Chapter 100: Buying life money, fighting for the war

The dimly lit tavern, the pervasive smell of sweat, the mediocre nightingale dressed as cheap powder. However, such a place is a good place to find out some gossip, and in such a chaotic and noisy environment, you don't have to worry about any important secrets leaking inadvertently.

At least after a few glasses of hard drink, Tom, the guard of Kurau, lost his nervousness in the face of strangers, his tongue grew thick, and he whispered in a chaotic whisper, "Our captain is a very cold man, and I have never seen another man kill as quietly as he does." After a battle two years earlier, while eating dinner, he cut off the heads of twenty captives. In the weeks that follow, even veterans will be awakened by nightmares.

Yes, everybody was afraid of him, and I was so scared that for a time I didn't dare to look into his eyes—the light gray eyes of a wild beast.

He was as fierce as a wolf to his enemies, but as loyal as a dog to his lords. The lord was not bad to him, especially after he showed a talent for killing. It is only when he looks at the lord that there is a hint of human color in his eyes. Do you believe that such a person actually adopted 6o orphans in his residence?

Those orphans came from different places, different countries, but he took them all in. Although his salary is quite large, it is not an easy task to feed 6o children, and he may spend all the dinars on those little ghosts. When he wasn't fighting, he stayed at home and watched his children - just looking at them coldly, just like on the battlefield. But those children were not afraid of him at all. Just in front of him, slapstick.

Strange? Actually, it's not surprising. Because he was also an orphan adopted by the lord, the enemy army burned his village, and he was hidden by his family in a cow dung heap to escape. He was five years old. Seeing Tom slamming his face heavily on the wooden table and not waking up, Zhu Peng couldn't help but smile helplessly.

He spent time and energy mobilizing the city guards and even loosening his mental defenses with spirits, potions, and a little illusion, but in the end he only got some meaningless information. However, this also means in disguise that the city lord of Kulao did not start to deal with Zhu Wen's actions, otherwise Tom, who is the deputy captain of the city guard, even if he does not know the specific details, he will not be able to touch the slightest rumor. It seems that for the sake of the other mercenaries under his command who are still serving him, the city lord of Kulao chose to forcibly suppress the problem of dealing with Zhu Wen. After all, Zhu Wen's mercenary group named "Black Rose" was completely wiped out for him by fighting, and when making some choices, the city lord of Kulau had to have some scruples.

Zhu Wen is safe and sound. That also means that the middle-level businessmen who were beheaded by Zhu Peng last night are finished. Not only did they lose their lives, but even the family property behind them would be investigated and punished by the nobles of Kulau for collaborating with the enemy, which was not without a small supplement to the war between the two countries, which burned a large number of dinars.

Walk out of the tavern. Under the moonlight, Zhu Wen and Kress were waiting for him with two horses each. Tonight they will leave Kulau, and many times the trees will die and the men live.

"Brother, since the city lord no longer intends to pursue it, wouldn't it be good for us to stay quietly in Kurau and wait for the war to end? Why do you have to walk overnight? ”

"It's always uncomfortable to be caught, and if an unrelated grassroots class like ours wants to get into power quickly, joining the war is the best thing to do. You've almost succeeded before, just a little bit of luck and skill. "Come down at night and go under the walls. After handing over about 300 dinars, Zhu Peng and the others left Kulau through the hidden secret door. In the Great Carradia 6, there were few night sieges in the war, because the forces of both sides were not large, and the night battle was more about the commander's control power.

In the next half a month, Zhu Peng took Zhu Wen and Kress to wander around Kulau, recruiting soldiers from village to village, not just fledgling farmers, because of the fierce battle between Virgia and Kugit, the entire mercenary group of Big 6 is gathering here, Zhu Peng from time to time to recruit mercenary riders and sentinels in the village tavern, although their combat effectiveness cannot be compared with the elite regular army and the salary is expensive, but it is better than the rapid formation of combat ability, It almost meets the qiē standard of ideal cannon fodder in Zhu Peng's mind.

The night's massacre in the city of Kurau brought Zhu Peng more than 6,000 dinars, but as he continued to spend lavishly, an army of mercenary warriors and Vigian recruits was on the verge of exhaustion when it reached about forty-five men. Fortunately, these more than 40 people killed a lot of petty thieves and bandit gangs all the way under the guidance of Kress, which not only slightly subsidized the financial burden of the entire team, but also made many Virgian farmers see blood, these recruits have gradually become stronger after experiencing the battle, and most of them have been promoted to Vigia light infantry in the unique environment of Guò Caladia 6 close to hell in the process of killing, just to equip them, Zhu Peng has more or less broken a small amount of money.

It's just that when the entire war group gradually rolled into the middle and could barely maintain anything except for a slightly larger funding gap, Zhu Peng led the team to live in a Vigia village close to Kugit, and then Zhu Peng was stationed here and did not move, giving a large sum of dinar to the soldiers under his command every week, just raising, but not going out to hunt and kill, and began to sit and eat empty mountains.

