The journey of film and television world is endless

Misda suddenly realized: "It can be like this! But if we agree, are we really going to go to war with Baalbo Cao? His 'Kalasar(卡拉萨: clan)' is also relatively strong among the horse kings. Even if we win in a head-on fight, our losses will not be small." He can't see through conspiracies, but he is very good at fighting, and is already considering how to fight to minimize losses.

Liu Yuan smiled and said: "No need, none of those who can be 'Cao(卡奥: king)' for twenty years are fools. Once they fight us head-on, the casualties of the warriors are hard to say, but the tribes behind him will definitely not be able to escape. I estimate that there will be at most small-scale contests, or some people will be selected for martial arts competitions. As for duels... hehehe..." Liu Yuan smiled, and the officers below also laughed.

As Liu Yuan expected, just after nightfall, a team of people rode to the 'daying(大营: camp)'. It was 'Wu Pi Si(乌郫斯: name)', who left during the day. This time he brought two big figures, and respectfully handed over a greeting card.

Liu Yuan saw two names written on it: 'Wo Ke Sen · Nei La Di Si(沃克森·内拉提斯: name)' and 'Yi Li Li Ou · Mo Pa Ti Si(伊利里欧·摩帕提斯: name)', who are the actual governors of Pentos. The arrival of the two governors in person already represents their sincerity. Of course, he will give this face. As for whether to support Pentos, it depends on how thick the other party's sincerity is.

As soon as a few people entered the big tent, 'Wu Pi Si(乌郫斯: name)' respectfully introduced: "My lord, hello! The Governor's Council attaches great importance to your request. The two respected governors have come to see you overnight. This is our Pentos Governor 'Wo Ke Sen(沃克森: name)', and this is Governor 'Yi Li Li Li Ou(伊利里利欧: name)'." The two lifted their hoods, inside which were the orange-red and gold robes that only governors could wear.

Governor 'Wo Ke Sen(沃克森: name)' came from the Forty Noble Families, while Governor 'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' came from the bottom. He was able to put down his face and took the initiative to greet the servants to bring two large boxes, which were full of gold and silver jewelry after opening. 'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' said: "Your Excellency 'Jia Long(加隆: name)', I don't know how to call you. 'Wu Pi Si(乌郫斯: name)' said that your army is mighty and majestic, so Governor 'Wo Ke Sen(沃克森: name)' and I came to seek your help. Here are some gifts, not a tribute, please accept them. I wonder if we can get your friendship?"

Liu Yuan smiled and said: "Please sit down, two governors. I am the leader of the 'Ri Yue(日月: Sun and Moon)' Legion. Just call me Commander 'Jia Long(加隆: name)'. The envoy from your side may not have made it clear before. Now that the two governors are here, can you explain what you need me to do?"

'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' and 'Wo Ke Sen(沃克森: name)' exchanged glances, and 'Wo Ke Sen(沃克森: name)' said: "I think Commander 'Jia Long(加隆: name)' already knows that a 'Ma Wang(马王: Horse King)' tribe has come outside the city. Although Pentos has always been relatively kind and willing to exchange money for peace, the other party's asking price is too high." (Here is an explanation: 'Kalasar' is 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: dothraki)' language. It means 'ethnic group', but other people call it a tribe.)

Liu Yuan said: "You want to hire my legion to destroy this 'Ma Wang(马王: Horse King)' tribe? To be honest, this price is probably much higher than the tribute to the 'Ma Wang(马王: Horse King)' ."

'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' said: "No, Commander 'Jia Long(加隆: name)', you may have misunderstood. You should know that since the peace agreement signed between Pentos and 'Bu La Fo Si(布拉佛斯: Braavos)' 80 years ago, we cannot hire such a large-scale legion. And we Pentos have always valued peace, we only hope that your legion can be stationed outside the city. So that the 'Ma Wang(马王: Horse King)' will not force too much, of course we will provide your legion with some 'funding'." He emphasized the accent on his 'funding', and took out a list and handed it to the guards beside him.

The guard presented the scroll to Liu Yuan. He was very satisfied with the other party's attitude after reading it. The list listed some materials, many of which he needed, and 20,000 Pentos gold coins. Liu Yuan took out a document and handed it to 'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' and said: "I have received Pentos' sincerity. These are some of my requirements. If the governors agree, I will send troops to suppress 'Ba Er Bo(拔尔勃: name)' tribe. Even if there is a conflict, I will be fully responsible for quelling it. In the next five years, we will provide a cavalry team to patrol the trade routes outside Pentos City to maintain public order for free, but their supplies will be provided by Pentos."

