Chapter VI The first step in the development of the territory
After Delin handed over the gold to the steward of Luo Lai, he gathered all the soldiers and gathered them in the training ground in the Viscount's Palace. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The four corners of the square are placed with moonstones. This moonstone was taken out of the secret room, and there were a lot of them in there anyway.
At this moment, Delin was already wearing a noble costume and wore a fine sword at his waist.
He doesn't like to wear this costume very much, he prefers to wear the armor worn by warriors and knights, but it's a pity that his body is too small.
Twenty soldiers have already stood in a line, and they are all the strength of the army in Delin's hands.
This should be regarded as the first time Delin has met them in the true sense of the word.
"Good!" Delin exclaimed, full of anger.
The soldiers suddenly shook their bodies, and they all stood up straight, and their spirits immediately became full. They didn't know why, but the young master, who was usually cultivating, actually brought them an urge to surrender.
This is the surrender of a soldier to a general.
In his previous life, Delin, in addition to being the captain of the special forces, was also a general of a 10,000-strong division.
Although the body has changed, that kind of temperament and that kind of momentum have been deeply rooted in the soul.
"Let me tell you a good news for me, a month ago, in fact, my knight's heart was awakened successfully. ”
When the soldiers heard this news, they began to look at each other, a month ago, they heard that the young master had awakened the heart of the knight, and it obviously ended in failure.
"You must have a lot of questions for me, and now you can ask. Delin said.
Anlu is dead, and the next thing to face is the robbers. Delin did not intend to spread the word of Anru's death to the ears of Viscount Mai and tell him to stop his plans so that the robbers would not come.
Delin wants to annihilate this gang of robbers, and he wants to use this excellent record to make some nobles around him understand that the nobles of Slater are not soft persimmons that can be pinched by anyone.
"Young Master Delin, didn't you fail to awaken the knight's heart a month ago, and then weakened for a month?"
"No, the news is fake, I wanted to lie to Anlu, that's why I did it. ”
The soldiers didn't react violently, which made Delin understand that Anlu didn't have a high status in their hearts.
The soldiers looked at Delin, obviously wondering why the young master was doing this.
"Anlu joined us from out of town a few days after my father's death, of course, I reminded me that there was something wrong with this guy, but because my head was a little bad at the time, I didn't believe what Butler Luo Lai's words said. ”
Almost everyone in the entire territory knows that the Viscount has a son and a daughter, the son is not smart and slow, and the daughter is eccentric and has a very flexible head. This son and a daughter are in stark contrast.
Of course, the soldiers knew this, and there was no need for Delin to cover up for his former self.
After a pause, he continued: "After awakening the knight's heart, my head suddenly opened up, hehe. ”
Speaking of this, Delin scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed. The atmosphere around them suddenly became lively, and the soldiers smiled.
They were genuinely happy for Delin, so they wouldn't have to worry that their lord was a bad guy.
"At that moment, recalling all the things I had done before, I found this Anlu very suspicious. I pretended that the knight's heart had failed to awaken, and I lay weak in bed, and then secretly investigated. As a result, I found out that Anlu was in collusion with the robbers. ”
Anru was actually sent by Viscount Mail, and Delin wasn't going to say that.
"What! It's okay to be arrogant at all, but I didn't expect him to collude with the robbers. ”
"Isn't he doing us harm, with our family?"
The soldiers were all indignant, they were all former civilians in Delin Territory, and this was his home.
A black and thin soldier took a step forward and said, "Young Master Delin, Anlu is there now, and we are going to kill him now." With the strength of 20 of us, I think we should be able to fight with him. ”
"Yes, Gray is right. ”
"Master Delin, Anlu is there now. ”
In the face of the excited soldiers, Delin shouted: "Quiet!"
The soldiers immediately stopped talking, and Delin's voice made them instinctively obey.
"Listen to me first, Anlu has been killed by the teacher I recognize, and now his body is in the grove outside the town. ”
Delin could only tell a slight lie, a trainee peak knight can kill a first-order mid-rank warrior, this sentence is said, no one will believe it.
