“Um~” late at night, when Teresa went to the guest room to take a break, in the master room, Ryan was chatting with Olica and moved towards her bed which was wrapped in a quilt. Yituo said with a smile: “Veronica~Come out!”

“This is really me, the most humiliating day of my life!” The Garland Witch still wrapped herself in a quilt, her voice Has been fluxed and exasperated: “I actually lost to Trovik, the Little Princess of Garland! Um~ Ryan, hug me!” Ryan had to hug Veronica from the quilt She came out and hugged her on her lap. Even so, Witch Garland buried her head in his chest and didn’t want to get up. Ryan stroked the witch’s back lightly: “It’s normal that you can’t beat her, Teresa’s. Although her strength is slightly weaker than you, her full set of equipment and staff are much stronger than you.”

After that, Ryan seemed to remember something, and he couldn’t help but laugh again. Up.

“You’re still smiling!!!” Veronica was so angry that she twisted her man’s waist, then she remembered something, and once again buried her red face in Ryan’s chest in.

When Ryan rushed to the reception room, Witch Garland was tied to the sofa by a big five flowers. Her eyes were red and she was about to cry. Ryan quickly untied the rope and hugged her to comfort her for a long time.

Ryan is not surprised that Veronica will lose to Teresa. In terms of strength, Teresa is slightly weaker than Veronica, but compared to the full set of equipment and Magic Scroll… Besides, Veronica is good at Light Element and Fire Element magic, and she is indeed not Teresa’s opponent when she can’t fully open it.

“Okay, it’s okay, Veronica, I won’t underestimate you because of this.” Ryan had to continue comforted: “It doesn’t matter if you fail, you can beat her again in the future.”

“Hmph~ I originally made an appointment with her. If she loses to me, she will get out immediately, but I didn’t expect that she actually got a seven-ring magic scroll from Aurora Elder. “Veronica finally eased, she sat on Ryan’s lap, hugging his neck and complained: “at first and evenly matched, Ryan, my feet are sore, help me rub it~”

Ryan smiled and helped Witch Garland rub up her shredded feet, sighing in her heart: Veronica is really a smart woman, she knows exactly what she wants. It is not important to lose to Teresa in magic, and the witch immediately took this opportunity to find him back.

Teresa still needs experience.

…………

Since the sorcerer also came to Ryan’s territory, the open strife and veiled struggle between the two witches began, and Teresa prevailed in the capital Abundant, Veronica is smart and smart. The two witches battled wits and bravely made Ryan read a lot of jokes. Of course, it was Baron himself who got the benefit in the end.

at first Teresa was still very unconvinced, always thinking that she was the best, until she met Su Liya.

The appearance of the daughter of the Duke finally made her understand something.

Ryan can’t manage that many anymore. Baron has his own business to do.

That’s about artillery.

When Ryan first mentioned the artillery matter to the dwarf craftsman, Deron actually refused, because Ryan could not tell him to do artillery.

Here we have to mention the “holy alliance” between the empire and the dwarven supreme king. Even after countless years, this covenant is still kept by the empire and the dwarves. Among them, the secret of gunpowder is The dwarves selflessly shared gifts to the empire, and the powerful gunpowder weapons opened a new page about the war.

So the empire and the dwarves strictly adhered to the agreement before, and jointly kept the gunpowder technology secret. In Bretania on the gray mountain range, the only artillery the Knights can get are some of the outdated old-fashioned that the empire has eliminated. Most of the cannons can only be used to defend the city, and they are not convenient to carry and transport.

So what is the most important siege weapon in Bretania?

It is a trebuchet.

Ryan has seen this giant siege weapon firsthand in Curona. It is composed of about six to eight large wooden parts. Through a series of levers, gears and crimping mechanisms, the trebuchet The huge straight arm was pulled down into the firing position, and the other end was connected to a huge stone counterweight. A huge lasso is attached to the long arm of the trebuchet, which can hold rocks, wreckage of stone buildings and even dead animals. When the trebuchet fires, the extra momentum added by the lasso to the moving arm makes the rock thrown. The machine can have a longer range and greater power than ordinary stone crossbows.

If Ryan sees it from the eyes of the celestial court, this thing is the “returning gun” used by the Mongols to siege cities.

