Chapter 235: On the Importance of Black Technology

The battlefield was soon cleaned up, and a captain-level soldier reported: "Your Highness, in this battle you have captured eighty sabers, ten bows, three hundred bows and arrows, eighty sets of armor, seventy war horses, and some money about five hundred dinars. ”

Mo Shen smiled and said loudly: "You fought well today, bring back the weapons, armor, and horses, and divide the seized money, everyone buy some wine and drink!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward!" the soldiers said happily, although this time there were seventy of them, and the five hundred dinars were enough for everyone to drink, but not every commander was willing to reward them with this money.

Mo Shen smiled and rode his war horse to the captive area, there were about thirty people, these people were soldiers from various countries, wounded and captured on the battlefield.

Mo Shen smiled and said: "You are free now, if you are willing to join my command, you can stand up, and if you are willing to leave, then please do it." ”

Soon, twenty of the thirty people stood up, and the other ten chose to leave, and Mo Shen did not embarrass them, but the ten people who left were all dressed as ordinary peasants.

And each of these twenty men was dressed in shabby armor, and at first glance they were soldiers.

Mo Shen smiled and said, "Very good, from today onwards, you will be my soldiers under Mo Shen!"

"Are you His Highness Mo Shen?" one of the soldiers asked.

"Oh, you know me?" Mo Shen asked with a smile.

"Yes, Your Highness, I used to be a member of your bodyguard, and then I was transferred to Fort Shield, I was knocked unconscious in the battle with the Cato army a few days ago, but I didn't expect to be rescued by you. The soldier said excitedly.

Mo Shen has some memories of his guards, and in terms of the identity arrangement in the system, Mo Shen remembers that his guards are loyal to him and the old king, and Mo Shen checked the attributes of this soldier.

Williams: 25 years old, strength 25, agility 40, good at assassination, intelligence, terrain observation, loyalty: sworn allegiance.

Mo Shen walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "I remember, you are Williams, I didn't expect to see you here, let's go back with me, someone will give him a horse! ”

Williams said movingly: "Your Highness!"

The group quickly returned to the base camp, and as for the statistics of the other soldiers, it was handed over to Sorrento, and in Mo Shen's room, Poro was also very surprised to see Williams, and then after learning about his situation, he said angrily: "Damn Duke Alama, I don't know what happened to the others. ”

Mo Shen walked in with a large barrel of ale and said, "Teacher, don't worry! We will avenge this sooner or later! Come, in order to celebrate today's victory in the first battle, drink!"

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Mo Shen put down the bowl and said: "Williams, I know you, you are good at assassination, reconnaissance, intelligence investigation, observation of the terrain, tell me about the strength configuration of Yongdun Fort?"

"Your Highness, before I left the Shield Fortress, the garrison of the Shield Fortress was about 500 people, but the Shield Fortress had a weakness, that is, the terrain was too low, and directly opposite the fortress was the hillside, if the enemy attacked, it would be difficult to defend with enough archers. Williams said.

Mo Shen lowered his head and thought about something, and Luo Luo said at this time: "My lord, the great commander of the Shield Castle is Montevo........ It is said that he is the illegitimate son of Alama and if we rashly attack his city........"

Mo Shen shook his head with a smile and said, "Who said that I was going to fight him now, I just prepared in advance, teacher, look at the sand table, if the Duke of Allama wants to send an army to attack us, where is the most likely to send troops?"

Poro patted his head and said, "Your Highness, I understand what you mean, Shield Fortress is the closest force to Shadow City on the border, plus the relationship between Montevo and the Duke of Allama.......... But if he wants to attack us, isn't he afraid of being besieged by the Raven Realm?"

"Hehe, of course he doesn't dare now, these days the information found on the side of Xiaolu City, the empire and Fieldway are preparing to declare war like the Lion Realm, so Alama naturally does not dare to send troops to the Raven Realm, but what if the war is over, we have to make plans!" Mo Shen said.

