Chapter XXIII Arrangement
Captain Tomman was nervous again. But the "bull's eye" still looked relaxed.
"It's 'my own people,'" said Bull's Eye, "this is the place where Blackstar Fort can make up so many cavalry. ”
When the fruit is not much.
Seventy-two rode at a gallop. First of them were two female knights in steel armor, sitting on two war horses, one black and one white. In the rear, seventy knights rode brown horses, each with a sword, silent. Everyone's riding spears were stained with blood.
"Stop." Lijie, who rushed to the front, pulled the reins.
Rushing through the valley, he chose one group of defeated bandits to pursue, and after the slaughter, he turned back to pursue another. In fact, the knights' war horses were almost at the limit at this time, and Lijie and Melia's horses still had a little bit of strength left.
The seventy-two riders slowly stopped.
Seeing the corpses in the grove, covered in blood, Lijie couldn't help but be shocked. The horse's hooves trampled in a pool of blood, splashing bright red blood.
"Who's the leader?" She shouted right away.
Melia saw the girl at a glance. She understood right away.
"They're mercenaries hired by Eusta and Maciej." "It looks like they helped us keep the bandits at bay." We're late...... The battle is over, Lijie. Melia took off her helmet and let her long aqua blue hair fall apart.
Captain Tomman's eyes widened: he had never seen such a beautiful woman.
"Bull's Eye" stepped forward.
"Two honorable ladies," Bull's-Eye said in a low voice, "we will report to the city of Yolanta at the orders of Master Maciey. Unexpectedly, I suddenly encountered this gang...... Luckily, everyone fought hard to defeat them. ”
Lijie nodded slightly.
"I'm Yolanta, Meria," Melia said lightly, "You're being hired by Eusta and Maciei, but this is my domain after all." You are now directly under my command. ”
"No problem, sir." "Bull's eye" said.
"Very well, then, my first order," Melia nodded in satisfaction, "all the wounded, sit down, and I'll distribute healing potions to you." I will deal with those who can't move. ”
"What?" "Bull's Eye" couldn't help but be stunned.
"Treating them, of course," Melia glanced at him and jumped off her horse, "What are you waiting for?" I don't want to see people fighting for Yoranta look helpless in front of me. ”
"You're ......," Lidge sighed.
……
Less leaning.
Under Melia's arrangement, a large amount of powerful healing potions were taken out of the dimensional bag, sprinkled on the wounds of the wounded like splashing water, and then fed a bottle into their mouths.
Soon, the wounded's injuries stabilized.
"General Bing, everyone has been treated." A soldier said to Melia.
"What about the robbers? A few people are still alive. ”
The cavalryman couldn't help but be stunned.
"Enemy, do you want to be healed too?"
"Just now it was my 'duty,' and now it's my 'favor,'" Melia said, "now that my subordinates have settled down...... Just heal them with the rest of the potion. ”
"Yes." The cavalryman quickly ran to deliver the order.
"Bull's Eye" walked up.
"Thank you for your great kindness, my lord." He said.
"What about the statistics of casualties?"
"Yes. Including this Dimi brother who belongs to the Mercenary Guild, there are a total of seventeen people on our side, eight of whom were killed, two were seriously wounded, and three were lightly wounded......"
"You've also made terrible sacrifices. Can you contact the family members or companions of all the deceased? ”
"Mr. Maciej, sir." "Bull's eye" did not dare to lie.
"Then, I will have Maciej pay the bereavement of the dead, the same as the soldiers under my command. Next ......"
"I'll just say it straight," "Bull's Eye" said, a rare awe-inspiring righteousness, "This is not in accordance with the rules." Although they died in battle on your land, you cannot give us the same treatment as your soldiers. Your real soldiers will be in for a chill. ”
Melia smiled.
"But what if they died through my fault?"
"Bull's eye" was slightly stunned.
"The reason why these bandits have become a crazy rout is because one of my colleagues acted on his own. Otherwise, we will wipe them out in the valley ahead, and you will be safe. Do you understand? ”
"God is above in the clouds," "bull's eye" bowed down as a sign of respect, "they will be grateful to Dade." ”
"May God have mercy on their souls," said Melia, "then, what about the enemy?" ”
"There are thirty-two dead bodies," said the soldier in charge of the counting, "and eight of the seriously wounded by your grace." We don't know the exact number of people on the other side. ”
"There should be no more than ten people who have escaped." Captain Tomman hastened to answer.
"Are you convinced?" Lijie asked.
"I'm pretty sure." Head Tomman said.
"Well, plus the forty-odd heads we just cut off on the other side," Lizzie turned to look at Melia on the side, "most of the ones in the valley of Ga, and those who were chased and wiped out by that idiot, have already been cleared. ”
"More than 1 in 10 people fled. Compared to the advance estimate, it can be called a failure. ”
"I'll settle accounts with someone." Lijie was furious.
……
"It's time to take credit," Melia said, looking at Bull's Eye and Captain Tomman in front of her, "this operation is not included in your hiring costs. Each person who participates in the battle can get ten silver coins. The wounded can stay in my castle until they regain their strength, and I will bear the costs of food, lodging and treatment. You four ......"
Melia set her sights on where the four had originally been. There were more corpses piled up here just now than everywhere else combined.
"The four of you. I could assume that it was the four of you who defeated more than half of the enemies, right? Melia said.
She was also secretly surprised in her heart. I didn't expect His Royal Highness Dimiteo and Victoria to be so powerful without revealing the secret rites.
"Yes." Head Tomman replied.
"What do you want," said Melia with a pleasant face, "tell me." ”
Before Captain Tomman and "Bull's Eye" could answer, Dimi was the first to step forward and speak:
"Below is the guild's 'Wild Rose', and the guild has arranged for me to work in Eusta Manor, and I want to continue to complete this task."
"Of course," said Melia, "what about the three of you?" ”
"I want to go to Eusta Manor, too." The girl said calmly.
"Me too." Tomman connected.
I can't count on this General Melia, Commander Tommen thought. But Victoria can't be cheap, that Imperial boy! Now the girl's body is covered with blood, but for some reason, there is a trace of blood on her forehead, and Victoria, who looks a little tired, is even more "amorous......
Especially when she was playing with her hair: that kind of temperament was almost unbearable.
"I ......" "bull's eye" spoke.
Captain Tomman glared at the "bull's eye" viciously. You took Lao Tzu's money! Don't try to run away alone!
"I'm just like them." "Bull's eye" said obediently.
"Very well, you four go to Eusta Manor and perform your duties as captains of the guard," Melia nodded, "You have done a great job, and when you leave Eusta Manor, I will have a great reward." ”
The four of them promised.
"The other 'Wild Roses' stationed in Eusta Manor are entrusted to this little brother, and if there are other free adventurers who have just arrived, they will also be commanded by the three of you, and you will discuss how to distribute them yourself." Melia said.
