The Sage of Einar

Chapter 431 - Emergency Measures For Famine



During the following days, Einar was in charge of supervising all the villages that were in the barony that made up the capital of the kingdom of Thomond.

In those villages most of the time he only found corpses, however he was able to find some survivors, mostly children who had survived through the sacrifice of their mothers.

Einar personally took care of feeding them because the children would eat until they felt satiated. That could be extremely dangerous because when one stops eating for a long time.

He cannot overload his stomach otherwise he would end up dead. He felt some sadness when the children stared at him.

Because of the hunger that he had they could not bear the urge to want to eat even more, Einar simply sighed at those times and did his best to keep the children\'s minds awake.

It was during those days that the messenger from the Kingdom of Ireland arrived to inform them that they were having a food crisis because of the large number of refugees that were arriving.

Einar, seeing that he had no choice, sent the plans to his father-in-law for a trawler, with which the fishermen could get food.

He also sent out a few formulas, so that his father-in-law could use the salt they had on hand to create salty fish. That way, they could have too much food for all the new refugees.

When Einar\'s messenger arrived in Dublin, Vilhelm ordered all of his artisans to modify all the large fishing boats in the kingdom so they could be converted into trawlers.

The artisans then began a titanic task of being able to change the vast majority of the boats in just one week.

To prevent a crisis from breaking out, Vilhelm used his food reserve to feed the refugees, who were not receiving free food.

Well, all of them had to work mainly in the fields or in the construction of roads. You are a measure in which the kingdom won because it would have a cheap labor force which it could only use by paying with food.

While that was happening in the capital in the Thomond kingdom, Einar was dealing with the survivors of the barony of Nenagh.

Which were in a worse state than in the Barony of Luimneach and Kilmallock, this because who dominated the territory was a group of bandits.

They had managed to assassinate the guards of the barony and, using the lack of power they had entered the castle to assassinate them all.

Then the bandit leader declared himself king, so using force and fear he created a kind of horrible prison where he had absolute control.

Unfortunately for the supposed bandit king, the Nordic army was an established and fully functioning force which quickly conquered the barony town by town.

Completely killing the bandits which having made a reign of terror in which women and girls suffered the most.

As punishment for the things they had done, Einar beheaded them and created a path of impaled heads which had wooden signs with the things they had done.

That was quite shocking to some of the survivors, but no one dared to defend the damn bandits who had been abusing them.

After a few days, he managed to erase the bandits from the villages, leaving only the bandits at Nenagh Castle.

When the Nordic army besieged that castle, the bandits did everything possible to defend themselves until the last moment, so they tried to carry out some nocturnal attacks.

But they were all killed by snipers. This upset Einar a lot, because for three days they had been trying to escape like rats.

So he decided to use chlorine gas against that scum to eliminate them, this mainly because he knew that most of those inside were bandits.

To start with the flask launch, Einar personally placed the flask with the green gas on the catapult and after calibrating the catapult he ordered everyone to release the chlorine gas.

When the jars started flying, the bandits just watched them fall without knowing why the hell they were throwing glass jars at them.

Although they doubt would be resolved when one of them approached a green mist that had come out of one of those jars that had been broken near where he was.

The bandit when smelling that substance watered from his eyes, he also tried to scream because he was feeling how part of his skin was burning.

But all of his actions were completely useless due to what was left lying on the ground as he slowly died.

The bandits then tried to run outside, but when they opened the doors, they realized that there was a green mist outside them, so they quickly closed it.

The chaos was not long in being generated inside the castle as they all tried to escape from the green mist, so many of them in a desperate act jumped from the walls to the ground.

Unfortunately for them, it did not matter if they survived because the snipers were in charge of ending their lives with an accurate shot to the head.

The bandit leader takes refuge inside the castle, believing that it was a safe area, but what he did not know was that the entire upper part of the castle was filled with chlorine gas.

From what he with horror, he watched as the green gas came down from the top of the castle. It was at that moment that he placed his hands around his neck, as he could feel how he was short of air.

Not only that, but he looked with his eyes completely irritated as his skin began to burn in some areas, but he could not do anything.

It was a completely silent death, yet he made her reflect on all the things he had done throughout his life before he died.

Einar just sighed when he saw the green mist start shooting up into the air, unlike the first time he used it. This time, he did it to kill bandits.

Who had committed a lot of atrocities, which deserved to be punished, so he simply ordered his army to wait a day before entering to clean the castle.
