Chapter 241 [Chen Xiaolian's Army] (II)

On the way back, some cavalry gave up their horses, and many of them were loaded with booty.

The momentum of the mercenaries was obviously much higher, but Chen Xiaolian felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

The hundred people brought out by themselves are now less than half.

"You're going to have new men. Merlin comforted Chen Xiaolian: "I think you are competent enough to be a centurion, and I will explain this to King William." ”

Chen Xiaolian glanced at the group of captives who dragged the elder behind him, and these guys tied their hands with ropes, like a string of rock sugar gourds, and pulled them for a long time.

From time to time, those mercenaries walked up and kicked a few times.

There was no one around to stop this kind of thing, and some of the Norman Legionnaires were still laughing.

The Taylor Buddha was even more arrogant, he sat on his horse, the blood stains on his armor were deliberately not wiped off, and he looked dirty, but instead he took off his helmet and let his messy hair flutter in the wind.

This guy is still chanting loudly and out of tune. Like a bard.

The way back was a full day and a half. It wasn't until the evening of the next day that I finally returned to Muzhai.

Cavalry from the Norman camp came out to meet them, and led the victorious army back to the camp.

Chen Xiaolian saw King William again—which made him feel a little relieved that King William was safe and sound. It seems that there have been no decapitation and assassination incidents in the past few days.

The spare tire still had strips of cloth tied to his thighs - in fact, he had used healing potions, and the wound had already healed, but he deliberately tied strips of cloth to it so as not to attract attention.

Each of the three was given a war horse, which was given by another cavalryman. Riding on a horse, Chen Xiaolian was a trio. Ranked alongside Merlin and Taylor Ford.

When they entered the wooden village, they were greeted by the cheers of the Norman soldiers.

King William walked out in a row, with a group of generals under his command, expressing his joy.

Without even saying anything more from Merlin, King William directly asked Chen Xiaolian and the three of them to kneel on the ground and draw their swords. In front of everyone, he put it on the shoulders of the three of them and made a canonization ceremony.

Chen Xiaolian and the three have been officially named knights.

They were given separate tents, and each of them could pick two squires from the Norman legion.

At the same time, they have the power to enter the commander's tent and participate in military councils.

......

In the tent, Merlin described the battle in front of all the generals.

He was very honest and not only took himself down the wrong path. The fact that he was almost missed came out, and at the same time, he praised the bravery of Chen Xiaolian and others with great attention.

After hearing this, King William walked down, walked in front of Chen Xiaolian, and looked at the three of them: "I am very surprised! I am also very surprised! You are my greatest gain this time! The best warrior should serve the king! I have great expectations for you! In the future battles, if you can continue to have outstanding performances, then after entering London." I will not be stingy with higher rewards, and more fiefdoms!

That's right. The knights of Galen, and the other two, now you can choose your own fiefdom!"

Fief?

Chen Xiaolian suddenly felt a little funny.

What do you want to do with your fiefdom...... Anyway, when the task is completed, the three of them will leave.

But......

I watched as William beckoned his attendants and brought a rough and rudimentary map of England.

Chen Xiaolian glanced at the tire spare tire, and both of them were a little funny.

"Choose for yourself!" King William laughed: "You can choose bigger!!I believe you will make greater achievements! Maybe you'll become lords or even barons! Now choose first!"

Chen Xiaolian pointed to a location on the map: "Then...... Is this place okay?"

King William glanced at it, slightly puzzled.

He originally thought that Chen Xiaolian would choose a port near the sea or land near the wharf...... Where is more fertile, there is also the receipt brought by the wharf.

However, Chen Xiaolian chose an inland location.

"This is ......" King William was obviously unfamiliar with this place.

"Manchester. Chen Xiaolian smiled slightly: "I think this name is good, and the place is also very good." ”

King William was stunned for a moment. Then he laughed: "Manchester! I like the name! This place is yours! If you have done enough after the war, then there will be more land!"

After a pause, King William pointed to Chen Xiaolian and the others: "From now on, you are not knights from Demacia......! Three knights from Manchester!!"

Chen Xiaolian and the three of them had strange hearts, but they all immediately bowed their heads to express their gratitude.

"Also, the warrior should be the commander!" King William said quickly, "you already have the status of a Norman Legion soldier, and in this battle, you have shown excellent command ability. So, Mr. Galen, you are now promoted to Centurion! Your two brothers will be your deputies!"

As he spoke, he glanced back at Merlin: "Merlin!"

"What do you command, my king?"

"Send a hundred men from the Legion and let my Manchester knights take command! I look forward to seeing more of them in the wars to come!"

"Okay. Your will will be carried out to the letter, my king!" Merlin nodded.

