Chapter 16: Mysterious Merchant
"I didn't expect that the Hull knight would have the courage to openly disobey his orders without even giving any explanation." At this time, the old Cole village chief, who was also close to the heater in the corner, kept rubbing his hands together and said.
"Obviously the wings are hardened. When the old baron was still there, he was a little disobedient. This time, the young Baron Leo took over as the lord of the Archimonde baron, and he was naturally more arrogant and domineering. There are also people supporting me." Simon ruthlessly tore off a piece of black bread and stuffed it into his mouth, took a sip of the thick soup, and said, "But if nothing else, this heater from Lord Baron is still very practical.
It seems that this is a benevolent nobleman. In today's Fierce Lion Realm Kingdom, there are not many such benevolent lords. "
"Alas, according to my grandfather's description, at that time, the nobles still attached great importance to the survival of the commoners.
But today's Lion Kingdom, which has inherited most of the territory and heritage of the Pande Kingdom, is why they despise the survival of the commoners. "Old Cole Village Chief couldn't help shaking his head slightly, "Compared to the Raven Kingdom and other countries in the north, our Lion Realm is really..."
"That's because the civilians in our lions are too weak, and the nobles are too powerful, so the status of the nobles is more and more respected in our lions. Correspondingly, it is naturally the status of civilians. more and more decline.
I never thought that our Baron Leo would be so sad for the commoners. "Simon said, taking another bite of the brown bread. "On this basis, I am optimistic about him." "
…
On the grand banquet, there were all kinds of delicacies, such as browned and crispy roast chicken, and several roast lambs flowing with delicious juice.
At this moment, a burly and burly man was gnawing on a huge leg of lamb. Hearing the report of the attendant on the side, he also said loudly, "That little brat has indeed sent troops, hum, I want him to understand that this baron It's not all about him."
Seeing this scene, the two middle-aged men dressed as businessmen looked at each other with a bit of bitterness, "Knight Hull still speaks cautiously, Baron Leo is also your monarch anyway, and these words spread out. , it's not a small matter, you'd better..."
"I know, I know." The Hull knight also scratched his beard impatiently and shouted, "Why are you so timid? I know that behind you..."
"Shut up!" Seeing this scene, the two of them also shouted in unison, and the atmosphere became silent.
Even the original Hull knight was stunned. The huge roasted lamb shank stopped by his mouth, and the oil and water kept dripping down, soiling his clothes.
"Knight Hull, I hope you can understand that we don't represent anyone, it's just that we don't understand your situation and want to help you, and there's no one behind you," one of them snapped, "if you think we're instructed by someone, Then there is nothing to say, we just leave."
"Don't, don't, two, it's me who said the wrong thing," Knight Hull left his seat directly and hugged the two of them, "You two good brothers, I drank too much just now, and I said the wrong thing. You know, you just can't see Leo's arrogance."
"Hmph," the two hummed lightly, indicating their dissatisfaction.
"Two brothers, you promised the manpower, but is it almost time?
I estimate that after Leo rectifies the army, he will soon be able to arrive at my Hull manor. Although he is a yellow-haired child, after all, he is a newborn calf and is the lord of the entire Archimonde Baron. , I am bound to be in a hurry. "Hell Knight said with a smirk.
"Knight Hull, you can rest assured," the two businessmen looked at each other, with friendly smiles on their faces again, "We have 30 caravan guards, 12 elite militiamen from the fierce lion realm, and eight The bounty hunter and five mercenary infantrymen are coming soon.
Oh, by the way, I have a temporary intention to help seven extra well-known fighters, they are all my treasures. "
Fierce Lion Realm infantry, not everyone can train, only Fierce Lion Realm nobles can be qualified to train, of course there are many of them secretly, but if you want to put it on the face, once the mind is open, it can be troublesome Not small!
"Haha, my brother is really loyal," Knight Hull patted the businessman's shoulder heavily, and the large amount of oil stained the businessman's silk shirt, which made the businessman feel distressed for a while.
"Okay, we have almost eaten, so we will go back to rest first," one of the businessmen also said, "Isn't the room of the Hull Knight still cleaned up for us?"
"Of course not," Knight Commander Hull smiled. "Come on, take the two distinguished guests to rest."
The two businessmen, after returning to the room with the attendant, carefully closed the doors and windows, and then looked at each other, "What do you think, Mutter?"
"This knight of Hull has some brains, but at best he is a smart man among reckless husbands. I don't like him if I count on him." If this person is in the Great River City, it will definitely make countless people look at him. The famous big businessman Mutter, the controller of Mutter Chamber of Commerce.
"Is it such an exaggeration?" On the one side is obviously another big businessman in the Great River City who is in the limelight.
Hearing what Mutter said, he raised his eyebrows slightly, tore off the fake beard on his face, and said in disbelief, "We have absolutely a lot of strength to support this Hull knight.
He himself is restless. There are nearly ten elite militiamen in the fierce lion realm under his command, plus more than ten militiamen. With our cooperation, ordinary baronies can't resist, let alone such a long-standing weak barony?
I know that they have earned a lot of wealth recently, but it takes time to change wealth into strength. "
"Didn't you read the news? Then Baron Leo has been taking refugees in a big way recently. He is definitely a lord with lofty aspirations. Even though he just received the title, the strength of his subordinates has also grown.
Besides, among the people we support, that is, a few bounty hunters and mercenary infantry, you know better than me about the level of caravan escorts. "Mutter shook his head and said, "Forget it, no matter what, let's evacuate first, it's not safe here after all. "
"Yeah," Gates nodded, also agreeing, and with the moonlight, he just disappeared into Hull Manor.
"What! You said they left?" Knight Hull heard the report from the attendant today, UU reading www. uukanshu.com was also shocked, "Did they go back on their words? What can I do about this!"
After all, the Archimonde family is the master of the baronial land, and their prestige is still here. It is extremely taboo for the Hull knights to act like this. Even the reputation of success is stinky, but this is the Baron Archimonde after all. Leader, as long as Leo can eat and live, there will be no other nobles to meddle in their own affairs and uphold justice.
However, on the premise that his Hull Knights can defeat Leo, if the other party's support hadn't arrived, he really felt a little guilty. During this period of time, Leo's reputation spread very fast.
But fortunately, a large number of teams in the distance raised a lot of dust, and the leading caravan guard knew his intentions, which still made the Hull Knights feel relieved, and secretly muttered in his heart, those two may really be true Just have something to leave?
But why did you leave so hastily without leaving a letter?
He has verified the identity of the opponent, and it is no problem. It is indeed the people from the Mutter Chamber of Commerce and Gatsbo. These new teams can also be trusted. With such a terrifying strength, the opponent will not throw them at will?
Of course, the Hull knight naturally didn't know that the two businessmen he saw were not the competent generals of the merchants, but were clearly the two most famous merchants in the Great River City, Mutter and Gaisbu!
At this time, the Hull knights were also extremely excited to set up defenses everywhere, and then commanded their own team and the new soldiers together, watching the large group of people and the horse team of more than thirty people. At that time, the Hull Knight also felt a little bit of scolding Fang Qiu in his heart.
At this time, he even looked forward to the arrival of Leo, so that he could beat him to the ground, and see if he would dare to go wild on himself in the future!