In the attic of the village chief's house, a pure white dove lay quietly in the hands of the Taoist. Zhu Peng kept chanting a low incantation in one hand, changing the magic trick from time to time, until the pigeon's eyes gradually became dark and cloudy, and then he opened the window and suddenly released it.

"Brother, it's already thirteen days, if you continue like this, we won't be able to pay our wages in another two weeks. Those high-priced hired samurai were going crazy with laughter just for the money and not working. Yiwen angrily pushed the door in, only to see the scene of Zhu Peng releasing the pure white pigeon with both hands, the girl was a little angry, she couldn't understand what Zhu Peng's purpose was in this village.

"Don't be in a hurry, don't be impatient. I have promised the head of Ismolola to train the villagers against thieves, and the village will provide us with food. This will save you some money...... As for those who think they have the opportunity to just take money and not work, let them have fun now. Zhu Peng's endless words seemed to make Zhu Wen gradually realize something, and the girl looked at Zhu Peng with some suspicion. But he couldn't see any change in mood from the man's indifferent and quiet face. It's just that her somewhat restless heart has gradually settled down.

At the dinner table at night, the village chief, as the most honorable person in the entire Ismolola Village, was responsible for entertaining Zhu Peng, Zhu Wen, and Cress. Originally, the old man was worried that the three men and women who were obviously aristocratic would not be able to accept their own coarse tea and light meal, but after a few days of getting along, the village chief showed that the two young ladies were not picky. And the black man who is obviously the leader of this group of people is even more gentle and kind when he treats people like a spring breeze.

It's just that, like all the little people, most of the low-level officials such as the village chief obviously have the universal skills to climb up the pole. After a few days of getting along a little familiarly. The village chief began to get used to talking with Zhu Peng and the three of them after dinner, although most of them were complaints and appeals, but they also contained some customs and experiences, so after Kress and Zhu Wen were defeated one after another. Zhu Peng can still maintain an indifferent chuckle and listen with relish.

"We are saved. Thank God for His generosity for giving me another chance to be robbed.

Do you know? Ino-sama, I'd rather be killed by them than have to be scared anymore. Anyway, I want to thank you, sir. Our lord will only come when the tax is collected, and the rest of the time we will be left to fend for ourselves, and we have asked him for help, and we have received an echo that the lord's castle needs the protection of the army even more.

Just start fighting. There will be fewer and fewer young people in the village, and there will be more and more robbers outside the village! They will come when the wheat is harvested. They will come when the cows are fattening, they will come when the weather is good, and they will come when it is windy and rainy! Oh, my God! I could almost call out their names one by one!

I was the chief of the village, and the great steward of the robbers, and they would carry me out into the courtyard while I was sleeping, eating, and bathing, and would compare and turn in front of me with knives, and tell the villagers to fill the pockets they had brought with me—yes, just because I was the village chief!

In this way, the robbers beat me, the villagers despised me, and even my wife scolded me because the robbers took her dowry. I deserve it - who made me the fucking village chief! The old man who poured himself a few glasses of ale wine tonight guarded Zhu Peng to spit out bitter water, although his tongue was a little big, and his words were a little confused, but the feelings filled with it were real, after all, this was the great pressure he had been carrying for a long time.

Just when Zhu Peng wanted to comfort him, there was a sound of "fluttering" wings outside the window, and a white pigeon with a cloudy eye entered through the window, and after it landed on Zhu Peng's elbow, a slight red light flew out of its head, and slowly dissolved into Zhu Peng's eyebrows, and its sight suddenly merged into the memory flow of the Taoist.

"Kaba" snapped the white pigeon that had begun to twitch with his fingers, put the pigeon's body on the table of the old village chief who had fallen asleep in a daze, and gently put a comfortable sleeping position for the old man, Zhu Peng instructed in his ear: "Remember to add food tomorrow, and then strode out." ”

That night, a group of forty-eight mercenaries left the village of Ismolola, the last and best memory of many of them.

"A Kugit regiment that had been through several fierce battles and had captured more than thirty men, and had just finished looting the Virginia caravan and village, was on its way home. Defeat them, plunder them, recruit their captives, as long as this battle is successful, our entire team can complete a major blood change, and both the economy and combat strength will be increased several times...... Only allow victory, not defeat. Zhu Peng's muffled words on the horse made Zhu Wen instantly understand all his brother's plans, although it was not clear how Zhu Peng accurately detected the surrounding situation in Ismolola Village, but Zhu Peng was obviously not a person who opened his mouth. Therefore, although this battle may be extremely difficult, it is also an important battle to break the silkworm and transform the butterfly.

"Brother, how many remnants of the Kugit nobles are there on the other side?"

"It's a little more than the number of his prisoners, it's just more than forty people, but counting the wounded and sick among them, thirty people who can really go to the battlefield are considered the limit."

Zhu Wen, who got Zhu Peng's response, only felt that her eyes were dark, and she was frightened.

