Chapter 64: Agranis

After an unpleasant meeting, Baier did not come to the stables at the first time, but in order to relieve his troubles, he set up a market in Cologne.

Cologne did not have more goods than the Long Lake Territory, which was often loved by merchants from all over the world due to its unique geographical location.

But sometimes, people here see something special, because this is the seat of the king of Bretonnia, and there are many people from other countries or other territories who come here to please the king, but most of the time it fails.

The losers would start setting up stalls near Laune Castle, and at the moment Bair was looking at the goods.

It must be said that the Colognese were very fond of horseback riding, and there were even more people riding horses on the streets than walking, but most of them were not war horses, but pack horses full of spirit.

Beyer's mount is, of course, a war horse, and its meticulous care has attracted praise from many.

It also made Bair's dull mood much better, and at this moment Sir Flender dared to approach him and say good things about his own father.

"Young master, the master is just a little unable to accept you... Flexible, just like I started with. "Although Sir Fland has tried his best to glorify his young master's unscrupulous means, he can only be described as flexible.

Then he said, "My lord will go to Musilon tomorrow to investigate the enemy." ”

This sentence made Baier's horseback ride stop, but only for a moment, and then he pretended not to care about the short sword sold at the roadside stall.

Jazz continued. "The lord will lead the elite cavalry to reconnoiter the enemy near Musillon's territory by virtue of mobility, and determine whether Maleborg has really used necromancy."

Byer raised his hand at this moment, motioning for Sir to shut up.

Jazz is unrelenting. "Young master, I'm going to see you off tomorrow..."

"Shut up!" It was the first time Bair had yelled at Sir and he suddenly realized that something was wrong with his state, and then sighed again.

In some ways, Sir Flender's affection for him surpassed that of his busy father.

"You're right, you're right, he's a good lord, he's a good duke, he's a good knight."

"But when did he really care about me, and if I were still in Sendeiroh, would he come to me on horseback?"

"Even if my mother is from the empire and her aristocratic status is unstable, what about my eldest brother?"

"He's a well-established Bretonnian nobleman, but he's been asked not to form a chivalrous group with others and go on adventures alone."

"Now I've lost my eyes and I'm being sent to the edge of the territory."

"I really want to beg him to take care of his family a little more!"

Bair's complaint drew the attention of many civilians and his own soldiers, and Bair was furious. ", what are you looking at?! You're in no trouble, are you? ”

Civilians were so frightened that they immediately took a detour, and there was no shortage of vendors who picked up their goods and left.

Sir Flender also felt that the present was very unsightly, and immediately took Baier to the stables, and said nothing more about his father.

Baier also calmed down a little on the road, he had never broken his defenses so much in this world, even if he was used as a tool by Aurora.

In the face of this father, it was as if he had really become a child.

Fortunately, the stables in Cologne are very good, long and large, built inside the Lion Ring, and the royal stables are also the best place in Cologne, where everyone loves horses and everyone keeps horses.

The war horses here are full of energy and can resist the Ding, even with plate armor soldiers, they can easily move for hundreds of miles.

Then Bair was frightened by the price quoted by the steward.

A horse costs 50 gold to bring a groom, and a horse here means that there is a groom.

In other words, 10,000 gold coins and no maintenance costs to equip a cavalry unit of 200 men!

If you include the training of soldiers, plate armor and equipment, the purchase of cavalry guns, as well as chain mail for horses, and saddle horse armor, it will cost more than 20,000 gold coins to form a standard heavy cavalry regiment.

Although the gold crown is not an all-gold currency, it is not without gold, and 20,000 is really astronomical.

However, Baier was also quickly relieved, and recorded that during the last chivalrous war, thousands of knights were dispatched throughout Bretonnia.

That's all 15 of Bretonnia's troops!

Among them, chivalrous knights account for a large proportion, indicating that many people are not plate heavy cavalry.

Then Baier can only negotiate with the merchant for a while, fifty good horses and grooms, a total of two thousand two hundred gold, and some money to repair the stables...

And at this moment, an unpleasant roar broke the quiet business exchange, and Baier looked out of his office window to see a group of chivalrous knights pulling a strange horse.

The horse's hair was long and covered all over its body, and it was shorter than a war horse, but its strength was so strong that several knights could not pull it, and someone had to push its butt to make it move forward.

The mouth has fangs, like a vampire.

Bayer asked the stable keeper, "What's that?" ”

The steward of the stables was counting the total price of the gold coins, and he glanced out the window and said.

"It's called Agranis, a specialty of the Grey Mountains near us, often ridden by orcs, powerful, able to climb rocks, far more endurance than ordinary horses, and extremely bloodthirsty."

"Unfortunately, humans are difficult to ride, and they are so disobedient that even the best grooms and knights of Cologne cannot cure them. But the knights from other places did not know it, and often brought them here, when they found a new breed of horses, and came to us in exchange for money. ”

Bair looked at the horse thoughtfully.

Orcs can ride... In other words, there is more to this world than a horse.

Byer suddenly thought of the big lizards in his territory!

Bair immediately got up and walked out of the office, and the administrator shouted. "My lord, you're not buying a horse?!"

Bayer replied. "I'm going home to raise lizards!"
