Without hesitating for too long, Kant led the team to set off when the sun lightened at noon.
The camel caravan of 50 dromedary camels was different from when they came. They were full of various goods left by the merchants, such as ironware, agricultural tools, grain, etc. At present, the "Drehem" Castle is considered to be an urgently needed material.
And just behind the camel team, there are long hemp ropes, and more than 300 captives with bowed heads are tied in a string.
These captives will be the best workforce.
Kant said that all these captives were transported to the salt mines and became slaves to shovel salt, which was true.
In that desolate area, no commoner is willing to go there, even if they have a love for labor, they still have to rotate every month, otherwise the cruel and desolate saline-alkali land will drive them crazy.
Since they are captives, there are no so-called human rights.
They can't understand it.
As long as a small number of infantry are sent as guards, these captives can become the most well-behaved slaves.
Oh, maybe that's a bit of a misnomer.
It should be said that as long as these captives see the depths of the Nalun Desert and the endless salt flats and sand seas, they will understand that without the supplies Kant gave them, they would not be able to survive.
The cruel Nalun Desert can obliterate the strongest human beings in the endless sand sea.
The day is as hot as a steamer.
The nights were as cold as an ice cellar.
No food, no water, no tents for shade, no camels for transportation.
What's more, there is no experience in desert survival.
As long as they are trapped in the Nalun Desert, even if they escape from Kant's control and gain the so-called freedom, it is just a shortcut to death, and there is no other way to go.
If they want to survive, they can only obediently choose to obey.
So Kant was very reassuring about them.
Even the surrounding Swadian knights were scattered around, and they didn't pay much attention to the captives who were trekking in the desert with their hands behind their backs and struggling with the camel caravan.
Just relying on this group of prisoners who have no weapons, can't eat enough, are hungry, and are extremely exhausted.
Not enough to start an unsolvable rebellion.
not to mention.
Kant didn't mind killing some disobedient captives.
The speed of the march is not too slow.
Soon, on the eve of the end of the new Monday, Kant and the knights who traveled this time returned to the sentry oasis in the light of dusk with a camel caravan full of goods and exhausted captives.
In the early morning, nearly 70,000 dinars for maintaining military expenses have been deducted.
Kant's deposit was cut by more than half.
But when he returned to the sentry oasis, he received good news.
Jocelyn personally led the caravan headed to Pendor Continent just returned this morning, not only full of all kinds of goods, but also brought back a full 300,000 dinars of profits to Kant.
A total of 5 bags of gold were sold out of stock in the capital of the Kingdom of Sarleon.
That's great news.
Let Fatis arrange the captives and the caravan, and Kant quickly returned to the governing hall.
Jocelyn was waiting in the hall.
Seeing Kant coming in, he quickly smiled and stroked his chest: "Lord Kant, this trade has not disappointed you. On the Pendor Continent, only the Kingdom of Sarion has eaten up all the gold in full, and Ur of Sarion King Kerry, I would like to express my sincere respect to you for opening up the trade route, and also entrusted me to pass on to you his gift of respect for you."
As he spoke, Jocelyn took out a letter from his bosom, held it up respectfully and handed it to Kant, and said with emotion: "Thanks to you, Lord Kant, the Jocelyn family has restored its reputation and regained its noble status."
"Well, congratulations, Jocelyn."
Kant was slightly taken aback.
Although he still didn't understand what happened, he took the envelope and sat back on his seat, calmly said: "This trip to Pender is very rewarding, isn't it?"
"Of course, thanks to your wise decision." Jocelyn said with deep emotion.
"Um."
Kant nodded and opened the envelope.
It is beautifully patterned, from the traditional lion emblem of the Kingdom of Sarleon.
It is similar to the Kingdom of Swadia, but because of its stronger national power, the decoration is more exquisite and the texture is clearer. Even the texture of the paper is fine, and the ink used for writing has a smell of perfume.
This made Kant couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
The original kingdom is indeed very different from the kingdoms of these mods.
It can be reflected in national strength.
Calradia is similar to the middle ages of Earth, while Pendor is more like the late period. If it is the world of Warwind, it is more like modern times with fantasy magic, so the strength of each country is different.
It also caused different kinds of help for Kant among different MODs.
Such as the envelope of King Ulkli of this Sarion.
It was full of admiration for Kant, although it was all useless nonsense, but at the end, it also included a gift belonging to the Kingdom of Sarleon, the lord promised.
Kant will be the honorary lord of the kingdom of Sarleon.
You can exercise all the laws and regulations of the Kingdom of Sarion and enjoy all the honors of the Kingdom of Sarion.
Including the formation of the Knights of the Lion.
On Retina, system dialogs pop up.
[Ding... system prompt]
[At present, you have obtained the promise of the Kingdom of Sarion, and you have the status of the lord of Sarion, and you can formally form the Lion Knights in the territory. And because of your status as an honorary lord, the Kingdom of Sarion will recognize knights from other kingdoms, and you can also transfer to a member of the Lion Knights.]
