Chapter Ninety-One: First in the City
readx;
Within a few days, Count Endrida of the Single-Tree City personally sent his men to the dormitory of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, and took a letter of agreement about the major representatives in the Single-Tree City for Fide to sign. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The content of this agreement is probably an agreement with the Potato Mercenary Group, such as food supply, weapon maintenance and supply, war horses, recruitment matters, and mercenary missions. Most of the agreements were made in good faith, as the Potato Mercenary Group had become the largest mercenary group in Dumu City, so all parties were willing to negotiate business with the Potato Mercenary Group. As early as the past, when the Potato Mercenary Group was in the Holy Light City, large and small matters had to be handled by Fed and Kesi together, and although those trivial matters were not difficult, they were also very troublesome. Later, after Reeves arrived, it made it much easier for Fidel, and when the short merchant Vittorio became the deputy leader, the potato mercenary group would not suffer in this regard, and they could get the best service at the lowest price.
The person in charge of the Mercenary House will also send out personnel in the morning and evening of each day to deliver some mercenary tasks to the Potato Mercenary Group for Fide to choose from. Fidel had assigned these small tasks to a few captains and asked them to take them on at their discretion. For example, some tasks such as escorting caravans and protecting nobles only require a small number of mercenaries, some tasks of capturing beasts and assisting the inhabitants require only a small number of people, and small tasks such as debt collection will also be accepted, and many mercenaries are idle anyway.
Now it is the autumn harvest season, and Dumu City also coincides with a bumper harvest this year, many mercenaries have been invited to harvest grain together, and the potato mercenary group has also sent people. Feder originally thought that he would be resisted by the peasants, but he didn't expect that with the help of Vittorio, Newt and Herman's "joint efforts", the notoriety of the potato mercenary group was really not so stinky. As long as you don't loudly claim that you are a mercenary in front of the other party to fight against the Iron Ore Mountain Range, you won't be scolded by those peasants.
It is worth mentioning that in this important city with more than 100,000 inhabitants, there is only one mermaid mercenary group that is resident here in terms of fame and mercenary number of mercenaries comparable to the potato mercenary group. This mercenary group numbered more than 1,000 and was well-known in the Three Duchyes, but it was far less powerful than the potato mercenary group that had participated in the Battle of Dorett - the two mercenary groups that survived that battle were combined into one, which greatly increased the strength of the potato mercenary group.
Dade had not met with Fed, and the mercenaries on the other side of the city were also stationed on the other side of the city, and the two mercenary groups did not interfere with the water of the well. The subordinate of the Count of Endrida told Fide that the head of the group was present when the multi-party agreement was being drawn up, but the other party did not seem to care about the more favorable and convenient agreements.
Although Fei De doesn't like to talk to others too much, he still has a way to deal with them, and if the other party comes to the door, then he will still treat him politely.
"Do you think that Dade, the leader of the mermaid mercenary group, will be targeted by the rebels?" Luca asked Feld and Patrick after the Earl's men had happily left with the signed multi-party agreement.
"It's hard to say, we're not familiar with that mercenary group," Patrick opened the roster of mercenaries in the Principality of Mageni, which was sent by the person in charge of the mercenary house in Dumu City, "The head of the regiment Dade is a female mercenary in her forties, her husband and children are ordinary people, and she lives in the city, so she can be regarded as the head snake here." But they don't seem to be hostile to us, even if we are above theirs. ”
Every city will have a local mercenary group, and the potato mercenary group has only begun to slowly integrate into the Dumu City until now. Signing a multi-party agreement is the first step, and trying to establish a partnership with the mercenary group here is the second step. When they were in the Holy Light City, the mercenary group there was both hostile and good-willed, but the potato mercenary group used their actual performance to tell everyone that they had the strength to become the most powerful mercenary group in the city.
Fei De clearly knew that although the number and fame of the potato mercenary group had risen now, there was still a little gap compared to the mermaid mercenary group that was born and raised here and had taken root for many years. Moreover, the nobles of Dumu City chose their foreign mercenary group to do that kind of "dirty work", and they would also take into account the influence of the mermaid mercenary group in the local area.
As soon as they heard that Fidel had confirmed the signing of those multi-party agreements, the captains and Reeves all came to Fidd's room one after another to congratulate Fidel. Although their reputation seems to have been influenced by the heroes of the previous Iron Ore Mountain mission, most of them hope to be able to put down roots here and strengthen themselves in the Duchy of Mageni, and after a period of silence, the potato mercenary group has begun to have fewer vicious rumors.
Noor: "From now on, we will be the number one mercenary group in Dumu City, just like the servant mercenary group in Holy Light City, we will definitely have a lot of money!"
"Money must be indispensable, and it is also the efforts of Reeves and Vittorio that the price of these horses and equipment has been reduced so much. Selena smiled and agreed.
Nur: "Since there is more money and things are cheaper, then we can continue to expand the scale?! Why don't we recruit enough people to recruit 3,000 people?"
Reeves shook his head: "We can't recruit that many troops now, and Dumu City is not a megacity, if there are too many people, there will be a surplus problem." ”
Deputy Commander Vittorio was still on leave and did not return to witness the first steps of the Potato Mercenaries taking root in Dutim City, but Fidel knew that he had a part to do.
"That's good, Fidel!" Squadron Leader Jasmine was unceremonious, and walked directly to Fidel's side and patted Fidel's head, "I was on the same level as you at the beginning, but fortunately, I have a unique vision and joined our Pear Blossom Mercenary Group into the Potato Mercenary Group, look! We are getting stronger and stronger now." ”
Feder didn't mind someone he trusted being close to him, and he nodded in response, "Yes, Captain Jasmine's support was important at the beginning. ”
The delighted crowd began to plan how to celebrate their success, with some captains proposing to hold a carnival in the camp, while others suggested that all mercenaries be rewarded with bounties. Fidel did not join in the discussion, saying that all the celebrations were fine, but there was no need to be too extravagant, after all, they were now hostile to the rebels of the Duchy of Mageni, and difficult tasks and dangerous situations could arise at any time.
"Captain, this is a great joy, if Captain Ayana..." Winoti felt regret as soon as she said Ayana's name, and the other captains reacted very quickly, and instantly pulled away from the topic.
Feder didn't respond, just crossed his hands and propped himself on the table on his elbows, then pressed his chin against his own and quietly watched the various captains who were discussing with each other.
In the evening, Feder also heard another good news - the lord of Fontale City, Lady Eli, had sent 100,000 gold coins to the Potato Mercenary Group! The envoy of Fontale City who sent the gold coins said that the Iron Ore Mountain Range was also a problem in Fontale City, and Miss Maev had left there safely under the protection of the Potato Mercenary Group, so the 100,000 gold coins should be regarded as Field's due reward. Fed remembered that Reeves had brought him 50,000 gold coins from the Lunar Shield Mercenary Regiment, and at that time, for the Potato Mercenary Regiment, which only had more than 200 people, 50,000 gold coins was an astronomical amount. And now that hundreds of thousands of gold coins have been credited, it is estimated that the potato mercenary group will earn more gold coins in the future, but a trace of uneasiness arises in Feide's heart.
"Captain, you haven't slept yet?" Lukka stood outside the door of Fidel's room and saw Noor standing beside the emissary of Tower City.
"Yes, what's the matter?"
Lukka looked at Nur and the messenger before he said, "I wanted to give it to the regiment commander tomorrow." Lukka walked slowly over to Fid and carefully pulled out a letter, and Noor playfully tugged at the messenger's clothes and pulled him out.
The "Severed Leg Project" had already begun, and the Assassins had been sent out by the rebel leaders - the first words that came to mind.
