Chi!
A silver light flashed, and a head flew up against the wind.
While tumbling in the air, the unsettled eyes on his head were still staring at the city gate behind him that had not yet been closed.
Snapped!
The head fell to the ground.
Knight Palon's consciousness finally began to slacken, and the last thought lingering in his mind was—
Linshui City, it's over.
The eastern border knight paid the price with his life, but only delayed the Blood Cavalry Army for less than a second.
The surging cavalry passed over his body and swept towards the open city gate.
Inside the city gate, the defenders had already fled for their lives in all directions, and no one dared to stop the menacing cavalry.
Colin stopped in front of Palong Knight's corpse, with admiration and regret in his eyes.
If the head hadn't been broken, Colin would still try to transform this heroic eastern knight into a blood slave, but now, it definitely won't work.
The blood race is not a zombie, and cannot be brought back to life.
However, he did not allow the corpse to be trampled here, but ordered the soldiers to gather it up and bury it in the cemetery in the city later.
This is a true knight and deserves such treatment.
Afterwards, Colin followed the large army into the city.
Even though he had already expected the weakness of the army in the east, the situation in the city still surprised Colin.
The city's defenders failed to organize a decent resistance at all, and were chased all over the city by the blood cavalry like sheep. Even some sporadic resistance was suppressed without any difficulty.
You know, Linshui City is already one of the largest cities in this area, and the defenders in the city are actually so virtuous.
Moreover, Clover City was too chaotic that night, and many Tianma sailors escaped. They should have spread the news that the blood cavalry had crossed the river, but it still seemed that they were not prepared at all.
It is said that the Eastern Territory has been in peace for too long, and the military equipment has been relaxed, but Ke Lin did not expect that it would be so relaxed.
Sure enough, Guo Heng was invincible to foreign patients.
All the way to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Ke Lin did not encounter any organized resistance.
Looking up at the luxurious City Lord's Mansion, Colin sneered and ordered:
"Bump the door!"
This city lord's mansion is actually the castle of the Yajia family. Although it can't compare with the city walls of Linshui City, it still has some defensive capabilities. A dozen soldiers of the Blood Cavalry Army failed to break open the gate of the castle for a while.
Colin raised his eyebrows, told the soldiers to retreat temporarily, and then summoned the blood slave Lucien.
This sixth-tier warrior was covered in armor, holding a huge white shield that was almost as tall as a person, facing the gate of the castle, without the slightest hesitation, he kicked a deep hole on the ground with his feet!
boom!
Pushed by the powerful reaction force, his whole body rushed towards the gate of the castle like a fired shell.
Boom!
There was a sudden shaking, and the gate collapsed.
Without Colin's order, the soldiers of the Blood Cavalry immediately filed in.
There was a burst of howling ghosts and wolves inside, and some backbone soldiers in the east wanted to take up their weapons and fight, but they were quickly chopped down by the more brave soldiers of the blood cavalry army. As for more soldiers in the east, they still chose to fight. Kneel on the ground and surrender.
These soldiers who have not experienced the baptism of brutal war can hardly cause trouble to the wolf-like blood cavalry army.
Colin got off his horse and walked into the castle surrounded by soldiers.
In the castle, many people knelt down in darkness, and many injured kept screaming.
Ke Lin didn't stop on his feet, and walked straight to the inner courtyard.
He has already heard the sound of music coming out, it seems that the city lord is really fearless in the face of danger.
Is the other party deliberately showing this gesture to win his respect, or is he deliberately showing disdain to provoke himself
But when Colin really walked in, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
It turned out that they were just too excited to stop!
Even under the cold eyes of the soldiers of the Blood Cavalry Army, this group of nobles in Linshui City still went their own way, doing all kinds of indecent things, oblivious to what happened around them.
At this time, a half-elf businessman on the field pushed away the dancing girl wrapped around him, came to Colin with a flattering smile, and saluted respectfully:
"My lord, you are finally here!"
Colin coughed a few times, retracted his shocked gaze, and said, "You are Mr. Sass, right?"
"Yes, I arranged the convoy at the gate of the city. Are you satisfied?"
Colin nodded, pointed to the promiscuous and promiscuous scene in front of him, and asked, "You arranged this too?"
"Yes, my lord. I added hallucinogens to the wine, so they won't be able to regain their sanity for a while."
Colin waved his hands in disgust, and ordered the soldiers behind him, "Take them all down, and come see me when they wake up."
"yes!"
After the hall was cleaned up, Colin sat down on the main seat.
Sass quickly asked the maid to serve red wine—without addition, of course.
Colin happened to be thirsty after running all the way, so he picked it up and drank it all, and then said to the half-elf businessman, "Mr. Sass, I need your help with something."
Sass immediately responded: "My lord, just give me your orders!"
In fact, in the half-elf business world, Colin's reputation is very bad. Whether it is forcing low-cost grain collection, or setting up a half-elf foreign trade company, this makes the half-elf merchants very resistant.
But the biggest problem with the class of merchants is that they cannot be united. As long as there are enough interests, it is easy to divide and win over.
What's more, now that Silvermoon City is firmly controlled by the northern border, coupled with the tragic end of the legendary half-elf merchant Javier, most half-elf merchants have also recognized the reality and regard Colin as a clinging Object.
This Mr. Sass is the vanguard and leader of these half-elven businessmen.
Helping the Blood Cavalry Army capture Linshui City this time, Sass has completely boarded the bandit ship in the northern border, and from now on, he can only hug Colin's thigh tightly.
"I need your help to collect the food in the city. Of course, all the food from the Yajia family will be taken away. As for the common people, half of the food will be collected and half will be left for them."
"Master Earl, you are so kind! You even gave half of it to those untouchables in the east."
Colin smiled faintly, but did not explain.
In fact, he did this, on the one hand, because he didn't want to make things worse, after all, it would be a bit out of style to grab food from the mouth of the common people, but on the other hand, he was actually not short of food.
The grain purchased from Silvermoon City at a low price, coupled with the grain obtained from Earl Evan with bonds, is enough for the northern border to survive this year's famine.
After entering the Eastern Territory this time, the reason why he allowed the Blood Cavalry Army to rob food was actually to give people the illusion that the purpose of the Blood Cavalry Army entering the Eastern Territory was for food.
"The Blood Cavalry Army will assist you in collecting food, but the subsequent transportation will need to be carried out by your caravan alone, understand?"
"Understood!"
