Chapter 386 The Bonfire of Dreams(1/2)
Let's wait until you grow up.
Ariel sat in the room, thinking about what Wan Yuan said.
Ever since Wan Yuan said these words, she felt a little uneasy.
Not only did he want to become a guardian knight of ten thousand yuan now, but he also began to look forward to the future.
Even swinging the sword became harder.
News from the Antal Kingdom finally came.
Merchants who had seen Wan Yuan's sword in the slave market also stepped forward to sell strong slaves when they heard that Wan Yuan wanted to form his own mercenary group.
The price is higher than the single hire fee of a mercenary, but the advantage is that you don't need to pay wages after buying it, as long as you ensure food and accommodation. After all, the slave you bought is your personal property. If you die, you will lose your own money.
There were also many clones among the slaves that Victor sold to them, but Wan Yuan did not want these clones, but only bought some slaves.
Then the shackles were removed from their bodies.
Give a speech.
The general content is that I bought them for ten thousand yuan for the purpose of fighting, but I will not treat them as slaves, eating and living with the mercenaries.
The cost of buying them is equivalent to a hiring fee. After the hiring is over, the slaves become free and they can decide whether to leave or stay.
The kind-hearted menstrual slaves initially thought that Wan Yuan was playing a trick on them. After all, many nobles took pleasure in this. However, after Wan Yuan swore an oath to the soldiers in Lana City, they began to collectively call for Wan Yuan.
name.
In this way, with two hundred slaves, plus fifty permanent mercenaries recruited, a mercenary group worth ten thousand yuan was officially established in Bariniya.
It's called Baidi.
As for why there are only fifty permanent mercenaries?
Because the mercenaries are not fools, according to the news, one person defends a city, and it is done at the city gate.
In other words, there is no need to face attacks from all directions, just focus on the front.
In addition, Xicai, the leader of the Anluobe mercenary group, did not use siege weapons or artillery bombardment, which allowed Wan Yuan to defend the city.
Although this also proves that ten thousand yuan can defeat one against ten or even one hundred, it is not shocking.
He can only be regarded as a fierce general.
As for whether you can lead troops to fight?
Then you still need to observe and practice.
After all, although some of the leaders of each mercenary group are famous for their strength, most of them rely on their brains.
No one wants to lose their life because the leader is a reckless man.
Coincidentally, just after the Baidi Mercenary Group was established, it received its first commission.
Hiring from the city of Lana.
The job content is to destroy nearby bandits.
Bandits and robbers are generally composed of refugees or runaway slaves. They are cunning and discerning. They live in the mountains for many years and come down from time to time to block roads and rob money.
Most of the targets are businessmen.
Because there are no standing armies in other cities in Barinia except Lana City, the only way to suppress the bandits is to hire mercenaries, but after a group of people are suppressed, there will be new refugees who will become bandits soon.
Over time, no country is willing to do the time-consuming and laborious task of suppressing bandits.
So much so that banditry is the second profession suitable for refugees besides mercenaries.
And it’s even more seamless.
People who become mercenaries have to take care of their reputation, but those who become bandits don't.
When Lana City announced the recruitment of bandits, it was most likely to test the strength of Ten Thousand Yuan.
Wan Yuan readily accepted this.
What he needs most now is fame.
One week after accepting employment.
Wan Yuan completed the employment with the head of the bandit leader near Lana City.
Including the deposit and commission, it's nearly one thousand gold coins.
Since then, the Baidi Mercenary Group has been able to maintain the operation of a team of only 250 people with the first pot of gold without having to pay back tens of thousands of yuan.
Oh, no, there are no more 250 people.
Because the 10,000 yuan promised to end the first employment, the slaves decided whether to leave or stay.
Although most slaves chose to stay, a small number of slaves who longed for freedom left.
As a result, the 250 mercenary group was reduced to less than 200 people overnight.
But on the second day, more than 500 people were recruited.
Some of them are still wanted by other mercenary groups.
In other words, the actual number of combatants in the Baidi Mercenary Group is more than 500, but including their families, the number is about 1,200.
Most of them are orphans and have to become mercenaries, otherwise the number will only be larger.
Gelder was also promoted to Captain of a Thousand Men and managed more than 500 mercenaries.
His wife served as the logistics director of the mercenary regiment, responsible for allocating women and young people who could not go to the battlefield but had sound limbs.
Ariel also has a partner of the same age, and everything is going in a good direction.
I guess so.
One month later.
[Gus who killed hundreds of people].
The news reached Barinha.
According to legend, this man is the right-hand man of Grievous, the leader of the Eagle Order of the Knights directly under Mitlan.
After the general killed Julius and his heirs for ten thousand dollars and escaped, there was no one in Midland who could take on the role of general except Grievous.
Therefore, Grievous's promotion became a matter of course. After experiencing several beautiful battles, he became an earl and also changed from the captain of the knights to a general.
The king also promised that as long as Grievous captured the Dolduri Castle, he would be promoted to marquis, and his confidants would be given titles. He might even marry Princess Salut and become the king of Mitland after the king died.
Regent.
At that time, Midland will be Grievous's one-stop shop.
There are many people who oppose this, but no one has the ability to stand against Grievous.
Since Ten Thousand Yuan escaped, Grievous couldn't even find a decent opponent in Mitlan.
So much so that Grievous now has a very high reputation among the people of Midland, and he is basically certain to be the next regent.
For that position, Grievous also summoned all the soldiers of Midland and started the expedition after the king agreed.
The target is none other than Doldouri Castle.
And successfully defeated the Blue Whale Knights on the road, and the stormtrooper captain Gus also completed the feat of killing a hundred people by himself!
There is so much news about Mitlan.
Coupled with the time required to deliver the message, Grievous might have captured Dolduri Castle by now.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wan Yuan dropped the letter with news about Mitlan.
He put out the oil lamp, picked up a glass of milk, and walked out of the tent.
Now they are in the wild, and Lana City does not allow the mercenary group to enter the city.
Wan Yuan leaned on the golden boat, drank milk while admiring the moon, and wondered what he was thinking.
…
…
Gus shook his glass of red wine and stared at the moon.
At this moment, he was wearing aristocratic clothes, and his tall body looked very stylish. Many ladies took a fancy to him and wanted to dance with him.
But, a man who grew up on the battlefield.
How can you dance?
So he found an excuse and slipped out.
But I saw the bright moon.
He thought of Wan Yuan's words and couldn't help but murmured:
"Sure enough, the moon is nothing interesting to see, but Wan Yuan, are you looking at it now?"
Gus didn't know why Wan Yuan wanted to kill Julius and the others.
