(Cheeky for collection, ask for recommendation!) ）

The whole team finally ran back to the camp, half an hour had passed, almost a third of the people did not run back to the camp according to the specified time, there is nothing to say, these people who did not run back to the camp according to the specified time did not have breakfast, and the first ten people were happy, each with a leg of mutton, a bag of mare's milk wine, and silver coins in their pockets, they were really envious of the others, but those who ran back to the camp at the specified time had breakfast, but there was no rich breakfast for the top ten.

After eating breakfast, according to Qin Dong's arrangement yesterday, it should be that the team should be assembled and start to pay the first and second cavalry military salaries and then take turns to take a holiday, but Zemon, the city lord of Belgrade, has not sent things and money over according to Qin Dong's requirements so far, which makes Qin Dong very annoyed, but the military salary cannot be distributed.

Not long after breakfast, the whole camp sounded the horn of assembly, and after these days of training, the speed of the cavalry assembly had greatly improved, which was not at all comparable to that of the three hundred heavy infantry.

The infantry was in the middle, the cavalry was on both sides, Qin Dong was wearing silver armor and a white linen cloak behind his back and walked up to the high platform, and some long tables had been set up at the front of the stage, which was the table where the centurions of each cavalry team were ready to pay their salaries.

After standing still, Qin Dong said loudly: "Presumably you have received the news, today's military salary, because the cavalry is a mature soldier, each person will be issued one gold coin and ten silver coins per month, the infantry is still a recruit, one gold coin per person per month, I want to ask a question, who sent the military salary to you?" To whom should you be allegiant? ”

Su He and the others immediately said loudly: "Our military salary is issued by adults, and we should swear allegiance to our lords!" ”

When other people heard Su He and others say this, they all followed suit, even those infantrymen were no exception, the people of this era in Europe were still relatively reputable, otherwise there would not be so many mercenaries who collected money to help others fight.

Qin Dong was very satisfied, waved his hand and shouted: "Okay, pay the military salary!" ”

At this time, in the Belgrade City Lord's Mansion, the city lord Zemon kept walking back and forth at the door with his hands clasped together, obviously in an extremely anxious mood.

"Why haven't you come yet?" Zemeng frowned with a bitter melon look on his face.

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and I saw several knights galloping on the street, and when Zemon got closer, he saw that it was Doarik, and immediately put on a smiling face and walked down the steps to meet him.

Ignoring the grievances of the civilians and slaves in the streets, Doarik took his horse to a halt in front of the lord's house, handed the reins to the knights behind him, and walked towards Zemon.

"Oh, General Doarik, you're here, I've been waiting for you for a long time, hurry up, come in with me and eat first!" Zemon was so enthusiastic that when Doarik came over, he took his hand and talked.

Doarik wondered in his heart, how did this old boy find out his conscience today? Usually I have a nostrils facing the sky, why did I suddenly change my face today?

Before Doarik could figure it out, Zemon had already dragged him into the city lord's mansion, greeted him like a distinguished guest, and arranged for two particularly young slave maids to come and serve.

The banquet had already been placed, it was very rich, not only beef and mutton, but also wine, fruits, pastries and other foods.

Seeing that Zemeng was so grand, Doarik suddenly felt a little weak, but after sitting down, he didn't dare to move his knife and fork, and asked: "Lord City, if there is anything, you should tell me directly, I can't eat it if I don't understand!" ”

Zemeng laughed and said, "The general doesn't have to care, the old man and the general haven't eaten together for a long time, right?" Come on, let's have a toast together, General, if I'm not mistaken, you went out with two thousand men the day before yesterday, why did you come back yesterday afternoon with only seven or eight hundred, could it be that you were killed by the Huns outside the city? ”

As soon as these words came out, Doarik jumped up like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on, this was his scar, Zemon didn't even open any pot, poured salt on his wounds, and said with an ugly face: "No, there are still 1,200 people sent out by me for training!" I'll be back in a while, I said, Lord of the City, I'm not under your jurisdiction, you seem to be too lenient, right? ”

Zemeng hurriedly smiled: "General, don't be angry, don't be angry, I'm just a little curious, General, you came back with those Huns outside the city, I don't know what the general thinks of the combat effectiveness of the Huns?" ”

Doarik said casually: "Very strong! ”

"Very strong?"

"Yes, it's strong!"

"What's the law?"

Doarik glanced at Zemon, saw that he was very curious, and felt that this was not a secret, since this old fellow was so curious, so he told him: "Don't look at the number of this Hun army, but the combat effectiveness is much higher than that of other Hun cavalry I have seen, not that their arrows are more accurate, but they are more disciplined, they act like the wind in battle, neat, and their tactics are very flexible, especially their leader, this is a very difficult person!" ”

Doarik's words made Zemon's heart feel cold, it seems that he must bleed heavily, otherwise once he angers the Huns outside the city and is rushed into the city by them, the entire city of Belgrade will be over.

While the two were talking, an officer in armor ran in and shouted: "My lord, my lord, something is wrong, the Huns outside the city called, if it weren't for the quick reaction of the villains who closed the city gate before they rushed into the city, it is estimated that the Huns have been killing in the city by now!" ”

Zemeng felt a chill in his heart when he heard this, his face instantly turned pale, and he barely managed to make a fool of himself, "What are you panicking about?" Butler, butler! ”

A fat old fat man ran in panting: "My lord, you called me?" ”

"How's everything going?"

The housekeeper wiped a handful of sweat beads and said, "My lord, weren't the things ready last night?" ”

Zemeng immediately said: "Quick, bring someone to drag the things to the gate of the West City, and Lord Ben will arrive later!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

After the steward left, Zemon said to Doarik again: "General, you have also seen, this group of Huns is really too arrogant, yesterday I went to send them supplies and labor army, their leader was not satisfied with what we sent, he opened his mouth and asked for two hundred sheep, 100,000 pounds of wheat (about 90,000 catties), 1,000 pounds of salt, 5,000 feet of cloth, 10,000 pounds of pig iron, 100,000 silver coins, you know how difficult it is for me to be the lord of the city, there is no way, you can't watch these Huns come in and destroy the entire city of Belgrade, right?" Ben-sama had to take out all his savings to raise these supplies! General, Lord Ben still has to go and hand over the things to the Huns, so I won't keep you! ”

Only then did Doarik understand the purpose of Zemon's search for him, and dared to ask him about the situation of the Huns outside the city, and then decide whether to hand over this batch of materials. When the time comes, if this old man does not hand over things, the Huns will definitely not give up, and will definitely find trouble with this old man, if the Huns are beaten into the city, then there will be a good show.

It's a pity that Doarik understood a little too late, but he was still indignant in his heart: "You deserve it, you old man deserve to bleed profusely, who told you to take those things to feed the animals yesterday to the labor army?" ”
