Chapter 209 Military Conscription on

The central square of the barbarian fortress.

The huge transmission array flashed with a faint halo. A white light suddenly flashed, and an adventurer was teleported over.

From his slightly immature face and excited and curious look, it can be seen that this young adventurer came to the secret place for the first time, and he was a freshman in the secret place like Leon half a month ago.

Because he had no experience at all, he walked out of the teleportation array and looked blankly, looking confused and ignorant.

Leon, who was passing by here, smiled and took the initiative to ask, "Hey, is this your first time to come to the Holy Land?"

The young warrior suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, this is my first time here, I am..."

"Let's go to the mercenary union first!" Leon interrupted his self-introduction and guided him: "You can register as a sanctuary mercenary. This status is very good for future adventures. Don't rush into the danger zone first, listen to those old mercenaries first."

"If you go to the bar at night, you can get the experience that can save your life from them with just a few glasses of wine. The bartender is also a good choice. I wish you all the best. I hope to see you again next time!"

After saying that, Leon patted him on the shoulder and turned around and walked towards a towering tower not far away.

The transmission array in the central square is one-way. If you want to return to the Glorious Continent, you must use the transmission array of the fortress gircon.

Of course, it costs a lot of money.

Odniz and Gucci the old lion stood at the entrance of Fata. They came to see Leon off.

"Lei, it will take a few days to deal with all the loot. How can I give you your share?" Captain Lion asked.

"It's good to transfer it to the mercenary union..." Leon smiled and said, "She will contact you."

This time, the Holy Blade Team has captured a large number of loot. It must take time to deal with it. A lot of magic core equipment also needs to be evaluated. The real valuable ones have to be brought back to the mainland for sale.

When he got the soul-eating arm, Leon didn't care much about the remaining share he could get, so he simply left a letter to Mu Li. If the gold coins were enough, he would buy a house directly in the fortress as a place to settle down.

Considering the future, expensive hotels are not a wise choice.

Odniz nodded and stopped talking, while the old lion Gucci showed an ambiguous look: "Okay boy, you hooked a beautiful woman so soon. Mu Li is a flower in the union. I didn't expect it to be picked by you!"

Leon touched his nose and smiled without saying anything. The old lion laughed and gave him a strong hug: "Have a good trip. When are you going to come back?"

"It depends. It shouldn't be too late." Leon said, "Brother Gucci, Captain Odnez, please take more care of Mullie after I leave."

"Don't worry!" The old lion patted his chest and said, "I promise I won't let her be bullied by others!"

Odniz also nodded. With their promise, the last thing in Leon's heart was put down.

After saying goodbye to the two old mercenaries, Leon stepped into Fata.

After showing his mercenary badge, he paid the transmission fee to the priest who presided over the array and returned to the Sal collar through the spatial coordinate crystal positioning.

The process of transmission was no different from that when it came. In a blink of an eye, Leon returned to the underground space of the Saar lord's mansion.

"Your Excellency, you're back!"

When he opened his eyes, the first thing that came into Leon's eyes was the familiar face of the mage Aklan.

... Leon's return was calm and did not cause any fluctuations in the territory.

This aspect is that Sal Ling is currently formal, and there is a special person to preside over all aspects of affairs. The temporary departure of the lord will not cause problems. In fact, everyone is used to his absence.

Half a month is very short, and everything in the territory is normal, except for a kingdom order from the royal capital and from Tormond.

The Bemon royal family and the royal garchs issued a war call to the Sal!

This conscription order is not specially issued for the Salling. As a small leader in a remote area of the province, the Salling is not qualified to receive special attention from the kingdom.

This order affects hundreds of autonomous territories in the three major provinces of Southwest, Western Xinjiang and Mohai. Its goal is to recruit more than 100,000 troops to participate in the war against barbarians in the north of the kingdom.

The barbarians in the northern ice and snow zone have always been a headache for the Kingdom of Bemon.

Although the kingdom occupies the northern territory of the mainland, in the remote areas of the north and the vast polar ice sheet, a large number of barbarian tribes attack the kingdom provinces from time to time, posing a serious threat to the far north and the province where the king's capital are located.

In fact, in terms of the strength of both sides, there is no knight and the barbarians of the legal class and the Bemon orcs, but the barbarians, as servants of the human race, have the support of the two empires of the human race.

