Hard Rock Pass, inside the ruling mansion.
The atmosphere was extremely depressed.
Baron Dylan sat in the master of his study, looking at the merchant in front of him, gritted his teeth and said, "That little thing is really vicious."
But the businessman standing in front of him was afraid to answer.
Identity is here.
However, in the room, two vassal knights trusted by Dylan persuaded: "Master Dylan, don't need to be so angry. Perhaps the forces behind Baron Kant want to push him out so that they don't have to be completely controlled. For you, after all, you have mastered the key points, which is equivalent to strangling their throats."
What the vassal knight refers to is the natural dividing line between the Naron Desert and the Principality of the Lions, that is, the only gap in the majestic Sanwaya Mountains, the Rocky Pass.
That's where they are now and firmly under control!
"Humph."
Baron Dylan's face was still gloomy and snorted heavily, but his expression was a little slow.
His vassal knight is right.
Sitting on the ground.
In particular, the Jianshi Pass is equivalent to the only access to both sides of the Sanwaya Mountains. Even if there are some country roads and some beast roads can bypass this pass, but as long as they are strictly investigated, they can always be found and blocked.
What's more, entering the Nalun Desert may require a lot of supplies, especially fresh water, which is the top priority.
The caravan staff must be many.
You can't transport much salt when you pack lightly.
Therefore, it is necessary to replenish materials in the Jianshi Pass to ensure the safety after entering the Nalun Desert. If you want to venture around the pass and enter the desert cheaply, there is no doubt that it is equivalent to playing life and risking your life to enter the desert. Can you finally open up trade? It is two things to say that whether you die in the desert is the most important thing to care about.
In the past, those spy caravans, after replenishing supplies at Jianshi Pass, seemed to leave south. In fact, they carefully entered the Nalun Desert after carefully bypassing the pass.
As the local lords, these Baron Dylan have known for a long time.
By that time the trail was blocked several times.
Even gangs of robbers were hired to enter the roads and the desert to loot. With the weak guards of the merchants, it was impossible to stop the professional robbers hired.
After all, the robbers of this era are sometimes no different from mercenaries.
Baron Dylan, who has already developed, naturally has this capital!
Thinking of this, he looked a lot better, and waved to the businessman: "Okay, go ahead, don't pretend to be vocal, just don't know anything, just wait for the rest of my arrangements."
"Yes, Master Dylan."
The businessman wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and quickly quit the study.
The other two vassal knights in the study looked at Dylan. They had been with each other for a long time. Obviously, they knew that they had arrangements for them.
As expected, Baron Dylan asked, "How many soldiers do we have now."
"38 knights, 150 knight servants, 500 pikemen and 100 archers."
The vassal knight responsible for the management of the army replied: "If you expand the army, you can also form 1,000 armed militia, as well as 2,000 recruited farmers, and an archer composed of 500 hunters."
"Well, these are our own troops." Baron Dylan narrowed his eyes.
These soldiers are his original troops.
It is equivalent to a hard stone pass and clenched teeth, giving up all the armed forces that can be built up after development.
Including those recruiting farmers who only used pointed pitchforks.
It used to be Baron Dylan's self-preservation, but during the past three months, the salt trade and big silver coins were used to open the way, and the overall force level was rising rapidly. This former confidence has long been ignored by him.
Baron Dylan continued to ask: "How about those mercenaries?"
"Now there are various robbers and robber gangs as mercenaries, with a total of 1,600 people."
The vassal knight replied: "You can go to the battlefield with standard weapons, and the combat effectiveness is barely good." After a pause, he solemnly reported: "However, the most important thing is to accept the hiring mercenary group we hire, a total of 600 light The cavalry is the strongest group of mercenaries recruited this time."
"It sounds good." Baron Dylan nodded slightly, but his eyes were a little gloomy: "But the question is, can the reliability of this group of guys be guaranteed?"
"Ordinary mercenaries, 30 small silver coins per person per month."
The vassal knight immediately replied: "But the 600 cavalry-born mercenary cavalry would need 80 small silver coins per month, and if the wartime would add an additional 20 small silver coins."
"That's a big silver coin." Baron Dylan sneered, "I'll pay the money back."
"There is reliability."
The vassal knight was also disdainful: "These mercenaries are greedy guys who see the money. At least no one around the nobility can hire them for a long time, so we are only one. We still use silver coins to develop their loyalty. The problem, at least on the battlefield, will not betray us."
"No, it's not like that." Baron Dylan raised his lips and smiled, but there was no slight smile in his eyes: "There is no reason to betray us on the battlefield, just the price is not enough."
