Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 384: .Rugged dirt road

Going out of the Jianshi Pass and heading towards the southwest, when you see the sword-like peak of Death Penalty Mountain, you will head towards the west, and you will reach Avilesburg in less than a day.

This is the experience of businessmen in the Principality of the Lions.

Often similar routes, the merchants will not easily tell others, this is the secret of the caravan.

It was only when a villain noble cared a scimitar on the neck of those merchants that he didn't care, and then easily obtained a specific route and got the secret of these caravans.

The caravan routes are all over the Principality of the Lions, so proper business routes are needed.

It's still the kind that has been inspected in the field.

It is more refined than the official map of the Principality of the Lions, that is, the territory maps collected in the Lions Fortress, especially in certain commercial areas or near areas with special products. The merchants’ business maps are more accurate in details.

As for Avilesburg, this important military town in the east, it is naturally included.

All the way to the west.

The dirt road that was simply trampled was very rugged.

In other words, the Principality of the Lions does not have the habit of repairing roads. These so-called roads are all solid roads that people have been riding for a long time. No one really repairs them. The ruggedness is also inevitable.

This is a deliberate act to prevent the enemy from marching.

The road can speed up the progress.

For example, on the edge of the Sanwaya Mountains, from the "Aaron" city to the Yamaguchi station, the stone paving road built by Kant was paved with small pieces of stone, strong and smooth.

Such paved roads can provide travel progress several times higher than ordinary mountain roads.

It was originally close to the travel time of the whole day.

Relying on this paving stone road, it can be reached within half a day, which is very convenient and fast.

This is conducive to improving the level of trade. After all, caravans, pack horses, camels and other caravans are full of goods and can walk on the paved roads, which is much stronger than the rugged mountain roads, or even no roads.

Speeding up the feasible schedule is convenient and troublesome.

Especially in the military role.

Since the caravan can go fast, the army can naturally.

And it can make rapid advances along well-built roads, or even directly reach its destination for deployment.

This is true for your own forces, and the same is true for enemy forces. The roads have already been built, and anyone can use them, as is the enemy.

In particular, the Principality of the Lions also has the enemy of the Silver Plate Kingdom.

Naturally, building roads does not work.

The Principality of the Lions, dominated by cavalry, does not need to worry about the problem of the buildup of troops. The four-hoofed horses can move faster than the two-legged ones, even if there is no road, they can move faster.

The Kingdom of Silver Plates is different.

The arms of this kingdom are diverse. Although there are cavalry, they are also dominated by infantry.

The Knights are the main force, but the elite infantry are also the main force. Often in the field, the Knights of the Principality of the Lions have not defeated the Knights of the Silver Plate Kingdom. Their own troops, the infantry used to maintain the front, have been defeated.

This is also the key reason for the fiasco on the south bank of the Resiston River ten years ago.

It's just to the North Shore.

Taking advantage of the forces of the Silver Plate Kingdom, and the Viscount Gibran of Avilesburg, desperately dragged the main Knights of the Silver Plate Kingdom, and because Baron Dylan betrayed the Silver Plate Kingdom, provided false information. .

This resulted in the victory over the north bank of the Ristniston River and counterattack on the south bank to recapture the two lost castles.

Barely maintained the decentness of the male lion.

therefore.

The Principality of the Lions is even less concerned about road construction.

Although it affects domestic trade, there is the well-known trading river such as the Resiston River. Even if the 6-way trade declines, it can be accepted. The profit brought by the river trade is not low!

Zema trudged on the rough dirt road, and it took a long time to see a caravan.

Are extremely vigilant.

More than a dozen carriages, more than fifty hands holding nail sticks.

There are more than a dozen cavalry in leather armour, armed with spears and long swords. Although they seem nondescript, they are between mercenaries and regular soldiers, but their movements are very simple and neat, and they are very good caravan guards.

The law and order situation of the eastern county is slightly better, and there are no large-scale bandit gangs.

But see Kant these cavalry.

One by one was horrified.

Especially the elite who swept through the desert robbers are very aggressive, very fierce, and their heart beats are accelerated. If it was not Kant, they directly passed the horse and did not mean to stay. Almost all of them took the lead in counterattack!

But even if they fight back, there is no chance of victory, Kant's number advantage is here.

5oo famous desert robber rampant.

This level is considered strong in the bandit group or the mercenary.

After all, these are all cavalry, not infantry, but they can also flee horses, but also have spears, scimitars, short javelins, and iron armor.

Ordinarily wealthy little landlords can only get together this equipment.

No cavalry can be anyone.

Breeding war horses alone is a waste of money, followed by equipment.

Today, Kant’s cavalry team can be used as the main force in the mercenaries. After all, ordinary mercenaries do not have the level of knight servants. The previous storm wind mercenary group was composed of knight servants and knights. There are also 2 big knights, which are really special cases.

