Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 287. The desperate plea of ​​the businessman

Hearing the report of the desert robber, many businessmen in the hall turned to look at Kant.

Unfamiliar troops with bad visitors.

If it has nothing to do with this salt trade, then they don't believe it, maybe some nobles are dissatisfied with Kant's acquisition of the salt mine, trying to come to this powerful force!

This is often a means of intimidation by established aristocrats against newcomers.

The same applies now.

Thinking of those nobles who used to deal in dwarf salt, their business was impacted by the emergence of desert salt. The two sides were equal to competitors, and they still did not ease in the slightest. Competing peers with direct conflicts of interest!

But Kant's desert salt is more profitable.

The distance from the human kingdoms is closer, the transportation is more convenient, the taste is not bad, and the output is increasing day by day.

It is strange that there is no response when the important way to make money that is used to maintain the family has been cut off!

Now these businessmen look to Kant.

Also testing.

They are businessmen, and the so-called honor and dignity are not as exciting as profit, so they can humbly express their deference to Kant, because they do not understand Kant's true strength.

Maybe you can see it now.

Someone came to provoke, Xuan He's own force, with a strong coercion of Kant, the baron who was about to rise.

No matter how Kant responds, they get the answers they want.

But if you lose, the final consequences will definitely not be friendly. These merchants will still maintain their obedience, but when they come next time, the caravan guards will be more and more elite, and these merchants will bring benefits. He took back his once low-mindedness and became even more arrogant than the nobles!

But for Kant,

His face was calm, but mockery flashed in his eyes.

He's not a rising baron.

It is the lord of the Naron Desert who has risen!

Facing the inquiring eyes of these businessmen, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, with obvious disdain and ridicule. He didn't explain too much, just indifferently instructed: "Rolf, you'll deal with it."

"clear!"

Rolf behind the door nodded immediately.

"Treat it beautifully." Kant continued.

As if thinking of something, he instructed Rolf: "Don't kill them all, our salt mine has to increase production, and there is a huge shortage of salt-digging slaves. Since they are here, let's stay and try to see if they can do it. Let's work."

"Understood." Rolfe had a grim smile on his face: "They are very competent for this job."

Kant nodded and waved lightly: "Go."

"Everyone, come with me!"

Rolfe saluted respectfully, and issued orders at the same time.

The 50 Salander riders who were originally standing by the wall in the hall immediately rushed out, including the three Swadian royal knights beside Kant, and the cavalry that quickly gathered in the tent outside.

The entire Central Post seems to have become a point of order for dispatching troops, and this cavalry unit is gathering.

120 Salander riders.

220 desert bandits.

And the three Swadian royal knights personally led by Rolfe!

The overall number of troops is only 350 people, but the combat power is at the elite level, especially the three Swadian royal knights who have extraordinary power and belong to the level of the great knights, how can they be compared with ordinary cavalry.

Even the 120 Salander riders are qualified to be vassal knights under ordinary nobles!

But those businessmen don't know.

They couldn't imagine how powerful these cavalry were. Unparalleled in the world of mystery

After all, there are a total of 600 unfamiliar troops coming. If you want to slaughter them all in this desert, it is not impossible.

They do have caravan escorts.

But these caravan guards can at most disperse some ordinary robbers and robbers.

Confronting these 600 absolutely murderous cavalry is absolutely self-defeating!

So businessmen began to talk about it.

They whispered, with a bit of anxiety in their voices, and looked at Kant a little bit more directly. After all, Kant now seems to be guarded by only 10 strange knights and 10 ordinary sword and shield infantry.

They were talking about the Swadian Royal Knights, and the Swadian Light Infantry.

Kant's face was calm.

The sneering smile at the corner of his mouth still exists.

Seeing them whispering, as if they were discussing something, he slowly reached out and picked up the silver cup prepared for him on the table, sipped the date palm syrup, and said lightly, "If you don't mind, I would like to invite everyone to the roof of the station. , to enjoy a farce."

"This...but...the cavalry that came..." The merchants looked at each other, but they seemed a little reluctant, and they were all anxious to leave.

"Come with me."

Kant gave them no choice.

Directly drank the sugar water in the silver cup, stood up and walked towards the stairs of the station.

"Boooooooooo"

The sound of the sword being unsheathed sounded.

The actions of the 10 Swadian light infantry were very rude, their eyes fixed on these businessmen, and they were very unkind.

But those royal knights were much more graceful. One by one, they lifted the visors in front of the full-covered plate helmets, watching these businessmen stretch out their hands, smiling but saying in a non-rejection tone, "Gentlemen, please."

