Chapter 26 Riots and Suppression

The total number of people is 268. Some of them should have died on the way, otherwise there should be 300 people.

More than 200 strong men without any ties can form two hundred-man teams.

Under normal circumstances, Derek would never support so many soldiers. It is too expensive.

However, the war is coming, and all investments now will get excess returns.

Therefore, Derek sat in the deep mountain base again and started training.

This time, the training was more intense and stricter.

Fortunately, there were sufficient supplies, otherwise this intensity of training would make people tired.

He consciously began to train his knights and attendants and teach them some basic military knowledge.

Various formations, orders, and tactics.

Even how to grasp the military spirit, inspire morale, and how to deal with certain situations.

Derek would regularly simulate some battles, put both sides in different roles, and deduce the game against each other.

For attendants like Simon, although nominally holding the title of knight attendant, their professions have changed on the panel.

Simon

Profession: Knight Level 9 (85/100)

Experience pool: 0/100

While some knight attendants, that is, some standards are not met, their force and basic military knowledge are absolutely qualified.

With a group of capable subordinates, Derek can be more focused and remotely control the production and training of several places.

He even gradually ran back and forth, taking several attendants with him, constantly changing places.

This is also a kind of exercise for knight attendants.

On this day, he left the deep mountain base again in full view of the public.

This time, he left Simon here to preside over the situation.

Before leaving, Derek quietly ordered.

"Pay attention, I see that some of these slaves are still unconvinced, relax supervision appropriately and give them a chance."

Simon actually noticed that there were thorns among the slave soldiers, but he didn't think that the other party would dare to take risks.

"These idiots shouldn't dare to do anything, right? They should have seen our strength, and the treatment is not bad, and there will be opportunities for freedom in the future."

Simon didn't believe it. He felt that the treatment at the base was already very good, taking care of all aspects.

This is a good opportunity. Derek knows that people have to make mistakes to grow.

"Remember, prepare for the worst in everything. These guys are not even satisfied with such superior treatment. Doesn't it mean that they may cause trouble?

Moreover, power may make some people confused. You can't substitute normal people's thinking for everyone.

Before thinking about victory, think about defeat first. Be prepared and think about it carefully."

Derek left after he finished speaking, leaving Simon with a thoughtful look.

Simon took Derek's reminder very seriously, but it was indeed a little hard to believe.

However, he secretly made preparations. Sure enough, seeing that the defense force of the base was weakened, some people had thoughts.

"We want to go home. What's the difference between these people and the slave-hunting team? They treat us as slaves."

Some people began to spread rumors among the slaves, trying to win over some helpers.

After a period of getting along, those people were dissatisfied and those who were wavering, and these people knew each other.

Under targeted persuasion, many people were moved.

"Their power is very terrifying. Have you forgotten the fate of the slave-catching team?"

"Humph, but I have trained a few more days than us, and I am not bad now."

After a period of training, the progress is not as good as the new recruits with the panel blessing, but the self-confidence is greatly inflated.

In fact, the widening gap is also the reason why some people have different thoughts.

Because no matter how you look at it, those who drag their feet will become abandoned scum.

If you don't fight, are you waiting to be cannon fodder?

After two days of connection, they finally agreed on a time.

As long as there is a riot, can others stay out of it?

If one person riots, everyone will be suspected. They believe that many people will wake up and join the riot.

As for after the riot, what's the point of thinking so much? At worst, run home.

And Simon soon got the news that these people still underestimated people's hearts.

Derrick's treatment is not very bad, and the force is sufficient. Not everyone wants to die with him.

Using these fools as an opportunity to advance is easier than rioting.

After Simon heard the news from the informer, he was completely confused.

The adults guessed it right again.

After this time, he remembered the sentence completely.

Then... Simon was also angry and made up his mind.

"If it weren't for the adults' reminder, I might have suffered this time."

He appeased the informer and promised a position as a centurion.

Those who actively approached must be rewarded.

Maybe the people below don't like the informer, but the superiors may not.

When it was midnight, a group of agreed slave soldiers sneaked out of the barracks, ready to steal weapons and then riot.

But not long after they walked out of the door, torches lit up one after another.

Then they saw a group of fully armed soldiers surrounding them.

"Kill!"

Simon gave the order coldly, without giving them any chance at all.

He even woke everyone up and told them the consequences of betrayal.

Derek, who had returned to the manor, noticed the changes on the panel, and suddenly there were several new names.

"It seems something happened."

Then he forgot about it.

Just a few minor things.

One of the two estates transferred by the family became a large military camp.

One became a blacksmith shop.

In addition to the original population, some craftsmen and officers' families were also settled here.

For example, little Tru's father also became a part of the manor.

I can feel at ease.

It can calm the hearts of the people below, and also calm Derek's heart.

The panel is not omnipotent. If something unexpected happens, people's hearts change, and they may disappear from the panel at any time.

Even if he can react in time, it is a loss.

But now, the probability of an accident is reduced by half.

At the same time, the panel turned to the third page.

The first page is the personal panel.

The second page is the army.

The third page becomes the manor, or civil affairs.

The effect is the same, just a classification method.

Derek studied it and found that farmers are also among them, which means a more solid foundation.

With the same land, my family's output is 30% to 50% more, which is not a small amount when accumulated.

What he pays more attention to now is the army and the armament.

It happened that the entire northern province was preparing for war, so the constraints in this regard were much looser.

Otherwise, the Ferreira family's large-scale military training would have attracted attention long ago.

Maybe the Kingdom's army will come to visit.

After all, although the nobles have the right to form an army, the kingdom is not a pushover. It's okay for you to form an army within a reasonable range, but what do you want to do by suddenly engaging in war?

Derek even took the opportunity to train blacksmiths on a large scale. They only need to be level four or five to forge simple weapons and help the master craftsman.
