Dominate the Game of Thrones with Mount and Blade

Chapter 74 Mercenaries

King's Landing at night.

"Right here." Yule led Arthur to a technical courtyard.

"This Aungai and his Dornish companions are here."

Arthur nodded. These Dornishmen looked like Prince Oberon of the Red Viper.

As another legendary warrior in Westeros, the Red Viper has seamlessly transitioned from being the prince of Dorne, to being a mercenary of the Second Sons, to being a frequent visitor to various technical institutes.

This group of Dornishmen, apart from having no noble status, are very similar to their prince.

Yule led the way, and Arthur, who had changed into bright yellow silk clothes, followed him in.

There was no suspense in the group battle, and he earned another 20,000 gold dragons.

Arthur's confidence increased greatly, and he thought about recruiting more mercenaries in King's Landing to add some chips to his start in the War of the Five Kings.

Coincidentally, the tournament attracted many such mercenaries. Although some of them did not participate in the competition, they still came to King's Landing.

"Sir, I will arrange a tender one for you."

The old woman from the technical school came over to greet her.

Yule, who was wearing plate armor, and Arthur, who was wearing silk clothes, looked like a nobleman and a guard, so the old lady felt that her business was coming.

"No, we're looking for someone."

Arthur refused.

"Of course the person who comes here is a woman, let me arrange it!" The old lady refused to give up.

"I'm looking for a man." Arthur refused clearly, his tone a little tougher.

"Come here to find a man?" the old woman murmured to herself.

She couldn't understand the behavior of coming to Jiyuan to find a man, and she was shocked.

Yule led the way, and Arthur followed into a large room.

"My friends, where is M. Anguy?" cried the Lord of the Moulin Rouge.

"Do you have a problem with me? Andals."

An Gai, who had black hair and black eyes, sat up from his companion's arms and asked.

"I am a descendant of the First Men." Arthur corrected a small mistake on his part, and then made clear his purpose, "I want to hire you people to protect my family territory because I had a conflict with another noble. "

Naturally, Arthur could not explain that the War of the Five Kings was about to break out, and the conflict with Crowtree City was enough to be a legitimate reason.

An Gai and his companions laughed.

After laughing enough, Ange said seriously: "This afternoon, the Prime Minister sent someone to ask me if I wanted to join his escort, but I refused. Why do you think I will accept your invitation?"

After thinking about it, Arthur replied: "Because I came in person, and the Prime Minister just sent an irrelevant person."

"Is there any difference? Do you think you are more noble than the Prime Minister?" Angai asked.

Several other Dornishmen helped:

"I think you are not as strong as one of the Prime Minister's bodyguards!"

"Is your person more valuable than the Prime Minister?"

"Come on, we have to have fun all night long!"

Arthur was not angry at these people who were obviously his younger brothers. He just had to convince Ange.

"There is a story. In the very far east, there was a man named Liu Bei. In order to recruit a well-known counselor, he went there three times..."

He recounted the past three visits to the thatched cottage and finally concluded:

"The difference between me and the Prime Minister is not our dignity, but my sincerity."

"He sent a bodyguard here just to recruit you as his bodyguard, but I came here personally to recruit you as a partner, a brother who will live and die together, and share weal and woe."

"In terms of honor, your prince, the Red Viper, is the younger brother of the lord of Dorne, and the Prime Minister is not much more noble than him. Doesn't he do the same thing as you? Has he ever said that he is looking for Are you a guard?"

After Arthur finished speaking, he paused and let Angei figure out the reason.

If you want to recruit such a truly capable person under your command, you can't do it without some sincerity.

"Tell us in detail why you don't have good relations with the nobles next to you."

An Gai did not express his choice immediately, but raised another topic.

"It's like this. The heir to the earl of Crowtree City to the north of us pretended to be bandits... They killed three women, one of whom was pregnant with a child about to be born... My nephew Arthur was out of justice..."

Yule acted very cleverly and hurriedly told the reason for the recent conflict between his family and Crowtree City.

At the same time, several other Dornishmen also whispered to Ange.

Arthur, who had an excellent ear, understood that they were talking about beating Cleo and his cousin.

"You are a just and kind-hearted man." An Gai said after listening to these two stories.

He even used honorifics.

"I decided to take these brothers of mine to work as mercenaries for you for a while until Crowtree City no longer harasses your territory."

He made his final decision.

"Great, I'll pay you your normal wages."

[Angai and thirteen Dornish spearmen have joined your team]

A blue light curtain appeared at the right time, letting Arthur know that this group of people had sincerely joined.

After discussing where to meet, Arthur left with Yule.

Next, they have to find another mercenary group.

Blood troupe!

This group of people is much easier to fool.

Arthur met them in a very dirty inn.

Their leader, Wag Huot, was from Qohor, a tall man but with a lisp.

This person stammered his request:

"Twenty gold... gold dragons per person, one less... won't do."

"How many people do you have? If it's just the few people I have in front of me, twenty gold dragons per person won't do." Arthur asked back.

These people are criminals, oath breakers, and gangsters from the free cities. They are recruited just to do things that Arthur can't do, and to serve as cannon fodder when necessary. It won't work if the number is less.

A middle-aged mercenary who spoke faster replied: "Of course it's more than this, but the inn in the city is too expensive, so quite a lot of brothers live outside the city. If you really want a lot of people, we can recruit brothers wandering around the east coast of Westeros. If time permits, even Essos can come. The total number is at least more than 200."

"Yes, that's right." The captain Wager added.

Arthur was overjoyed.

"Then call them all, and each will be charged 20 gold dragons. The deposit for your mission can be paid tomorrow."

This group of mercenaries are ready-made warriors, with their own weapons and armor. Now that the war is about to start, it is more cost-effective than training soldiers by yourself.

Wag was also very happy, "My lord, I watched both of your games today. You will be a..."

The stuttering captain wanted to flatter Arthur, but he was stopped by his hand.

After leaving the address, Arthur and Jules left.

It was late at night, and they walked back to their residence.

Tomorrow, Jules will take Arthur to visit other free mercenaries. Although their number is small, they need to visit more times because they are all fighting alone.

And tonight, Arthur also wants to talk to his uncle Jules, who has maxed out his skills in finding people and objects, about another matter.

Dragon eggs!
