Baron Antayas also didn't believe that Alsburg, which had become a bandit's nest, didn't have much gold and silver. He spent the whole afternoon rummaging around for property that the bandits might have hidden, and interrogated the surviving bandits one by one to ask about the whereabouts of the gold and silver property. However, even after beating two bandits to death, Baron Antayas could not hear a single answer he wanted. Baron Antayas had no choice but to accept this reality.
After counting, the gold and silver found in the fort was converted into less than 12,000 pfennigs. However, the gold and silver money was not much, but there was a lot of supplies. There were 15,000 pounds of grain in the fort, eight miscellaneous horses, six oxen, more than 30 pigs and sheep, more than 70 pieces of weapons and armor. In addition, there was a batch of plundered velvet, porcelain, tea, spices and linen and other valuable goods that could not be consumed.
In the evening, Baron Antayas held a military meeting with the leaders of several teams in the lord's wooden house. A circle of leaders sat around the long table in the wooden house, including Art, who was the main attacking force, and the knight Druid of the inner palace.
Baron Antayas sat on top and cleared his throat to signal everyone to be quiet, and said: "Everyone knows the result. After confirmation by several bandit leaders, it is true that only these gold and silver coins are left in Alsburg. It is said that the goods looted by the bandits over the years have been used by the bandit leaders to recruit soldiers and purchase weapons and supplies. They plan to stay in Alsburg for a long time. There is not much money in the fort, but there is still a lot of supplies. Now I have called you to discuss how to distribute these seizures."
Hearing that the baron was about to discuss the distribution of the war gains, several knights who had previously fought over the private distribution of property began to make a fuss again. Sir Chloe was the first to speak. He stood up, raised his left arm that was injured by the hammer and said: "My lord, this time During the battle to climb the city, we were the first to scale the fort wall, killing and injuring five bandits, and our losses were also heavy. Three of my peasant soldiers were killed in the battle, and one of my subordinates was scalded by boiling excrement water and was almost lifeless. I should have been given an extra share when the battle was assigned."
When talking about the distribution of battle gains, the usually humble druid knight also became excited. "If we talk about battle losses, we city guards took the lead in launching a fierce attack. During the siege and the fort gate battle, three soldiers were killed, four were seriously injured, and many others were slightly injured. We should divide the majority, right?"
Several knights saw the situation and immediately began to talk about it. Some said that they sent more troops and suffered a lot of losses, and some said that they killed more enemies and had higher achievements in battle.
"Big Nose, you have the nerve to say you have killed the most enemies? What enemies did you kill? They were all bandits who had surrendered~"
"That's better than you, a coward who hides under the wooden ladder and dare not rush up..."
The more they talked, the more excited they became, and they almost slapped the table and threw the bench to start a fight.
Baron Antayas was so angry that his eyes were filled with anger. He jumped up from his seat, drew out his long sword and slapped it on the wooden table, shouting: "Quiet! When fighting, push and pull, and when sharing money, hungry dogs fight over shit."
Everyone was quiet for a while. Baron Antayas sat down, took a breath, looked at Art, who was sitting at the end, and said: "Inspector Art, you are the first to recover Als this time. How do you think you should divide it?"
Several people in the room looked at Art.
Matt adjusted his armor, took a look at the crowd and said, "My lords, the capture of Alsburg this time was inseparable from your heroes and heroes, not to mention the Baron's command and control. But everyone has also seen the strength of Alsburg and the stubborn resistance of the bandits. If there were no patrol soldiers to sneak attack on the fort gate, even if Even if all the soldiers are killed, we may not be able to win. In order to allow everyone to enter the fort as soon as possible, the soldiers of our patrol team who participated in the sneak attack killed two people on the spot. Everyone else was injured, and a few others were not sure whether they could be saved. Moreover, the Baron had promised me before that he would use a quarter of the captured money as military expenses to assist me in the suppression..."
There were leaders of six teams present, and Art alone wanted to take away a quarter of the capture. Of course, everyone would not agree, so there was another dispute...
Until late at night, after Baron Antayas's hard and soft mediation, the distribution standard was finally determined based on military merit and taking into account the number of troops sent and the number of battle casualties. According to this standard, Art can get close to one-sixth of the seizures. He himself also made concessions on the money, horses and armor that became the focus of everyone. He asked for less money, horses and armor, but gained more food, livestock and other supplies.
At the end of the day, Art's patrol team received 1,200 pfennigs of money, 6,000 pounds of grain, two miscellaneous horses, one ox, three carriages, fifteen horses of linen, and several bags of spices and salt. The armor, swords, strong bows and arrows among the seized weapons were naturally no match for those knights, but It was Art who asked Baron Antayas for two sets of damaged leather armor, seven short spears, four daggers, a piece of cotton armor, a batch of military boots and belts, and other scattered military supplies on the grounds that the patrol's weapons were too damaged and had no place to replenish them. In addition, Art sent people to pick up the severely damaged weapons.
Having basically reached an agreement on the distribution of war rewards, everyone left the wooden house and returned to the camps inside and outside the fort to rest.
Seeing everyone leaving, Art walked to Baron Antayas and leaned over and asked: "Sir, what do you plan to do with these captured bandits?"?