"Uh......" Chen Xiaolian said suddenly, "I have a request, Your Majesty." ”

"Say, my knight!" King William seemed to be in a very good mood.

"Those mercenaries who followed me this time, I think their combat effectiveness is good, and they are ......" Chen Xiaolian smiled: "I have already commanded them to use it, so I want to ......"

King William immediately understood and nodded: "Okay, I allow you to recruit them to be your soldiers, but ...... Mercenaries may not all be willing to become professional soldiers, you can solve this yourself, I will not interfere with you. If you don't have enough of them, let Merlin transfer men from the Legion to you!before the next battle. Your hundred-man squad must be full!"

Then came a celebratory reception.

The nobles' subordinates brought in some wine barrels and some meat, and the noble officers ate and drank separately, and from time to time someone came over to clink glasses and drink with Chen Xiaolian and the others.

First, their strength was recognized by these generals, and secondly, it was clear that King William was very appreciative of these three upstarts—and anyway, those who invaded England with King William. In the future, they will all become the nobles of England, to be precise, they are all upstarts in the future, so there is nothing wrong with each other.

Chen Xiaolian and the tire spare tire had a big meal and drank, and then after the reception, the three of them left the coach's tent.

Of the more than forty mercenaries, a third of them did not want to become professional soldiers...... It was not uncommon for them to become soldiers of the Norman Legion, and after taking their booty, they went back to the mercenary camp.

Only twenty-eight people expressed their willingness to stay and follow Chen Xiaolian.

What surprised Chen Xiaolian was. That big head actually stayed!

"I think I will be prosperous with my master!You are the bravest warrior I have ever met!" The big head patted his ass unabashedly.

After a pause, he looked around with a sinister eyebrow, and lowered his voice: "I heard from my friend that King William gave you a large piece of land! I think you need some clever subordinates to rule your territory after the war. Sir, I ......."

Chen Xiaolian smiled and patted his head: "Then I accept that you stay...... I hope you will survive to the end of the war! and...... If you are lazy and hide the next time you fight. I'll throw you out with my own hands. ”

Merlin was very helpful, and he personally selected eighty soldiers from the Norman Legion. Brought it to Chen Xiaolian.

The eighty soldiers were all good strong men, and they did not use any old and weak people to make up the number.

Obviously, Merlin is returning Chen Xiaolian's favor.

"From now on, you will enjoy the treatment of the Norman Legion, and your food and equipment will be supplied for free, but ...... It's best not to waste your gear. We are a guest army and we are short of supplies, and if your weapons and equipment are damaged, I cannot guarantee that we will be able to replenish them immediately. ”

Twenty-eight mercenaries were also dressed in Norman Legionary payments and had decent linen robes. There are also some squad leaders who have been given leather armor.

"You should name your team. Merlin reminded Chen Xiaolian: "Your own team should have a resounding name! Now you are only knights, and when you become generals and have your own legions in the future, the name of your army should make all enemies fearful." ”

The name of the army?

Chen Xiaolian was stunned for a moment, and then quickly exchanged glances with the spare tire. All three laughed tacitly.

"We are the Knights of Manchester, so our team of 100 is called ......

Manchester United!"

"Manchester United?" Merlin smiled, "Nice name! I hope your name will become Manchester Legion in the future." ”

“...... Trust me, Manchester United, the name is brilliant enough. Chen Xiaolian smiled faintly.

I added in my heart: even after a thousand years.

......

in the valley.

The smell of blood has been blown away by the wind.

There was still red blood on the ground.

At the mouth of the valley, there were many sharpened branches on the ground, and on each of them was a severed human head!

"Really...... It's miserable enough. ”

An emaciated middle-aged man stood at the mouth of the valley, holding a silk handkerchief in his hand, lazily covering his nose.

He was wearing what looked like a leather vest...... This is a protective suit!

Beside him, a blonde woman, tall and athletic, dressed in medieval armor, but unusually gorgeous, with a large bow of strange shape behind her back, a short sword hanging from her waist, was looking at the head all over the ground with cold eyes.

"Our opponents did a good job. ”

The middle-aged man smiled faintly: "I bet there must be game participants among them." Honey, guess who it will be, the Awoken, or a player like us?"

"It doesn't matter who he is, if you meet him, kill him. The blonde woman squinted.

"It's really frustrating. ”

The middle-aged man pouted: "To be honest, if I can choose, I really don't like being in Harold's camp, I heard that King William is cuter." ”

As they spoke, they walked up the hill and looked back.

In the distance, beyond the valley, an army came in might.

The black-pressed team looks like there is no end in sight!

The shield of the cross coat of arms, as well as the sharp sword, shimmered in the noon sun!
