726. Baron Golding
The barracks garrison is lively tonight.
There was a prison in the camp that was no better than a stable, and it was now full of mercenaries who had returned from detention.
Almost all of these mercenaries were wounded, and although they were simply bandaged, they still lay in prison with a chirping voice.
Some of the mercenaries, who had been slightly wounded, leaned against the prison fence and watched as the cavalry ate their dinner in an orderly manner in the garrison camp.
Everyone passed in front of a few large iron pots with plates in their hands, and they looked like they were eating well.
The wounded cavalry were treated first by Surdak, and the cavalrymen were heavily armed before the mercenary battle, so they did not suffer too serious fatal injuries, the most serious being that one of the cavalrymen had seven ribs broken.
Surdak was so busy that he didn't even eat dinner to treat the cavalry.
Many of the cavalrymen recovered almost instantly after being treated with the Holy Light Technique, and Surdak also found that his Holy Light Technique seemed to have become a little different, and seemed to be more effective than before.
Because of the presence of Surdak, the cavalry in the cavalry battalion were not afraid of being injured at all, so they fought more bravely than the fighters of other teams.
Due to the withdrawal of the priests and battle priests of the Temple of Liberty from the battle sequence of the Grimm Empire, the price of healing potions in the Grimm Empire's magic market is one. The price of herbs rose at least tenfold during the night, and the price of herbs continued to rise, which caused many fighters to dare not get hurt in battle.
In the absence of any means of treatment, serious injury is equivalent to death.
β¦β¦
In the garrison camp, the cavalrymen sat neatly at long tables, wooden plates were placed in front of them, and everyone was quietly eating dinner.
In the cavalry camp, it was forbidden to make noise during meals, and everyone was eating silently with their heads down, and when they had eaten, they cleaned their plates and threw them into a steaming basin of water, and they were to be cleaned uniformly.
There was little fruit on the part of Dodan Town, and there was a large area of bush on the hilly side, which was rich in some cranberries, so that the cavalry could get some fresh berries after their meal.
Every night, the cavalry will line up to take a cold shower by the wall of the water tower, in fact, the water in the water tower is still warm in the evening after a day of sun exposure, the cavalry after a whole day of training, are all stinky sweat, at this time everyone lined up, giggling and taking a cold shower, is the most relaxing time of the day.
There were a lot of horses in the barracks, and every evening, a large number of horses were driven from outside the town by the aboriginal herdsmen and ran into the stables.
At sunset, that kind of scene is still easy to make people's blood boil.
At this time, the mercenaries who were imprisoned in a simple prison realized that they might have underestimated the true strength of this garrison, and they did not seem to be the same thing as the cavalry battalion of the Langdon Legion.
Whether it is horses, or various armaments, the sophistication of armor and weapons, or the high will to fight and optimistic attitude of the cavalry, all of which the previous cavalry battalion did not have.
Surdak did not heal the mercenaries after treating the cavalry.
After washing the blood from his hands, he walked out of the cavalry quarters, where the captain of the barracks had already waited at the door of the dormitory with a plate full of stewed meat and scones.
If he wasn't worried about being scolded by Surdak, he would even have to bring dinner to the dormitory.
Surdak took the plate, and then he felt that he was hungry too.
At this time, the guards ran over and reported to him: "Lady Luna from the town hall, the tax collector of Batra, the owner of the tailor shop, and the owner of the bakery are all waiting in front of the small building......"
Surdak hurriedly put down the plate in his hand and followed the guard to the small building.
β¦β¦
Josh, the owner of a trading firm. After receiving the notice that the trading house was closed, Baron Goldin did not rush to the trading house as soon as possible, nor did he go to the military camp station, but asked the butler around him about the legion to which the cavalry battalion belonged and the background of Surdak.
He was lying on a chaise longue by the pool of the manor, and two beautiful blondes stood rubbing his hands. legs, the butler stood aside, and said to Baron Goldin:
"We have received information that this time it is the Luthor Legion led by the Marquis Luthor of the main battle faction of Bena Province, but the army that came to the Bailin Plane is not the main force of the Legion, and it is commanded by the Deputy Legion Commander of the Great Swordsman Chester, who is responsible for the defense of the northern region of the Bailin Plane."
