Chapter 19 Disaster Is Approaching! 【66】【Please Collect And Ask For Flowers】
[ps: This chapter is a bit late, sorry. 】
[ps: The picture above shows the heavy armored infantry of the Great Song Dynasty. The armor they wear is infantry armor. 】
Knight Lasso should have arrived with his troops in more than ten days, but because he was really worried about the food in Xieyue Town.
So he left the others behind and brought his followers and soldiers to Xieyue Town.
But he didn't find out until he came to the granary outside Xieyue Town.
Thirty soldiers he had deployed here had been killed.
The 300,000 catties of grain in the granary were also taken away.
The granary is only five miles away from Xieyue Town, and anyone who thinks about it with his ass knows who did it.
While Knight Lasso was furious, a greedy thought suddenly appeared in his heart.
If he finds someone to destroy Xieyue Town, will he be able to swallow the 300,000 catties of food all by himself! ?
When the time came, he told the earl that the grain was taken away by the nobles of Xieyue Town and sold, and then that Don Juan ran away with the money, so he could neither get the grain nor the money.
He is one of the most powerful nobles under the Earl of Bergenlas, the Earl can't do anything to him, at most he will be fined, but it is totally worth it!
In the past, the price of grain was very cheap, basically one copper coin could buy a catty, and the monthly salary of a worker in a generally wealthy town was only fifty or sixty copper coins.
But it's different in the wilderness now!
Because next year is the year of disaster, the war is about to start, and the nobles who have been operating in the wilderness for many years are buying food.
Now the price of food has been fired to four copper coins a catty!
If you are pressing the time, after winter, sell it when the disaster is approaching, and if there are still nobles who are short of food, let alone four copper coins per catty, even if it is ten copper coins, twenty They bought copper coins for a catty!
This is 300,000 catties of grain. If it is sold at the rate of ten copper coins per catty, then it will be three million copper coins by then.
Converted into gold coins, there are more than three hundred pieces!
My God, three hundred gold coins!
Lasso Knight was about to be stunned by the huge sum of money.
You must know that before Don Juan bought such a territory and became a baron, he only spent a hundred gold coins!
Immediately, Lasuo contacted a knight he was familiar with in a territory in the wilderness. Lasuo took out his savings over the years and invited him to fight with ten gold coins.
And promised him that after he won, he would let him plunder Xieyue Town, no matter how many people he killed.
Two very wealthy knights, plus their respective retinues, add up to more than twenty fully armed cavalry.
Moreover, that knight still has the territory of two villages. If the peasants are recruited to fight, they can recruit more than 500 peasants and soldiers!
This number has definitely exceeded the strength of Xieyue Town!
Not to mention that he has more than twenty cavalry!
The city wall of Xieyue Town is made of wood, so it can be easily captured.
Lasuo has even started to imagine the scene of selling the 300,000 catties of grain at a sky-high price of ten copper coins per catty after he captures Xieyue Town and before the arrival of the Year of the Catastrophe.
At that time, how many nobles who are short of food will be crying and clamoring to buy his batch of food!
Then you will get rich!
"Hana, how long will it take you to recruit people from your territory and prepare for war?"
Knight Lasso looked at his friend Hana and asked.
"About ten days."
Hana Road.
"Ten days, almost, we must resolve the battle as soon as possible, otherwise the Earl's team will come, and then you will have no chance to rob Xieyue Town."
Cableway.
"Don't worry, only one of them has a horse, and there are only 300 militiamen without any weapons or armor. We have more than 20 cavalry and 500 troops."
Hana is obviously extremely confident, he said casually.
After all, an aristocratic baron who has just arrived has only been here for a few days, and he is trying to confront them, the old aristocrats who have been operating here for an unknown number of years.
It is simply impatient to live.
"Well, at this time ten days later, we will gather here, and I have to call my followers."
Lasso nodded, and the two officially separated.
.........
The upstream river is 500 meters away from Xieyue Town.
The military camp of Xieyue Town was erected here.
At this moment, the recruits in the barracks were lined up neatly, with 300 people divided into three square formations.
At this moment, the recruits are obviously very excited.
Because, weapons are going to be issued for training today!
and....
A group of recruits are looking at the supervisory team over there with envious eyes.
At this moment, two recruits from the inspection squad are helping Ragnar put on the heavy armor.
The girdle on the chest, covering the shoulders, braids on the arm armor, the belly on both sides of the waist, the skirt armor on both sides of the legs, the falcon tail on the front crotch armor and the falcon tail on the back crotch armor, the hanging legs on the legs, Mud scales on the top of the feet.
Finally, there is the neck protector, which is then worn on the head with a pocket, and the visor is pulled down.
The whole person is wrapped in this set of heavy-duty armor, and the wind can't blow in!
The armor was originally metallic bright silver, but Don Juan used black dye made from squid ink sacs to dye it black.
The densely stacked black armor plates on the heavy armor on the body do not reflect the sunlight very much under the sunlight, and the black tassels on the head flutter in the wind.
Cooperating with Ragnar's height of 2.23 meters, just standing here like this, Ragnar gives people an extremely heavy sense of oppression! !
The whole person stands here like a humanoid monster covered in scales!
Just imagine, on the battlefield, there is such a black humanoid monster in full body armor, impenetrable by knives and impenetrable by spears, rushing forward, who would not be afraid?
"Ragnar, how are you feeling?"
Tang Juan is also wearing the same heavy-duty armor at the moment, except that there are some dragon-shaped embossed patterns on Tang Juan's heavy-duty armor, which shows the difference in their identities.
It also gives people an extremely terrifying sense of oppression.
"It feels a little heavy."
Ragnar took a breath and said.
"It's a bit heavy."
Don Juan also nodded. He was so powerful that he didn't feel much. Although Ragnar was tall, he was still a Common man.
Although after these days of eating and drinking, and after intensive training, Ragnar has become stronger (the bright silver rice produced from Minecraft has the obvious effect of strengthening the body, as mentioned before.)
But with such a weight of forty or fifty catties on the body, it is not very comfortable for anyone.
