Chapter 696

~7 min read 1,385 words

The cold wind-whistling North, Count Count Celingen territory.

Widow's Watch.

A naturally formed port, the Dawn slowly docked at the shore.

When the fluttering black dragon flag appeared, the soldiers originally stationed there immediately stepped forward excitedly, "It's the Earl, the Earl is back!"

"Lord Earl is back!"

Excited voices sounded; the soldiers immediately ran forward, their eyes full of eager looks.

Walking down from the Dawn, Zhang Cheng looked at the soldiers before him and also raised his hand with a smile to signal.

"Lord Earl!"

Joyful shouting, the soldiers' faces were full of excited looks.

"Long time no see, my people, I am very happy to see you!"

Revealing a smile, Zhang Cheng walked down amidst the crowd.

However, compared to the soldiers of the Count Count Celingen family, the slaves who were working revealed fierce looks.

Because they still remembered that it was this man who brought them here back then, turning them into slaves, and even unable to leave hell for a lifetime!

"Buddy, this is a chance, otherwise we won't be able to see him again!"

Looking at the mud-brother beside him, a slave couldn't help but speak up.

And hearing his words, the others revealed fearful looks, because they still remembered how the Count Count Celingen family handled rebellions!

All slaves would be hanged; even if you didn't participate, you would be implicated, and simply no one could survive!

"What are you waiting for? Do you want to be slaves for a lifetime? We were born free!"

Speaking with indignation, the mud-brother's words immediately made many slaves agree.

Because here, they were simply like being in hell; not only could they not eat their fill, but even after death, they would be sprinkled into the soil as fertilizer, without any dignity, as if they were garbage!

Riding on a horse, Zhang Cheng waved his hand, greeting the soldiers of the Count Count Celingen family.

Looking at their burly appearance, Zhang Cheng knew that over the years, the Count Count Celingen family hadn't given up on military preparations.

Even when guarding slaves, they were enhancing their combat capabilities!

But just when everything was very peaceful, a sharpened wooden thorn was thrown out.

"Careful, there's a rebellion, protect Lord Earl!"

Seeing the wooden thorn appear, many soldiers drew the shields behind their backs, firmly protecting Zhang Cheng in the center.

There were also attendant knights intending to pull him off the horse, but they were stopped by Zhang Cheng.

"Clatter!"

Just as countless long spears appeared, Zhang Cheng grabbed the most threatening one with his backhand, then threw it on the ground with disdain.

Looking at the slaves before him, Zhang Cheng said coldly, "Kill them all, leave none!"

"Kill them all, leave none!"

Roaring severely, the attendant knight immediately drew the longsword at his waist and roared.

And hearing the order from the Earl, the soldiers of the Count Count Celingen family roared one after another.

Just as the soldiers, like a military formation, stepped forward, a very burly man rushed out from among the slaves and roared, "Charge, kill the demons before us, we will regain our freedom..."

"For freedom!"

Raising the iron pickaxes in their hands, the slaves roared one after another.

Looking at the scene before him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but narrow his eyes, "It seems this batch of slaves has no brains at all! They've forgotten how I slaughtered the previous batch of slaves six years ago!"

"Sorry, Lord Earl, I don't know how they became so crazy, but please rest assured, I will definitely handle it well!" Flying to Zhang Cheng's side, the knight responsible for managing the slaves immediately spoke up.

And hearing his words, Zhang Cheng said indifferently, "I don't need the process, you just need to tell me the result!"

"Yes, Lord Earl!"

Raising his head, after the knight finished listening to Zhang Cheng's words, he immediately became incomparably cold.

You must know, in the Count Count Celingen family, knight selection is very strict; apart from having military experience, one even has to make contributions on the battlefield.

This is also why Zhang Cheng would distribute the attendant knights around him.

Because they had already obtained knight honor; although they didn't have fiefs, they had the qualifications to participate in the military appointments of the Count Count Celingen family!

This is just like the ministers assigned in ancient times, responsible for managing a place, possessing a certain degree of autonomy, but the management power is still in Zhang Cheng's hands; they are only responsible for military affairs!

"Kill them all, leave none, I want their blood to dye the entire sea red!"

Roaring, the knight turned around and drew the longsword at his waist.

And just as the soldiers of the Count Count Celingen family became serious, the originally rebellious slaves immediately couldn't hold on.

After all, there is a gap between a regular army and a rogue army, and they didn't have matching weapons.

Wearing shackles on their hands, fighting with fully armed soldiers, did they really think they were Spartacus in the Roman Empire's Colosseum?

Even if they were Spartacus, Zhang Cheng's Count Count Celingen family was not Rome!

Their family possessed stronger combativeness than Rome!

After three hours of fighting, the entire port was dyed blood red.

Watching the slaves kneeling on the ground begin to beg for mercy, and even wail in pain, the soldiers of the Count Count Celingen family didn't show mercy, but chopped off their heads without hesitation.

Because in the family, as the Earl, Zhang Cheng absolutely cannot have problems, because he still doesn't have "offspring" yet! But they rebelled one after another, which made the management knight somewhat annoyed.

Because you aren't even putting eye drops on him, you are dripping chili oil!

If he doesn't kill all these slaves who participated in the rebellion at once, wouldn't the slaves in the future follow suit?

Watching the rolling heads fall to the ground, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but reveal a smile, "Look, this is the price of freedom. May the Seven bless them, they will definitely enjoy it in hell!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, the attendant knight beside him fell silent.

What the hell, enjoying freedom in hell?

"Let the family bring slaves from Braavos and other free cities as soon as possible to make up for the vacancy!"

!

Turning his head to look at the person beside him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but speak up.

"Yes, Earl, we will handle it as soon as possible!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, the knight hurriedly spoke.

Because compared to managing slaves, they were more proficient in how to plunder!

After all, the Greyjoy family's "We Do Not Sow" was also very suitable for the Count Count Celingen family!

However, compared to the brainless Greyjoy, the Count Count Celingen family was smarter, because they never left any witnesses!

Zhang Cheng: If there are no witnesses, can you point fingers?

Greyjoy:.

Winterfell, Zhang Cheng finally saw Eddard here, but compared to six years ago, Eddard was much older at this time.

Looking at the man who was still in his prime, Eddard couldn't help but be shocked, "Luo Sai?"

"Isn't it me?"

Stepping forward with a big laugh, Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows.

"Where have you been these six years? Andrew said you went to the East. What did you see there?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, Eddard couldn't help but be surprised.

"I discovered a continent there; it's called Middle-earth, it's a very beautiful place, you will like it!"

Explaining to Eddard, Zhang Cheng looked at Catelyn leading the children out.

Looking at Robb Stark standing in the front, who was now exactly six years old, Sansa was three, looking at Zhang Cheng with curiosity, as for Arya, she was one year old, held in Catelyn's arms.

Looking at his children, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but tease, "You truly have both a son and a daughter now!"

However, after saying this, Zhang Cheng looked at the boy in the distance; he was behind the crowd, not appearing at all, and he was the son of Lyanna and Rhaegar, Jon Snow.

As for why Zhang Cheng recognized him, it was because Jon Snow's eyes were the same as his damn father's!
