THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 83: THE KNIGHTS MOVE
Several days had passed since Myro announced the capture of the Noem Family to the entire population, now changes could already be seen in Loth City, Vendes City and Rorec City.
The villagers rushed to their fields early in the morning, then returned as the day approached night.
Right now Myro was standing in front of the wooden gate of Loth City with 1000 orderly marching knights led by Aclan.
Many of the villagers who were planning to go to the fields observed all of that curiously, however they did not know the purpose of Myro gathering his 1000 knights in front of the city gates.
Gazing at the entire army of knights in front of him, Myro shouted "From today you should move towards Rorec City to guard here from the attack of the Orc-Goblin Kingdom, you should move towards Rorec City to guard here from the Orc-Goblin Kingdom, as the front-row city of the Orc-Goblin Kingdom and Cavalry Kingdom in the past, Rorec City was often destroyed by war. Therefore, I sent you guys who are trained troops to guard the city, do you understand?".
"Understand it, sir!", the knights shouted decisively.
"Aclan, during this time as well, you should be the mayor and general who leads Rorec City. You can make a decision whether it's a military matter or a Rorec City government until I decide on the right mayor, do you understand?", asked Myro who was standing in front of Aclan.
Aclan who had already covered his entire body with armor so that Myro could not see his face shouted loudly "I understand, sir! I definitely do my best to guard and develop Rorec City, as long as I am still alive then I will not let Rorec City fall into the hands of the enemy! I definitely did not disappoint the trust that you gave me!".
Myro patted Aclan's shoulder with a gentle smile "Sorry for having to give you this heavy duty, when I already have a lot of soldiers and manpower in my hands, I definitely sent help for you in Rorec City".
After that, Aclan brought his 1000 knights towards Rorec City.
As long as Myro had not yet elected another mayor of Rorec City, Myro gave Aclan the most power in the city, being the military and political leader of Rorec City.
Had Aclan not come from the world, Myro would not have given him this much power because it would have meant that Aclan would have been the ruler of Rorec City until Myro had appointed a new leader. The stronger the power a person has, the more likely they are to betray, therefore Myro only gives this much power to a trustworthy person.
Ren who was standing behind Myro certainly realized the worried face of Myro who was staring at Aclan with the knights "Master need not worry, this Aclan was not easy at all. At least he was a strong person fighting as well as having the intelligence to organize the defense as well, there was no problem for him to guard a city for many years".
Hearing Ren's words, Myro could only nod. After all Ren had a keen observation, most likely Aclan could indeed guard Rorec City with that ability.
"Let's go back, there's still a lot of work to do. Although Feld was already mayor so almost all the work governing this city was given to him, but we still lack a lot of manpower. We have to go back as quickly as possible to help him solve all the problems in the city" said Myro who turned around and decided to return to the mayor's building.
"What about Parga? Is he gone?", asked Myro again.
Not long from the sending of the Noem Family to the court, Parga immediately released all his military power in 3 cities of the Myro region.
Then it was agreed from the beginning that Parga could choose to become mayor between the City of Vendes and the City of Rorec.
Without a doubt, Parga chose the much better Vendes City because the attack from the Orc-Goblin Kingdom must have fallen first to Rorec City before heading to Vendes City, the city of the Great, so Parga chose a city that was harder to attack.
Myro also did not mind the decision of the Parga, he gave him permission.
"The price had already left with the other Sild Family yesterday, it seems that they decided to rebuild the Sild Family in Vendes City" Ren reported "In addition, it seems that they decided to rebuild the Sild Family in Vendes City, a letter from the court has emerged that the Noem Family was found guilty and committed treason, they will give the appropriate punishment. Then the court also mentioned that all the property obtained by the Noem Family will fall into the hands of the Baron, therefore we have no financial problems for a while, at least there is no problem to feed the residents until they harvest later".
"The court also agreed to let us manage the iron mines on the condition that we have to pay an annual tax of 10% annually, but we managed to catch the criminals of the Noem Family who betrayed us so that the kingdom agreed to give us a gift in the form of not having to pay iron mine taxes for 5 years".
Myro nodded, seemingly giving the Noem Family to the court is indeed useful "Everything goes right, if it continues like this then it is only a matter of time before the 3 cities I get develop".
"At first I also thought about it, but there are still 1 other problem" Ren said coldly "There are still a lot of bandits around these 3 cities, there are still a lot of bandits around, this certainly makes the traders afraid to come here. Not only that, I was informed that the bandits were planning to steal the iron mine, so I let 100 Mongol Cavalry along with 200 Loth City defense forces stand guard there".
"On those bandits still dare to make trouble?" said Myro who already had a gloomy face "At first I let them live because the existence of those bandits was no more threatening than the Noem Family, who had a grim countenance, but who would have thought that they dared to try to steal the iron mine? The problem is that we don't have a lot of troops to attack them now, do I have to pull back the knight army to fight the bandits first?".
Myro now lacked the troops to clear the bandits, 1000 knights along with Aclan had to guard the border, the city's defense forces were not at all that strong to defeat the bandits, whereas the Mongol Cavalry could indeed defeat the bandits. But if the Mongol Cavalry were to leave then there would be no more guarding Loth City, the bandits would probably directly attack this city.
"Master need not worry, didn't the new master summon an army a few days ago? I'm sure the troops will arrive soon" Ren said.
"Calling the troops?", when Myro was confused, he suddenly recalled his meeting with Lana in the Cavalry Capital before coming to this Loth City.
