Chapter 293. The station of the Lion Knights
He didn't hesitate for too long, and when the noon sun eased a little, Kant led the team to set off.
The caravan of 50 dromedaries was different from the one it had arrived, and it was full of all kinds of goods left behind by the merchants, such as iron tools, agricultural tools, grain, etc., and the "Drehem" castle was now considered to be a much-needed material.
And just behind the caravan, there was a long stretch of hemp rope, and more than 300 captives with their heads bowed and bowed were tied in strings.
These captives will be the best labor force.
Kant said that all these captives were transported to the salt mines and became slaves to shovel salt, but what he said was true.
In that desolate area, no civilians were willing to go there, even with a love of labor, they still had to rotate every month, otherwise the cruel and barren saline land would drive them crazy.
Since he has become a captive, there is no so-called human rights.
They don't feel it.
With just a small number of infantry as guards, this group of captives can be made into the most well-behaved slaves.
Oh, maybe that's a bit of a contradiction.
It should be said that as long as this group of captives can see the depths of the Narun Desert, the endless salt-alkali flats and sand seas, they will understand that they will not be able to survive even if they lose the supplies given to them by Kant.
The brutal Naron Desert can wipe out the strongest of humans in an endless sea of sand.
The sun is scorching like a steamer.
The night was as cold as an ice cellar.
There was no food, no water, no sheltered tents, no camels to walk around.
Not to mention the lack of experience in desert survival.
As long as you fall into the Naren Desert, even if you escape from Kant's control and gain so-called freedom, it is only a shortcut to death, and there is no second way to go.
If they want to survive, they can only obediently choose to obey.
So Kant was reassured of them.
Even the surrounding Svadian knights were scattered around, not paying much attention to the captives who were trudging through the desert with their hands on their backs.
Just this group of unarmed, hungry and exhausted captives.
Not enough to start an unsolvable rebellion.
Not to mention.
Kant didn't mind killing some disobedient captives.
The pace of the march was not too slow.
Soon, on the eve of the end of the new Monday, Kant and his knights returned to the sentry oasis in the light of dusk with caravans laden with caravans and exhausted captives.
Early in the morning, close to 70,000 dinars of military expenses for maintenance had been deducted.
Kant's savings were cut in half.
But when he returned to the Sentry Oasis, there was good news.
The caravan to the Pander continent led by Jocelyn himself had just returned early this morning, not only loaded with all kinds of goods, but also brought back a profit of 300,000 dinars to Kant.
All 5 bags of gold were sold out of stock in the capital of the Kingdom of Sarion.
That's really good news.
Let Fatis arrange the captives and caravan, and Kant quickly returns to the Consulate.
Jocelyn was waiting in the hall.
Seeing Kant coming in, he hurriedly smiled and stroked his chest: "Lord Kant, this trade did not disappoint you, on the Pander continent, the Kingdom of Sarion alone has eaten all the gold in full, and King Ulclery of Sarion, expressed his heartfelt respect for you for opening a trade route, and entrusted me to pass on to you a gift of his respect for you." β
As he spoke, Jocelyn took out a letter in his arms, held it in both hands and respectfully handed it to Kant, and at the same time sighed: "Thanks to you, Lord Kant, our Jocelyn family has restored its reputation and regained its noble status. β
"Well, congratulations, Jocelyn."
Kant was slightly stunned.
Although he still didn't understand what was going on, he still took the envelope and sat back in his place, and said calmly: "This trip to Pande has been very rewarding, isn't it?" β
"Thanks to your wise decisions, of course." Jocelyn sighed sincerely.
"Hmm."
Kant nodded and opened the envelope.
Above it is a delicate pattern, a traditional lion coat of arms from the Kingdom of Sarion.
It is similar to the Kingdom of Svadia, but because of its stronger national strength, the decoration is more exquisite, the texture is clearer, even the texture of the paper is fine, and the ink used for writing has a bit of perfume taste.
This made Kant can't help but raise an eyebrow.
The kingdom of the original version is really very different from the kingdom of these mods.
It can be reflected in the national strength.
Calradia is similar to the middle of the Middle Ages on Earth, while Pande is more like the late stage, and if it is the world of Warwinds, it is more like the modern era with fantasy magic, so the strength of each country is different.
It also caused different mods to help Kant.
As in the envelope of King Ulclery of Saarion.
It is full of admiration for Kant, although it is all useless nonsense, but at the end, it is accompanied by a gift belonging to the Kingdom of Sarion, promised by the lord.
Kant will be the honorary lord of the Kingdom of Sarion.
You can exercise all the decrees of the Kingdom of Sarion, and enjoy all the honors of the Kingdom of Sarion.
Including the formation of the Lion Knights.
On the retina, a system dialog pops up suddenly.
