Chapter 09 Business Manager

Twenty miles southwest of Huya Hill, in a dense forest.

The Blue Ancestor's cavalry was temporarily resting in the woods. After nearly a month of fighting behind enemy lines, the once scattered mercenaries gradually became battlefield veterans.

When I stopped to rest, there were already arranged mercenaries to be responsible for the periphery and whistle detectives. The remaining mercenaries either leaned on the tree to take a break or wiped their weapons silently. They would never see the scene of gathering together to drink and bragging together.

Arthur led his troops all the way and rushed to the vicinity of Huya Hill one day and one night in advance. After temporarily setting the mercenaries in the woods, he and Aretha got up and went to Huya Hill fortress.

Arthur knew the importance of the strategic path of Huyaqiu, so he became suspicious of the army's intelligence. He wanted to use this day to check the military information in the fortress himself.

The Tiger Teeth Hill is a terrain between two hills and one ditch. The two continuous low hills are covered with rocks and weeds. A hundred-meter-long gap is broken between the two hills. The broken holes of the hills on both sides extend obliquely, and they are named as a pair of barking tiger teeth. The wide official road leading to the imperial capital is being built between the two hills. Because of its important strategic location, the Rock Kingdom built a solid fortress here under the hill terrain.

Arthur and Aretha gradually approached the Huya Hill Fortress from the hills on one side. At this time, the sky was completely dark, and lights had already been lit on the stone walls on both sides and in the fortress.

With the help of the fire, there are still vaguely counting sea warriors patrolling and guarding the city walls.

The city walls on both sides of the Huya Hill Fortress are made of stones. The city walls on the south side are more than ten meters high and three or four meters thick. Although the city walls are not tall, it is still not easy to let cavalry attack the city.

"Depending on the size of this fortress, at most, 3,000 human troops are stationed. If it were a taller sea clan, the number of soldiers in this fortress would never exceed 2,000, and the intelligence of the legion should not be too different." Aretha said softly from the side.

"Even if the information is not in and out, capturing this fortress is not easy for the cavalry, and a large number of casualties are bound to be inevitable." Arthur said with concern.

"It is best to meet with the other two cavalry regiments as soon as possible, discuss plans in advance, and cooperate with the three parties to minimize casualties as much as possible."

There seemed to be no better way. Arthur and Aretha observed for a while, but did not find any abnormalities before quietly retreating.

......

Arthur and his team met with two other cavalry regiments in the afternoon the next day.

After seeing these two teams, Arthur's already low interest was completely broken. These two cavalry regiments were pieced together by private troops of more than 20 small nobles. The main force in the army was mainly second-level soldiers. Some soldiers had uneven armor, so the combat effectiveness could be imagined.

These two cavalry regiments were very happy to meet the Blue Ancestor. Arthur's brave deeds were spread throughout the kingdom's noble circle. Looking at the elite warriors with magical shimmering weapons and equipment behind him, it seemed that the next battle was sure to win.

Arthur had no hope of them anymore and took all the main attack tasks, but asked the opponent to wait until the city wall was broken before leading the army into the fortress.

After arguing the attack time and signal, the three cavalry regiments were stationed not far apart, waiting for the attack time to come and act together.

As soon as the other party left Qiong, he came over, "When two armies are fighting a siege together, is there someone in the Zhenhai Army deliberately cheating us?"

Hardy's cold eyes flashed through Arthur's mind, but he still said expressionlessly: "Even if he is framed, he cannot openly disobey orders at this time. Tell the mercenary brothers below that it is time to fight to the death. If you want to not die here tonight, you will take out all their methods of silence!"

Even without the support of other troops, Arthur was full of confidence in winning this battle. The difference was just the price he paid. More than half of Arthur's cavalry regiment, mainly Huaores mercenaries, had the strength of War Captains or above, and there were more than 200 people with the strength of Level 5 and Six War Captains. In addition to Arthur and others, there were five or six mercenary commanders who were also warriors in the war school.

With so many high-end combat power gathered, the true strength of the Blue Ape Cavalry Regiment is comparable to that of Strech and the Lion King Elliot. Moreover, these old mercenaries who walk on the brink of danger every day do not have one or two ways to protect themselves, escape or treasures at critical moments.

Joan was about to turn around and convey the order, but Arthur was grabbed by him, "We may have to do a loss-making deal in this battle, let the fire dragon fly as much as possible!"

Qiong nodded in pain.

......

Alantis, Yunxiao Trading Company.

Collored stood on one side of the living room with his hands down. On the main seat was a slightly fat old man in white. He was full of energy, red face, and only had slightly frosty temples. He looked like he was only fifty or sixty years old.

Those who know the inside story know that the shopkeeper has been in charge of the old prince for nearly fifty years, and now he is at least a hundred years old.

Although the battle at the Sauron Canyon and the Holy Sword Peak was lost, Serenda, Samiler and others, those people were just tools and operating costs that could be made for the No. 1 business in the human race. Before Serenda died, it inversely inspired the "Secret Stone" to destroy the seal. When the big thing was completed, the business still made a steady profit without losing money.

Because of this, Collored was also a great achievement, so he was fortunate to be summoned by the shopkeeper himself.

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and signaled Collored to sit down and talk.

"The business bank can always hold the position of the number one business bank in the human race because of talents. I have already told the old prince about your affairs, and the old prince also appreciates you very much!"

Collored, who had just sat down, immediately stood up and saluted, "I just did some things for the business. The old prince and the big shopkeeper are so kind to me!"

"The business bank has always been clear about rewards and punishments. With your achievements, you should be promoted to the head of the branch of a country, but there are no vacancies in the jurisdiction of each country. I want to arrange a new position for you."

"I will do my best to the storekeeper even if he gives me instructions."

The shopkeeper nodded with satisfaction, "I did not read you wrong. I will go to the Norman Kingdom with my token and meet Prime Minister Lu Lan of the Sea Clan."

Collored bowed and waited for the next order from the shopkeeper.

"This time you meet Prime Minister Lu Lan to do two things. The first thing is to build up the trade channel of the sea clan. Pearls produced in the deep sea. Corals are a scarce commodity on the mainland, special ores produced in the undersea volcano. The strange objects that assist in the cultivation of water magic are also flocked to warriors and magicians. As for what the sea clan needs, you can also get a list. As long as there are on the mainland, our business has channels. In the future, you will be fully responsible for the trade with the sea clan."

Collored was overjoyed and saluted again to thank him.

The shopkeeper continued: "The second thing is to bring him two words from the old prince."

"You said, I will definitely record it."

"The first sentence of the old prince is that Yunxiao Trading Company does not mind who is the emperor. No matter who is the emperor, the interests of the trading company cannot be moved by how much territory the sea clan occupies."

"The second original sentence of the old prince is to ask Lu Lan to tell the Sea King that letting the Sea Clan come out is not for them to take revenge or seize the land. That big event is the mission of the Sea Clan!"
