Ergao read the contents of the contract. wwW!QuAnBen-XIaoShuo!comM was relieved. It was the first time he watched "Magic Jinshixing" for fear that there would be legendary soul control, master and servant requirements, etc.
As a result, Salin gave his followers excellent contract conditions. From now on, Salin will cover all his high-end equipment and armors. For ordinary battles, he doesn't have to take care of them at all. There are lower-level people in charge. And he only needs to protect Salin, or lead the army to fight, and do his best to practice, and there is no need to worry about other interpersonal interactions.
Guxin's talents are all reflected in battle, but as the leader of the regiment, he spent all his time socializing with the nobles and making a living for his men. When he dropped his blood on the contract, he suddenly felt much lighter.
Rex also signed a contract with a magician, and then arranged for more than 20,000 mercenaries from outside the city to enter the city.
The mercenaries left Gu Xin's people alone with Salin and let the rest of the mercenaries follow Rex's army. The mercenaries did not become suspicious. After all, those who later joined the Dragon Slaying Mercenary Group knew about the Dragon Slaying Mercenary Group. The family members all went to Metatrin City.
The gift from His Majesty Emperor Downey of Scotia is really light, but the more than 20,000 people are what Rex urgently needs. Moreover, these mercenaries were ostracized in Scotia, and before leaving, they even had to use their savings to buy Downey's equipment. These mercenaries were well-equipped, but they were obtained with accumulated wealth, and were not a reward from Downey at all.
After failing in Scotia, the mercenaries assigned to Rex did not stick together. They were broken up by Rex's people and assigned to the new military camp. They were trained again without any resistance. Anyway, it’s much easier to make money here than in Scotia. At least the food in Rex's army is good.
Salin and Rex discussed this matter again. After all, two eighth-level magicians and a silver sword master were very powerful forces, and Rex was also afraid that there was something wrong with them.
Because Salin had planned to deal with Count Sufonso, he made a detailed study of the relationship between the composition of Scotia's nobles and the mercenaries, and was not too worried about this matter. He knew people like Gusin very well. In Scotia, everything depends on money, even among nobles.
Gu Xin is not good at communication and cannot bribe nobles. If he is stationed in a local area, he will inevitably be suppressed everywhere. If good missions are not received, the location will always be changed. Once the business becomes successful, it will be occupied by another mercenary group.
Gu Xin was a Silver Sword Master who only advanced two years ago. Before, it was very difficult for a Black Iron Sword Master to support a mercenary group.
In Scotia, the strong are respected and money speaks for itself. It's a miracle that people like Gu Xing survive. Qin Yin's so-called aristocratic demeanor, the benevolence of the aristocrats, the pride of the aristocrats, all this. None exist in Scotia. Even the Tangulas laugh at the vulgarity of the Skocyanians.
Gathered between two magicians and controlled by a contract, it is very safe.
Don't talk about these two. Magicians, most magicians are not very understanding of the world. The teacher of the two wizards probably had some savings, but even after his death, he asked his two apprentices to persist until the eighth level before running out of money.
What makes people worry is the mercenaries. There are no very powerful people among the mercenaries. There is only a fourth-level mage and several quasi-sword masters in the dragon-slaying mercenary group. This kind of strength is similar to that of a flag regiment of Rex's army. It is barely above average among mercenary groups of level seven or above.
Among the mercenaries who were dispersed, there were most likely secret agents from Scotia. These people come from different mercenary groups. The smallest mercenary group only has seven people, and they don't understand each other. It's too easy to sneak in a few subtleties. But Rex can't do without these people. She urgently needs ready-made soldiers. If she refuses these mercenaries, it will have a bad impact and cause people who originally wanted to join her to become a wait-and-see state. She and Salin have more than 20 million people in their territory. Recruitment is not a problem. The problem is that when they get married in April, they have to deal with the Yunliu people's attack.
Yunliu people have already expanded the small city on the seaside. Prepare to be stationed for a long time. There is no point in attacking now. We can only wait for Salin to develop a way to deal with his fleet, which can cut off the Yunliu people's escape route and change the situation of the battle.
Now the Yunliu people's logistics are constantly delivering supplies to attack the new city, and the cost is also very high. Rex's soldiers were not as numerous as Yunliu, so they could only take a defensive stance.
In the end, it was Salin who came up with the idea. He was from Skochia and knew that the Skochians were famous and wealthy, so he suggested that Rex form a new corps, with numbers starting from 100 and going forward.
Because the more powerful the mercenary group is, the higher the level number is. If the 100th regiment is a regular army, it will feel a bit eclectic, but if it is a mercenary, it will be very satisfied.
After King Rex issued the order to establish a large legion, the mercenaries were completely restrained. Practice with the new recruits, and those who perform well will be given priority to join the 100th Legion.