"At present, there is a coup d'Γ©tat in the Talapakant area of Bena Province, and the Marquis of Luthor has gone to Tabei to suppress the military coup, and he has no time to manage the military and political affairs of the Bailin plane for the time being."
"We have a message for this Baron Surdak...... Basically, no, the only thing we know is that his cavalry battalion should be the latest to be formed, with a new number, so we suspect that he should be a ragtag army temporarily transferred to the Luthor Legion, and he came to the Bailin plane to earn merit, but I don't know why he came to Dodan Town......"
The housekeeper told Josh in every detail. Baron Golding presented some of the information he had learned.
The reason for the investigation of Surdak is mainly that Surdak drove out the mayor of Marco in the town as soon as he took office, and obtained the military power of the city defense brigade by extremely strong means, and the trading company also suspected that the adventure group that ransacked the slave traders was wiped out en masse outside the town, which had a lot to do with the cavalry battalion.
It's just that recently, the gate of the north city wall has not been opened, and the investigation on the side of the comptoir has not been carried out for the time being.
Josh. Baron Golding put down the fine porcelain cup in his hand, sat up from his chair, and looked thoughtfully at the sunset in the distance that was about to sink into the mountains, and suddenly he realized that he seemed to be ignoring the commander of the garrison camp.
"What did Anthony do, the armed regiment of the trading house hired nearly a hundred mercenaries, although these mercenaries are not considered to be constructed warriors, but they all have at least some magic pattern constructed armor, and they all have the strength of more than one turn, how can they not even beat the ordinary cavalry in the cavalry battalion?" Josh. Baron Goldin asked, frowning.
The butler coughed lightly before he said, "This Surdak commander has three very powerful cronies under his command, in addition to one constructed warrior, there is also an ogre warrior, and the other archer is unknown, almost all of them have a high-level strength. β
Josh. Baron Golding put down the teacup in his hand, pressed his forehead a little helplessly, and said, "It's impossible to defeat a hundred of our mercenaries with just these three people!" β
He waved his hand and motioned for the two young maids to leave.
Propping up his chair, he stood by the pool and said, "Buckley used to brag to me all day long about how strong the mercenaries in the mercenary guild were, but now it doesn't seem to be very good, I take out such a large commission every year, and now it looks like I have thrown it into the river......"
With that, he kicked a rattan chair into the pool.
There was a big splash in the pool, startling a flock of resting birds on the garden feeding pillars.
Only the butler stood aside with an unchanged face.
"What's the news from Commander Surdak?" Josh. Baron Golding asked again.
The butler immediately said: "Not yet, it's just that the president of the mercenary union Buckley went to the garrison camp, as if he wanted to get people back." β
"Looks like I'm going to have to go there myself!"
Josh. Baron Goldin said with a sigh.
β¦β¦
Josh. Baron Golding arrived at the gate of the barracks in a carriage and was stopped by the guards at the gate.
The entourage stepped forward to inform Josh. After being Baron Golding, he was still stopped outside the barracks by the guards, and waited for a while before being allowed to enter the barracks, but the magic caravan was not allowed to enter.
Josh. Baron Golding stepped out of the magic caravan and walked into the barracks, the guards not stopping the ten men around him.
Walking into the barracks, I just saw the cavalry in the barracks finishing dinner, all the cavalry lined up to put the dinner plate into the hot water basin, and the table knives were thrown into another box, the atmosphere in the barracks was a little serious, and all the cavalry soldiers chatted with the lowest sound.
When I passed by the playground, I saw the cavalry training ground planned on the playground, the archery range was very clean, and the wooden people who practiced were scarred. Baron Golding's heart sank a little.
Although he does not have his own private army, it does not mean that he has no vision.
It can be seen that this cavalry battalion usually receives a lot of daily training, and the training ground is very formal, thinking that it is such a group of cavalry that overthrows the armed regiment that he has worked so hard to form during the day.
Josh. Baron Golding felt a little inexplicably irritable in his heart, and he guessed that this meeting with Commander Surdak was destined to not be too pleasant.
The cavalry guards led him to a small single building, signaling his ten retinues to wait outside, and then knocked on the door of the small building and led Josh, the owner of the firm. Baron Golding entered the living room of the small building.
