Attribute addition is not in a hurry. Harold continues to move forward with his men. He just regards passing through the kingdom of Babylon as a supply station and does not go deep into the territory of the kingdom of Babylon.

    At this time, it is not too far from leaving the territory of the kingdom of Babylon to reach the wilderness. It only takes two or three more days. If you retreat and detour, it will waste at least half a month, and who knows what danger will happen during this period.

    Harold''s move was still a little reckless. The nobles of the kingdom of Babylon were not waste. After he defeated the first nobles, another nobleman led troops to catch up.

    Harlott''s caravan transported a large number of armor and weapons, which could not bring him back to the kingdom of Colombo. This time, the nobles were not only stronger, but also more sinister.

    After losing both sides in the war with harlott, this guy hung far behind harlott and his party and had been assembling troops to prepare for another war. Harlott couldn''t get rid of the enemy with goods.

    "Sir, shall I kill those tails in the distance?" a rogue Knight volunteered, and Harold refused.

    It''s no use killing one or two scouts. The caravan with so many people can''t get rid of tracking. In case of being ambushed, a rogue Knight will lose a lot.

    After the first world war with the noble two days ago, only a dozen ordinary soldiers under harlott died, and a large number of system soldiers died, leaving only four [rogue Knights], 10 [Colombo iron guards] and 5 [Colombo cavalry].

    Now harlott has urgently recruited 20 [farmers] from the Coachmans and servants. Although he has no time for training, this level-1 soldier has been upgraded very quickly. As long as he participated in the battle that day, he will be enough to upgrade and become a [militia].

    [militia] the combat effectiveness is very good. Although they are systematic soldiers, they are a little inferior to those ordinary soldiers who have been strictly trained. None of their strength and agility attributes has exceeded 10. Their combat skills are LV1 and lv0. More importantly, they can''t give full play to their strength on the battlefield without systematic training.

    The enemy aristocrat has been assembling troops. I think it should be almost. Besides many soldiers, there must be a lot of knights. Harold''s troops relying on this must not be his opponent.

    "Leave the goods and run?" Harold seriously thought about this problem. Isn''t it the dwarf equipment with more than 100000 gold coins? It''s a big deal that he will take wine to the dwarf Kingdom next time. The purchase price of this batch of equipment is only about 20000 gold coins. He can afford to lose!

    Just as Harold was about to give the order to discard the goods, something unexpected happened. The enemy scouts behind them were stopped by a group of 100 cavalry led by knights.

    The knight Harold really knew him. He was under count Ramon. He said that they were indeed in count Ramon''s territory now.

    At the same time, count Ramon also greeted Harold with his troops from a distance, greeted him from a distance and shouted, "Hey, brother, I''ll help you!"

    Harold is a little unbelievable at this time. Will count Ramon come to save him? Really treat him as a brother? He''s not even a noble now! It''s not a trap to kill him, is it?

    No, it''s not necessary. Count Ramon is also one of the largest nobles in the kingdom of Babylon. No one can suppress him except the king and two marquis. If you want to rob, just do it. Don''t worry about others.

    Why did he help me? Harold was puzzled, but he greeted him warmly: "count Ramon, I haven''t seen you for a long time. The magic lamp you sent me is very easy to use!"

    Ramon only let a few Knights follow, and drove his horse to Harold. Harold didn''t let his men stop him. Ramon seemed to really come to help him!

    "It''s bad news that the kingdom of Colombo and other countries are at war because of their interests, but it has nothing to do with us, right?" Ramon said with a smile.

    Harold followed his words and said, "I''m just a businessman. I don''t want to participate in the war. I hope for peaceful trade. I just have to defend myself after being attacked!"

    Count Ramon is a dove? It is possible that not all nobles like war, not to mention the internal struggle between the human kingdoms.

    "Then we agree. I''m not interested in participating in the war. I don''t want to expand my territory. Come to my castle. Let''s have a party and talk while eating and drinking!" Ramon smiled more and invited Harold to be a guest.

