Chapter 1532 1519. Transaction
Coffey took out a groundhog in the iron cage. At this moment, the little thing in the cage was screaming because of some tension.
This kind of groundhog has a docile temperament. If it is a young groundhog, it can be a pet with a little training.
The Moyunling highlands are rich in a kind of groundhog, which has a light yellow pattern on the back after adulthood, and this kind of groundhog is not as smelly as other gophers.
Signa wanted to buy one a long time ago, but unfortunately Selena never agreed.
This kind of marmot was almost extinct by the evil spirits on Moyunling. This time, Kofi also asked several friends from the adventure group to get this one.
After taking over the cage, Signa's big eyes were bent into crescents, and she took out a piece of whole-wheat bread from the bag at her waist, broke off a piece as big as a fist, and carefully put it into the cage. The soil dial in the cage The mouse was a little timid, maybe it was frightened, but it just shrank in a corner of the cage, not daring to get close to it.
"Thank you!" Signa said happily.
Then holding the cage, he elbowed Nika beside him, turned around and walked into the camp.
Nica nodded to Kofi at this time, and then hurriedly followed Signa into the barracks.
Coffey quickly waved to Signa, turned around and was about to leave the main entrance of the barracks.
But before Kofi walked ten steps away, he heard Signa's voice coming from the gate of the barracks:
"Be careful! Going to the Moyunling Highland to hunt evil spirits this time, it is best not to go too far. If you are really unlucky, then go north along the east side of the mountain and go as far as possible."
Coffey didn't expect Signa to prompt such a sentence, and he froze in place for a while.
He didn't even think about asking for any information. He just wanted to maintain this relationship. It will be useful in the future, after all, he is the little princess of the West Route Army.
Their adventure group has indeed made all preparations before departure. This time, Captain Hayes is going to go west along the North Senland Mountains in the middle of the highland. It is said that there are often a large number of evil spirits here. If you are lucky, you may have more gains.
Today's Hayes Adventure Group has grown to more than 200 people, including 57 outstanding demon hunters. Each member of the adventure group has a horse. The adventure group has a very large space for activities in the Moyunling Highlands.
The last time they hunted in the Moyunling Highlands, the most dangerous time was only more than 50 kilometers away from Horsens Canyon.
It was precisely because the last trip was very smooth that Captain Hayes decided that the adventure group should be more aggressive this time. Only in this way can they harvest more black magic crystals.
Kofi thought about this time. The group leader might still be discussing the travel route with the other captains in the group. Thinking of the reminder given to him by Signa, he didn't dare to delay at all, and ran back to the Hayes Adventure Group in one breath. Dak Valley residence, reported the news to Captain Hayes.
Originally, Captain Hayes was a little hesitant about the course of action. After hearing the information from Kofi, he immediately revised the course of action overnight.
…
Dawn had just dawned, and the morning fog in the valley hadn’t dissipated yet, and the horns for morning exercises sounded in the barracks.
This made the reinforcement soldiers who just arrived at the valley garrison yesterday very uncomfortable. They don't have the habit of running and doing exercises in the morning.
Many reinforcement soldiers wanted to curl up in their sleeping bags and get back to sleep, when they heard the sound of orderly footsteps outside, 'puff puff puff', and even the ground was shaking.
These heavy armored infantry soldiers are fully armed when they go out, and when they run, the sound of armor rubbing is particularly harsh.
There was even a sharp whistle 'beep beep' sounded, and then a group of heavy armored infantry soldiers shouted in unison: "One, two, three, four..."
This kind of morning exercise has long been taken for granted by the people in Dake Valley. Even many businessmen took the opportunity to call out their servants. The soldiers in the barracks are all up and doing morning exercises. There is no reason for you to continue to sleep in.
Groups of sleepy-eyed reinforcement infantry soldiers climbed out of the tents and stood in the camp with only their shirts on. They looked curiously at the heavily armored infantry soldiers of the West Route Army, who were wearing heavy armor and carrying heavy backpacks, surrounding the camp. They kept running laps, and then sat in a row on the side of the runway, talking and laughing while watching the show.