The trebuchet is extremely powerful. It can be said that compared to the giant cannons of the empire, the trebuchet is not inferior in power. The huge stones thrown by the trebuchet can destroy the enemies of the overwhelming majority, even The nightmare of many greenskins and wild beasts who like to act in groups. The disadvantages of trebuchets are that they are inconvenient to carry, inconvenient to load and unload, and the rate of fire of trebuchets is obviously much slower than that of artillery.

Under the personal blessing of the prophet of the lake god and even the goddess witch, the trebuchet strengthened by the gods can throw three times the stones and additional magic damage, which proves the super power of the trebuchet.

However, most Knights still generally show contempt for these machines, and several dukes refuse to use them altogether. Nevertheless, owning a trebuchet is still a symbol of wealth and status. The manufacture of a trebuchet requires a long time and hand-made by craftsmen. There are only a limited number of craftsmen in Bretania who can make this powerful war machine, and the lord They all eagerly need them to serve themselves. Although the Knights will not operate this kind of war machine by themselves, they can still barely understand the strategic value of the trebuchet. The serfs will be ordered by the lord to operate this precious. The war machine, because the serfs could not win the honor, nor could they understand the meaning of fighting for the ladies.

The craftsmen who can make trebuchets in the kingdom are all in Lyonasse or Montfert. Taking the bad relationship between Ryan and these two dukes, it is basically impossible to seconde craftsmen to make trebuchets.

It’s the summer season. Ryan took his subordinates, Knight Olivier, Hex and Steward Katzenberg to the dwarf man-made workshop in Chinon River to check the latest results.

“My Baron, since the dwarves don’t want to share their skills, why can you convince them to make artillery for you?” Steward Katzenberg’s big bald head reflected bright light in the sun. The steward of Baron shaves his head every ten days.

“I can’t let the dwarves share artillery technology with us, but we can hire dwarves.” Ryan carried his hands on his back and moved towards the inside of the workshop: “I reached an agreement with Mr. Deron He made artillery for us, and we hired dwarf engineers to operate the artillery.”

“Dwarf mercenary?” Olivier was very interested in this, as the young Knight introduced by Grand Duke Schultz of Marienburg , Fighting side by side with dwarves does not seem to matter, in the empire, mercenaries are also commonplace.

Hecks, who has a serious character, looks a bit suspicious. After these few battles, the temperament of knight-errant Knight has become more and more stable. He is responsible for most of the training in the territory. Baron leads the way. There are more than 50 sergeants and more than 300 infantrymen, and Hecks has trained them to have a certain battle strength.

Neither Ryan’s training method nor Anglang’s training method is suitable for training these serf soldiers, because the situation is different. That kind of intensity training is not suitable for serfs who cannot guarantee food supply and adequate nutrition. It’s too difficult to say.

“My Baron, Brittany has no tradition of hiring dwarves… We have only hired mercenaries from the empire, and with the king’s permission, you directly hire dwarves like this, do you… …To be discussed?” Hecks said hesitantly.

“I have already prayed to the lady, and she agreed to this request.” Ryan didn’t care, he announced his decision directly: “The dwarf brother is our friend, and we will fight together.”

Neither Olivier, Katzenberg, or Hux has more opinions.

If a 26-year-old Baron said this, the Knights might snort disdainfully and would not believe it at all, thinking that Baron was lying, a complete lie.

But Ryan is different. When he said this, the Knights and even their sergeants were convinced that their lord had done too many miracles, and the lady in the lake showed him Divine Vestige came out time after time. He is the lady’s champion of choice and the favorite Knight of the lake fairies. Since Ryan said that the lake fairies agree, then the lake fairies must agree.

Thinking of having a giant cannon with dwarves to assist the attack, the Knights couldn’t help but feel a little excited. The Knight of Brittany was originally known as the number one Knight in the old world. If you can have the help of artillery…

When we arrived at the Dwarf Man’s Workshop, a whole team of dwarf mercenaries was already waiting. The leading dwarf wore a round helmet, and his long beard covered half of his stomach, behind him Carrying two large long-tube fire guns and a long white bread in his mouth, they were far apart, and everyone could smell a thick black powder from his body.

“Hello, those with long beards.” After identifying the length of the dwarf’s beard and the gold and silver jewelry on the beard, Ryan said in a respectful tone: “Welcome to my Territory, I’m Baron here, the Holy Grail Knight Ryan-Makado.”

