Chapter 57 Arriving at the Border

After an in-depth exchange with Mia Haraus, Zhang Yuan was able to leave and continue to the tailor's shop.

After Zhang Yuan left, Mia Haraus pondered for a long time, and just as she was pondering, several burly men came to her side to protect her.

"Uncle Solsack, do you think it's really right for us to start a war and cause misery to the people?"

"What the princess's sword is pointing at is the direction of our attack, and everything is up to the ancestors."

"Then let's go to the surrounding villages, I have a plan, and the plan is like this......"

Just as Mia Haraus was explaining the plan, Zhang Yuan came to the tailor's shop to meet the remaining staff.

"How's Manstein?"

"The general is all ready."

"Very well, then let's go, to Suggs."

"Yes, General."

Just after Zhang Yuan changed into flying eagle coats, he marched towards Suggs, the city where the largest velvet market Zhang Yuan inquired about.

Suggs was originally the capital of the unified dynasty of the continent, but because it was captured by the Nords, it formed the current capital of the Nord Kingdom, but the most prosperous city in the history of the continent did not lose its function due to the change of ownership, but was still the largest trading center on the continent as before. According to the owner of the Dehrim grocery store, there is bound to be plenty of velvet in Suggs. After all, it's the largest trading hub.

It's just that Zhang Yuan didn't know that he had been listed as an enemy by the Nord Kingdom, just because he was at war with the coyote Gui Chang. As for what happened to the current Guichang group? He was also imprisoned, awaiting the kingdom's representations so that Raldian could get the most out of it.

It didn't take long to march north out of Dehrim before he encountered robbers, but the number of robbers was scarce, only twenty people, and he immediately turned around and ran after seeing Zhang Yuan. The leader of the robbers was still wondering in his heart, how could he have encountered the aristocratic army? I obviously investigated a few people with valuable treasures. This is the disadvantage of Velvet, which constantly calls for enemy personnel to come and attack.

Seeing that there were few robbers, how could Zhang Yuan let go of such a good opportunity to obtain equipment and upgrades? Directly patted the horse and led the cavalry to chase and kill, and the foot soldiers saw that the general was out of the horse, how could they stand still and not move? Soon there was a scene of chasing and fleeing in the field. It's just that the robbers didn't escape.

It was another brilliant victory, and Zhang Yuan's material reserves were more sufficient.

After dealing with the robbers, it's time to camp here at night. This time, without Zhang Yuan's mobilization orders, all the recruits consciously picked up earthworking tools and began to dig trenches. This is not only their obligation, but also the guarantee that they can spend the night safely, and no one will be sloppy, they are all digging there seriously, according to the previous pattern, laying traps.

In the middle of the night, when everyone was resting, a group of more than a dozen cavalrymen appeared on the outskirts of Zhang Yuan's camp, this was a group of horse thieves around Dehrim, because Dehrim's garrison had always been very small in number.

"Head, this is the team that bought four velvets from Dehrim."

"Are you right?"

"Don't worry, don't you believe me? I'm watching it for real. ”

"Okay, how many of them are there?"

"There were about forty of them, and there were only seven or eight cavalrymen."

"In this case, then we will rush through the main gate, take advantage of the chaos to enter the camp, find the velvet and leave."

"The boss is wise." A group of horse thieves complimented the chief.

"Then we'll rest for a while, and we'll grab it when the horses have regained their strength."

Zhang Yuan, who was in the camp, didn't know what was going on, he didn't fall asleep tonight, looking at the appearance outside at about 2 o'clock in the morning, he had a whim, how about an emergency gathering? As soon as he thought of it, Zhang Yuan directly finished draped it, came to the outside of the tent, beckoned to those who were still patrolling, and told them to call everyone.

Since there was no enemy attack, there was no disturbance in the camp, and the assembly was completed quietly. Seeing the group of soldiers standing in front of him, Zhang Yuan began to explain, "Soldiers, in order to better deal with emergencies in the future, I specially organized this emergency gathering, you must remember this emergency gathering, I am very satisfied with the quiet and orderly gathering, and I hope that next time we can be the same as this time when we encounter emergencies." ”

Although Zhang Yuan was not satisfied with their assembly speed, he still had to praise it for the first time, after all, it was rare to have a quiet assembly and avoid the possibility of camp roaring. Ying Xiao is not a joke, how many heroes and famous generals in history have been defeated by this Ying Xiao.

Just as Zhang Yuan was about to disband, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance.

It was also considered lucky for the horse thief to run along the road, and if he did not follow the road to get close to the camp was still unknown, just as the horse thief was about to approach the camp gate, several antlers blocked their way.

Just as they were about to remove the antlers, several rockets shot at the firewood and grass beside the antlers, instantly igniting a raging fire that illuminated the surroundings clearly.

When the horse thief was able to see ahead with the help of the flames, a rain of arrows came at him, and due to the bonfire lighting, few of the horses were harmed, but the horse thief on the horse suffered. More than half of them were shot directly. After all, Zhang Yuan has many people and arrows.

Suddenly attacked, the horse thieves suffered heavy losses, and the horse thieves who were still alive ran straight to the side of the road, hoping that the night would hide their figures, but unfortunately the road was full of traps.

The one who entered first lost his front hooves and was thrown off his horse's back, and the huge inertia of the horse pressed on his body on all fours, causing direct death. This was followed by the second one, where the trigger was killed, and some of the horse's legs were caught in the clip, and the escaped horse thieves were unsuccessful.

The trap area could not be cleared, but the horses on the road could not let them run, so they directly arranged for the soldiers to lead the horses, and obtained eight good horses at one time.

In the early morning of the next day, after collecting all the loot, Zhang Yuan was afraid for a while, these horse thieves were not fuel-efficient lamps, they were all equipped with bows and crossbows, and if they fought in the field, they would definitely suffer heavy losses. Fortunately, it was a night battle, and he occupied the right time and place, and finally solved them. Not only did they contribute enough bows and crossbows and horses for the armed forces, but they also provided a large number of dinars, and for some reason, this gang of horse thieves provided Zhang Yuan with a golden dinar. It's easy to buy a bundle of velvet again.

Out of Dehrim all the way to the north, recruiting soldiers again along the way, so that Zhang Yuan's team surged to 66 people, now Zhang Yuan is considered a strong soldier, I don't know that everyone has equipment, and it is very strong, 16 cavalry, the remaining fifty people are all equipped with bows and crossbows and swords and shields, and now this strength can already compete with some small lords. As a result, Zhang Yuan was no longer afraid that the outlaws would come to rob.

Three days later, after non-stop actual combat and replenishment, the number of Zhang Yuan's team personnel did not change, but the combat effectiveness did rise in a straight line, and in the non-stop battle, Zhang Yuan obtained another balanced combat knife, that is, the excellent level. Now Zhang Yuan has five excellent-grade combat knives.

On the afternoon of the fourth day out of Dehrim, Zhang Yuan and his entourage came to the border between Ryerdian and Nord, a village belonging to Ryerdian.
