Chapter 449: Mercenaries
As soon as the people came back to their camp, they made a lot of noise, there were many reasons for this, there were many reasons for the people themselves, there were many people who were unwilling to be restrained, they were used to being free in the mountains and forests, and they knew very well that once they joined the Black Domain City, they would be tipped to a chain around their necks.
Of course, there are also the reasons of the Black Domain City itself, Zhen Er lured the Evil Talents to come to Murowei to help the Black Domain City, after seeing the tragedy of the war, although he obtained a lot of loot, he still thought that it was too dangerous here, and he didn't want to leave his life in Murowei in vain.
There are also a lot of people who want to stay, their status in the tribe itself is very low, and their strength is not outstanding, it is difficult to get ahead in the tribe, thinking that they can show their skills in Black Domain City and look for opportunities.
"We can stay and help Black City for a while, and leave when we earn enough money, this is the opinion of the thirty-six people of our tribe?"
"The war here is much more brutal than we imagined, if you want to stay, stay, don't count our tribe!"
"There are countless cattle and sheep here, as long as we fight with our lives, we will definitely be able to fight our own rich ......."
“……”
Seeing the commotion around him one after another, Wu Yi raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "Let's follow Ajana Ye to Murowei, or listen to Ajanaye's advice first, we will not die for Black Domain City in vain?" ”
Zhen Er's current authority can't suppress these people at all, the people are originally a tribal alliance system, and when they encounter major things, the leaders of the tribe discuss together, and no one can make a decision.
"Everyone! Listen to my words, stay in the Black Domain City, live and fight together with the Black Domain City, this is the hope of the rise of the Yan people, we have been hiding in the deep mountains and old forests for countless years, and now we are being oppressed by the Xi people and the Khitan people, even the Bohai Kingdom will not let us go, do you really think that we can live happily for the rest of our lives? ”
"You are fighting for Black Domain City, you are also fighting for yourself, and you are also fighting for your own tribe to find a way out, if we want to be strong, we must fight with our lives, now is our best opportunity. As long as you join the Black Domain, you will get the same treatment as the people of the Black Domain, we will get more cattle, sheep and horses, we will have our houses and women in the Black Domain, and we will have our children, do you think you can get these in the Evil Tribe? ”
Wu Sugu glanced at Wu Yi, turned his head to look at Zhen Er, and said, "Ayana Ye! It's not that we don't believe you, but you answer us a question, how is Black City going to settle us people, we are born warriors and will not be afraid of battle, but we will not participate in unclear battles? ”
Wu Yi is a rare wise man among the Tattar people, and when he found that Black Domain City was desperately trying to win over his own people, he had a very bad feeling, and of course he would not easily believe Zhen Er's words.
"Ajanaye! We can stay and fight for the city, but the city must give us a guarantee that we can leave here at any time, and if we don't agree to this condition, we will leave now? ”
Zhen Er's eyes narrowed into a line, this was already the worst result, but he couldn't do anything, he could only say: "If you are not willing to join the Black Domain City, Uncle Wang will not force you, you can form a mercenary army alone, but you will not be treated the same as the Black Domain people, you will only be a soldier hired by the Black Domain City, and the forty percent of the booty you capture in the future can belong to you, which cannot include the prisoners, this is the promise given to you by the Black Domain City and Uncle Wang, and it is also the final bottom line, You can tell these words to each of the Tatars and let them choose for themselves? ”
"Mercenaries?" Wuyi's eyes lit up and continued: "Tell us, what is a mercenary? ”
"A mercenary is an army that fights for money, as the saying goes: there must be brave men under heavy rewards, and it is a special group in war, which regards war as a part of their lives. If you choose to be willing to become a mercenary, then every time you fight, it has nothing to do with Black Domain City, you can choose to go to the battlefield, or you can choose to leave at any time, but you will not get any help from Black Domain City, everything you need also needs to be purchased with money, such as weapons and equipment, etc., because you no longer belong to Black Domain City? ”
Zhen Er was very annoyed in his heart, but he still patiently told the characteristics and nature of the mercenaries, and he also knew the intentions of his people very well, and he could understand what they wanted, but he couldn't change their minds.
Mercenaries have been around for a long time, from barbarians in the ancient Roman army to European prisoners exiled to Africa during the post-colonial period, mercenaries have long been seen as a group of "money-for-money" villains.
There were also many mercenaries in ancient China, and after Zhuge Liang conquered Nanzhong during the Three Kingdoms period, he used the local minority soldiers to establish a Shu Han strong army--- Wudang Flying Army.
Another example is the mercenaries during the Wuhu and Sixteen Kingdoms period--- the beggar army who made a living from the knife. Even the most legendary story of the Tang Dynasty in which one person destroyed a country has the mercenaries of Tibet.
"We are fighting for the Black Domain City, and we have to pay for the weapons, armor, horses, etc., do we have to do it ourselves?"
Although the mercenaries in Zhen Er's mouth were tempting and could get forty percent of the loot, they were still surprised to hear the harsh system of the mercenaries.
"Since the mercenaries have received forty percent of the booty, do we still want us to give the mercenaries more weapons and horses, food and grass, doesn't it mean that most of the captured booty will be given to the mercenaries?"
Wu Sugu is right to think about it, it is impossible for Black Domain City to bear everything, and in the end, he has to pay forty percent of the loot, and immediately exchanged glances with Wu Yi and said: "We have just arrived in Black Domain City, it is still too early to talk about what to join Black Domain City, I agree to the terms of mercenaries on behalf of my tribe, but we want fifty percent of the loot, otherwise we will leave here?" ”
In fact, Wu Sugu and several people also exchanged opinions in private, and also pulled a lot of people to stand on their side, wanting to get greater benefits from Black Domain City, but seeing Black Domain City's tough attitude, he knew that it was impossible, so he said his bottom line.
Zhen Er didn't dare to agree to Wusugu and a few people immediately, after all, these people were his own people, and exchanged opinions with the rest of the Yan people and told Wang Peng the news. Soon, more than 1,500 people discussed some details of the mercenaries in detail with the Black Domain City, and on the third day, they signed a mercenary agreement with the led Usugu, Wuyi and others, and the first mercenary army in the Black Domain City was born, and in the following years, there were more and more such mercenaries, but these are all for later.
