Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 96: Mercenary and Iron Armor

Chapter 96 Hiring Mercenary and Iron Armor

Sixty-seven surrendered hired Mercenarys are gathering for dinner in the open space in front of the manor castle. The food to eat is simple, that is, two slices of black bread and a bowl of broth. It's just that this broth has a large barrel, whoever wants to drink the bowl wants to go to the spoon.

When Lorist and Joske passed, the two hired Mercenary greeted them.

Joske introduced: "The older one is called Hausky, and the golden beard behind is called Jim. They are now the heads of these Mercenary hires."

Hausky and Jim came up to pay tribute to Lorist and Joske. Lorist waved and said, "Forget it, you two will come into the castle with us, and talk about the disposal of Mercenary for you."

After entering the castle, Lorist found a room nearby and took two hires Mercenary to go in. After everyone took a seat, Lorist was also polite and said, "Although you are hiring Mercenary to take the initiative to surrender, I am actually very troubled. What to do with you. Killing is unethical, and if you do n’t kill us, we have to waste manpower to take care of you. After all, you have all awakened Battle Qi, at least it is Black Iron Rank. If you say that you will trust us, we ca n’t believe your loyalty, otherwise You will not surrender so easily ... "

The two employed Mercenary turned red, but had nothing to say, because Lorist said the truth.

"Killing cannot kill, letting you go and I'm not reconciled. Maybe you let it go for two days or less. You are hired by our enemies and you want to meet us in front of each other. Then, why don't we ask for ourselves? Trouble? I do n’t have that much manpower to take care of you, thinking about it, I think I still have to pay for it myself ... ”Lorist said.

The two leaders who hired Mercenary looked up in surprise: "Large, Lord(s), do you want to hire us?"

"Yes," Lorist nodded: "But rest assured, I did n’t hire you to let you deal with your old employer. I believe you do n’t have that face, and you do n’t want to. If I force you, you will definitely If you don't work hard, I have to worry about whether you will fight back. "

The two leaders who hired Mercenary bowed their heads a little bit embarrassed. It was obvious that Lorist said that they were in their minds. The older Hausky also experienced more. He quickly looked up and asked: "Lord(s), what do you want to hire us for?"

"Come, get a Territory map." Lorist shouted.

Lorist put the Territory map on the table and signaled the two Mercenary bosses to come and take a look: "This is our family's manor castle, this is North Wild Town. We are going to be in this place, there is a small river on the poplar beach A new town is built here. I believe you also know that Northern Land often has mountains Barbarians Clan here, and those savages like to plunder the mountains. In order to prevent us from being attacked by mountains Barbarians Clan when we build new towns, I decided to here, too It is the establishment of a military cottage at the intersection of the two mountains, as the first line of defense against the mountain Barbarians Clan. "

"The purpose of hiring you is to keep you in this military village. Of course, I won't ask you to do what you can't do. If there are many people in the mountain Barbarians Clan, you will stick to the military village and ignite wolf smoke to send us a message. We will send reinforcements. If there are few people in Mountain Barbarians Clan, then you will directly destroy them. With your rank of Silver and Black Iron Battle Qi, it should be more than enough to deal with these savages. Of course, I will not let you do nothing, a living mountain Barbarians Clan Savage, we have a Empire old man's gold coin(s) reward. If it dies, there are only fifty Empire silver coin(s). "

The two hired Mercenary leaders looked at each other. Hausky asked: "Can we go to that mountain pass to see the terrain first? Also, Lord(s), what kind of military village do you want to build?"

"Of course you can see the terrain. You can also decide on the location of the military village. As for the military village, you can rest assured. We will not fool you. If you want to build it, it will be strong and durable. This time it came with caravan. One hundred barrels of Gum Cane Juice I am going to use in the construction of this military camp. "Lorist said.

"Okay, we have taken this job." Hausky said, "But Lord(s), how do we calculate our salary?"

Lorist laughed: "Rest assured, I'm more generous than Viscount Kenmays, Empire old man head gold coin(s) per month in Silver Rank, 50 Empire silver coin(s) per month in Black Iron Rank. If you catch or kill Shan Barbarians Clan, the bounty will be given separately. This employment agreement We sign for one year first. After one year, you can renew your contract or leave at will. In addition, it is not urgent to build a military cottage. It will take about ten days. We also need to prepare labor and supplies. But if you are today If the agreement is signed, the salary will be calculated from this month. "

Hausky and Jim jumped up from their chairs: "Lord(s), willing to work for you."

"Well, since this is the case, I will have someone come to sign an agreement with you. After signing the two of you, you will take the Mercenary and go to Huyang Beach to set up camp. I will let someone take you, and the supply will also be sent. The past. "Lorist said.

"But Lord(s), we need weapons and equipment, and horses ..." Hausky said humblely.

Lorist patted his own brain, why did he forget that these hired Mercenary were all their captives, and they were all confiscated except this set of clothes on their bodies: "Well, after you sign the agreement, You can choose the weapons you are good at. In addition, I will provide you with 30 sets of chain mail, 50 sets of leather armor, and 50 mounts and 4 carts. These things will be recorded first, and you can pay them with loot and captives. , As well as those clothes, bedding, camp tents and other miscellaneous things, we will give them away for free, can you see? "

Hausky and Jim are overjoyed, bowing deeply at Lorist: "Lord(s), your kindness and generosity are like the sun in the sky, warming our body and soul of these humble hires Mercenary ..."

