Chapter 174: Longing

Is there really a reward? Or are they real gold coins?! Mario was shocked. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

You must know that it doesn't matter where it is left in the entire Roman Dynasty, but if there is a war merit or reward, it is also a knight. As a veteran with more than a decade of experience, Mario knows this well. As for people like him, and peasant cannon fodder who is not even a private soldier, it would be good to be able to clean up the battlefield after victory, and then have a sumptuous feast, and here, you have to count on the character of the lord.

When war comes, the lord will make a promise in order to mobilize the lord. But few people will say exactly how much a certain head is worth like Li Lin......

Most of the nobles are very reserved, and the discipline is almost non-existent, once it is not clearly explained, then the so-called reward will become a reward for a few people such as knights, and the vast majority of low-level soldiers can really only eat with their mouths.

But once a person like Li Lin is as specific as how much a head is worth~~ afterwards, how much will he save face, right? Mario was a little unsure.

In the evening, as the training ended, Raff and the others dispersed. Many peasant soldiers anxiously gathered around the chief Mario, asking him about his commitment to the lord, and the eager eyes made Mario, who had always been tough, have to get serious.

On top of that, Mario himself was also interested in exchanging the battle exploits announced by the lord for gold coins.

Mario, who had been a knight's personal servant for a long time, didn't want to, he understood what kind of terrifying strength the official knight had. Killing a regular soldier grants one silver coin. Regardless of the type of troops, there is no limit to the number, if they are facing the same peasant soldiers who are cannon fodder, after a war, they can kill them with their own hands......

It's a little exciting to think about it this way! Mario decided to find a time to listen to the Knights, even if the reward is discounted, this is a very heartwarming reward!

Usually as a knight's servant, Mario looks beautiful in front of outsiders, but his family knows his own affairs, and in the Roman Dynasty, the so-called war dividends have never been something that he can touch with almost as many knights as he wants. He has been a knight's personal servant for more than ten years, and he has not saved any money, otherwise he would not have wandered around with the refugees after being injured.

He also has his pride, even now, although Mario recognizes the combat power of the mud-legged people around him, he still feels that these greatly improved combat power are all brought by the weapons issued by the lord. Well, as a former servant, he had reason to look down on the peasant soldiers.

At first, Mario who came to Li Lin's territory was just getting by, although he also saw a different side of Li Lin from other nobles in the territory. But at most, this turned the original cold bystander into a trace of recognition.

When he was drafted into the militia, Mario only had a messy attitude, and that only gratitude was enough for him to sell himself. After all this, he knows very well that no matter what kind of war, it is never the stage for a small person like him.

Until he saw with his own eyes the kind of return and convenient hand crossbow (the transformed crossbow box and crossbow arrows, similar to the magazine with the gun), the crossbow arrows shot out are not as fast and powerful as the most important thing~~ Mario once again has a new seriousness about the rumored 'very heroic' own lord, this kind of hand crossbow with a very small voice and more dexterity, in addition to not being able to pose a threat to the official knight, I am afraid that it is his leader back then, a high-ranking knight Hu Servant inadvertently, will also suffer a big loss, right?

At least when Mario thinks that he is in good health, even if he is wearing armor, it is difficult for him to kill from ten peasant soldiers armed with crossbow arrows!

"I wonder how the lord's private soldiers are being trained?" Mario lowered his head and took a sip of the broth, carefully looking at the group of men in black on the other side of the cafeteria. Anyway, as the most trusted elite of the lord, they should have better equipment, right?!

Even the legendary demonic weapon, Mario remembered the magic sword that pierced him in the battlefield~~ Shaking his head, he no longer thought about the original past with a sigh, and following the voice, he looked at the crowd outside the cafeteria.

Due to the distance of the quarantine, Mario didn't know what the other party was doing, but he didn't eat at this time, and escorted several carriages through the manor......

"How are the supplies prepared, we will leave in a few days" Li Lin received another list from Landa and asked.

One light and one dark preparation, it's not that Li Lin can't believe people, but there are some things that are really not suitable for Ajiefu to know.

Well, let's put it this way, those materials are quite sensitive~~

"It's almost ready." Boba Landa smiled charmingly.

Speaking of which, the conscription system of the Roman Kingdom is quite interesting.

According to the old practice of the Romans, after the king issued a summoning order, the armies of the nobles from all over the country had to bring their own grain to the assembly place, and as for how much food they should bring, it depended on how far away the gathering place was, and all the expenses in the process of arriving were the obligations of the nobles for His Majesty the King.

This kind of rule of the Roman Kingdom is really a bit fucked, especially for the lords who are geographically remote. Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine why the nobles of Loren City were so reluctant to see the orders of the royal capital.

In comparison, the lords of the royal capital, who have been marching with the king from the beginning to the end in the royal capital, do not need to spend even a single grain and supplies......

Of course, this is only theoretical, because no king will let his nobles station too many soldiers in the royal capital, and in fact, most of the time, the nobles of the royal capital also need to draw troops from their own territory.

When it comes time to get together with the king, the king will have to pay for all the food of the noble army himself, so don't be surprised to see some lords hurrying up for two days and doing a day's rush, because it may not be that the lord is too 'loyal' to the royal family, but also that the lord is a poor man and is about to go bankrupt!

This strange rule makes the war of the Roman royal family always not long, except for the beginning of the country, among so many kings in the future, the longest is only a 102-day war, known as the 'Hundred Days War'.

The aristocratic army that gathered at that time not only ate His Majesty's grain, but also moved a lot of royal goods as food to pay off debts.

Generally speaking, this system is very effective in restricting the right of His Majesty to levy lords from all over the world at will, and it can be regarded as a great contribution to the current internal stability of the kingdom.
