Chapter 371: Rigorous System (Part 2)

The mercenary leader took a drink and took a break and continued: "What I mentioned earlier is only the benefits of hiring mercenaries, and the benefits of the mercenary group or the actual owner of the mercenary group are great. First of all, the mercenary group can participate in the offensive and defensive battle between any lord at will on the grounds of accepting tasks. Of course, you must not turn to the enemy before joining one side of the war. No one will do this because even if you lose, you have the same power as the nobles and can redeem your freedom with money.

"Then you can take on the mission and lead troops across the border to destroy the robbers. Just show the mission documents and inform the lords of the cross-border. For such a mission, the spoils belong to the mercenary group themselves. If you are too powerful and don't worry about it, you can turn into a robbers, and you can't even have any tasks to swallow the quest. Of course, it's not that there are no idiots who will do this, but in the end they abandon their bright future and become a robbers that everyone calls for."

"The last benefit is that after obtaining the authorization of the lord, the mercenary group can have a garrison place, that is, the army that replaces the lord to control a certain place. In the garrison place, the mercenary group has the right to conscription and tax, but does not have administrative power. Generally, mercenary groups with strong abilities can obtain this benefit. However, at this point, they usually either become a noble or take a step back and be defeated by other mercenary groups or robber groups, and start over." When talking about this mercenary leader couldn't help but sigh again.

Seeing that the mercenary leader was so emotional, Cons had to cough and ask again: "Well, what's the use of the hierarchy of the mercenary group?"

The mercenary leader glanced at Cons: "What's the use? Hehe, the first-level mercenary group can only have twelve armed mercenaries who travel around the three major priests to all cities. They can sway in front of the army with a knife without being caught, and can live in the city openly. If the number of people exceeds the number, but does not upgrade, they will be demoted to a robber group and immediately culled by the local garrison. Do you think this benefit is great?"

Cons couldn't help but widen his eyes: "The mercenary group actually has legal garrison rights? So how many places are there at level 2 to level 9?"

"Legal right to garrison? Hehe, yes, it is indeed legal right to garrison. This statement is elegant and worthy of being knowledgeable. You from a foreign land, are you so interested in the mercenary group? Do you also want to form a mercenary group to play with it?" The mercenary leader blinked and smiled. Cons didn't care. When he asked about hiring mercenaries, he showed to others that he was not from the Snow Country in the North.

The mercenary leader didn't care whether Cons replied or not. He said as if he had drunk too much: "Level 2 is thirty-six, Level 3 is 108, Level 4 is 324, Level 5 is 972, Level 6 is 2916, Level 7 is 8748, Level 8 is 26,244, Level 9 is 78,732, all three times increase."

Cons couldn't help but nodded secretly. No wonder the higher the level of the mercenary group, the more upgraded gold coins it needs. Not to mention the mercenary group with a total of 80,000 people at level 9, but a mercenary group with a level 6 and 2,000 people, as long as the soldiers are of high quality and the generals are qualified, they can completely capture cities and plunder.

But thinking of the limit, Cons couldn't help but frown and asked, "How to get the single digits in detail?

Why not make an integer? It can't be to form a formation according to the military system, right?"

The mercenary leader sneered: "Hey, of course it's not because of the military system. This number is so detailed, it's completely intentional, so that the mercenary group cannot notice immediately after accidentally adding personnel. The guild and noble people are just a time difference, because there is an excuse to punish. If the punishment is not subject to the punishment, there is no other way to go except rebellion. Otherwise, how do you think I can remember so many cumbersome numbers? They are all forced! Every small leader must know clearly the number of people in the group!"

As the mercenary leader complained, Cons got a lot of information and understood the matter, Cons began to make a decision on how to go to the capital of Bick City, the mercenary guild nearest to here.

This PicCity is three days away, and it is a Lily Flower Trading Group that has a snow horse. As for dog sledding, I don’t know how many days it will take.

With this idea, Cons wanted to buy a snow horse from the Lily Flowers Group. Although the money was not a few gold coins, he could exchange the inventory supplies of the entire tavern. Although Fran was happy to replace the account room, he did not have the right to sell horses. Although he could follow the return carriage of the Lily Flowers Group with a few dollars, he had to wait for them to leave. Cons, who was used to being decisive, was unwilling to wait so many days in vain. So Cons had no choice but to have the idea of ​​fifty-five snowdogs.