    Harlott nodded and agreed. Ramon didn''t seem to lie to him, and there was no reason to lie to him. He was tired now. If he really fought, he would be defeated by the other party in an instant. Count Ramon''s army had thousands of people, and about ten Knights came.

    Harold asked his men to follow Ramon''s troops to the castle. At this time, the nobles who chased Harold all the way caught up and shouted angrily: "Ramon, what do you mean, this guy hurt Jones and killed hundreds of my soldiers. Now you take him to the castle to rest. Do you want to betray the country?"

    Ramon''s troops are far more than that noble. He is too lazy to talk nonsense with each other. He drives flies and says, "hody, this is my territory. Harold is my guest. You''d better get out of my territory with your troops. In addition, you''re just a little Baron and are not qualified to accuse me of treason!"

    Come on, the most painful thing about the aristocratic enfeoffment system is that the national cohesion is not enough!

    Nobles are self willed and reckless. Kings are not qualified to order domestic nobles. They can only use interests to persuade and bind nobles to act together. However, so many nobles always have objections. In this case, they can only turn a blind eye and let them go.

    The king can''t control it, and the nobles in the same camp will not support him. No nobles dare to guarantee that they will always stand on the same line with the king, and they will always be the side of the majority. There is a tacit understanding between the nobles of the kingdom.

    The kingdom can''t force the nobles to do anything. The nobles must do anything they want. I don''t object if you want to go to war with other countries, but I don''t want to send troops. Don''t force me. Anyway, I don''t divide your booty.

    (when playing riding and chopping, many nobles were rowing. The front line was so fierce that several nobles even had a party in the castle!!!)

    Of course, if it is really a time of life and death, such as the massive invasion of orcs and the national attack of lizards, the nobles are not fools and will use all their strength to fight together, but now it is a civil war between humans, and the kingdom of Babylon is still the aggressor, and its own territory is not in danger, there are more nobles rowing.

    The noble who chased harlott blushed and looked at count Ramon angrily. Finally, he had to leave with his troops. Issues such as title and strength were put aside. This land belongs to Ramon''s territory. In case of conflict, other nobles in the kingdom must be on Ramon''s side.

    The crime of treason is nonsense. Harold is just an enemy caravan, not an aggressor army that burns and kills captives. Protecting such a caravan is treason. It is estimated that all nobles in the country, including the king, are treason.

    After all, every nobleman only cares about the development of his territory and his own strength. Whether the country is strong or not is incidental. He has basically done activities at the expense of the public and private interests.

    The prosperity of one''s own territory is doubled, and the prosperity of national territory is 20%. Let the nobles choose, and everyone will choose the first!

    Ramon''s help to Harold is not a big deal. It''s just a small effort. It''s in his own interests, but Harold also gave a lot of money to thank him. He gave a lot of water of heroes and gave half of the dwarf''s equipment to count Ramon for nothing.

    If Ramon hadn''t helped, all these goods would have been left. It''s OK to send half of them now. Make room to buy a large number of grain and slaves. You can earn a lot when you go back to Colombo to sell.

    Harold is also a sensible man. After listening to Ramon''s description of the current international situation, he immediately judged the dilemma of domestic food shortage but labor force.

    Ramon''s face turned red and he received a lot of hero''s water. He was in a good mood. After diluting the hero''s water, let the unawakened nobles drink it, which can greatly improve the probability of awakening blood, and the side effects will not be fatal.

    However, this can only make the nobles ensure that their blood will not decline and disappear, and there is no way to mass produce their descendants. Generally, one nobleman in each generation awakens his blood, and the blood of others will dry up automatically. The power of heroes is given by the sun and cannot increase for no reason.

    Only like the Elvin family of Marcus, the younger generation are unparalleled in bravery and often receive the gift of the sun, can the blood power grow.

