Lord of Riding and Slashing

Chapter 13 Before the War

Marco had just returned from transporting food with Abel's housekeeper. After hearing the news, his expression was very excited. He walked up to Nord and patted his chest to reassure Nord.

"Lord Nord, please rest assured, those are idiots who bully the weak and fear the hard, they are not as good as the beasts in the mountains, the beasts go crazy when they see blood, they... hum!"

Nord saw that although Marco looked excited, he didn't look nervous or scared at all. He was a little curious in his heart, and turned his head to look at other people, all of them were also excited, and he didn't see the tension in his heart at all. Could it be that he was too nervous? Nord was still thinking, and Marco continued.

"We all know that the bandits outside are like a group of hyenas. They can only bully caravans and passers-by without resistance. In the past two years, Brother Lehman shot and killed five people with a hunting bow one after another. How scared are they? The bandits who are robbing the caravan are fleeing."

Marco was very proud, and he waved his right hand, as if it was his own merit, feeling very good.

"I didn't expect Lehman to be so powerful. Why didn't you tell me just now? How is the combat effectiveness of those cavalry?"

Lehman at the front of the convoy heard Nord and Marco talking about him, and smiled a little embarrassedly. This straightforward and honest strong man actually blushed a little after being praised.

"Master Nord, there is nothing to say about these. Those robbers are indeed not a threat, but Bill and other cavalry are hard to say. I have never dealt with them, so it is better to be careful. After all, it is hard to say anything on the battlefield. "

"You're right, we can be confident, but don't underestimate the enemy, then get ready to fight, Marco, you will help Lehman later, don't be impulsive."

Marco didn't take it seriously, and his desire to fight was still high, but he obediently walked to Lehman's side to discuss the precautions for fighting.

As the carriage advanced, everyone came to the shack area. The yellow and thin people in the shack area saw the food on the carriage, and looked eager and fearful. They were afraid of these guards holding bows and arrows, but their desire for food made them unable to move. Legs, can't take my eyes off.

After walking through the entire shack area, it seemed as if they had experienced a silent ceremony of attention. Every time the carriage arrived, the hungry crowd would stop and watch them silently.

The mood of Nord and his party became heavy, as if there was an invisible shackle in their hearts, and they were so oppressive that people could not breathe. Even Marco and Reed, who were active in the crowd, became quiet.

After leaving Christenburg, Nord looked back, seeing both tall castles and messy shacks.

I'll be back, Nord told himself, resentful and helpless.

Just when Nord was full of emotions, Lehman walked past with Marco and Reed. Both of them were a little bit aggrieved, but they didn't dare to show it.

"Lord Nord, Marco and Reed will stay by your side. Although Marco is young, he is indeed one of the best fighters in the village, but he lacks experience. I trained Reed since he was a child. His body is still a little thin, but his combat effectiveness is not bad. It happened to be sent to protect you, and also to prevent them from impulsively going up."

Nord looked at the two dejected young men in front of him, and couldn't help being a little funny. Both of them were eager to fight, but they were sent to the rear by Lehman, and they were a little depressed.

"Just let them stay with me, you go ahead to see the situation first."

Lehman nodded to Nord, and walked to the front of the team. Nord looked back at the two people around him, and was a little curious about Reed. After entering the market, Reed greeted himself and Lehman , slipped into the market alone, did not rush back until just before departure, and was scolded by Lehman.

"What were you doing at the market just now? You haven't been back for so long."

Hearing Nord's question, Reid smiled again, as if he had forgotten the depression just now, and answered with a smile.

"I just went to the market to buy something. I finally came here. My father and elder brother usually don't let me come. Today, I came to the market because of your face, Mr. Nord."

"I bought a hat for my father, and linen for Miss Molly, and maltose for Art and Lysa, and I bought a pair of gloves for my brother, and he scolded me, huh! I don't know What do you need, so I didn't prepare it for you, you won't blame me, right?"

Nord shook his head and smiled.

"No, it's good that you have this intention, but where do you get so much money?"

"The wild fruits and herbs I picked from the mountains were exchanged with them. The wild fruits and herbs I found were better than others. This is my unique ability, and no one else has it."

Reed had a smug face, his head held high like a proud rooster.

"Then your ability is not small, how about being a herald by my side in the future, are you interested?"

"Ah! Really! Lord Nord, I am willing, thank you Lord Nord, I will perform well."

Reed cheered and almost jumped up, his face was very excited, and he kept chanting: "The herald", "I am the herald".

Nord temporarily ignored the overjoyed fool, and turned to look at Marco aside.

"Marco, Lehman sent you to us because he was afraid of impulsive accidents. Don't worry, I'm not incapable of fighting. When there is a need, I will take you up to help them fight together. , now you stay by my side first, "

"Besides, after returning to the village, my guard will expand its recruitment. I heard that you are very prestigious among the young people in the village. Then I will appoint you as the deputy captain to assist Lehman in managing the guard. What do you think? "

Marko felt much better after hearing Nord's comfort, and when he heard that Nord planned to appoint him as the vice-captain, the corners of his mouth were also happy, sweeping away the previous unhappiness.

"Don't worry, Mr. Nord, I will help you call all the outstanding young people in the village. I know who is good, and I will study hard with Brother Lehman. I will definitely live up to your expectations."

Marco is also looking passionate now, wishing he could go back to the village now, gather all those little friends, and join Nord's guard together.

Seeing the two young men full of fighting spirit, Nuo De breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. These are all materials that can be made. If they are trained well, they will be of great use in the future. After all, thousands of soldiers are easy to get, but one general is hard to find. No matter when, talents are always rare, and it would be great if they can be cultivated slowly.

The area between Christenburg and Tammy Village is mostly mountainous, with jungles and lush trees. For fear of being ambushed, the road is very careful and walks very slowly.

After a long time, the distance was only halfway. Nord was also a little anxious, but he couldn't urge Lehman now. You must know that Lehman has much more experience than himself. It’s not as good as Zhao Kuo. After all, Zhao Kuo is still familiar with the art of war, and he has only read a few movies and novels. It’s better not to command blindly, and leave it to a professional to solve it.
