to calm down, but continued preaching on her own: "Some of you should have known me already, but today’s topic is not this— -Maybe you still don’t know, my father, the old lord, died in an accident, and my uncle invaded the main city while I was away, expelled my knight, and planned to seize my title."

　　 "You must have a deep memory, because not long ago, their group of people's patrol was still on my street, but don't worry, they have completely disappeared and won't come again."

　　 At this moment, he paused, waiting for the surging crowd to digest the news, and then said loudly: "Because I have killed all the chiefs."

The originally troubled crowd was silent for a moment, and then there was a burst of cheers-everyone present had been threatened and blackmailed by the foreign patrol, otherwise, even if it is cold in winter, there will not be much When people go out, the people of the North are simple and honest. If that kind of life is more than a few days later, you will definitely have a black hand behind your back, but since your own lord does it for you, it is natural to celebrate first.

As for the naked, naked, and proclaimed force of killing...Only a truly powerful person can lead knights and soldiers to expand their territory, resist the dark tide, and protect their territory. The people, since the new lord has demonstrated his strength, Then cheer for him.

Amidst the cheers, Joshua said concisely: "My leader, you can live as before and walk freely on your own land. All those who have been blackmailed and hurt can come to St. Laurent. The cathedral receives compensation-don’t try to lie, the priest of the **** of justice is watching you. Okay, that’s it. This year, families with newborn babies are exempt from tax for one year.

　　 There was a louder cheer, and Joshua waved his hand to the bottom at random, then turned and walked off the platform.

　　 "Firefly, let's go, Atanis will take care of the next thing."

"Yes Master."

　　 Time flies, November 15, the frosty moon, six days after the declaration.

　　 Frost spreads with the wind, everything freezes, and white completely covers the fields and pastures. The farmers have harvested the last wave of hardy plants, and the herders drove the cattle and sheep back to their huts. Everyone began to prepare to face this winter.

The Conflict Continent Mycroft, from the blank sea at the far north end to the cape cliff at the far south, every inch of its land is incredibly fertile, and the growth of plants is abnormally fast due to the influence of magic. The product of the multiplication of the people is the source of disaster, [Black Forest], which makes all human forces extremely troubled.

Outside the center of human power, at various fortresses on the frontier of civilization, the swiftly spreading black jungle grows endlessly, expanding like a plague, and wantonly invading the living space of mankind. Among them, countless beasts have grown up as pioneers and turned into dark tides , Destroying towns and villages, and using bones and blood as fertilizer to nourish a black forest. These cursed trees can grow to a height of tens of meters in only three years. The canopy is overwhelming. The forest is full of various plants, and the miasma is permeated, just like a foreign world.

　　The frontier fortresses closer to the Black Forest must be surrounded by dense forests or huge grasslands. Numerous monsters lurking in them, staring at them, and there is only a path covered with blood and bones linking the rear as the only passage.

Because of the severe cold, the Northland is fairly stable in this regard. The ice cold inhibits the activity of plants, and the rate of felling can easily exceed the growth rate of these plants. Therefore, the pressure on the Black Forest Fortress of Moldavia is not like the southern border of the empire. The peers are so big.

This situation has both disadvantages and advantages. Because of the characteristics of plants and land, civilians in this world are not difficult to live, at least they are much happier than those of Joshua’s previous life in the Middle Ages. Because of the peculiarities of the earth, no one is worried about food. However, the vitality of food in this world is comparable to weeds. One mu of field can harvest at least three crops of wheat a year. Even in places like the North, two crops are very simple. Sometimes the wheat mutates and even requires a master and virtue. Rui came to control and couldn't let them grow beyond the boundaries.

Although cattle and sheep and other animal husbandry can easily return to the wild due to magic power, they also grow very quickly. As long as there are enough feed tubes, they can quickly get out of the juvenile period in about two weeks, and it will take about three quarters. It can be officially harvested, and its speed is incredible. After all, it is a magical fantasy world, no matter how strange it is, it is normal.

　　 In the other courtyard west of the city, Joshua was sitting in the study, frowning at the letters in her hand.

　　 After becoming a lord, I have to say that I am very busy. I don’t actually need him to maintain the order of the city and the various chores in the domain under his name. What the fighters need to pay attention to is actually only the people who manage the work underneath.

　　 What really troubled him was all kinds of letters.

As the successor to the Earl of the Northland, the new lord of Moldavia, since the day before yesterday, the courtesy letters from other nobles in the empire have almost been endless, not to mention the allegiance of the knights in Joshua’s own realm. Documents-He must prepare an etiquette reply to every letter, and make different answers according to the other party's history and status. This is the most basic etiquette for nobles.

　　 Where did Joshua do such a thing before? Every time he writes about this thing is a kind of painful torture for him. Several times, the soldier uncle wanted to smash the desk in front of him with a punch, but he used great willpower to hold it back abruptly.

"Tsk, shit, the lord's mansion is completely destroyed. The few civilians who helped my dead ghost father draft documents were driven away by the dead ghost uncle. Now the group of people are probably spending the winter in their hometown in the country, and it is estimated that they will not be able to call back in a short time. "

　　 Finally, he signed the reply to a certain frontier marquis with a beautiful scribble. Joshua temporarily put down the halfling pen in his hand and drank a cup of tea to soothe the spirit.

The old servants and the government affairs processing team around the old earl have been scattered because Danlia's actions have been scattered, and most of them have gone to various families for the winter~www.novelmtl.com~ Now Joshua is almost a polished commander, and she can only kiss everything. With all my strength, this situation will probably continue in the spring of the coming year. Fortunately, it only needs to reply once, and it will not be repeated once it is done.

　　 "Master, there is another letter for you."

　　 There was a voice full of spirit and silver hair in the hall. Recently, I haven't done anything. I just kept passing letters to Joshua and occasionally helping with food.

　　 "This is the first few letters today..."

Qiao Xiuya couldn't help sighing, but after covering his forehead for a few seconds, he seemed to have figured out something, and then he said to the direction of the hall with a serious face: "Hyattella, if there is a letter next time, you will do it yourself Open it and take a look, don’t give it to me if it’s not important, you just need to reply as you like."

　　 "Eh, can I? But this letter looks expensive."

　　 Yingying took an envelope that looked very luxurious and even gilded on the edge and ran to the entrance of the study, with green eyes open and wondering: "I'll fill it out? Isn't this bad?"

　　 "...This letter is to me, the rest is okay."

　　 Joshua stood up and picked up the golden envelope: "I think you might write better than me."

He wasn't talking nonsense. Although Firefly looks relatively young, in fact, the database in his mind has everything except for the old ones. The first-hand imperial style scribble is much better than that of a professional warrior, Joshua. The format of the reply is mostly the same, which is not a problem.

　　 opened the envelope in his hand, and Joshua took out a platinum invitation card from it.
