Chapter 80 Post-war
William was in the earthen hut, listening to the summary of the battle situation of Old John.
It was the first bloody battle in the small village of Nisai since the beginning of winter. Although William and the others repelled the attack of thousands of lizardmen, they also paid a heavy price.
Lord Baron, after counting, there were 547 lizardmen who died on the spot in this battle, and 122 lizardmen who were still alive but lost the ability to fight. We will follow your orders and kill them one by one! the old man John said in a heavy tone.
William nodded solemnly, expressing his understanding, In other words, we killed a total of 669 lizardmen!
Yes, Lord Baron! Old John nodded.
There are a total of 973 lizardmen in this batch.
In other words, William and the others killed more than two-thirds of the lizardmen.
No matter how you look at it, this is an impressive achievement.
As for the complete annihilation, William never considered it!
It's too difficult!
It's just that so many lizardmen have escaped, and I don't know what will happen in the future?
William had a headache, but he still remembered the scenes of lizardmen all over the mountains and plains that appeared in the magic mirror.
never mind! there is always a solution to a problem! Nothing to worry about! William comforted himself in his heart.
At this time, Old John suddenly asked, My lord, what are you going to do with so many lizardmen's corpses?
How to deal with it? William was taken aback, then returned to normal and asked, How do you think it should be dealt with?
My lord, when other lords encounter similar situations, they dig a hole and bury them together. The weeds on this land will grow lush in the coming year! Usually, the corpses are piled up and burned. work! Old John introduced the method to William.
Buried? Burned? William frowned, weighed it in his mind, and was about to ask Old John to burn the body. Suddenly, William thought of a man in his previous life, a man at the top of the food chain—Grandpa Bei!
William still remembered that when Lord Pei crossed the swamp, he showed the ability to eat lizards or crocodiles.
William thought to himself, but actually ignored the fact that the lizardman stood on two feet. The lizardman was more like a beast than a human.
Human beings can become the spirit of all things. In addition to the development of the brain, another important ability is the ability to change all kinds of wild animals from being eaten to being common, then being eaten to being rare, and finally becoming protected animals.
William thought to himself, since wild animals can eat them, so can lizard people, as long as they are not poisonous!
It just so happens that these meats can meet the material needs of the villagers for eating meat.
Thinking of this, William changed his tune, Old John, we don't burn or bury it!
Lord Baron, then we have to... Old John was puzzled.
William said directly, Old John, go find the hunters in the village and recruit a group of people, be it villagers or wild slaves, and set up a meat factory!
The meat factory? Old John was even more confused. What is this?
William didn't hold back, and explained directly, Yes, the meat factory! It is mainly responsible for the dissection and decomposition of meat!
Meat dissection and decomposition? My lord baron, do we have so many prey?
Aren't these lizard people a natural source of meat? After you set up a meat factory, the first thing to do is to clean up these lizard people, and then cut out their meat, and separate their internal organs and blood! Yes Now, try not to damage their scales! Then give it to Bud, and see if he can help our guards get a set of strong body armor.
William said imaginatively.
... Old John was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and he came back to his senses after a while, and said, Yes, Lord Baron!
With his victory now, William's popularity among the villagers and wildling slaves in the small village of Nisai was unprecedented and unprecedented.
William's prestige is growing!
Even old John,
I didn't dare to be like before, when I saw something unpleasant, I couldn't help admonishing it.
William nodded in satisfaction with Old John's attitude.
He thought about it, and then asked Old John, Old John, how about our casualties?
When it comes to this, Old John's tone is particularly heavy.
He said in a low tone, Lord Baron, five of the six captains of the guards suffered injuries of varying severity.
Of the sixty guards, thirty-two died on the spot or later, and nine were seriously injured and disabled.
Three hundred servants, the worst weapons and equipment, the least training, a total of one hundred and eighty-three died, nineteen were not dead but disabled!
William smiled wryly after hearing this. This time he won, but it was definitely a tragic victory!
He thought for a while, and then said to Old John, Old John, I said, I will share the glory with them, whether they are slaves or villagers!
Old John nodded approvingly.
William then continued to speak his mind.
The living wild slaves, including those who are disabled and not dead, will have their status as slaves abolished. They will immediately obtain the status of free people in Nisai Village. From then on, they will receive corresponding remuneration for their work, the same remuneration as other villagers! In addition, after spring comes , I will give them a piece of land for each of them to cultivate!
If he could defeat the Lizardman, then the entire Dark Forest would be in his pocket. After opening up wasteland, there would be a lot of land, so there was nothing to worry about.
If you can't make it through, then don't say anything, just let what William said as a fart.
Hearing that William wanted to divide the fields of wild people and slaves, Old John wanted to say something, but when he thought of the scene of corpses strewn all over the field, he retracted what he wanted to say.
William continued, As for the dead servants, they will not die in vain!
Old John, go and tell their family members.
Tell them that one of them can obtain the status of a free citizen, and at the same time, I will reward them with a gold coin. This gold coin is exclusive to the families of these servants who died in battle. I will not take it away! They can choose Use gold coins to redeem freedom from me, of course you can also buy other things! I will not stop it!
Lord Baron, your kindness is enough to light up the entire night sky! Old John bowed and said respectfully.
It's just some trivial things. William clicked his tongue and said disapprovingly.
As for the members of the guards who died in battle, Old John, you go hold a grand ceremony and bury these members of the guards! I want everyone in the small village of Nisai to know that if it weren't for these dead heroes, they would have died. Can't stand here! They deserve all the respect!
Yes, Lord Baron! Old John also agreed with this point.
Their family members will receive a generous bonus. If there is someone in the family who is willing to join the guard, as long as the conditions are not too bad! I can accept it!
As for the official guard members who are still alive, and the six captains of the guard team, after their injuries are almost recovered, arrange for them to come to see me!
Lord Baron, how do you plan to reward them?
Strength, and honor! When winter passes, maybe new knights and even knights will be born among them!
Old John suddenly caught his breath!
