Movie World Im King Chapter 870 (2/2)
Second, although Brittany was assigned to the United Kingdom, the border of Brittany is bordered by all parts of France...If he really resembles Henry V asking for help, then he will be regarded as a traitor by the surrounding lords... …This is the worst.
In war, John V is not afraid to fight France-but he can't fight...
Even if France can't beat the British, it doesn't mean that Brittany can stand alone against the French army. If Brittany had such war potential, he would have declared independence long ago...
This--, really embarrassed the Duke of Brittany...
At this moment, John V suddenly saw Zhou Ye, who was sitting beside him, leisurely and contented, his eyes lit up... ”Mr. Zhou Ye, how many attendants did you bring on this tour of Europe?”
John V did not ask too much. As long as Zhou Ye brought about a thousand attendants, he would be worthy of the Valois dynasty... He estimated that even if it was a war, the Valois dynasty could gather 20,000 soldiers, then Even if there are too many, after all-France has just experienced the Hundred Years' War, and the land is devastated. Where are there so many soldiers...
Even though there are only more than 20,000 French soldiers, but-John V can't even make up more than 20,000 soldiers... There is no way, medieval Europe is a bad era.
”Haha...” Zhou Ye understood John V's thoughts in seconds. He smiled and said, ”Your Excellency, do you want to hire my attendants to participate in this war?”
”...Yes, Mr. Zhou Ye! I want to hire your entourage to help me win this war.” John V has been unable to figure out why Zhou Ye would know what he wants to do. He is full of heart now. The idea of how to deal with this coming war.”Is there a thousand of your attendants? Are they all powerful knights equipped with that kind of super armor?”
”...You...” Zhou Ye just wanted to refuse the employment of John V. After all-he was not interested in helping foreigners fight... But when he heard from the lady district, there was a sweet After the sound, he changed his mind instantly.”Of course no problem, Lord Duke, I can accept your employment, my attendants are not many, but-enough to help you win the war before you... But my asking price is not low...”
”Price is not a problem, Mr. Zhou Ye...How about your employment price, ten silver coins a day?” John V asked tentatively, this price is not low anymore, you know, even in the famous Switzerland The mercenaries are only five silver coins a day per person.
”Haha...” Zhou Ye smiled slightly and shook his head, ”Don't worry...We Orientals are different from you Westerners. After we help you win this war, let's discuss the price issue again...”
”Um...” After John V pondered for a moment, he finally nodded and agreed to Zhou Ye's request.
Of course he knew that Zhou Ye didn’t talk about prices now. It wasn’t that Zhou Ye was a good man and helped him win this war for free, but that Zhou Ye wanted more...
But does John V have a choice at this moment?Unless he is willing to ask the King of England for help, he has no choice...
Now go to Switzerland to hire mercenaries there?Are you funny?What era do you think it is?It is estimated that the Principality of Brittany has been wiped out...
It can be said that John V, who has no other way, is ready to be slaughtered by Zhou Ye...Of course, there is also a slight fluke in his heart. It is best that Zhou Ye's attendants are in this war. , Fight to death with the French army...In this way, maybe he won't even have to pay for the final employment expenses...
How could King John V's careful thoughts be hidden from Zhou Ye?
But Zhou Ye didn't care. No one could ever rely on him...not to mention just a duke of the Duchy of Brittany, what about even the emperor of the empire?I want to rely on him...hehe...
The two negotiated employment matters, and then asked the clerk to initial an employment agreement...The scene became lively again, and the big stone in John V's heart finally fell to the ground.
With great interest, he introduced Zhou Ye to the parade under the city...
At this moment, the corpses of the dozen or so knights killed by Sonya and their horses were cleaned up...maybe the guards, or the knights' retinue. In short, the stopped parade began again. ...
This time, no knights are leading the front...Although there are still a lot of knights off the court, they are already scared by Sonia...No one wants to join the parade...
At the forefront of the parade, there are actually elegant ladies in dress, and in the middle are various jugglers... followed by serfs and businessmen watching the excitement...
Although there were no knights riding high-headed horses to clear the way, those who participated in the parade still had a lot of fun, as if the massacre had not happened just now...

Beatorice was awakened by the sound of steel collision. She rubbed her haunted eyes and cast her gaze out of the window. She was using the intensity of the sun outside the window to guess the current time...
In this era, clocks and watches have indeed been invented, but-because of the unqualified metallurgical technology, the size of the clocks in this era is simply touching...Moreover, the price is very expensive and easily damaged...
