Chapter 177

There are fewer exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes, but the overall security problem is serious.

road hog.

Village bully.

Bandits.

…

A large number emerged.

However, the public security system composed of former refugees cannot effectively contain it at all, and it has never even thought of containing it, because it can take money from these people.

In short.

Life was hard, and the sale of children, daughters, and slavery was common.

"Are you still going to the city?" Some people hesitated.

"Forget it today."

"That's right, go home first, and watch it in a few days."

"Uh-huh."

"..."

Firstly, he was frightened by the scene just now, and secondly, he knew that the city guards would definitely intervene. When he came back, it was very likely that Luka would be stricter.

Be cautious first and wait and see.

. . .

soon.

When the City Guards received the news, a large group of troops rushed to Luca.

"..."

Everyone's heart trembled, the entire Luka's soldiers were all crippled with one finger, and the leader's arms were cut off, too much air was released and less air was taken in, and his life was dying.

It seems that he will not live long.

Just ask.

It turned out that the other party couldn't get used to it, that's why they were so cruel.

"My lord, what should we do now?"

"Chase."

When something like this happened, of course it couldn't be treated as if it didn't happen.

"yes."

"Tread!"

More than two hundred people rode their horses and chased Shu Fu. They thought they would catch up soon. However, due to the bad road conditions, the horses couldn't run fast at all.

After chasing for almost an hour, I didn't even see a shadow.

When I asked someone on the official road, the other party had passed by for a long time.

"How could it be so fast?"

"My lord, are you still chasing me?"

"Chasing, I don't believe his carriage doesn't need to stop."

"..."

Ever since, the cavalry team continued to run wildly.

. . .

Twenty miles ahead.

Shu Fu's carriage was also running, the official road had been in disrepair for a long time and was full of potholes, but the tires of the carriage were large and with shock absorption, it was faster than the cavalry behind.

Purely in a hurry, not afraid of being chased by the other party.

You know, after upgrading to level 4 this time, the mall has updated a lot of big guys, and if they really want to be chased, there are a few standing on both sides of the road, covered by a torrent of metal.

Never mind!

But in order to avoid the early exposure of this weapon to attract attention.

Shu Fu still didn't plan to use it if he could.

. . .

until noon.

"My lord, our horse is afraid that it will not move."

After running all morning, the chasing horses were exhausted.

"Then how can the opponent's horse run so well?"

"..."

The subordinates complained in their hearts, you ask me, who will I ask.

"Horses that interest them are more durable."

In fact.

Many people know the 'reason'. As refugees, they were recruited after the uprising and transformed into city guards, so there is no strict training system.

Both people and horses lack training.

It's not uncommon to fail to catch up with other people's good horses, but this matter can't be said on the surface, because what I said, what if I increase training when I go back?

The less trouble, the better.

I've been lazy for a long time.

I don't want to be so tired, anyway, it's not them who cut off the finger.

"Go back."

After thinking about it again and again, the cavalry captain shook his head.

The horse can't run anymore, and it's chasing a fart.

More importantly, even if they catch up, they will be in other cities and territories. In Nanyu's orthodox era, it is not uncommon for the city guards to hunt across cities.

However.

now.

But it is different from before.

After recruiting security, many followers were named Lords of the City.

These people are not entirely of the same mind, and they don't allow other parties to cross borders without authorization for their own territory. Therefore, it is difficult to even 'cross-city cooperative investigation'.

In many cases, people who are wanted to be arrested in this city are screened in that city, but they only need a little bribe to release them.

Come and go.

All parties are doing this, and there is no cohesion at all.

Even, gradually developed to be happy to see the other party have bad luck.

. . .

It is at this very moment.

Bandits.

No.

It should be said that it was the original bandit village. Seventy people were running around in the front yard, sweating like rain under the scorching sun, all of them were full of bitterness, what is this called!

It was still dark.

They were called up.

Have a meal.

stand in line.

My legs were numb, I thought I could rest, but was asked to run laps again.

Can't run?

"Snapped!"

As soon as the whip came up, the potential of the whole body suddenly exploded. They didn't know what the purpose of doing this was, but when they thought of the corpses buried last night.

No one dared to jump out and resist.

"stop!"

With an order, everyone felt relaxed, and even greater fatigue came from their bodies.

"Line up and go to the cafeteria."

They came to the cafeteria in an orderly manner, lost their fatigue in an instant, and rushed to the dining table.

fruit.

vegetable.

meat.

Not one is missing.

"Snapped!"

As soon as the whip came down, the hands of a person who was about to grab and eat were swollen.

"Have you been told to eat?"

"Next time, I will be fined and not allowed to eat for three days."

immediately.

Everyone shook their bodies, held back their hunger, sat at the table in order, stared at the food on the table, and swallowed hard.

One minute.

…

three minutes.

…

five minutes.

…

Ten minutes later, they were all going crazy.

"Very well, I was still thinking that during this period, someone reached out again and asked me to catch him and punish him by not being allowed to eat for three days, so as to serve as a warning to others."

"I didn't expect that you can bear it."

"OK."

"Let's eat."

Hearing this, everyone shouted in their hearts: the devil.

In fact, it was also the reason why so many people were killed last night, so that they didn't dare to question each other's words. It was really terrifying to be hungry for three days.

Someone asked: Isn't it just three days of starvation, and it will be fine if this meal can't last.

However, how is it possible that the offender will let you eat it?

dream!

There is a high probability that he will take a bite and then be framed, which is too much for the loss.

get permission.

Everyone eats.

A meal after exhaustion made them feel a deep sense of happiness. Looking at it like this, they would have to eat up all the things in the village in a few days.

. . .

hundreds of miles away.

Through the guard's vision, Shu Fu watched all this with a smile on his face.

These people are still a rabble at present, and if they want to be useful, the first step is to learn to enforce orders and prohibit them.

Learn to obey, learn to be obedient, and learn to behave.

Come on.

This should be his first place in Alien that can be called a 'territory'.

As for Qi Hengshan?

Almost mean.

It is not known to outsiders at all. A place that is not known to outsiders is called 'site'. It is a bit far-fetched. It is his secret base.

For now.

The struggle for hegemony in Alien Star will start from the Nanyu Empire, from the 'occupation of the mountain as king'.

The first step is to occupy the mountain.

The second step is to train the rabble a little bit.

The third step is to occupy the town.

The town closest to the bandit village has a total population of only 20,000 people. It was previously taken over by a mountain king with only 200 men.

Up to now, there are only five hundred people.

therefore.

This soft persimmon doesn't need much preparation at all, and it can be squeezed.

Let's control a town first.

The situation here provided him with natural protection.

If it is in the north of Nanyu, if there is no discussion at all, if you dare to occupy a town, the imperial army will come.