“I’ve heard your name, Baron, the champion of women’s choice in the lake, killing a bunch of green skins, And chaos champion.” The dwarf widened his eyes. He raised his head and both hands crossed near chest: “Deron told me that you can bring jobs and income to my brother sisters, and I couldn’t finish drinking the malt, so I brought my brother sisters. My name is Dugan-Tiehan. It’s nice to meet you.”

“Yes, my Baron , When you said that you need to hire a team of dwarf mercenaries, I immediately thought of my good friend Dugan. He is an excellent fighter and an engineering expert.” Deron walked out of the workshop: ” He knows how to make the artillery you want, heavy cannons and organ cannons… as long as the price is right.”

“Very well, how many clansman do you have?” Ryan nodded repeatedly, he moved towards Dugan Asked.

“Almost more than 100, of which more than 60 are excellent fighters and workers.” Dugan raised his head: “We have been wandering in the mountains for too long, maybe Deron said it. Yes, it’s time to come out and look for a job. We can’t let the child go hungry.”

“I am willing to accept you and your clansman, but I hope you will abide by the rules in my territory. Also, the unfinished malt liquor needs to be exchanged with the results of your labor and work.” Ryan moved towards the dwarf stretched out his hand.

“A fair decision. We never take advantage of the human brother. I believe you, the Holy Grail Knight, will not treat us badly.” Dugan agreed, and the dwarf reached out and shook his hand: “Also , Dwarves are never afraid of fighting. If there is any war, dwarves will never escape!”

“So…Kasenberg, I will leave you with the specific arrangements for these dwarves’ communities.” Ryan told His own steward said: “Remember, keep them away from the pointed ears. I don’t want to watch the war of long beards play out for the second time in my territory.”

“Okay, I Baron, I will arrange a safe place for them. Actually, Baron, your territory seems to have been blessed by a lady. After coming to Jeanne, I have never received greenskins and wilds. The trouble of beast people.” Katzenberg nodded repeatedly, he was wearing a pair of round frame sunglasses, this is a masterpiece of a short craftsman. It was made by Deron using some iron scraps and glass. It was unexpectedly extremely popular. Orders are endless.

“hehe~you should be blessed by the lady.” Ryan smiled disapprovingly.

In the face of greenskins and wild beasts, Anglang and the Forbidden Army are both execute without any mercy. Only those fugitives who can’t survive become robbers, for the sake of human beings. Anglang and the Forbidden Army turned a blind eye.

Lops and Olivier are mainly doing this. The two Knights often bring their troops to destroy nearby robber dens. One is training soldiers, and the other is also making some extra money. They At the farthest time, he had already entered another duchy.

Dugan did not understand what Ryan they were discussing. This dwarf is not good at human language. He moved towards Deron and said, “Is this human really credible?”

“Don’t worry, I have done it for him for several months. This human being is indeed credible and very powerful. It is still a younger brother.” Deron was very satisfied with his beard: “He has everything here, and Unlike many aristocrats in this country, he will not point fingers at our behavior, he is willing to give us full power, and the tax collected is much lower than other territories. Let me say, this is a good place, I will stay here. Now.”

“Is it just a younger brother so powerful?” Dugan was surprised. He looked at Deron’s greasy beard enviously.

For dwarves, the beard is a symbol of status, age and status. The beard needs to be combed and washed frequently to be beautiful. Deron’s beard is so beautiful that Dugan is envious.

“Yes, if you have met his big brother, you will know how strong his big brother is, and he still seems to know some unknown secrets. Look at this.” Deron took out the rune that Ryan had given him: “I have searched through all the ancient books, but I have not found any record of this kind of rune. I have written to the chief rune lord of the dwarves at the Eternal Peak, Master Clark-Sterner, please He took a look at the origins of this rune. Perhaps, this will be the most significant discovery of the dwarf in hundreds of years.”

“What a mysterious lord.” Dugan nodded: “Okay, let us first Settle down. After so many wars and wanderings, it’s time for clansman to have a home.”

Just when Knight reached an agreement with the dwarves, this group of dwarves will make their homes here. The wood elves appeared.

The wood elf headed by Ryan is the woodland lord Dai Linna: “Hello, Lord Ryan, you are finally back, we I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

“What can friends in the forest want me for?”