The idea is not to sell them, but to see how they are used. First of all, the sled needs to be transformed, otherwise, if you walk on an open-air sled for a few days, you will definitely be frozen to death halfway through the way.

It was a good habit for Cons to think of it. He called eight servants and two secret guards at one time, and Cons himself took action, and the eleven strong men began to make dog-pulled sleds.

There are materials in the tavern, and it is very easy to go out to cut a big tree in the snow. As for the owner of this big tree, Baron Lin Xue agrees and doesn't care if he agrees. As for the carpenter? This town has men's ones, and a bag of food can attract a large number.

After several days of production experiments, Cons and his team finally made a frame sled that bends forward and backward, two meters wide, four meters long, half meters high in the middle, half a meter in the front and two meters high in the back.

The old man in the town frowned when he looked at the strange-shaped sled, while the others shook their heads at the sleds that were leaking everywhere.

However, Cons ignored the opinions of outsiders at all and began to use fur to make up the frame with extravagant fur. With the efforts of everyone, a sled that was hard to see appeared in front of everyone.

The mercenary leader looked through the place where the door was obviously in the middle of the sled. He saw that there were several layers inside. The underground layer was two rows of double-pair seats tied with ropes by two pieces of wood separated by one and a half feet apart, with fur on it, which was enough to sit down dozens of people. In the middle was an aisle more than one meter wide, and a rope and fur above the seats and aisle were used to pull out a space for placing supplies. Although people could not straighten their waists when walking, the space was obviously arranged reasonably.

There was a bear skin that could be tightened and lifted in front of the aisle. When I opened it, I saw that it was a driving seat for controlling the snow dog. The mercenary leader tried it and sat there. The seat was also made of ropes and fur, so it was very comfortable to sit on the three of them. There were also several grids and hooks on the side, which I could tell at a glance that they were placed weapons.

Turn around and bend down to the back of the aisle. There is no fur to cover it, and several spaces made of ropes and fur are directly exposed. There are large and small. The larger ones can put down several bags of food, and the smaller ones can pile up coins. They are all very solid anyway. On these grids are a solid wooden board that can stand on one person. Look at the position that there is a window that can be pulled down, which should be the position of looking at the hands and archers.

The mercenary leader who walked out of the sled tried to hold the exposed wooden pole with his hand and lifted it. Although he couldn't lift it, he felt that the weight was not light, and at least thirty or forty snow dogs were needed to pull it.

The mercenary leader couldn't help but say to Cons: "Your sled is arranged reasonably and comfortable to use. The nobles must and like it, but one of the biggest disadvantages is that it is covered with fur. Just a few rockets can burn your sled to ashes. But if it is replaced with wood, you can't use a snowdog to pull it."

Cons smiled and said, "Haha, I have a way to make the Rockets not burn so quickly." As he said that, he signaled the buckets of ** he brought.

"This should be the lime for the wall painting?" The mercenary leader said with some uncertainty. After seeing Cons nodding, the mercenary leader was a little speechless. Brushing the lime on the fur can block the rocket? It's so whimsical.

Soon, under the painting of Cons and others, the sled turned completely white. From a distance, it was white and it was really hard to find it in the snow at first. It seemed that the hiddenness of this thing was quite good.

The mercenary leader unconsciously touched the sled and suddenly found that the soft fur had become harder. Although such a thin hardness could not stop the rocket's puncture, it was unlikely to catch fire in an instant. It was even possible that the white sled would allow the enemy to enter the sled's bow and arrow range before discovering it, which greatly increased safety.

The mercenary leader even thought about whether to propose to the regiment leader to make the sled cart in the regiment like this, or there is no need to be such a trouble, just put on a layer of white cloth.

After the sled was completed, Cons found the small Ferran account room that had not acquired anything except wood because he started the replacement business one day earlier, and discussed how to deal with the inventory in his tavern. Overjoyed, Ferran immediately threw away his arrogant and stinky face, squeezed his smile and started discussing with Cons.

At this moment, anyone knew that Cons was about to leave, and Ferran seized this reason and kept the price down. Until Cons, who was so angry that he almost wanted to rob Ferran, expressed his willingness to give it to the people in the town, and Ferran, who knew that as long as the township had enough food and grass, had no habit of hunting or logging, began to let go.

