MTL - Lord Highlander-Chapter 1464 1451. Return to Moyun Ridge

  Chapter 1464 1451. Return to Moyun Ridge

  The news of the victory of the Constructed Knights of the West Route Army and the East Route Army at the Buruin River was like a blown dandelion, flying all over the city of Handanal.

  Many noble lords in the city heard that Commander Suldak defeated the evil ghost army three times in a row in just half a year.

   Not only the ghost army on Moyun Ridge, but also the ghost army in Naroda Canyon this time. These dazzling achievements can prove Commander Suldak's excellent commanding skills.

  So many nobles in Handanar City have some ideas...

   It is not that the noble lords do not have an army, they just cannot bear the defeat of the war.

Wanting to maintain the funding for a war is a big expense for many noble lords. Once they make a wrong bet, lose the battle, and the huge profits of the war fail to bring them any benefits, then they will have to spend the rest of their lives. Shrunk in the family territory.

   The nobles saw that Commander Suldak had completed three wars brilliantly, and many young nobles suddenly had some ideas in their hearts.

  They took their own weapons and equipment, horses, and a group of guards around them, and they left their homes and rushed to the forest farm camp.

   Throughout Handanal County, many nobles who wanted to make achievements on the battlefield ran out this time and went to the forest camp to try their luck...

  …

   In fact, Suldak has a plan to recruit new troops, but the combat power of these motley troops is beyond description, and the army assembled by the nobles is even more difficult to manage, and the distribution system of the spoils is also the group of nobles.

   But there is also a convenience, that is, the troops brought by these nobles will be responsible for their own supplies, that is to say, they prepare their own weapons and equipment, and carry their own dry food.

   Only accept Suldak's deployment during the battle, and if they think there is a possibility of failure, they can withdraw from the battlefield at any time.

   One word to describe it is 'outrageous'!

  Suldak has been receiving these nobles all day, and many young nobles are not even as good as Viscount Bartholomew Allenby.

  They strutted into the forest farm camp, looking like a general reviewing the army, raised their proud chins and pointed at the garrison here, and then began to imagine their various expectations for the next battle.

  At this moment, every nobleman seems to be imagining himself as a general, judging the future trend of this war.

Suldak had to admit that he didn't have that much thought. The only thing he was doing now was to stop the ghost warriors on Moyun Ridge to the north of Mount Gandahel and try to prevent them from entering The large meadow, in turn, threatens the city of Handanal.

"Moyun Ridge is a plateau surrounded by mountains. It used to be the gathering area of ​​the natives of the Warsaw plane, the Jiadarosmuka people. The evil spirits opened a door of evil spirits on Moyun Ridge and built a gate on it. The purpose of setting up the fortress was to contain the Bena Army in the northern part of Handanar County and prevent the Bena Army from advancing northward. They established a firm foothold on Moyun Ridge, completely killed the Gadaros Muka people, and occupied Moyun The evil spirits of the Ridge have caused irreversible damage to the ecology of Moyun Ridge..."

  In the command post, a noble lord pointed to the map on the wall and introduced Moyunling to Suldak.

   To be honest, he spoke very well. A lot of knowledge was something that Suldak had never understood, and there were even some grievances and grievances between the aboriginal tribes.

  Suldak stood in front of the map, looking at Moyunling seriously...

   Sending away the noble lord who knew this history, Suldak sat silently in front of the map for a long time.

Andrew didn't understand why Suldak endured the torture of this group of people all day long. Some people could entertain them, but most of the nobles were willing to visit Suldak because they wanted to get some benefits from here. .

  Every noble’s eyes are fixed on the black magic crystal that can be exchanged for merit...

  As long as these black magic crystals are taken to Handanal City, they can get a promotion in title.

   In order to encourage the noble lords to participate in the war of planes, His Majesty Charles promised that the nobles could be promoted to the title of knighthood as long as they obtained a certain amount of black magic crystals.

   Among the titles below the first-class earl, the number of black magic crystals has almost become a constant value.

