Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 270 The Granary of the Nobles

The king was quite reasonable and allowed Manda to return to his residence first and bring a few of his subordinates with him.

Manda returned to the mansion, took the whole family with her, and prepared to run away.

I can't stay in the royal capital anymore. I will discuss the plan to vacate the royal capital later. Anyway, I have moved a lot. My life may not be easy in the future. The king will probably want me, but it is much better than dying here.

Arriving outside the city and throwing away the following guards, Manda was about to lead everyone away when he was suddenly blocked by a group of people.

It was Leo and his men. He was still alive and slightly injured, but he didn't seem to be serious.

Regardless of the purpose, if he wanted to prevent Manda from escaping, Manda would kill him without hesitation.

Looking at each other for a moment, Leo coughed and said, "You can't leave yet."

Well, now that you've said that, I have no choice.

Just as Manda was about to take action, he suddenly heard the refugee leader Kams shouting: "Look who is this? This is the big boss from the capital. They just finished killing people and came to pretend to pity us. Brothers and sisters, pick up the Use your weapons to kill this hypocrite!"

Manda panicked slightly, but quickly calmed down. Kams kept shouting, but not many people responded to him. More people were watching, huddled together with blood all over their bodies, trembling and watching.

Just as Manda thought, they saw blood and learned something from blood, but they didn't expect that they learned so much.

This gave Manda some confidence. He walked up to Camus and said with a fierce look in his eyes: "I heard that you want to kill me?"

"I, I want to avenge the dead..." Losing his former composure and arrogance, Camus looked around and stepped back. He was looking for Bucken, but Manda didn't give him a chance.

He pulled out the Sword of Judgment and chopped off Kamus' head with one blow. The refugees screamed in surprise, but no one dared to step forward.

This was a good state. It not only calmed Manda down, but also temporarily gave up the idea of ​​​​escape.

The only remaining threat is Bucken. If even Bucken learns to be afraid, the next thing will be much easier to handle.

It's a pity that Bucken didn't learn to be afraid. When he climbed down the city wall from Manda, Bucken noticed him. Tonight's plan failed, but it would be a consolation if he could take advantage of the chaos and kill this thorn in his side.

The situation was somewhat unsatisfactory. The refugees were frightened and could not create a chance for him to attack. Bucken did not want to fight with Manda Hard Steel, let alone expose the army. He also wanted to guard against a surprise attack by the guards on the city.

Bucken walked up to Manda, looked at Kams's body, gritted his teeth and said, "Is the killing not over yet? How many lives do you want to take away?"

Manda is a little tired of Bucken's routine of criticizing her every time she opens her mouth.

"I used the sword of judgment given to me by the king to kill a person who deserved to be killed."

"How many more people should be killed here? Go ahead, we'll wait for you to kill them!" Bucken was still trying to arouse the refugees' anger, but Manda didn't want to take this trick. He could see Bucken's nervousness and worry.

He withdrew the sword of judgment and shouted loudly: "All those who have survived until now, you have been favored by the gods! If you still want to live until tomorrow, if you want to live forever, come to me and follow me. A place where you can live!"

Bucken could no longer sit idly by as the order he had gained through brainwashing was completely defeated by this killing.

"Don't believe the king's lies, let alone those treacherous and vicious ministers, they will lead you to hell!"

The louder Bucken's voice sounded, the more panic he felt inside. Manda looked around. Some people wanted to move closer to him, but looking at Bucken's face, they needed more courage.

Leo stood up and conveyed his courage to everyone: "You are the children of the Lord! You have received the blessing of the Lord. Follow this man and leave here!"

The refugees looked at each other in silence for a long time. Finally, a man took the child and ran to Manda.

This man is Guatel, and that child is Toca. In the night, no one can see their faces clearly. Under their leadership, the refugees came to Manda one after another.

Bucken looked at Leo, anger burst out of his eyes: "You are blaspheming the Lord, you will be punished by the Lord!"

"You are the one who blasphemed the Lord!" Leo looked back at Bucken, "The blood on the ground is the evidence of your crime!"

In three days, Manda sent more than 20,000 people to Mount Bergemia. In addition to the nearly 10,000 people killed by Longgesen, there were less than 20,000 people under the city.

These 20,000 people were not easy to deal with. They became Bucken's diehard loyalists. They ignored all the promises made by Manda. They only believed in the food they got from Bucken.

Food is the key to gaining trust. They walked all the way from the south, and countless people starved to death on the way. As long as they had a full meal, they could gain their trust.

But Manda ran out of food on hand, and all he could do was draw big cakes. The big cakes didn't work anymore. He told the king the situation. As long as he opened the granary, he was sure to send all the refugees to Bei. Mount Gemia.

"What happens after we send them away?" The king didn't want to keep raising this group of refugees. He didn't want to take out another grain of food from the granary.

Manda didn't want to sound too vicious, but he had to give the king a satisfactory answer: "Give them some food and let them fend for themselves in the abandoned town."

The king frowned and said: "When the food is exhausted, they will return to the royal capital. By then, won't all their previous efforts be in vain?"

Manda whispered: "Starting from that town, there is only one road that can leave Bergemia Mountain. Let the soldiers guard that road. It is impossible for unarmed refugees to leave alive."

The king hissed and looked at Manda in surprise. He was silent for a moment and then suddenly smiled and said: "It's a very good idea. That's it. We'll open the granary early tomorrow morning and distribute ten pounds of food to each refugee. This will be enough for them to survive until the end of the sea." Gohmia Mountain."

Manda let out a sigh of relief, the refugee crisis was over.

But before he finished speaking, the Minister of State spoke again: "I don't agree with the Chief Sheriff's idea."

Manda rubbed his eyebrows, he had already foreseen the direction of things.

The king looked at the minister of state and said, "Tell me your reasons."

"The current situation is still dangerous. Once a war breaks out, how long can the king survive without food? Besides, if we distribute food to the refugees, more refugees will flock to the capital, which will make our situation even worse!"

Longsen said: "Do you have a better way?"

Manda almost laughed. The Minister of State must have a better way. As long as he comes up with a way, it will definitely be recognized by everyone.

The Minister of State nodded and said: "Let the Chief Sheriff continue to persuade the refugees. There are still many abandoned farmlands in Begmea. Let them farm, let them hunt in the mountains and forests, let them fish in the rivers, and let them use their own Feed yourself with your sweat.”

Farming? It's late summer now, can I still grow yarn?

Is hunting and fishing that easy? How can a group of hungry and weak-footed refugees find the energy to hunt?

Ten thousand mythical beasts rushed through Manda's heart, but Manda smiled and said nothing.

He returned to the outside of the city and saw Leo who was looking at him.

"Has the king promised to open the granary?"

Manda shook his head and said: "Not yet."

Leo frowned, bit his lip and said, "The archbishop has promised me that we can open the church's granary first, but our food is limited and we won't be able to sustain it for long."

Manda nodded and said: "The granary in the royal capital cannot be opened, but I know where the noble's granary is. Let's borrow some from them first."

"Do nobles have granaries?" Leo looked puzzled.

Manda took out a map with the ministers' foreign residences marked on it: "It's not convenient for me to take action, but it's different for you. I can help you secretly."
