The Amber Sword: The thirty-first act expansion (twelve) (second)

The thirty-first act expansion (twelve) (second)

After finally solving the emergency incident on my side, Knight Minteye naturally has to return to the army under command one's own.

But only at this time he couldn't help but be grateful: Thankfully, he was fighting against a group of black people. If there was a confrontation between the two armies, he really couldn't take time out of the army to restrain his lawless son.

But different people have different ideas. Knight Minteye just turned around, and the servants and relatives around youngster gathered around. They noticed that the owner ’s thunder anger did not fall on them, and they could not help sighed in relief, but whispered with a kind of curiosity unique to a teenager of this age: "Master, are we going to fight?"

youngster nodded and smiled indifferently: "Of course you have to fight, but a group of mob forget it/that's all, could it be that can be more powerful than mountain people indigenous people? You remember, our future enemies may be the real Elites of this kingdom As for these mobs, let them be the first stepping stones on our way forward -- "

"You can hear what the adult said, it seems that the other party is very powerful!"

"Reassurance, even the outstanding commoner has limited insight," youngster snorted. "Furthermore, I don't know what my father meant, he was only for stall for time forget it/that's all, and thought I couldn't see it? He said so badly, It may not be really powerful. But it doesn't matter, when I have blocked my father's afterwords, see what he will say in the future!

He looked at the back of Knight Minteye disappearing in the forest, and could not help but smile slyly.

...

The light in the house has become brighter.

But the argument outside the window grew louder, Brando frowned, finally stood up, bypassed the walnut desk, and came to the blinds to see what was going on in the courtyard below.

Through the white window, he quickly saw what Master Artisan Bolu, Amandina and his three Head Commanders were arguing with each other, and Silver Elf Little Princess stood aside as if he was persuading. On the other side, a little further away, Scarlett leaned against the one's own halberd under a black pine, biting a blade of grass and looking at it, and seemed to have little interest in what happened here.

"What's going on?"

Brando didn't understand why these people would quarrel, but after hesitating for a while he decided to go down and see what was going on. After all, his core member quarreled, which was not a good thing.

But then opened the door and ran into a dark shadow. If it wasn't for Brando's fast response, I'm afraid the two would smash into each other. He did n’t see clearly in one step of retreat. That ’s Flo, and wild elf girl was the same step of retreat. "Lord Thane!" She sorted out her emotions and then handed in a note --

"What's the matter?" Brando froze, thinking what day it is today, things one after another. As he took the note, he went out and closed the door, while looking down at the note on his hand, he was surprised and said, "Samuel has sent troops, already passed the Griess ferry?"

Samuel in his mouth is naturally Knight Minteye.

Even before the war with Troglodyte, the scout of mercenary was distributed along already along the Griess river. After regaining the logging site, the Brando withdrawing his hand was densely lined between the Fir City and Griess crossings, so the Knight Minteye just crossed the Griess river, and the news passed to already.

Flova followed him one step behind and nodded: "Yes, sir."

"That shouldn't have been mobilized since yesterday, it's much earlier than Ciel expected. Ah? is not easy for this guy --" Brando couldn't help but sigh.

Among all the reliable people around him, the one who is most familiar with today's Aouine noble and also understands the art of war is Ciel; and according to the young wizard, Knight Minteye cannot decide to leave prematurely because Aouine noble is between game rules Just put it there, it is unlikely that the average person will pass.

Of course, except --, such as Brando, who do not understand anything.

It can't be early, it can only be late. Judging from the indecision and timidity of most noble in Aouine, Ciel set the time for sending troops in Minteye direction after two days; but now it seems that the adult's I am afraid that the ability is still above the average level of Aouine ’s lower noble.

"How many people are there?" Brando asked again.

"Hundreds of people, no more than a thousand." Flo replied expressionlessly: "But across the Griess river, it is said that the scout under Kalun did not dare to go deep, and I do n’t know if there is a follow-up -- in the future."

"Relax, it's gone," Brando shook his head: "Samuel is just a family member. How many people can he have in hand? But only a few hundred people," he couldn't help but grin: "The other side is very Look down on us ... "

"I would rather everyone look down on us than the strange idea of ​​Lord Thane." wild elf girl glanced at him, and took the initiative to speak back.

