On this day, General Li Laide took the initiative to find Lowen.

In the living room of the City Lord's Mansion, the two sat opposite each other. After listening to Li Laide's request, Luo Wen just snorted secretly in his heart, but he didn't show any unhappiness.

"General Li, as far as I know, the property of the legions in various places is uniformly allocated by Dajin City, how can you ask me for it? I don't understand, please make it clear to the general. ”

"The Earl doesn't know, it was supposed to be allocated by the central government, but because our Western Legion was hastily formed in order to prevent the Moss Empire from making up for it, it was too late to determine the detailed consumption, and the war was just over, and the finances were also tight, Your Majesty meant that the Earl you should pay in advance, and when the finances were relaxed, the central government would allocate the funds. ”

Luo Wen sneered in his heart, hum, when will the advance be paid?

"Oh, I see. However, General Li has also been here for more than half a month, and you can also see the situation in our territory, this is just the beginning, and his own territory has not yet been completed, so he really has no spare money to raise a legion. Luo Wen sighed and said, glancing at Li Laide.

General Li sighed helplessly: "I can't do it, but the earl still has to think of a way, otherwise I can only report to Your Majesty." ”

Hmph, threaten me. Luo Wen still eats this set now, and he still has to give others face on other people's territory.

"Does the general know that the defenders of Jinsha Town have often crossed the river in the middle of the night to test us recently?" Luo Wen asked suddenly.

Li Laide was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Luo Wen suddenly asked this, but still said: "I know a little." ”

There's nothing to pretend about, a legion is stationed in Akita Castle, and it's a dereliction of duty to not know. However, because there was no money to pay and no weapons to equip them, the officers and men did not want to move.

"General, I have a way, you see if it will work. I hired your soldiers to patrol ten territories, and the wages were according to the price of the mercenary group, and the weapons and equipment were distributed, but they had to be returned when they were finished. Lovan said.

Li Laide thought about it, this method is okay, at least it can stabilize the mood of the soldiers now, it is better to earn money than to play, and it is just patrolling, this job is easy. But if Dajincheng knows about it, I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain.

"This method works, but His Majesty's side ......"

"If you don't say it, I won't say it, who doesn't know. ”

Li Laide nodded.

On that day, there were two teams of fully equipped men and horses patrolling each territory. Looking at these centaurs, Luo Wen smiled in his heart: Do you want to leave after eating me?

On this day, Wang Xiaosong reported that there was a bandit in the south of his territory, blocking the way of people who came to play in the south. I also wandered around the edge of the territory from time to time, probably trying to fight the autumn wind. So he came to Luo Wen to apply for the deployment of some white ash mercenary group to exterminate this bandit.

"Silly, don't you have two patrols in your territory, take them there. ”

"Uh, okay?"

"Why not, they are the Western Legion, should they also take care of the matter of suppressing bandits?"

"Yes, yes, yes. ”

"Then do it, I'll go with you. Oh yes, call El Ear, he's been idle lately anyway. ”

El is indeed relatively idle, and when things in the territory are on the right track, he has nothing to do, and Zach is in love now and has no time to play with him, and it hurts to be idle every day.

The two patrols in charge of Wang Xiaosong consisted of a total of thirty people, two of the captains were intermediate samurai, and the others were all junior samurai and trainee samurai.

At noon that day, the news was received that the bandits were watching from a distance of 100 meters from the territory, so Luo Wen immediately gathered men and horses to chase them out.

More than a dozen bandits saw more than a dozen people suddenly rushing out of the territory, and knowing that they had been discovered, they rode their horses and galloped back.

One chased and one ran, and ran a few kilometers to the south. It may be that the bandits' horses are old and weak, or it may be that the speed of Rowan and the others is too fast, and the bandits were chased at the foot of a small hill.

The bandits stopped running, couldn't run, and were all on horseback ready to fight.

Luo Wen and Wang Xiaosong rode their war pets to the front, and seeing that the bandits were not running, everyone slowly slowed down and surrounded them.

One of the bandits shouted "Huh" and shouted, "It's Count Rowan on the other side?"

Good guy, I'm so famous now? The bandits all know me? Rowan wondered: "It's me, why do you want to make friends? No way, it's not your turn to line up." ”

"The Count is mistaken, we've met. Our boss is Liu Gongzi, Liu Dezhong. ”

"It's you!" Luo Wen looked at it carefully, and had a little impression that he had let go of dozens of them at the beginning, but he didn't expect to be bandits here.

At the behest of Luo Wen, the bandits sent a man to call Liu Dezhong. Soon, the two returned.

"Sure enough, it's you. ”

"Count Loewen, uh, I didn't expect to meet here again. Liu Dezhong smiled.

After chatting for a while, it turned out that after Liu Dezhong took people away, there was nowhere to go, so he thought about simply making a little extra money and leaving the Sunset United Empire, it is said that there are everyone there, as long as they have the strength, they can live.

During the period when the Warcraft Riot in the Sunset Jungle had just been sealed, everyone from the sea to the Moss Empire had come ashore here, so Liu Dezhong took people to do some costless business in this area. Later, after the trade route of Sunset Jungle was opened, there were not many people who took the sea route.

It wasn't until last month that they knew that this land had been occupied by the Dajin Empire until it reached the Boundary River, and everyone had plans to leave.

Looking at the playground in the territory closest to them, there are a lot of people coming to play every day, presumably this lord must be very rich, or leave the Dajin Empire without the last vote?

"Lord Earl, my lord doesn't remember villains, if I knew that it was the territory of several of you, I wouldn't have killed him. "Liu Dezhong is very sincere.

Instead of saying what he was going to do with them, Lovan asked, "Where were you going to go?"

"I originally planned to go to the Sunset United Empire, but I heard that Zhu Gongzi has built a small principality over there, maybe he can still remember some old feelings and take us in. Liu Dezhong said, "There is really nowhere to go, if he doesn't take us in, we can form a mercenary group over there." I've heard that the small principalities of the Sunset United Empire often fight wars, so maybe you can become a mercenary. ”

"Our territory is short of manpower right now, come and help us. Luo Wen said bluntly, startling Liu Dezhong.

"Join the White Ash Mercenary Group?" In fact, Liu Dezhong thinks that joining the mercenary group is actually very good, and now the White Ash Mercenary Group is a top mercenary group.

"Oh, it's not that you want to join the White Ash Mercenary Regiment, you can only count as a private army hired by the territory. At least you know my character, it's better than Zhu Gongzi. ”

"Oh, Count wait a minute, I'll consult with my brothers. ”

In the end, these thirty or so people still agreed, it was better than being bandits, being the lord's personal arm, and they could go back to see their families after they were whitewashed.

The bandits didn't succeed, but brought back more than 30 people, and they were all middle-level samurai, yes, yes.

More than thirty people were divided into ten groups by Lowen, one group for each territory.

The force obtained for free, I didn't want them to join the White Ash Mercenary Group because I knew the roots. Now let them join the territorial armed forces, also because they know the roots.

this night.

"Boss, a team of people from Jinsha Town rushed to Jin Qiaozi's territory to grab things, and a fight broke out!" Tu Xingyong reported.

"Catch it!"

"There are too many people on the other side......"

"Call people, call them all, let them have no return!"
