Although this slave trader is now ready to make a lot of money, Zhao Yulong's answer to him is still a little unpredictable.

As a businessman, he actually thought a lot in his heart, he thought that Zhao Yulong would buy a lot of slaves, and also thought that Zhao Yulong said a lot, but in fact, there were only a few. Or Zhao Yulong didn't buy it, he also thought of it, but Zhao Yulong said that he really didn't expect it.

He couldn't even believe if his ears had heard it wrong, because he had never heard such words in so many decades of life, but he knew that there was nothing wrong with his ears, because these words did come out of Zhao Yulong's mouth.

"I think I'm going to buy all the slaves like you, and I'll buy as much as you have here, including later, you know?

Although Zhao Yulong actually led the troops this time, after hearing that these slaves were so cheap, he still felt that it was better to buy them all and buy what this slave trader could get in the future.

Although Zhao Yulong didn't need these slaves, he knew that once these slaves were bought by others, they would never turn over. So he wanted to help as many slaves as possible, and although he couldn't help them too much, it wasn't difficult to get them out of slavery.

But this is definitely not an easy task, although these slaves are sold cheaply, but if they are piled up, it is still not cheap.

Now the slave trader has calculated this amount himself, which is indeed a large amount, at least it can make his life live in peace and security. So he didn't really believe Zhao Yulong when he said these words, because the number was too big.

Many lords expected to frown at the sight of this number, let alone this teenager who didn't seem to have much money. It's likely that he's just making fun of him, but businessmen don't let go of any business opportunity.

Even though this business opportunity seems very illusory, he still wants to try it, maybe he is really lucky to meet it?

Now he told Zhao Yulong the number in his heart, and observed the changes in Zhao Yulong's expression at all times, and when he saw Zhao Yulong showing surprise, he knew that his business was useless.

Because almost all the people who bought slaves from him showed surprised expressions because they thought that these slaves were too expensive, and now this number is indeed quite a lot, and it must be reasonable to be surprised.

However, Zhao Yulong was not surprised by the high price of these slaves, on the contrary, in Zhao Yulong's opinion, these slaves were too cheap. Although he did not know the market price of these slaves, nor did he know how cheap they could be in the slave market.

But now, the price of these slaves is definitely beyond his own minimum estimate, and these human beings are sold cheaper than the beasts of the East.

Therefore, now Zhao Yulong is a little suspicious that the prices in the East are too high, or the prices in the West are too low. But the mounts here aren't cheap either, except for this slave.

"You're sure you only need thirty gold coins, and I don't mean just buy these, I mean you're going to have to provide them to me later. ”

"Yes, my honored guest, if you ask me to offer it later, then this is the price. You know these guys are very low, so they can't be too expensive. You know, it's just that these are only three gold coins at most, and I'm sure they're the best slaves I've ever met, all of them added up to five silver coins. It seemed that there was hope again, and the slave traders cheered up.

"Well, I'll give you five gold coins first, and three of them should have been bought. The remaining two were as deposits, and when slaves came to me in the future, I bought them all. After speaking, Zhao Yulong casually threw him five gold coins.

"Thank you, you are indeed my most honored guest, but how can I find you?"

"You're in the city, and I'll have someone buy it when the time comes. With that, Zhao Yulong opened these cages for slaves in the past.

Now these slaves belong to Zhao Yulong, so this slave dealer doesn't care whether Zhao Yulong will continue to buy these slaves in the future, in short, he has already got a lot of money. Although the money can't even buy a decent weapon, it's pretty good for the civilian class.

"Yes, my most distinguished guest, my name is Dabra Brad, and you can always come to me if you need it later, and I will travel around several cities. But from this day on, I will only stay in this city to trade slaves. But with all due respect, what are you buying so many slaves for?"

"It's none of your business, you just have to tell me now how the chains on their bodies are opened, and what about the keys?

"The key is here, my most distinguished guest. But these slaves are dangerous, and I suggest that you don't give them freedom, which is not good for you. Saying that, the slave trader handed over a bunch of keys to Zhao Yulong.

Zhao Yulong took the key and didn't pay attention to anything, just took these slaves and walked out of the city. However, he had not yet untied the chains, for the only way to prevent anyone from blending into the crowd was to be chained together in this city.

"You're crazy, you spend so much money to buy these slaves, what can they do? It's nothing more than cannon fodder, look at them like this, all of them are trainee warriors, and mages, so they can fight?"

