92 Medieval mercenaries

When Richard walked into the hotel, he looked around and saw many residents in the town, pedestrians passing by, and of course mercenary squads that were hard to notice. His eyebrows were slightly raised.

In the Middle Ages, there were indeed mercenary squads or mercenary regiments, which were considered early mercenaries. They were large and small, and were favored by many small countries or small nobles.After all, some small countries may have only a few cities, and some small nobles are more likely to have only a castle, a town, and a few villages. They usually cannot maintain an army at all, so when they need an army, they can only spend a certain amount of money. Money to hire mercenaries.

In general, mercenaries perform a variety of tasks, some of which are more difficult, such as protecting the safety of a city, or participating in a battle until victory.Some are more ridiculous, such as protecting a noble and a lover all the time, or hunting a special beast in the forest and so on.

Simply put, mercenaries are a relatively high-risk occupation in the current medieval world. They sell their combat skills and life safety in exchange for expensive remuneration.

Therefore, the mercenaries are mixed with all kinds of people, men, women, old people, children, good people, bad people, and more people with the highest interests.

Therefore, medieval mercenaries value integrity.

If you take the money, you will definitely do something. The employer will ask who will cut it.If on the battlefield, the enemy of the employer can pay double the price of the remuneration, then it can guarantee absolute neutrality.If the enemy of the employer can pay three times the price of the remuneration, he will be defeated.

Clear price tag, Tongsuo no bullying.

Of course, there are also some aliens.For example, on modern earth, the Swiss mercenaries developed in the late Middle Ages are known for their discipline, bravery and loyalty.

In the three Burgundian wars, the Swiss mercenaries repeatedly defeated the Duke of Burgundy's bold Charlie, and the last time he directly killed the bold Charlie.In the Roman robbery, Carlos I, then the king of Spain and the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, led a 30,000 army to surround Rome in an attempt to capture the pope.The Swiss mercenaries evacuated to cover the pope, and 147 of the 189 people were killed and finally completed the mission.Since then, on modern earth, the Swiss Guard has been the protective power and ritual symbol of the Vatican of the Papal State.

Glancing at the mercenary squad with one female and three males, Richard dare not arbitrarily conclude that the other party is an honest mercenary or a different kind of mercenary. After all, before witnessing the behavior of the other party, everything is a matter of probability.But this has nothing to do with him. He just planned to stay here overnight, and then wait until tomorrow to go to the king capital of the Emerald City and see Gro.

Richard stepped towards the counter, asked for an empty room, and asked for the meal to be delivered into the room, without wordiness, turned and took Pandora up the stairs.

...

Denise watched Richard move upstairs with Pandora like a little maid, her eyes twinkled, and then felt someone quietly poking her body with her fingers.

Turning his head to the side, he saw Cole looking over.

"What are you doing?" Denise asked.

"Oh." Cole smiled at Denise and asked in a low voice, "How's that, Denise, did you see the aristocratic boy who didn't have the full hair just now?"

"Huh." Denise didn't deny it, squinting, "So what? Young and cute, but it suits my taste."

"That's the best." Cole said, "Our goal is the same, but the difference is that you are seeing people, and I am looking for money. How about, cooperation to get a vote?"

Denise's eyes narrowed and stared at Cole for a long time: "How do I know that you are telling the truth, in case you are just using me? I remember this happened before. Well, yes It was three months ago, I helped you get away with your goal. After you went to the other party’s room to pick up your luggage, you just slipped away. Let me be entangled by the disgusting fat businessman all night."

"Oh." Cole wasn't embarrassed, and smiled fleshly, "Don't talk to each other, neither of us. After half a year ago, I helped you hook up with the young heir of the baron, you didn't help me. Go get his wallet. As a result, you bothered to flatter for a long time, but the other party did not look at you, and wasted the opportunity to get rich."

Denise's eyebrows were slightly raised, a bit sullen.

Cole waved his hand quickly: "Stop, stop! When it's time to talk about business, do you say it's okay? The plan is this, you use your... well, the charm seduce the noble boy, wherever you go. If you have In fact, it is best to seduce the noble boy to the bed in your room, so that he can swear to marry you, don't you always have this purpose. And I, just take the opportunity to go to his room and turn over his luggage ."

"Huh, don't forget, he still has a little maid," said Denise.

"Oh, what about a little girl who doesn't have my chest height? I fooled it in a few words. It wasn't enough. I just tied it up and plugged it in the corner, and it was impossible to fight against the sky?" Cole said disdainfully.

"Then you have to put on a mask. Just now the noble boy and the little maid have seen us together. Although I am not sure if I have remembered, but in case the little maid recognizes you, then tell the noble boy to plan It's all over. Of course, you can kill, kill the little maid, but... you know, I don't like killing people."

"Okay, it's troublesome, but listen to you, I'll go with a mask." Cole said impatiently, then thought of something, and asked aloud, "In this case, then you agree to the plan. ?"

"Agree, of course." Denise said, her mouth twitching. "Why don't you agree? It's not easy to meet a nobleman, especially a nobleman who has a single order. I have a chance, but I can't Let go."

"However, don't you worry, is this aristocrat a fake aristocrat? There are not many pretending to be an aristocrat now, and he just brought a little maid, which is suspicious."

"If it's true, then I'll wait for him!" Denise's voice was a little cold, and then it turned again, her eyes twitching, "But if it is a real noble, even the smallest heir to the Lord, I He must also have a good time and let him really appreciate the beauty of being a man instead of a boy, making him absolutely reluctant to leave me."

Looking at Denise's appearance, Cole couldn't help licking his lips and felt his throat slightly dry, but then calmed down.In his view, money is more important than women. If there is money, what kind of woman can't find it?The reason why Denise wants to seize every nobleman because she is hungry is not for money?If he had money, he could find a way to buy a knighthood, and Denise would probably climb onto his bed on his own initiative.Well, of course, that requires a lot of money.

At this time, Muke, the captain of the mercenary squad, made a sound, and he knocked on the table and said: "I went back to the room and went to bed. Don’t sleep too late. We will rush to Wangdu tomorrow morning. , Don't delay."

"Ah, yes." The rest replied.

After Mook went upstairs, the strong man took a full look at Denise, and some reluctantly went upstairs.Cole and Denise discussed for another half day and determined some details before finally going upstairs.