Brando smiled, dropped the topic, but remembered something. "Speaking back," he asked, "I remember mentioning that the distance from the Griess river ferry to the east to Grahár Mountain, does the Griess river have several shoals on the forest side? It is a bit difficult to cross the army, but Kalun There should be no problem with the scout wading in the past? "

"Yes, but who wants to die."

"So Mercenary is still not as good as professional soldier," Brando shook his head: "Of course, I am not talking about you."

"Lopes mercenary is similar." Flo replied that although mercenaries claims to be living in war, there is no real soldier order. In fact, they see war as buying and selling, how much money buyers pay, forget it/that's all.

Most mercenarys implement some single quest / missions during the war. Employers also know this. Most people often use mercenary to make up for short-term military shortages. Besides Grudin, few people are strong I will really use them as the main force, even if the personal qualities of most mercenary and experience are extremely outstanding.

In a real war, discipline is often paramount. This is also why Brando did not rewrite these mercenaries. The veteran's loose temperament is difficult to change, so he intends to classify these Mercenary into Amber Sword Mercenary Company, so that they can play their role of one's own in future wars.

Anyway in this era, using mercenary is also very common.

As for the army in the Brando plan, of course, it is still recruited from the locals, and then absorbs a very small number of outstanding talents from Mercenary; to put it plainly, he does not intend to reuse mercenary, but Brando belongs to one's own The army only has an idea of ​​outline, and it is only now that a plan has been rolled out to spread this blueprint.

In his opinion, it can be counted as a complex -- now

The pressure that is about to be faced is not small, and now Knight Minteye already is sending troops, but he is still a pathfinder pawn; not to mention that the power of Count of Radnor is pressing on everyone's head like a cloud, which is Pallas and his hands. Knights is enough to bring enough trouble to this new territory --

Brando can't get the news from the north, but presumably the wide Ser Knight already got the news and started to assemble the army. With this Knight's loyalty to Grudin, he will naturally move his army to them in the fastest time.

But the thought of Grudin's most sophisticated Knights in the hands of Pallas, Brando is not a worry, but a pity. Those who are the most professional soldier in the Trentheim area, study art of war from an early age, if it can be used by him.

Of course, he also knows that this is just an extravagant hope. Brando put the notes into a purse and already put it down in his heart. He understands that the affairs of the army can only come from step by step, just like rice can only be eaten in one go.

But the news of Knight Minteye's troop dispatch didn't surprise him so much. The battle with Troglodyte was not without purpose. At this moment, from the coast of the Griess river to the forests around Fir City, Tajiv and its people have already been *** This area.

As for the fate of Knight Minteye, Brando does not need to spend much effort to think about it. Hundreds of private soldiers and a few Knights may have some mercenarys. In the face of thousands of Troglodytes, the results can be imagined.

Releasing the matter, he asked, "What's going on next?"

This time Flo shook her head, "I don't know --" She naturally saw a few people arguing as she passed the courtyard, but because of the indifference unique to this girl, she did not respond to these How concerned you are about irrelevant things.

Brando nodded and didn't ask much; the two passed through the dark spiral ladder to the lobby on the first floor. As soon as they entered the lobby --, of course, compared to the days when Brando was soaring here a few days ago, already was renovated. The long table also changed to a --. The sound of disputes in the courtyard outside became clear and audible.

But Brando first saw it in the lobby, a person sitting at the other side of the long table, almost Romaine lying on the table; miss merchant with a pair of strange glasses, a pair of small arms pressed on It seems that -- is being copied on a large pile of parchment

As for the argument from outside the courtyard, she turned a deaf ear.

Of course, after hearing the sound behind him, Romaine turned back abruptly, and when she saw youngster, a small face immediately burst into laughter, and raises head shouted embarrassingly: "Brando!"

Brando shook his head, walked over and took off the glasses on the thin bridge of the girl's nose, and asked angrily, "What are you doing, what are you doing?"

"Accounting slightly." miss merchant lifted his sharp little chin and replied for granted.

Brando, nodded, and then nodded; since taking over Fir City, all the private property of Grudin in the city as a booty was of course accepted by his ‘Lord Thane’. In addition to the remuneration and toil given to mercenary after the war, in fact, a lot of money was left.
