Heroes of Silver Moon

Chapter 315: : Old King's Means (24)

In the rugged hills, the private army of the Hawke family is walking with the third army.

It has been a year since the last cleanup, and in the Valdai hills, the figures of barbarians began to appear faintly again.

But in front of this vast army of more than 50,000 people, no barbarian tribe dared to jump out and die.

Valery led Xi Weier and other retainers on steeds and walked slowly under the protection of the army, and then the retainers in charge of the front army came galloping with a team of cavalry and a few people dressed as merchants.

"Lord Earl", when he came to Valeri, the retainer quickly dismounted and saluted Valeri.

"What's going on?" Valery asked with a frown, looking at the retainer and the businessmen he brought over.

He just wanted to rush to the capital as soon as possible now, but he didn't want to make any more troubles.

"My lord, we met these people in front. They said that their goods were robbed by barbarians. If we can help them get back the goods, then they will be very grateful!"

Looking at these businessmen as well, the retainer said with a strange expression.

These people felt too strange to him, they didn't look like businessmen at all.

"Well, I feel sympathy for what happened to you"

Looking at these businessmen, Valeri said with a stern expression: "But, we are going to fight now, so we don't have time to take care of your affairs!"

With a wave of his hand, Valery prepared to let his retainers drive away these businessmen.

Seeing that Valery was about to drive them away, the leading businessman said calmly, "Master Earl, don't you want to know what we are transporting?"

"Bold, the Earl told you to leave, how dare you talk too much!" After the businessman finished speaking, a retainer immediately scolded.

In this world, when nobles like them speak, there is no room for civilians to intervene.

After the vassals finished their reprimand, they prepared to let their soldiers drive away these businessmen forcibly.

"Lord Earl, I advise you to listen." Facing the soldiers who were about to forcibly drive them away, the leading businessman said with a stern expression, still unhurriedly.

"Well", seeing how tough this businessman was, Valery's eyes narrowed, and with a wave of his hand, he stopped the soldiers who were about to forcefully drive them away.

something wrong!

Looking at these businessmen, Valery felt an unusual aura.

"Oh, what are the goods you are transporting?" Valery asked curiously as he kept guessing where these people came from.

Facing the earl who is himself, he is neither humble nor overbearing. These people are definitely not ordinary businessmen.

The businessman in the lead breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Valery was finally willing to listen to him. If he couldn't complete that mission, then going back would be enough for him.

"Leather armor, two thousand sets", the calm words of the businessman shocked Valery and his party instantly.

Leaving aside how this group of merchants dared to buy and sell so many armors, just talking about these two thousand sets of leather armors is not something that the Hawke family can spy on.

In the market, a set of ordinary leather armor can be sold for at least 20 gold coins. In other words, these two thousand sets of leather armor are worth at least 40,000 gold coins.

More than 40,000 gold coins, what kind of concept is this!

There is only so much wealth in the treasure house accumulated by the Hawke family for more than a thousand years!

But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that there are exactly two thousand armed militiamen without armor in the Hawke family.

Although they are armed militias, these members of the Hawke family have also been on the battlefield many times. Once they can all wear leather armor, they are almost no different from the regular army.

In other words, if the Hawke family obtains two thousand sets of leather armor, the fighting power of the private army of the Hawke family will at least increase by three or four times.

For the Hawke family who are about to fight, this is simply a timely gift!

However, at this moment, everyone looked at these businessmen with strange eyes.

What a coincidence! In this world, such a coincidence is impossible!

"Which chamber of commerce do you belong to!" After a long silence, Valery asked solemnly.

He wanted to test these merchants to see if their origins were really what he thought.

"Heh, don't worry about this. If the Earl is willing to help us, I can make the decision and rent the two thousand sets of leather armor to the Lord for the time being."

The leading businessman also knew that Valery was trying to test them, so he cleverly avoided the question.

Hearing the merchant's answer, Valery fell into silence for a while.

In fact, he himself knew very well that the businessmen in front of him were probably sent by the royal family!

He was still wondering before, obviously the crown prince promised that the Hawke family would win, but the royal family didn't make any movement from the beginning to the end.

But now it seems that the support of the royal family is here!

"Heh, as a long-standing nobleman, how can we not help the common people when they are in trouble!" After the silence, Valery suddenly laughed heartily.

Although I know that this time, the Hawke family has been treated as a pawn, but the matter has come to this point~www.readwn.com~ Can they still not accept the royal family's funding?

Accepting the royal family's funding, they will go to war with the Hood family, but not accepting the royal family's funding, they will still go to war with the Hood family.

The army of the Hood family is far superior to that of the Hawke family. If the soldiers do not have armor, even if they win this time by luck, the army of the Hawke family will suffer heavy losses.

With these two thousand sets of leather armor, not only can the soldiers of the Hawke family greatly reduce casualties, but it can also quickly improve the combat effectiveness of the army and increase the chances of winning for the Hawke family.

Therefore, accepting these two thousand sets of leather armor is the best choice for their Hawke family.

Upon receiving Valéry's answer, the leading businessman also had a gratified smile on his face.

It seems that Earl Hauke ​​is still very sensible!

Let a group of soldiers protect these merchants, and under Valery's order, the army of the Hawke family also got busy.

The army of the Hawke family was in a marching state before, but now that Muran is about to switch to a combat state, there is bound to be a short period of chaos.

The soldiers who stayed behind were arranged to guard the supplies, and then under the direction of the merchant, Valery commanded the soldiers who had already entered the combat state to rush towards the destination quickly.

Didn't I hear that the barbarians took their leather armor away?

If they went late and all the leather armor was given away by the barbarians, then they would be at a loss!

Under the leadership of the merchants, more than 2,000 fierce and murderous soldiers rushed to the scene of the incident quickly.

After arriving at the scene of the incident, Valery took a closer look.

Whoa! Good guy, a dozen goblins pointed at by spears, trembling, "surrounded" a large convoy of hundreds of people.

Then, there is no more! The Hawke family got paid smoothly.