β¦β¦
Josh. Baron Golding walked into the living room of the small building, only to find some people sitting on the sofa in the living room.
He walked into the living room, stood on the soft wool carpet and looked around, nodded slightly at the guests on the sofa, and sat alone on a sofa, with the aristocratic temperament on his body that made him look different.
The two men sitting in the corner, who looked like shop owners, looked at Josh. Baron Golding's eyes were flattering.
Josh. When Baron Goldin greeted them, they all scrambled to their feet.
Seeing that the people sitting in the living room were not anything special, Josh. Baron Golding's heart settled down a little.
He took out a pipe, put it to his lips, turned to Lady Luna, smiled and said:
"Lady Luna, I heard that you have recently taken over the day-to-day affairs of the town hall, and I haven't had time to congratulate you these days."
Although he said this in his mouth, the eyes he showed still didn't care, and he didn't look down on this old woman who was no longer young in his heart.
She was able to become Mayor Marko's secretary, not to let Mayor Marco lie in her bed.
Now that Mayor Marco has been detained in Wilkes City, she has lost her biggest backer, and the capital of her body has quietly slipped away with her youth a few years ago.
Now she is like a bagasse that has been drained of sweet water, and has no value.
Madame Luna hurriedly smiled, the crow's feet in the corners of her eyes were clearly visible, and she hurriedly said, "Baron Golding, let you see a smile!" I'm just temporarily managing the day-to-day affairs of the Dodan Town Hall until the new mayor arrives. β
Josh. Baron Goldin only greeted him politely, and then said to the tax collector of Batra:
"I heard you were a little frightened the other day, but now you seem to be recovering well, I hope I trust Mayor Mare not to be a bastard like Marko!"
He didn't even have a perfunctory mood for the tax collector of Batra, he knew that there was a pair of eyes on his trading house in the town hall every day and every moment.
But Josh. Baron Golding didn't think it would have any effect on him, so he stared at it! I can't eat it......
In his eyes, Tax Officer Batra looked like a green bean fly, and if he could slap him to death, he would never be polite.
Now he could only endure the nausea in his throat and watch him sit across from him.
Josh. In the end, Baron Golding said very kindly to the president of the mercenary union Buckley: "Originally, I wanted to ask you to come with me, but I didn't expect you to be one step ahead of me, and I would find a way to get this group of mercenaries out......"
President Buckley smiled wryly, nodded slightly, and said, "I'm really causing you trouble, I didn't expect them to be so bold as to fight against the local garrison, these people are usually lazy, and they don't even remember the imperial calendar, I think they should be detained in the barracks for a few more days and suffer hardship." β
At this time, Surdak came out of the study with a parchment book, and he sat silently on the main seat in the living room in the salamander leather armor.
Only then did he look up and say to President Buckley, "You are Buckley, the president of the Mercenary Guild?" β
The mercenary guild's president, Buckley, smiled awkwardly and said to Surdak:
"Commander Surdak, those mercenaries in the union have caused you trouble, I heard that they offended you at the door of the trading house in the morning, I think there must be some misunderstanding here, they are a bunch of reckless men, a bunch of brainless people."
"Although they have usually made some contributions to Dodan Town, they have always been very arrogant, they must not have recognized your identity!"
"Otherwise, I don't think they will offend you, no matter how bold they are!"
"In this regard, I also hope that they can learn some lessons, our mercenary union has made mistakes in management, and we accept punishment......"
Surdak didn't expect President Buckley of the Mercenary Guild to put his posture so low, and the words he had prepared were useless, so he groaned a little before saying:
"Wait for each mercenary to pay fifty silver coins and take it away, the military camp will not arrange dinner for them, if this happens in the future, they will no longer accept fines, and the town will arrange for them to carry out labor reform in Duodan Town, you don't have to come to me, if you want to make their sentence shorter, you have to ask someone who is familiar with the calendar of the Green Empire to defend them......"
The mercenary guild's president Buckley's eyes widened and he looked at Surdak blankly.
Surdak smiled 'hehe', patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay if you don't understand it now, these systems will be established little by little, and you will soon be familiar with them!" β
