our family is gone

Chapter 180 clear rewards and punishments
Lance knew they needed to vent their fears, and those who abandoned their duties were the best punching bags.

But he can't put the power of trial in their hands, otherwise his authority will be threatened once he starts, and only he is qualified to initiate a trial of a person and be convicted.

Only in this way can he ensure that his authority will not be damaged, and it is also to avoid the expansion of things.

Because these people simply want to vent the fear in their hearts, they have no ability to discern when they are crazy, and it is easy to accidentally injure other innocent guards.

The crazy world must be led by reason to go on.

"Did you escape?" Lance pointed to a guard.

The person he pointed to was stunned for a moment, but quickly shook his head in denial.

"I didn't run away."

"Very well, do you dare to stand up and say it out loud?"

Hearing this, the man looked at the surrounding situation, although he hesitated, he still stood up.

"I didn't run away, I killed two enemies at that time!"

"Tell me, did you see him flinch?" Lance looked back at those people, but no one came forward to identify him.

It seems that after a short period of calm, they all returned to their senses.

"Okay!" Lance suddenly shouted, pointing his finger at the man, "You will be restored as a free citizen, and you will be rewarded with ten copper coins for killing two enemies."

The man couldn't help but froze after hearing this.

"Come here to receive the reward." Lance called the person in front of him, and paid out the money directly in front of everyone.

Regardless of the fact that his previous transactions all started with gold coins, in fact, the copper coins that ordinary people come into contact with the most are copper coins. These ten coins are already a lot for a refugee.

When the real ten copper coins were held in his hands, the man's face was immediately filled with a smile, and the original complaints disappeared.

Only then did Lance look at the guards who had been in a commotion just now, and most of them had calmed down.

There must be someone in the guard team doing practical things, otherwise the camp would not be safe and sound. Just now they were fighting against the enemy, but when they were called here suddenly, there were all kinds of accusations and abuse, and there would be resentment in their hearts.

But now Lance's hand instantly disintegrated the resistance of most of the guards.

They didn't run away, what were they afraid of?
"Don't worry, I will not treat anyone who fights bravely badly, nor will I let go of a coward who abandons responsibility!"

Lance raised his hand and pointed.

"Did you run away?"

The person he pointed at also stood up immediately, "I didn't run away!"

"Okay, reward~"

Lance directly pointed out a dozen people, and only then did he fix his eyes on one of them.

"What about you?"

Seeing this, the man shouted excitedly: "I killed ten of them!"

"You lost your gun, why did you kill your mother?" Lance didn't even bother to talk nonsense, he waved his hand, "Take him down."

Lance didn't choose randomly. He just encouraged the people to put pressure on him. He saw the performance of those people. The first batch of people selected were all stress-tested and most confident.

He didn't need to do it himself, the guards who took the money just now took the man down and brought him to him.

"Originally, the most dereliction of duty was to drive out of the camp. Now you lie about the military situation, and I can't save you." Lance leaned forward slightly, looked at this guy, and then waved his hand in disappointment, "Drag out and behead, family members Expelled from camp, never hired."

"My lord! I was wrong, don't!"

At this time, begging for mercy has no effect. What Lance needs is a deterrent effect, he will die no matter what.

If possible, Lance even wanted to kill his whole family to avoid future troubles.

But doing so tarnishes his image. Blind violence and power will only arouse fear and bring resistance.

The man was beheaded and his family was exiled. Even though he cried and begged, Lance would not pay attention to them, and neither would anyone else. Even those people cursed, accused, and actively drove them away, and finally had to leave the camp .

Their treatment was in sharp contrast to the family members of the dead and injured just now. Everyone knew that everything they had came from the lord, and they unconsciously attached themselves to that man.

Tiffany stood and watched Lance, who was still rewarding and punishing the villains, and followed all the way, watching a group of panicked refugees being quickly condensed under the man's means.

If it's me, I'm afraid I can't do anything, not even to identify those timid retreaters.

Now she understood why the business group that she couldn't manage well was controlled by him in less than a day.

"coward!"

"Go away!"

"..."

