In fact, the city is the center of Warchief Smoke's administration of the North.

The great chief brought together the most skilled scholars and craftsmen in Iberia here, and the most advanced metals and the most exquisite siege and defense equipment in every southern wasteland could be manufactured here.And many tribes that lack this ability also need to come here to exchange or receive, in order to meet the needs of the tribe for advanced weapons and equipment.

And this city is also the largest fortress city to the east of the Southern Wilderness. In their eyes, only the Kingdom of Stars and the Holy Court in the east are the real enemies.To deal with the Iberian rebellion and the nobles of Eldar, an iron rod, a bow, and a few horses are enough.

Therefore, it is not afraid of anyone to attack here, and it is also the only way for the east to march to the west.So there are a lot of reserves and technical talents here.

The great chief also believes that concentrating the main production factors here can also prevent the various tribes from conquering each other and allow them to be connected more closely through this place.

But in fact, neither of these two ideas has been perfectly realized.

Because the great chief's idea is a bit whimsical, it's like collecting the world's weapons and forging the twelve golden men, and the world will be peaceful.

In fact, the various tribes have been in so many years.It has accumulated its own alchemy foundation and technical talents through trade, plunder and other means.And these guys who are at odds all day long, because they want to win more of their own share in Halinska, often stage various competitions in this city.

After Awali came to power, this situation improved a lot, but after Awali fell ill, his political energy seemed to be not as strong as before.Coupled with the entanglement between the Fire King and the Frost King in the past two years, the friction between the various tribes has become more and more intense.

Hearing this, George and Salman glanced at each other, and they couldn't help laughing in a heart-to-heart connection.

It seems that this Awali has figured it out, if the various tribes don't make trouble, it will be very difficult for him to survive...

...

0548 The Eyeless Thing!

The wide city gate of Halinska can almost accommodate five carriages in parallel, but the crowds and carriages entering and leaving the city make it a bit crowded.

In front of the city gate, there is a special area for interrogation and inspection. Individuals and small teams can enter the city directly by queuing up here. However, large caravans need to enter the city safely. They must complete the registration after a comprehensive inspection. let go.

When George and the others came over, a large area was already occupied by chariots and horses on the front side of the city gate.Every team gathered into a pile, noisy and noisy.Centuries are very common here.It seems that this is an area specially for caravans to stop and check.

Most of the soldiers responsible for inspection and registration are Iberians. They inspect and check the items in these teams carefully.What kind of goods and people are there in the team, including where the team came from and where they have passed through, all need to have specific books.

Even if people from the eight major tribes come here, if they bring a large number of vehicles, they have to go through the process according to the process.However, the leaders generally wouldn't wait here, and they could get in without queuing up by showing their identities.

After arriving here, the Canglan knights took people to meet the person in charge of the city gate. It seems that the Canglan family has a lot of face here. After a while, a team of inspectors came to check and register.

Some caravans around seemed a little dissatisfied with this kind of behavior, but after looking at the falcon-like bodyguards in the team, they finally did nothing and could only turn their dissatisfaction into complaints. .

During the inspection, George, Salman and others strolled around the vehicle and observed the city wall by the way.

On the city wall not far away, the strong and sturdy Southern Wilderness soldiers stood on the city wall. They held bows and arrows, and looked at the crowd below like torches.Occasionally, a few teams of cavalry passed by near the inspection area. They were well-armored and moved like wind and thunder, rolling up clouds of dust and smoke as they passed by.

However, amidst this kind of deterrence, there were still fights and disturbances near the city gate.But it seems that this situation is extremely common, and everyone around is watching the excitement with their shoulders crossed.And some fights can't tell whether they are wrestling contests or real conflicts.But without exception, those who fought and clashed were all from the Southern Wilderness.

The soldiers on the city wall turned a blind eye to this, and it seemed that as long as these people did not approach the restricted area in front of the city gate, they would not interfere.

Only when these battles tended to intensify, the passing cavalry would rush over and whip them with whips.Occasionally, the cavalry would put a horse lock on the horse and drag it behind the horse without saying a word.

The people being dragged couldn't stand at all, and the clothes on their bodies would soon be torn to pieces.However, these Nanhuang people who were punished shouted loudly while being dragged, without any intention of begging for mercy or repenting

Seeing this scene, George's expression became strange.Originally, when he saw the soldiers on the city wall, he thought that there was strict discipline here, so the city must also be extremely orderly.But it's a pity that the troublemakers are all hob meat, and it is difficult to be truly restrained.

George noticed that those cavalrymen looked very brutal, but in fact, when they were pumping and dragging people, they were all picking people up.It's just that he rode his horse over to disperse the group of guys who were fighting.And after the group of people were dispersed, the guys in the lead yelled at the cavalrymen, and a fat man picked up a stone and threw it viciously at the cavalrymen who were going away .

Seeing the officer of the cavalry, his head beaten with stones on his back, George touched his chin and almost laughed.

I have never seen such an arrogant person.

The leaders of these groups wore clothes similar to Moss's favorite scarlet silk suit, except that there were fewer patterns and lighter colors.The one-horned fur on the head is also very similar, but there are not so many totems drawn, and the horn on the Moss skin hat has long been replaced by the big devil's one from the ogre's one-horned one.

George looked at the flags erected by the caravan of these people, and found that they all seemed to be relatively well-known large tribes in the Southern Wilderness.I don't know what caused the fight.

It seems that the cavalry can distinguish at a glance which are the big tribal nobles who cannot be messed with, but they are the main troublemakers

Especially the fat man who threw things, he seemed to be very capable of fighting.Judging from his attire, he is very different from the decoration on Moss, but there are many patterns.It seems to be a great nobleman of the same class.And after the people around were beaten by him, very few people dared to fight back, no matter what their status was, they only felt like beating the fat man's followers.Even those cavalrymen whose heads had been knocked down ran away without looking back after hearing the fat man's yelling.

