Columfell Long-legged, the third city lord of Coldwind City, fell in the city that he worked hard to manage but was declining. His body crawled on the ground and shrank into a ball in an extremely painful posture. No matter how much glory is in life, it is only so after death.
When Zhou Qingfeng announced the news on the Shengguang network, the hungry people in the city burst into cheers from the mountains and the tsunami. No one is surprised by it, no one is surprised by it.
The long-legged family ruled in Coldwind City for fifty years, just like a big mountain suppressed. The people in the city probably feel that this kind of rule will continue for another fifty years. But when the mountain collapsed, it was incredible.
It turned out that the nobility didn't last long.
The hungry people in the city are desperate with blood and courage. When they put their life and death aside, they unexpectedly find that they have harvested a great gift-the nobles who oppressed them are really done.
When the old long leg died, his party members were not a concern. Zhou Qingfeng announced that he was surrendered. For the noble servants to be exonerated, the general partisan can be retained, and the key personnel need to be screened.
The battle streets were covered with lava stones, and the guards lined up with their spears. The servants of the nobleman either kneeled down and begged for mercy or fled.
The long-legged family raised several family wizards of average level. In the duel, they were all sprayed to death by the flames of the abyss because of their running speed. Twenty or so family knights died, and the others fled.
Some independent little nobles all hid back home. They had the same mentality as the wizards of the wizarding association in the city. I feel that no matter who is in power, they are indispensable for their help in ruling, and I hope that after the limelight is over, they can continue to retain their wealth and status.
There are fewer than 100 people in Harmony Village, and fewer than 10 managers. It is difficult for the guards and guards to maintain order in the city. Zhou Qingfeng promoted Wilson, the president of the Craftsmen Association, to the deputy city lord, and established a ruling institution based on the original craftsman system.
Wilson is a typical petty-bourgeois mentality, talented but relatively weak, eager to cling to the powerful to survive. After Zhou Qingfeng's appointment was given, he cheered like "Fan Jinzhongju" and made a wish on the spot to other craftsmen who followed him, causing a group of people to praise the Holy Light.
But Zhou Qingfeng only gave Wilson the establishment of five clerks and twenty scribes. At the same time, he sent Luke to return to Harmony Village quickly. The real bureaucracy will still be determined after Enisa arrives.
"Next, organize personnel to put out fires, seal up the properties of the nobles, suppress the reactionaries who took advantage of the chaos, identify the nobles and their subordinates, and at the same time provide relief to the hungry people in the city, open warehouses and release grain, and stabilize the social situation."
Zhou Qingfeng had too much experience in re-treatment after the chaos, and immediately expanded on the basis of the guards, recruiting those craftsmen who were familiar with the city environment and were more reliable.
The 30-person guard team swelled to 500 in one breath, and all the soldiers in the team turned to serve as temporary squad leaders for 15 people.
At this moment, the six months of education for personal guards finally showed a huge advantage. Anyone can understand and repeat commands, and can write a certain degree of initiative, and execute commands simply and decisively, without hesitation and blurring.
Shengguang Network completely enveloped Coldwind City, and the Guards were scattered with tens of thousands of hidden servants. Any disturbance in the city could not escape Zhou Qingfeng's eyes.
If there is any accident, the horseback guard is a mobile force, culling the danger in the bud at any time, enough to deter lawlessness and establish the prestige of a new regime.
It was such a fierce battle that Zhou Qingfeng had taken Cold Wind City in just half a day. This fast speed was like a blink of an eye. In the morning, it was still the domain of the Long-legged family. In the afternoon, a red flag was raised on the city lord’s mansion.
The advance team also has thirty armed civilians, all of whom are generalists. My master entered the city yesterday, and today he took the city by force. This situation makes people laugh from ear to ear.
The armed civil servants also simply expanded and brought in the families of the craftsmen, who were also hundreds of people. They drove a horse-drawn carriage to establish a relief point, toasting bread and boiling hot soup day and night, to feed all the living people in the city.
