Indeed, there are dozens of bandits, and their bodies are still on display in the Great Wasteland. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info" Jórdoff gulped down the ale and said proudly, he had already bragged to the other mercenaries in the tavern before, but not many people believed what he said.

I don't know why he can be proud that the caravan he protected has been wiped out, but I'm happy to receive admiring glances from those around me.

"God of light, destroy Boris, it is God's will!"

Knight Kidd is a devout believer in the Cult of the Illuminati, the state religion of Sarion.

"Warriors, Lord Baron has issued a notice to recruit mercenaries, and I sincerely invite you to join the just crusade against Boris!"

Knight Kidd spoke, taking an iron box from the sergeant major behind him, placing it on the table and opening it, inside was stacked with silver coins and five medals!

"This is a reward for your deeds! I will appoint you a sergeant at once if you agree to join, and a bounty of fifty silver narls!" Uncle Peter looked at me, this was something we did not expect, and if we agreed, it would affect the trip to Monsieur Lumyr, but I did not think much of it, for I would never put too much hope in others!

Rather than expecting Mr. Lumir's support, it is better to join this seemingly difficult war and hone your fighting skills and will.

"It's my pleasure to serve Lord Baron!"

I got up and took the iron box, bent down and said.

"We are willing to serve the Baron!" said Uncle Peter in unison.

"Very well! All other mercenaries who want to be conscripted have come to Sergeant Major Sigmund to register, and each of them will receive a recruitment fee of twenty great dinars. Knight Kidd smiled, smiled at us, and left.

The difference was immediately apparent, it cost fifty silver dinars to recruit the five of us, which was equivalent to five hundred great dinars, while it only cost twenty great dinars to recruit an ordinary mercenary.

"It seems that killing a rogue knight will give you a bounty of silver nar, come, ten for each of you. I smiled and handed out the Yinnar, only to see the sound of swallowing saliva from the mercenaries around me.

"See, if you want to earn silver, follow me to the registration office now!" Sergeant Major Sigmund patted the chain mail on his body and led the Salion soldiers away, and the mercenaries who had been crowded in the tavern rushed out at once, and the tavern looked much cleaner.

The tavernkeeper, who was also the innkeeper, Suke, came over.

"Gentlemen, do you have any intention of selling your captured horses and booty, this post is small, but there are also horse dealers and arms dealers. Su Ke said with a smile.

"Oh, that's exactly what we want, and we want to buy some armor before the war starts, and ask Boss Suke to introduce it on our behalf. Uncle Peter handed over two silver narls, and Suk smiled when he saw the silver coins.

We didn't have to wait long for the horse dealers and the arms dealers to come to the tavern, and we negotiated for an afternoon, and sold all the booty at a fair price.

In addition, everyone bought something more or less with their spare money, and I have to say that the Kingdom of Sarrion is indeed much more prosperous than my hometown Kingdom of Ravenston, just this town that is born around the border post, has a variety of goods, and it is not much worse than Walden Town.

Presumably my original destination would have been more prosperous than Glen.

It was enough for me to have the cross-sword inlaid with the Dragon's Tear gem, and just in case, I had purchased an additional military dagger of the highest quality of the longbowmen of the Kingdom of Sarion, which was a serious military product, much sharper than the dagger of the hired crossbowmen, and of course it cost me eighty dinars.

As for the armor, I escaped from Walden wearing only knightly training leather armor, which had been badly worn out from previous battles, so I added a half-new full-body chain mail that didn't interfere with my movement and provided good protection.

After changing my whole body, I stood in front of the bucket, the water reflected my appearance, wearing an iron helmet on my head, wearing old chain mail on my body, carrying a cross sword and a hard crossbow on my back, carrying a short sword around my waist, and then leather pants and leather boots.

After buying these things, I had twenty-five gold nars and twenty-five sarian silver nars left, as well as some small and small dinar change, which together amounted to about a hundred or so.

I was quite satisfied with the way I looked, I was a little tired from the day's travel, and I had to recover to my best before the war began, so I said hello to Uncle Peter and they went upstairs to rest, and as for Uncle Peter, they were still talking to the registered mercenaries to get closer, after all, they would be fighting side by side in a few days.