Someone even fetched a basin of water from the sink, and after washing their face, carefully shaved their sideburns with a dagger...
"Aren't they stupid for getting up and running so early..." The voice that spoke was not loud, but it was definitely not too low.
Although he didn't speak directly to the infantry soldiers of the West Route Army, he was extremely aggressive.
The infantry phalanx of the West Route Army passing by immediately experienced some fluctuations, and some running soldiers lost their pace because of this.
"Pay attention to the running rhythm, do you still want to have breakfast! Don't implicate everyone and be punished together!" The squad leader of the infantry phalanx shouted in a hoarse voice.
The chaotic sounds in the infantry phalanx disappeared immediately, and groups passed by the runway on the edge of the camp.
Seeing that no one in the infantry phalanx of the West Route Army dared to stand up and speak out and fight back, the infantry soldiers of the reinforcements probably felt that their dreams had been disturbed, and the taunts became louder.
"Probably because they don't have horses for transportation!"
"Really, I really didn't see where their stables are."
"The price of a high-quality ancient Bolai horse in the market is at least 20 gold coins. I guess their lords can't spend that much money to buy horses."
As soon as this sentence was uttered, the infantry soldiers in the phalanx all looked in the direction of the sound, but they didn't stop because of it...
Feeling that the atmosphere at the scene was a little tense, someone immediately comforted him: "Don't speak so loudly when you are joking, be careful not to be heard by others."
The infantry soldiers of the reinforcements stood aside and watched for a while, and found that they could only eat ashes standing here, and the people who lost interest soon dispersed.
After the morning jog, the cafeteria is open for breakfast.
There are a total of fifteen dining halls in the barracks of the West Route Army, but even so, it is impossible to provide breakfast to 140,000 infantry soldiers at the same time. All infantry regiments here have a fixed time to eat in the dining halls. The Corps has a window for receiving meals, and there is only 20 minutes for receiving meals, which is just enough to line up to get the breakfast out.
In a period of time, almost all the same infantry regiment lined up at the same window to receive meals.
This made the dining hall look very orderly. The infantry soldiers lined up neatly, and almost no one whispered to each other.
Those who have received the meal can eat at the long row of tables outside the dining hall. Of course, some people choose to stand in front of the merit redemption list with porridge. Let's see what new rewards are on the merit redemption list.
Due to the continuous expansion of the number of the West Route Army, and the Constructed Knights and Ant Cavalry have just returned to the camp with a lot of merit, the merit exchange list has been updating rewards almost every day recently.
As the dining hall became lively, the infantry soldiers of the reinforcements were also hungry.
In the past, these lords made their own fires to cook. Usually, a small team would set up a simple earthen stove, and then hang up a small black lacquered cooking pot to cook porridge or boil water with dry wheat cakes. eat together.
Because the lord army in the form of an alliance goes out, the materials and supplies are the responsibility of the lords, so each infantry soldier brings his own rations, and even the weapons, armor, and horses are owned by the lords, and the spoils obtained on the battlefield It is also the lord's army that takes the lead, which is completely different from that of the West Route Army.
The infantry soldiers of these reinforcements saw that there was a large dining hall in the barracks, and those infantry soldiers of the West Route Army who had just finished their morning exercises all lined up to have breakfast, so they began to discuss:
"It seems that dinner is ready, should we go too..."
"Didn't you see that they went to eat in batches? Should we ask the order of our group's meals..."
Everyone started to talk and discuss. At this time, some captains got up from the tent, and everyone encouraged the captains in the regiment to ask.
They didn't plan to participate in the morning exercise, but they didn't want to be left behind when eating.
The captains of the various infantry regiments beat out the door of the nearest big dining hall, and began to ask the oatmeal cook when it was their turn to eat. The news they got made the captains a little unacceptable.
"No…?"
A captain of the Second Infantry Regiment of Lord Nelson's Army asked in surprise, "We had a sumptuous dinner with you last night!"
The cook impatiently pointed to a person in charge at the entrance of the dining hall, signaling to ask there. He is not responsible for explaining these things.
