Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

Guerrero, the commander of the Highland City cavalry, walked down the stairs of the city walls, and while listening to the reports of his personal guards, he headed towards the cavalry's garrison.

"Have the messenger sent to Langya Ridge returned yet? I suddenly ordered the border to be blocked. Now it is the winter when the materials are most scarce in various places. It is simply a complete mess!"

The captain of the guard bowed and replied, "The Count of Wolf Tooth could not resist his greed this fall, and sent a team of cavalry to disguise themselves as robbers and bandits, fleeing into Daes' territory and invading several towns on the border. The result was just right The Daes Mages team who were patrolling the border was caught. The Count's second son was defeated and captured. It is probably because of this that the Count of Wolf Tooth suddenly blocked the border and strictly guarded against the mage assassins who sneaked into the border from the Wizard Kingdom."

Guerrero tsk and said with disgust: "I heard that when his youngest son was sent back, his tongue was cut off and his eyes were blinded. Those blasphemous wizards were so cruel..."

Although there is a reason for this, if the border is continuously closed, the freight trade of most of the Southern Chamber of Commerce will be affected. Eisengard is located in the northeast of the southern border, and most of the country is mainly grassland deserts, except for the rich gold mines in the Shenji Mountains. The industries on which the country relies on to survive are only animal husbandry, and important materials such as grain and cloth are trafficked from abroad by high prices. Highland City is an important transit station for domestic trade and transportation. Most of the people and nobles living in the city are also They are all engaged in goods trade.

"But... although our people have not sent back the news, a chamber of commerce has successfully opened up the relationship and entered the country smoothly from Langyaling. We can ask their people to see what the situation is going on at the border. how."

Guerrero nodded and said casually: "Go and call the person in charge of that chamber of commerce, don't delay... Before the first snow falls, we must urge Langya Ridge to reopen the gate and let the caravan enter as soon as possible! ”

...

"Good afternoon, honored Commander Guerrero."

"You are..." Guerrero looked at the thin old man with pale hair and beard in front of him, and always felt that the other party had different temperaments from the slick businessman he had dealing with in the past, and seemed to be more like a handsome aristocratic tutor in his every move.

"Randy Hughes, just call me Old Hughes. I am the manager of the store station sent by the Shixin Chamber of Commerce to Eisengard... Haha, speaking of it, Glenmore is also my hometown where I was born and raised!"

"Oh? Are you a Glenmore native?" Guerrero raised his eyebrows, "I've never seen you in Highlands before."

Old Hughes smiled humbly, "I have only returned to my hometown recently. The leader of the chamber of commerce thinks that I am old and no longer suitable to lead the caravan to travel a long distance, so he directly assigned me to take over the storefront in my hometown. It's half retired."

After saying that, he took out a purse with exquisite silk threads from his arms, held it in his hands in flatteringly and handed it to Guerrero, "I heard that the city lord Earl Isaac patrolled the holy city Gorries for many years... In Highland City, the Shixin Chamber of Commerce is entirely responsible for the leader!”

Guerrero weighed the wallet and used his fingertips to open the bag. As he wished, he saw seven or eight smooth and dazzling gems ore contained there. He nodded with satisfaction, "Mr. Hughes, you are polite. Highland City is an important business trade in China. The transit station is extremely welcome to all law-abiding chambers of commerce. If you have any difficulties in the future, just ask them... Even if you need to send cavalry to escort the caravan, it is our responsibility."

Of course, it is one thing to respect the money given to the cavalry commander, and hiring a cavalry to guard the caravan is another price.

When Old Hughes heard this, he put his hands on his sleeves and said happily, "That's great! A large caravan of the Shixin Chamber of Commerce just entered the country from Langya Ridge, and he will arrive in Highland City as soon as tomorrow night. At that time, please inform the city gate guards and let them enter the city as soon as possible..."

"A large caravan entering the country in winter?" Guerrero's heart moved and asked quickly, "Wolf Tooth Earl's closure, how did you get in smoothly when you opened up your relationship? What important goods are being shipped?"

Old Hughes smiled and replied sincerely: "Of course, it is the food, cotton and spices that are scarce in China..."

Then he carefully approached Guerrero's ear and whispered, "And the same thing as what you are holding...the gem ore."

Gem ore? The Shixin Chamber of Commerce also had trade with the dwarves of the Breath of the Hills? This is a smuggling act that crosses the covenant agreements of various countries in the southern border! These businessmen who only have money in their eyes are so bold!

Since it is a smuggling of goods, even if something unexpected happens in the middle and is robbed by robbers and bandits... it is no wonder that others are.

Guerrero smiled and gave a wink at the captain of the guard beside him. His subordinate immediately understood and turned around and left with a grim smile. He just accepted the other party's heavy bribe, so he naturally couldn't turn against him in person, but the slightest bit of it It would not prevent Guerrero from arranging his cavalry from leaving the city immediately, intercepting the chamber of commerce that was coming to the Highlands, and then naturally swallowing this batch of valuable gem ore!

Of course, this kind of chamber of commerce that can conduct long-distance trade across countries in the South naturally has many caravan mercenaries and warriors, including many extraordinary spell casters and blood warriors. It is impossible to deal with them. Only by relying on a few private soldiers to thug, the elite cavalry of the entire system must be dispatched.

So after receiving Guerrero's hint, the captain of the guard immediately rushed to the cavalry regiment's base, and without hesitation, he pointed out half of his troops, taking advantage of the sudden violent sand and dust that suddenly shaved in the evening... and rode out of the city with a sensation.

The winter in the Glenmore Prairie always blew sandstorms from time to time. This dark and windy winter night is a good time to kill and rob. It is not the first time they have done such a thing in so many years. It can be said to be familiar.

...

"We are in the inside of Highland City, and we have really tricked the city guards out of the city?" Duff said in disbelief, "Wasn't Highland City now an empty city without defense? What are we waiting for..."

Wayne held the cigarette, ignited the secret letter in his hand, and smiled sinisterly, "What's the hurry? Eat this elite cavalry who was trying to leave the city to rob, and then disguise it as them in the middle of the night. Scam open the city gate... Old Hughes only cheated half of the defending cavalry. If the remaining defense forces attacked hard, they would still consume a lot of our ammunition reserves, which is a waste! "

Duff rubbed his hands and said with a grim smile: "How many cavalry have come?"

"There are less than a thousand garrisons in the Highland City. I expect that there will be no more than five hundred cavalrymen to be robbed out of the city. Let your battalion prepare for an ambush... but don't let the fish that escaped the net be free. Let us The subsequent raids have emerged!”

"Hehe, less than five hundred cavalry? Just give me an hour! I promise to finish cleaning the battlefield!"

After saying that, he left the command camp without looking back and headed towards the ambush area under the hilly slopes.
