Medieval Empire Soldier Chapter 7

  Chapter 7 Seven Bray Town

  I have to say that riding a horse is a very physically exhausting thing.

   Instigated by running around for a long time, Lailun felt that his hips were aching.

   The scenery along the way was dull, and the construction of the imperial countryside was in a very backward state. Most of the villages we saw along the way were only surrounded by fences. Most of the conscripted militia stationed there were listless, yellow and skinny. Facing the beastmen's attack, these defenders were useless.

  The location around the town of Bray is dangerous, so the land that can be cultivated is extra precious, and the number of villages is much less than in the eastern hinterland.

The economic development of the entire town of Bray is supported by a quarry and iron ore. Where there are mines, there will be dwarves. It is said that the number of mountain dwarves settled in the town of Bray exceeds seventy, and the total number of this frontier town. There are only 1,300 people.

The location is close to the Dracowald Forest, and the business of several logging farms on the outskirts of the town of Bray is also decent. There are abundant resources of giant logs, and the price of wood is always the lowest. difference.

  After several hours of long-distance raiding, Laylen finally arrived at Bray Town, the only imperial city that the native Laylen had ever seen.

  Compared to the ancient city that Lallen remembered to visit, Bray Town is still much smaller.

Seen from a distance, black smoke floats into the sky, and the general situation of the city can be clearly seen from its location. The wooden city wall blocks Laren's sight. The gate of the city opened inward, and the equipment of the soldiers standing guard outside the city gate was completely different from the thin uniforms on Lailun's body.

The soldiers at the sentry wore full-body scale armor, chain hoods and steel helmets to protect their heads and necks. The soldiers held sharp spears and halberds in their hands. Compared with the village militiamen, the soldiers in Bray Town were more pale and skinny. Healthy, a guard officer held a sword in one hand and stood at the guard post inside the horse-rejecting pile, his eyes constantly scanning the passing pedestrians.

   There were two long lines lined up outside the city gate. Lailen dismounted and followed the end of the line, holding the reins.

   When it was about to be Laren's turn, there was a loud noise from inside the city gate.

It seems that a team of mercenaries and a caravan clashed. The mercenary headed by a mercenary had a typical Northca appearance, more than 1.9 meters in size, with exposed muscles on both arms, and two sharp and short handles on the back. The axe constantly refracts the cold light, and the two sides argue endlessly.

   Mercenaries are the most likely to cause conflicts. They use their lives to gain benefits. Similarly, mercenaries are better at using their lives to get angry when they do anything.

"The goods of your caravan are always escorted by the mercenary group of the bears! Last time we met the green mushroom robbers, how many good guys we have lost! We don't even have half a copper coin to compensate, just say a word. Change someone else's escort? You asked my double axe first if they agree!"

   Several guards rushed over after hearing the sound, and the city gate fell into a brief confusion.

The conflict between the two sides continued to expand. As the leader of the Norsca mercenary leader threatened with a double axe, the men and horses on both sides drew their weapons one after another. The spears and halberds of the city gate defenders also gradually tilted from upright, and several archers on the city wall also took up their arrows.

   "Put down your weapons immediately! Leave the city gate quickly! Otherwise, it will be dealt with in accordance with the laws of the duchy!" The chief guard shouted at both parties.

   "Spread out!"

   "All spread out! Back off!"

  The guard soldiers walked back and forth, yelling loudly, and constantly dispersing the dense crowd that was approaching here.

   Pedestrians lining up outside the city were also forced to step back. Laren became interested now. He pulled the traveling horse and stood there like this, looking inside the city gate with great interest.

"Hey!" A change occurred. Among the confronting caravans, a caravan guard pulled a long bow and seemed to want to intimidate the other party. He shot an arrow at the stone slab in front of a mercenary. Unbiased, right at the base of the mercenary's thigh.

  The Northka people are all masters who are good at fighting their lives, and their tempers are extremely manic. This mutation undoubtedly angered the entire mercenary group of wild bears.

  The head of the Norsca mercenary was instantly furious, and rushed up to punch the guard in front of the door. The latter made an "ah" sound, and the kite with a broken string seemed to fly upside down a few meters.

  The rest of the wild bear mercenary group followed closely behind, and the passive defense of the caravan fell into a disadvantage in an instant.

   The chief guard's face was ugly, and he immediately ordered the guards: "Take them!"