'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' and 'Wo Ke Sen(沃克森: name)' carefully read the agreement. In fact, the content is very simple, that is, to allocate a piece of land in the sphere of influence of Pentos for the families of the legion to live temporarily, with a lease term of ten years! In exchange, the legion will send a cavalry team of at least a thousand people, commanded by Pentos, mainly responsible for maintaining the 'Shang Lu(商路: trade route)' outside the city, and the specific number of soldiers and task rewards can be negotiated separately.

The legion can purchase supplies from the city at market prices, and there must be no malicious price increases or shoddy goods. The legion can rent the port of Pentos City for supplies transfer and troop deployment. If commercial activities are carried out, taxes must be paid to Pentos.

Pentos can give priority to military support to the legion. Pentos City is responsible for compensating the losses suffered by the legion during the support period.

The content is not much, but to avoid 'Bu La Fo Si(布拉佛斯: Braavos)' military restrictions on Pentos, the two parties are not an employment relationship, but a kind of cooperation and mutual assistance. In this way, Pentos has an additional military force of more than 10,000 people, and what it pays is only equal trade and a small piece of land.

Governor 'Wo Ke Sen(沃克森: name)' smiled and said: "The conditions put forward by Commander 'Jia Long(加隆: name)' are legitimate requirements and not excessive. I believe my colleagues will agree, but please forgive me for taking it to the council for discussion. We will rush back to Pentos for consultation now, and I believe we will give you an answer tomorrow."

Watching the envoy's back disappear into the night, Liu Yuan stretched out his hand to touch his chin and muttered to himself: "Things are getting more and more interesting!" This 'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' is the Pentos governor who will marry 'Dan Ni Li Si(丹妮莉丝: Daenerys)' to 'Zhuo Ge(卓戈: Drogo)' in the future. But what really caught Liu Yuan's attention was his bodyguard 'Qiong En · Ke Lin Dun(琼恩·克林顿: Jon Connington)', Prince 'Lei Jia · Tan Ge Li An(雷加·坦格利安: Rhaegar Targaryen)' confidant friend, the former prime minister of the Mad King 'Yi Li Si Er Shi(伊里斯二世: Aerys II)', the man who almost killed 'Lao Bo(劳勃: Robert)'.

Liu Yuan had seen him in 'He Lun Bao(赫伦堡: Harrenhal)' and 'Jun Lin Cheng(君临城: King's Landing)' a few years ago, and he would never admit it. Now he is following 'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' incognito, plus 'Wa Li Si(瓦里斯: Varys)' and 'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' are life-and-death friends. Tsk tsk, he absolutely doesn't believe that there is no conspiracy in it.

……………………………………

On the straight 'Wa Lei Li Ya(瓦雷利亚: Valyrian)' Avenue, the usually endless stream of merchants are now hiding on both sides of the road. Some of them looked in horror at the army passing by on the road. Teams of infantry with long spears and large shields advanced in neat formations! The neat footsteps made people's heartbeats vibrate with it. Looking from a distance, you can't see the end at a glance. On both sides of the road were two rows of cavalry, wearing dark armor. The masks on the helmets covered their faces, giving people an unspeakable shock.

Many merchants were whispering and guessing where the army came from. Thinking of the 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people who arrived ten days ago, some people said: "Is this the army invited by Pentos? I'm afraid there are tens of thousands of people! Is it the 'Huang Jin Tuan(黄金团: Golden Company)'?"

Someone said disdainfully: "Don't talk nonsense if you don't have knowledge. The armor of the 'Huang Jin Tuan(黄金团: Golden Company)' is golden, and I haven't seen the golden skull battle flag! This should be a regular army from somewhere, right? I haven't heard of any city-state that dares to be an enemy of the 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people."... Similar remarks spread everywhere. In fact, there are many merchants who have seen the legion at the 'Xiao Luo En He(小洛恩河: Little Rhoyne)' ferry, but they all kept silent.

The army slowly drove into the east gate of Pentos City and set up camp in the open space about a mile away from the gate. Before long, wide ditches were dug, and countless bundles of bundled logs were pulled up, and a wooden wall appeared. Before the sun set, a huge camp had sprung up from the ground.