Baron Antayas took a sip from the wooden cup on the table and said, "What else can we do? Drag all those guys back to Andermatt Castle and kill them, so as to scare the restless guys around the territory."
Attayas said: "Sir, you will kill them anyway if you capture them, so why not hand over the captured bandits to me?"
We are a group of bandits who captured Ars, and I also need serfs..."
"Can you exchange it for money?"
"Yes, I can."
Antayas thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
So, except for one of the captured bandits in Alsburg who died of serious injuries, the rest were all handed over to Art.
On the second day, Art, who had finished collecting supplies and rescuing wounded soldiers, took a few soldiers to the stable where the prisoners were kept, and took over the prisoners from the guards guarding the city.
"Ron, bring the villagers up." Ron took the order and brought four or five surviving Alsburg native villagers to the barn.
Att stood in front of the villagers and said loudly: "Don't be afraid, everyone. Now these demons have been defeated by us. The purpose of inviting you here today is to identify the big and small bosses among them or the gangsters who oppress good people and do evil. Pointing out a gangster will reward one pfennig, and the leader will be rewarded with two pfennigs..."
The villagers whispered among themselves for a while, and then stepped forward to identify him.
After a round of careful screening, four of the twenty bandits were Alsburg villagers who were forced by the bandit leader to join the group of bandits, and eleven were refugees and bankrupt farmers that the bandit leader had just brought from the surrounding areas. Most of them had not done anything too evil. Among the remaining people, there were two small bosses and three old gangsters, who were the culprits in the conquest and plunder of Als.
Yate escorted all the captured bandits to an open space outside the fort, and asked the soldiers from the patrol who stayed outside the fort to cover the climb to the city and had not experienced the fighting in battle to behead the five leaders and the bandits in front of all the prisoners. This exercised the courage of the soldiers and at the same time shocked the remaining prisoners.
It was noon when the execution took place, and an open space outside Alsburg was surrounded by soldiers and farmers watching the excitement. Art stood in front of the open space wearing armor and holding a sword, and behind him stood the druid knight who came to supervise the execution on behalf of Baron Antayas. Kazak, the captain of the patrol team, was in charge of this execution. He directed a dozen soldiers to drag the bandit leader and gangsters, who were hooded, gagged, and bound, to the center of the open space, and forced the remaining fifteen bandits to watch the execution under the supervision of the soldiers.
Jason was one of the five soldiers selected for execution. He stood next to a gangster whose hands and feet were tied and paralyzed on the ground, holding a broad-edged sword in his hand. The gangster in front of him was trembling with fear, and the stench of feces and urine wafted from his crotch.
To be precise, Jason was different from the other soldiers who participated in the execution. He had participated in the battle at Winston Manor and killed an enemy, although it was the guy who took the initiative to bump into his short spear and was stabbed to death.
Jason hated these bandits during the siege. These demons caused many brothers to die outside the castle, including even the brothers who lived together day and night in the two patrol teams. The killing intent and ferocity during the war slowly faded away with the end of the battle. Now looking at the trembling gangster paralyzed in front of him, he couldn't bear it. He quietly raised his head and glanced at the other execution soldiers. Their hands holding swords and axes were all trembling.
Before Jason could think about it, Inspector Art's voice had already sounded, "I, Art Wood Wells, Inspector of the Southern Territory of the Count of Burgundy, represent the shepherd of the southeastern border of Tyniec, the Count of Burgundy, the baron of the Count of Burgundy, Lord Antayas Berg of the Falcon family, to declare your sins and give you the final judgment on behalf of the gods."
After saying that, he nodded towards Kazak who organized the execution.
"Get ready, raise your sword!" Kazak's voice sounded.
Jason tightened his grip on the broad-bladed sword in his hand and slowly raised it. At this time, the ruthless gangster who was lying limp on the ground was whimpering in horror.
"Aim for the neck." Kazak's order continued to sound.
Jason's raised hand was shaking so badly that he had to squeeze his right hand with his left hand to stop himself from shaking.
"Cut!"
Jason aimed at the gangster's head, clenched his teeth and slashed it with his sword. He felt a pause in his hand. The broad-edged sword was stuck in the gangster's neck bone, but his head was not severed. The gangster, who was still alive, stretched his legs and kicked on the ground and struggled, his body twisted and deformed in pain.
Jason was so frightened that he dropped his weapon and stepped back.
Squad leader Kazak's roar sounded. He saw that three of the five soldiers who were executed failed to be killed with one sword. He shouted to the soldiers who were executed: "You bunch of bastards, go back and mend your swords. If you can't kill the gangster, I will kill you."
The captains of each group who were waiting on the side also walked out of the team, kicked the retreating soldiers back, pulled out the swords and axes from their waists and threw them at them, until the execution soldiers were forced to stab the thugs on the ground to death or chop them into pieces with swords and axes...
Many of the friendly soldiers and farmers around the clearing who originally planned to watch the fun had experienced fighting and death in yesterday's battle, but they were still stunned by the sight in front of them. These ruthless guys who called themselves the Patrol Team left an indelible impression on everyone present...
