Chapter 55 Clouds of War

Most of the mercenaries are fugitives, orphans, children of bankrupt craftsmen, second sons of down-and-out nobles, and other people who struggle at the bottom of society as the main source of the people who live a homeless place, hunger and fullness. I wonder if there is still a day to go tomorrow, and can become a professional army with a stable income, and even have the opportunity to become a knight and a jazz and other small nobles. For these people who are struggling and wandering for survival, they are simply undesirable.

Either they "show off" like familiar peers, or they "accidentally" let them go in a bar. In short, the Renzhi Sword Mercenary Group may be recruited by all members of the Rhine family as a formal guard. In the news, it will quickly spread among the mercenaries.

Although other families have some complaints, they are jealous. The sword of Ren is not large in size, but it is not small in the mercenary circle. Both individual soldiers and groups have high evaluations. They act in a cunning and cunning manner and have almost never failed when they receive tasks. The dazzling record of defeating bandits several times that of Jishan in the Godaru Hill is that it is not much worse than that of professional warriors of equal numbers. The name of "Human Snake Vegeta" is not for nothing!

Besides, they also have friendship with senior military officers of the Lord Guard. Although other mercenaries were so envious that they could only curse "Dog Luck" and who made them have no back door to leave?~!

Originally, I was only going to absorb a small amount of more elite power from the sword of Ren to use it for my own use. When Closi heard that Vegeta was making a big fuss outside, he was so angry that he was so angry that he learned from the principal on TV that he slapped the table and scolded "Niangxipi". He thought to himself that he was really a good thing when he knew Maiya.

After returning to the territory, he hoped to meet the contract signing standards as soon as possible. Xisu, who became a sharp sword in Closi's hand, plunged into cruel practice without caring about foreign affairs. Helen, who became a guard, honed her martial arts and digested and adapted to new strength, while helping to make suggestions and deal with trivial matters to share the pressure of Closi. Maiaal devoted all his efforts to the training of young and strong people in the territory, and selected tasks to train useful combat power from the many gathered mercenaries and handed them to Vegeta. In short, as time passed, the tense and restless war factors floating in the air became increasingly intense.

The troops in the territory continued to gather towards the town of Leka, and more spies sent out, the information sent back by Roderick became more and more detailed. More than a month passed quickly, and it was the hottest midsummer season of the year.

Because of the sea, the Rhine family territory in summer is pleasant and comfortable, which can be said to be the best season of the year, but Clossi has no time to enjoy the beauty of his hometown.

According to the news sent back from the dark line, there were nearly a thousand elite soldiers of Wallace's family as a large number of supplies gathered in Roderick, and many small and medium-sized nobles of the Wallace family were also rectifying their troops and gradually gathering towards Roderick. In the summer when a large number of young and strong laborers restricted farmland workshops to maintain normal production, Roderick had already had a huge army of about four thousand people, and by the time the autumn harvest was completed, the number would be at least twice as high.

For the Rhine family, the professional army supported by the family, including the mercenaries under Shanghai Lun and Vegeta, can be called elite force at most, and even with the number of young and strong peasants who have received some simple training during the slack season, the number of people who can gather is only about 3,000. The one who gives a little comfort is that the Rhine family has strong financial resources and its own ordnance workshop, and the armour of the soldiers is not much different from the elite soldiers of the other party.

On one hand, there is a professional army that has been rampant in the west for many years, and on the other hand, there is a miscellaneous army composed of peasant soldiers with absolute disadvantage in quality and quantity. Although the strength and weakness are judged, Clossi does not feel that he has no chance.

The impact of morale on victory or defeat on the battlefield, especially in cold weapons wars cannot be ignored. When the momentum is fought on the formation, even rabbits dare to stop the evil wolf. The powerful general brother can not only easily tear the enemy's front and inspire and motivate ordinary soldiers, but also the shock pressure on the opponent cannot be ignored. The powerful general brother who can surpass human cognition and bring confidence to people seems to be young and old.

Although I was somewhat worried that that kind of thing would be mixed in the invading army of the Wallace family, regardless of whether I wanted it or not, the cloud of war was inevitably pressed against the Rhine family. There was no way out, so I could only pick up weapons to protect my home and fight for freedom and dignity to the end!

When the sun rises east, the early seagulls fly into the blue sky facing the rising sun. They are white and agile, showing a kind of beauty and strength, adding a leisurely vitality to the vast sea and sky.

Clossi got up very early today, ate some food under the maid's service, changed into formal gowns with exquisite workmanship and quite cumbersomeness, sat in the luxurious castle hall with his fingers hooked, and was bored to wait for the Wallace family messenger who claimed that he would arrive soon after morning tea.

