099.Flower of Evil (1)
It was produced from the farm's own wheat, composted, cultivated, and rested, and Bran took a lot of effort to take care of it. Later, it was handed over to other hired farmers, but it had to be done in his way.
Most of the wheat is sold after brewing. But the subjects are all their own mercenaries.
From inns, pubs, food shops, sweater supplies, and even currency exchange banks.
In all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation, Bran participated in the needs of the mercenaries and firmly controlled them.
Selling his life for himself, the coins he gave always came back to Bran with another kind of consumption.
Eternal life and eternity, they will all look at Bran's face.
Wallon smelled the wine, didn't think so much, didn't fear anything, and took a big sip, the taste was sweet and rich.
Then he handed it back to Bran, but Bran waved his hand and took out another bag of ale to drink it himself.
Bran hates being unconscious, and this bag is a little less concentrated and not intoxicating.
Wallon and Bran looked at each other, and after a moment of glare, Wallon smiled, touched Bran's wine bag, and continued to drink.
Men's friendship is complex but simple.
Before Bran came out, he also learned a few foul words in Viking swearing.
This move won the favor of these people.
The blood of the Vikings existed in them, and although it took root in Swabian, the name of the barbarian has never been broken.
Because the Viking kingdoms of Finland, Norway, and Denmark were still against the Crusaders.
The Illuminati religion they believe in is also integrated with the beliefs of the Viking ancestors.
Doctrinal disputes, and land conquests.
Over the past 100 years, there have been several minor jihad wars alone.
There is such a relationship, the descendants of the Vikings have always been a little estranged from the people of the mainland.
……
From this day on, Wallon and Bran's team eased up a lot.
It also forced the Teutonic mercenaries to communicate with these Swabians. Enhance relationships.
There was no rain for the past few days, and the walking was fast, and the team gradually gathered.
Along the way, the country is full of taverns and inns, and business is very prosperous.
Some nomadic prostitutes and street performers also followed the procession, making some deals with the soldiers when the nobles were not looking.
When the king came in person, the little nobles did not dare to make trouble, and basically the consumption would be paid, and the bullying of men and women was greatly reduced.
The two strongest nobles in Bavaria, one is Tan Luo and the other is Emily.
Although the second prince Giles supported Tan Luo, he was not dominant.
Chiefly, his fiefdom was too barren.
Emily was also in the brigade, and her fiefdom was much richer, and with the treasure her mother gave her, she sent 800 troops and led two regiments of men and horses.
The emblem used is also a holy white deer, but the deer faces to the left, indicating a female deer.
Emily's armor is extremely gorgeous, and it pierces her upper body with gold threads, and the crown and gold armor shine in the sun.
"Queen of Swabia", this nickname is not used to address the princess, but her.
Along the way, Emily contacted the lord knights of East Swabia and told them to meet at the place where the king passed by within a specified time.
At the same time, Bran offered to settle in the castle first, and then the team would catch up.
He asks Emily to explain to Deman.
At present, Bran's position is in East Swabia, even if he wants to escape, he can only run in the direction of Bavaria, and before Bran had a grudge with the Star Mercenary Group, plus there is a relationship with Vesta, King Deman is also relieved of this proposal.
But Bran had to return before he could set foot on Bavarian soil.
With this answer, Bran immediately headed for the Knights' Castle.
As Bohemia got closer and closer, the matter of Roland's sword kept coming to Bran's mind.
As Bran made his way to the Knights' small castle, Vista followed suit, not in a marching group, but in three carriages, followed by the physician and the female officers.
All eleven people quickly caught up with the royal army that had stopped due to the rain before.
To avoid leaks, Vesta had to wait until dusk and secretly send a servant to find Jura, the knight of her realm.
The old knight thought he had seen the wrong person.
But when Jura was sure to see Vesta, she knelt down on one knee in astonishment.
"Don't kneel, your knees are not good."
"No, my lord, it's etiquette."
After Jura got up hard, it seemed that two more strands of hair had fallen out, and then asked, "Lord, aren't you in the royal court?"
"Don't ask, are you with Bran?"
As a knight of the territory, Jura has also met Bran a few times, and he is loved by the loyal monarch, and he also has a very good impression of such an excellent young man.
"You missed it, Lord Bran went to the Templar Castle and left just one day."
Vesta was disappointed.
"You give me the route map, and I'll follow."
With inconvenient transportation, the route map is a confidential document, with trails, hidden garrisons, etc.
The leading officers in the Wang Division's team will get a copy, and then make a transfer and dispatch afterwards, which Vesta has heard from his aunt.
Jura didn't ask much, and immediately took out the map in his arms, and Vesta looked at it and returned it.
"Don't say much, or leak it."
Jura nodded, and pulled out ten more men to protect Vista and leave.
Coming and going like the wind, Vesta just disappeared into the night.
This is the first time I've been to the East Swabian border, and I've heard some unseen scenery along the way.
But Vesta couldn't appreciate it, she was supposed to rest, and she was very tired and her eyes were red when she traveled like this.
There was always a voice running in her head, which hurt her physically and mentally.
I want to see Bran soon, as long as we are together, her pain will be alleviated.
She took a shortcut, and even braved the rain, and Bran waited for the rain to stop all night, and the two teams arrived in different directions, but almost at the same time.
And Vesta was about three hours faster.
At first glance, Vesta said, "Is this the city?"
The castle is clearly a village.
As an enclave, only the taxes collected are useful, and the castle is old and dilapidated, and even many of the walls are made of wood.
There are no doctors, the villagers are unhealthy, with yellow teeth, and there are always some problems with their bodies, and there are many homeless beggars, prostitutes and itinerant artists.
Because there are many wanderers, the population is quite large.
There are still ten soldiers left in the ragged clothes of the Order, guarding this place.
It was supposed to be eighteen, but eight of them had long since become thieves.
Every year, the Inspector of the Knights leaves after scraping, and this place is basically ungoverned.
Rotten wooden houses, built everywhere outside the castle walls.
On the tower, the archers were asleep, surrounded by uneaten bones crawling with ants.
Chaotic but orderly, basically any right or wrong here can be solved with fists.
Vesta, who is pampered in the territory, is inexplicably disgusted in his heart.
But she's not a master either, and she doesn't want to care.
Vesta had his men pass on the soldiers, who were the forerunners of the Order's Overseers.
Seeing more than a dozen armed soldiers surrounding the carriage, the soldiers guarding the fort immediately greeted Vesta with the most standard military salute and escorted Vesta into the ruined castle. ”
