Chapter 153: Fame and Fortune

When Lord Möngke came to his senses, he found that he had returned to his camp outside Dorette, and happened to see Fidel, who was about to leave his side.

"Hey you guy," Mungo struggled to sit up, his head, waist and legs were injured to varying degrees, the most serious was probably the head, and now even his own consciousness was not very clear, "You brought me back?" The Lord covered his bandaged head with one hand and touched the wound on his waist with the other, not knowing how long he had been unconscious.

Feder turned his head slowly, "We went back to Doret City yesterday, you" Fed remembered what he had discussed with his subordinates, and then continued, "That's right, I rescued you." He didn't know if it was a lie.

Möngke looked at the back of Fidel's departure, and he shouted loudly with all his strength: "Mercenary! Thank you, Möngke, I owe you my life!"

When Fidel walked out of the tent, the soldiers of Möngke standing outside were in awe of Fett, most of whom had spent the night in the fort and had not followed Möngke further south to pursue the deserters. Several of his own soldiers who had followed Möngke in pursuit to the south were also released, and they did not know why they were released, but one thing is for sure, the light cavalry of the East Oguna Empire retreated in a hurry, apparently defeated.

Last night, when Fielder's Potato Mercenary Regiment returned to the fort, everyone realized that Lord Mungo had been saved by Field. And the captains and subordinate mercenaries of the potato mercenary group all unified their voices - Fide captured Saresa, and Saresa's subordinates captured Möngke, and in order to ensure that the marquis's son could be released safely, Fidel asked for an exchange.

Even the leaders of the three mercenary groups admitted this matter themselves, and they all said that Fide's approach was the most correct, and they also claimed that as long as all the mercenaries were led by Fidel, those East Oguna Empire would suffer a second defeat.

So from yesterday to today, many civilians in the city have come to the outskirts of the barracks to catch a glimpse of the hero who brought the first victory to the defense of the St. Oguna Empire. There were also many small nobles who took the generous gifts and managed to enter the barracks outside the city, found the captains of the potato mercenary group, and stuffed the valuable gifts into the captain's hands, hoping to pass them on to Fidel, and stammered this upstart of the St. Oguna Empire.

"Look, it's for you," Noor pointed to the pile of gold and silver in the corner of the tent as soon as he saw him return, "those people now not only want to meet you, but they're starting to talk to us." Noor waved a bracelet made of silver, which looked a bit of an upstart in the world.

Luca said, "Deputy Commander, we have all been back for a day, and we have not yet been received by Stanley, and Lord Möngke is not the nephew of the Prince Regent Xiumo, why didn't you see him come to see his seriously injured relatives?"

Noor said, "Needless to ask, they must be thinking about how to reward Field, you must know that Stanley's adjutant seems to be dropping his jaw when he sees the two twin-pointed forks we brought back! Noor showed a look of pride, when did he think that he was so reckless that he was lucky enough to defeat the royal family of the Empire, and today's achievements are all because he chose to follow Feide.

Fidel sat in his place, and there was a document on the table, which Stanley, the chief of the general staff, had given him last night. It said that he was busy spreading the news of the border fortress this time, and maybe he would not have time to meet with Fidel in the past two days because of this incident, but after a few days, he would definitely let the entire St. Oguna Empire know that there was a young mercenary named Fidel, who had personally defeated the Wasteland Python Saresa and recaptured the fortress and saved Lord Mönggo. He also asked Fidel to call himself the head of the regiment, although he already knew that a man named Andre was the head of the potato mercenary group, but now the credit is on Fidel, and the name of a deputy head is not good enough. This proposal made Marcus a little dissatisfied, but due to the situation, the one-eyed captain still compromised.

In fact, the morning after repelling Saresa and recapturing the fortress, the female knight captains Selena and Luca had already brought thousands of reinforcements from Bacheng. The regular troops, who had long since lost much morale, did not expect to knock out someone to repel the enemy army without their help at all. At that time, rumors of night battles in the frontier fortress began to go viral: some people said that there were thousands of cavalry of the invading army of the East Oguna Empire, but all of them were broken by Fidel's clever tactics, some people said that Lord Möngke and Fidel's regimental commanders divided into two ways, and took advantage of the cover of the night to sneak up on the fortress and succeed, and then repelled the enemy who had set a trap; and some people said that Fide killed the god like lightning in the dark night, killing a hundred enemies alone, and finally easily captured the opponent's weapon when he was alone with the Python of the Wasteland. It was only because Lord Möngke fell into the hands of the enemy that he had to exchange the female general for Möngke.

Coupled with the cheering and jealousy of the three mercenaries of the mercenary group who went together, Feide's name had already spread throughout the barracks within a few days. The small mercenary groups that followed Fuller were originally recovered by Fuller's bravery, and now the three mercenary groups that were the most picky among them and looked down on other mercenary groups the most were all impressed by Fielder's performance overnight, and most of the small mercenary groups changed their minds in an instant and decided to follow the potato mercenary group. The leaders of many mercenary groups came to the door in person, saying that they would accept Feide's command.