The rest lasted two days before it ended, and two days later, Baron Fred arrived at the outpost with his guards, accompanied by a group of mercenaries, the Iron Sword of the Adventure Group of Kudan from Marions.

The leader of the 'Iron Sword' Kudan Adventure Group is called Kudan, and there are more than 100 people in the entire Adventure Group! This can be regarded as a relatively large number of mercenaries, and looking at the members of the 'Iron Sword' Kudan Adventure Group, the equipment on their bodies is much better than the scattered mercenaries in the tavern.

Baron Fred summoned us and had a brief conversation, all about the battle that had taken place that day with the rogue knight, and I was able to get a closer look at the baron.

Very young!

Baron Fred was born in the Royal Lion Knights of Sarion, his father was a mid-level officer of the Sarion Praetorian Guard, Baron Fred himself was a brave lion knight, and was made a baron for his meritorious service to protecting King Ulrique, and his fief was in the town of Biglen!

Very well, you five sergeants will be responsible for leading the mercenaries who will join the army at the outpost, divided into one to five squads, each squad has twenty-five mercenaries, and I will send five sergeants to assist the five. ”

After Baron Fred finished speaking, five heavily armed Sergeants of Sarion came over to meet us, they were all veterans who had experienced the test of real war, and we did not dare to slack off, and greeted each other politely.

I was appointed squad leader of the second squad, and the sergeant who assisted me was called Gregory, also a young lad, who had been promoted to the rank of sergeant because of his participation in the border war between the Kingdom of Sarion and the Kingdom of Fields and the Kingdom of Fieldsway last year.

710 year of the Pande calendar, January 20 of winter.

The day after Baron Fred arrived at the post, a team of 'Sir Raven' of the Great Heath was directed against the Great Heath

Boris's crusade began.

Except for Knight Kidd and a large group of soldiers under his command who stayed at the outpost, the rest of the troops were taken away by the baron!

The force led by Baron Fred consisted of six hundred and forty regular soldiers of the Salion regular army of four fully formed Sarion infantry brigades, one hundred and twenty-five mercenaries of five mercenary squads, one hundred mercenaries of the 'Iron Sword' Kudan Adventure Regiment, and forty cavalrymen of the Baron's personal cavalry guard!

The total strength of the battle exceeded 900 people, in addition to some conscription militia and traders who tried to make war profits, such as the horse dealers and weapon dealers introduced by Su Ke, and with these people, the scale has exceeded 1,000 people!

Baron Fred rode a lion knight's lion warhorse, wearing bright silver plate armor and a red cloak on his back, he was really heroic, he was full of confidence, because according to the previous information, there were only more than 500 rogue knights under the command of 'Sir Raven' Boris, and 51 rogue knights were lost a few days ago, and it is difficult to say whether there are 500 now.

I didn't ride a horse, but led the horse and walked side by side with Sergeant Gregory, whispering about the experience of the battle, and behind me, the mercenaries of the second squad were not very convinced, and in their opinion, my young fellow was not worthy of being their leader, but since this was an order from the baron, they did not dare to resist blatantly.

It doesn't matter, I'll prove my strength in battle, three years of Falcon Knight Hu has honed my swordsmanship from experience, and I don't think any of the mercenaries behind me can beat me one-on-one.

The most powerful of the mercenaries have long since joined the various adventure groups, and only those who are mediocre will wander day after day, looking for opportunities for war.

The march was boring, and after a day and a half of marching, we arrived at an abandoned village in the Great Heath, which was now occupied by Boris's men. Sir Raven' Boris still has some ability, he has long been informed of the news that we are going to send troops, this place is still half a day away from his castle, and he has sent more than a hundred of his men to use this village to slow down our march and strengthen the defense of his lair.

The scouts circled the abandoned village a few times, and there were about two dozen rogue knights inside, and the others were some low-fighting bandits.

"Hmph!

Baron Fred observed that the abandoned village, built on a gentle slope, was not too dangerous, and the defenses were very weak, and there was no effect on the resistance.

"Second Brigade! End the battle in twenty minutes!"

Baron Fred thought that only one brigade of troops was enough to end the battle, and he had no intention of letting the mercenaries go into battle, after all, the mercenaries would be left to be used as cannon fodder when attacking the castle.

