Chapter 753: "Tours"

On November 8, Luo Ming embarked on a journey.

It was a coincidental date, just three days earlier, the Beran army had suffered a decisive defeat and had to sign a contract with the principality.

There is no guarantee that a follow-up war will break out in a few months or years, but at least for the time being, the fighting has subsided.

And Luo Ming doesn't have to worry about being blocked by the war - the large-scale army is already retreating, and as for the small remnants of the army and thieves who fish in troubled waters, they are not a threat at all to a master like him.

And if it's a little later, it will start to rain and snow on a large scale.

There were no asphalt roads in this era, except for some paved roads or roads with a lot of stones, many sections of the road were just dirt roads, and when it rained and snowed, the road conditions would be terrible.

Even after a while, some rivers will freeze and waterways will be restricted.

However, Luo Ming had already prepared a plan to leave at any time, and his luggage and other things had already been packed, so he could seize this opportunity now and go on the road immediately with full preparations.

This time, Luo Ming didn't plan to travel with one or two people.

The only acquaintance who traveled with him was Granty, and the rest of the people such as Ariana, Pelodiana and others stayed in the territory to do work and research.

But in addition to that, he brought quite a few others with him.

The cook should bring two to prevent unaccustomed food from eating outside, to prevent excessive food expenses, and two people to supervise each other can also try to prevent being poisoned.

The housekeeper wants to bring one, and many trivial things on the road can't be handled by Luo Ming himself, right?

The servants have to bring three, whether it is laundry and sweeping or something, it is always more safe to bring their own manpower than to hire someone to use it when they get to the place.

You have to bring a few guards, too, although the two great swordsmen are already strong, but a group of sturdy guards wearing armor and holding weapons are obviously more deterrent, and can avoid the trouble of many thieves and robbers or blocking the road to collect taxes.

Some nobles heard that Luo Ming was going to go to the empire, and they also stuffed their own sons and nephews.

Originally, there was such a tradition under the aristocratic feudal system: the lower nobles would send their sons and nephews to the high nobles, receiving education and serving the high nobles.

Sometimes they would work as grooms, messengers, or scholars, which would foster obedience to the higher nobles, and would also help them to endure hardships and acquire more useful knowledge and skills.

Now if they accompany Luo Ming to go far away, on the one hand, it is to show loyalty, and on the other hand, it can also increase their knowledge.

At this time, Luo Ming did not refuse, he selected a few excellent ones from those candidates, and brought them with him.

At the center of this "tour" were four horse-drawn carriages.

In addition to this, at the front of the group were three cavalrymen in armor and armed with spears, and at the back were five men, all with the coat of arms and banners of Lomin on the tips of their spears.

They are also among the best among the sons and nephews of the nobility, and each of them can be called qualified knights.

Next, there is a Van Xi Iron Guard in front and behind.

They can wear heavy armor and walk like a fly with a strengthened halberd in hand, and Luo Ming has deliberately transformed their armor into a more ornate armor for the sake of deterrence.

Their helmets were topped with flaming tassels, and their shoulder armor was large and towering, and combined with their already outstanding height, they looked like behemoths of more than two meters.

Although they did not ride horses, as infantry, they were able to give a sense of oppression that was superior to that of ordinary mounted cavalry.

In addition, there are thirty ordinary soldiers - they are said to be ordinary, but in fact, they are all elites, both in height and actual combat ability, they are carefully selected.

Even if Luo Ming and Grant didn't make a move, these people alone would be able to defeat an ordinary army of hundreds of people in the field.

And their existence can also provide a certain degree of support for Luo Ming's Heavenly Power Sword, which is probably called "military qi".

If only Luo Ming and Grant were to travel, it would be too far away from Vanchy County, and the power of the Heavenly Power Sword would be very small.

Although it is different from the swaggering appearance of some real nobles who often echo hundreds of people before and after when they travel, the atmosphere of this team seems to be too solemn, but this is also in line with Luo Ming's character of "young genius military strategist".

Luo Ming is no longer a commoner, nor is he a small knight, but an earl, with an actual territory, and is the guardian of a county, and he is definitely considered the upper echelon in the aristocratic circle of the entire continent.

In this era, if the aristocracy does not put on a score, it is always easy to be despised by others.

Just like in business, a boss who drives a luxury car is definitely more likely to attract the attention of the other party than a second-hand Xiali, and it is easier to negotiate a business.

And Luo Ming had offended the Plant family when he was in the empire in the past, and now if he didn't put on some pomp, it was as if he was afraid of the Plant family.

Although Luo Ming didn't intend to provoke any disputes, he went to the empire this time to give priority to visiting friends, rather than picking quarrels and provoking troubles first.

But if there is no pomp, maybe the Plant family will first have the illusion that Luo Ming is very weak and has no self-confidence, and take the initiative to come up to find trouble, which will increase the trouble.

Besides, even if there is a real fight, what is Luo Ming to be afraid of?

This time, Granty also embarked on a journey with him, and the two great swordsmen who cooperated tacitly could not easily bite even if they were a legendary powerhouse, and he even stuffed some other big killing weapons in a freight carriage......

He had already done his investigation, and the Plant family was just an earl, although they were earls with a complete earl, and their gold content was a little higher than that of Luo Ming, the county guard, but the gap was not to a huge extent.

If the territories of the two sides border, Luo Ming will fully mobilize all his troops to push it over, and the chances of victory are not small.

With their forces, how many forces can be mobilized to attack Luo Ming?

As for the possible collusion between the Plant family and the cultists...... Luo Ming is also not afraid at all.

He is the holder of the Order of the First Class Ardent Defender, and he is an out-and-out cultist nemesis.

While "evil will prevail" may sound like a naïve phrase in a fairy tale, it is also true to some extent.

If the forces of evil far outnumbered those of righteousness, the world would have changed long ago—and the reality is that cults were either concentrated in remote areas or barbaric backward countries, or they spread covertly within the civilized world.

If they are very powerful, do they still need to be sneaky?

Their latent power may be very large, but it will not be easy to concentrate the power that can deal with the two great sword masters, and with such a large force, it is blind to be the Inquisition?

When the time comes, I'm afraid that it will be a thunderous blow and a net, and Luo Ming may be able to mix up another commendation.
