Rise In Calradia

Chapter 430: Go north after rest

The continuous high-intensity battles exhausted Byron and his allies' troops. For the past month or so, they have either been fighting, preparing for a fight, or on their way to a fight. Many were richly rewarded, but died in another battle before they could use the splurge. After both sides in the Rhodocan civil war were defeated in ignominious ways by Byron, they finally had a little rest.

Originally, it was actually the best choice to continue chasing and completely wipe out the opponent's vital forces under such circumstances. Of course Byron knew this, but when he planned to give the order, except for the Eastern Rhodoks who had just arrived, the rest All the troops asked their officers to stop and rest, and some of the troops were as frightening as a mutiny. Under the circumstances that most of the troops behaved like this, Byron had to give up this idea, and turned to collect spoils and start disposing of the prisoners, so that the soldiers had time to repair, recuperate their bodies, repair their armor and weapons, and then have fun. After all, going north is impossible. Those who are procrastinating must revive morale as soon as possible.

Of course, Byron still sent a small number of light cavalry scouts to track down the fleeing coalition and royal soldiers, lest they catch him by surprise when they gathered to attack him.

When Byron announced this, the cheers of the soldiers were like boiling. They fully felt the joy of defeating a powerful enemy and the satisfaction of being compensated after the victory. Byron promised them to distribute the spoils to them, and gave them seven days off to squander their dinars at will. Of course, this was all after they cleaned the battlefield.

Byron had to admit that he had taken advantage of the Rhodok civil war. Although he failed to kill or capture a certain lord, there are loot all over the place to pick up, and there are more than 1,000 captives waiting for his disposal.

After the defeat of the coalition forces, the fleeing soldiers discarded their armor and armor. Their weapons and armor were all loaded into carriages by Byron's scavenging team, and half of them would be picked up by Byron to repair and arm those poor soldiers who did not have enough dinars to arm themselves. equipment, the other half will be distributed directly to the soldiers.

Not to mention all kinds of supplies. Both sides of the war mobilized hundreds of horse-drawn carts to transport supplies. Except for those that were collected from the people and returned, the rest belonged to Byron, and the whole truckload of supplies It also directly cleared Byron's current logistical pressure. Even if they no longer use other means to supply supplies in the future, this batch of supplies is enough for them to march to Paraven.

The only regret is that although the soldiers of the army will carry some cash dinars to buy food and equipment, the amount is not too much. Even if all the dinars from the corpses of the soldiers on both sides are collected, it is not enough to persuade Kenrad He promised a large sum of money for the number promised by the mercenaries when they turned their backs.

In fact, if there were a large number of captives, a large amount of ransom could have been obtained, but Byron, the soldier of the Royal Army, basically released them all unconditionally. After all, almost all of them came from the territory of King Graves, and this land now belongs to For myself, extorting ransom will only make them unable to pay taxes. In the end, not only did they not make money, but they also lost their hearts. He could only call the ransom brokers in the surrounding area to deal with the rest of the captives, and got 32,000 dinars, half of which were provided by those wealthy peasant families and noble officers, and any one of them could pay The ransom is more than ten times that of an ordinary spearman.

On the whole, the capture in the battle is not bad, at least it can make up for his previous war expenses, and by the way, he can boost the morale of the army.

For the next seven days, I simply relax myself. The fighters who had been suppressed for an unknown amount of time poured into the cities of Veluga and Jerkala to revel, because there were too many people in the city, and even the surrounding towns and villages were crowded. The soldiers occupied all the taverns they could find, drank all the alcoholic drinks they could find, and ate almost all the meat and fresh vegetables in the local markets. Veruga’s underground casino openly gambles on the street, because there are too many people in the room to let it go, the bosses are very happy, these soldiers can lose thousands of dinars in their casino in a day, It's just their previous month's turnover, and even so, their pockets are not dry at all. As for brothels, let alone, once lying on a woman's stomach, many people never want to get up again. These prostitutes never imagined that one day they would be so sought after, because as soon as they opened, a group of people would flock to him, whistling and waving their purses, and they didn't even need to go to bed. The dizzy northern soldiers who were given to drink in the tavern danced a little more seductive dance and could collect silver coins on the ground for a long time, many of which were silver.

The people in Gelkala were very disappointed, and they were quite wary of outsiders. Although Byron released their soldiers to a certain extent, the tension between the two sides was relieved, but this could not eliminate the widows, orphans, and disabled soldiers all over the city. And the hatred of the old man who lost his son. The townspeople were very virile in the face of the dinars offered by Byron's soldiers, refusing to accept coins apparently extra from the king's coffers, calling them "thieves" or "bandits," and sometimes Spitting on the money caused dozens of conflicts. In the end, the soldiers left angrily, and rushed to Veruga in a crowded carriage before the end of the holiday, leaving the busy coachman who had almost no time to sleep. They made a lot of money, and even ran the horse to death.

Now, the people of Veruga are almost at the carnival. In the past few days, they were overwhelmed by thousands of foreign "tourists", which seriously affected their original lives. Prices are soaring, drunks roam the streets in groups, and the smell of vomit can't go away for a long time. Every street has at least 20 people patrolling to prevent drunken soldiers from making trouble. It's really annoying. But on the other hand, all the people doing business in the city made a lot of money, and it happened that handicrafts and commerce were the absolute mainstream in this city, so almost everyone benefited from it. And when the first wave of soldiers who entered the city were still calmed down after a few days of carnival, another group of soldiers hurried over from Jerkala, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com started a new round of carnival .

Vendors in the surrounding area kept pouring out food and drinks, and many women in gorgeous clothes entered the city in a carriage. For a while, Verugha became a city of indulgence, and even Lesarit obeyed Byron His orders pampered them for a week.

Of course, there are still a small number of soldiers whose hometowns were originally in this area, so they returned to their hometowns with their trophies and the suicide notes and relics of their dead comrades, and enjoyed a period of warm time at home with their families.

As for Byron and the others, naturally they would not waste time. When the soldiers were having a carnival, they had to pay attention to various news while dealing with occupation matters. They were extremely busy.

-----Off Topic-----

Thanks to the smoking pig and Longlong's black coffee for the 100 starting coins

Apparently, Banyue Wenqing has not updated in the past two days because Byron is also giving the soldiers a holiday, and he has to wait until they have finished their rest before continuing to write the plot, which is also impossible.
