"So rich …"
Under the dilapidated manor, flames burned and spread everywhere.
The sounds of fighting could be heard, and there seemed to be pained cries and howls.
In front of him, he could see Black Hairs Human s with black fur all over their bodies diligently moving small boxes out and slowly walking out from inside.
Krudo looked at the boxes being carried out and could not help but deeply sigh.
"Of course."
Looking at him like this, Chen Heng smiled, "Different from the northern rulers, the rulers in the Kutu Royal City are all top-tier families, or else they would not be able to establish themselves here."
After all, the Kutu Royal City was the Kutu Royal City, and those who could establish themselves here were all top-tier people in the Kutu Royal City.
Families like these naturally did not lack money.
"After destroying three families at once, I'm sure those people will be more well-behaved."
Looking at the sounds of fighting, Chen Heng spoke calmly with a cold expression.
Even though he had come to an agreement with most people in the Kutu Royal City, everyone had different thoughts, and it was impossible to hope that everyone would cooperate.
Normally, as long as they did not go too far, Chen Heng would endure it.
However, for those who went too far, Chen Heng's methods were quite simple.
In just one night, three families had been destroyed by the northern side's army, and all of their people in the Kutu Royal City had been captured.
The original behemoth had disappeared in just one night.
Their people had been captured and turned into slaves, and their wealth and land had been confiscated. Everything they had accumulated over many years had disappeared.
Chen Heng used these three families' fates to tell everyone what the consequences of opposing him were.
However, different from what ordinary people thought, Chen Heng was quite satisfied with these people who had jumped out.
The ancients often said that one had to use kindness and might. In order to do something well, just having good conditions was not enough; one also needed to have enough prestige.
These three families were the ones that Chen Heng wanted to use to establish his might.
After killing them, not only would he be able to establish his might and intimidate the remaining people, but he would also be able to get rid of the unstable elements in the city.
The wealth he obtained from them would be able to resolve some of Chen Heng's problems.
At the very least, he would not have to worry about future rewards for now.
"How's the reorganization of the army?"
Looking at the manor, Chen Heng's expression was calm as he came back to his senses and looked at Krudo.
"It's already starting."
Krudo nodded, "According to your orders, no matter if it is the nobles' soldiers or Mader's 3,000 soldiers, they have all been disrupted and reorganized into new groups."
"The officers are all our soldiers."
"That's good."
Hearing this, Chen Heng nodded.
The nobles' subordinates were too heavily influenced by them. Even though they had given them to Chen Heng, as long as they gave the order, they would immediately leave him.
Just like the northern rulers' armies, he could not completely control them.
After all, they were allies and could barely be considered reliable. However, these people couldn't let their guard down at all.
As such, Chen Heng did not hesitate to disperse them.
He used his own army as the foundation and took out a large number of soldiers to form this army of 7,000 to help Chen Heng control this army.
In this way, he could increase his control as much as possible while maintaining his combat power.
"The south has sent messengers."
Looking at Chen Heng, Carey suddenly said, "The rebel army in the south is wreaking havoc, and many rulers are asking for reinforcements from the Kutu Royal City."
"Should we send reinforcements?"
"No need."
Chen Heng shook his head, "Now is not the right time."
Right now, he had only just entered the Kutu Royal City and had many things to do.
For example, the army's training, equipment, and other things had not been completed yet.
It would take some time for Chen Heng's army to fully integrate and form their battle power.
When that time came, it would be time to attack.
"If we don't send reinforcements, aren't we afraid that they will also rebel?"
By the side, Krudo raised an objection and could not help but feel confused.
Hearing this, before Chen Heng could say anything, Carey laughed.
"Not everyone has the right to surrender to the rebel army," Wang Chong said coldly.
"What do you mean?"
Krudo frowned, feeling quite confused.
Carey looked at him, and seeing that Chen Heng did not say anything, he continued, "Why did the rebel army in the south rebel and want to invade the Kutu Royal City?
Could it be that they really just want to overthrow Her Majesty's rule and have no other goals? "
Before Krudo could reply, Carey continued, "Of course not.
"Their initial goal is actually the same as ours. It's nothing more than land, wealth, and slaves."
As such, they can't accept everyone's surrender. "
He looked at Krudo as he said calmly.
Hearing this, Krudo frowned. He seemed to understand, but he still did not quite understand.
Seeing him like this, Chen Heng inwardly shook his head.
The reasoning was quite simple.
The Lords of the South rebelled for nothing more than territory and wealth.
These things could not be conjured out of thin air.
If they wanted to obtain these things, they could only take them from others.
Those who had been plundered would not be willing either; they would not allow their territory to be taken away for nothing.
This was why those people had come to the Kutu Royal City to ask for reinforcements instead of directly rebelling.
At the end of the day, if the rebel army had allowed the feudal lords to maintain their territories and not deprive them of their inherent rights, it was guaranteed that the feudal lords wouldn't have fought so desperately and wouldn't have been able to fight the rebel army to this point.
It was a pity that this was not possible.
The rebel army had been fighting for territory and wealth.
If they could not obtain anything, what was the point of fighting? Why would they rebel?
This was the fundamental contradiction, and it was impossible for the rebel army to accept everyone.
Some people had to lose something in this situation so that others could become stronger.
It was because he understood this that Chen Heng did not panic at all.
Even if he did not do anything, in order to ensure that they did not lose their territory, the rulers would fight to the death. Unless the rebel army was willing to keep everything they had, perhaps most of their rights, they would not change sides.
Otherwise, they would be Olivia's staunchest defenders.
Having these people fight with the rebel army and wear each other down was what Chen Heng wanted to do.
Of course, even though he understood all of this, he still had to do some things.
Otherwise, if these people fell too quickly, they would not be able to wear down the rebel army.
"Use Her Majesty's name to tell them not to persist."
Looking at Carey, Chen Heng said calmly, "After that, use my name to give them food and weapons so that they can last for a while longer.
"Tell them that as long as they can last for another month, I will send an army to help them."
Hearing Chen Heng's words, Carey felt quite startled before coming to his senses.
"How is Her Majesty doing?"
Standing there and looking at the scenery, Chen Heng suddenly asked.
