The Extraordinary Earl

"Do you have any suggestions or additions for the team configuration this time?" the female knight asked, of course asking Old Sol, because Luther is just a brat in their eyes.

"The team configuration of your group is very reasonable. I have nothing to add." Old Sol shook his head decisively.

joke.

Just like an intermediate knight can fight at least ten junior knights, a high-level knight can fight at least ten intermediate knights.

The Sabretooth Tiger Mercenary Group is already equipped with two senior knights, plus thirty junior knights, and a junior wizard.

He really has nothing to say about this lineup.

"Okay, then please stay at our camp outside the city tonight and set off with the army early tomorrow morning." The female knight said straightforwardly.

"OK."

Old Sol nodded. Then the father and son left the office, went back to the restaurant, checked out the room, and then went with the female knight to the saber-toothed tiger mercenary group's camp outside the Golden City.

The female knight is still leading the team, and by the way, she is also one of the accompanying knights this time, a proper mid-level knight.

The next morning, before dawn, Pompeii and his son were woken up. After eating a rich breakfast, they rushed to Barton Territory with the Sabre-tooth Tiger mercenary group.

In addition to the knights, they were accompanied by dozens of guards responsible for logistics and ten carriages.

Riding at the front of the team was Old Sol and the Tomahawk Knight. The two were communicating while riding. The Tomahawk Knight was suddenly curious and said: "To destroy a group of thieves, you Pompeii are very generous. If the process goes well, Pompeii will The incident of Pompeii teaming up with the Sabretooth Tiger mercenary group to annihilate the Autumn Wind Bandits will sweep across Orange like a strong wind, but this incident does not seem to bring anything to Pompeii except prestige, so I am very curious as to why."

The Tomahawk Knight didn't know much about Pompeii, he only knew that he was a country knight, so he was still confused about Pompeii's handiwork.

Old Sol smiled and said: "Pompei established a town at the southern end of Baron Baron, deep in the deep forest. We need to show force, financial resources, show prestige, and attract residents to live here."

"A city deep in the forest? That is indeed very dangerous. If I were an ordinary free citizen, I would not live there."

The battle ax knight blinked, showing a look of surprise.

For a city, that makes sense. If the city is built, then taxes plus other income can slowly recover 100,000 gold coins.

"If the Sabretooth Tiger Knights receive any mission in the future, such as going to the forest to slay dragons, or capture monsters, and collect precious medicinal materials, I hope they can come to our Pompeii camp and serve as an outpost." Luther, who was one position behind, drove The war horse came up and inserted an advertisement.

As for a city, relying on self-sufficiency is always the lowest level. Flowing commerce and population are needed to bring prosperity.

If the Saber-Tooth Tiger Mercenary Group wants to go deep into the deep forest and use Pompeii as an outpost, it will bring consumption, such as food supplies, repairs of broken weapons, and other consumption.

After the battle, the mercenaries came to Pompeii Restaurant for a drink, and there was always food to accompany the drink.

All in all, food, clothing, housing and transportation bring only benefits and no disadvantages.

This advertisement is free, so if you don’t insert it, it will be for nothing.

The Tomahawk Knight and Old Thor were all dumbfounded. Why did the topic suddenly reach this point? It was a stroke of genius, but I had to admit that this wave of advertising breaks was impeccable.

"Hahaha, if there is a mission, I will arrange for the team to camp in Pompeii." The Tomahawk Knight laughed heartily and nodded in agreement.

This knight's shortcomings are that he is an alcoholic, impatient with official duties, and has a promiscuous relationship with his female knight assistant, but his advantages are also obvious.

Brave and good at fighting, extremely generous.

This is quite similar to Old Sol, so the two of them can talk about it.

This is a small episode in the journey.

After more than ten days of marching, the team arrived at Barton Territory. However, a group of people did not enter the city, but abandoned the ordinary soldiers, and dozens of knights traveled lightly to the Blackwater Mountains.

The so-called Blackwater Mountains are a small mountain range at the northern end of the Barton Territory. The mountains are short mountains that are very easy to climb, but they also form a natural place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

The three sides of the Blackwater Mountains are dense forests, which are more conducive to hiding checkpoints. If someone plans to attack the Blackwater Mountains, the checkpoint hidden in the forest will detect it and pass the message to the stronghold on the mountain.

To the north of the Blackwater Mountains is a river that runs from east to west. Once things go wrong, the Autumn Wind Bandits will choose to go down the river and escape here.

To the north of the river is the territory of another viscount.

All in all, this is an area entrenched in a second-hand area, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the Autumn Wind Bandits are very good at escaping.

So even though the thieves group has been here for more than ten years, Baron Barton can't do anything to the thieves group.

It seriously affected the commercial activities in the Barton Territory and caused considerable losses.

From this aspect, if Pompeii and his son succeeded in wiping out this group of thieves, it would also be good for Baron Barton.

Because they wanted to directly destroy this entrenched band of thieves, there was nothing much to say. When a group of people arrived at the edge of the forest to the south, they began to prepare for an attack.

"Everyone, check your body to see if there are any traces of the Sabre-Tooth Tiger Mercenary Group. Clean up all traces. Don't let them know that we are the Saber-Tooth Tiger Mercenary Group, otherwise they will escape before fighting."

said the battle-axe knight.

This is not bragging. As one of the largest mercenary groups in Orange, the Sabretooth Tiger Mercenary Group is feared by thieves.

And without markings, the other party won't know who they are.

The knights, including the Tomahawk Knight and the female knight, began to carefully examine the marks on their bodies. The knight of the battle ax said to Pompeii and his son: "Knight of Pompeii, please take your son to rest here."

"My son and I are both knights and can fight." Old Thor drew out his knight's sword with a firm attitude and glared at Luther.

Because he saw Luther wanting to retreat.

Of course Luther didn't want to participate in the battle. As a lord, and he spent money to hire a powerful mercenary group, he could just stay in the rear and enjoy the victory, so why bother to participate in the battle rashly.

Fighting hurts.

But Old Sol obviously wanted Luther to be brave and good at fighting, so he glared at him with a threatening look. Luther could only shrug his shoulders and planned to join the battle.

"Why are you so slow to react? You are just an intermediate knight, and your son is a junior knight. Whether you participate in the battle or not has no impact on the outcome. On the contrary, if you participate in the battle, we have to protect you, because if you lose in the battle Losing customers is a major credibility blow to our Sabretooth Tiger Knights."

One of the knights said in a very unhappy tone.
