Chapter 415: Jatu Prairie
"Alek, you are worthy of your name. From now on, you will be the commander of the cavalry in the Fire Mercenary Group!"
Amid the excitement of cheers, Zhang Yang did not forget the serious matter and found the old Alec. Sure enough, this old guy was plundering him calmly.
"Captain, as you wish, but now, let's see what we have gained first. By the way, can you give me an ancient rune shield?" The old guy's vision was naturally very good.
"No problem, all the weapons and equipment are for you to choose!"
Zhang Yang was generous. He had too many seized in this battle. Apart from the 12 dead war horses and the 2 run away, the remaining 13 war horses were all wealth. Moreover, there was also an underworld charge horse, which was the mount of the rogue knight Maddie.
As for weapons and equipment, some can still be sold after being distributed to all soldiers.
The biggest big head is Zhang Yang and the soldiers' upgrades.
He was promoted from level 1 to level 16 again, this time he added it to his strength and also increased it to a strong attack.
Soldiers,
Another armed infantry, Ig, has been upgraded to a swordsman and is also qualified to be called a veteran.
Then Tony and Bob were both promoted one level, but Tony only killed one rogue serf, while Bob killed one rogue knight and two rogue serfs, which was obviously related to his newly obtained two-handed greatsword.
Zhang Yang personally assigned attribute points and skill points to the two of them, including Tony adding intelligence, allowing the strong attack skill to reach level 4, Bob adding strength, and the strong attack skill to level 6.
At this point, Bob had obviously left Tony behind.
Carly performed well in this battle. With the advantage of using new weapons, she also shot and killed three enemies, successfully upgraded to level 11, and her attributes also changed a lot.
Carly: 18 years old (level 11)
Identity: Maid (female citizen)
Health: 70
Attributes: Strength 15, Agility 9, Intelligence 9, Charm 10.
Skills: Iron Bone Level 4, Strong Attack Level 2, Riding Level 3, Riding and Shooting Level 3, Persuasion Level 3, Trading Level 1.
Proficiency: 115 with one hand, 145 with crossbow.
Finally, the second sons of the three nobles were upgraded to scoundrels, and the two Katu wanderers were upgraded to Katu attackers.
The reason why they upgraded so quickly was certainly related to their killing in this battle, but also had a lot to do with their original accumulation.
Then there is rewarding merits and practices.
An ancient rune shield was naturally given to Old Alec. The old guy also picked a full body armor, changed to a rifle, and a half sword with a talisman seal hand. His aura suddenly increased, and he even seemed to be more than a teenager younger.
The second ancient rune shield was given to veteran Robert, and the third ancient rune shield was given to veteran Norton.
In fact, as the assault swordsman in the regular army of Sarion, he is not qualified to equip ancient rune shields. This must be the Sarion Imperial Guard to be qualified.
But now, veterans Robert and Norton are not only equipped with full-body armor, all-steel masks and helmets, but also have ancient rune shields. This has become an iron fortress in advance, but the attributes are too far behind.
The three upgraded scoundrels, two Gatu attackers, Zhang Yang also replaced them with mounts, armor and weapons respectively.
In this way, in just half an hour, the combat effectiveness of the Zhang Yang's Fire Mercenary Group had doubled.
"Captain, should we continue to rush through the road overnight or stay here to rest?"
After the busy schedule, Old Alec asked.
"What about your opinion?"
Zhang Yang asked, he had already overestimated the old man, but now he is looking forward to the old man's performance more and more.
"Hehe, captain, if it were me, I would order to leave overnight. Our victory this time was entirely due to McGrady's contempt for us, but once the battle situation tonight was spread, it would be like stabbing a hornet's nest. There are many rogue knights in the Affendor area. Of course, some rogue knights will not deal with McGrady, but such a record is enough to arouse their interest."
"So I expected that at most two days, five rogue knight teams would come, with a total force of more than 120 people, and even this matter would continue to ferment. At that time, the rogue knights in the Sarrion area and the rogue knights in the Marion area would hear the record of the Fiery Mercenary Group. I said that they were like hyenas on the grassland, extremely difficult to deal with. Once they found our traces, they would continue to catch up until they killed us and made the heads into toilets."
"At that time, I am bluntly speaking, unless your mercenary group is already strong enough, you won't even think about gaining a foothold in the Kingdom of Sarion. So my suggestion is to walk overnight, go to Marion first, then go through the plains south of Marion, enter the Gatu prairie, follow the trade route and go directly to the Kingdom of Rivingston. When you have enough strength, it's not too late to return."
The old man gave a suggestion after a few words, especially his analysis of the Rogue Knights was deeply recognized by Zhang Yang. Yes, he also felt that these Rogue Knights were too troublesome and were like kraft candies when they got involved. Therefore, it was better to move forward.
"Okay, let's take a break and wait for the carriage to be repaired, and we will set off overnight."
Next, Zhang Yang's team traveled day and night to arrive in Marion City on the morning of the third day.
Here, he quickly sold some of the trophy and six extra horses, and exchanged them for 3,000 silver dinars.
But as soon as he changed his hand, he bought three short composite bows and six packs of feather arrows.
This is for Old Alec and the two Gatu attackers, the three of them, plus Anderson, Carly, and Zhang Yang, can also gather a five-person Ranger team.
In addition, he bought a whole truck of food, horse essence, some medicine, etc., because he had to prepare for crossing the Jiatu prairie.
Finally, Zhang Yang followed the advice of Old Alec and bought a large cart of salt at the port of Mariones. This was not for self-use, but could be sold to the Kingdom of Rivingston, because the old man swore that in the Poinblu area, this cart of salt could earn 3,000 silver dinars.
Of course, the premise is not to be robbed by the Gatu robbery team.
When Zhang Yang expressed his concern about this, Old Alec laughed.
"Captain, I have to go twice a year from Marionóns to Poinblu in the past. I know every route. I know more about the Gatu people than the lice on my body. Don't worry, even if I meet those Gatu people, I have a way."
The old man’s solution is to prepare enough to resist horses.
For this reason, Zhang Yang had to buy a large cart, equipped with a total of 200 horse-repellent horses, and prepared an additional 20 large wooden shields ten centimeters thick.
When the last silver dinar on his body was also exhausted, they embarked on a journey again, preparing to cross the prairie of Gatu.