   It was an impulse to move his hand, but it was a real knife and real gun attack, which damaged several lives. At most, he was deprived of his position. If the situation expands into unrestrained killing and involving civilians, is it wrong to be the chief guard? If something like this happened while he was guarding, the lord will definitely blame him!

   He could only call out in vain: "Stop now! Stop now!"

  The chief guard dispatched soldiers to inform the lord, and dispatched the gate guards to surround both sides of the fighting to prevent innocent civilians from being involved.

  Lyren raised his eyebrows, such a thing is rare, especially the mercenary group formed by the Northca people, it is very rare.

  The guards outside the city gate all ran inside the gate to control the situation, and no one blocked the entry of outsiders for a while, and the gathered crowd rushed up immediately, just to see the truth.

  Blood conflict is a scene that people in the northern part of the empire like to see, especially the Milden and Nord collars.

As an imperial soldier, Lailun is actually obliged to cooperate with the city gate guards to stabilize the situation, maintain order, and protect the decree of the principality. Entering the field at this moment will only cause unnecessary trouble to himself, not to mention that the two sides are just **** and kicking. fight.

  Lairn suddenly remembered that there are still several tasks in the system, one of which is [Discover 1 heroic unit]

   hurriedly called up the system panel. Laren had never used this trick before, and fixed his eyes on the unstoppable Norsca mercenary in the crowd.

  【Name: Harleck Angry Bear (Elite)】

  【Race: Norska People】

  【Occupation: Berserker】

  【Equipment: Heavy Attack Battle Axe (Dual Weapon)】

  [Characteristic: Battle Frenzy (in melee combat +5 melee combat, within range +3 melee combat)]

  [Potential: 610]

   Good guy! War Frenzy attribute? Not only give yourself a melee bonus, but also a melee bonus within a range?

   With the help of the system, Lailun saw the surface of the mercenary's skin, and there was a faint red light. No wonder the mercenary group was in a stalemate, fighting more and less without losing the wind.

  【Hero Mission: Discover a Hero (Completed)】

  【Reward: Hero Pack, pay attention to check. 】

  【Hero Mission 2: Discover 3 Heroes (13)】

  The Northca man Harek became more and more courageous, and the surrounding gate guards were startled and retreated. Under the commander's loud order, the gate guards looked embarrassed and laid the tip of the gun flat, worthy of a circle.

Inside the city gate, there was a commotion in the crowd, only to hear someone shouting: "Captain Creel is here! Captain Creel is here!"

   Accompanied by the sound of neat footsteps, a team of imperial swordsmen, all wearing scales, quickly passed through the crowd, and the crowd quickly separated from the middle.

At the forefront of the imperial swordsmen team, the lead officer rode a midden warhorse. His face was sharp and angular, and he looked less than forty years old. He was wearing heavy half-body plate armor and a long sword was pinned to his waist. The warhorse had two battle shields hanging on it and a black battle gown on the outside.

  The younger brother of Leif Anlosian, the lord of Bray Town.

   "In the name of Lord Leif, I order you to lay down your weapons!" Krill took out his long sword first, and his low voice resounded throughout the area.

  Lyren felt that this sound was like a loud roar in his ear, which made his eardrums hurt. Another elite-level powerhouse! And the strength is far stronger than the Nothka mercenary leader.

   The chief guard saw the backbone, and his morale was lifted, so that he would not worry that these mercenaries would mess up, and more gate guards would gather and press on.

  Nothka's mercenary was stunned by the yelling, and the two sides stopped fighting and separated slowly. Obviously, they were both afraid of the tyrannical Captain Krill.

  Many mercenaries showed vigilance, but Harek, the mercenary leader, clenched his axe with his hands behind his back, and looked at Krill with a bad look.

  The caravan guards also withdrew their weapons, and no one wanted to offend the lord and minister.

   "Collect their weapons! All the gate guards, tie them up! Leave it to the lord to deal with." Krill said decisively, his eyes wandering over the leaders of both parties.

  Under the pained eyes of the merchant, the city gate guard took away the caravan's carriage and all the goods on it for custody. If the merchant wanted to exchange the goods again, he would not bleed a lot, and I am afraid that the goods would have to be thrown in the town of Bray.

The city gate guards stepped forward to collect the weapons of the mercenaries. Most of the mercenary group were the savage Norskars from the north. Naturally, they were not convinced, but after seeing Harley snorted and handed over the double axe, the mercenaries had no choice but to do so. Do as you please.

