Chapter 169

After the hill scholar explained something to them, he took the three of them out of the study. They planned to go to the city hall in the market.

First, let the three of them recognize the door. Second, we can discuss some details, such as blocking the road.

Hill scholars intend to let Lehman send some soldiers to be stationed in the village of Bligh, but there is no suitable manpower now, because the crossbow squadron originally planned to stay in isaacburg is still in training.

Although these crossbow soldiers have experienced a battle, they are basically playing soy sauce. They just experience the atmosphere of the battlefield. They don't grow as fast as the spearmen.

However, the spearmen also paid a painful price for their rapid growth, so these crossbow soldiers still need to be trained for a period of time, and now they can't bear the heavy responsibility of standing alone.

Therefore, scholar hill can only ask Nord to lend him the elite soldiers who rushed to three villages with them today. Nord originally planned to take them all back to Tami village.

But now that scholar hill has spoken, Nord can only give him face. He wants the five Amun warriors to return to Bligh village with village head Joel today and ride on horses. If anything happens, he can quickly report it to Lehman who stayed in isaacburg.

It was originally agreed that after a while, Lehman arranged for the crossbow soldiers to complete the handover work and then let them return to Nord. However, Nord estimated that in addition to the task of recruiting new soldiers, it was estimated that the five Amun warriors could not return for a while. Nord simply left them to Lehman, which was regarded as supporting Lehman's work.

After scholar Hill left, Nord was left alone in the study. Now he was at leisure. Nord got up and looked at the busy servants outside the window. He felt it was time to leave isaacburg and return to Tami village. Because Nord doesn't need to worry here anymore.

Scholar hill is responsible for things outside the castle. Butler Abel takes care of things inside the castle. There is nothing about Nord at all. It's better to go back to Tami village now and arrange future plans in advance. Butler Abel will go back to Tami village to help Nord after he is busy with things in the castle.

Nord moved quickly and directly informed the remaining soldiers of the Lancer squadron. After saying hello to abbot, he set out. Because he had to take care of the soldiers' injuries, Nord walked very slowly. When he returned to Tami village, it was dark.

Nord directly let the spearmen dissolve in place. Looking at the back of the soldiers leaving, Nord felt bad. They were all bandaged and staggered. Nord brought them back to let them go home and have a good rest for a while.

Since they joined the army, they have been training in the barracks and have no chance to reunite with their families. At that time, Nord was very strict with discipline and mainly wanted them to concentrate on training and have combat effectiveness as soon as possible. Now I think I'm sorry for them.

Especially for those soldiers who can't come back, Nord will be even more uncomfortable. When he set out, the fifty Spearman squadron was full. At that time, everyone was heroic, but now only 22 people have come back, and they are also covered with scars.

The only thing Nord can do now is to compensate them. Nord is going to pay a pension to their relatives, but Nord is not going to pay it at one time, but in the form of monthly salary for 20 years. According to the salary now set by Nord, the pension for a soldier is at least two gold coins.

If he took out so much money at one time, Nord would certainly hurt his muscles and bones, and it is not necessarily a good thing to put such a large amount of money in their hands. Monthly distribution is just the best of both worlds, which not only alleviates Nord's pressure, but also protects the relatives of the soldiers killed in battle from being missed by people with ulterior motives.

Nord returned to the manor at night and looked at the pale moonlight in the sky. He didn't know what kind of situation it would be when those relatives who stayed in Tami village learned that their relatives died in battle. Nord didn't even dare to imagine the sad scene.

However, Nord still plans to go to the home of every soldier killed in battle. This is Nord's responsibility. They chose to sacrifice for Nord, and Nord can't be ungrateful. However, Nord's head is big when he thinks of what will happen tomorrow.

Back at the manor, Cindy, the little SM, was the first to find Nord. As Cindy grew up, she became more and more human. I don't know how she knew that Nord was coming back, but as soon as Nord arrived at the door, Cindy rushed up directly.

"Meow ~"

Nord's hands suddenly became heavy. The little Bobcat has now become a big bobcat. According to Nord's observation, the little Bobcat with only five or six months old is not inferior to the adult bobcat. It is not much smaller than the adult Bobcat suspected of Cindy's mother encountered by Nord in the mountains.

Nord didn't know if it was the system that made Cindy grow very fast and become smarter, but unfortunately, Cindy didn't get experience in this war. Because Nord didn't know whether the battle was very dangerous, he didn't take Cindy with him.

So this little guy didn't upgrade his experience as he did last time. However, compared with the upgrade, Nord hopes Cindy can live safely and don't want accidents. Now Cindy is not just a pet. Nord has treated it as a family.

It has become the sustenance of Nord's heart. They both live alone in the world. Whenever Nord misses his hometown late at night, only Cindy can bring Nord comfort. Now Nord can't live without Cindy.

When Nord entered the stone building of the manor, she alerted her maid, Ali. When she saw Nord, she looked very happy. She trotted all the way to Nord and greeted him with concern;

"Lord Nord, why are you back? Is the war going well? Are you hurt? Why didn't Abbot come back with you."

Nord rubbed Ali's small head. Just entering the stone building, she was asked by Ali for a while. Especially when Ali asked about Abel's housekeeper, she also stretched her head and looked behind Nord for fear that Abel's housekeeper would suddenly appear and criticize her. Like Nord, Abel's housekeeper was the most afraid thing in the castle.

Nord is afraid of Abel's housekeeper's nagging, while Ali is afraid of Abel's housekeeper's criticism, especially as Nord's maid, Ali is often criticized by Abel's housekeeper, especially sometimes it is clearly Nord's fault, and it is the maid Ali who is scolded in the end, and Nord is gloating.

In particular, Nord has no airs, so Ali and Nord get along very easily. Especially after they are familiar with each other, Nord often makes jokes with ALI and regards her as her sister. And Ali also likes to get along with Nord, mainly because Nord can tell stories to make her happy.

Because with the promotion of Ali's status in the manor, even her biological father dare not scold her casually. Ali is not afraid of Nord, the owner of the castle, but of the strict Abel housekeeper. Every time Ali sees Abel housekeeper, it's like a mouse sees a cat.
