After this, Artoria, who had been waiting for Egil to come back to play cards, was invited. Her Royal Highness is also a battle-hardened person. I wasn't surprised at all to see the first one air-dried. After a careful examination, he gave a positive answer.

"That's right, it's the Kadis guy. I really didn't expect that someone could hunt him down in the mountains and forests. Looks like this guy does have some skills. Artoria said to Egil.

"Since the queen said so, then she is right. Egil nodded, and then ordered, "Come, take this gift and send it to York City to the north, and show it to our dwarven allies." ”

Then, one of the spies quietly stepped aside, saluted Egil, picked up the wooden box, and stepped back a few steps.

“...... That guy was a good assassin. At this moment, I watched the spy enter and exit silently. Robin Hood was slightly surprised, but also slightly restrained his pride.

"Robin Hood!" was just as Robin Hood was in the midst of a loss in his heart, and Egir suddenly called out his name.

"Yes. Your Majesty. ”

"Starting today, I officially appoint you as the Chief Instructor of the Kingdom's Archers and the Commander of the Kingdom's Longbowmen. Recruit all your companions to work for me! it doesn't matter what they were before, hunters, mercenaries, or bandits. From this day forward, they are my soldiers, the warriors of the kingdom!!

Suddenly hearing such good news, Robin Hood was so surprised that he even forgot how to answer. It wasn't until Egil shouted, "Did you hear that?!," that he reacted and lowered his head deeply: "From today onwards, Your Majesty will follow Your Majesty for eternity." ”

Egil took a few steps forward and helped Robin Hood to his feet: "Very well, then everything is up to you." ”

After this, Egil hears a system tone: You have gained a new minion.

Robin Hood: A famous thief in the Middle Ages, a legendary marksman with a masterful archery skills. At the same time, he is proficient in small-scale operations in mountains and jungles, and is an extremely rare tactical talent. There is a term "Robin Hood" in the world of archery to describe the ability to shoot the first arrow that hits the bull's-eye in two pieces when the second arrow is fired. Archers under your command +5% Reload Speed, Archer Accuracy +10%, Archer Attack +2, Command Archer +2.

At the same time, Egil also received an announcement from the system that he had an additional team of Sherwood marksmen in Sherwood Forest near Nottingham.

Sherwood Marksman: An elite sharpshooter dressed in a costume and armed with a purple-shirted wood longbow, his ranged attack ability can be described as the strongest among archers. Regardless of the shooting speed, accuracy, and power, it is stronger than the average longbowman. At the same time, he is proficient in mountain and jungle combat, and can slowly advance in the mountainous jungle terrain by hiding his body, and attacking with a hidden body. However, it is important to note that these sharpshooters have low defense and are sparsely numerous. Try to get them to avoid melee combat.

Sherwood Archer: 80 in number, Ethnicity: English, Equipment: Green Camouflage Outfit, Purple Shirt Wood Longbow, Throat Slit Dagger. Training: Very High, Morale: High, Discipline Surname: Medium.

"Good stuff. Although it is true that the number is a little less. Egil sighed. After that, let the knight of the guard take Robin Hood down to familiarize himself with the situation of the camp, and by the way, allocate a house and land or something.

Then, in Artoria's eyes, Egil once again entered into the usual state of daze. Artoria, who already had experience in the West, was not surprised, and directly found a chair to sit down, and then snapped her fingers and asked the servants to bring some food to eat. Ever since she had been starving in the Welsh Woodlands for so long, Artoria had developed a penchant for snacking. It doesn't have to be delicious or filling. It's enough to chew something in your mouth.

But despite this, perhaps because her combat power has not recovered, Artoria practices every day and spends a lot of time boiling her body. So I didn't get fat at all.

Similarly, there was no change in the bust circumference.

Above.

At this moment, Egil is communicating with the system elves.

"Anyway, after seeing this guy, I remembered another person, that is, the Yang Yuji, who is known as the first marksman of the Spring and Autumn Period. That dude is also a strong archer. Hundred steps through Yang is talking about him. I don't think of him because I wanted to know who was better than him or Robin Hood. Rather, I want to ask—is the so-called battlefield cold arrow stream hero very popular?" asked Egil.