"Brother. The combat effectiveness of the troops of the genuine nobles is not comparable to that of our patchwork team, and even the lowest-level troops in Kugit are cavalry, and it is not difficult for an elite troop of thirty people to break through a troop of sixty people like ours. This victory is considered extremely small. ”

"I'll cut ten, you cut five, and the remaining fifteen people don't matter if they use this forty-person army to fight them out, the prisoners on Kugit's side are all high-level soldiers, and if you tie them to Kugit territory just for ransom, you can have five or six thousand dinars, let's defeat Kugit and rescue the captives, and instantly have an elite in the true sense." No matter how you calculate it, it's worth it. With Zhu Peng's final finalization, Zhu Wen didn't say anything. I can only secretly sigh in my heart, the benefits of Taiyin are really not so easy to take.

When the great nobles of Kugit were all stoned. When Marquis Nayan set foot on the land belonging to the kingdom of Jifang with his troops, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and the nerves that had been tense finally relaxed slightly. The current battle situation is that Kugit is attacking Vigia. Therefore, the possibility of being overturned on the territory of the other side is extremely small. Now all I have to do is go to a city that I have already owned, and really digest the wealth obtained from this campaign. It's just that Dushiton. Na Yan's beautiful imagination was blocked and trampled by a murderous army of fifty people.

In the process of coming, he defeated a force of more than 20 people, although Zhu Peng's mercenary corps was stronger than the other party, but after all, there were still injuries, in order to replenish the source of troops on the spot, Zhu Peng opened a generous condition to sprinkle a lot of dinar to recruit the eight ringing horses that had just been captured, so that the overall strength did not decrease but increased. Just look at the flashing eyes of those ringing horses. Zhu Peng knew that they would definitely flee once they had the opportunity, and it was difficult to return to their hearts, which was also one of the reasons why Calradia Big 6 was not popular to recruit prisoners as combat units. It's just that Zhu Peng doesn't care about these. Pair to spell out Dushiton. After Nayan's elite cavalry troops, he couldn't even be sure if there were still living people among his subordinates.

"Hello, stranger. I saw you, it was like seeing a vulture hovering on the battlefield, is there anything wrong with you? Sitting on a strong armored war horse, the Marquis of Dushidun took off his helmet, revealing his fat head and speaking to Zhu Peng, with a gentle attitude like a merchant who is more amiable than a nobleman. It's just that the heavy armor on his body reveals some of his information, and he doesn't have the strength of Cheng Dù, and it won't be long before he will be pressed across after wearing this armor.

"Sir, I'm here to make a condition. You'd better take the thirty captives you captured, so that we can both avoid a bloody fight. Zhu Peng, who was riding a black horse, leaned forward, holding the silver cross sword in his left hand, he actually had no hope of a peaceful solution at all, the contradiction between the two sides was the contradiction between plundering and being plundered, and it was impossible to reconcile at all.

"Young man, maybe you have good qualities, but you have chosen the wrong target. As you are hung up and floating above my castle, I hope you won't regret your decision today. After the words, the two of them both turned their horses' heads, and the next thing was to arrange the troops and fight with real swords and guns, the winner won a qiē, and the loser would not even have his own life anymore.

"Mercenary horsemen and mercenary cavalry come with me, and the horses are placed horizontally in front of the infantry and then retreat back to the infantry to assist in the defense, where the infantry defends...... We will win this battle. Accompanied by verbal actions and various hints, Zhu Peng's last roar turned into a catalyst for igniting fighting spirit. The indigenous humans of Calradia Big 6 are more eager to fight than ordinary humans because of the relationship of the demon bloodline, and they are more easily carried away by the enthusiasm for battle, and at this moment, with Zhu Peng's continuous push, the morale of the entire army has been temporarily pushed to the peak, of course, such morale is only temporarily possessed. A truly powerful army needs victory after countless fierce battles to temper its spiritual will to win, and the morale that is forcibly boosted by external forces is hypocritical and weak, and even collapses at once.

The main body of the Kugit Khanate was a nomadic cavalry power, whether it was the almost invincible cavalry of the charging brigade of lancers or the riding and archery skills of fast horses and arrows, it was a very terrifying and distinctive ability. Zhu Peng, the earth from which the reincarnators were born, even had the Yuan Empire in ancient China that dominated the world with cavalry tactics, conquering everywhere in the southern and northern wars, and was called "God's whip" by the Caucasians.

The elite and ferocious Kugit lancers charged in the middle, followed by the scattered Kugit archers and wolves tactically covering the way, and the ferocious tactics of the middle were complemented by the strange soldiers, although it may not be said: "Soldiers, the right and strange complement each other." But this does not prevent these veterans from using their corresponding tactical means.

Nearly twenty Kugit lancers rushed towards them like a spiked wall, and if there were no horses lying horizontally in front of them as a buffer, they would have almost crushed Zhu Peng's infantry in one fell swoop. Zhu Peng, who had planned to kill the exuberant spirit of the Kugit lancers again, didn't dare to wait any longer, and led the mercenary cavalry unit behind him to charge from one side, and smashed into the Kugit cavalry entangled with the infantry like a chaotic battle. The Kugit lancers who have lost their impact can still fight, and the Kugit lancers in the charging state can hardly resist head-on in this big 6. (To be continued!)
