726. Baron Goldin

 The military camp is very lively tonight.

There is a prison in the camp that is little better than a stable. It is now filled with mercenaries who have returned from detention.

Nearly all of these mercenaries were injured. Although they were all simply bandaged, they were still lying in the prison groaning.

Some slightly injured mercenaries leaned against the prison fence and watched the cavalry eating dinner in an orderly manner in the garrison camp.

Everyone was holding dinner plates in their hands and lined up to pass in front of several large iron pots. They seemed to be eating well.

The injured cavalry received treatment from Surdak first. These cavalry were fully armed before fighting the mercenaries, so they did not suffer too serious fatal injuries. The most serious one was that one cavalry had seven broken ribs.

Suldak was so busy that he didn't even eat dinner, treating these cavalrymen.

Many cavalry recovered almost immediately after being treated with the Holy Light Technique. Surdak also found that his Holy Light Technique seemed to be a little different, and seemed to be more powerful than before.

 Because of the existence of Surdak, the cavalry in the cavalry battalion are not afraid of being injured at all, so they fight more bravely than the soldiers of other teams.

As the priests and war priests of the Temple of Liberty withdrew from the battle order in the Green Empire, the price of healing potions in the Green Empire's magic market increased at least ten times overnight, and the prices of herbal medicines continued to rise. This resulted in

Many soldiers dare not be injured in battle.

 Without any treatment, serious injury equals death.

 …

In the garrison camp, the cavalrymen sat neatly at the long table, with wooden dinner plates in front of them, and everyone was eating dinner quietly.

The cavalry camp stipulates that no noise is allowed during meals. Everyone eats in silence with their heads lowered. After finishing the meal, they clean the plates and throw them into a steaming basin. These plates will be cleaned together.

There are almost no fruits here in Dodan Town, but there are large bushes on the hilly side that are rich in cranberries, so the cavalry can still get some fresh berries after their meals.

Every night, the cavalry would line up by the water tower wall to take a cold shower. In fact, the water in the water tower was still warm in the evening after being exposed to the sun for a day. The cavalry were all covered in smelly sweat after training all day.

At this time, everyone is lining up and taking a shower, laughing and joking. This is the most relaxing time of the day.

There are a lot of horses in the military camp. Every evening, a large number of horses are driven by the native herdsmen from outside the town and run into the stables.

 Under the setting sun, watching that kind of scene can easily make people excited.

At this time, the mercenaries who were imprisoned in the simple prison realized that they might have underestimated the true strength of this garrison. They seemed to be completely different from the cavalry battalion of Langdon's Legion.

Whether it is horses, various armaments, the sophistication of armor and weapons, or the high fighting will and optimistic attitude of the cavalry, they are all things that the previous cavalry battalion never had.

Suldak did not treat the mercenaries after treating the cavalry.

After washing the blood on his hands, he walked out of the cavalry dormitory. The chief cook in the military camp had already brought a dinner plate filled with stew and scones and was waiting at the door of the dormitory.

Had he not been worried about being scolded by Suldak, he would have even brought dinner into the dormitory.

Suldak took the plate and felt that he was also hungry.

At this time, the guard ran over and reported to him: "Mrs. Luna from the town hall, tax collector Batra, tailor shop owner, and bakery owner are all waiting in front of the small building..."

Suldak quickly put down the dinner plate in his hand and followed the guard towards the small building.

 …

After receiving the notice that the trading house was closed, the owner of the trading house, Baron Josh Golding, did not rush to the trading house immediately, nor did he go to the military camp. Instead, he asked the steward next to him about the regiment to which the cavalry battalion belonged.

and Suldak's background.

He was lying on a lounge chair by the manor's pool, with two blond beauties standing and rubbing his legs. The butler stood aside and said to Baron Golding:

"The news we received is that the Lutheran Army led by Marquis Lutheran, the main war faction in the Bena Province, came to Dodan Town this time to change defenses. However, the army that came to the Bailin plane was not the main force of the army. It was composed of large

Swordsman Chester is the deputy commander of the army and is responsible for the defense of the northern area of ​​Bailin plane."

