own forces?

Joseph frowned, and when he looked at Gould again, his expression became a little more serious: "Go on!"

The fat man smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly: "Boss Jose, although you are now a viscount by His Majesty the Emperor, you are also serving as an important position as the commander of the Sadland County Guard and Garrison. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoBut if you go to Moxi, even if you have an army of seven or eight thousand people in name, but you can really mobilize, I'm afraid you won't even be able to move three thousand!

Not to mention anything else, I, Gould, have been in Moxi for eight or nine years, but I know very well what the power of the Moxi Army is. The army there is almost always half army and half bandits, and they are on the northwest border all the year round, and fighting and killing people are commonplace.

In the face of such a group of guys, if they don't have their own foundation and forces, I'm afraid it will be difficult to mobilize these old soldiers. ”

The fat man said this, although there was a lot of noise around him, he still unconsciously lowered his voice:

"And according to the current situation in Moxi, I don't think it will be much more stable in recent years, not to mention, you killed a prince of Macedonia, although this Barcelus expedition has damaged some of the elite of the golden armor, but the main force is still there. Even if you don't act rashly now, I'm afraid this hatred will definitely be counted on your head!

When I left the county town of Sadland, I heard the old troops in my city mention this matter, saying that the Moxi army had been in internal disarray since the departure of General Heru.

Some generals naturally hope that Heru will return to Moxi to preside over the overall situation, but some generals see that after Heru is transferred back, the situation in Moxi is uncertain, and they may have some ambitions in their hearts, and some generals even have the heart to flatter the new acting governor in the imperial capital......

It can be said that the situation in Moxi is even more chaotic now, although you are the military and political governor of the county appointed by His Majesty the Emperor, but after all, there is a Sistine control above. If you don't have your own forces, even if you can gain a foothold in Sadland, I'm afraid it will be difficult to balance between the Moxi Army and the various forces of the empire. ”

Jose looked at this reckless man with a hippie smile in surprise, and didn't expect this guy to say this. However, with Gould's talented mind, it is probably reasonable to think of this, and his words can be regarded as heart-to-heart words.

So Joseph also nodded, his eyes were a little solemn: "I naturally understand what you said, but these are easy to say, if you really recruit a group of forces that are loyal to you, I'm afraid it will take some means." ”

"That's what we're here for today. Gould smiled and said to Joseph: "This athletic conference was originally just for the warriors of the empire to sign up for a competition to promote the martial spirit of the empire.

Finally, the winners of the tournament are received by His Majesty the Emperor, and even awarded some honorable warrior badges and rich rewards. There have even been examples of samurai who became famous for participating in such a grand event, and eventually became court samurai hired by the Imperial Palace!

In recent years, some convicted prisoners have even been allowed to participate in athletic competitions because of official authorization. And within the law, if these prisoners have won enough games, they can get a commutation of their sentences or even an amnesty for all crimes!

As far as I know, the Bright Empire, especially in the Imperial Capital, has even seen the emergence of many professional samurai groups who make a living by participating in competitive tournaments.

Most of these teams are mercenary groups and other organizations, they recruit warriors with extraordinary martial skills, train weekdays, and wait until the winter of each year to flock to the imperial capital to participate in such competitions, or escort some chambers of commerce and hunting magical beasts and other tasks......"

Speaking of this, Gould winked at Joseph and said, "There are even some slave traders who are greedy for profit, who will sell some strong and strong slaves from all over the world, and then hire samurai of a certain rank to train them, and then sign up for the competition.

Once these slaves win the event, the slave trader receives the prize money earned by the slave, and the slave receives a free body. Therefore, although the team composed of these prisoners and slaves is not high in strength, they are especially willing to work the field, and they can often burst out with amazing combat effectiveness.

In particular, those slave fighters who did not have freedom were able to create amazing achievements and fame almost every year......"

When Joseph heard this, he couldn't help frowning slightly:

Slave Warrior?!

"Boss, you must have heard what I meant...... Yes, my idea is to recruit these slave warriors! Compared to the other ordinary mercenaries, their foundation is cleaner and simpler, and because of the competition, these guys are all strictly trained, not only are they strong guys, but they also have certain fighting skills!

You must know that the cruelty in this arena is not necessarily much lower than that of the battlefield, not to mention the standards stipulated by the laws of the empire, and even in private there is a difference between buying life and buying death in betting...... As soon as you enter the arena, it's either life or death, and it's a gamble for those mercenaries who lick the blood with their knives, let alone those slave warriors!"

When Joseph heard him say this, his eyes lit up: indeed, according to Gould, the slave warriors were far superior to the mercenaries and samurai in terms of loyalty and management, and were strictly controlled by the slave traders. In addition, they are all strong and strong, and they have undergone rigorous training, so they can have the ruthlessness and tenacity to fight to the death for survival and freedom!!

The background is clean, easy to accept and manage, and there is a certain amount of martial arts and combat effectiveness...... Such a group of slave warriors does sound like a more suitable candidate for the pro-guard.

"It's just that the only downside to these guys is that ...... It's a lot of money!" Gould said this, and couldn't help but touch his chin: "Most of these slave warriors have gone through several years of training before they can set foot in the ring, and whether it is to feed slaves, or to train in ordinary times, and the registration fee for the tournament is borne by the slave traders.

So if we want to buy these slaves, I'm afraid we will inevitably be slaughtered by these guys. But boss, you are a magician and a nobleman, so as long as you show your identity, you don't worry too much about these things. ”

"Money is not a problem, if you can really recruit a good group of guards, it doesn't matter if you spend a little more money!"

Jose shook his head directly, he had just gotten five or six high-level magic scrolls from Kay, and if he sold one casually, he was afraid that he could get hundreds of thousands of gold coins. After all, such a thing is worth far more to a mage than those gold coins!

Thinking of this, Jose was not interested in the next match in the ring, but pulled the fat man out of the arena and walked towards the market of those slave traders, according to Gould.