Suppress the nobles and win over the hungry, this hard and soft hand quickly restore order. Before nightfall, Coldwind City had gradually calmed down. The streets are full of cheerful scenes, without the chaos of shouting and killing.
Several bonfires were lit in front of the long-legged city lord’s mansion. Zhou Qingfeng stood on the outside illuminated by the bonfire, watching a group of hungry people happily rushing to receive free bread and hot soup.
The food for relief comes from several granaries in the city, and the long-legged households have thousands of tons of food. Other nobles, large and small, also kept food as hard currency. There is no shortage of food in the city, and the famine is entirely man-made.
After eating, hungry people can also live in the nobility's mansion. They can rest for a few days, and then decide how to arrange it after Yinisa arrives with the main force of Harmony Village.
According to preliminary estimates, there are still more than 8,000 people in Coldwind City. There are still two to three thousand people waiting for containment outside the city. The rest of the population is either dead or fled without a trace.
Behind Zhou Qingfeng stood Fabro and other wizards from Coldwind City. This group of people was still waiting for Zhou Qingfeng to take the initiative to recruit them at the Wizard's Tower. But the left can't wait, the right can't wait, but the city continues to recover, even more than before.
The wizards couldn't wait any longer, so they could only recommend Fabro to the new master of the city. They thought that the new owner would occupy the long-legged mansion without hesitation, but they didn't expect to see a group of hungry people living in.
Sure enough, it was a barbarian from the Black Forest, such a good house for the hungry people. Those hungry people will not be grateful, it is a violent thing-the wizards exchanged eyes with each other, and their hearts are a little contemptuous.
"On the opposite side of the city lord's mansion, we found a few dry wells." Zhou Qingfeng pointed his finger towards the night and scribbled an area at random. "There are corpses in the wells, both men and women. It should be the corpse collectors who are too lazy. Run, just throw it away."
Zhou Qingfeng originally wanted to feel the difficulties of the people's livelihood, but found that he was talking with ducks. Those wizards didn't know if they were used to seeing life and death, or were born cold-blooded, in short, they didn't move. He looked back, and the wizards respected him again, as if listening carefully.
This bunch of bastards still have a lot to clean up.
"Mondino." Zhou Qingfeng shouted.
Wearing a black robe, the rickety necromancer walked out slowly, "Your Excellency, I am waiting for your instructions."
"I appoint you as the chief of the dead in Coldwind City." Zhou Qingfeng said. Mondino also nodded slightly to express his gratitude.
This is what it should be, and no one will fight. It is also a great blessing to let the'soul-grabber' who used to be beaten by everyone to have a public identity. Just when everyone felt that grace was nothing but this, Zhou Qingfeng said again...
"Mondino, today you got rid of Columfell Long legs. You did a lot and lost a precious Balrog skeleton. I am very satisfied with your performance. This must be rewarded."
Hearing the word reward, everyone's ears were pricked. Zhou Qingfeng drove away the nobles of Cold Wind City and killed them. In a hurry, the nobles' wealth and treasures accumulated for decades have all left him cheap.
It's not unusual to take a few things from the treasure house of the nobles to buy people's hearts. Everyone just wants to know what it is. Even Mondino himself was excited. He thought that Zhou Qingshan would not reward himself with a green crystal
But this is a huge gain, stronger than any Balrog skeleton.
But Zhou Qingfeng only stretched out his hand, and a series of gleaming runes appeared in his palm. The rune floated towards Mondino, and before the necromancer could tell what it was, the rune fell into his body.
Runes have been seen a lot by a group of wizards, and they also know its importance. But runes are good or bad, and junk runes are worthless. The top rune is extremely rare, a hidden treasure.
Seeing that it was a rune, Mondino was a little disappointed. But when the rune entered the body, his rickety body suddenly creaked, and his broken waist was straightened again. His gray bones grew darker and darker.
Just as everyone was puzzled, Mondino himself shouted in surprise: "This is the core rune of the Necro System..., bones."