After all, if the goods he brought cannot be sold out, he will be punished. After all, the mercenary expenses are a large amount of expenses.

After some bargaining, Cons, in addition to leaving all the weapons, several sets of tools and firewood for food and firewood that he could eat and use for eleven people, the inventory in the tavern, including the tavern itself, was thrown to Fern, and exchanged for twelve sets of complete clothes, a large bag of seasonings, and two hundred and fifty-four gold coins.

Of course, before leaving, Cons did not forget to send three bags of food, a pile of bacon and a dozens of gold coins to each slave's house. He did not dare to give more. He would not accept the more Bilintes and thought it was an insult to their self-esteem. In fact, Cons secretly thought that only Bilintes would think so.

When the mercenary leader saw that Cons placed more than ten snowdogs in the middle of the sled corridor and only nearly forty snowdogs pulled the cart, he understood why such a wide corridor was left and why the snowdog's collar was marked with numbers. It turned out that he wanted the snowdog to have a place to take turns to rest!

Jiayi and Cons sat in the driving position, waved their hands at the mercenary leader and others, and swung the reins, dozens of snowdogs immediately pulled hard, which could be considered a huge sled.

The sled slowly left the town, and no one followed him stupidly. As soon as the sled left, the mercenary leader turned around and entered the tavern. After all, everyone just met by chance, and they didn't even get their names. They really had no friendship.

Cons didn't care about this at all, because he suddenly stared at the empty seat next to him, and the demon guard with the code number A Zero appeared and sat in the empty seat.

Cons smiled: "Can you keep up with the sled at full speed?"

Cons's words were not for nothing, because no matter how powerful the Secret Guard is, he is still a human being. Even if he can catch up with the speed of a galloping horse for a while, it will only take a few seconds. It is absolutely impossible to compare with a horse at a long distance. Jiayi and the others cannot chase the snowdog for a long time. Let's see if Jia Ze, with this demonic constitution, has this ability.

Jia Zero shook his head very quickly, making Cons breathe some relief. It may be because the demon is not omnipotent, so he smiled and said, "Since that's the case, you should not be invisible for the time being, be responsible for the alert."

Jia Ling didn't say anything but nodded to show that he understood. Jia Yi was secretly worried in his heart. Although this guy was the most suitable warning candidate, because he was not afraid of cold, hunger, and would not have to die, and he didn't have to sleep. But he didn't know whether this guy really regarded the master as the main person, otherwise he could rest with peace of mind.

As Cons chatted, the sled was moving faster and faster, and soon disappeared into the white snow in the direction of the Lily Flower Group.

Just as Cons left Lintou Town, in a valley somewhere in Baron Linxue's lord, although the snowflakes still covered everything in the valley, the climate was obviously much warmer than outside.

In this valley, hundreds of houses are built in densely with terrain, but a large piece of open space is vacant in the middle, and there are also guard posts at the top and at the entrance of the valley.

This valley did not calm down because of the falling snow. You can see hundreds of people carrying bags of things from dozens of sleds placed in the open space into several huge houses, or pulling hundreds of snowdogs into the small house where dog barking vaguely. Anyway, the whole valley is very lively.

The entrance outside the valley was also lively. From time to time, several dog sleds drove to the entrance and stopped. Then a man wearing a white cloak came out to check it out, and then the sleds drove into the valley.

While sleds entered, almost a large number of sleds left.

But without exception, the inspection of the white cloak is required for inspection, and it is not just an inspection. When you look at the inspection, you will know that the number, name or time of the incoming and outgoing people are recorded, whether it is the number, name or time. From this we can see that the system of this valley is so strict that it has exceeded the army.

I don’t know how many sleds were in and out. A man who walked from the valley to the entrance of the valley from time to time checked the registration situation suddenly asked a post with a notebook. After shaking his head at the post, the man immediately ran into the valley with the notebook.

After a while, nearly a hundred fully armed men rushed out of the huge house in the middle with great momentum, and dozens of men on the other side were already leading two or three hundred snow dogs to the sled in the open space.

When the armed men boarded the sled, the snowdog had tied up and swung the whip. The snowdog immediately rushed out of the valley. This time the post did not intercept it but left.
Chapter completed!