Everyone knows that the force behind the gusty mercenary regiment is the Countess Agatha of the Eastern County. The reason for the release of this mercenary regiment is to warn the nobles of the Northern and Southern counties to show their strength.

Unspoken rules.

Even now.

The caravans between Kant and his cavalry left without any sign of looting, and they knew it.

Perhaps this is the private soldier of a noble.

Their guess is correct.

It's just that these cavalrymen of Kant are completely low-level light cavalry, not yet his main cavalry. If the real main cavalry arrives, thousands of Swadia heavy cavalry, the scale of the march can be even more terrifying!

Even people carrying a full set of heavy armor and horseshoes beating on the ground are as terrifying as floods and earthquakes.

of course.

Kant has no interest in these caravans.

Rolfe was still interested, but in the idea of ​​trekking, he did not act rashly.

In the event of a mistake, the local nobles of the East County leader are aware that these people will be rounded up. After all, this is not the North County leader. It is also far from the Jianshi Pass, and reinforcements cannot always appear.

The most important thing is Avilesburg is in front.

Viscount Gibran.

This elder famous man is not a vegetarian. The elite people also make Kant slightly afraid.

It can be faintly independent of the traditional rule of the Principality of the Lions. It does not rely on the closure of the Countess Agatha, and this one in the hands of Viscount Gibran, enough to deter any elite troops!

Knights of 1ooo people, elite infantry of 3ooo people.

It was the seed army trained by the army that survived the **** battle ten years ago.

Absolutely not bad in combat effectiveness.

It is said that it also refers to the training method of the infantry by the Silver Plate Kingdom. The combat strength is extremely strong. With the 4-meter long gun, a square matrix of long guns is formed, even the ordinary knights dare not easily approach.

Not to mention the frontal strong rushing phalanx, it will definitely cause heavy casualties.

Approaching the evening.

Kant finally arrived near Avilesburg.

On the flat field in front, at the top of a slightly raised hill, a towering castle is being built on top of it. The towers of arrows and towers are stacked on top of each other, and the outer walls are thickened and heavy, and the defense is perfect.

The dim light of the sunset sprinkled on the castle, and the visual impact it brought was not inferior to Kant's castle.

The only Viscount of the East County.

It is also the only castle.

Viscount Gibran of Avilesburg.

Kant flicked the horse belly and continued to lead the team forward, just under the castle, there was a smoky blue smoke rising, which was the smoke rising from the village of the peasants who lived by the castle.

The castle also requires farmers to supply daily supplies.

Moreover, it can be called in wartime.

It is also commonplace to form shabby armed militias or call for peasants to serve as cannon fodder, temporarily resist the enemy's degree of attack, ease the pressure on the main forces, and adjust tactical arrangements as soon as possible to make up for deficiencies.

Now Kant is going to the village, not to fight, but to rest.

Accommodation or temporary camping.

Their identities are mercenaries, and by the way, they are asking whether they are willing to hire them in the castle.

Of course, the price will definitely be high, even if Avilesburg is willing to hire, in the end it is impossible to negotiate a cooperation~www.readwn.com~ Kant came here just to observe and observe this castle, and even see Viscount Gibran Well, his real purpose is still to go to the core of Dongjun Ling, which is Dongjuncheng.

Standing in the city on the north bank of the Ristniston River, it is one of the only cities in the Principality of Lions.

It is also the only city in the East County.

It is also a commercial city, a port city, and many merchants on the Resiston River came to the first stop of the Principality of the Lions. It used to be the East County City, but after the Countess Agatha blocked the outside world, more commercial economy Influx into the Lion's Heart City in the southern county, instead, it helped the royal family increase its tax revenue several times.

In fact, there is a reason. Kant understands that the bandits of the Resiston River are arrogant and tight in the section of the East County. After all, the south bank is the Nalburg that has become the area of ​​the Kingdom of the Silver Plate.

The existence of the bandits is also the reason for the indulgence of the Kingdom of the Silver Plate against the Principality of Lions.

Kant was also in touch with the bandits.

The old part of Princess Sophia, left outside, is another piece.

He came to the East County Territory and wanted to see what has changed in this closed territory. The purpose is also to be close to the Borg of the East County City, use this once chess piece, and complete the strategic deployment.

The Northern Territory was almost infiltrated by Kant.

Next up is the East County Leader.

Taking control of the land of the two counties, the final southern county leader could not escape Kant's penetration.

As long as the final strength of the troops is sufficient and the infiltrated nobles of all sizes are reached, eventually the Principality of the Lions will be slowly eroded by frogs boiled in warm water and become the territory of Kant.

What's more, there is also an ancient passage connecting the Resiston River beneath the Eastern Territory.

Although I don't know where to go to the Resiston River.

It is absolutely very important. ()