Several captains ran to inquire, and the chief of the dining hall replied: "Yesterday was the welcome ceremony, and your supplies were allocated by Handanal City alone, so from today onwards, you will be responsible for your daily supplies. food…"
"...Unless your lord reaches an agreement with our West Route Army commander, Lord Suldak, and we provide you with breakfast, your infantry soldiers can eat with us!"
A group of captains were sent out by the officer in charge with a few words, and then reported to the commanders of the infantry regiments, and the matter was then passed on to Marquis Valentine Heller.
Unexpectedly, the stubborn Marquis Heller had no intention of negotiating with Suldak. He waved his hand and ordered: "Each infantry regiment builds their own earthen stoves and solves the meal problem by themselves!"
In fact, these infantry regiments have always come here like this, but there is no harm if there is no comparison. Why can they have a hot morning after training, and my own infantry regiment wakes up and has to pick up firewood. Cook porridge, if you want to have breakfast like this, I'm afraid it will be noon...
Immediately, some infantry fighters began to complain in private.
…
A courier led the horse and left the valley before the morning fog cleared. He had a dispatch order from the Marquis of Heller in his arms.
The rest of the reinforcements stationed at the foot of Moyunling Mountain will arrive at the camp in the Dak Valley within half a month. There are currently 40,000 heavy armored infantry soldiers on standby in the fortress at the foot of the mountain. Marquis Heller intends to send All hoplites were mobilized to the Dak Valley.
It is estimated that when this side is ready, there should be news from Marquis Jeffrey, who constructed the Swordsman Corps, that the army will immediately rush to the Moyunling Highlands and begin to occupy a large area of territory.
During this period, the forage needed by the tens of thousands of war horses in the valley will be continuously supplied from the large meadow by the logistics group.
Although the long supply line has brought a heavy burden to the lords, this is the end of the matter, and the noble lords of Handanar County gritted their teeth and persisted.
Last autumn, the Duke of Newman dispatched 200,000 reinforcements from Bena province for the last time. The lords in Handanal city did not say that they would put their own lord army on the battlefield, but now they are scrambling Send troops.
It is to be able to enter the Moyunling Highland in advance to occupy the territory under the leadership of Marquis Heller.
That's right!
The heavy armored infantry regiment of the reinforcements entered the Moyunling Highlands just to occupy some unoccupied territories. As for attacking the ghost camp, the lords in Handanal City did not have this idea...
Of course Suldak knew about these situations.
He stood on the city wall and watched the rising sun, and the morning fog in the entire valley began to dissipate quickly.
The half-elf archer was holding a sky-strike bow and connected with Jiu-Jitsu at the top of the city. Suldak felt that she was the most beautiful when she was wearing the salamander leather armor. Obviously, after becoming a second-rank powerhouse, Samira was also looking for a way to break through. road.
At this time, Marquis Waters Caesar walked up the stone steps.
The Marquis came before him, and immediately said to Suldak straight to the point:
"Master Earl Suldak, the lords of Handanar County are willing to take out gold coins to buy the Black Magic Crystal. This time, it can be regarded as entrusting me to take full responsibility for talking with you. No matter what the current situation is, we can actually sit down Come down and make a deal"
Suldak looked at Marquis Caesar, turned around and leaned on the wall with both hands and said:
"Are you talking about a deal? Okay! Unidentified magic spar is 20 gold coins. You can negotiate as much as you want. The larger the amount, the more expensive the unit price. If the quantity you buy is too small, please go to the black market in Handanal County. Buy."
"Now the adventure group can also buy the Black Magic Crystal, and I don't want to repeat the specific price."
"Why does the more you buy, the higher the price?" Marquis Nishizawa asked puzzled.
Suldak replied with a smile:
"There are only so many achievements, which means that there are only so many opportunities for promotion. This is Handanar County. If you want to buy a black magic crystal, you can still buy it. You also know that I am from Tarapagan in the Bena province. In this small place, there are a lot of noble barons full of gold in our cellars. Everyone needs the black magic crystal. Now there is a thick stack of orders sent to me. You know, everyone is in a noble In the circle, many things are not easy to refuse."
"I only have so many unidentified black magic crystals in my hand. Whoever gets more will inevitably get less."
"So the more you buy in a single batch, the higher the unit price..."
