Rise of the Lord of Mount and Blade

“Come…have another drink…Richard, if you can afford me, you can have another drink with me!”

Looking at him almost lying on the table Karel, who was still stubborn to continue drinking, Richard’s mouth twitched. Unexpectedly, the old man’s alcohol volume was so bad that he only drank it for less than two hours.

During the drinking period, he wanted to play with Richard’s words, but he was fooled by Richard haha. In the end, he simply changed his strategy and tried to get Richard drunk, and then took advantage of the drunk state. He said, but he didn’t expect that his drinking capacity was worse than Richard.

A joke, you must know that Richard had suffered from high levels of alcohol in the celestial dynasty in his previous life. Just this cricket medieval mild wine, isn’t he as easy as drinking water?

Although Karel’s intention was seen through by Richard with no difficulty, he was not at all and therefore underestimated the old man in front of him. After all, the other party was an old captain who had been in Kalad’s inner sea for many years. Maybe The salt he ate was more than the bread Richard had ate. If he was underestimated by this small mistake, Richard wouldn’t even know what day he died.

Especially when he is going to the Alessai Khanate on the other side’s merchant ship two days later, people are under the eaves. If you anger him, everything will happen on the other side’s turf. It may happen.

For the sake of caution, Richard also pretended to be drunk, called the guys in the tavern, and helped Karel walk to the newly opened room on the second floor of the tavern, and settled the old captain in it. He went to sleep in another room.

In the morning of 2nd day, when Richard woke up and walked out of the room, he happened to meet the guy who helped Captain Carel with him yesterday. The other party repeated the words left by the old captain to Richard, Carel I apologized to Richard for his lost self-control yesterday, and also asked Richard to board the boat on time in the morning the day after tomorrow to avoid missing the sailing time.

Richard thought for a while, since Carrell will act like his own words, it means that this person still has a certain threat to him, if something goes wrong on the ship, then he can only rely on A soldier in Connie helped himself. In order to avoid getting caught up in the enemy, he felt that he should recruit some mercenaries before boarding the ship to expand his strength.

So, when Richard used to buy wine, he asked the tavern Boss, who claimed to have a lot of information in the city, about the mercenaries in Ortisia, and faced the extra “hard expenses” given by Richard. , Boss enthusiastically pointed to a few big men in armor sitting in the corner of the tavern, and explained their identities to Richard. In addition to the few big men, there were a few who still lived upstairs and did not get down. The mercenary was also spoken by him.

The types of units that can be hired in the tavern are familiar to Richard. The Imperial Armed Traders and Swordsman are very common in the empire. These two types of mercenaries are also very valuable. The former is two hundred dinars per person. , The latter has four hundred dinars per person, and Richard’s worth in this World is only 3125 dinars. If he recruits all the soldiers that can be hired in the tavern, he will become a pauper.

The high price of mercenaries is evident.

Richard considered for a while and decided to hire three Imperial Armed Traders and a Swordsman for a total of 1,000 dinar. These four soldiers will not join Richard’s team immediately after accepting employment. He Gather the four people together and let them find an excuse to board Carrell’s boat, pretending that they don’t know Richard, and if something goes wrong, they can beat Carrell completely unprepared.

He didn’t think about it. In case Karel was not hostile to him, all he did was to fight the air.

After hiring four novices in the tavern, Richard asked the Boss again how to get to the market, and then went to the market in the town alone, leaving him in the item column. All of the spoils of war were sold for money.

When he was in Lagota City before, he only remembered to buy dry food. When he remembered to clean up the spoils of war, he had already walked far away, so he could only come to Ortisia. deal with.

Walking back from the market, Richard sold the useless items in the item column 857dinar, plus the original assets is 2982dinar, he roughly calculated it, if all were used to hire Cousy The special herdsmen can at least pull up a team of 149 people.

However, he thought about it again. Since he has to pass the Alessai territory on the way, he should also hire a few Alessais. The high-level Alessais are also very powerful. Like what Mamluk heavy cavalry and court guards, Richard’s heart is most inspired by the Mamluk heavy cavalry. It serves as a prototype reference to the Egyptian Mamluk heavy cavalry in Earth’s history. They have made great achievements and once beat the invincible Mongolia. The cavalry was a rare defeat in the Mongolian Western Expedition-although the Mongolian army’s disastrous defeat was also due to the commander’s desire to return to the east to fight for the sweat.

If you hired Alesai, after returning to the main world, Richard might still find an excuse to explain why there are these desert-style soldiers in his army. This is a more troublesome problem. . In the main world, only the desert continent in the southern part of the West Guinness peninsula separated by a strait has desert peoples coming and going like wind, and Richard can use them as a cover.

……

One day later, Richard and Connie boarded Carrell’s ship before the merchant ship departed. The two horses they brought were also stolen by Richard. They were taken on the boat together, but the horses and the sea were obviously not on each other. After the two horses sailed, they obviously showed irritability and malaise-of course, I know these two words are opposite, but the truth is Indeed, after experiencing the irritability of Early-Stage, they fell into a state of malaise. They quietly lay on the hay spread on the ship board, making a loud nose from time to time, and their bodies swayed with the shaking of the ship.

Seeing that Richard was worried about the two horses, the experienced and knowledgeable Carrell patted his shoulder, comforted: “This is all normal. I can bet a dinar with you, etc. As the ship sails into Laziz Harbor, they will soon be full of blood and come back to life.”

“I hope so.” Richard’s worried gaze still did not leave his mount Varandia, if Both of these horses died of illness on the sea, and he was at a loss. After Laziz, he had to spend extra money to buy horses for him and Connie.

“Hey, relax, my boat has transported many horses, most of them behave like your baby horse, but after getting off the boat, they quickly become alive and kicking. If you don’t believe it, our boat will just go in to replenish supplies when passing by Sanara. Then you can take your horse down and take a stroll.”
