Chapter 077. Memories of the Lion Principality
However, Kant also had to be prepared.
The question of one's own safety has never been a trivial matter in Kant's eyes.
"I'm leading the operation."
Kant's fingers looked lightly at the tabletop.
But his brow furrowed slightly, and after a pause, he said, "Let the five Salander riders we currently have, as well as the 10 desert bandits, go to the Solid Stone Pass together." ”
"Okay." Manid nodded, for the military field that he was not good at, he was only responsible for following the arrangement.
Fatis, on the other hand, frowned slightly, and suggested to Kant with great concern: "My lord, why don't you bring more people over?" ”
"No, you don't." Kant smiled: "These people are enough. ”
The nobles of the Lion Principality will not allow strangers, large groups of strange troops to appear in their territory, even in Kant's impression, the baron of the solid stone pass is a new baron who has been canonized as a knight, but for the look at his territory, compared with those old nobles who know how to forbear and compromise, they are more impulsive and excessive.
"Martial nobles." Kant shook his head helplessly, but the corners of his mouth were mocking.
This is the mocking title of the Lion Principality for those who have no background, only know how to fight and kill, and have won the aristocratic class, and the title of the aristocratic class and the court nobles obtained by the merchants donating money, which is a very derogatory term.
Without the so-called aristocratic inheritance, the heritage brought by marriage cannot really be included in the aristocratic circle.
In fact, not only the Duchy of Lion, but also other human kingdoms are similar.
"Do you want to bring some Svadian heavy cavalry?"
Fatis still dissuaded and said: "With these elite heavy cavalry, even if there are only 10 people, it is also a deterrent to those with bad intentions. ”
"It's so, but it's too ostentatious."
Kant shook his head, glanced at the two Swadia heavy cavalry who were standing guard at the door, and sighed lightly in his heart.
These heavy cavalry were indeed elite.
Wearing a full-coverage flat-topped helmet for cavalry, chain mail strung with iron plates and thin rings, a linen robe and a gray cloak hanging down to the calf, plus chain gloves, iron-encrusted cowhide boots, a mace hanging from his belt, a cavalry shield under the cloak, and a cavalry spear on the ground with one hand, it was a light in the night.
It's really conspicuous!
Moreover, even the military horses with majestic horses under their crotches are covered in chain mail and linen jackets, and the sound of chattering and steel puppet-like appearances add to the visual impact of these heavy cavalry.
You must know that this equipment and dress are not shabby in the elite combat sequence of the Lion Principality.
Only knights who belonged to the aristocratic reserve wore this equipment.
Captain Rowan, who escorted Kant, and the 19 cavalrymen under him were only equipped with chain mail, which was due to the fact that they were the cavalry of Duke Cameron's relatives.
Other cavalrymen from ordinary civilian backgrounds can put on chain mail made of iron rings for themselves, which is already amazing.
"We're here to trade."
Kant shook his head, still sighing helplessly: "It's not good to be too ostentatious." ”
Fatis also understood Kant's thoughts, and could only nod: "That's a pity." ”
But think about it, the Salander rider is also a level 4 class, and his combat effectiveness will not be too bad, so there is absolutely no problem in leading 10 desert bandits to escort Kande and Manid back and forth.
There are no enemies in the Naren Desert.
The biggest role of the guard is to deter some ill-intentioned guys after reaching the solid stone pass.
For example, the ubiquitous thieves, thieves, or robbers who dare to appear in the wilderness to rob houses, in fact, in the Duchy of Lion, the problem of law and order has not been good because of years of fighting.
Due to its proximity to the Sanwaya Mountains, there are many demonic creatures and gnolls, and the security problem is even worse.
Even in the villages under its jurisdiction, those peasants are half farmers and half thieves.
When there is work and farm work, they are honest peasants, and once they do not have any work, and in addition to the idle time, in order to subsidize the family or make a small fortune, it is common for groups to act as bandit gangs.
This is not without reason.
The Duchy of Lion is divided into three counties: North, South, and East, and is the poorest in the North County, where the Solid Stone Pass is located.
Despite the Sanwaya Mountains, the heat of the Naryn Desert still has an impact.
The land of the North County is relatively barren, and there is also a slight sandification, only continue to the south, over the plain behind the Lion Mountain, because of the proximity to the Resneston River, close to the vast swamp lake, is the most fertile plain area in the country, responsible for 5% of the country's grain production area, but also the Lion Duke Cameron's direct subordinate South County.
As for East County, it is the territory of Countess Elsara, although it is Kant's aunt and Cameron's cousin, but it is cold in terms of relations, and basically maintains a semi-closed state of not coming to play.
Thinking of this, Kant also came back to his senses.
Fatis and Manid were still whispering security issues to each other.
Kant couldn't help but laugh at himself: "Thinking too much. ”
He went to the Solid Stone Pass this time only to explore the way, and he had no intention of going deep into the interior of the Lion Principality.
Not even in the future.
As long as you find the agent that Kant himself has predetermined and leave everything to him, the interests of the Duchy of Lion have nothing to do with Kant himself, he is only responsible for the delivery, and does not get involved in the vortex that can eat people.
Kant certainly understood.
In fact, he is also testing the bottom line within the Lion Principality.
Use the salt trade and contact with the Solid Stone Pass to test what the nobles think of themselves after they chose to leave the Lion Castle and exile themselves to the Narun Desert, the guy who did not die and was lucky enough to obtain a natural salt mine.
Venture into the interior of the Lion Principality?
Kant wouldn't do it.
He's not stupid either.
Before leaving, Kant also arranged the already small government affairs of the sentry oasis.
Construction sites were inspected to check the deployment of troops.
After everything was safe, he was relieved to hand over the authority of the Sentry Oasis to Fatis.
Kant still believes in this Swadian knight and affirms his ability.
It's not that Kant was suspicious of the classes and generals recruited by the system.
Mainly because these people who come in the system have their own emotions and wisdom, and they all belong to living people, although they are absolutely loyal to Kant, but because of their different personal abilities, they must be arranged carefully.
For example, a careless guy will be held in a night sentry position in an important position.
For example, let the cowardly and incompetent warrior act as the vanguard of wartime, the most cutting-edge position.
Even let two people who have contradictions and secretly hate each other, work together on a certain task.
With such an arrangement, it's no wonder if you don't mess it up!
This has been fully reflected in the game, just like two generals whose personalities are not compatible, or who look at each other unpleasantly, even if they are forcibly twisted together, one of them will choose to leave the team within a few days.
This is Kant's concern.
Thankfully, the current soldiers have been upgraded in blood and fire, and they are all ruthless and tough standard warriors.
Fatis and Manid are also friends with similar personalities.
Kant was thus reassured.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do in the afternoon, Kant spent 300 dinars to recruit the 10 desert bandits of the week at the desert bandit camp, and arranged for the 5 more advanced Salander riders to lead them to familiarize themselves with the environment.
And the reward obtained, 10 dromedary, was also embodied by Kant.
These camels will be the main force of the salt trade in the future.
It is also the most important means of transportation for the sentry oasis to provide raw materials for transporting raw coarse salt from natural salt mines in the Naryn Desert and charcoal from the Sanwaya Mountains in the Naryn Desert.
The name of the Desert Ship is not for nothing.
Everything.
Just wait for the next day's departure.
