Lord of the Oasis Chapter 292: .Intelligence from the prisoners’ mouths
The midday sun is scorching hot.
The temperature of the Narun Desert suddenly rose to an oven-like horror level.
Walking against such a terrifying scorching sun will lead to heat stroke and dehydration in just ten minutes. If you don't want to die, you'd better find a tent on the back of the dune to avoid the high temperature at noon.
Kant also didn't leave, and enjoyed the comfortable lunch he deserved in the inn.
Just received a large amount of Golden Eagle in the morning.
You can exchange for 268,000 dinars at any time when you return to "Drehem" Castle.
Pay off King Yarogork's loan, leaving most of it as a surplus.
Plundering the gold of this world as a material is much faster than the slave trade and production business. If Kant can find this way to earn dinars earlier, he will definitely scratch his head and get through to the lion. Principality's business line.
Not yet, though.
Trade is nascent and needs to be carefully maintained for maximum returns.
The merchants of the Principality of the Lion need Kant's salt, and Kant needs the Golden Eagle of the Principality of the Lion. Even if the price of 150 large silver coins on the black market is exchanged for 1 golden eagle, they will accept it and take the initiative to make profits.
The purpose is to ensure that the next trade will be settled by Golden Eagle.
After all, Kant's system only needed gold.
Materials such as silver are actually not in high demand, or are not collected at all.
As long as Kant can obtain a large number of golden eagles, it means that he has obtained a large number of dinars, an opportunity for development, and a strong future, which is beneficial and not harmful.
With the system, with the dinar, his development is changing like a thousand miles!
This is just the beginning.
Dine at noon to avoid the scorching sun.
Kant just took this lunch break.
The 100 Swadian knights are still on guard. They have not fought in the previous campaign, and there are still some left.
After all, although the merchants were coerced to the top floor of the inn, the guards and servants of these caravans were still there. The scale of hundreds of people would be a lot of trouble if there was a real disturbance. watch over.
Who knows if there are troops in ambush or not.
Fortunately there was no mess.
Rolfe also led the Salanders to an easy rout to victory.
And 120 Salander riders and 220 desert robbers have fully gained the experience of this victory, especially the destructive defeat of the enemy, enough for all desert robbers to upgrade.
The upgrade cost for the Desert Bandit is 20 dinars, for a total of 4400 dinars.
Kant is naturally not stingy.
With the confirmation, all 220 desert robbers will be upgraded to desert robber elite.
Wearing more sophisticated iron-inlaid leather armor, the short javelins on the back have also increased to 6, and the heavy ones are also more lethal.
The current desert robber elite is indeed the word elite, and it is fully qualified to cooperate with the Sarandian riders to launch a charge. It is estimated that the 600 knight attendants will attack again, and the consequences will be even more tragic.
After the javelin rain, it will not be the backs of desert robbers fleeing.
In line with the charge of the Salander riders, holding spears and machetes on both sides, they rushed in during the turn, and the elite gangsters slashed wantonly!
But thinking of these knight attendants, Kant couldn't help squinting.
Go out of the room again.
Go to the lobby on the first floor, only to find Rolfe sitting in a chair.
Besides are 30 Salander riders, holding their spears and hilts majestically, looking coldly at the 10 prisoners kneeling in front of them, all silent but full of momentum.
From the miserable appearance of these 10 prisoners with bruised cheeks and blood on the corners of their mouths, you can tell that this is an interrogation.
And it's over.
After getting the information he wanted, Rolfe waved: "Take them back!"
"Yes!"
The Salander rider nodded, walked over, picked up the 10 prisoners, and walked outside the inn.
There are many tents outside for these captives, and next to them are the tents of the Swadian knights. As long as they dare to make the slightest change, their weapons and armors have been restrained, and it is estimated that the massacre will be instantaneous.
This group of prisoners has also been appointed, and they dare not resist in the slightest.
The previous charge from Rolf directly killed the group of knights and servants, terrified!
Kant did not care about the captives.
Sitting in his seat, he asked Rolfe, "Where did these guys come from?"
"No."
Rolfe paused slightly.
"Speak." Kant frowned: "Do you still have any hesitation?"
"Indeed." Rolfe smiled wryly and shrugged his shoulders to Kant: "These guys are called the Gale Mercenary Corps. They are mercenary groups that run rampant in the North County and South County of the Principality of Lions, and occasionally go deep into the East County. famous."
"Yes, they are famous."
Kant nodded.
This mercenary group has suddenly appeared in recent years and has done several major cases.
For example, he helped some nobles to kill some enemies, or invaded the families of some small nobles and massacred them. Although they were not wanted by the noble court, everyone in the Principality of Lions knew that it was this Gale mercenary group. people do.