Qin Yin's basic organization is a battalion. Each battalion has 10,000 main troops and about 5,000 to 15,000 auxiliary troops. During field battles, auxiliary troops were not dispatched, only defending and attacking the city. Auxiliary soldiers will only spend two to build a large-scale army with new strength. A legion has 20,000 hearts. There are different types of soldiers. There is no difference between main force and auxiliary soldiers.
The decision of Rex and Saleen allowed more stragglers to come to seek refuge. Rex now had money and equipment. What was important was that he had enough food to support his troops. Most of these people who took refuge were the defeated soldiers of Garulan, and there were also mercenaries looking for opportunities in Garulan.
The situation in Garulan is too complicated. There are a huge number of unorganized small armies, and various countries are recruiting them.
Salin and Rex did not expect that taking in the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group would have such a big impact. Daliang City originally had 90,000 elite soldiers, and about 70,000 auxiliary recruits. After taking in the people brought by the Dragon Slayer Mercenary Group, the number was close to 200,000. Then, people came one after another, and it was close to 100,000. This is still the result of screening. With the addition of craftsmen and military dependents, the city now has a population of almost more than 400,000, and at this rate of recruitment, it is not a problem to exceed 500,000.
What makes the two of them most gratified is that there are many more low-level mages in the city.
Most of these low-level mages were trained by Rex. After leaving Kushui County, they spread throughout Qinyin. There are also some intermediate mages who entered Alchemy City and have now returned to Kushui County.
Not only did Rex have a mage coming to cast, but Salin also had a cast. News came from Metatlin City that more than two hundred necromancers had escaped from the Tangulas Empire, the Yunliu Empire and the Scotia Empire and defected to Metatlin.
These necromancers all knew that Metatrin City was hosting them. There were a large number of undead there, and mages could move around with their undead in the city at will.
Now the Tanggulas Empire is arresting necromancers on a large scale, and people from the Inquisition have also sneaked into other empires to carry out assassinations. These mages have fled to Metatrin one after another. When they heard that the king was fighting in Bitter Water County, almost all of them rushed here.
Because Shika promised a pound of good conditions to come to Daliang City to fight, and after gaining military exploits, the necromancer's undead flames would have a chance to be purified.
The quality of the undead flames of most necromancers is not high, and it is difficult to advance. If they can be purified again, the advancement of these necromancers will become easier. As for how to purify death and spiritual flames, that is a matter of Wing Skeleton. Anyway, after he absorbed the soul fire of the Undead King, he must be very good at doing this. There is no doubt that he is among these necromancers. The latest news is that a great necromancer has appeared next to King Metatrin. Therefore, these necromancers believed in Sika's words.
Mu En still didn't know that he had acted as a beacon. At the Bone Castle, he followed Isabella's guidance and the Winged Skull's training every day to learn undead magic and swordsmanship.
This dual skill is more difficult than fellow practitioners of elemental magic and swordsmanship. Fortunately, the winged skeleton has the necromantic flame that is most suitable for Mu En. Mu En can become a first-level necromancer very quickly.
What Isabella asked Mu En was how to integrate the two skills without conflicting with each other. This is the skill of terrazzo. Mu En is now a senior swordsman, so he has to slow down his sword skills and slowly advance his undead magic skills.
Qin Yin brought too many supplies, and at least half of them had to be detained in Kushui County. The officials in Daliang City were a little surprised by the congratulatory gifts sent by the nobles. When the prince formed an army to go on an expedition, he did not see these nobles being so enthusiastic.
Rex sighed in his heart that his father did not only rely on force to convince the local nobles. Even though my father is dead, there are still many people who appreciate his benefits.
Basically, the people who gave the most gifts were the nobles close to Emperor Chanak. The gift list would also have cipher text that Rex could understand, and some important supplies. None of it is written directly on it.
Rex also understood that these people were optimistic about themselves. Once their territory expanded and became an empire, the descendants of these people would have another way to advance. It's just that this kind of high-risk investment must be done for the sake of my father's face. Those nobles just took a gamble, and even if they lost anyway, they would still be paying a favor to the dead emperor.
After sufficient manpower, Rex Vertical Shear established a small town east of Daliang City. This small town is only fifteen miles away from Daliang City and is close to the mountains. In this mountainous area, there are two paths leading to Kushui County. They are the shortest roads between Kushui County and Daliang City.
It was precisely because of this road that Rex was able to quickly capture a relatively fertile piece of land in Garulan and build Daliang City. After the expansion of Daliang City, all materials were shipped from Kushui County. The straight-line distance is only more than 400 miles, and if you take the mountain road, it is only more than 600 miles.
The only trouble now is that there are more people taking refuge, and there are also many problems in management. The quality of the recruits was not good, and fights were common. Fortunately, the number of Rooks mages was large and they could suppress them.
However, when the sewers were being rebuilt, a magic apprentice discovered a passage that had been punched through under the city wall, which made Rex fearful. D! ~!
