"At least two of my guards will be sent to me. No, four will be sent back to me." Roang felt a little sad when he made this request. He was obviously a baron of the Nott family, so why did he have to ask Zalan about the matter?
Ask for instructions?
No, when he gets to Darauma, he will have to change the garrison captain no matter what. He still has this right.
Luo Ang secretly felt cruel in his heart. He had had enough, the feeling of being ridden by his own knight.
"No problem. Even if the Baron doesn't bring it up, I will do it. After all, the retreat is different from the castle." Zalanda agreed without hesitation, "In that case, let's get started!"
Zalanda acted resolutely as always. After finalizing the agreement with Roang, he immediately gathered the personnel except for the rotating defense personnel in front of the small square in Northenburg.
Zalanda turned sideways and said to Luo Ang, who was sitting on the rostrum: "Lord Baron, do you really not want to say anything to the people?"
Luo Ang stretched his neck and looked down. He saw people sitting next to each other, their heads crowded and buzzing. He was beating a drum in his heart. He waved his hands distractedly and said: "Come on, come on, anyway.
it's the same."
Although Roang has now inherited the baronship of the Nott family and is respectfully called lord or lord by his neighbors, his actual age is only two years older than Gavin.
Their father, Old Baron Tessen, was at best a strong man who had stepped into the extraordinary world, but at worst, he was just a rough warrior with a rather average ability to manage the territory. He used to rely on Zalanda's father, and later relied on Zalanda.
.
The old baron basically treated Roan and Gavin as free rein. Gavin's situation was a bit special. He had been following Zalanda and learned something. Roan had always been treated like a pig by Oster, and he had no knowledge or skills.
, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, he is proficient in everything, and he has no other skills.
They originally thought they could rely on Tessen for decades, but who would have thought that the old baron suddenly had a brain attack last year, organized an elite force, and personally went to wipe out the monster tribes traveling in the mountains, and then never returned.
Not even the messenger who delivered the message came back, and the high-level priest who was hired at a high price had no response at all when he cast the full resurrection spell. He didn't know whether Baron Tessen and the others had encountered misfortune, or it was too late. Their souls had already been judged and reincarnated.
went.
In this way, Roang was pushed to the shelf. He could only rely on Zalanda for everything big and small. He showed his face no more than ten times in front of the people. It is no wonder that the people of the Nott family only knew Zalanda.
Da*star Layington, but not Rohan Nott.
"People of Nott, this is the most dangerous time in the history of Fort Nott. We must work together to overcome the difficulties. The kind and great guardian of Nott, Mr. Roan Nott, has promised
Open the ancestral equipment warehouse and loan the weapons and equipment inside to all the people in the territory to help us tide over the difficulties together. Let us thank Lord Nott..."
The breeze gently blew Zalanda's waist-length fiery red hair, which complemented the fiery red cloak she wore. The afterglow of the sun fell on her beautiful face, reflecting a hint of strength.
From beginning to end, she did not scream at the top of her lungs, but her voice was full of energy, her enunciation was clear, and her rhythm was relaxed enough to spread throughout most of Nott Castle, allowing most people to hear her clearly.
Every brief pause would trigger a wave of cheers, one wave after another.
At this moment, Gavin finally understood why the people of Tethyr in later generations supported Zalanda so much and affectionately called her the people's Zalanda. Not only because she regarded everyone as her relatives and people, but also because she regarded everyone as her own relatives and people.
Because she had enough abilities, she easily used the Nott family's weapons and equipment arsenal to open up this matter and mobilize the morale of the people.
The process of distributing equipment was busy but not chaotic. The Nott militiamen under Zalanda showed organization and discipline that were beyond the ordinary regular army.
Gavin was not surprised by this. Although he was not known as the Nott Militia, he was actually a militiaman and had trained with them for eight years.
What was originally a matter of course, after comparing the experiences of later generations, it was discovered that Zalanda and his daughter did have their own way of training soldiers. Zalanda in particular was famous for her self-discipline and a training madman. Once the militiamen were training, she would definitely join them.
, live together, and train together, after more than ten years of this, it is difficult to come up with good soldiers.
Now with the equipment of the Nott family, these young people have only one shortcoming - a lot of battlefield fighting experience.
Once this is completed, Nott's militia will transform into Nott's elite soldiers, and will become Zalanda's initial team.
"What are you doing?" When Zalanda came back to her senses from all the busyness, she realized that Gavin had been following her butt, looking around and groping around, and actually made a suit of armor, but how?
Look, they are all a bit nondescript.
The equipment on his body is basically a pair of studded leather armor, and a layer of chain-link shirt on the outside. Both pieces are light armor, but when worn together, they become medium armor.
The left hand wears a pair of elbow-length iron gloves, but the palm is missing. The top is a thin leather glove, holding a small buckler. The right hand is the simplest leather glove, wearing a pair of spiked knee pads, and a pair of
Bladed boots that clearly conceal a dagger.
A one-handed sword is tied on the back with a sling, at least one dagger and one-handed ax are stuck on the waist, a one-handed crossbow hangs on the right waist, and a dwarf style with a Lantan island on the left waist.
firing fire system.
There are shoulder straps tied to the chest, and a combat medicine belt tied around the waist. The bags inside are bulging, obviously filled with small things.
When Zalanda looked at him, he was trying hard to put a blouse on himself.
"Arm yourself." Gavin said matter-of-factly, "When we retreat, the fighting is likely to become very frequent, and the eldest sister will be unable to do anything. I can only take care of myself, and maybe I can provide some help to the eldest sister. Don't
Forgot, I’m also a member of Nott’s militia.”
"Substitute! I didn't remember to approve your formal joining." Zalanda corrected seriously, but did not let Gavin take off his equipment.
Gavin was indeed right. Once she embarked on the retreat, she wouldn't be able to focus too much on him. Most of the time, he had to protect himself.
Not only Gavin was doing this, Roang, along with Oster and the four personal guards who had just been sent back, were also rummaging through boxes and cabinets to equip themselves with the best parts of Nott's equipment arsenal.
.
This is their right, and Zalanda can't say anything.
Fortunately, the Nott family has been inherited for hundreds of years and has indeed accumulated a lot of wealth. There may not be many magic equipment, but there are still many sophisticated equipment, and some of them are even made by dwarves.
Not to mention equipping the entire Nott militia, even the civilians were given several pieces of armor and self-defense weapons, especially spears and crossbows, which Zalanda valued the most.
Give priority to allocating them all, and many women and children have also received a handful. In troubled times, it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on anything.
With these crossbows and the car formation, they can still provide a lot of help, even if they shoot randomly, it doesn't matter, because now the Nott militia has at least one pair of scale armor, including fifteen pieces of half-plate armor.
Five pairs of full-body plate armor - Luo Ang and the others took away the other five pairs of full-body plate armor.
In Zalanda's view, it was enough. Two ten-man heavy infantry teams were absolutely as powerful as weapons against the poorly equipped monsters and rebels outside.