"Get off! Shut me up if you don't make a flattery. Do you think you can change the words of Higwa's carol on me? Can't you hear me? Supervisor Hansk, come here to take these two **** away, and those who hire Mercenary signing an agreement will bother you. Signing the agreement will ask Speer stewards to give them weapons and equipment ... "

After the two hired Mercenary bosses to leave, Lorist breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally one thing is done. Go, Joe, I'll take you to see Old Manager Kress."

...

At night, in the study, Lorist and Joske are talking about some of the problems facing the family while drinking the family's precious wine. Of course, Lorist can't help complaining. Some things are taken for granted in Morante City, but they can be found in family Territory. But here is apostasy, which makes Lorist very uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

"Sometimes I really do n’t understand. The family has fallen to this point and still embracing the tradition. Did n’t you see it when we went to see Old Manager? Old Manager even blamed me for not letting that much Both servants and employees have the opportunity to learn how to awaken Battle Qi. He said that the family previously rewarded loyal servants and employees by sending people to teach them to awaken Battle Qi, and then to improve their status. Like me, I taught all servants and The awakening of Battle Qi is to subvert the tradition. In fact, I ca n’t wait for a maid to awaken Battle Qi. How else can I improve the strength of the family? Two or three servants and hired workers are rewarded each year to learn to awaken Battle Qi. There is a fart ... "

Lorist seems to be drinking a bit too much, speaking a little rudely.

Knocking sounded, Lorist said, "Come in."

Patt came in and said, "Lord(s), Speer and Supervisor Hansk are here."

Lorist touched his face hard, so that he could be more awake: "Please come in."

Lorist did not expect that the Speer director and Supervisor Hansk came to protest, because Lorist today generously allocated 30 sets of iron chain armor to hire Mercenary, which made the two directors distressed.

"Lord(s), Northern Land iron armor is so precious, many families are treasured and easily reluctant to take out. Even if we have 170 sets, you can immediately pay 30 for Mercenary hires This is really too generous and wasteful. Lord(s), do you see if you can get those iron chains back? "Speer said with a look of dismay.

Lorist and Joske looked at each other, and they couldn't help laughing, especially Lorist. They even laughed forward and backward, giving the two directors a smile.

I finally managed to stop smiling, Lorist said, "Okay, that's all for now, don't mention it again. Speer manager, you have to understand that these iron armors are actually the most common equipment. If you go Looking at the castle site on the other side of the Morgen Hills, you will find that the guards there are wearing two sets of iron armor, with chain armor inside and chain armor outside. For our family, these are precious Guard the lives of soldier(s), not these armors. "

"By the way, these iron armors are all produced by ourselves, because we have an armor Grand-master. Now the only thing that puzzles us is that no iron ore has been found in the family Territory, otherwise our iron armor There is a steady stream of stuff that can fill up all your warehouses in less than a year. At that time you will be troubled that no more people will wear these iron armors.

The two directors, Speer and Hanks , face each other. They never dreamed that these iron armors were actually produced by themselves, and Lorist also said that the family already had a armor Grand-master, which was beyond their expectations. This is really great news.

"By the way, Speer director, how many iron armors did our family have before?" Lorist asked.

"Lord(s), there are seventeen iron armors in the family warehouse. Two of them are full-body armors of Knight(s). These two full-body armors are special armors of the former Lord and Great Young Lord. In addition, there are four serial armors and seven Chain armor, two scale armors, one plate armor and one iron chain armor. "Speer's steward is as many treasures as his family's possession, and he reported the quantity and type without hesitation.

"Let ’s take it tomorrow, you will bring six mail armors and two scale armors. My eight Imperial Guards here should also change their equipment. The six Bronze Rank Imperial Guards are equipped with chain armor, and then wear leather armor outside. Moses and Aceh wore scale armor for the two Black Iron Ranks. In addition, Speer steward, you informed Pachiko Knight(s) and let him go to the warehouse to pick an armor. By the way, and Patt, he also chose one. One hundred and seventy sets of iron chain armor arrived, and one hundred and forty sets remained after the Mercenary thirty sets were hired. I am preparing to equip the 120-strong guard squad that was just formed by the manor castle. Tomorrow you will distribute the chain mail. The remaining twenty sets of chain mail will be stored in the warehouse first, and some of the chain mail will be shipped from the castle site on the other side of the Morgen Hills, and I will reward them. Give those more than forty veterans who are currently serving as Instructor to commend them for coming forward in the most difficult time of the family and not giving up. "Lorist stood up while walking around the study room.

Speer manager bowed his head: "Okay, Lord(s), I will arrange it according to your wishes."

"Also, haven't we shipped 700 or more leather armors today? You should pick out 400 sets of similar styles at night, and prepare 400 spears. The Empire silver coin(s) is also prepared for 4,800 pieces. Box. Then put all these things on carriage . Joe, tomorrow you accompany me to North Wild Town, I have to urge them to send people over to me as soon as possible, without any delays, so as to avoid night accidents "Lorist pondered his chin.

"Lord(s), is it too cheap to send these weapons and equipment to the North Wild Town's defensive team?" Supervisor Hansk asked.

"Otherwise, they cannot be reassured. Just like fishing, you have to put bait. These weapons and equipment are the bait to lure the garrison. After they swallow the bait, we have a way to manipulate them. At present we can only Patience first, rest assured, then I will let them spit out these benefits even more profitably. Besides, our family soldier(s) is equipped with iron armor, these leather armor are useless, so use it to appease the defense team. . "Lorist said.

"Well, Lord(s), as you have said."
