System: Build My Own Territory-Chapter 770 - 254: The Fall of Frank Manor

The manor castle can completely serve as the management center for land development and agricultural growth, radiating outwards.

Even.

There’s no need to build more red brick houses for the farmers responsible for cultivating and planting on this farmland.

Thinking of this.

Lynn had a preliminary plan for the future development of Morgan Town.

With a flicker in his eyes, he activated the [Holographic Map] to take a look.

Seeing the map scene that still only included the territory beyond the city wall, Lynn couldn’t help but frown.

He cleared all forces in Morgan Town and occupied it.

[The Holographic Map] still did not expand its field of view.

Soon.

Lynn thought of something.

The current territory he holds was granted by the original Marquis Donovan Ducas.

And the territory of Morgan Town was seized through war and is not considered a legitimate possession. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Therefore.

That’s why the [Holographic Map] doesn’t display the scene of Morgan Town.

This was the only reason Lynn could think of.

In other words.

He needs to acquire ownership of this territory!

Following the reasoning.

With the current situation of the Karedi Empire.

With his current status.

Obtaining the grant of Morgan Town from Marquis Duca is more difficult than ascending to the heavens.

Lynn even feels.

It’s better to bury himself in developing the territory and enhancing military power.

To overthrow the Ducas Clan and take their place.

That would be much easier!

Lynn glanced at the bottom of the city wall.

Under the supervision of a team of soldiers.

A group of peasants drove carts and ox carts, or carried goods on their shoulders, heading outside the castle.

After watching for a while.

Lynn led Lynn down the steps and came to the entrance of the castle.

The soldiers quickly led up the warhorse.

Lynn reached out to take the reins, placed his left foot on the stirrup, and agilely mounted the horse.

Slightly nudging Mo Ying’s horse’s belly, Mo Ying understood and began to move toward the outside of the castle.

Red, who also mounted a warhorse, immediately followed.

Riding atop the warhorse, Lynn joined the ranks of the peasants.

His gaze swept over a group of peasants.

On the faces of most peasants, there was numbness and calm.

Apparently.

As peasants, they had long been accustomed to their current life.

The fall of Frank Manor had little to do with them.

It merely meant being transferred from one manor lord to another lord.

Their status as peasants wouldn’t change.

After a short walk.

Lynn and the others arrived near Morgan Town.

Rose, who had been waiting, saw Lynn under the torchlight.

Without any hesitation, he urged his warhorse to approach Lynn.

Coming to Lynn’s side.

Rose respectfully said, "Master!"

Lynn pondered for a moment and spoke to Rose, "Is the personnel count for Morgan Town completed?"

Rose didn’t hesitate, replying, "Yes, Master."

"In Morgan Town, consisting of free people, young and old, there are 3,200 people!"

"The Blade Wind Corps hired mercenaries who surrendered and laid down their arms number three hundred."

"A total of 3,500 people!"

Lynn nodded, "How about the food supply?"

Rose hesitated slightly before speaking, "Master, the food from the ordinary residents of the town has been completely searched."

"There is a large quantity that needs to be weighed and measured after returning to the territory to determine the exact amount."

"However..."

Lynn said, "Speak freely."

Rose nodded, "However, Master, there are some merchants from Mr. Boer’s Merchant Guild in Morgan Town."

"Because of your relationship with Mr. Boer, I stopped the soldiers from raiding the merchants."

"And those merchants said they have always assisted Boer in trading activities with you."

"They hope you can return the gold pounds their mercenaries robbed from them."

Listening to Rose’s explanation, Lynn instantly understood.

"Is Boer not in Morgan Town?"

Rose shook his head, "The guild merchants said Mr. Boer hasn’t returned yet."

Lynn continued, "Ask them to report these matters to Boer and have him come talk to me."

"Exclude the merchants and families from Boer’s Merchant Guild."

"All remaining food supplies and free people, bring them back to the territory!"

Rose responded, "Yes, Master!"

As the words fell.

Rose quickly pulled the reins and rode toward the front of Morgan Town.

Shortly after.

Likewise, under the soldiers’ escort, groups of free people and prisoners from the Blade Wind Corps began to leave Morgan Town.

Compared to the numbness and calm of the peasants.

The faces of these free people were filled with terror.

They wanted to resist, to argue for the rights free people should have.

However.

When they saw the squads of soldiers in standard armor and the winged spears in their hands.

All the free people chose to give up.

They knew this was a powerful standard army!

Under Lynn’s watchful gaze.

The peasant team from Frank Manor and the free people team from Morgan Town moved one after the other in the direction of his territory.

The sheer number of people and the length of the procession was such that he almost couldn’t see the end.

Fortunately.

The sky, which was pitch black not long ago, gradually lightened to a grayish hue.

Dawn was breaking.

Summoning Earl, he instructed him to lead a squad of one hundred soldiers to guard Morgan Town.

And instructed him that if faced with a large number of regular troops, he must retreat at the first instance.

Lynn rode his horse, following the long procession back to his territory.