In fact, the second brigade only charged once, and before they could get closer, the rogue knights in the village fled, and Baron Fred was in high spirits, and led the guards to hunt down the rogue knights, and slaughtered all twenty rogue knights!

And the bandits, all of whom surrendered, and of the casualties on our side, only two Sarion soldiers were wounded, one by a stone thrown by the bandits, and one who tripped and broke his foot during the charge.

The battle was going well, but Uncle Peter came over to remind me with a solemn expression.

"Reina, I think there is a problem, this Boris can make a name for himself in the Great Wasteland, he can't be a fool, this battle is too smooth, smooth is not normal!"

Sergeant Gregory immediately retorted: "Sergeant Peter, you don't need to be suspicious, in the face of absolute strength, Boris is useless even if he is scheming!"

Uncle Peter was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment and went back.

Sergeant Gregory's tone was a little tougher, but his words were correct, and his strength was overwhelming.

Baron Fred ordered the march on, but left the merchants and conscripts who accompanied the army in the village, and in the decisive battle against Boris, we would not divide our forces to protect them, and it would be better to keep them away from the battlefield.

The victory boosted our morale a lot, and at noon we arrived at the castle built by 'Sir Raven' Boris, the Raven Fort.

Heavens, it was a castle, built on a hill with dense woods, and there was only one road leading to the castle, which was not very high, but it was made of stone slabs, and it required a ladder to climb up.

Baron Fred's face was heavy, if he wanted to attack the Raven Castle, he would have to pay a big price, on the walls of the Raven Castle, the rogue knights laughed loudly, but unfortunately they were too far away to hear what they said.

In fact, none of us at the time realized what a cruel test of life and death this seemingly simple war would be!

"The baron orders, the 123rd mercenary squad assists the 3rd Brigade in launching the first attack!"

The sergeant gave us the order, and three squads of mercenaries took the lead to face the long-range strike force of Raven Castle!

The Sarion soldiers of the 3rd Brigade kept a gap of about ten paces with us, and when we had set up the ladder, they were responsible for the battle in the city.

I took out the kite-shaped shield I had prepared in advance, and stood at the front of the line with a cross sword in one hand, and the twenty-five mercenaries of the second squad, twenty shield-wielding mercenaries, guarded the five mercenaries carrying the ladder in the middle.

Sergeant Grigory, with a shield in one hand and a straight-edged knife in the other, stood at the end of the line, tasked with overseeing the battle, and as long as any mercenary retreated without giving the order to retreat, I believe Sergeant Gregory would not hesitate to swing his sword!

"Doot toot!" the herald blows the horn of the attack!

The first wave of the attack began, and the mercenaries shouted and charged forward!

By the time we reached the Raven Castle a hundred paces away, the bandits on the walls of the Raven Castle began to draw their bows and shoot!

Luckily they didn't have many archers, and we were all ready to rush twenty paces ahead of three rounds of arrows!

I was hit by an arrow in the abdomen, but the arrow was blocked by the chain mail, and it didn't hurt me after piercing the chain mail, but some mercenaries who had no armor protection or only wore leather armor were not so lucky, I didn't look back, just listening to the screams, I judged that at least five of my second team were finished!

The third brigade in the rear began to use bows and crossbows to fight back, which played a certain role in suppressing the bandits in Raven Castle, and our three squads of mercenaries successfully set up the ladder on the city wall, but before we could climb, the bandits threw down the stone and rolling logs prepared in advance!

This thing can't be prevented by a shield, and for a while the mercenaries screamed again and again!

I clung to the walls of Raven Castle, hunched up and shielded from above, a method that Uncle Peter had told me, and it was not pretty, but it worked.

I took the opportunity to observe the battlefield, and Baron Fred put the mercenaries of the 4th and 5th squads and the 4th Saarion soldiers into the battlefield!

Uncle Peter, the leader of the first squad, came to me and said, "Baron, this is a surprise to take Raven Fort by attack, Reina, you have to be careful, the bandits are bound to fight back wildly!"

As if to confirm what Uncle Peter said, the bandits on the city wall dumped an iron pot and poured boiling water on the mercenaries guarding the ladder!

"Ah!!h

"God of Light, I can't see it!"

"Damn it!"

While the mercenaries screamed, the soldiers of the third brigade finally climbed up the ladder!

The bandits dispersed, and the rogue knights gathered in the clouds
