Release that Witch - Chapter 475
[Chapter 468 Return]
After half a month, Roland finally set out on his way home.
After sweeping away the four major families and the black street rats with the power of thunder, the Longsong Fortress temporarily became a blank sheet of paper for him to do whatever he wanted.
Various relief and resettlement measures are being carried out in an orderly manner. Although the golden dragon and food found in the territories of Maple Leaf, Benlang and Briar are not as rich as Duke Lane’s, they add up to an astonishing income.
It was precisely because of this that he was able to expand the scope of relief food to the whole city without any worries, and he used the porridge time to promote policies, and the effect was not usually significant.
On the day of departure, the second army had already recruited the planned 500 people, and the police department also had a new team of about 200 people.
Roland kept half of the soldiers and Vader who participated in the expedition in the fortress. Apart from daily defense and security, the purpose was more to train these newcomers into usable fighters as soon as possible.
He knew that this blank period would not last long. If he did not quickly establish a channel for the people to directly connect with the city hall and extend his control power to the grassroots, then the decayed and outdated order would come back and fill this power vacuum. .
If you don’t break, you can’t stand, break and then stand, he has completed the goal of breaking, and the next step is the stage of standing.
What gave Roland confidence was the solid backing of Border Town. The total population has grown to more than 30,000, and more than half of the population is receiving basic education. In future generations, it is only the size of two middle schools, but in this era it is extremely An astonishing scale – the education that is popularized to every townsman is not simply literacy, but also basic natural knowledge, political thought… and the national consciousness instilled in it.
The improvement of cultural level can allow him to have enough grassroots manpower to promote change; and compared to the ignorant people who don’t know why they are fighting and accept suffering, the awakening of national consciousness will make them burst into unimaginable power.
These leaders of the small town are the seeds he sowed. One day, they will set off a prairie fire on this continent.
As the sky gradually darkened, the looming outline of the town appeared before Roland’s eyes.
“Look quickly… what is that?” a nobleman behind him exclaimed.
“A… bridge?” Another person raised his head to look at it, “Oh my god, it’s too long.”
“That’s impossible, there are only two pillars, how can it support such a long bridge deck?”
“Wait Wait… it seems to be made of iron!” On the
way back, apart from the witch, there were dozens of nobles on Roland’s boat. They either had shallow family backgrounds or low titles, and they stayed away from rebellion, so they escaped His cleaning.
According to the plan, they will systematically learn the hierarchical management methods of the city hall in the small town, and return to the fortress when the city is formally established, assisting Pei Luo in establishing a lower-level city hall, executing and giving feedback on the orders issued by him.
After losing the privileges of the aristocratic fief, these people want to go further, and they can only rely on their own abilities.
When the fleet crossed the steel bridge stained with silver, Roland heard the surprised gasps of nobles behind him.
A group of people couldn’t help holding their breath, silently watching the iron bridge across the river passing over their heads.
The prince couldn’t help but feel a little amused, since this group of people have been sighing since they boarded the boat.
At first, I was amazed at how the hull made of stone could float on the water, and then I was very curious about the rotating paddle wheel and the steam engine emitting white mist.
It’s a pity that the three-way project in the town has not been completed, he thought maliciously, otherwise when these people see the bright and stable lights, their eyes will definitely pop out.
With the sound of the whistle, the ship slowly docked beside the pier.
And Barov, Carter, and a group of city hall officials who had received the “Flying Pigeon Messenger” had been waiting for a long time on the shore. The etiquette of the king made a welcome ceremony.
Roland smiled and patted the shoulders of the two, then brought Barov to the presence of many nobles in the fortress, and introduced them to each other.
“The accommodation, living and study of these people will be arranged by you,” he whispered close to the head manager’s ear, “don’t worry about their identities and titles, at most they are just barons, what’s in the mine There are people, but they still can’t work honestly. Just train them in the same way as fresh graduates, and I want to see the effect as soon as possible.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Back in the castle, the witches who heard the news had already gathered in the hall. Roland had just stepped through the gate, and before he had time to feel the long-awaited heat, a warm body fell into his chest.
Smelling the familiar fragrance from his hair, he smiled and patted the other person’s head, “I’m back.”
“Well,” Anna raised her head, waves in her lake-blue eyes, “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time Yes
.”
“I want it too!”
“And I’m going!”
Soon Roland felt that there was an extra weight on both sides of his arms… No need to look, he knew that there would be no other people except Lightning and Maggie. The witch disturbed him to embrace Anna at such a time.
“Hey, you all went with him, okay?” Mystery Moon shouted.
“That’s right,” Lily snorted, “I’m not ashamed!”
“As long as you all come back safely,” Wendy laughed softly.
“We have to celebrate tonight,” Shujuan suggested.
“Oh! I want ice cream bread!” Andrea cheered, “With Ashes and Shavi, I want to serve a big plate!”
Tilly Wimbledon came up last.
She stretched out her hand and said with a relaxed expression, “Thanks for your hard work.”
“Thank you,” Roland raised the corner of his mouth and held the hand offered by the other party.
…
After the sumptuous dinner, Roland returned to the office and heaved a sigh of relief.
Although the stronghold’s castle was much larger, it was the small place that made him feel more comfortable.

Just as he was about to sort out the books brought from the fortress, Anna opened the door and walked in.
“You came just in time.” Roland pointed to the books piled on the carpet, “Look, this is a gift I brought you. Most of them are historical records and legends, as well as some secrets of the West, all from the Duke’s study Moved out. By the way, this is—”
Before he could finish speaking, he felt a pair of soft lips touch him.
There is a little burning in the fragrance, and the dryness is mixed with the moist breath.
“I miss you so much.” After parting, Anna looked into his eyes calmly and said word by word.
Looking at the rippling eyes of the other party, Roland felt a surge of heat in his heart.
“This book…”
“I can read it later.”
“I think so.” The
two kissed again.
