The Emerald Tower
Chapter 40 Preparations
Facing the mobilized young man, Dean didn't wait any longer, and shouted directly——
Siron!
Here, Captain!
After the young militia captain answered loudly, he stood up straight.
Lead your team and go to the outpost I was stationed before to set up defenses - that is the closest place between the bandits and Tyreland. If they want to retreat into the snowy forest, it is the only way to go! Remember, your The task is to arm the defense, and report immediately after finding traces!
Yes, Captain!
After the young militia captain saluted a substandard military salute, he first stepped aside under Dean's gesture, and then Dean looked at Ike, and he said: Although those swords have been maintained before , but if you want a real fight, these swords are not enough; what's more, you are good at bows and arrows, right?
The young people including the two militia captains all nodded subconsciously.
And Ike, who had been stared at by Dean, said with some embarrassment: But there are no bows and arrows in our warehouse?
Not there, but there are in Tire Town. As a hunter-gathered town, every household in Tire Town has Tibetan bows!
As such words came out, the young people in the hall were all stunned—obviously, they thought of something bad.
It is very common for nobles to use some excuses to forcibly confiscate the belongings of civilians. Although Baron Tyre has never done it, several barons around him often do such things. Young people living in Tyre Naturally, I have heard of it.
What's more, what was confiscated this time was bows and arrows - for the hunter's family, bows and arrows are the foundation of survival, and everyone knows it well.
No hunter would pledge his bow and arrows except at the last moment.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the entire hall was suffocated, as if it was about to freeze.
However, Dean would not give these young people who had just collected a chance to think about it. He directly took out a money bag and threw it at the thin militia captain: There are twenty Kimptons in it, and among them Fifteen pieces are enough for you to buy a batch of bows and arrows to equip everyone! The remaining five pieces will require you to buy a lot of food, after you leave the barracks, there will be no more food for that outpost!
At this moment, the young people who thought that Dean had some bad intentions all lowered their heads in shame. The emaciated militia captain blushed even more, while the other militia captain looked at Dean excitedly— —Obviously, he didn't expect that Dean would specifically think about their food.
In fact, in Xi Lun's mind, it would be the best thing for them to deploy the defense this time, if they could bring the food left over from the celebration banquet as dry food.
However, he naturally said that this is an extravagant hope. The biggest possibility is the dry hard rye, buckwheat and some wild vegetables in the barracks kitchen. In fact, most of the time in the barracks, they are This is what I eat; even after using fire to warm it up, it looks like I'm eating a dry clod.
As for repurchasing?
Such a thing is no longer an extravagant hope, Xi Lun dare not even think about it.
But even the things that I didn't even dare to think about, have come true like this.
Seeing the young man sitting there continuing to assign tasks for the rest of the people, Siren had an inexplicable feeling for the first time—I really hope that Lord Dean can sit here forever,
Be our head.
Undoubtedly, Siren is definitely not the only one who feels this way. Those young people who went to garrison all looked at Dean with such excitement.
As for the former head Potts?
Nature is best never to come back.
Dean didn't know the voices of the young people, but he could guess a thing or two by looking at the expressions of these young people.
And this is exactly what he needs - he wants these young people to be under his command all at once, no matter how simple and simple these people are, it is impossible.
In addition to the time accumulated over time, it is natural to experience such kindness time and time again.
Of course, for these simple young people in front of them, 'en' is undoubtedly more important-the hunters' longbows, although they are also called longbows, are different from the longbows provided by Long Lang, but a simplification After all, the longbows of hunters are all made by themselves.
Although it is considered good, it is impossible to reach the level of a real bow maker. Apart from materials, it is more about craftsmanship.
Therefore, the value of hunters' longbows is several times lower than that of real bowmakers.
Under normal circumstances, a longbow made of high-quality materials but made by an unknown bow maker costs at most six or seven silver horns.
Under normal circumstances, the price of a longbow made by an unknown bowmaker is two to three times, or even higher than that of a hunter's longbow.
Therefore, fifteen Kimptons, a full one hundred and fifty silver horns, are more than enough to buy about thirty 'longbows' made by hunters, even more than doubled.
Regiment, regiment leader, this is really too much. If you buy bows and arrows, half of them will be enough!
The thin militia captain held the money bag in his hand, as if it was extremely hot, handed it to Dean, and stammered to Dean.
