Volume 1 The Birth of a Young Dragon Chapter 40 The Wolf King's Sword Blade Comes Out
The next day, Count Harlan got up early, he had the habit of practicing swordsmanship in the morning, and never slept in.
Earl Harlan stared at the stake in front of him, his eyes like lightning, piercing through the void, and his body leaped violently, as if he had been struck down from a high peak.
I saw a flash of sword light, and the wooden stake on the opposite side immediately split apart, leaving a terrible sword mark, clean and neat, ruthless and ruthless.
And Draxel kept an eye on his every move, so he woke up early and witnessed it all.
He secretly praised in his heart: This TMD is really good swordsmanship, and labor and management will have to practice this hand sooner or later......
However, the baron was ridiculed by the system: [I think you forget it, every time you get up early to have breakfast, the sword is TMD and I haven't practiced it once......]
"Good morning, Count Harlan. I've got breakfast ready, and after you're done, let's go eat together, I'll wait for you. ”
"Thanks, you're so kind, Draxle."
After that, the two had breakfast together. During the meal, Drassel asked:
"So, what is the kingdom's plan next? My judgment is that the enemy will not attack Uxhall again. ”
Earl Harlan drank the mushroom soup and said:
"Well, Baron, I agree with your judgment, I didn't bring troops here to garrison and defend here."
"What's next for you?"
"We have received a tip-off that a large enemy army will gather near Fort Duck in about ten days, and the village of Hico belongs to that castle."
"So you're going to attack that castle as a striker?"
"Well, baron, I have to say, you are very clever, you are right again. But it's not just me who is a forward force, but other lords who will march there one after another. My preliminary estimate is that by then we will have four or five hundred men fighting there. ”
At this time, Drassel pondered, and after a moment asked, "What is the task that the kingdom has given me?" Playing with you? Or ......"
Looking at the handsome baron in front of him, Count Harlan still recognized him, and his hospitality to himself was definitely luxurious. So he didn't intend to hide it, so he explained:
"Actually, there have been a lot of comments in the kingdom lately, all of which are demeaning to you. Everyone says that you are not worthy of the position, and you can't protect Uxhall and its three subordinate villages.
But you gag all of them with a victory, and that's what I admire about you, men should speak with their actions!
Of course, King Haraus X is equally pleased with your victory, and he knows that you have just been through a fierce battle.
At this point, you shouldn't have many soldiers left, so I didn't assign you a new mission, and now you're free. ”
Receiving so many messages at once, Drassell felt a little headache, but he reacted quickly, and he replied:
"Thank you for being honest, Count Harlan. If the enemy gathers after ten days, I think I can muster a force to assist you in your attack. ”
"That's great, but I have some other things to attend to, and I'm leaving today. If you're really willing to help, we'll see you at Fort Duck in 10 days! ”
"No problem, see you at Fort Duck!" With that, Draxle stood up and shook his hand.
"Goodbye then, thank you again for your hospitality, Drasseur."
"You're welcome, I wish you all the best on your journey."
Looking at the distant figure of Count Harlan, Drassel breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally invited the big Buddha away.
However, Count Harlan is still very polite, understands etiquette very well, and has a good character. Drassel is looking forward to it and looking forward to becoming good brothers with him in the future.
However, the system has come to "poke the tires" again. [Evaluation: Can you really put together a force?] 】
TMD, who says it can't be made up? Am I not still a cavalry of 20 taverns? Less is a little less, and it's also considered a troop......
Time was like water, and soon seven days passed. Draxel estimated that it would take about three days for the troops to advance to Fort Duck.
So today, it's the day to set off for the troops!
In the past seven days, Draxle has also made a lot of preparations. The current town of Uxhall has been fully restored.
On the side of the merchant Manid, the operation of grapes is also in its infancy.
[Uxhall and its three subordinate villages have collected a total of 3,500 dinars of gold this week. Add to that the ransom for the women and children, and you now have a total of 8,500 dinars left. 】
Draxel communicated with the system in his heart: Very good, no new soldiers will be recruited this week, and we will talk about it after the training ground and watchtower are completed.
Regarding the difference between the training ground and the watchtower, Drassel also secretly reached a shameless agreement with him. In short, Safiya could not have known......
[Received.] 】
Then, Dlaser commanded:
"Xiao Nan, this is 7,500 dinars, you can go to the tavern now, give her this money, tell her the extra 500, and when I invite her to drink."
"Yes, my lord. But I also want to go to war......"
"If you don't want to go up, I want you too. You go now! Then we will meet us at Fort Ke, understand? ”
"Understood, then I'm leaving, master." Xiao Nan had an excited smile on his face, and he rode away at a gallop.
"Safiya, after deducting Xiao Nan, there are still 3 taverns to hire knights, and 17 taverns to hire light cavalry, you take them to the gate of the town to standby."
"Standby? Baron, what are you going to do? ”
"Huh." The young dragon Wren was also on the side to help.
[That is, all day long, what is it that you want to ascend to heaven. 】
Drasel smiled, scratched Safiya's nose lightly, and explained:
"You forgot, the blacksmith promised us that the sword would be cast in a week, and it should be finished today, so I'll go over first."
"Oh oh oh ~ you have a good memory, then I'll go to the door to wait for you first, boys, let's go~"
"Whew~"
[My mother is really heroic, a heroine in the middle of the girl~]
Hearing such a disgusting rainbow fart, Draxle laughed out loud, and it took a long time for him to come to his senses, and he said:
"Wren, don't be a sycophant, she doesn't understand what you're saying."
So, 3 taverns hired knights, and 17 taverns hired light cavalry, and they followed Safiya and walked slowly......
After a few moments, Draxle came to the door of the blacksmith Lao Ao's house.
The blacksmith heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the door, and guessed that Count Drasseur had come to fetch his sword.
Immediately holding his sword, he excitedly opened the door and trotted over to Draxle.
"Good morning, my honorable master. I've forged this sword, it's perfect! It's going to be the sword I'm proud of in my blacksmith career! ”
"Well, to hear you say that, it's definitely a good sword, let me see ......"