    Ramon talked about why he didn''t want to go to war with the kingdom of Colombo: "the territory that a person can directly rule is so large. No matter how much, it''s not assigned to his men to help manage. What do you want such a large territory for?"

    "There are hundreds of villages and several towns in my territory. There are countless beautiful women. I play one every day, but before I use up all the beautiful women, the new beautiful women grow up again!" Ramon is also an old color batch. There are more than a dozen beautiful female slaves who have been kept for a long time.

    Now it has also been revealed that he enjoys new beauties every day. Harold is envious and jealous!

    However, this is really nothing. The Lords of the kingdom of Babylon enjoy the "right of the first night". Every newly married girl must sleep with the local lords before getting married and pay if she is unwilling. However, civilians generally don''t care about chastity and rarely pay a lot of money. The Lords generally don''t like these ordinary village aunts, so the meaning ends.

    Ramon continued: "I don''t like war. I''m alive and don''t enjoy it. What''s the point of fighting around? I can understand others'' attack and self-defense counterattack to show deterrence, but what''s the purpose of taking the initiative to invade, waste money and energy? It''s not only a small number of ambitious people who benefit in the end?"

    At this moment, Harold was really shocked, anti war? Although he is an old color critic, Ramon''s anti war spirit revealed between the lines is beyond the ordinary nobility and even this era!

    Harold''s impression of Ramon had always been a typical lecherous and cunning aristocrat. Now it has suddenly changed. Think carefully, in the territory of count Ramon, civilians can live and work in peace and contentment. No matter how hard the villagers can afford to eat, there are few riots in the world of Warcraft.

    Ramon has a law in his territory that slaves who have worked for 10 years can be promoted to civilians. As long as they hand in part of their income in the next three years, they can completely get rid of their slave status.

    There are many loopholes in this law. Even one tenth of the slaves actually released did not exist, but it can still be seen that this is a law full of human nature and morality.

    Ramon is really a good Lord and noble! Does he enjoy a new beauty every day? It''s not a thing at all. In this era, nobles and knights often rob beautiful women indiscriminately. If they like any civilian girl, they will directly take it away as a plaything. It''s common to sell it as a slave if they are tired of it.

    The woman Ramon played with will not only be sent back safely, but also give some money subsidies. It''s a kind person!

    Harold stayed in Ramon''s territory for 5 days. During this period, he carefully visited the towns and villages ruled by Ramon. Without exception, all of them are above the average level of the human kingdom. More accurately, except for a few with particularly poor geographical environment, the degree of wealth is above the medium level in the human kingdom!

    Marcus''s territory is not so rich! Whether it is the territory of the current kingdom of Colombo or the former kingdom of lucanier.

    Marcus has always been the best aristocrat in Harold''s eyes, brave, wise, honest and powerful.

    However, the reality is that Ramon, who sleeps a new sister every day, manages the territory better and the people happier!

    The problem is that Marcus is bellicose! Not content with the status quo, always want to open up Xinjiang and expand soil!

    Harold pondered, what would the world''s human nobles be like if they were like Marcus, and what would they be like if they were like Ramon?

    Harold thought about it and didn''t come up with the result. According to the theory of "no struggle, no progress" and "born of hardship and died of happiness", if all human nobles are like Ramon, human beings will perish sooner or later.

    But it''s all Marcus? The endless journey, continuous war, aggression and expansion, human civilians in such a world must be very painful. As Ramon said, the pain of most people can only meet the interests of a few ambitious people.

    Harold doesn''t want to do it at all. Anyway, he is not even a noble. He leads tens of thousands of people and is just a small man. He can''t change the life of civilians. It''s the most important to live a good life.

    After this time, Harold established a good cooperative relationship with Ramon. Due to the war, Ramon could not openly and wantonly Trade grain and materials with Harold. However, when the war was over, he must resume trade immediately and expand the territory of Harold''s chamber of Commerce Branch.