"Yes, I heard that many of the Duke's soldiers were apprentices, how do you explain that?"

"This ...... Can this be the same? They're just slaves, slaves! You know what? They're inferior after all, they're not qualified to fight alongside us, and it's a shame on me!"

"But I remember what your master said was to let you help me fight on the battlefield, even if you don't want to, you have to go to the battlefield, don't you?"

"Even so, just these people, not even two hundred, but the enemy army is three thousand! Three thousand, and it is still at the official level, and they have some very strange formations, do you think these people can deal with it?"

"Isn't there just a shortage of people? Anyway, there are still a lot of our soldiers in this city. To be honest, Zhao Yulong doesn't care too much about the number of people, because as long as he knows how to use soldiers, even if he is a million army, he can still destroy thousands of people.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about his own strength can destroy a city at one time without leaving any life. But there is no point in that, the purpose of war is conquest, not slaughter.

If you kill the whole world, although it is true that there are no enemies. But he lost more, especially since those who died may be his future followers.

Therefore, if it was not a last resort, Zhao Yulong would not have used the Burning Sky Flame. But that doesn't mean he can't win more with less, at least he hasn't seen many opponents in terms of arranging troops so far.

But the number of people is so small that more than 200 people can't be deployed at all. So Zhao Yulong really wants to find more soldiers, but it's not difficult, as he said, there are a lot of soldiers in this city.

However, this minion does not have the same eyesight as Zhao Yulong: "How many soldiers are there in such a small town?"

"Yes, don't you see everyone sitting on the ground?"

"Beggars, you mean these beggars? Just them? I can't stand it, you're really crazy, first a slave, then a beggar, and then what do you want to get out of it?"

The servant said angrily, but Zhao Yulong just turned his head to Meng Liang and said, "Take this money, buy some food and distribute it to these beggars, and tell them that if they want to eat in the future, go outside the city, three miles to the west, there are people waiting for them." ”

"Understood!" After taking the money, Meng Liang didn't say anything else, but immediately took action. After all, for him, Zhao Yulong's plan was nothing to doubt, and he chose to believe in Zhao Yulong's arrangement.

"You're crazy, so much gold is just going to waste. ”

"It's not your money, what do you care about? It's really a day when the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry. Zhao Yulong didn't want to pay too much attention to him, and now he was pulling the chain that tied all the slaves and walked out of the city.

"Emperor, what is an emperor? What is a eunuch? What do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing, I praise you for being as calculating as a eunuch and will save money. ”

Half an hour later, there was a clearing outside the city, and there were already quite a few people standing here. It is estimated that there are five or six hundred, and there are three kinds of people.

The first is the slaves that Zhao Yulong bought, and now they are all very spiritual, because they want to leave a better image in front of their slave owners. Although they knew that doing so would not change their status as slaves, at least it would make them feel better.

And the second type is those beggars, to be honest, it is still very tempting for them to be full. So now that they hear that they can pause and be full, they still have some expectations.

And the last kind of people are those who have nothing to do and watch the excitement, these people Zhao Yulong basically ignores, because they don't need to care at all.

"Very well, since the people have arrived, let me tell you the purpose of my gathering here today. My name is Zhao Yulong, and as you can see, I am an Oriental, and the reason why I have you all here is because I need an army. ”

"An army" This made most of the people present a little confused, if these slaves could be explained that Zhao Yulong needed a human shield, but what happened to the others?

"Yes, an army. You should know that there are enemy troops roaming around here, although I don't know what they did. But I know you all want to defeat them and drive them away. ”

"But sir, we don't want to get rid of them, because they don't do anything to us, our city is still like that. A beggar didn't know for what purpose he interrupted Zhao Yulong's words.

However, Zhao Yulong did not feel embarrassed by this, but said: "I believe that you will want to drive them away, because as long as this time can be successful, I will release the freedom of all my slaves here." And I'll feed everybody, if you can reassure me that you want to get rid of them. ”

Free all the slaves, it's really an attraction. At least for these slaves, the conditions were too tempting.

Even they were a little skeptical that Zhao Yulong was telling lies to deceive them. Although there were still slaves who were freed before, they were a few, not all slaves.

Today, there are at least 200 of these slaves, and it is unrealistic to free them all. However, Zhao Yulong's actions still proved to them that he was indeed telling the truth.

Looking at these keys at their feet, the slaves naturally understood that this was the key that could unlock the chains of their hands and feet. Although these were just ordinary keys, for these slaves, it was the gateway to heaven.

