iron throne of ice and fire

Chapter 10 The Old Land Will Be Reclaimed
Whoosh whoosh!
歘歘歘 (chua)!
The 120 members of the Thorn Corps fired a salvo, and the sound of the arrows was heard endlessly.

The continuous volleys covered the sky and the sun like dark clouds, densely packed.

puff!
puff!puff!
puff!puff!puff!
The savages who were rushing forward kept being shot through and then fell down, wailing everywhere.

The leaders of the savages had never seen the rain of arrows covering a long distance, so they roared louder in fear, constantly urging the savages to speed up their progress.

Mason Knight stared at the place more than 100 meters in front of the formation, and was secretly shocked by the death zone caused by the volley of the Thorn Corps.

When the continuous shooting reached 20 arrows, Green obviously felt that the speed of the Thorn Corps' archery slowed down.

More than 200 savages fell in the continuous volley, and the savages appeared in confusion. A small number of savages fled backwards regardless of the leader's roar.

When the volley reached 25 arrows, after dozens of people fell down, the wildlings retreated in a large area, and Green decisively ordered to stop shooting arrows.

The 200 Kleber soldiers (main weapons shields, long swords, and spears) commanded by Mason Knight began to advance towards the scattered wildlings.

The Kleber soldiers strode forward amidst neat slogans, with momentum like a rainbow.

The average age of Kreber's soldiers is more than ten years, and each of them is a veteran of many battles.

Kleiber's clan soldiers are the elite soldiers who have survived years of fighting against mountain savages starting from Green's mother. They are the heritage of Kleiber's family.

As the Kleiber soldiers strode forward in neat slogans, the savages who had already been frightened became even more frightened and confused.

Occasionally, some leaders gathered some people to attack the phalanx of the Kleber soldiers, but they were instantly overwhelmed by the Kleber soldiers.

From Green's point of view, these savages waiting to be captured or surrendered are his own reserve citizens, and judging from today's performance, they are indeed worthy of the title of savages.

Wanting to manage these savages in the future, the only way Green can think of is strict laws.

Green sighed secretly that he might even have to be careful to put that foot first when going out.

The game of power is about to begin, and the military strength in hand is the real trump card. In order to achieve the effect in a short period of time, Kleiber's territory can only be turned into a large military camp that includes all the citizens.

Green confirmed the territory development path that suits him, and no longer hesitated.

........................

The Thorn Corps has only been established for a few days, and it can complete 25 volleys. It can be said that today's performance is very amazing. Emparo also proved his ability to lead troops.

The Thorn Corps is being repaired, some spearwomen directly... and also triggered a chain reaction, Green doesn't know how to describe it, maybe it's too hot, shirtless?
In the white flower, Green intuitively felt the physical characteristics of the spear wives in Kleiber's territory... strong, big.

Following Green's gaze, Emparo, who was standing beside Green with a serious face, also noticed the situation. He remembered something, and his cheeks were dark red.

Some of the spearwomen who noticed Green's gaze looked back carelessly and stood up boldly.

If it was in a previous life, maybe Green would have whistled and given a thumbs up.

The lord needs to pay attention to the image. This is the memory of Green's original mother's education. At this time, Green also agrees, and giving a thumbs up in Westeros does not mean appreciation.

Unknown actions are easy to be misunderstood, and men in Kleber's territory must learn to protect themselves when they go out!
Green just showed a smile, and his eyes naturally moved elsewhere.

The reason why soldiers need to pay attention to the image problem is not clear to them, and it is not appropriate to talk about it on the current occasion.

Green thought about adding the image of soldiers to the training content of soldiers in the future, and he got used to it after a long time.

The Thorn Corps repaired for a while, and under Green's order, they followed the clan soldiers to join in chasing the retreating savages.

........................

Knight Peer's survey corps had taken down a tribe, and the first battle was very successful. Under the sudden attack, only a few people were slightly injured, and no one was killed.

The Survey Corps took nearly 300 prisoners from the first tribe that fell.

The mountain savages lived by hunting and picking wild fruits, and the trophies were mainly fur and dried meat. The investigation team only found a small bag of golden dragons in the tribal leader's house, and the number was about 10 to less than 20.

The booty was directly carried by the captives, and the Knight of Pell ordered the tribe's houses to be burned down.

They also killed some captives on the spot who rebelled because the tribe was burned, and 20 people were separated from the survey corps to send these captives to the territory first.

Knight Pell said to the team leader escorting the captives: "When the captives arrive near the territory, someone will receive them. If they are hungry, they can chew the dried meat. They can't stop. After handing over the captives, come directly to meet me. Be careful on the way. I will wait for you in the second tribe."

"If there is a slight change in the prisoner on the road, kill him directly, don't hesitate."

Knight Pell finished his instructions, patted the captain on the shoulder, and finally said: "Go."

The Pell Knights continued until dark and finally settled the three big tribes.

The survey corps directly repaired in the third tribe, and returned to the territory at dawn the next day with the captives and spoils of war.

On the way back to the territory, the survey corps encountered several scattered savages and captured dozens more.

The Survey Corps fought for the first time and killed 23 people.

........................

After two days of simple repairs, the soldiers of the Kleiber family, in groups of 30 to 50 people, began to attack the remaining small tribes in a planned way.

All the captives were escorted to Kleber's territory, and all the houses of the savage tribe were burned down.

Knight Mason personally escorted the last batch of captives and returned to Whispering City, just in time to see Butler Herschel standing in front of the warehouse door with a big belly and a smile on his face.

Mason Knight was also in a good mood, jokingly said: "Old man, you seem to be in a good mood."

Butler Herschel still smiled and replied: "Good day, Sir Mason, there is almost no room for furs in the warehouse. It has not been so rich for a long time."

Mason Knight said with emotion: "Yes, my lord seems to be born for war. The savages have not yet approached us. The volley of the Thorn Corps directly defeated the savages. It is the first time that we have so few casualties."

"Herschel, I have no doubts about the lord's decision to recover Kleber's old land, and I am full of confidence."

"Yes, sir, I am also full of confidence. The Kleber family will eventually take back the old land!"

"Sir, let's go in and prepare. Surana and I have been preparing for the victory banquet tonight. It's very, very rich, and we can have a good drink at night."

........................

Whispering City, in the lord's study.

Green, Bachelor Al, and Kalea have almost counted the gains of this war.

There were more than 2500 prisoners in total, including nearly 700 old people and children.

Of the remaining 1800 people, women accounted for 1200 people, and there are more real women than men.

In order to prevent the captives from connecting with each other, first of all these captives must be dispersed, and everyone must be surrounded by people from strange tribes.

In order to absorb the population as smoothly as possible, this requires careful arrangements, there is no rush, everything is for stability.

After breaking up, they will be dispersed in batches to various parts of the territory to arrange labor.

At the beginning, all corps were required to cooperate with the sheriff to monitor and deter them.

Green leaned back in the chair a little tiredly.

Exhaustion is indeed exhaustion, but Green is in a very happy mood. With captives instead of labor, Kleber's territory can release most of his light and strong strength.

Kleber's territory can start the second recruiting immediately, and the source of Green's happiness for the time being is explosive soldiers.

Bombers make me happy!