"I want to maintain enough judgment and mobility on a complex battlefield, and specialize in bowing and sniping enemy generals...... It's a pity. Robin Hood, the general you just subdued, really has this ability. The system elf replied.

“...... Anyway, why do you have to regret having this ability?!" Egir complained.

"Do you think I'll be happy to see you?" the system elf asked rhetorically.

“...... Well, next question. "Egil understands that the system elves are indeed the kind of people who like to gloat and don't see how well others are doing. So he decided to put this matter to a halt and began to ask another question: "The Sherwood marksman is indeed a good class. But the number is a little too small. I've just taken a look at the recruits in a few of the cities I've been working on. It was even upgraded to the Praetorian Guard barracks. Isn't there a place for Sherwood marksmen to recruit?"

"Well. Because the Sherwood Marksman is a very rare special class, it cannot be recruited in the general barracks. The system elf said, "And the way to recruit Sherwood marksmen is to build a ranger's guild, and then recruit Sherwood marksmen in the ranger's guild." And there is a limit to the number of recruits. It's very difficult to become an army. ”

"Ranger Guild ......," Egil looked at the system's building bar. In addition to the Ranger Guild, there are many other guilds that provide special bonuses. It seems that the commercial guilds can increase the volume of trade and indirectly increase taxes. The Forge Guild is able to upgrade its weapons and increase its attack power. The Horse Rancher Guild can breed fine horses, increase the strength of cavalry, and so on...... However, the vast majority of guilds have the words "construction conditions not met".

"What's going on?" asked Egil.

"That's it. The system genie replied.

“......”

"Okay, okay, I'll explain a little bit, let you know about this unenlightened orangutan-level barbarian-"

"—Stop. No, I'll just take a closer look. Egil immediately stopped the system elves' attempts to continue to tarnish his image.

Horse Breeders: It is necessary to concentrate more than five horse breeds and have more than fifteen horse breeding experts.

Forge Guild: You need to develop more than 10 melee weapons and have more than 15 Forge Masters.

Forest Ranger Guild ...... Well, this one can be built. You need 3,000 longbowmen to occupy Nottingham and Sherwood Forest, and get the refuge of Robin Hood.

It costs 8,000 gold. Building restrictions, England, cities with large forests within the territory.

"There are still building restrictions...... "Egil complained a little weakly.

"Of course, that's why I said it's hard to mass-produce. ”

Although the system genie says so. But seeing such a kind class, Egil finally made up his mind and set up a forest ranger's guild in Nottingham with a portion of the December tax money. And again, for one thousand two hundred gold coins, one hundred and twenty Sherwood marksmen were recruited. Finally expanded the number of Sherwood marksmen to two hundred, barely the level of a squad.

After that, Egil recovered from this state of stupor, from the perspective of Artoria next to him.

"Alright, let's go back and play cards. Seeing that this was done, Artoria took Egil's hand and went back to her room.

Egir, however, did not move.

"What's wrong?" Artoria asked.

"Originally, I didn't expect that someone would be able to hunt a powerful elven marksman in the mountain and forest terrain. Egil sighed.

"So what?" Artoria asked.

"So...... How do you say we should deal with the elven tribes in the Welsh forest in the future?" Egir asked, "How did you control these elves to work for you?"

"Salt. Artoria's answer was simple and straightforward, and she didn't know much better than the system elf who was long-winded and had a poisonous tongue and couldn't get to the point.

"I see. Egil suddenly realized. Norway and England were all near the sea, and Egil had heard that the dwarves had several salt mines in the mountains. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the problem of edible salt. But it seems to be an elven tribe, which can't boil salt and doesn't have mines. I want not to hang up because of a lack of minerals. I can only use Artoria as a cow and a horse.

"So, those elven mercenaries, you also pay your commission with salt?" Egil then asked.

"It's just a small part. After all, the elven tribes also have their own other trade channels, so the number of elven tribes I can control is not very large. Artoria explained further.

"But lately the whole of England has come under my rule...... Eh, wouldn't this decree of the salt and iron official camp be very funny?" Speaking of this, Egil had an idea and thought of this matter.
