Black Iron Crown

Chapter 312: Cattle and sheep enter the north

At the same time, Rainer also has his own thinking. Even if Samuzha's brother has joined the big tribe, why does that big tribe support his brother to seize power instead of directly sending troops to **** it?

The reason is nothing more than that there are external enemies and cannot focus on this side, or there are internal disputes, and there is no way to go all out, or there are other things holding hands and feet, or people simply don’t like this one. Cold and barren land.

Regardless of the reason, Rainer is confident that he can help Prince Samuza regain the land without confronting that powerful tribe.

Next, Prince Samuza knelt down under the interpreter’s advice, and followed the interpreter to make a pledge of loyalty to Leiner. Then Leiner slapped him on the shoulder with a long sword three times, which was considered complete. Took the oath.

Then Rainer released Prince Samuza back.

He is a smart man. He knows that once he turns against the water, he will face a fatal blow again. Now all his hopes are pinned on Lena.

Therefore, he very obediently sent one-fifth of the cattle and sheep to Lena as promised, that is, four thousand five hundred cattle and twelve thousand three hundred sheep.

For a large tribe entrenched in the north of the grassland, this is the limit they can come up with.

However, after paying so much cattle and sheep, it means that many people will not survive this winter and die in this cold season.

But Lenner doesn’t care about this. The entire Pakuten Department of over 50,000 is already an extremely large number. As a farming society, Lenner’s territory is only 170,000 people, and their nomadic people have more than 50,000 people. The number inevitably makes Reiner uneasy.

Anyway, even if you pay too much cattle and sheep, according to the urinary nature of the nomads, the people who starve to death are often the old and the weak. At that time, the soldiers that Prince Samuzha can provide himself will not decrease.

If you can get a lot of benefits, why not do it?

So, after waiting for more than half a month for Fort Samuel, he finally waited for the 4,500 cows and 12,300 sheep promised by Samuza.

Outside the entire Fort Samne, there are already large herds of cattle and sheep.

For a while, the entire castle was stinking, but no one complained about it.

At first, these vassals were unhappy when they heard Rainer said that they would support Prince Samuza, but after seeing the endless stream of cattle and sheep, their eyes almost lighted up.

"My master, I have brought you cattle and sheep. I hope you can help me with some food to feed my people..."

Prince Samuza whispered, and the interpreter relayed his meaning to Rainer.

He has completely succumbed, there is no way, the situation is better than others.

He couldn't show any disrespect to Rainer anyway, because that would cost him everything.

Rainer raised his eyebrows and said: "It's a pity that Samuza, I can only give you fifty tons of food as aid, because I don't have much food in my hands during this war. I hope you can use it. The past methods of your nomads take your tribe to persevere!"

Rainer shamelessly refused Samuzha's request. There were still 100,000 tons of grain in his warehouse, but he was only willing to pay 50 tons of grain to his vassals...

Prince Samuza was very disappointed when he heard this. Fifty tons of food...This is only enough for all the tribe to eat for a day...

But there is no way. Before defeating his brother, his only hope is Lena, and he can't have any dissatisfaction.

After sending away Samuzha, Rainer asked the cattle and sheep to count the cattle and sheep and divided them into two evenly.

"Baron Azak, you have paid a lot for me in the past battles, giving you 200 of the 2,250 cows and 550 of the 6,150 sheep. I'll give you the first share!"

Reiner began to reward his merits, and Baron Azac, as a hard-core supporter of Reiner, received the largest share.

The remaining Reiner was distributed according to the distance and closeness of the relationship. In how many orders were Baron Azac, Baron Cod, Baron Varas, and Baron Leyland. These followed Reiner before and were later divided into nobles. Vassal.

The last ones are the other vassals. Apart from them, it was Bantis who got more cattle and sheep. His father lost his life in order to pay loyalty to Rainer, and Rainer couldn't help but express.

He is now also a capable baron with the original two baronies.

After assigning to play these, regardless of the criticism of some vassals, Rainer drove to his territory with the remaining 2,250 cows and 6,150 sheep.

"My holy father! See what it is!"

A resident looked up when he was restoring his fence, and he suddenly noticed a white torrent with no visible margins in the distance.

His exclamation alarmed the neighbor next door. Thinking that there was some danger, his neighbor put on his fur and rushed out with an iron dung fork.

"Oh my holy father...that's sheep! A big flock of sheep! I have never seen so many in my life...one...two...no, I can't count it!" His neighbor also sent out Exclaimed.

This torrent is getting closer and closer, and the villagers all walked out of the house to see this rare sight.

And when a red flag appeared on the horizon, they finally understood what was going on.

"It's Lord Earl! Lord Earl, he is back!"

The residents cheered and looked at the army that gradually appeared in front of them, shouting loudly.

Being able to live in a prosperous earldom is not a glorious and happy thing for these residents.

Tirehan is very uncomfortable now, because she and his riders and archers have to take care of the nomadic tradition, which is...herding sheep.

It is worthy of being the top arm of the Kujit Khanate, and even the grazing technology is so exquisite. Under their drive, these sheep are very obedient and follow Leiner's marching route without any error.

When they reached the front of the village, these residents ran to the side of the road to cheer and took off their hats to greet Leiner.

"Long live the earl!"

"Master Earl is invincible!"

"Master Earl! Let my boy join your army!"

"..."

Go away! Is your kid old enough?

Lena smiled and waved hello to the group of residents~lightnovelpub.net~ For this kind of feeling loved by everyone... Lena thought it was pretty cool.

This was mostly the case along the way. After seeing Rainer's triumphant return, the residents all stepped in to welcome him.

Leiner escorted the cattle and sheep to the north of Fort Merland, where there was a 15-square-kilometer pasture. Although the area may not be enough, Leiner also planted 500,000 acres of clover last year.

There is no need to stock them like nomads. Reiner is a good farming civilization. Direct captive breeding is king!

For a while, the news of Rainer's victory once again spread throughout the northern territory, and the name of the Northerner's Earl was completely branded on Rainer's body.
