Chapter 299 Recruitment Order (All Rewards Plus!)

While the serfs were busy, Gervais didn’t stop for a moment, and he didn’t have much time left to return to Stormland this time.

Just two days ago, the herald of Rose Castle, Yigel, had arrived in Stormland and sent Alice’s summoning order. The date of the southern expedition had been set, which was 20 days later.

The duration of the southern expedition is at least two months, because the law of dukedom stipulates that all vassals are obliged to serve their monarchs for two months free of charge every year.

During these two months, the vassals should not give any benefits or compensation to their vassals, and even the vassals’ food and drink rations are prepared by themselves.

Of course, if the time exceeds two months, if the lord still wants the vassals to serve him, he needs to be responsible for the rations of the vassals and their soldiers, and even needs to provide a certain amount. Money as a reward, otherwise the vassal has the right to refuse the monarch’s request to continue fighting.

In the memory of the original owner, Jean dukedom’s southern expedition against Alban dukedom will not last for more than two months every year. After all, if the king pays all the nobles and nobles in the dukedom, it will take a long time for the king to absolutely Can’t eat it either.

After receiving Alice’s call-up order, in order to ensure the safety of this southern expedition, the first thing Gervais needs to do is to train his soldiers hard.

There is a minimum number of people who need to be recruited by the lord of the summoning order. For example, Gervais has now become a viscount lord. After receiving the summoning order from Alice, he must ensure that the number of people who go to fight must not be less than 150.

Of course, Gervais and the other Viscounts of Baron are small country lords after all. If each Viscount sends 150 well-trained soldiers, it would be a bit of a challenge.

So this draft order only stipulates that the number of people participating in the war must be no less than 150. As for whether these people are well-trained soldiers or serfs with wooden sticks, it depends on the fief lord himself the will.

If Gervais wanted to cheat, he could even pick out 150 old serfs who were trembling on their feet.

But which lord does this, he will definitely die the fastest, because such a move is obviously not taking his Fengjun in his eyes. Although Fengjun can’t directly punish you, he can. Sent you on the most dangerous missions, when the time comes definitely went but never returned.

The normal operation of fief lords should be to add half of their soldiers to the recruited team, and the other half to be made up by the serfs, which can not only ensure a certain battle strength, but also will not get angry. own king.

It is actually very necessary to bring half of the well-trained soldiers, not only for their own safety, but also to gain some benefits in the war.

The Southern Expedition happens every year. Although the official call-up order arrived two days before this year, Gervais started to make various preparations on the second day when he returned to Stormland.

In addition to the recruits, various materials in the war must also be adequately prepared. Although 150 people may not sound like a lot, they have to fight for at least two months, which is also a huge consumption. .

Although it is said that the vassals only need to serve the monarch for two months each year, no lord will prepare materials for two months. Under normal circumstances, the fief lords will prepare for two and a half months. Three months of supplies are used to prepare for unexpected situations.

Food is the most important thing in the supplies, and marching and fighting is the most physically and mentally consuming thing, and food must be sufficient. Of course, whether it is nutritious or not depends on the fief lord. In short, the minimum requirement is to make people full.

For this reason, the kitchen in the forecourt of the Golden Castle has been running day and night for 9 days, constantly twisting the newly harvested wheat into bran, and directly making long sticks without any screening and filtration. shaped brown bread.

Using black bread as rations is not Gervais’ black heart, and he is reluctant to provide better food for the soldiers, but these black breads are prepared for 3 months, and only such black breads are the easiest to store and transport. It will neither mold nor deteriorate, and it will not melt even in heavy rain.

In fact, in addition to the hard black bread, Gervais also prepared more than 30 wild boars and a huge amount of seafood for the southern expedition.

The wild boars were hunted by the soldiers themselves in the forest these days. All the thirty or so wild boars were slaughtered, and none were left, and handed over to Jean and his recipe to be cured into bacon.

The sea fish was purchased from the seaside mountain village. The children of the three seaside villages caught three carts of sea fish in just one week. These sea fish were also wrapped in the seaside under the guidance of Jimmy. Salted and dried into dried fish.

