Chapter 0088: New Klegon Village
As soon as Count Ode's party reached the junction of the border of the Cregan territory, they were stopped by a troop of cavalry.
The first young girl was wearing a well-fitting leather armor, and the rest of the armor was leather except for the iron armor that was the vital part.
Leather is more in line with the movements of the human body and is also more snug to the body.
This makes the girl look athletic and her movements are cleaner.
This is a specially designed body armor designed by Gregor for his adopted daughter Julie Cregan, using leather instead of armor, reducing weight, making Julie's movements more agile and her strength more stretched. But in the critical part, it is iron armor, which takes into account safety.
Julie Clegane was pleased with her armor and was more respectful and loyal to her cheap father.
Although her adoptive father, Gregor, was arrogant and unnegotiable, Julie was very touched by his attention to her weapons and armor and other details. Even Thomasman, the biological father, has never had such meticulous concern for Julie in her life.
"Count Ode. The maiden rode in the middle of the road, with a short sword hanging from her waist, a longbow on her back, and a pot full of quivers, and did not give way, "Are you passing through or are you looking for Sir Gregor for something?"
The girl has seen many nobles in Kaiyan City as a Gregorian cavalryman, Count Ode is a big man in the West, and Julie knows that the person who came is Count Ode by looking at the port battleship map on the flag.
Julie blocked the road, and the cavalry behind her was arranged in a fan shape, and it looked well-trained. These cavalrymen all had unkind faces, and their fierce spirit seemed to be innate, and their fighting spirit could not be concealed.
But this was rude to the Count.
Count Odd stretched out his hand to stop the centurions from scolding, and said with a smile: "Little girl, are you Julie Clegane?"
At the ceremony of adopting a daughter in Tywin in Castle Rock, Earl Odd had already learned that Gregor and Chariot were in conflict because of an adopted daughter who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. The adopted daughter's name is said to be Julie Clegane.
Count Odeh was a careful man, and he remembered the name.
Julie's bearing is not lost to any centurion, her life is an extra gift for her, her heart has changed greatly after experiencing the nightmare of the silver mountain, she responded lightly: "Yes, my lord!"
"Julie Clegane, could you please take me to your father, Sir Gregor Clegane? β
"Of course, sir. Allow me to send troops to inform my father in advance. β
"Then send someone. Count Odd smiled.
Odd did not have the slightest count of frames, was approachable, modest and courteous, and showed good upbringing. He also showed a rare affinity for those of lower status than him, even civilians. This is very difficult to see among the aristocracy.
Julie didn't speak, but tilted her head slightly, glancing at one of the cavalrymen beside her, who immediately threw off her horse.
Count Ode paid attention to these details, these bandit-like cavalrymen had a lot of respect for Julie. This was not surprising to him, she was Gregor Gregor's adopted daughter.
"Please, Earl!" said Julie, pulling her horse away, and the cavalry behind her parted to make way for the avenue.
The small cavalry was well-trained, well-disciplined, and moved in a uniform manner, but the count was not surprised.
The Gregotto army was absolutely top-notch, as had long been proven in the city of Kaiyan, for disobedient soldiers and ruffians were either obedient like children and hard working like ploughing oxen in his hands, or they had already been killed by him.
Those who dared to serve as soldiers under Klegane, except for the people in the territory who could not escape the military service order, the other sources of soldiers were either not normal people, or murderers and serious criminals who were hiding in Tibet. Even if he is a normal person, because of the territorial law and the military service order, Gregor can't recruit anyone other than the territory.
All lords' sources of troops come from within the territory, and if the number of troops in the territory is small and insufficient, they can only spend money on mercenaries, which is why mercenaries are popular in this world.
Count Odd walked forward, and in addition to the centurion and dozens of guards, there were two carriages, and in the carriages were the ten housewives that Gregor had sent to ten taverns to teach the cooks how to make noodles.
The village of Klegon is under construction, rows of new houses can be seen from a distance, and the tall church stands out, and the tower of the temple stands on top of a huge seven-pointed star representing the faith of the seven gods.
At the entrance to the village of New Klegon, the Count's party was again stopped by Dunsen, who was not on horseback, and was accompanied by four of his guards.
When you are promoted from a soldier to a knight by a lord, you have the power to have a squire, ranging from one to several.
"Lord Earl, your lord has commanded that only you and the centurion should enter the village, and the rest of the brothers must stay outside. Dunson said grinningly. He pressed his hand to the hilt of his sword and looked rude. The four guards beside him were also dog-fighting, and their expressions were proud.
The earl, who was very well cultivated, also couldn't hold his face, his face sank, and he was about to scold, when Julie Clegane, who was escorting the earl, interjected: "Lord Earl, there are a lot of building materials in the village, the space is small, and the road is narrow, please dismount the earl and enter the village with the centurions." The rest of the guards, please stay and drink first. Don't worry, Lord Earl, I will arrange for someone to accompany these brothers, and when someone comes, unload the carriage first, and lead the horses to feed the fodder. β
"Yes, Captain. β
The cavalry beside Julie dismounted with Julie, and the housewives of Clegon in the carriage got off together, and Julie came up to take the reins of the earl's horse, and the earl held a sullen breath in his throat, but he couldn't get out of his horse, so he had to dismount.
Dunsen's rudeness and Julie's handling are two stark contrasts.
If Sweetmouth Raff were here, he would surely make the Count laugh and dismount into the village. But Dunson couldn't do that, his sword was dozens of times more powerful than his mouth.
In the past month, under the influence of Jenny Westerling's little mother, her adopted daughter Julie has learned a lot of things, about aristocratic etiquette, about dealing with people, about verbal response, Julie has learned very quickly.
The Earl dismounted: "Dunson, even if I enter Kaiyan City, Duke Tywin will not let me dismount early. β
Deng Sen said stiffly: "Lord Earl, Lord Gregor has an order, and I can't do anything about it. β
"Humph!"
The Earl led four centurions into the village of New Klegon with Dunson.
Along the way, the new houses are neatly built and tall, with small windows and high doors and huge stone courtyards. Livestock pens, wells, and mills are scattered in between. The roads are connected to each other, and the front and back are evenly spaced, so you can see that they have been carefully planned.
This kind of construction is not surprising, architecture has its own achievements in this world, but these constructions took place in the Clegon Territory, which was somewhat unacceptable to the Earl.
After walking more than half the way, he was greeted by a group of people, one in the center was tall and mighty like a giant, and the people around him seemed to be from Lilliputian.
Gregor Clegane came to greet the Earl with his father-in-law, Gavin Westling, his fiancΓ©e Janine Westerling, the knight Polivier, and the Clerk-General's Notepad.
Lord Magic Mountain came to greet him in person, which made the Earl's depressed mood much better at once.