Another dereliction of duty was kicked out of the camp with his wife and children~
Under Lance's deliberate guidance, the public's anger was vented, and at the same time, the people who were forcibly brought together before became a whole after this incident, and the originally slack people's hearts gradually stabilized.

Everyone is despising those cowards who escaped from the battle, and watching them leave in a state of deprivation and embarrassment feels an inexplicable joy.

But Boudica was the only one who seemed a little abnormal. She lost all the excitement she had just now. She even dared to rush forward in the face of hundreds of refugees, and she actually felt depressed when she saw the guys who were kicked out of the camp.

Lance didn't have time to notice her and set his sights on the last guard.

"You said you killed ten enemies~"

"Yes, my lord." The man was neither humble nor overbearing, and stood up without fear of other people's eyes.

Lance looked at this man. He was about 30 years old, with a well-proportioned figure and a straight face. He was holding a long sword instead of a long gun.

Judging by the blood stains on his body, he knew that what he said was true.

This person, Lance, still has an impression. He said that his ancestors were once knights. Although they have fallen, there is still something left.

As for the reason for defecting, he killed a few gangsters while protecting his wife and children, and offended those gangs, so he had to seek asylum.

"Very good! Your family has regained their status as free citizens, and you are promoted to captain of the guard, come here to receive the reward."

Lance has always been eclectic in employing people. If you are capable, you will be promoted, if you are not capable, you will be dismissed.

And when the heavy bag of copper coins was placed in his hand, the man's upright face couldn't help but fluctuate.

"Thank you sir!"

Seeing such good treatment, those onlookers regretted that they did not join the guards, and those who joined regretted not killing more.

Lance could feel their reactions, and that was what he wanted.

Shouted to those people: "Everyone is ready, let's go tomorrow."

The crowd cheered in response. If they were forced to go to an unknown place because of their previous life, their hearts must be full of fear and anxiety.

But now they are full of expectations, and their hope is to join the lord's territory.

The camp started to operate again, even bursting out with more vitality than before.

If there is another invasion, I am afraid that everyone will want to move forward bravely and make a future for themselves and their families. Even if they die, they will have no worries.

Lance arranged for people to collect the corpses, and then transported the corpses of the refugees away for sacrifice. There were at least a hundred people who died here.

But he didn't feel much, because what happened just now revealed a serious problem in the territory.

Hamlet has no conventional medical methods, and his abilities are not revealed in many ways.

Leaving aside the issue of spiritual consumption, if he really dared to show his ability at will, people from the church would come to his door the next day.

Before the territory was not stable, he was barefoot and was not afraid of wearing shoes. At worst, he turned around and ran away, throwing the big trouble of the ancestor to them.

But now that he has developed, he has to be more careful, at least not to show up before he has enough ability.

It is not impossible to obtain sufficient medical resources in a short period of time without relying on the church.

Physicians Association, a neutral organization of medical practitioners.

If he is really an ordinary neutral organization, Lance still thinks that he can try to cooperate, but unfortunately, the Association of Chinese Medicine Physicians in Tamarakou is still one of the extraordinary forces, and at the same time has an armed force called "Hospital Knights".

Professions such as doctors are more inclined to herbalism, pharmacy and alchemy, and people who are proficient in these are called pharmacists, alchemists and the like in this world, which is why the Medical Association is actually a super organization. reason.

Contacting these big forces before one's own strength is self-defeating, and after this road is cut off, it is only left to find ways to cultivate.

But before that, some things need to be settled~
"Boudica."

"what?"

Lance wanted to ask her to join him, but she didn't look right.

"It's okay, you worked hard just now, stay in the camp and rest."

"Oh~"

This guy is like a husky who has nowhere to vent his energy. It is too difficult to keep her in the camp. Boudica would definitely follow her as usual, but her reaction this time is to agree directly, which seems very abnormal.

Lance noticed her abnormality, but said nothing, just left the camp alone.

He has visited the refugee camp a few times these days, and he is not unfamiliar with the environment here. He knows which gang it is from the style of the corpses of those gangsters, so he directly looks for the gang's station in the refugee camp.

