Chapter 633 (2/2)
Compared with sending people to suppress bandits, it is far less convenient to hire regular troops from the line of defense, which is safe and efficient.
For these bandit suppression tasks, fractureblood Castle usually attaches great importance to it. It not only sends elite soldiers, but also asks for a low price.
The reason why they did this is not because they regarded themselves as just messengers to maintain the peace of the alliance, but because they found other interests in it.
Compared with the employment payment, if the bandits' nests can be destroyed directly, a lot of booty can be recovered from them, which can be directly put into their waist pockets.
Even if the bandits themselves did not hoard any wealth, if they were captured alive, it would also be a fortune for the blood castle on the fracture.
The source of their troops has always been a big problem, especially in this super large battle, after a large number of casualties, it is in urgent need of a large number of soldiers to replenish.
In the past, they were passively waiting for other lords and nobles to send them.
This time they took the opportunity to capture themselves.
Of course, out of respect for local lords and nobles, these bandits are usually put into their hands for trial.
If the crime is serious, they will be sent to the border and escorted away by mercenaries from the blood castle.
If the crime is light, it will be handed over to the local lords and nobles. It is only in terms of employment payment that further needs to be added.
In other words, it's worth the money of the local lords and nobles to hire regular soldiers of the blood castle.
Most of them were ferocious people, and the blood castle at the fracture was willing to accept them. Most local lords and nobles did not mind, or even welcomed them.
Otherwise, if it is handed over to them, most of them will be hanged.
Pay for a corpse, and they won't do this at a loss.
For a while, the mercenary industry in the blood castle of the fracture was flourishing.
The big and small bandits of Byron alliance are in danger one by one.
Or gold basin wash hands, anonymity, become honest and obedient people, no longer dare to take the lead easily.
Or go to other places, such as joining the cormans family's pirate business, where the blood castle can't reach.
Or just pack it up and go straight to the blood castle on the fracture.
In any case, sooner or later, he could not escape the life of Rong Bian. He might as well run away and get some good treatment at that time.
It is said that the bandits who were forcibly captured had a hard time in the first few years. They not only had to undergo the most arduous training, but also carried out the most dangerous tasks in order to remove their banditry spirit and transform them into real soldiers.
Although the war just happened on the broken pulse defense line, it is rare in a hundred years.
But within the Byron League, the impact in a short period of time is still relatively limited - because the stretchs fought back the enemy.
Until when, broken pulse defense line lost, then is the world shaking.
This is a very ironic thing.
This year, the real attention of all is that Prince Laurie of the royal family of Lancelot turned 18 and officially took over the throne.
The Regent Princess Sophia, who had been regent for nearly 17 years, officially resigned as regent.The barons and nobles of the all Byron League went to varesta, the capital of the Kingdom, to participate in this unprecedented event.
Earl Shawn, the supreme ruler of Yongye army, was no exception. On the eve of Prince Laurie's accession to the throne, he personally took a fleet composed of a large number of merchant ships and sailed to varesta, the king's capital. Compared with the first time, the scale of this time was three times larger.
Because Sean had another mission to marry Princess sophilia when he went to vallesta.
Although this matter is certain, the process that should be followed must be followed.
It's about the royal family and Princess Sophia's own face.
Of course, the result of this is to further consolidate Sean's reputation as a nouveau riche.
Only the fleet led by the Yongye army was stopped in the river section 50 kilometers away from the Wangdu valaista.
”we are the fleet of the eternal night army, ready to go to the royal capital to offer the Royal Highness to Laurie's Royal Highness. This is the pass issued by the Royal Highness.” Marshal woody came forward in person.
Yongye army leader this time not only the equipment is luxurious, but also the built-in level is not low.
As for the fleet, the commander-in-chief of the Shuangjiang water army is the commander-in-chief.
The Lord's guard was led by Marshal Herbert, deputy commander of the fourth group army.
”I'm sorry, sir. Your Royal Highness has officially removed the Regent's post a week ago. The relevant documents issued by him have been invalidated. The security work of Wang Du has been taken over by our army. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the throne ceremony, all the large fleets are not allowed to reach the fifty kilometers of the king's capital.” The commander of the fleet who stopped Yongye's fleet leader was not humble and silent, and had no intention of releasing.
”Can we be flexible? You see, we are all merchant ships, only two warships, or full of cargo. ” Marshal Woody's smile was more like a philistine businessman than a soldier.
At present, the Shuangjiang water army basically has no combat task. Most of the time, they are escorting and escorting the merchant ships led by Yongye army to keep the river smooth. Naturally, woody is very familiar with many ways inside.
”No, our order is that no more than three large fleets are allowed to pass through, and warships are not allowed to approach the waters near Wangdu.” The commander-in-chief of the Baowang warship team replied with a blank face and a business like appearance.
”Woody, don't be difficult for this brother. Split the cargo on the ship. If you can use a small boat, you can use a small boat. If you can't, you can go to the nearest port and transport by land. You must be reasonable and legal.” Sean, who goes with the team, takes the initiative.
”Yes, Lord.” Marshal woody bowed to his command.
When the commander-in-chief of the Royal Guard, named Nelson, was sent away.
Marshal woody just had some doubts and asked, ”Lord knows that the other party is deliberately making trouble for us. Why should he follow their wishes?”
Although the Jacobs river has become more and more prosperous in recent years, a large number of commercial ships of various colors will be launched every year, which is no longer the case when the tripartite alliance was dominant.
But when it comes to large fleets, there are still few forces that can compete with Yongye army leader.
They set up a barrage here, obviously aimed at these families.
”The weather is going to change in varesta. It will be normal in the future. Just get used to it.” Sean said meaningfully, ”it's not for us. We're just incidental.”
Marshal woody didn't have a political vision at all. Listening to Sean, he said thoughtfully, ”they are guarding against the princess's fleet and her related allies?”
”Power can make a pure person no longer pure, especially when it is mixed with countless other interests.” Sean couldn't help but sigh.
I've heard for a long time that the contradiction between the princess school and the royalist school has become increasingly acute in the recent period of time of the royal family of Lancelot, but I didn't expect that the tension between the princesses and the royalists has reached this level.
Even though Princess Sophia has shown no nostalgia for her power, she can't stand others' disbelief.
When the power of the royalists grows stronger, they will naturally guard against Princess Sophia like a thief, so as to prevent her from suddenly repenting.
It is natural that those who take the route of Princess led by Yongye army will be implicated.
”Send a message to Marshall that our businesses in varesta are in a state of contraction and maintenance for the time being. Don't conflict with the baowangpai. Everything should be tolerant.” Sean issued the latest strategic task, ”at the same time, inform the president of the varesta chamber of Commerce, and let them pay attention to themselves. If they are not involved in this kind of power struggle easily, if they are not careful, they will be doomed, and it will be very difficult for me to protect them.”
Marshal woody said with a smile, ”Lord, you don't need to worry about them. These people from the bottom of the family have a keen sense of smell. They are afraid that their own family will be big and cause too many people to be envious. So their main force has already withdrawn from Wangdu and transferred to the surrounding secondary cities, leaving only a small part in Wallace tower, the capital city Even if something really happened to Wangdu, it would not hurt their roots. ””Everyone has their own way of survival. It's not pure luck that they have been struggling at the bottom for so many years.” Sean nodded. ”I'll leave it to you. I'll go to Wangdu first.”