"This...this...this..."

Those businessmen were even more hesitant.

They were all frightened and timid, looked at each other, and both saw the hesitation in each other's eyes.

No one moved forward to follow in Kant's footsteps.

They were all afraid, if Kant took them hostage and negotiated with each other, it would be bad.

Which nobles did the 600 cavalrymen from outside belong to? This is a question, but according to the unspoken rules behind the rampant bandit gangs in the Principality of the Lions, there are noble forces behind them. If they are held hostage, it is true It will make the opponent throw a rat.

Although there are battles between nobles, there is definitely also an alliance, such as marriage and alliance. Now that the cavalry is moving quickly to this post, if a hostile noble wants to disrupt this trade, they will definitely kill them all!

Whether they go up or not, these businessmen feel their hearts tremble.

A wave of despair appeared in everyone's heart.

"Gentlemen."

A royal knight spoke with a solemn tone: "Please don't make Baron Kant wait too long, okay?"

The 10 Swadian light infantrymen also stared at these merchants, the Germanic swords in their hands flickering with cold light, coupled with their slightly unkind eyes, it is estimated that the moment they were rejected, they rushed over to cut people!

"Yes, it is…"

The merchants nodded desperately and walked towards the stairs.

Coming to the top soon.

Kant was standing in the corner looking south.

The group of merchants walked over tremblingly, also looking at the wind and sand rising from the south, and the cavalry riding on war horses at a constant speed in the yellow dust.

He was wrapped in linen robes, and his horses were also covered with linen burqas. 7th month sequence

This is breathable clothing for sun protection.

But those riders can still see the looming armor, the chain armor that appears as the war horse runs and rises, with the long sword in his hand, and the long spear hanging on the side of the war horse, it looks like an elite!

Absolutely the level of knight attendants!

The well-trained appearance makes these businessmen take a breath!

Knight attendant.

He is simply a strong rider who has been trained as a knight.

Since childhood, he has been trained in riding, spear, swordsmanship and melee combat, and he has also learned aristocratic etiquette part-time.

Basically, the troops formed by these knights are the basic force of the knights to form the knights. They also belong to the main force of the nobles leading the troops to fight, and they are also the backbone of the battle sequence of the Principality of Lions!

Whether a country is strong or not depends on how many knights it has and how many knights it can summon.

If the knight is killed, the knight attendant can make up for it.

And for those centuries-old noble families to measure their own strength, they can also be measured by knights and servants.

Powerful noble families can always cultivate a large number of excellent and elite knight attendants. As their own strength, they will fight for themselves in the north and south, and achieve great results in the battle sequence of the Principality of Lions.

With the knights and great knights of your own family, it is a complete cavalry unit!

Merchants are very knowledgeable.

Their legs are trembling now, and they even feel the urge to urinate between their legs, so scared they are about to urinate!

"This is... this is... is... a unit of knight attendants!"

"No... those are all knight attendants... they are the troops of high-ranking nobles..."

"Lord Baron... you have offended... who have you offended..."

The merchants were all chattering.

His eyes widened, his eyes filled with despair.

The 600 knight attendants rushed to this inn in full armor. The terrifying power almost destroyed their confidence. Even many merchants from the small nobles felt paralyzed, and they could only stand by supporting each other with the people next to them.

But the despair in their eyes can't be polished away, and they really feel like they are going to die.

They guess the conclusion.

This is clearly a high-ranking noble, who wants to destroy Kant's power!

How could it be that the comers are not good? Of the 600 knight attendants, there will definitely be 30 knights, and maybe there may be peak-level knights. As long as they are inspired by the great knights, they can understand the existence of extraordinary power.

How could this be a bad visitor.

This is the rhythm of war!

"Quiet."

Kant smiled, turned his head slightly, and looked at the terrified businessmen behind him. The mockery at the corner of his mouth became more and more intense: "Knight servants? Oh, in your hearts, is this the strongest?"

The merchants couldn't answer, they were already breathing rapidly, watching the army of knights get closer and closer.

His face became more and more desperate.

Kant shook his head.

There's not much to say about this bunch of rubbish businessmen.

Standing on the spot, watching Rolfe leading many cavalry to meet him, he took the silver cup handed over by the light infantry next to him, sipped the warm sugar water in it, and said lightly, "The banquet has begun."

Beside him, the Swadian Royal Knight inflated and blew the item that Kant had just handed him.

A dull and long horn sounded.

"woo" 8)