[Remarks: It is detected that there are strange objects [Medal of the Lion Knights] and strange objects [Sword of the King]. Based on the medals, 10,000 reputation points and 100,000 dinars are consumed to officially build the Lion Knights resident. In this station, other knights can also join the Lion Knights for systematic study.]
Kant scanned the system prompt.
There have been completely different changes from when he first obtained the [King's Sword].
Just as it was not stated in the remarks at the time, even other knights can join the Lion Knights, become members of the Knights, undergo systematic training, and be promoted to stronger arms.
Obviously, now, with the recognition of the Kingdom of Sarion, Kant's authority has been greatly opened.
For example, the key building [Lion Knights Residence] was officially built!
"A new level 6 extraordinary knight."
Kant narrowed his eyes slightly.
Based on his experience in his previous life, he certainly understands the Lion Knights quite well. They are fundamentally different from the Swadia Royal Knights. They are equal to the new level 6 extraordinary knights. They belong to the Pendor Continent, the top unit of the Sarion Kingdom!
A Level 6 Extraordinary Knight even higher than the Sarrion Knight!
On the same level as the Swadian Royal Knights.
But even if they are both level 6 cavalry, the combat styles and tactics of the two sides are completely different.
This is the limitation of national strength.
Just like the Kingdom of Swadia, which itself is the number one cavalry power on the Calradia continent, heavy cavalry is invincible. If the legions of the two sides fight head-on in a flat area, no kingdom will be an opponent.
Even the Kugit Khanate and the Sultanate of Sarande, the two cavalry powers, dare not confront them head-on.
Therefore, the iron cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia can charge unscrupulously.
But the Knights of the Lion are different.
In the continent of Pendor, the Kingdom of Saarion is not the strongest.
Although it has inherited most of the legacy of the Pendor Empire, this kingdom is still a new kingdom, surrounded by the Kingdom of Ravenston, the Republic of Fieldsway, the Principality of Dasha, the Jatu Tribe, and the kingdom that was almost annexed. The entire Pendor Continent, the Bacchus Empire from other continents in the outer seas!
Although the Kingdom of Sarleon has a strong force and also focuses on heavy cavalry, in the face of other powerful enemies, these cavalry must rely heavily on the cooperation of heavy infantry and crossbowmen in order to exert their maximum effectiveness.
This also led to the fact that the heavy cavalry of the Kingdom of Sarion were not actually assault cavalry that launched an assault to tear apart the enemy's formation.
It is a mobile heavy tank that rushes into the enemy's formation and slashes wantonly.
Take the tactical role of close combat!
This difference is like Kant's two top archers, similar to the Vikia sharpshooter who is good at group salvos, covering the rain of arrows to kill the enemy, and the Ravenston ranger who shoots rapidly and kills the enemy with uninterrupted arrow rain That difference is an essential difference.
If the cavalry of the Kingdom of Sarion rushed into the enemy army as recklessly as the cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia, it is estimated that the enemy's troops were not crushed by the rush, but that their ace cavalry suffered inevitable losses during the charge.
The crossbowmen on the continent of Pendor are stronger than those on the continent of Calradia.
Such as the Ravenston Ranger.
Comparable to the strongest Vekia sharpshooter on the Calradia continent.
But on Pendor Continent, they are just the most cost-effective civilian archers, and they are the best archers to defend the uncivilized barbarians who don't have much armor in the Misty Mountains.
If the troops are counted as long-range arms, the Ravenston Ranger can only be regarded as an advantage in mass production.
As for long-range firepower.
Whether it is the Silver Mist Ranger, Barkley Engineer, Ebony Gauntlet, Daxia War Archer, Order Fire Crossbow, etc., they are all extremely terrifying existences. When the number reaches, they can shoot and collapse the enemy in front of them.
What's more, there are long-range invincible Noldor elves.
There is a saying that goes like this.
The Noldor Ranger's firepower lasts only 5 minutes, but he can shoot your steel shield halfway across the map in 5 seconds!
The issue of units has always been a unique highlight of each MOD, and it is even more unclear.
Now Kant can't sort it out.
"However, I don't need to think too much about it."
Rubbing between his brows, Kant looked calm.
The Royal Swadian Knights are responsible for charging and crushing the enemy.
The Lion Knights are responsible for rushing into the enemy's formation and hacking wantonly to speed up the process of the enemy's collapse.
This match is perfect!
"put up."
Eyes flicker, Kant's thinking communication system.
10,000 prestige and 100,000 dinars disappeared immediately, but in the eastern military area of the "Drehem" castle, on an open space next to the barracks and training ground, brand new buildings began to appear, with a distinctive Sarion Kingdom Characteristics.
At the same time, on the top of the building, a golden lion with a red background is fluttering in the wind.
The building that can upgrade the knight to a lion knight is completed!