Most of these mercenary groups are mercenary groups with mediocre strength and the leader's personal ability is not very outstanding, and they all hope to find a big backer. The kind of backers like the mercenary union don't look down on them, and they can't look down on the mercenary group without extraordinary strength. Although there are still some mercenary groups that are still relatively unfamiliar with Field's name, and the number of mercenaries in the Potato Mercenary Group is still very small, so they don't decide to follow so quickly, but those fifty-six mercenary groups have begun to be gradually used by Field.

On the contrary, Ludwig, a native of the Winter Kingdom who was in the same barracks, did not appear, as if he had disappeared, neither to congratulate nor to appear anywhere else.

The performance of the Potato Mercenaries and Fidel has brought about other changes. Once upon a time, Reeves feared that the whim-struck name would make them ridiculed, but now all of Fed's men realized that in the world of mercenaries, only strength was the only measure of mercenary value.

When they were in the City of Light, Field's subordinates had thought about choosing a suitable banner for the Potato Mercenary Regiment, but they didn't decide until Keth and Avi left the team. The head of the Mercenary House in Doret City was the first to come to the door, and he had come with a brand new banner - a solid black bottom, a white sword diagonally in the middle, and a yellow potato behind the sword. It's as if this potato is a mercenary, holding a sharp weapon in his hand to protect everything behind him.

The design of this flag was unanimously approved by the captains, and the person in charge of the mercenary house also obtained Field's permission, and the mercenary house in Doret City was responsible for the work to immediately make dozens of such flags and give them to Field.

While Fed was still thinking about the changes in the past two days, the squad leader Leonard ran in from outside the tent, and he panted and said, "The regent Xiumo is coming to see you, the head of the Fedfield!"

Fed immediately asked all the captains to stand aside, and it wasn't long before the regent, Simo, under the protection of the captain of the guard, Leland, entered the camp of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, and with him was Lixson, the companion of the little Emperor Manfret. Fidel immediately stood up in respect.

"Captain Fei De is really a rare talent!" Xiu Mo strode forward, without any powerful shelf, he held one of Fei De's hands and said, "When I was in the defense meeting, I heard that Fei De had defeated the two mercenary groups of the Mercenary Guild, but I didn't expect that even Asha would be defeated by you this time!

Fei De looked at the other party as if he were an old Meng Ge, perhaps the other party was so excited to hold his hand and congratulate him because he had saved his nephew.

"It's part of the Chief of the General Staff's plan, and I'm just cooperating with it. ”

"Ah! Captain Feder is so modest," Xiumo looked back at Luxson, "Come, you shake hands with Captain Fed, he is the savior of our St. Augusta Empire!" he said and let the eleven-year-old boy step forward and shake Fett's hand.

Only then did Feder notice that the boy who had rescued the little Emperor Manfret also had maroon hair, similar to Saresa's.

"Thank you for all that Grand Master Fede has done for the Holy Oguna Empire, you and Grand Master Satnam of the Knights of the Church are our best friends of the Holy Oguna Empire"

The regent Xiumo seemed a little dissatisfied, and he immediately interrupted the boy and corrected him: "And the Archbishop of the Papal States, Arthur Auerbach, and the Archduke of Oldington of the Duchy of Noo!"

"That's right, and the archbishop and the archduke, both of whom are our most important allies. "Lixson behaved very well and was dressed neatly. Such a person Feder had also encountered, that is, the second prince of the Kingdom of Salins, Ansol, but the boy in front of him gave people a more serious feeling, and Ansoil made people feel more natural, as if they were dignified from the heart.

"Do you know Fed, I liked to wear black armor just like you when I was younger, and I had a friend at that time, and he also wore black armor," Xiumo put his hand on Fed's shoulder, and his tone and movements were quite affectionate, "We once tried, and the two of us went to a thief's lair together and killed all those hateful thieves! Looking at the corpses of those bad people, it was like seeing those invaders repelled by you! It's really nice to think about it now!"

Fei De didn't know how to answer, but Ayana said coldly, "Thieves are not necessarily hateful, they may be unbearable, and they may be good people." These words made the scene cold like a cold wind, and even Nur, who was born as a thief, was not offended by the words of the regent Xiumo, and did not expect that Ayana, who had always been quiet and quiet, would suddenly say this.

"Actually, a lot of things are not as simple as they seem. Fid understood Ayana, and he ignored the Regent's feelings and echoed Ayana.

With a stiff smile still on his face, the regent Xiumo turned to Lixson and said, "Yes, many things can't just be superficial, you also have to learn more. Lixson nodded immediately, as if he had just learned something.

