Rise In Calradia

　　Byron spent two days in Zhivache, letting the troops rest, purchased supplies, and found a suitable place to build a dyeing workshop.

　　 There is a dyeing workshop that was abandoned due to fire, and it can be used again after repairing it.

　　 The mayor was also very generous, saying that he would keep this land for Byron, but he also asked Byron to bring salt from the Nord Kingdom to the town, so as not to keep the price of salt in the city from rising.

　　Rivache has two villages in the north that can also produce sea salt, but the quality and quantity cannot meet the requirements.

　　 Byron also agreed to this. The salt trade he had planned would pass through here, and he could sell personal affection, so why not do it.

　　 But when walking, a merchant in the town, Byron, must be careful. From here to the west, the pirates and pirates along the way looted the caravan simply unscrupulously.

　　 Especially the large-scale pirate fleet, a few galleys with one to two hundred pirates, even the city patrol team is not their opponent. Especially as the weather starts to warm up and the sea becomes suitable for navigation, the frequency of their attacks will increase significantly.

For them, Byron is one defense and another defense. For safety, he also chose to go with another caravan. In that caravan there are also eleven guards at the level of hiring sentinels, and eight caravans on horseback. Escort. There are more than a dozen helpers and guys, but the combat effectiveness is obviously not high. The number of them is not safe enough to go to the Nord Kingdom, so the manager of the caravan is happy to go to the Nord Kingdom with Byron.

　　 The team walked for four days, and the terrain gradually became higher and steeper.

　　 If you encounter a place with trees, the horses will struggle to run.

　　 This shows that Byron and the others are getting closer and closer to the Nordic Kingdom. As long as they pass a border castle, they will reach the Nordic territory.

　　 But on the way, Byron also saw some Nord merchants who went to Vijaya to sell goods. There were many horses in their team, and there were also Nord cavalry riding horses.

　　 Obviously, this is different from the situation of Nord’s no cavalry in the game. In reality, the Nord Kingdom always maintains a certain number of lightly armed cavalry, which are used to detect or launch surprise attacks. Similarly, they also raise a large number of horses in captivity to transport goods where there is no river.

　　 It is true that the terrain and horse types of the Nord Kingdom restrict the development of cavalry.

　　 Byron and the others have been very careful all the way, for fear that a bunch of bearded pirates suddenly popped out of the road and hacked them up with slogans.

　　 But when one night, the caravan that was on the road with Byron was missing one person, Fatis and Bandak reminded Byron that something was going on.

　　 In the early morning of the next day, Byron and others from the caravan found the man's body in a quagmire. The body was full of scars, and the human form was almost invisible.

　　 And at this time, Byron also discovered that the terrain around this quagmire is a bit high, if someone kills from both sides at this time...

　　 "Get out of here!"

　　 Byron immediately gave the order, and their team was on the road not far away, and they came to check that there were only a dozen people including Byron and Eleon.

　　 But Byron hadn't turned around yet, and saw a figure appearing from a nearby high slope. In a blink of an eye, an object was wiped off his helmet and stuck on the ground behind him.

　　 "**********"

With a bunch of shouts that Byron couldn’t understand, a large group of bearded pirates wearing chain mail and Nord’s eye helmet rushed out from behind the high slope, and the axes in their hands kept throwing. Several caravan guards were directly nailed to the ground by a dozen axes and four or five javelins, bloody.

　　Byron was so scared that he rolled several times on the ground, and his body was covered with a lot of dirt.

　　 Many javelins also landed not far from him, and several other soldiers also raised their shields or lay down on the ground. Even Elaine held a long sword while evading and retreating.

　　 And when the pirates rushed up like crazy holding the German sword and the one-handed battle axe, even Eleon started to run.

　　 The few people who fell behind were shot in the back by the pirate archers who remained on the high **** and fell to the ground. After the pirates armed with battle axes rushed up, a few axes chopped the backs of the wounded soldiers who were lying on the ground.

　　 The soldiers on the caravan's side were also terrified by this formation, because in a hurry, only two militiamen besides Bandak put the crossbow arrows on the string.

　　 Bandak’s crossbow arrows overturned a pirate archer, but the other two crossbow arrows did not penetrate the pirate’s chain mail at all.

　　 Byron and they returned to the team, avoiding the deadly throwing axes and javelins, panting, their hearts beating violently, as if they were about to jump out of their chests.

　　 In the chaos, Byron also heard the only language he could understand from the pirate:

　　 "I want to use your skull as a bowl!"

　　 This is one of the words that pirates say the most in the game, and is the most familiar to players.

　　 In the game, the pirates have become a novice benefit because of the good experience they have dropped. In reality, the roar of these pirates made Byron shudder.

　　 Because what those savage robbers shouted might really happen to them!

　　 "My skull is too expensive to make a bowl."

　　 Byron murmured, then shouted for the soldiers to defend against the enemy.

　　 Facing such a terrifying and terrifying enemy, the newly joined militiamen almost lost their shields and fled, only trembling and raising their weapons under the reprimand of Fatis and Eleon.

　　Vekia’s senior light infantry also stood in front of the team, and those cavalry also ran out of the team under the command of Fatis, forming two wings.

　　Yamira jumped from the carriage, looked at a raw silk pierced by a javelin, sighed, and then took up the weapon and stood at the back of the team to protect the carriage with the buddies.

　　 The shield was raised, the militiamen thrust their spears, and the light infantry of Swadia also pierced their swords. Vikia's axe was slammed down, and several pirates who rushed to the front fell as a result.

However, the advantage only lasted for a short time. The remaining pirates did not stop because of this, and raised their bucklers to block the attacks of spears and swords and axes, and then swung down the axe with one hand, leaving behind on the shield of the militia. Very deep scratches and cracks~www.novelmt.com~ Those untrained militiamen soon became untenable under the violent beatings of the pirates with roars, and heavy axes smashed their bodies and cut through their bodies. The leather armor, tearing their flesh and blood, smashing their bones.

　　 "Charge! Kill these robbers!"

　　Fatis drove his army horse and brought the two illegitimate riders and caravan guards of Vicia around the team for a short lap, finally picked up the speed and crashed into the team of pirates.

　　Although the number of pirates is less than forty, and there may not be as many as Byron and the others, their madness and fearlessness still suppressed Byron's morale.

Even if nearly twenty cavalry rushed into their ranks, with spears and lances and four or five pirates at once, the rest of them still used swords to stab people without fear, hacked horses with axes, and used them. The body and shield blocked the charging horses. In a blink of an eye, several horses fell down because of injuries and loss of a leg, and the riders sitting on them were hacked to death by the surrounding pirates.

　　 And even if they were so close, there would still be pirates throwing axes and javelins to knock down Byron and their cavalry. In this case, either they don't care about the life and death of their comrades, or they are very confident in their throwing ability.

　　Byron really felt that he had sent people to investigate before it was really white investigation, and these pirates also really let Byron understand what is truly unscrupulous.

　　, being so close to the mainland, they would all go down and lead Byron and the others over. They were clearly at a disadvantage and launched an attack without any worries. These Nord bandits are really ordinary horrible and cunning lunatics!

　　 What's more terrible is that for these crazy guys, Byron and the others have no effective way to fight them.
