Rise In Calradia

　　"Gold and silver,

　　 Spread my bed all over---"

　　Byron counted the gold coins, dressed in a dressing gown, humming triumphantly.

　　 Today at noon, he completed the last step in the Dehrim plan, successfully invested in the only private bow-making workshop in the city, and reached a supply agreement with the army based on the relationship with the Baron Sith.

　　The craftsmen began to make a large number of bows and arrows because of the order. The stock is sufficient, and it is already necessary to use a carriage to pull it.

　　 Even though the hottest period of summer has come, and every day needs to buy ice cubes in the cellar at a high price to cool off, Byron is still full of fighting spirit.

　　 In this period of more than a month, he completed the acquisition of six workshops in different industries with sufficient cash. Even the Golden Hand family was a little unbearable and sent someone to remind him to control the development.

　　 Byron pretended to be courteous and dealt with the past, secretly building an intelligence network to find a handle.

　　Maybe the cooperation between the two parties can produce a good win-win effect, but if Byron wants to seek better development, it is very necessary to suppress the other party.

　　 In addition to commercial activities, he also did everything possible to expand his mercenary force, and instilled a concept in them:

　　 "My parents are born to me, and Byron is rich in me."

　　 The slogan is something, people will take it seriously if you shout too much. Over time, these soldiers really loyal to Byron and used it for him. Of course, the premise is that Byron can always come up with money to ensure that their needs are met.

　　 Looking at the entire Kingdom of Swadia, and even the entire continent of Calradia, perhaps only Byron’s Peony Mercenary Team is so keen on recruiting new recruits. For experienced mercenary captains, the training period of recruits is long, morale is generally low, and it is very easy to hang up when they fight, and investment in recruits is basically not worth the loss.

　　 However, there is a system behind Byron. Although this golden finger is always invisible, it is easy to use at critical times. After an upgrade, the proficiency of those recruits will immediately rise sharply. The training results that the army can only achieve in a year will only take one or two months in Byron, and it will be even faster if there is combat experience.

Moreover, after Byron's wealth has increased significantly, many experienced and equipped mercenaries will take the initiative to come to take refuge. Although some of them have a less pure background, and some come here because of crimes, Byron is willing. Accept them as long as they promise not to betray Byron and fight bravely.

　　 Byron’s dinar was consumed a lot, and the corresponding was the addition of new military forces.

　　 The previous male refugees and 2 farmers who wanted to be soldiers were upgraded to hired sentries, while the 13 female refugees, except for the pregnant woman, all became military women, and the pregnant woman was also defined as a peasant woman.

　　I still have a little doubt about why the woman was trained, Eleon, but Jamila is very supportive of it.

　　 Byron certainly has his own ideas. These women have suffered a lot of bullying, and they also have a certain sense of gratitude for Byron. The most important thing is that these women can not only do better than men, but also because of their previous experience, they are happy to kill the men who want to attack them with their weapons.

　　 These 12 women with the army, Byron equipped them with hunting crossbows eliminated by light infantry, and let Bandak teach them how to use them. Some women were better at shooting crossbows than Byron.

　　 In addition, those low-cost pickaxes with a certain armor-breaking effect were also issued to them. These women are not equipped with armor, so they must have countermeasures when facing armored enemies.

　　 There are many mercenaries joining Byron, there are 31. Among them, 15 were judged to be mercenary sentries, 11 were judged to be caravan guards, and 5 were mercenary infantry.

　　 Byron’s dinar has shrunk to 5000, and the dominance is not enough.

　　 Now the number of Byron’s troops exceeds 180, and even if Byron has read some books about commanding soldiers and increased his command limit by 30, he can only lead 150 people.

　　 Although Manid and Fatis have taken many people to run business, he can still feel the consequences of exceeding the upper limit.

　　 There are too many soldiers, conflicts and frictions, supply problems, and the troubles caused to nearby villages and farms, all make him tired.

　　 In accordance with Bandak's disciplinary requirements in the Rhodok army, as well as some of Eleon's military advice, he issued a simple military order, the effect is not bad, at least those annoying things are a lot less.

And beyond imagination, with the basic military order and discipline, Byron’s dominance has a "+50" sign behind it. This is an additional bonus, and it will only be implemented when the military order can be implemented. Appears, giving Byron an extra amount of dominance.

　　 This surprised Byron, and he began to study what good ways to manage the army could bring to this world in his era.

　　 But after thinking about it for a while, and combining the status quo, Byron felt a sense of powerlessness.

　　 After all, the awakening of national consciousness in this era is very low. Knights sometimes regard glory as higher than the country, and the low-level civilians have no concept of defending their homes. If this lord is good, support him. If it is not good, go to other places.

　　 And Byron is, after all, a mercenary captain, not a noble lord. His words lack coercive force~www.novelmt.com~, so many methods of governing the army for later generations are not easy to implement.

　　 However, Byron still applied some of the methods of later generations about physical training to the training of recruits, such as the early start lap. Many mercenaries were puzzled about this behavior, and the recruits complained a lot. However, Elaine and Bandak still support them. They don’t understand the meaning of this, but Bandak thinks that this allows soldiers to ensure physical fitness during non-combat periods, and Elaine believes that this is an aspect of the regularization of the army. Step, praise Byron's foresight.

　　 In addition, Byron also ordered a uniform red and black striped burqa. Although he is not qualified to paint his own badge on the burqa, it is still possible to simply paint a peony mark.

　　 After the number of troops increased, sending orders became an important issue. For this, Calradia already has relevant examples for reference.

　　 The sound of horns, the waving of flags, and the eye-catching decorations on the officers can all guide the troops to march and attack. A well-trained unit can complete a movement change with just one instruction. In this era, reaching this level can already be regarded as a disciplined unit.

　　 Byron's thoughts have greatly expanded since then. He began to write in his notebook many management methods he could think of, and possible future inventions, and began to figure out how to realize these ideas.

　　 He began to find bards to write military songs for his troops that would ignite fighting spirit, and he also began to secretly purchase high-purity charcoal, high-quality sulfur, and saltpeter, which was already expensive. He also bought another relatively remote small farm outside the city, where he can start his "little invention" according to a recipe that he can still remember in his mind.

　　 It is said that the Salanders have already made something similar, but Byron is not too late to start.
