Chapter 110: The Guards of Mooncreek Town

A week later, in the prayer hall of the Cathedral of Light, in the presence of a priest of the Light, eighteen members of the Silver Boar were on one knee to pay tribute to Diego? Asnar's oath of allegiance.

"Will you swear allegiance to me in the presence of St. Reginade, and be my loyal guardian for the rest of your life, serving me with your courage, strength, and wisdom, and defending my interests and glory?" Diego asked, holding a ceremonial sword provided by the church, flat on the shoulder of his would-be captain. Since Windsor was venerated as a saint, the Church of Light has allowed people to take oaths in his holy name, and has also recognized that these vows are sacred and protected by the Church.

"Me, Harry? Bergard, in the name of St. Reginader, swears allegiance and honor to our lord Diego? Asnar, loyal to death! Harry swore an oath excitedly.

"I accept your allegiance and will grant you wealth and glory." Diego raised his sword and slapped it on his shoulder. So far, the rite has been completed.

Behind him, the members of the Silver Boar followed suit and swore allegiance to Diego in turn. This was not an oath-taking ceremony to canonize a noble knight, although Diego's viscount status gave him the right to do so. But he still only gave these people the status of ordinary territorial guards, because once they were canonized as knights, it meant that the recipients had stepped into the circle of nobility from now on, and their status was completely different from then on. He didn't want to do it until these people proved their loyalty and integrity.

After a diagonal period, the lord escort of the Moon Creek Lords was finally formed. The name Silver Boar has finally fulfilled its historical mission and has been officially stuffed.

Bart? Leibi stood aside. looked at them with envy, eager to join the team himself. His leg had been completely healed by Masrae's friend. Although he has not yet recovered to his best condition before being injured, it will be some time before he can participate in a fierce battle. But at least normal walking isn't a big deal.

What made him envious was not only the status of the territorial guards, but also the generous salaries of these guards.

According to Diego's announced salary scale, captain Harry? Bogard was paid a hundred gold coins a year. And Apricot Elder Edith? Blom and Christopher? Farrar gets sixty gold coins a year, while ordinary guards get thirty gold coins a Chinese New Year's Eve. With different status and ability, the remuneration package also varies.

However, in the Kingdom of Stormwind City, thirty gold coins a Chinese New Year's Eve is already a very good salary, and almost everyone is satisfied. You know, throughout the kingdom, those yeoman farmers who own land. After a hard year, after removing the layers of taxes paid to the lord and the kingdom, the best years are only a mere ten gold coins.

Moreover, for the former mercenaries, although these incomes are not as good as being mercenaries, they can make some extra money from time to time, but they are better than ensuring income in drought and flood, and they are relatively safe, at least they don't need to be born and die, and they live on the knife every day, right?

"Don't be in a hurry. When you are fully restored, I will consider accepting your allegiance. "Looking at Bart who is looking at himself feverishly? Leibi, Diego reassured. He didn't say this casually, but really thought about Bart? Problems with the use of Leibi.

He plans to have Bart join the convoy as well. Because it wasn't necessarily a good thing that the convoy was full of former Silver Boar members, he had to consciously mix sand into it so that they wouldn't condense into a letter that could compete with him. And that's it. Harry alone? Bogard's devout belief in the Light may not be guaranteed. If it weren't for the fact that Fan Golei's combat power was too inferior, he would even want to stuff the gnolls into it.

Of course. The only requirement for this is that it must not affect the combat effectiveness of the escort team, so he plans to let Bart? Leibi joins in after the battle has been restored. As for Van Gogh. Then wait for when he has that ability, but in the bottom of his heart, Diego still has some expectations for the internal affairs ability of the jackals.

After receiving Diego's assurances, Bart? Leibi suddenly became full of motivation, and he wished that his legs would recover immediately' Diego noticed that after this period of care, Bart? Leiby looked much younger than he had been in his worst form, and Diego found that he was in his thirties, far from the middle-aged man he had originally thought.

However, Diego didn't care too much about this, he was busy preparing to get up and go to the western wilderness, because the Duke of Berval's letter asked him to leave.

Before, Diego had been worried about what to prepare, but now that he has subordinates, he will explain these troubles to Harry? Bergard went to worry about it. For Bogard, who was the captain of the Cavaliers, these things were not that difficult to deal with.

However, for the first errand he received, the new captain of the guard still took a lot of effort to prepare. Almost noon the next day, Bergard came to Diego with a list.

To be honest, Diego almost jumped in surprise when he saw this list for the first time, not that it cost too many gold coins, or that there were too many types on it. Instead, I was surprised that this list was too short, and there were only a dozen items in total. Diego took a brief glance and saw that the most common supplies on it were food and weapons.

Bogard had to give his lord a lot of words to explain why he had chosen it.

After Burgard's explanation of the list, Diego's thoughts gradually became clearer.

In fact, this time in Yuexi Town, there are still some ideas to follow. Diego wants to recapture the town of Moon Creek, the first thing to do must be to appease the people, according to the three principles of the jackals, the first must be to let them be fed, so a large amount of food must be prepared, although the Western Wilderness used to be the big granary of the entire Storm Kingdom, but that was before, and now the people who are plagued by the Brotherhood of Defia are living in the Western Wilderness, and it is difficult to even feed the locals.

The second is that the young people in the outcasts of Stormwind must be armed, otherwise the escort of these twenty people alone may not be able to drive the Brotherhood of Defia away, and neither can he and Masrae. Moreover, the large number of displaced people who have nothing to do and no food and clothing is a great source of instability, which, if left unchecked, may push them into the arms of the Brotherhood of Defia.

After Bogard's explanation, Diego understood why there was so much food and weapons on the list.

However, in order to save money for the boss, Bogard ulcered barley and oats without husking and bran, these coarse foods were cheap, but they were not common, and for the hungry homeless, there was nothing to be picky about, and it would be nice to fill their stomachs.

As for the militia, a simple oak spear and a single layer of cowhide leather armor would have armed them, as they were faced with a mob of mobs and no better equipped.

Although these oak spears were cheap, Diego's large purchases caused a lot of fluctuations in the arms market, and even the Duke of Berval sent someone to inquire about it, but after finding out that Diego was not planning to rebel, the Duke ignored it and let it go.

With Bogard's hard work, the items on the list were gradually prepared. Although it cost nearly 10,000 gold coins, this is nothing for Diego, who has deep pockets, and it is enough to pluck out the leg hair.

These supplies were loaded with fifteen wagons and formed a convoy. If it weren't for Diego's tempting fare, I'm sure no driver would want to make this trip, you know, these days, the western wilderness is notoriously uneven, maybe you won't be able to come back if you don't want to.

However, due to Bergard's clever operation, this freight did not come out of Diego. Because before leaving, two caravans to the western wilderness approached and asked for a companionship. Under the "persuasion" of the gold coin and Bergard, after paying a sum of escort fees, Diego had to "reluctantly" agree to their joining.

In this era of rampant banditry, for caravans, there are definitely few people who will not dare to go on the road. If it weren't for the "coincidental" encounter with Diego's convoy, the merchants would often have several caravans together and hire a mercenary to protect them before they dared to set off. Now that they encounter this lord's guard, which looks quite strong, the merchants are simply overjoyed, as long as it is safe, who is not to give the escort fee?