But who doesn't know that in the Principality of Lions, this Gale mercenary group is originally a wild dog raised by a high-ranking noble.
As a result, he is not wanted by the noble court.
If it is an ordinary bandit gang, whether it can capture the families of the minor nobles is another matter. As long as they do this kind of thing that touches the bottom line of the nobles, it is estimated that they will be wanted by the nobles court long ago, and those nobles, big and small, will be recruited. The manpower, even if he gritted his teeth, had to fight this uncontrolled gang of bandits.
How can it be regarded as the loyal dog of the nobles, as well as the executioner who trembled and feared for the minor nobles who offended the high nobles.
But Kant frowned: "These guys seem to be the Gale Mercenaries."
"Hmmm."
Rolf shrugs, the situation doesn't need to be said.
Kant understands.
This is a nobleman, start targeting him!
The Gale Mercenary Corps has a very good reputation. Basically, any minor nobles who are dealt with by them are unlikely to survive, and they have never been caught, so the reputation alone is enough to scare many people.
Now appearing in Kant's Naron Desert, it is entirely for the purpose of Killing Post Oasis.
Just want to kill Kant!
He gritted his teeth slightly, squinted his eyes and said, "Do you know who the ambassador is behind?"
"Their mouths are hard."
Rolf shrugs.
"Didn't ask?" Kant frowned.
"No, I asked." Rolf shrugged and said normally: "I picked 30 people, and after killing 20, the remaining 10 guys told me everything they knew. ."
"Good job." Kant nodded.
Rolfe continued: "It's Baron Dylan."
Kant was stunned.
Stunned for a moment, he turned his head and smiled in disbelief: "You mean Baron Dylan of Stone Pass?"
"That's right." Rolf nodded.
"Then I really don't believe it."
Kant shook his head with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes: "Those prisoners didn't tell you the truth."
He knows the background of Baron Dylan very well.
Although he and this Uncle Dylan have been compromised by the need for disguise once.
But in fact, the Baron of the Stone Pass, in the Principality of Lions, is equivalent to a dispensable warrior nobleman. He is a marginalized guy. It can be seen from the fact that he married a merchant's daughter. Accepted by mainstream aristocratic circles.
As long as you have the ability and a little background of the noble, the object of marriage is definitely the daughter of the noble family.
The class of merchants is really half a level higher than that of commoners!
In the eyes of nobles.
Businessmen and landlords, although they have the title of gentleman, are no different from commoners.
And marrying a daughter of a non-noble is even more self-deprecating.
If Baron Dylan had the ability to train 600 knight attendants, how could he be so resentful, rejected by the mainstream aristocracy, and become a miserable marginal aristocrat?
This is obviously impossible, just think about it with your head and know that there is definitely something tricky in it!
"It's really not right."
Rolfe nodded in a weird tone: "So I slapped these captives on the cheeks with a scabbard."
"I see." Kant nodded.
As they descended the stairs, the captives had bruises on their cheeks and blood on the corners of their mouths.
Although the face can be seen in front of him, it must have been hit by a heavy object.
Kant frowned and said, "Who is that!"
He resents Rolf's sloppy-eyed ~IndoMTL.com~ delays.
"Yes..."
Rolfe's face is even more weird, after thinking about it, he still said to Kant: "After torture, the backstage of these guys is Countess Agatha from the East County Territory, uh, Lord Kant, I think you should Knowing this Countess, who is known for her cruelty and blood, because she... er..."
"Yes, she is my aunt, the closest aunt by blood." Kant squinted and took what Rolfe didn't say, but his tone was indifferent: "Oh, aunt."
The royal family has no family, so how can there be any aunt.
What's more, Kant's relationship with this aunt was not very good since he was a child.
The most important thing is that this aunt had a stand-off with his father, Cameron the Lion, 10 years ago. For this reason, he changed the leadership of Winter County to East County, in order to fight with Nan County. And the name of North County is sullen.
Even the communication between the two sides, such as the communication between the top nobles, is almost stagnant.
At least Kant didn't know until he came to the Naron Desert that there was any sign of reconciliation between the two sides.
"But."
Kant squinted his eyes with solemnity: "Why did she send troops here?"
"I don't know." Rolf shook his head.
If it's a business, it's good to send a caravan.
Send troops directly, or the notorious and infamous Gale mercenary group, then it does not mean any reconciliation, but to the point of tearing its face naked and resolving the grievances with the most direct war method of the nobles !
Kant doesn't think that he and this aunt Agatha, who is an earl, have reached such a state of immortality.
However, the war did begin.
Since the East County Leader has dispatched troops, Kant will definitely not lick his face to accept the so-called favor.
He's strong enough to protect himself! 71()
