Rise In Calradia

Chapter 73: : The Land of the Prairie

   More than a dozen two-horse-drawn carriages, more than fifty cavalry fully armed, weapons ready to be sheathed, this is the lineup of Byron's troops.

   As for the heroes, he left Bandak to continue training the militia, and brought several other heroes to the Kujit Khanate. Fatis Eleon is an important combat force, Kress can detect the enemy, and her methods are no less than those of robbers. Yamila didn't actually use it, but Byron always felt that she would not suffer if she was doing business on her own.

   At the outpost made of rough stone on the border, the wolf flag was flying high, and underneath was a prairie horse that was reared nearby. In the sky, the falcon made a scream and swooped toward the guard post.

   The Kurgit soldiers in fur coats walked out of the sentry post, reached out their hands to catch the falcon, holding a short spear, and watching the passing travelers and merchants cross the border and gradually walked into the distance.

   Their task is to guard the border and issue police warnings when they find large-scale enemies. As for these businessmen and small groups of people who do not know their purpose, they do not need to take care of them.

   Merchants don’t need to care. Robbers are full of grassland, spies and the like. Naturally, there are people in cities and villages to clean them up. They don’t need to go to investigate.

   This is also a characteristic of the Kujit Khanate. The border basically ignores small groups of refugees. Therefore, many fugitives from other countries will seek refuge in the grasslands and escape the sanctions of their own laws, as long as they can survive on the grasslands.

But when Byron and the others arrived at the border, there was a sound of horns from the guard post. The nearby herders immediately put away the sticks for driving the sheep, drew the saber from the clothes, stepped on the prairie horse next to him, and ran. Byron they came.

   In less than a minute, more than a dozen hussars were walking around Byron with sabers and bows and arrows.

   This is also the consistent tactics of the Kujit light cavalry. They keep a distance, constantly harass, and finally cooperate with the Lancers to launch a general offensive.

   If Byron and the others make any dangerous moves, there will be more than a dozen bows and arrows shot over. Each of these prairie cavalry can ride and shoot, and everyone has a bow.

   They are both herders and soldiers. When their lord handed over the pastures on the border to them, they had to assume the obligation to guard the border.

   But fortunately, they only became vigilant because Byron and the others had too many armed men. After Byron made it clear and asked them to check the goods, the soldiers at the border let them pass. Of course, Byron also made a few silver coins.

  ‘’The vast prairie is endless.

  Kujit's wild wolf, wandering in the wilderness. ‘’

  Byron remembered a passage that he had read in the book, which was very suitable to describe the current landscape.

  The grassland stretches over from the horizon, and there is no way to see the side. Flocks of cattle and sheep wandering in the distance, like a green carpet dotted with a pattern of different colors and patterns, it is naturally beautiful. The wild wolves lie on the ground not far from them, looking up at the potential prey, seeming to be waiting for the opportunity.

In other parts of this grassland, "there are also many "wild wolves" looking for their prey. They don't need each other's flesh and blood to fill their stomachs, but use their wealth to satisfy their own desires. "

   For these ringing horses, Byron naturally stayed away. Although the opponent's equipment is not good, they are flexible and fierce, and if the number is sufficient, even the entire team of heavy cavalry will consume a lot of energy.

   Byron sent 10 caravan escorts and asked Kress to ride around. If someone who looks like a ringing horse shows up and wants to attack them, then you are welcome, just use a flying knife to greet them.

   But even so, Byron was still followed by a group of rattles for dozens of kilometers on the road. They rode behind them far behind, and once Byron sent someone over, they would immediately disperse. Because of them, Byron and the others always had at least five people to watch the night for the two days to avoid accidents.

   Until they arrived at the villages composed of tents and simple wooden houses, these rattles chose to leave.

   In the village here, Byron and the others were very well received by the locals. Just like nomads on the earth, the people in the village slaughtered the sheep after confirming that they were not hostile and gave them milk wine to drink.

   Byron is not used to the taste, but he is very satisfied with their enthusiasm.

Sitting in a yurt is similar to a yurt, but in a large tent that is relatively more inclined to settle. Byron and the elders here and the hundreds of households in charge of the local security army ate and drank, while Fatis and the others also ate the original juice. Original Kujit roast lamb.

   Looking at their black hair and yellowed skin, Byron suddenly felt a certain closeness. The style of their clothes and the tiny braids on their heads reminded him of the ethnic minorities in his hometown. So, when chatting with them, Byron was in a particularly good mood.

Of course, the elders did not entertain Byron for nothing. He photographed the iron tools on Byron’s car and the iron pot for cooking vegetables. These were not available on the grassland. He expressed his desire to buy. , And ask Byron to make a price.

   Although this village is a perennial settlement, Byron can see that the houses here are relatively simple and economic conditions are limited. Moreover, I just ate the food from others, so my mouth had to be softer, so Byron's price was about the same as the market price, and the elder happily paid.

   But it’s a little troublesome to count money. The Kujites also use silver, but in many cases it is not a silver coin~www.novelmt.com~ and silverware, as well as smelted silver nuggets, the purity is often uncertain. Therefore, Yamila and the elder weighed for a long time, and then estimated the purity before calculating the exact price of the items given by the elder.

  Byron hadn't really considered this before. If it were still like this in the city, it would be very troublesome to calculate the account. Therefore, he deliberately consulted with the elders and hundred households, and he was relieved when he learned that the city was also very welcome to the silver dinar coin, and its value was similar to that of other countries.

While eating and drinking, Byron also mentioned the recruitment of personnel to the elders. For the Kujit nomads who can ride and shoot well, Byron also wants to recruit a group so that he can organize an excellent light cavalry. The team, whether it is acting as a scout, or assaulting and harassing, is very useful.

However, the elders and Hundreds replied very firmly. Although the herdsmen often live in no fixed place, they have their own subordinates. Hundreds, Thousands, and Lord Nayan, each of whom needs enough leaders to pay for themselves. Cattle and sheep tax, set out to fight for them.

Population is the most important wealth for the Khan Khanate, so the elders in the village cannot be the masters, unless Byron gets the consent of the higher-level nobles, or even if those people are willing, he cannot take the local area. People are their own soldiers.

   However, the elders also revealed a message to Byron that the ransom broker was very active in the Kuji Khanate, and it was also a slave trader's work. Many of the people captured by the Kujites every year pass through their hands and are transported to the mines of Vijay and the coast of Nord. Whether you are a woman or a young adult, as long as you have money, you can get it from human traffickers in the city.

   In fact, many illegal things can be traded in this wolf country located in the prairie.
