Chapter 146 The "reliance" behind the founding of the People's Republic of China
Brand contacted Mr. Holland not just to chat.
He also wanted to ask Uncle Anthony if he had any way to deal with the bandit knight.
In response to this question, Mr. Holland responded:
“You don’t have to worry about this. Our Sixth Infantry Regiment of the Kaya Empire will not encounter a bandit. The great knight retreated."
Although Mr. Holland said so confidently, Brand still looked hesitant.
But Mr. Holland didn’t mean to elaborate.
He talked about another thing:
"If the other party is really a great knight, you can try to find the support behind him."
Bu Rand asked doubtfully: "You mean the knight's inheritance he was lucky enough to get?"
"No, I am referring to what he relies on to build a country."
Master Holland explained:
"It is not an easy thing to build a country in a chaotic zone, especially His citizens are still bandits."
Seeing Brand's confusion, Mr. Holland asked:
"Think about it, what is the main source of wealth for bandits? ”
Brand responded without thinking: "Robbery."
"Yes."
Nodding, Mr. Holland said again:
" Since he wants to lead the bandits to build a country and create order, robbery must be eliminated, which also means that the bandits' source of income is gone
They need a new source of income to replace it. The original robbery, this is what I call possible reliance!”
Hearing this, Brand understood somewhat.
Mr. Holland fed himself a few chili peppers and further explained:
“This kind of reliance can be a certain technology, a certain resource, or other Something unknown.
In short, it must at least bring more benefits to the thieves than robbery in the short term.
If it does not bring them enough benefits, I will. I don’t think the bandits will be willing to obey the order.”
At the end of the sentence, Brand looked at the empty screen in front of him with a frown.
Mr. Holland smiled again and said:
"Of course, this is just a guess on my part. Bandits face beatings and killings every day, and there are very few bandits who have The vision and thinking of the upper class.
So the greater possibility is that the bandit is just having a whim, or he does not understand the difference between a country and a force. "
Although Huo. Mr. Rand thought it was a small probability event, but Brand felt that the probability was not low:
"According to the information provided by the City Lord of White Rock City, Liuyue City was the boss of this area many years ago. That City Lord should still have some foresight."
Continuing to think along this line of thought, Brand I feel more and more that there is "something wrong" with the Liuyue City City Lord.
Mr. Holland leaned back in his chair and said with a leisurely expression:
"So you think he does have something to rely on that can be called the foundation of the founding of the country?"
< br>Brand nodded and said:
"The Great Knight is strong enough to run rampant in the chaotic area. In addition, Liuyue City is the boss of this area. There is no need for him to be secretive about his strength."
After a slight pause, Brand continued. :
“I think he may be preparing for other countries outside the chaotic zone.”
Hearing this, Mr. Holland nodded and said:
“ Are you saying that he is worried about attracting the attention of neighboring countries after his strength is exposed?"
"That's right!"
Mr. Holland smiled and said:
"Then just follow the train of thought and look for it. If you really find something of great value but you can't figure it out, I will come to help when the time comes.
But the other party is most likely a great knight, so you still have to be careful.”
After chatting with Mr. Holland for a while, The two ended the communication.
As Mr. Holland said, there might be a great knight on the other side, no matter how curious Brand was about the "foundation of a nation" that the Lord of Liuyue City might have. He now has to wait for Uncle Anthony to come over.
At this time, Brand suddenly remembered that Yersin might also need to contact him.
......
In the intricate stone forest, Yersen was leading the soldiers and bandits in a fierce pursuit.
Although the number of bandits is not large, they have set various traps in their lair.
Relying on traps and terrain, they caused a lot of trouble for Yersin and the soldiers.
However, as time went by, due to the huge disparity in strength, no matter how hard the bandits tried, they eventually ended in failure.
Because the battle failed, the bandit leader wanted to escape from the tunnel, but unfortunately, he could not outrun Anderson, a senior knight...
After the war, the two captains Frowning, he reported the situation to Yersen.
Although the battle went smoothly, many soldiers were injured in the bandits' traps.
In addition to the wounded from previous battles, if we don’t take a good rest, we may not be able to continue marching to the next bandit lair.
Hearing such a battle report, Yersin also had a headache.
Most ordinary soldiers are ordinary people. Although they are protected by armor, it is inevitable to be injured in the traps of bandits.
It is foreseeable that the next bandit's lair will not be much better than the situation here.
Thinking of this, Yersen regretted marching along the wild route of the bandit's lair.
Although the gains in these two days are indeed good, the injuries and attrition are also serious.
"Yersen, look at this!"
Just when Yersen was considering whether to give up and change his route to join Brand to attack the Free City.
Anderson's voice came over.
When he followed the sound and looked over, he saw Anderson dragging a prisoner with one hand and walking toward him with a sheathed magic gold dagger in the other.
Yersen raised his eyebrows when he saw the magic gold dagger in Anderson's hand.
After taking the magic gold dagger in his hand and looking at it carefully, he quickly compared it with the magic gold dagger Brand obtained in Core City.
The slight difference is that the scabbard of this dagger is engraved with "Stone Forest Town" instead of "Rock Core City".
Seeing this, Yersin's eyes gradually became serious.
...
In Core City, several captains walked into Anthony's camp with serious expressions and holding two magic gold daggers.
In the past few days, they led their soldiers to conquer the lairs of several bandits around Core City.
But when they returned with the soldiers and exchanged the spoils with their colleagues, they discovered two magic gold daggers that were very similar in shape.
They quickly realized that something might be a little unusual.
So they immediately prepared to report the situation to Anthony.
In the camp, looking at the two magic gold daggers handed over by his men, Anthony frowned slightly.
He quickly asked about the interrogation of the bandit prisoners.
But unfortunately, due to strength issues, these captains did not catch the bandit leader.
Ordinary bandits don’t know this.