"Good kill!" they shouted.
This is good news for them.
"Young Master Delin's teacher should also be a knight. ”
"Of course, but after the teacher settles the matter, he goes about his business. Delin coughed dryly, and he understood the meaning of the soldiers' words, that is, to meet his teacher.
However, there is really no such person in this world, and Delin can only dispel their thoughts first.
"Oh. ”
The soldiers were a little disappointed, and they wanted to see the demeanor of the high-ranking knights.
"Today, gather all of you here, and there are two more news about you, one good and one bad, and you have to listen to the one first. ”
The soldiers agreed to listen to the bad news first, then the good.
"The bad news is that, according to what I've got, in three days' time, the robbers will come to our raid, and the strength of the robbers is unknown. ”
As soon as the news came out, the soldiers did not flinch at all, but were full of fighting spirit. This performance made Delin very satisfied, and none of his soldiers were of a bad breed.
"Young Master Delin, this is bad news, since the robbers are coming, then we will definitely let them have no return. ”
The dark and thin soldier who spoke, Delin faintly heard just now, his name was Gray.
This guy's jealous and hateful personality makes Delin like it very much.
"Yes, Master Delin, we are not afraid of them. ”
"There are already three robbers who have died at my hands. ”
Delin smiled, "Okay, then we'll let these robbers come and go." ”
"Master Delin, what's the good news?"
"Hehe, the good news is..."Delin glanced at the soldiers, sold the pass, and said, "From this month onwards, you will receive 20 silver coins every month. ”
As soon as this news came out, twenty soldiers immediately shouted happily. This is really good news for them, judging from the living standards of the civilians in Delin Territory, the soldiers can receive 10 silver coins a month, which is already considered high.
Ordinary soldiers in other realms can receive an average of 15 silver coins per month, and Delin has doubled the salary of the native soldiers, which exceeds the salary of most ordinary soldiers in the Blue Shield Principality.
This good news, in any case, was unthinkable to the soldiers.
If the territory wants to develop, the ability to protect itself is very important, which is the reason why Delin started with the army in the first step.
The increase in military pay every month can make soldiers have a greater sense of belonging to this territory, and it is not easy to mutiny, and it can also attract some foreign soldiers to come here as soldiers.
Next, Delin wants to let them compete internally, so that they can improve their combat effectiveness faster.
"Quiet!" the agitated soldiers, each standing up straight, Delin continued: "Twenty of you, now divide me into two squads, each of which is a squad leader. The squad leader's monthly salary is 1 gold coin. ”
The sound of the soldiers' breathing began to get heavier, and generally only advanced warriors had this treatment every month, and they were all trainee warriors.
"The squad leader, naturally, is competent by the strong. Those who think they are strong, stand up for me!"
Out of the twenty soldiers, a total of four soldiers stood out, and Gray was among the four.
"You three, why are you so far away from him?" Delin wondered.
One of the three soldiers began to explain: "Young Master Delin, Gray is recognized as the strongest and most talented of the twenty of us. He was not far from a first-order warrior, and he was also the only one among the twenty of us who could take five moves in Anlu's hands. ”
Delin nodded, indicating that he understood. Gray's strength should be a trainee peak warrior, while the other three soldiers should all be of equal strength and belong to the trainee upper rank warrior.
"Okay, the next three of you will fight, and the one who wins is the captain of the second squad. ”
Seventeen soldiers formed a circle with Delin, and the three of them played against each other in a lot, and one soldier was lucky enough to have a bye in the first round.
Two rounds of the tournament ended quickly, and the man who won the game, the shortest of all the soldiers, was named Richie. He managed to become the captain of the second squad.
"The position of squad leader is not fixed, as long as you have the strength to defeat them, then you can take their place and become the squad leader. Did you hear me clearly?"
"Hear me clearly!" the soldiers were in high spirits.
This is how the advantageous competition among the soldiers was formed.