Then the regent Xiumo began to talk about how busy he had been lately, in addition to keeping in touch with the seven nobles who were temporarily "protected" in the city, and facing a lot of pressure at home. He didn't mention Saint Golia, who was also the pillar of the St. Oguna Empire, but said that although the St. Oguna Empire had won its first victory, due to the many problems it faced, the St. Oguna Empire was still at a disadvantage. He said that if Fei De could take all these wavering mercenary groups for his own use within ten days, it would definitely be a good thing for the country and the people. He very much hoped that Fed would be able to command more than 30,000 mercenaries inside and outside the city of Doret, which would also relieve the internal pressure on the St. Oguna Empire.

"I'm going to make you a first-class privileged mercenary of the St. Oguna Empire, and give you some fiefs, some southern fiefs," the regent glanced at a map hanging in the tent, "When we reclaim the land, those lands will naturally be yours, and you will also become the sword and shield of our St. Oguna Empire!"

Marcus and the other captains exchanged glances, the privileged mercenaries were a unique product of the Oguna Empire, originally there were only two first-level privileged mercenaries in the entire Oguna Empire, one of which had been wiped out - the two-color blade mercenary group led by the sister of the Holy Maiden Golia, the head of Deria. Fed heard that this Delia had been forced to leave the East Oguna Empire because of her sister's rebellion, and some people said that she was dead, but the token of this mercenary group had appeared in Avi's hands, and Fed remembered this. Another first-class privileged mercenary has already been deployed to the northern front of the East Oguna Empire to participate in foreign operations.

After the split of the Western Frontier, Fuller, as the head of the second-level privileged mercenaries, gathered more than fifty mercenary groups to follow him to serve the emerging regime in an instant, which shows that a privileged mercenary in the empire is very appealing. And the privileged mercenaries are also divided into three levels, and mercenary groups like the superior mercenary group, the black mercenary group, and the Mulihua mercenary group have no chance to be selected at all. In order to become a privileged mercenary, you must always be loyal to the Oguna Empire, and have a certain degree of contribution to have a chance to be chosen.

After the Lord Regent finished speaking, Felder was still thinking about how to answer, but his men couldn't sit still.

"Captain, yes, a first-class privileged mercenary is a very high honor!" said Leonard, the squad leader, to Fid in a low voice, but the tent was not large, and everyone heard him. Marcus and Luca also agreed, after all, this is several times stronger than the "Resident Mercenary Group of the Papal States", which is definitely a shortcut to quickly increase its strength and popularity for a mercenary group that has been established for less than half a year.

But Fei De has seen through the methods of the regent Xiu Mo, the other party will always draw a beautiful blueprint, and then make all kinds of promises that seem to be extremely sincere, but secretly take advantage of the other party's greed, and then further control the other party, in his own hands. Feder had already seen what happened to the seven nobles, as well as Fuller, DeBarlo, and even the Regent's best friend Gabrihaus.

"I think it would be better for all rewards to be given to those who have merit after we have achieved complete victory. Fei De politely rejected the other party, he was already the head of a group, and he still learned some appropriate ways to deal with it.

The Regent Xiumo pursed his lips and smiled, not pressing, saying that he was always ready to welcome Fidel to take his share of the honor and reward he deserved. He also thanked Feder for saving Lord Mungo, and he agreed with Fed's approach of exchanging Saletha for Mönggo's return. He said that he and Saresa had known each other for many years, and that the emperor's cousin, the marquis of Sky City, had liked to practice martial arts since she was a child, no worse than male knights, and completely different from ordinary noble ladies. Those two double-pointed forks are her treasures, but she didn't expect to be defeated and taken away by Fidel, and there will definitely be a chance to catch the other party in the future, so she is not in a hurry. He was embarrassed to say that he thought that with the enemy force distribution map in his hands, he would be able to easily capture Saresa. But he underestimated the maneuverability of the Plain Python, and in the end he just pounced.

"Captain Field, I need you to cooperate more with my subordinate Stanley in the future, and when we defeat the invaders, we will be prosperous and prosperous. ”

Several captains were moved when they heard this, and even Patrick looked thoughtful. Feder knew that money was not attractive to Patrick, but a man who came out of the arena still valued honor and fame. Only Ayana is unmoved, this girl with a strange temperament will always be the most special in the potato mercenary group.

When the regent left, the crowd began to talk about it, and Reeves received a bounty from the regent. In addition to these, Reeves also brought back the mercenaries who had been recovering from their injuries in the Holy Light City. Due to the loss of a lot of archers this time, Reeves must enter Doret City to replenish some personnel these days.

As the captains were talking to each other, Fei looked at Ayana's trophy, Saresa's helmet, which also had an arrowless arrow on it, and Ayana didn't seem to have any intention of pulling it off. "This is my trophy. Ayana noticed Fidel's eyes, and she immediately put her helmet behind her and whispered.

"Do you think we should write a letter to Nangus and tell us what's going on here?" said Feder, casually talking.

"It's okay, after all, both Uncle Russell and Uncle Feo have expectations for you," Ayana put away her helmet, "You can also tell Uncle Russell's adopted son that you're already the head of the regiment." ”