In fact, some shantytowns on the edge of the outer city were forcibly occupied and built around them, which can be regarded as a shelter from the wind and rain.

It’s just that as soon as I got close to the gang station, I could hear the miserable wailing. When Lance walked into the place, no one was in charge. When he went in, he could see some injured people lying outside the tent. , or die.

There was no pity in Lance's eyes, only greed.

What a gift~
Lance glanced at the surrounding environment to make sure that no one would draw the short sword out of his hand to completely remove the pain for them.

"Who are you? What are you doing?"

Someone finally found Lance, but he was doomed to futility.

"You are their boss, right~"

Lance approached the dagger while playing with it, but his relaxed and casual appearance made the man feel great pressure.

"Come here! Where are you? Where are you going? Don't come here!"

After a while, Lance walked out of the station. Although he got the answer, it didn't satisfy him.

These guys were only instructed by their masters, and at the same time, Lance discovered from his mouth that someone had arranged for them to watch the camp.

Things got interesting~
…………

"My lord!" Disma hurried over, apparently also hearing that the camp had been attacked.

"It's not a big problem, and it won't affect the plan. How about what I asked you to do?"

"After following for so many days, it is basically confirmed." Desman's sharp eyes swept around and said something mysteriously.

Lance let him move freely these days, of course, he couldn't really let him go to Lantern Street to play, but arranged a special task for him.

Some unseen tasks.

As for the target, of course it is the local grain merchants who are connected with the merchant group.

Lance is not a good-tempered person. Those guys dare to make an idea of ​​the business group today. Who knows what they want to do in the future?
If you don't give them a little color, do you really think he is easy to bully?

Of course, the main reason is to make money. Although there are still a lot in hand, no one can think too much of this kind of thing, especially the cost of building an army is too high.

"Do it tonight?" Disma asked for instructions.

"Someone is eyeing us. Before that, there is a small thing that needs to go." Lance said the refugee gang thing again.

"I see that there are fights every day at the place where the shantytowns and refugee camps meet. Why do these refugees still get on with the gangsters in the city?" Disma couldn't help complaining when he heard it.

"What you see are different gangs fighting each other. If these refugees don't go to the local gangs, where can they sell their goods?"

"Anyway, these guys won't survive tonight." Disma didn't care, he just knew that he was going to kill~
"We are looking for justice for those ordinary people~" Lance grinned, his eyes were indescribably cruel.

…………

"Brother! Not good."

"What's your ghost name? If you have something to say, if you weren't my younger brother, I would have slapped you long ago."

Under the dim candlelight, there was a man with a stern face, a gang leader who survived the brutal competition in the outer city, no matter how young he was, he was not a simple person.

"I went to see it just now, and there is no living person inside. It seems that things have been looted. Those guys probably knew that they had offended someone and ran away!"

"Cut! Run away and run away."

"But the things explained above..."

The little brother reminded him, but he didn't say the whole thing, but it also made the man frown, and he couldn't help scolding.

"Those refugees are really trash, and they can't do this well."

I am arrogant in front of my younger brother, but I can only bow my head and laugh with those big bosses, because without their support, I may be replaced by a new gang in the next second.

There have been a lot of smart people in this outer city, but they all died in the end.

"Brother, what are you afraid of? It's just a small business group gathering a group of refugees. What can they do?"

"Before our people died too cleanly, it is always right to be careful."

The man was lost in thought. He was not too surprised by the failure of those refugees. This was just an attempt. He didn't expect the guards in the camp to be so tenacious, let alone the crazy barbarian. Fortunately, he didn't really kill his own people Pull it over, or you will suffer heavy losses, and you will be swallowed up by the gang next door without speaking from above.

Seeing the older brother who was still hesitating, the younger brother also became impatient, thinking that the older brother was getting old and didn't even dare to make a move, so he went.

"How about I take someone in tonight and burn their camp down?"

The younger brother immediately asked for action, seeing that his fearless appearance did not pay attention to the camp guards at all. Growing up in this environment, no one was afraid of death, and fighting was their only way out.

"what!"

An exclamation outside the door broke the silence of the room.
