Rise In Calradia

Byron called his troops outside the city. Considering that following the noble troops to crusade against the robbers this time, showing weakness will not be of any benefit to him, so Byron decided to take most of his troops and go to participate in this conquest. .

　　 2 Vickia riders should bring them. Even if they are illegitimate children, they are also a noble force, and they can fight for Byron's face better than ordinary mercenaries.

Bring all 5 mercenary riders, and then 22 caravan escorts, 2 Vickia senior light infantry, 4 mercenary infantry, 10 Swadia light infantry, 3 untrained light infantry, 9 promise German light infantry, 3 Nord hunters and 4 mercenary crossbowmen. There are also the 20 newly joined militias, although they have little combat effectiveness, they can go and get mixed experience.

Byron left behind a few Nords, and a small team of serious militias to take care of the farm, lest there are idlers around, those who do not want to join Byron's mercenaries, and always like to cause trouble, Byron is very annoying. Those guys.

On the second day, Baron Sith came here to inspect Byron’s army. Byron’s infantry stood in two rows, and the cavalry mounted on horses in a single line. The Baron and Byron walked in front of the group, like The same as reviewing troops.

　　 "These soldiers are good. Their weapons look sharp and their armors are well maintained."

　　 The Baron Sith looked at the Vicia riders and mercenary cavalry who were riding on the horses, nodded and praised. Although the caravan guards at the back were very well-equipped, they were well maintained and full of energy. They looked much better than ordinary mercenaries, so the baron nodded and said yes.

　　 Before the infantry formation, Baron Sith looked at the Swadia light infantry, and said nothing, there are such soldiers in the army of the kingdom. However, he frowned when he saw the Nords. The reputation of Nords soldiers is not good in the south, but they are very powerful, so the Baron still recognized them.

　　 But when he saw the militiamen who had newly joined the mercenary group, his eyes flashed with disdain.

　　 "Are these people new here? They are not soldiers."

　　 After glanced at the 20 untrained militiamen who were wearing leather armor and standing there were really untidy, he asked Byron.

　　 "Indeed, they are new to join. They can take care of horses and do chores. I want them to see the real battle."

　　Byron replied a little embarrassed.

　　 "It doesn't matter, they are not soldiers, let them be careful not to die."

　　 Baron Sith said indifferently.

　　 "The number of people you sent is not too large, but I think there should be no problem."

　　 For Byron, a unit of less than a hundred men, Baron Sith didn't seem to be paying attention.

　　He is not one of those country barons who can't even make up twenty soldiers. He is responsible for training and leading the troops for Earl Claes. He has twice as many regular soldiers as Byron.

　　 The Baron Sith has left, he has no contempt for Byron, but he also has no respect.

　　Byron left Jamila to take care of his house, and took a few other heroes and selected troops to the meeting point prescribed by Earl Kleis, in a camp on the outskirts of Dherim.

　　 A long distance away, I saw the yellow-bottomed black bear flag of Earl Cles and the heavy cavalry wearing armor around the camp.

　　 The last time he passed the Swadia camp on the Rhodok border, Byron only saw the horses. But this time, they saw a knight in full armor.

　　 Every heavy cavalry was surrounded by one or two people to help him put on his armor and arm his horses. It would take them at least ten minutes just to wear these equipment. If it is a knight, the time will be longer.

　　Long chain armor shirt, cavalry breastplate, flat-top helmet, iron armguards, handguards, greaves composed of mail and plate armor, plus spurs. In those vulnerable areas, an additional layer of lock armor should be added. After all these are equipped, put on a linen burqa with a simple lord logo, tie a belt, hang a long sword and a mace, ride on a Swadi runner horse or hunter Horse, pick up a nearly 3 meter long cavalry, this is the full set of equipment for a standard Swadia heavy cavalry.

Every heavy cavalry has to go through at least 3 years of training before he can fully control his own weapons and equipment, and then he can sit on his horse steadily, and follow hundreds of other comrades with the same equipment, rushing towards him. The enemy uses rows of lances to break through the opponent's formation.

　　 These warriors with terrifying impact are the most important units in the Kingdom of Swadia. When the number of knights is not enough, the best of them will also be promoted to knights, leading the kingdom's iron cavalry to gallop in all directions.

　　 Thirty heavy cavalry, just less than 50 meters from Byron. They are all checking their equipment and comforting their horses, and they are indifferent to Byron and their arrival.

　　 "Come here, mercenary."

　　 The voice of a middle-aged man awakened Byron who was obsessed with observing the replacement of heavy cavalry equipment, and Fatis raised his head proudly.

In fact, for Fatis, whether they are Swadians, Vecyas, or Rhodoks, they are just a group of children vying for the relics of the ancient Karad Empire, and their nobles are also outdated by a group of former chiefs. . Because his hometown was in Suno, where the ancient Karad Empire flourished, they were proud of it.

　　 But even so, Fatis still found a place worthy of his admiration and respect in Swadia, that is, their mighty cavalry, the heavy cavalry force that went forward bravely and swept everything.

　　 Looking at Eleon who also stared at the cavalry, he smiled with satisfaction.

　　 Bandak squinted and curled his lips. He trusted the heavy crossbow more than the war horse.

Byron led the troops into the fenced camp full of tents, and the Swadia infantry, equipped with similar heavy cavalry, also stood up~www.novelmt.com~ looked at Byron’s force.

　　 They straightened their bodies and pressed their hands on the weapon handles at their waists, ready to fight at any time.

　　 "Byron of the Peony Mercenary salutes you, my lord."

　　Byron got off his horse and saw Baron Sith wearing a full set of shiny plate armor and the knight next to him who also wore plate armor, saluting respectfully.

　　 "Your troops are better than I thought, but remember to take care of them and don't let the guys behind the team drag you back."

　　 When the knight saw Byron, he replied for a while, and pointed directly at the militiamen who were curled up behind Byron's team, who were like soil buns, obviously not satisfied.

　　 But soon, he saw Fatis who had just got off the horse, his eyes lit up, opened his arms and walked over, and punched him before holding Fatis.

　　 "Look at who this is! It's been a long time, Fattis."

　　 The knight took off his helmet and greeted with a smile.

　　 "So are you, James."

　　Fatis smiled and punched back in the same way.

　　 "Your father has been looking for you."

　　 "It's a pity that I can never forgive myself. I won't go back, I can't go home with my sins."

　　 "...What a pity, Fattis, you could have been a knight..."

　　 Byron turned his head and listened to the conversation between the two of them. But at this time he felt that someone patted his shoulder, and then he realized his rudeness.

　　 "Sorry, my lord."

　　 "It doesn't matter, old friends want to meet, it's very attractive everywhere."

　　 The expression of Baron Sith remained unchanged, but his tone was milder than before.

　　 "Come with me, Earl Claes wants to see you."
