Chapter 126: Forming a Mercenary Group
"However, the pioneer battalion's plan to recruit mercenaries is not too smooth, probably because of the large number of mercenaries recruited by the four major lords in the early stage, so there are not many mercenaries in the northern part of the entire kingdom that can be recruited now. ”
"Even if the pioneer battalion has raised the price of recruiting mercenaries several times, there are still few people who go to sign up, only some unsatisfactory free mercenaries and mercenary groups to participate, so far the pioneer battalion has recruited only 3 or 40 mercenaries, and even a small team has not been filled, I heard that Duke Duck is quite dissatisfied with Egbert for this. Bill told all the news he had gotten in one go.
After listening to this, Barron said, "John, it seems that you still have a few brushes, Bill, you don't have to stand, sit down and eat together." ”
When Bill heard Barron say this, he glanced at his boss, and when he saw his boss nod, he immediately sat down next to Belus, and began to gobble it up, to be honest, he had been busy all night yesterday, but he hadn't eaten anything at all, and he was already hungry.
After John saw Bill sit down, he said: "This is also a matter of no choice, the four major lords have already planned it, and it is this effect that they spend a lot of gold coins to want, and now the largest mercenary groups in the north of the kingdom, such as the Dark Mercenary Group, the Dove-tailed Mercenary Group, the Three-Headed Dragon Mercenary Group and the Winged Eagle Mercenary Group, etc., have all been recruited by the four major lords, and the pioneer battalion is only thinking of recruiting mercenaries too late now." ”
The others nodded when they heard it, and they had to say that although Barron and the others were strong, they still had to rely on John and others in the area of intelligence, and they knew that although John was just a small intelligence broker, he specialized in the art industry, and Barron and the others couldn't play this matter, but unfortunately they were going to part ways later.
At this time, Barron suddenly said: "By the way, I want to form a mercenary group, John, do you want to join?"
............
............
"Mercenary group?" John said in amazement, he didn't expect Barron to suddenly want to form a mercenary group and invite him to join.
But John looked at Suta and Aldridge sitting next to Barron, a junior knight, a mysterious wizard apprentice, and Barron, a mid-level knight!
If you form a mercenary group with such strength, not to mention the number of people, the high-end combat power alone will instantly crush 99% of the mercenary groups in the Nader Kingdom, which is completely comparable to the top mercenary groups in the Nader Kingdom.
"Well, do you want to think about it?" asked Barron.
"I'll think about it first, but I still want to ask, Barron, why did you suddenly think about wanting to form a mercenary group? You must know that the recruitment of personnel of the mercenary group, the selection of tasks, the training grounds and equipment of the mercenary group, the collection of intelligence, the location of the mercenary group, etc., all cost a lot of energy and money. "John knows that as long as the Nader Kingdom is a large mercenary group that can be named, it is often backed by a big nobleman or a big chamber of commerce, otherwise it is difficult to make a mercenary group bigger and stronger.
Like the Dark Mercenary Regiment, the Dove-tailed Mercenary Regiment, the Three-Headed Dragon Mercenary Regiment and the Winged Eagle Mercenary Regiment just mentioned, they are all supported by the four major lords, either overt or covert, in order to continue to grow and become stronger, which is not a secret in the northern part of the Nader Kingdom.
John also knew that Barron seemed to be coming out of the Jonny Chamber of Commerce Guard, could it be that Barron's backer was the Jonny Chamber of Commerce?
But let's not talk about the Jonny Chamber of Commerce, this Chamber of Commerce, which is not considered the top in the entire Nader Kingdom, can support a top mercenary group in the kingdom, just now the elder Jonny of the Jonny Chamber of Commerce seems to be trapped in the end city, and the Jonny Chamber of Commerce is now too busy to take care of itself, how can it have the energy to form a mercenary group.
Or is it Count Mex behind the [Hunter] Suta? But Count Mex is already dead in battle, and it's even more impossible.
Then the only possibility is Aldrich, the mysterious wizard apprentice, after all, if it is a mysterious wizard, it makes sense, maybe this wizard apprentice named Aldrich has unimaginable forces behind it.
When John was still entangled and wondering which force was behind Barron, he heard Barron say quietly: "As long as one person is recruited, there is no need for any training ground or mercenary station." ”
"The entire mercenary group is me, Suta, Aldrich, if you join, count yourself as one, and the last one is yesterday's Van Luntien, this guy has good strength and can be absorbed, of course, if your two subordinates are willing to join the mercenary group, they can also come over, after all, Bellus's barbecue is very good." ”
John couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, he never thought that Barron's so-called formation of a mercenary group was not a large mercenary group like he imagined, but a small mercenary group similar to an adventure group.
While continuing to eat breakfast, Barron said: "Actually, there is another advantage to forming this mercenary group, that is, it can attract the attention of the pioneer battalion of the Zhenbei Corps, do you say that the Zhenbei Corps is interested in scattered mercenaries, or is it a mercenary group like us with 4 knight-level powerhouses?"
John didn't know what to say, Van Lentien was still tied up in the utility room, and Barron counted him as a member of the mercenary group.
"A mercenary group with 4 knight-level powerhouses, if you join either side, I'm sure anyone will welcome it, but only if they are not treated as spies or anything like that. John said.
At this time, John said lightly: "Why do you think the four major lords want me? That's not a bitter plan, a middle-level wizard apprentice, three junior knights, and hundreds of soldiers of the four major lords' armies died in my hands, do you think Duke Duck should give me a noble title? If this also considers me a spy, I can only say that the four lords are too bloody." ”
John, Berus, and Bill were completely stunned when they heard Barron say this, no wonder the four major lords would issue a huge bounty for Barron's arrest, if what Barron said was true, the four lords probably wanted to eat Barron alive.
But Barron really didn't lie, [Wizard] Arcadia, [Silver Wolf] Andrea, [Barbarian] Lorente, and the junior knight who accidentally died at the hands of Barron when he was searching for Baron and Suta in Yez Town, Barron just said that one is not bad.
"Let me think about it!" Some news was not something John could find out, and Barron gave more information at once, so that John didn't react for a while.