“Currently, a coup has been launched in the Tarapagan area of ​​Bena Province. Marquis Luther went to the north of Tarpaulin to suppress the military coup. He is temporarily unable to manage the military and political affairs of the Bailin plane.”

"We have basically no news about Baron Suldak. The only thing we know is that his cavalry battalion should be the latest one to be formed and have a new designation. Therefore, we suspect that he should be temporarily transferred to the Luther Army.

The miscellaneous army came to the Bailin plane just to earn merit, but I don’t know why they came to Duodan Town..."

 The butler introduced some of the information he had learned to Baron Josh Golding in detail.

The main reason why Surdak was investigated was that Surdak drove away Mayor Marco of the town just after he took office, and used extremely tough methods to obtain the military power of the city defense brigade. In addition, the trading house also suspected that

The adventurous group that robbed the slave traders was collectively wiped out outside the town, which had a lot to do with the cavalry battalion.

 Just recently, the gate of the north city wall has not been opened, and the investigation on the trading bank has not been carried out yet.

Baron Josh Golding put down the exquisite porcelain cup in his hand, sat up from his chair, and looked thoughtfully at the sunset that was about to sink into the mountains in the distance. He suddenly found that he seemed to be ignoring this man in the garrison camp.

The commander.

"What exactly did Anthony do? The trading company's armed group hired nearly a hundred mercenaries. Although these mercenaries are not construct warriors, they at least have some magic pattern construct armor, and they all have a strength of level one or above.

Why can't even the ordinary cavalry in the cavalry battalion be defeated?" Baron Josh Golding asked with a frown.

The butler coughed slightly before saying: "Commander Surdak has three very powerful confidants. In addition to a construct warrior, there is also an ogre warrior and an archer.

Their identities are unknown, but almost all of them have a high level of strength."

Baron Josh Golding put down the teacup in his hand, pressed his forehead helplessly, and said, "It's impossible for just these three people to defeat a hundred of our mercenaries!"

 He waved his hand and signaled the two young maids to leave.

He stood up on the chair and stood by the pool and said: "Buckley used to brag to me all day long about how powerful the mercenaries in the mercenary guild were, but it doesn't seem to be that good now. I pay such a large commission every year.

, now it looks like they were all thrown into the river..."

 After saying that, he kicked a wicker chair into the pool.

There was a big splash in the swimming pool, which startled a group of resting birds on the feeding posts in the garden and flew up.

 Only the butler stood aside with a calm expression.

“What’s the news from Commander Suldak?” Baron Josh Golding asked again.

The steward immediately said: "Not yet, President Buckley of the mercenary union went to the garrison camp, as if he wanted to get the person back."

“It seems I have to go there myself!”

 Baron Josh Golding sighed and said.

 …

 Baron Josh Golding rode a carriage to the gate of the military camp and was stopped by the guard at the gate.

After the entourage stepped forward to inform Baron Josh Golding of his identity, he was still stopped outside the military camp by the guards. After waiting for a while, he was allowed to enter the military camp, but the magic caravan was not allowed to enter.

Baron Josh Golding stepped down from the magic caravan and walked into the military camp. The guards did not stop the ten followers around him.

When I walked into the military camp, I happened to see the cavalry in the military camp finishing their dinner. All the cavalry lined up to put their dinner plates into the hot water basin and threw their knives into another box. The atmosphere in the military camp was a bit serious. All the cavalry

When soldiers chat, their voices are kept to a minimum.

When passing by the playground, I saw the cavalry training ground planned on the playground. The archery range was very clean. The wooden figures and arrow targets were covered with scars. Baron Josh Golding's heart was filled with tears.

Some of it sank.

Although he does not have his own private army, it does not mean that he has no vision.

 It can be seen that this cavalry battalion usually receives a lot of daily training, and the training ground is very formal. Thinking that it was just such a group of cavalry that overturned the armed regiment that they had worked hard to form during the day.

Baron Josh Golding felt a little inexplicably irritable. He guessed that this meeting with Commander Suldak was destined to not be too pleasant.

The cavalry guard took him to the front of a small single-story building and signaled his ten followers to wait outside. Then he knocked on the door of the small building and led the owner of the business, Baron Josh Golding, into the living room of the small building.