  However, in order to be promoted to a Marquis, in addition to the Black Magic Crystal, one must also have a vast territory and reputation that matches one’s identity. It is not an easy task to be promoted to a Marquis.

  So, for Suldak, his title of nobility has reached a bottleneck.

  The West Route Army obtained so many black magic crystals that they could smash out several first-class earls in a row. Such affluent black magic crystals naturally attracted a large number of nobles from Handanal City.

  Everyone came to the forest farm camp with their subordinates. To put it bluntly, they hoped to be appreciated by Commander Suldak.

  Many "talented people" don't even think about what Suldak really needs. Anyway, they just hand over the visiting letter, and after the meeting, they start to explain their thoughts, propositions, etc.

   "Boss, I really don't understand what you can get by spending a day here entertaining them..."

  Andrew sat in the corner, sharpening the almost broken butcher's ax with a whetstone.

  Amidst the splash of sparks, there was a strong murderous aura in his eyes.

The last few battles have made this berserker's aura stronger and his soul more solidified. Every time Suldak sees Andrew, the image of the hideous face behind him can always appear in his mind. film.

  Suldak sighed and said to Andrew:

   "There will always be some people who come here, really for the sake of fighting. I have always believed in this, so I want to give everyone a chance, and at the same time I am looking forward to their arrival..."

  “Nowadays many things like to be linked to interests, and when people do a lot of things, they lack some faith in their hearts.”

   "Since this place already belongs to the fertile land of our Bena people, there must be someone willing to guard it. I am waiting for this group of people."

  After saying this, Suldak sat down on a wicker chair.

The room was a bit dark, and a guard had already walked in and lit two magic wall lamps on the wall, and brought a plate of dinner to Surdak, including fried meat, white bread, two plums and a bunch of grapes , the food looks quite rich.

  Andrew glanced at it, planning to ask the guards to bring back another portion from the dining hall.

   "It is said that many armies will hire some mercenary groups to participate in the battle before they are ready to go to war. Should we consider this?"

  Suldak rubbed his forehead.

Andrew asked this question because a large number of troops have gathered in this forest camp. With the West Route Army suffering such serious losses, if Suldak can make good use of these adventure groups, mercenary groups, and the private army of noble lords, he will It can allow the West Route Army to recuperate well for a period of time in the future.

   "That's why there are so many mercenary groups gathered outside. They are willing to wait here because they think I will hire them?" Suldak immediately figured out something.

  Andrew nodded and said, "That's about it."

  …

  The wooden door of the command post was pushed open from the outside, and Samira walked in from the outside. Before the wooden door could even be closed, she threw herself into Suldak's arms.

  The half-elf beauty buried her head in Suldak's arms, her crystal clear pointed ears were dyed a touch of rosy.

  Her body exudes a scent of daffodils, her body is light, and when she is held in Suldak's arms, her eyes are full of intoxication.

After Samira's petal-like lips were blocked by Suldak, Andrew felt that the command post was suddenly helpless, so he quickly grabbed the ax and slipped out along the wall, helping Suldak close the command post wooden door.

   Lip parting for a long time.

   "Why are you here? What's new at the Moyunling garrison camp?" Suldak asked in a low voice, holding Samira's slender waist.

   "The evil spirits on Moyun Ridge have not made any changes for the time being. This time I am here to deal with the daily affairs of the forest camp. Someone has submitted hundreds of applications to the garrison camp." Samira said casually.

  Suldak nodded.

  Subsequently, Samira mentioned that an aboriginal caravan came from the Moyunling Pass.

   "Indeed, some aborigines from the northern mountains of Moyunling came to the garrison camp..."

  Suldak did not expect that the aborigines from the northern mountains of Moyunling would come to the south so soon. Obviously, Suldak sent a friendly signal, and these aborigines wanted to quickly expand their strength.

   Perhaps it was the weapons and equipment that Suldak supported them some time ago, which gave them some sweetness.

   "Who did they come into contact with after they got here?" Suldak asked.

   "Businessman, they brought some Warcraft materials."

  In short, the aborigines of the aboriginal tribes came with the materials of Warcraft, and they also met the merchants in the free market here...