"Sir, they are here." At noon, the sound of iron boots stepping on the stone slabs from far to near, and a guard turned into the hall with the fragrance of sandalwood to report.

Except for Maiya, who is in charge of the inspection today, almost all the leading figures of the Rhine family, including Helen, were sitting in the hall in formal wear. When they heard the guards' words, their eyes were involuntarily concentrated on the main seat at one end of the sandalwood table.

The atmosphere in the hall was quite dull, as if something invisible was pressing against it.

It is really hard to relax with the Wallace family. After more than ten years of continuous embezzlement and expansion of the Wallace family, the strength of the Wallace family, has expanded rapidly. Not only in the West, even the top major forces in the mainland, but even the Saint Capital, which has a wide influence as a religious center in the mainland, has to avoid them. As enemies of this huge force, they may even face the conquest of nearly 10,000 troops. How could the Rhine family's retainers not be worried?

The slightly frowning brows stretched out and he let out a breath of impatiently. Clossi stood up on the table and stretched, which was quite unhappy with the Wallace family messenger who had been wasting his whole morning.

The protagonist, I personally welcomed the messenger because of basic etiquette, and it was not afraid of you. The announcement was that it was a morning tea and he was delayed until now. He played a big name with me? Just like the family that was entangled with the awakened ones, it really made people very popular.

Looking around the silent hall, everyone was filled with nervous, panic and uneasy expressions. Clossi clapped his hands hard, and cleared his throat and said loudly: "Teacher Al once told me that if someone dares to bully him, he must fight back! Now someone comes to the door to occupy our home, steal our wealth, enslave our wife and daughter, as the lord of this land..."

The 'bang' fist hit the table hard. Clossi took a deep breath, his voice suddenly increased, and his refreshing and loud voice made a powerful oath: "The Rhine family will never retreat!"

With his lips slightly pursed, Helen raised the corners of her mouth and smiled slightly. All eyes in the room were focused on the slightly thin figure at the end of the long table. In the dull hall, only Clossi's voice was echoing.

In the eyes of all the retainers, Clossi is a child who is good at creating miracles, because he has managed the almost collapsed Rhine family to the present situation in just a few years. His words seem to be magical, and they can always bring people inexplicable confidence and courage, and incredible gives people the feeling that they can definitely do as long as they say it.

There is no extra time for them to think about things in the corpses. Some time ago, someone seemed to be panicked because he heard that a war might have occurred. There were many problems with the work at hand.

Clossi's mobilization played a significant role. Since the head of the family had the determination to resist, these retainers who were loyal to the Rhine family feared the Wallace family's strong military strength and inspired some courage. As a retainer, it was supposed to do his job well in accordance with the will of the head of the family, and some retainers who were frightened before even looked ashamed.

Besides, although the Wallace family's army is strong, the Rhine family has been secretly preparing for this for several years. With Al, Maia, and his own lord who is good at creating miracles, the Rhine family may not necessarily lose.

The atmosphere in the hall was much more lively than before. Some people exchanged opinions in a low voice, while others echoed excitedly. Clossi nodded with satisfaction. Although it was a little bit chaotic, it was better than the atmosphere of suppressing silence before. He turned around and looked at Al, who was standing beside him with a sword, who had not spoken, and asked: "What do you mean by the teacher?"

"Chung-chang" pulled out a heavy sword with a cold light and stood in front of him, and Al said coldly: "When friends come, they have good wine, and when enemies come, they have swords and guns."

The sound of horse hooves sounded on the road surrounded by fields outside the town, causing the working farmers in the world and pedestrians on the road to look up. The smoke surrounds the road, and passers-by retreat. Holding up the Wallace family's flag, the arrogant envoy was surrounded by fully armed servants, galloping across the town, and heading towards the Rhine family castle...

The horse team slowly slowed down in front of the castle and stopped. The Wallace family's messenger sat down and looked at the Rhine family with a condescending expression. He turned around and took out something "swagger" from his luggage and threw it in front of Clossi.

It was a large string of rings with a noble badge. The reins were tightened, and the strong and strong horses sniffed in front of Clossi, as if they were in line with their master's thoughts, and stood up arrogantly. The Wallace family messenger raised his chin and looked at the people in front of the castle with arrogance, without the humility and caution that the messenger should have.

The kind of master family has the same kind of subordinates. It can represent the Wallace family, who is swaying and clutched, and the messenger is naturally accustomed to being arrogant, but it is a bit unhappy to run to Clossi to act arrogantly and threaten.