Such a big movement here naturally alarmed the 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people in the south. Several batches of cavalry with hundreds of riders have already come, but seeing so many people here, they can't deal with it at all. More importantly, the leader recognized that the guys working were all 'Wu Gou Zhe(无垢者: Unsullied)'. He left some people to continue monitoring and ran back to report to 'Ka Ao(卡奥: king)'.

After several months, the main battle infantry based on 'Wu Gou Zhe(无垢者: Unsullied)' have all been replaced. The auxiliary soldiers expanded from slaves in the later period put on the armor replaced by 'Wu Gou Zhe(无垢者: Unsullied)'. The cavalry troops reorganized by 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people have the style of a regular army. 'Mi Si Da(米斯达: name)' left some cavalry to monitor those 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people, and the others arranged their camps according to the regulations.

A group of gorgeously dressed people on the city wall pointed at the outside. They are the rulers of Pentos, the current Pentos prince and eight governors. Looking at the military appearance outside, they felt that their Pay was meaningful. 'Wo Ke Sen(沃克森: name)' boasted endlessly to his colleagues about his performance during the negotiation that night.

And 'Yi Li Li Ou(伊利里欧: name)' had uncertain eyes, thinking about how to plan to use the 'Ri Yue(日月: Sun and Moon)' Legion for his own use. He quietly said to the guard beside him: "'Shi Jiu(狮鹫: Griffin)', what do you think? Is it possible to win over that Commander 'Jia Long(加隆: name)'? Let him help 'Xiao Ge Li Fen(小格里芬: Young Griff)' plot a great cause like 'Hei Xin(黑心: Blackheart)'."

'Qiong En · Ke Lin Dun(琼恩·克林顿: Jon Connington)', who was using the pseudonym 'Shi Jiu(狮鹫: Griffin)', silently shook his head: "There is too little contact to judge. This person is different from 'Hei Xin(黑心: Blackheart)'. We don't know what conditions he needs to be moved. A rash invitation may bring danger to 'Xiao Ge Li Fen(小格里芬: Young Griff)'."

Beside the cliff on the southern coast of Pentos, a 'Xing Gong(行宫: palace)' formed by nine tall towers is the palace that Pentos has built over the years to entertain the 'Ma Wang(马王: Horse King)'. In order to fit the customs of the 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people, there are no extra buildings, but the square in front of the 'Xing Gong(行宫: palace)' is quite wide.

Currently on the square, countless tents are scattered in a stepped form on the periphery. Tens of thousands of 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people are reveling in front of the bonfire. In a huge tent outside the tower, all the high-level officials of 'Ka La Sa(卡拉萨: clan)' are here. 'Ba Er Bo · Ka Ao(拔尔勃·卡奥: Baalbo Cao)' looked at his son with a smile, 'Zhuo Ge · Ka La Ke(卓戈·卡拉喀: Drogo Karak)' easily overturned several warriors, which is a 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' wrestling game. Others happily cheered on the sidelines, and came up to make gestures even if they were thrown back with smiles on their faces.

They raised their glasses and drank 'Ma Nai Jiu(马奶酒: mare's milk wine)', and also other wines sent by Pentos. At this moment, someone lifted the tent and walked in. The person who came was 'Ba Lu Lu(巴鲁鲁: name)', one of 'Ba Er Bo(拔尔勃: name)' blood oath guard. He came to 'Ba Er Bo(拔尔勃: name)' with a bad face and said loudly without shyness: "'Ka Ao(卡奥: king)'! 'Ba Si Ba(巴斯巴: name)' brought back news that an army came outside Pentos City."

The big tent suddenly became quiet, and everyone turned their attention. 'Ba Er Bo(拔尔勃: name)' pushed away the woman in his arms and stared at him and asked: "An army is nothing more than that. Did the Pentos people invite helpers? How many people are there?"

'Ba Lu Lu(巴鲁鲁: name)': "I don't know. It is said that tens of thousands of people have come, including several thousand 'Wu Gou Zhe(无垢者: Unsullied)'. They also have many cavalry, and our people cannot get too close." His words caused an uproar among the people. 'Wu Gou Zhe(无垢者: Unsullied)' represents both disdain and deep fear among the 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people.

'Ba Er Bo(拔尔勃: name)' waved his hand to stop the noise and announced loudly: "In any case, we must pay attention to this matter. You all go back to gather your tribes and prepare for battle. Tomorrow morning, we will meet this strange army. Also, send people out to be vigilant to avoid being ambushed by the enemy."