  Suldak couldn't tell whether this matter was good or bad.

  In this way, the supplies from the empire will continue to flow into the aboriginal tribes in the northern mountains.

   "It seems that they are preparing to trade with us. Since they are willing to take this step, it is not in vain for me to go to the north of Moyunling." Suldak said.

   After this group of aborigines became dependent on the supplies from the empire, perhaps certain supplies would be controlled.

   At that time, they will need to exchange some resources...

  Then the two talked about the affairs of the forest camp. Since Selina sent Samira over, there must be a solution.

   "The nobles who submitted the application, what are you going to do?" Suldak asked Samira.

  The half-elf beauty tied her shoulder-length hair, and then opened the window on the side of the command post, and the noisy voices from the camp immediately came in.

   "I'm going to be a reserve in the forest camp. Those who meet the combat conditions will be sent to the Moyunling battlefield. If they don't meet the combat conditions, they will be trained in the forest camp." Samira said.

  Suldak nodded.

"knew…"

  Samira is here, someone with enough weight to handle the affairs here.

  Suldak only stayed in the forest camp for one day, and then rushed to the military camp in Moyunling with the giant soldier ants and the Constructed Knights.

  …

  The forest road that was full of weeds has now been cleared out.

  There used to be many old tree roots on both sides of this forest road, but now it has been covered by a large number of bushes and vines. The trees on both sides of the forest road have grown back, completely covering the entire forest road.

  This forest road is more like a forest tunnel now...

  Giant soldier ants prefer to walk through this kind of shade.

   Along the way, you can see many caravan carriages carrying a large amount of supplies to the foot of Moyunling Mountain. One after another, the trucks are closely packed together, and the carriages are covered with tarpaulins.

  Probably because there are fewer evil spirits wandering around in the forest, and those little forest beasts popped up from nowhere.

  Many carriages were pulling cereals, and the aroma of these cereals attracted many small animals to wander around the forest road, and they were not even too afraid of people.

  This forest is slowly returning to its former vitality...

  Compared to those evil spirits, the human invaders are undoubtedly relatively mild.

  When the merchants looked at the West Route Army to construct the knight order, the worship in their eyes was also very clear. They had long known the news that the West Route Army had won...

  When the knights were resting in the forest road, some merchants would bravely run up and ask the knights to buy their spoils.

  Fist swords, goblin horns, fangs and dark hides, there is nothing they don't want to buy. As long as it's cheap enough, or makes them profitable.

   In fact, Suldak is not against this kind of transaction, but this kind of transaction needs to reflect 'fairness'.

  Be fair to warriors, but also to merchants.

  Since these warriors traveled thousands of miles to follow Suldak to the Warsaw plane, Suldak felt that he had an obligation to let them obtain some wealth.

   And these wealth can basically only be obtained from evil spirits, so this part of the benefits Suldak will not give up to the businessman anyway.

  Businessmen know that the soldiers of the West Route Army hold a lot of good goods in their hands, but the soldiers of the West Route Army have strict military discipline and rarely sell their spoils in private...

  Many merchants had the opportunity to contact these fighters on the forest road this time, only to find that they really knew nothing about the prices of these spoils in the market. However, if someone successfully traded, most of them gave some high prices at the purchase price.

  Many merchants couldn't understand at the beginning why these fighters (including those constructed knights) would bite the price so hard.

  It was later discovered that they actually had a price list of loot in their hands. This price list was made public in almost every team, and everyone was selling the loot in their hands according to the price on the price list.

   Along the way, many people sold their spoils.

   When they arrived at the Moyunling garrison camp, almost half of the spoils that the soldiers carried with them had already been sold.

Suldak finally saw how many adventure groups gathered on the frontline battlefield here. The temporary tents built on the entire hillside have spread into the mountains. Many adventure groups are coming in and out, surrounding a large free market, It seems that it is naturally extremely lively.

  Even Gullitum, who was following beside him, was a little dazed, looking at the tents all over the mountains and plains, he muttered to himself:

   "Why are there so many people gathered here all of a sudden?"