"Spring and summer are the main hunting seasons. In order to clean up the wolves that harass the herdsmen and the wild boars that harm the fields, all tribes will move." Salman said: "At this time, there are the most conflicts. Although the chiefs are divided areas of various tribes, but few actually observe it."

"Yeah." Moss interjected while looking at the guys inspecting the goods: "Always stay in one place, how can you graze. And that old bastard Smoke is very partial, and the best pastures are allotted Who will obey those wastes who are given to my relatives to eat and wait to die?!"

At this time, George heard a scolding in the team.After looking over the past with Moss and others, he found that the hands and feet of these soldiers who were in charge of inspection seemed to be a little dirty.

The Canglan knights who followed these soldiers to check turned a blind eye to this, but William and others who walked past saw this scene.Under William's expression, an arbitration knight beside him widened his eyes and whipped him with a few whips.

The leather armor on those soldiers was directly smashed by this whip, and their backs were ripped apart.The pain caused them to fall to the ground, grinning and rolling around.

The captain at the head, who was laughing and talking with the Canglan Knight, froze in place when he saw this scene.When he opened his mouth, he yelled and cursed, and drew out his waist knife blushing.But after looking up and seeing William and the others who were looking at him and sneering, the captain was taken aback for a moment, and then couldn't help blinking fiercely.

The leader was wearing the robes of priest knight battle armor, and the whip was wearing the black armor of the Temple Judgment. The holy court emblem on the chest shone brightly in the sun, and the captain's head buzzed, and his face turned pale.

"Things that don't have long eyes, things in the holy court are you moving casually?!"

After William finished speaking, the arbitration knight whipped him a few more times, and the soldier with dirty hands and feet rolled all over the ground.

0549 Extra Arrogant

The captain looked at the armor and robes of the gods on William and the others, then at the Canglan family emblem on the convoy, and the people from the southern desert in the convoy, and couldn't help but blinked fiercely, as if nothing happened. Figured out the three gangs would get together.

"These goods are all used to exchange the supplies needed for the frontline battle. I want your head if there is one less!" After finishing speaking, William put on his leather gloves, without looking at the soldiers who were standing still, and led the knight They went straight away.

Indeed, this group of them came to Halinska to ask for the needs of the front line.A box of one hundred silver foxes is a word of a rune!A bag of spices is a sunstone!

This is the right of the Holy Court as the victor, and it is also the material that Nanhuang must provide to the front line as the defeated.Under this agreement, Nan Huang had to affirm the Seven Gods in order to have the right to live and graze in the area divided by the Holy Court in Iberia.Although many things about the land in these articles are useless, according to the regulations, the area where the people of the Southern Wilderness are actually allowed to move is only a small area.

Although, in fact, every time they come to exchange, the middleman will take out more materials, so that the price difference between them can be evened out.But in the agreement, the talisman and sun stone worth thousands of silver foxes are worth such a small amount of money.

Usually, the middleman who collects materials is Cang Lan.The priests and knights who are in charge of supervising this matter are generally arranged by the Duke of Canglan to enjoy themselves in the jug. There's a lot going on here.Anyway, I got what I should get, so why come here again to destroy other people's interests, just to make fun of myself.

As for Canglan, although he had to pay for it out of his own pocket to make the adults on both sides of the South Wilderness and the Holy Court happy, the things they received were many times lower than the market price.Moreover, this kind of strategic materials are often priced but not marketed. You only need to pay the minimum amount every time, and the extra is all yours!

So the regulations were never strictly enforced.

But this time, the good CEO of the Seven Gods has to settle the account carefully.

Under the corrupt officials and even the behavior of the local cathedral and Cang Lan, the victor is already like the defeated, and the people of the southern desert have long forgotten how big the difference between the Holy Court's Temple Knights and the cathedral's Knights is. difference.

"Moss, put up the flag of our mission, we won't wait here anymore." George glanced not far away, there was a group of guys who just made trouble over there, and they had already jumped in line. Obviously, the people who maintained order didn't want to Let these old men make trouble again: "It's been so long that I didn't know who came to greet me, I really don't understand at all."

When the three banners of Holy Court, Shuangfang, and Canglan were raised in the wind, the knights pushed aside the Southern Wilderness caravans of various tribes blocking the way, and walked directly to the city gate.And the knights even mounted their horses, like Halinska's knights, raised their whips, and moved forward amidst shouts and curses.Many Southern Wilderness nobles who were unable to dodge in time were whipped directly, and some city soldiers responsible for maintaining order were even whipped in the face.

That arrogant arrogance was far stronger than any tribe present.

...

When the flags of the Holy Court and Frostfang were planted, some people who were crowded around the convoy immediately retreated a long distance.Afterwards, the Knights of Frostfang and Knights of Dawn all mounted their horses, raised their whips while shouting and cursing, and left in the dust all the way.Soon the former convenience was opened a road.

Unlike Halinska's knights, these knights don't care who the person in front is, they just hit the whip when they get in the way.Some Southern Wilderness nobles were unable to dodge in time, and even received a whip on their faces.In the midst of that anger, picking up things was about to settle the score, but after seeing clearly who the person who was yelling and scolding was, Moss' arrogance immediately disappeared in half in the bull's eyes that glared at him, and he backed away covering his face. After driving a few steps, after seeing the flag in Moss's hand, he couldn't help but widen his eyes. He never thought that this villain, who is usually domineering, would hold the banner of the Holy Court.
