Warlord: King of All Clans

Chapter 706: River Bend Soldiers

Seeing Yue Gechaer leave excitedly, Norin couldn't help but say, "You are letting the tiger go back to the mountain."

Leo laughed and said, "Just let it go. What kind of tiger can withstand the bullets from the river bend?"

Hearing Leo's words, Noreen couldn't help but feel moved.

These are words that can only be said with absolute confidence.

Only such people can be called heroes.

Leo's decision was not made on a whim.

The Talhan tribe is the only neighbor to the west of the Earldom of Riverbend, especially since Riverbend occupied the city of Xingtao. The entire border between the west and the north is occupied by the two tribes, leaving no room for a third tribe.

The profits from the monopolized cross-border trade are so huge that they are beyond people's imagination. Many small commodities that seem insignificant in the local market can easily have profits ten or even a hundred times higher.

The internal strife of the Tarhan tribe will only affect the development of Hewan.

The situation he hoped for most was that the Tarhan tribe would be stable and able to serve as a resource supplier for Hewan, but not strong enough to have any ambitions towards Hewan.

As for the flintlock rifle and thousand-man cannon, the firearms workshop in Ulangal has broken through the technical barriers and is able to produce them independently.

But in Hewan, it has become an obsolete product.

In the past two years, Hewan's flintlock rifles and thousand-man cannons were still considered high-end weapons in Ulangal, but this may not be the case after two years.

If you don't act soon, the price will only get lower and lower.

Yue Gechar had a good reputation in Hewan and quickly found a general who was willing to go on the business trip.

Leo saw Strong behind Yue Gechaer and immediately shook his head, "You can't go."

Strong, who had been bowing and nodding like a dog, suddenly felt extremely aggrieved, "Woof woof woof! Why? I am also a general of the River Bay now!"

After the Battle of Gustavus, Strong captured two cities for Riverbend, gained recognition from everyone, and returned to the ranks of the core senior military officials.

Although he was stripped of his military power as the commander of the garrison and demoted to the gatekeeper of the River Bay House because he did not take off his shoes again when entering the lord's house after his return, no one really took it seriously.

Of course Leo couldn't say that letting him go was the real way to let the bull go back to the mountains, and the one he let go was the Bull Demon King.

Leo was somewhat surprised by the military talent that Strong had demonstrated in recent years. What was most terrifying was not Strong’s talent, but his learning ability.

Strong, who was originally just a small goblin chief, transformed rapidly after arriving at the river bend. He took the initiative to learn the use of firearms and military tactics. Now he has escaped from the illiterate stage and can understand human military books by himself.

Ordinary generals can only understand military books, but for foreign generals with rich practical combat experience, it makes up for their shortcomings and improves their upper limit. When theory and practice are combined, the command ability is multiplied.

Kroger, the ogre king who is illiterate and has no talent, still cannot manage the hundreds of people under his command. He can only win the support of the people by relying on overwhelming military force and the right to distribute supplies in the river bay.

The werewolf king Aqhan, who was good at studying but had little talent, could only barely rule over thousands of werewolves and barely serve as the leader of the werewolf special forces regiment.

Even a troll king like Asa had only learned some of the human ruling skills. If she was asked to lead a full legion to fight independently, she would be equally overwhelmed.

Only Strong can, like the famous generals of the human race, take advantage of the right time, place and people.

But Strong is cunning and adventurous, and Leo is worried that he might do something out of line.

Yue Gechaer was very dissatisfied, "Brother-in-law, you said it yourself, if someone is willing to go, you should agree!"

Leo said, "I'm talking about people, not cows."

Strong scratched his butt anxiously, grabbed the two Minotaur cubs that came over, and threw them at Leo's feet, "Look, I'm holding my son here, and I will never violate the military orders of the River Bend."

Leo was speechless, "This is the son you just recognized a few days ago!"

At this time, Six stood up and said, "I'll go too! I'm the general of the Kobolds, I can control the disobedient Strong!"

She puffed out her chest and wagged her tail, looking very proud.

Everyone looked at the little dog-headed man whose tail hair was singed by the fire and said, "Oh, right, right, okay, go play somewhere else."

Feeling discriminated against, Six immediately bared his teeth and attacked his friends indiscriminately.

With the efforts of the three, Leo finally agreed to Strong, and after a long lecture and many restrictions, he let him go.

The situation in the western border requires some necessary intervention, but the culture over there is no different from that of other races, and there are no rules at all.

Leo had no other good candidate except to go himself, and Strong was more qualified.

Freya was worried about Xikes going to the West alone, so she planned to go with her to protect her and go to Sister Haoduo Ni to give her a bath.

When Totos and Snell heard this, of course they wanted to go too. They could also take the opportunity to play cards with Hati.

As a result, the high-level swordsman Gerard had to go as well.

As the leader of their small mercenary group, the extraordinary sniper Bjorn had no choice but to follow.

Fisher, Barrett and Lynch, who are keen on adventure and travel, all joined the ranks.

When they set out, a super warrior team at the level of the Earl's personal guard, a thousand elite musketeers, gathered around Yue Gechar.

The River Bend Musketeers who applied this time are all elite veterans of the River Bend Legion, and they all have at least three years of cold weapon combat experience and three years of firearms combat experience.

With sufficient military supplies at Hewan and regular supply of dragon blood, dragon meat, and magic honey, the physical fitness of these soldiers has reached the level of heavy-armored elite infantry.

Many grassroots officers also used their military merits to exchange for low-level awakening potions from Master Morse and became extraordinary people, and there were even warriors who awakened naturally.

Although low-level extraordinary people are also unable to block bullets, their reactions are sharper, their physical strength is more abundant, and even their learning abilities have been improved to varying degrees.

These professional soldiers are completely unemployed and make their fortunes purely by fighting in wars. Of course they flock to such a lucrative job in the middle of winter.

Hewan only has a fixed salary in peacetime, and additional salary and military merit rewards in wartime.

This time, in addition to Hewan’s military pay, Yue Gechaer will also pay a hireling fee.

There were a total of two thousand people who signed up, but Leo only let Strong select one thousand.

The army gathered in Hekou Town, and a large number of musketeers, wearing Hewan individual combat suits, crowded in the military camp outside the town.

The militia guards of Hekou Town looked at these professional soldiers with envy while patrolling and standing guard.

These Northern men, all over 1.8 meters tall, wore a finely crafted cloth armor vest inside, a heavy chain mail shirt in the middle, and the winter military uniform of the River Bay outside.

Even if it is the barbarians' heavy longbow, as long as it is not shot at close range, after the sharp arrow penetrates the armor, the remaining power is unlikely to cause fatal damage.

They all wore uniform military leather boots, which were not only waterproof and non-slip, but also had steel plates inlaid on the soles and toes, so they could break someone's bones with one kick.