"Your Highness, what you said is true, but Your Highness, we have high mountains and dense forests here, and our archers are strong, even if he dispatches 300 people, he will not want to attack us. Poro said.

When Mo Shen was just about to speak, Sorrento, who had rushed over, said with a smile: "Lord Luo, I guess what His Highness means, it should be that he wants to wait for the other party to take the initiative to send troops and take the opportunity to take the Yongdun Fort." ”

"Hehe, Sorrento, you are so smart, that's right, although my current identity is His Royal Highness of the Lion Realm, but if there is no reason, I can't use troops against a commander, and no matter what the reason, the commander can't use troops against me, if Montvo dares to come over with great fanfare, I will dare to destroy him!" Mo Shen said with a wicked smile.

"By the way, it just so happens that you are here, how about the catapult and crossbow I asked you to make?" asked Mo Shen.

"My lord, you have to say that your idea is very good, after your request to improve the catapult, it is indeed much more practical and mobile than before, but the ballista will take about three days, after all, the crossbow bolt is made of pig iron according to what you said, it takes a lot of time, but recently I am recruiting craftsmen. Sorrento said

"Very well, let's put the catapult business aside for now, and the ballista thing to hurry up! Alright, call Deyol and Teddy over, let's have a drink together." Mo Shen said.

At the same time, in the headquarters of the Gato army, the newspaper said, "Our convoy does not know which force was killed, and the whole team was not spared, all of them were killed in battle, and all the supplies, horses, and slaves transported were all robbed!"

"Hmph, so daring! I'll check it out and see who did it!" said a middle-aged man.

"Big brother, do you think it could be someone from Dawn Furnace City, or someone from Shadow City?" said a young man.

"Big brother, fifth brother, do you think it could be His Royal Highness Mo Shen who has been very popular recently?" said another young man.

The person they called the eldest brother waved his hand and said: "Impossible, our transport team has more than eighty people, and there are still twenty Gatu iron horsemen, unless the other party dispatches an army of two hundred people, it is impossible to end the battle so quickly, so that our patrol team has no reaction."

That kid named Mo Shen, although his development has been good during this time, it is impossible for him to dispatch two hundred people, so I think it should be Xiaolu City's doing, so let the sixth man arrange people to go to Xiaolu City to inquire about the news!" the middle-aged man said.

The next day, Mo Shen specially instructed Luo Luo not to sell the loot for the time being, because he wanted to make the Gatu army chaotic for a while, who would have thought that this matter was done by Mo Shen.

In the Shadow City City Lord's Mansion, Arnolds listened to the report of his subordinates, and the corners of his mouth smiled slightly, it seems that this ally has something, and he can wipe out an eighty-man Gato transport team so quickly, and the other party still has twenty elite iron horsemen, it seems that His Royal Highness Mo Shen has more strength than one hundred and fifty people..........

However, the stronger Mo Shen became, the happier he became, because he felt that this was a great help for him in the future.

In the afternoon, Luo Luo returned from Xiaolu City and found Mo Shen.

"Your Highness, you are right, I found some Gatu people in Xiaolu City, and I am inquiring about the news, but fortunately we did not choose to sell those loot. Poro said.

"Well, teacher, let's not be in a hurry next, and these horses don't go out for the time being, let's slowly look for opportunities, don't make a move in the near future, we only have two tasks in the near future, the first is to recruit soldiers, the second is to sell the goods I got regularly, and let Williams take a few clever boys to Changge Port to inquire about the news!"

"I'll do it!" said with a smile.

Djoul came with an axe.

"Your Highness, when are we doing his vote, these horses are all good war horses, tsk, if enough, I can form a cavalry brigade." Deyol said with a smile.

"Hehe, don't worry, there are things I want you to fight in the future, but in the recent period, let the soldiers under your command be more peaceful, remember not to go out and talk nonsense, the Gatu convoy is not ours, remember?" Mo Shen instructed.

"Don't worry, sir!" said Deyol with a smile.