Because as long as they have these keys, they can leave these shackles, although this does not change their status as slaves. But without the shackles, it was easy for them to escape.

Therefore, ordinary slave owners would not untie the chains for them, but now Zhao Yulong has thrown this key at their feet.

"These are the keys, and you can unlock them now. However, your identity cannot be changed, as you have no proof of civilian status. This will only be available to you after this war is over. Of course, you can go now, anyway, I won't mind. But if you want to change your identity and become knights, then I advise you to stay here. ”

Zhao Yulong said very casually, this is a strange slave owner for these slaves. I bought these slaves with my own money, but I wanted to give them freedom, which was absolutely non-existent in previous years.

But Zhao Yulong did so, because the key was already in the hands of these slaves, and now they had no hands and feet to tie up, and it was a matter of time for them to leave.

These slaves can't understand why Zhao Yulong did this, and others can't understand it, and now they can only understand that Zhao Yulong is an Oriental with different thoughts.

Seeing that these slaves were untied from their hands and feet, Zhao Yulong didn't care whether they left or not, because they knew that some of them couldn't stay, and some couldn't get rid of them, so it was good to let everything go naturally.

Therefore, now Zhao Yulong is looking directly at the beggars. After talking about the slave's side, it is natural to deal with the beggar's side. Most of them are not very good physique, and none of them have ever been on the battlefield, and now that Zhao Yulong sees it, he can't help but hesitate in his heart.

"I know you're here just to save face, and I want to say that I gave you that meal. If you don't want to go to war, you can leave now. But for those who stay, I can guarantee that they will have enough to eat every meal, and you will also have the opportunity to become knights, everything is up to you. Whether you want to continue sleeping on the streets or become a knight is up to you. ”

After speaking, Zhao Yulong stopped caring about these people, and sat down and read the book on the spot. It's winter, and the soil in the west is dry, so it's okay to sit down.

As the pages of the book turned, so did the people who stayed here. Quite a few people left here, and quite a few stayed. But more often than not, after leaving, they regret it and run back again.

In short, after reading a book, Zhao Yulong saw many new faces, which should have been called by others. But the overall number of people is not particularly large, counting himself Meng Liang and the minions, there are only three hundred and seventy people, but it is enough.

Now that he sees the moon rising tomorrow, Zhao Yulong knows that the time is almost up: "Very good, since everyone is willing to stay here, I won't say much else." Ten days, ten days at the latest, I think we will face the enemy. So I hope you can put in a thousand times the effort, or you will only die!"

For these soldiers, Zhao Yulong didn't want to give them too much hope. After passing through these soldiers, there are some people who are really experienced in a hundred battles, but now Zhao Yulong feels that they still have no ability.

They may know a lot about the battlefield, but they don't necessarily know their own formations. Therefore, Zhao Yulong continued to ask: "So who knows the art of war now, or the formation method?"

After the words fell, as expected by Zhao Yulong, no one in the entire team knew. Maybe they really don't know what the art of war is, or maybe they don't know what the term "art of war" means.

In short, no one answered Zhao Yulong's words now, and the bright moonlight was only the cry of the grasshopper, and other than that, there was only the sound of the wind.

"You don't know, and I don't blame you, I'll spend the next ten days teaching you, but I want everyone to learn seriously, because your mistakes alone could lead to the destruction of the entire team. It's up to you whether you become a knight or you both die. ”

"General, I think I should have seen such a thing as a formation, is he ......" Just as Zhao Yulong wanted to continue, a soldier interrupted him.

It was one of the slaves, sturdy and bright-eyed, apparently a soldier of some army, or even a captain. But that's just the name of the East, what does the West call this level, Zhao Yulong really hasn't studied it.

However, since he had seen this kind of formation, it made Zhao Yulong very concerned: "So where have you seen this kind of formation?"

"On the battlefield, not far from here, that is, the enemy you want to face. I turned out to be a squad leader in Baron Cana's Guards Legion, who sent our legion to deal with these enemy forces. As a result, the whole army was destroyed, and I escaped death, but I was ......"

"You mean, the enemy here will form a formation?" Before the soldier could continue, Zhao Yulong interrupted him.

"Yes, it's them, because of this formation, our army of 10,000 people was completely wiped out. ”

"I see, it seems like it's a real problem. Zhao Yulong seemed to have an epiphany, but he deliberately didn't say it, and now these soldiers don't know what he is thinking in his heart.
