Heart of Empire Chapter 82: White Wolf Castle
The inlaid leather armor is made of elastic soft leather reinforced with dense metal rivets. Due to the dense metal inlaid in it, it is naturally better than ordinary leather armor in terms of defense. At the same time, the weight is not as heavy as metal armor, and since the joints are made of soft leather, it does not hinder movement. Archers, light infantry and light cavalry, as well as other movements that require more agile mobility, are the favorites of this type of army to choose this equipment. At the same time, because the cost is relatively low, it is deeply loved by mercenaries and soldiers.

……
When people were either excited, or admiring, or hating, or whispering indifferently about the battle the night before, Dane was carrying a weapon that could blow most of his head With a covered hood, he stood pale in the port of Shawan Port, watching the Long Sail slowly leave the port and head south.
"Let's go too." The person standing next to him in the same attire as him was naturally Emre, "General Morno is still waiting for you."
"Yes." Dane nodded, then turned and left.
Half an hour later, the four fast horses left Shawan Harbor and galloped towards the north by west.
Originally, Dane naturally wanted to return to Cormyr with his own ship and the materials he bought. There are many things on the island, although most of them are handed over to his subordinates, but as a lord, he can't leave his lair for too long. Although some unsettling things happened in Shawan Port, they have been resolved after all, and Emre also kept his promise. He moved a few boxes of gold coins to Dane's boat that night, and he didn't lose money.
Therefore, although he really wanted to meet General Morno, who had always valued him and treated him well, in the end, after comprehensive consideration, he still chose to refuse Emre's offer to stay.
However, afterward, something Emre said made him change his mind.
If, as Emre said, this matter is negotiated, then this will be of great help to his future development. Whether it is the development from Comilla Island or the preparation for returning to the mainland in the future, this is a good opportunity.
Of course, he had to go to Morneau to discuss the specific situation. Emre couldn't be such a big master. So, he agreed to spend a few days to go to Rotten Wolf Town.
……
In less than a day's time, just as dusk fell, the desolate and corrupt outline of Rotten Wolf Town was already vividly seen.
Taking a long breath of the familiar wind and sand, a smile appeared on the corner of Dane's mouth.
Without alarming anyone, he and Emre did not enter Rotten Wolf Town, but went to a fort just beside Rotten Wolf Town - White Wolf Castle.
White Wolf Castle is the lair of Morno, the half-orc warlord who controls Rotten Wolf Town. Comparing White Wolf Castle and Marlon Manor, you should know why Malone occupied a sandy place that was much more prosperous than Rotten Wolf Town. Haiwan Port, however, is still in a panic under the pressure of Moreno.
Dane has never been to Marlon Manor, but he has heard of it. It was a land of rare abundance in Schindler, close to an oasis. After Ma Long occupied that place, he built a wall to surround the entire oasis, recruited slaves to farm, and he himself built a villa inside the wall, enjoying his life extremely.
And the White Wolf Fort in front of him, just as its name suggests, really looks like a white wolf in the yellow wind and sand, always ready to pounce on the enemy. The castle made of white bricks and stones is no longer so clean because of the baptism of wind and sand. It has been smeared with a layer of burnt yellow, but it looks so vicissitudes and rough.
And Morno, for the past ten years, has been training his army in this desolate castle.
His symbol is a running white wolf, and his army, the White Wolf Guard, is the most elite warrior in the southeastern region of Schindler. In particular, among the White Wolf Guards, there was a small white wolf cavalry brigade with perhaps only about 300 people, which made Morno's enemies even more frightened.
Approaching the gate of White Wolf Fort, Dane saw the white wolf cavalry he had admired for a long time. These people wore inlaid leather armor, covered most of their bodies with white burqas, and thick, wide scarves covered their necks, mouths and noses, only revealing a pair of eyes. This is the standard equipment of the White Wolf Cavalry. The inlaid leather armor provides a good defense, and at the same time it will not affect the combat of these agile cavalry; within the armor.
Two teams of cavalry, riding huge wargs, stood well-trained in front of the castle. The city gate was wide open, as if waiting for someone.
What they were waiting for was naturally Dane and Emre.
The silent cavalrymen were silent, except for the occasional low growl of the restless warg, there was no other sound.
Walking side by side with Emre, walking in the passage leading to the gate of the castle left by the two teams of white wolf cavalry, it was like reviewing an army.
An inexplicable emotion rose in Dane's heart~IndoMTL.com~He is enjoying himself, will there be a day when he can walk among his own troops and accept the attention ceremony in his future? The current scene is not enough for him. He hopes that what is on both sides is not someone else's army, but what truly belongs to him. Moreover, the ostentation is not big enough. In his imagination, it would be appropriate to have thousands of troops.
The two rode two war horses, and under the protection of two teams of white wolf cavalry, they walked slowly into the castle. Then, two teams of wolf cavalry followed suit. The lowered city gate and drawbridge were slowly pulled up under the shouts of the soldiers.
White Wolf Castle is not big, and there are no residents living in it. Except for more than 2,000 soldiers and some workers who serve the army such as blacksmiths, cobblers, and grooms, there are only Morno and his family. .
Handing over the horse to the groom, Dane headed for the core building of White Wolf Castle, which was also the residence of the owner, General Morno, under the leadership of Emre.
When I saw Morno, it was in his study.
"Hahaha! Dane! Long time no see! I heard that you went to sea to develop? What a pity, how many times I have told you, let you come to work with me, and a corps will bring you , you just don’t listen, you insist on going to Naluoshizipo Island to eat fish!”
Dane smiled slightly and said, "Everyone has his own ambitions. I would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail."
"Tsk tsk, then why have you been with that **** old Bynes for so long?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Dane said, "Isn't he dead now?"
"Haha! Sure enough, I know that old stuff won't hold you back for long~IndoMTL.com~Welcome all book lovers to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all here~IndoMTL.com~ Mobile phone users please go to read.