.

 …

 Baron Josh Golding walked into the living room of the small building and found some people sitting on the sofa in the living room.

He walked to the living room, stood on the soft wool carpet, looked around, nodded slightly to the guests on the sofa, and sat alone on a sofa. The aristocratic temperament about him made him look different.

The two people sitting in the corner looked like shop owners. When they looked at Baron Josh Golding, they both showed fawning looks.

When Baron Josh Golding greeted them, they all stood up in a hurry.

Seeing that no one in particular was sitting in the living room, Baron Josh Golding felt a little more at ease.

 He took out a pipe, put it to his lips, turned to Mrs. Luna, smiled and said:

“Mrs. Luna, I heard that you have recently taken over the daily affairs of the town hall. I haven’t had time to congratulate you in the past few days.”

Although he said this, his eyes still showed no concern. From the bottom of his heart, he did not think highly of this old woman who was no longer young.

She can become Mayor Marco’s secretary, but she can’t let Mayor Marco lie on her bed.

Now that Mayor Marco has been detained in Wilkes City, she has lost her biggest supporter, and her physical assets have quietly slipped away with her youth a few years ago.

 She is now like a piece of sugarcane bagasse that has been drained of its sweet water, without any value.

Mrs. Luna quickly put on a smile, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes were clearly visible. She hurriedly said: "Baron Golding, I made you laugh! I am just temporarily managing the daily affairs of the Dodan Town Hall until the new mayor arrives.

Affairs."

Baron Josh Golding just said polite greetings, and then said to Tax Collector Batra:

“I heard that you were a little frightened a few days ago, but you seem to be recovering well now. I hope the mayor won’t be as bad as Marco!”

He was not even in a perfunctory mood towards Tax Collector Batra. He knew that there was a pair of eyes staring at his trading firm in the town hall every moment of every day.

But Baron Josh Golding doesn’t think this will have any impact on him, so just stare! And he can’t eat...

 In his eyes, Tax Collector Batra looked like a green bean fly. If he could slap him to death, he would never be polite.

 Now he could only endure the nausea in his throat and look at him sitting opposite him.

Baron Josh Golding finally said very cordially to President Buckley of the mercenary union next to him: "Originally, I wanted to invite you to come with me, but I didn't expect you to be one step ahead of me. I will find a way to bring this group of mercenaries together."

Fish out the soldiers..."

President Buckley had a wry smile on his face, nodded slightly and said, "I'm really causing trouble for you. I didn't expect them to be so bold and actually confront the local garrison. These people are usually lazy and don't even remember the empire."

Calendar, I think they should be detained in the military camp for a few more days and suffer."

At this time, Surdak walked out of the study holding a parchment account book. He was wearing a salamander leather armor and sat silently on the main seat in the living room.

Then he raised his head and said to President Buckley: "Are you Buckley, the president of the Mercenary Union?"

President Buckley of the Mercenary Union showed an embarrassed smile and said to Suldak:

"Commander Surdak, those mercenaries in the union have caused you trouble. I heard that they offended you at the door of the trading house in the morning. I think there must be some misunderstanding here. They all

They are a group of reckless men and a group of dead-headed people."

“Although you have made some contributions to Duodan Town, you have always been careless. They must not have recognized your identity!”

“Otherwise, I don’t think they will offend you no matter how brave they are!”

"In this regard, I also hope that they can learn some lessons. Our mercenary union has made some mistakes in management, and we will accept the punishment..."

Suldak did not expect that President Buckley of the Mercenary Union would take such a low stance. The words he originally prepared were useless, so he pondered for a moment before saying:

"Each mercenary can take it away after paying fifty silver coins. The military camp will not arrange dinner for them. If this happens again in the future, they will no longer be fined. The town will arrange for them to stay in Dodan.

You don’t have to come to me if they want to undergo labor reform in the town. If you want their sentences to be shorter, you have to ask someone who is familiar with the Green Empire’s calendar to defend them..."

President Buckley of the Mercenary Union opened his eyes wide and looked at Suldak blankly.

Suldak smiled "hehe", patted his shoulder and said to him: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand it now. Once these systems are established little by little, you will become familiar with them soon!"