The two vassal knights were silent, and this was irrefutable.
But Baron Dylan didn’t delve into this issue. He sat in a chair, his hands gently tapping on the table: "Next, there will definitely be a lot of caravans and spies in my pass. This is the most troublesome."
"Please tell me, Master Dylan."
Two vassal knights spoke.
"Well, you really need to be busy."
Baron Dylan nodded, knocking on the table and said: "Let our mice be active, it is better to be installed in any corner of the whole pass. I don’t want my territory to become a sieve that anyone can come in. At that time, I really It will be very faceless, I think you two understand this."
"We will do our best!" The two vassal knights replied panic.
"All I need is this attitude."
Baron Dylan smiled: "But rest assured, when the storm passes, I will remember your loyalty." Suddenly, he looked at the two of them very solemnly said: "At that time, I will arrange for you You won’t be disappointed by the fact that the land is closed and 2000 large silver coins are used as bonuses."
The faces of the two vassal knights were already ecstatic, and when he heard Baron Dylan’s words, he immediately knelt on one knee and bowed to the chest with great respect: "Master, we will do our best to complete the task you gave us!"
"well!"
Baron Dylan nodded with a chuckle, and waved: "Go down and wait for tomorrow to cheer up, let our mice sniff, where are those dirty bugs."
"Yes!" They continued to salute before exiting the room gratefully.
But when the two left.
Baron Dylan's complexion came down suddenly.
"Oh, you can't sit still anymore, are you starting to find a way out?"
His hand clasped the handle of the chair tightly, and his face was extremely bad: "Both of you guys started to have a disloyalty towards me, and really thought I didn't notice it? Your extraordinary powers were all enlightened by you. Now even you all started to betray me, I really did not expect, I really did not expect!"
"They were all veterans, you became a baron, and they are vassal knights who can't be mixed with your men. How could they be willing?"
In the room, a calm voice appeared in the darkness.
Baron Dylan did not panic, but narrowed his eyes and said: "But they don't know gratitude, oh, thanksgiving, okay, this word will be said in my mouth, it's ridiculous."
"Yes, it's really ridiculous." The calm voice chuckled: "It's like when you betrayed Princess Sophia and betrayed the Silver Plate Kingdom on the battlefield, then you can become this noble and really set foot on this class, don't you? ?You also treat them as stepping stones."
"You know so much." Baron Dylan seemed to hear no sarcasm or sneer from this population.
"of course."
The man in that shadow finally came out.
Limp, came to the chair next to the study and sat down, said with a chuckle: "Well, that's right with me, Baron Dylan, people around you have begun to betray you, if you don't think about it I want to retreat in vain in my own retreat, and the final result is absolutely miserable."
"You are threatening me." Baron Dylan's face was sullen, rare but without anger.
"I'm just telling the truth."
This man looked up, precisely the spy leader at the bottom of the house in the pass.
He deeply understood Baron Dylan’s character, but he didn’t force it too hard, but instead changed his tone:
Sometimes you can turn to others too early~EbookFREE.me~ will be reused, especially in this emergency At the juncture, your surrender can gain unimaginable benefits, such as the increase in power, the promotion of the title..." He looked up at Dylan: "And also obtained the hereditary nobility, the qualification to become a superior nobility!"
"The conditions are generous and equally reasonable." Baron Dylan gritted his teeth and clenched his fists as if he had made up his mind: "Okay, please answer Count Aisha, I am willing to be his most loyal baron."
"No no no." The spy leader smiled: "You are the most loyal Viscount."
Baron Dylan also smiled: "Thank you Earl Agatha."
"She is the most benevolent." The spy leader nodded: "However, you now also need to pay a certain amount of loyalty, such as sending troops to enter the Naron desert and recover the salt mines that have fallen abroad."
"It's a bit difficult, you know my troops haven't been able to fight in the desert."
Baron Dylan narrowed his eyes and answered, "It's really difficult."
"No, you still misunderstood."
The spy leader chuckled: "You have troops that can enter the desert, such as a 600-person mercenary cavalry, well-equipped, powerful combat, and sufficient logistics supplies."
"I don't understand." Baron Dylan frowned.
"This stormy mercenary regiment used to be very popular with Earl Agatha."
The spy leader smiled and said: "Don't disappoint the reputation of this elite cavalry."
"No." Baron Dylan looked at the spy leader's smile, but felt a little chill in his heart. He had already doubted that he could recruit such an elite cavalry, and now he is right.
This 600-strong turbulent mercenary regiment is the hidden army of the Countess East County Aisha responsible for the black hand!