γDing... System Prompt]
[At present, you have obtained the promise of the Kingdom of Sarion, and you have the status of Lord of Sarion, and you can officially form the Lion Knights in the territory.] And because of your status as an honorary lord, the Kingdom of Sarion will recognize knights from other kingdoms, and they can also be transferred to members of the Lion Knights. γ
[Note: If a strange object [Lion Knights Medal] or "King's Sword" is detected, you can use this medal as a basis to consume 10,000 reputation points and 100,000 dinars to officially build the Lion Knights station.] In this station, other knights can also join the Lion Knights for systematic learning. γ
Kant swept the system prompt.
Compared to when the [Sword of Kings] was first obtained, there have been completely different changes.
Just as it was not stated in the notes at the time, even other knights could join the Lion Knights, become members of the order, undergo systematic training, and be promoted to stronger classes.
Apparently now, with the recognition of the Kingdom of Sarion, Kant's authority has been greatly opened.
For example, the key building of the [Lion Knights Residence] is officially constructed!
"New Tier 6 Transcendent Knight."
Kant narrowed slightly.
Based on the experience of his previous life, of course he knew quite well about this Lion Knights, which was fundamentally different from the Svadia Royal Knights, which was equal to the new level 6 transcendent knights, and belonged to the Pande Continent, the top class of the Saarion Kingdom!
It's better than the Knight of Saarion, and it's even higher than the Level 6 Transcendent Knight!
Rank as the Royal Knight of Swadia.
But even though they are both level 6 cavalry, the combat styles and tactics of the two sides are completely different.
This is the limit of national strength.
Just like the Kingdom of Svadia, itself is the number one cavalry power on the continent of Calradia, and it is invincible in heavy cavalry, and if the two legions form a formation in a flat area to fight head-on, no kingdom is an opponent.
Even the Kugit Khanate and the Salander Sultanate, the two cavalry powers, did not dare to confront them head-on.
So the iron horsemen of the Svadia kingdom can charge unscrupulously.
But the Lion Knights are different.
On the Pander continent, the Kingdom of Sarion is not the strongest.
Although it inherited most of the inheritance of the Pander Empire, this kingdom is still a new kingdom, surrounded by the Ravenston Kingdom, the Fields Wills Republic, the Duchy of Daxia, the Cato tribe, and the Barcos Empire, which once almost annexed the entire Pander continent from other continents in the open sea!
Although the kingdom of Sarion was strong and had heavy cavalry as the core of its attack, these cavalry had to rely heavily on the cooperation of heavy infantry and crossbowmen to be most effective against other strong enemies.
As a result, the heavy cavalry of the Kingdom of Sarion was not actually a charge cavalry that launched an assault to tear apart the enemy's formation.
Rather, it is a mobile heavy tank that rushes into the enemy's ranks and slashes and slashes.
It's a tactical role to go in close combat!
This distinction is like the difference between all of Kant's two top archers, similar to the Vikia Marksman, who is good at shooting volleys in clusters, covering the rain of arrows, and the Livingston Ranger, who shoots quickly and kills enemies with a non-stop rain of arrows.
If the cavalry of the Kingdom of Sarion rushed into the enemy's army with such impunity as the cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia, it is estimated that it is not the enemy's troops that will be rushed, but the inevitable losses of their own ace iron cavalry in the charge.
The crossbowmen on the Pander continent are stronger than those on the Calradia continent.
For example, Ravston Ranger.
On the continent of Calradia it is enough to compare with the strongest Vecchian marksman.
However, on the continent of Pande, they are only the best civilian archers in terms of cost performance, and the best archers who defend the Misty Mountains against the uncivilized barbarians who have little armor.
If the troops are counted as ranged troops, the Livingston Ranger can only be considered a mass production advantage.
And when it comes to long-range firepower.
Whether it is the Silver Mist Ranger, or the Barkley Sappers, the Ebony Gauntlets, the Daxia Battle Archers, the Order Fire Crossbows, etc., they are all extremely terrifying existences, and when the number reaches the ground, they can shoot the enemy in front of them alive and collapse.
Not to mention the long-range invincible Noldor Elves.
There's a saying that goes.
The Noldor Ranger's firepower only lasts 5 minutes, but he can shoot your steel shield half a map apart in 5 seconds!
The issue of classes has always been a unique highlight of each mod, and it is even more difficult to understand.
Kant can't figure it out now.
"I don't have to think too much, though."
Rubbing his eyebrows, Kant looked calm.
The Royal Knight of Svadia is responsible for charging and crushing the enemy.
The Lion Knights are responsible for slashing and slashing after rushing into enemy lines, speeding up the process of enemy collapse.
It's a perfect match!
"Build."
The eyes flickered, Kant's system of thinking and communication.
10,000 prestige, 100,000 dinars disappeared immediately, but in the eastern military district of the castle "Drehem", in a clearing next to the barracks and training grounds, brand new buildings began to appear, with the distinctive characteristics of the Kingdom of Sarion.
At the same time, at the top of the building, a golden lion on a red background is fluttering in the wind.
A building that can upgrade a knight to a lion knight, and the building is complete! 10