Then you choose a longbow of sufficient value for me, and enough bows and arrows. Remember, these are weapons for you to use yourself. You must not be careless, because this is related to your life—— Now, Captain Ike, I order you to lead enough people to buy bows and arrows, can it be done?
Dean didn't take the money bag at all, he looked at the thin militia captain in front of him, and said very solemnly.
can!
The emaciated militia captain answered loudly, and then, under Dean's gaze, ordered the six companions, turned around and walked out of the barracks.
Siron!
Dean yelled.
arrive!
The remaining militia captain immediately replied loudly.
Before Ike comes back, you lead your men to rest and replace those on duty with auxiliary soldiers!
Dean ordered.
Yes, Captain!
The militia captain once again saluted the military before turning around and leaving.
Compared with before, this military salute is undoubtedly a bit more standard.
...
At sunset in the evening, when the snow on both sides of the road in front of the general camp was stained with a layer of red, Ike returned to the military camp with his six companions.
Not only did they successfully bring back enough longbows and arrows for thirty people, but also so much food that the six strong young men collapsed on the floor of the hall from exhaustion as soon as they returned to the barracks. Panting and needing help from others to take things off.
Siren was the first to run over, took out one of the longbows and several arrows and handed them to Dean.
Holding the longbow and arrows handed over by his subordinates, Dean can be sure that these are definitely the best longbows and arrows in the hands of hunters. Although there are no arrows or bow tires made of pure steel, they are all made of It is made of tough and high-quality birch wood—and this is definitely not a simple matter, at least it takes nearly a year from the initial material selection to oil immersion, to drying and other processes, plus the subsequent bowstring , and the maintenance of the longbow, this time and energy will be spent more.
Undoubtedly, the thin militia captain was doing this with great care.
Not only made the Kimpton he spent worthwhile, but even exceeded it—and the excess was naturally the result of the efforts of Ike and others.
After all, there are some things that money can't buy.
Just like the birch bow in his hand, it is definitely a weapon and survival tool that every hunter loves. Stubborn temper, especially the Tyrians, who are the representatives of the mountain people.
Ike, well done!
As Dean spoke, he took out three Kimptons and put them in the hands of this thin militia captain——Dean would never be stingy with rewards for his subordinates, not to mention, these coins in his hands The longbow is worth making up for such a price difference. After checking it again, Dean is very sure.
What's more, Dean can't feel at ease by asking his subordinates to 'make up' the price difference for him.
Regiment, leader, this, this...
The militia captain, who was slumped on the floor, immediately jumped up, looking at Kimpton in his hands helplessly.
One of them is a reward for you and the six people who completed the mission this time. As for how to distribute it, it depends on you! Dean said, and sat back in his seat, then pointed to himself The eyes said: The rest is the price difference of these longbows - I don't want to be mistaken by others, what selfishness am I doing this for!
Everyone is voluntary, and the Kimpton you gave before, leader, is enough...
The thin militia captain tried his best to explain.
We all know these things, but what about other people? Especially some of my enemies, they definitely don't mind pouring dirty water on me, making it a stain on my life!
Dean straightened up the relationship between the two parties, and said something meaningful—integrating himself into a group, establishing a mutual interest relationship, and the emergence of an imaginary enemy who wants to compete for these interests, no doubt, will be more closer to each other.
Although it is not good to use such means in the face of some simple young people, but in order to gather this team around him in a short time, Dean has to use some means.
Siron, now choose a suitable bow and arrow and enough food, and then, take your spears and start to station at the outpost-every other day, I need to know the news there, you can take two horses as a Prepare to send the letter! Remember, I only need to arm and monitor, not fight!
Dean exhorted again.
Yes, Captain!
Siren replied loudly, leading his team to start preparations, while Ike and others on the side also began to help their companions and friends prepare, and, from time to time, sent some words of blessing—as if It is common for recruits to enter the battlefield for the first time, even if their task seems very simple.
Dean, who was sitting in the chair, moved his gaze slowly. When he saw the cloud in the sky outside the door that was dyed red by the setting sun, like blood, he couldn't help thinking silently: The bloody battle... will last for a long time!
PS It’s too late to be decadent... I’m sorry to say~~~ I’m asking for everyone’s support again~~~