After Krill learned about the situation, the top city defense officer decided that it was the businessman who acted first and took the main responsibility for the whole thing, while the wild bear mercenary group blocked the road and disturbed the order of the town of Bury, and took the secondary responsibility. Everyone paid 20 silver coins. Compensation for the wounded guard soldiers, the caravan pays most of it, and the rest is handed over to Halek.

   More matters will be handed over to Lord Leif for trial.

  The crowds blocked outside the city gate were dispersed by the gate guards and re-lined up in a long line.

   After the change just now, the soldiers were more strict with passing pedestrians. When it was Laren's turn, the gatekeeper looked at him several times.

   Taking advantage of the fact that the soldiers who were examining him were flipping through his waist cards, Lailun silently handed out a silver coin, took a step closer, and said in a low voice, "Is the Motor Inn in Bray Town full?"

The latter looked around calmly, took the silver coin, rubbed it in his hand, and after confirming that it was a real silver coin, he couldn't help smiling, and said sideways: "There are still a few rooms left, and the Felda family made a few new bottles. Mead, go and taste it."

   Afterwards, the gatekeeper raised his halberd and let Laren go.

There are many hotels and pubs in Bray Town. The weather in the northern principality of the empire is cold all the year round. Free people and a small number of peasants like to gather in a noisy pub and drink a glass of cheap barley wine when they are free. Chatting, chatting, talking about women.

   They prefer the latter.

  The speeding hotel in Bray Town is a place where imperial soldiers and some rangers of unknown origin often stay. The drinks here are usually one or two copper coins cheaper than other houses.

   Speed ​​Hotel is a "white laundering shop", which is also commonly known as a loot den.

   Every day there are unknown people, or "people", who walk into the gates of hotels with unknown goods.

   These are not the reasons for Lallen to go either.

In my original memory, the former Laren had been to the Speed ​​Hotel a lot. Although he was timid, he liked to stare at the people in the Speed ​​Hotel who were busy all day, wearing a cool and close-fitting long dress all day, and his hips were as round as peaches. Pretty tavern maid.

   Every time he was beaten up, he stayed at the door and didn't leave.

  The other memories are not very deep, so I remember these. The aboriginal Lallen has a bad personality, and it's just an embryo.

  Lilren wanted to find a hotel to stay for one night. It is also a hotel. There are places where you can feast your eyes. Why not go?

   Entering the city wall, the buildings of Midden Collar are unique. Looking around, the low-rise houses in the town of Bray are arranged in an orderly manner, forming blocks.

  Lauren got on his traveling horse and hurried to the buzzing hotel.

The main road from east to west and north to south runs through the whole town of Bray. There are many shops and two-story houses on both sides of the road. On the road, there are only a few people in gorgeous clothes riding horses and swaggering through the city. Take goods from Bray Town to other villages and towns to sell.

   Om Hotel looks like a fortress from a distance, located on the main road at the southern end of Bray Town. A two-meter-high black stone wall encloses the hotel, where there is also a wooden watchtower. Guards employed in the inn can stand in the tower, watch the approaching carriage and all incoming passengers, or patrol the approaching soldiers.

  The hotel is divided into two floors, a hotel and a tavern. There are two large gates "Pegasus" and "Passengers", which lead from the outer courtyard to the two inner courtyards and the hotel's relatively safe and warm main building.

   Between the two gates, a busy kitchen and pantry connect the two parts of the hotel.

  Inside the gated passenger gate is the bar and a private "room" for exclusive gatherings. The bar is large and empty when there are no horse-drawn carriages, but can also be crowded on busy holidays. Connected to it is a storage room that leads down to a fully equipped cellar - which is also accessible from a ramp in the winery room opposite the delivery entrance at the rear of the hotel.

The buzzing hotel features mead. This beer uses honey collected from the three beehives at the back of the courtyard. The barley tastes sweet with honey. It is said that several bottles are often seen on the wine table of Lord Leif. Mead.

The    carriage door leads to an inner courtyard with three stable areas for patrons, private patrons and convoy horses.

Walking into the lobby, the passengers filled almost all the places they could sit. The hot atmosphere made the first floor of the hotel very noisy. Everyone was drinking and having fun. The three tavern maids who were walking in the crowd were busy like butterflies. Turning around, occasionally a daring guy wiped his oil, and they all laughed and scolded him and knocked off his outstretched hand.

   Ask for tickets and collections!