"Yes, 'Ka Ao(卡奥: king)'!"…………

The next morning, the entire 'Ka La Sa(卡拉萨: clan)' began to assemble. More than 10,000 warriors rode their horses in the forefront. Originally, the old, weak, women and children should have stayed in the 'Xing Gong(行宫: palace)', but 'Ba Er Bo(拔尔勃: name)' insisted that the whole family set off. He knew very well that no matter what the purpose of the suddenly appearing army was, his 'Ka La Sa(卡拉萨: clan)' should leave after the matter was resolved. The people of the Free Trade City-States are just cowardly, not lambs to be slaughtered.

They drove the livestock and slaves, and 'Ba Er Bo(拔尔勃: name)' sent two thousand warriors to protect them all the way. Most of the tens of thousands of warriors were roaring warriors. They rode their horses valiantly and spiritedly, and 'Zhuo Ge(卓戈: Drogo)' was at the front of the team. Gradually they saw the distant stockade, and on the open space in front, the infantry phalanxes lined up to meet the enemy, and the standing like a forest spears shone with a cold light in the sun. On both wings of the line were countless black-armored cavalry, who were silent except for the occasional neighing of war horses, without a trace of noise.

After Liu Yuan reorganized the legion, he already had ten infantry battalions, each battalion with more than 800 people, a total of more than 8,400 people. Among them, five battle battalions based on 'Wu Gou Zhe(无垢者: Unsullied)', leather-bottomed steel heavy 'Zha Jia(扎甲: lamellar armor)', and helmets were 'Tie Dou Mou(铁兜鍪: iron helmet)' with long eaves around the circumference, which shows that 'Dou(兜: helmet)' is a conical round iron helmet, which is very tight in protection, and ordinary weapons are difficult to break through it, and it has a miraculous effect on the protection of arrows. The main weapons are spears and 'Gou Lian Qiang(钩镰枪: hook scythe spear)', and tower shields and double arc shields are used according to different needs. The secondary weapons are thick-backed 'Yan Ling Dao(雁翎刀: wild goose feather sabre)', short knives, war hammers, flying axes, armor-piercing cones, javelins, etc.

The other five auxiliary battalions, which were formed later, were composed of strong men selected from slaves. They were equipped with short swords, shields, spears, and spiked helmets that were replaced by those who were not enough. After several months of training, they have mastered many combat skills, and the advantage is that they have a strong desire to fight.

There are fifteen cavalry battalions, each battalion with more than 500 people, totaling more than 7,700 people. Among them, twelve battalions are heavy- armored archers, equipped with improved composite cavalry bows, three pots of sharp arrows, and one pot of triangular armor-piercing heavy arrows with a total of 150; a refined 'Yan Ling Dao(雁翎刀: wild goose feather sabre)', two daggers and short axes each; a leather-iron mixed 'Luo Quan Jia(罗圈甲: Lamellar armor)', including arm armor and leg armor boots, a cylindrical leather-clad steel helmet, and a cavalry round shield, of course, the 'Do Si La Ke(多斯拉克: Dothraki)' people's favorite long whip is indispensable.

Two heavy-armored 'Qiang Qi Bing(枪骑兵: lancer)' battalions specially used to break through formations, equipped with steel plate composite 'Zha Jia(扎甲: lamellar armor)', animal head helmet, and men and horses with armor; the main weapons are 'Chang Bing Ma Shuo(长柄马槊: long-handled lance)' and 'Jiu ZiJi' each, and a long-handled two-handed army saber ( Miaodao shape is slightly shorter). The secondary weapons are short knives, nail head hammers, cone-shaped daggers, hand axes, and five short- handle javelin, which is also their only long-range attack method.

A scout cavalry battalion is mainly used for reconnaissance and searching light cavalry. The equipment is refined leather armor or cotton armor, and the weapons are configured according to personal habits, but precision 'Heng Dao(横刀: long knife)' and repeating crossbow are standard.

In addition, there is a guard battalion and a chariot battalion, and two crossbow battalions. Only those who can be used as combat units have exceeded 19,000 people.

The remaining artisans and slaves were all managed militarily, organized into artisan camps, laborer camps, and corvée camps. When these people stood in formation within the camps, it was quite intimidating!