The human race sent food and weapons and equipment to the barbarians by sea, and even sent a large number of mercenaries to join the war, so that the repeated efforts of the Kingdom of Bemeng to eliminate this scourge for hundreds of years have not been successful.

Recently, the barbarians in the north have made frequent movements, and the Farea Empire adjacent to the south of the kingdom has also shown signs of being ready to move.

In order to suppress the expansion of the situation and give the barbarians a profound lesson, the kingdom issued a conscription order for the three provinces.

As a local nobleman with territory, it is also Leon's obligation to accept the war conscription of the kingdom. Unless he chooses to give up his title and territory, there is no room for refusal.

Of course, this kind of conscription is at most once a year, and the kingdom will also give corresponding compensation according to the record of the territory, which is the best way to promote the title.

According to the requirements conveyed by Tormond, the Salers must send more than 200 soldiers and no less than two warriors to participate in the war, and provide these soldiers and warriors with enough food and complete equipment.

Such requirements are not low. If it falls on a barren autonomous leader, it is enough for the lord to go bankrupt, but it is not a problem for the Sal leader with thousands of soldiers.

"The question is, in what way do we participate in this war?"

In the council hall of the lord's mansion, Concordia, the deputy commander of the Thunder Beast Corps, said, "If it is just to meet the orders of the kingdom, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get enough benefits from it."

In terms of matters related to the kingdom, Concordia, who used to be a family knight, obviously has more say: "We don't have much time left to prepare."

In the face of the conscription order of the kingdom, Leon, as a self-governing lord, has two choices. One is to meet the requirements of the kingdom and send 300 soldiers and two warriors. His duty is completed.

As for the dispatch of these warriors and warriors, they had nothing to do with Salling until the end of the war.

The second choice is that Leon himself leads the army to join the Royal Expeditionary Force, so he has control over his own men and gets military achievements and trophy in the war, which others can't take away.

Compared with the former, the dangerous surname of the second choice is very high, but it also represents the greatest interests.

Which one to choose depends entirely on Leon's choice.

"Our soldiers must not be other people's cannon fodder!" Leon said without hesitation, "I will personally lead 500 soldiers of the Thunder Beast Regiment to participate in this expedition against barbarians. Rock Hammer, Iron and Subaru will go with the regiment. Concordia, you and Aklan stay in the territory. Be careful of the elves in the south."

Leon's decision did not surprise everyone at all, but Rose seemed to want to say something, but she endured it.

With Leon's order, Salling immediately began to mobilize. Because the Thunder Beast Regiment was always in a state of combat readiness, it was very easy to form an expeditionary force at one time.

In order to ensure the supply of the team, Leon takes 400 elite soldiers as the main force, and 100 soldiers act as heavy soldiers to escort supplies. When necessary, these heavy soldiers equipped with standard crossbows are also considerable combat power.

At the same time, he also took out 20 domesticated beasts at a time to form a heavy cavalry team. He raised soldiers for a while, and now it is time to take them out in exchange for combat skills.

In just one day, Salling was ready. Five hundred soldiers were ready to go and could go to Tomond City at any time.

However, the careful Leon was not in a hurry to start. Anyway, there was still a limited time. He ordered a batch of warm clothes and medicine for the expeditionary force to cope with the harsh climate in the north.

Although it is said that when the expeditionary forces are gathered to reach the north, the war will at least be launched in the spring, the climate in the north is completely different from that in the middle of the mainland. If we are not fully prepared, it will be troublesome to have the problem of non-combat reduction.

Although the kingdom is bound to have corresponding preparations, Leon is not used to pinning his hopes on others.

After such a busy day, Leon returned to his residence very late, only to find that Rose had been waiting for him in the room for a long time.

"I want to go with you too!"

She made a direct request and looked up at Leon with stubborn eyes.

"This war is not a fight against gobini, and it is not suitable for you." Leon shook his head and said, "Be obedient..."

He suddenly found that during this period of time, he had been a little negligent to the girl who was silently following him. Looking at her slightly thin face, a trace of pity suddenly surged in his heart, and he couldn't help stretching out his hand to take her into his arms.

Rose did not resist Leon's intimacy. She still raised her head and said, "No, I'm going!"

Reon smiled and still shook his head.

Rose bit her lips hard and suddenly tiptoed and kissed Leon.

It's just that before he could enjoy the gentle taste, a sharp pain came from his lips.

"I hate you!"

The girl ran out of the room without looking back.