Dried fish, wild boar bacon and black bread, this kind of food is not bad, at least in normal times, even the guards like Ike rarely eat meat and fish a few times a month.

And the food Gervais prepared this time was based on three-month rations. Dried fish and bacon were enough for the soldiers to eat every meal.

Such a good meal treatment will definitely make most of the nobles blush.

After the rations are arranged, Gervais will also arrange the weapons and equipment.

While in Winterfell, Gervais had already seen the effect of a volley of muskets. Although muskets were not a big threat to the title of Knight, for ordinary soldiers, the killing effect was better than that of bows and arrows. Many, of course, there are disadvantages, that is, slow loading.

But this time, Gervais still customized 14 long muskets in Bernard’s blacksmith shop. These muskets Gervais prepared for ordinary guards.

In addition to the guards, Gervais also upgraded the equipment for the slave soldiers. Although the slave soldiers were trained to be killing machines by the slave master, their equipment was too rudimentary. Everyone only had a pair of leather armor and own weapon.

Such equipment is unequal to the abilities displayed by slave soldiers, and sending them to the battlefield like this is reckless waste of natural resources.

Bathroom Gervais customized 100 helmets, 100 Mithril arrows, 80 Bucklers and 30 Mithril long swords directly for the slave soldiers.

Helmets are for every slave. As for Mithril Arrows, of course, they are prepared for 20 longbowmen. These 20 Mithril Arrows, Gervais, are going to be used exclusively on the battlefield to shoot cold arrows against the title Knight. .

80 round shields are allocated to long spear soldiers and long sword hands. In cold weapon war, before the fight at close quarters, both sides will inevitably have to shoot several waves of arrows, so in order to guard against each other’s bows and arrows Inflict damage to the slave soldiers, and only equip them with a round shield to defend against the opponent’s arrow feathers.

Next is 30 Mithril long swords, which are prepared for the slave long sword hands. Since seeing their sword technique in the slave market, Gervais has reluctantly made a lot of money to match them. Use the Mithril long sword to improve their battle strength.

They didn’t waste their normal long sword Gervais either, picking the best 20 and assigning them to the all-around longbowman.

The above are the weapons and equipment prepared by Gervais for the southern expedition. These weapons and equipment Gervais have made a lot of money.

“I just hope you have good luck, and you can get more benefits in the Southern Expedition, otherwise you will lose a lot of money!”

This is after Gervais has formulated the weapons and equipment to be prepared. Sentences.

In Gervais’ materials, the preparation of the food did not cost much, the wild boar was completely free, and the dried fish was also very cheap. As for the wheat for making the black bread, it was the tax that was just collected this year. Even the wheat bran was not screened out, so let alone how cheap it is.

These weapons and equipment cost the most money, and most of them are spent on slave soldiers.

Among them, only 30 Mithril long swords, Gervais will pay Bernard 3 gold coins, and 100 Mithril arrows need 1 gold coin, each matchlock gun needs 1 gold coin. 10 Silver Coins are required for a total of 14, which is 1 gold coin and 4 Silver Coins.

Because the helmets and round shields are made of common materials, although there are a lot of them, the total cost in the end is 1gold coin 32Silver Coin.

All in all, Gervais consumes about 6 gold coins in total, but this is not the value of Mithril. If Mithril is counted, Gervais paid at least 80 gold coins for these equipment coins.

Similarly, this time the number of weapons was so large that Bernard worked late into the night every day, and even Alec was recently driven back to the smithy by Gervais to help.

After the rations and weapons have been arranged, Gervais does not need to take care of other items such as tents and carriages. They are all ordered by Thomas who go to other territories, so that Gervais is not too busy.

Somewhat blushed with shame! It was promised that two chapters of ten thousand rewards would be added today, but only this chapter has been coded so far! I owe another chapter first, let’s see if I can make it up tomorrow!

Thanks to “Do I still have a chance” for the reward! ! !

I’m ashamed to say that, I just found out in the past two days that many big writers have added 2 to 3 chapters to the reward, but I only have one chapter.

However, I have been really busy recently, so I will not change it for the time being. Thank you for your support!

Poor, I seem to owe two more chapters to the monthly pass, and I owe a total of 3 chapters, I will remember it!
