Chapter 173: Gift Package

"What? You want to give me all the caravan guards?"

"Sir, it's not a gift, it's a loan, it's a loan, and you can lend it to your command."

"Oh, how can you be so embarrassed? Are you qualified?"

“If you are willing to pay some money…”

"I have no money."

"Then you don't have any money, just provide them with food and accommodation."

"Is this what you mean?"

"This is a common decision of our businessmen. We hope to work together with you and drive away the Aragonese outside."

"good!"

So in a pleasant laugh, Roger sent away the businessman representative.

Excited Roger looked at the "big gift package" outside the city lord's mansion.

There were a caravans and horse-riding guards gathered there.

They had 60 people, each equipped with excellent armor, weapons and horses, and they were obviously piled up with money.

It looks very powerful.

But Roger, who gradually calmed down, found that these cavalry gathered there, some chatting, some looked around, and some sorted out their clothes, and they were clamoring, and the line was not neat and tight.

Roger felt that this team lacked military literacy.

But worse is that Roger did not see murderous aura in the eyes of these people.

Roger was a little disappointed. He understood that this team was at best just a well-equipped militia, and there was still a lot of gaps away from regular soldiers.

But he thought about it again and said that having is better than not.

What's more, according to previous online statements, a group of sheep commanded by a lion can defeat a group of lions commanded by a sheep.

Roger doesn't think he is a sheep.

He sent a Norman Knight to lead the caravan and horse-riding militia.

He asked the butler to arrange food and accommodation for them.

Roger began to think.

He wondered, why would the merchants who had been fighting with him take the initiative to hand over their guard Knight?

He thought it seemed to be related to last night's battle.

Although the mass and propaganda had not yet begun, these well-informed merchants had obviously known the situation of the war.

Roger thought that the merchants were optimistic about him and raised bets on him.

He thought again that these caravans could not escape the business, and the caravan guards were in vain. People were eating horses and chewing them was also a expense, and they could save some money even if they threw them to themselves.

He hummed twice and said to himself: "This group of profitable businessmen who cannot afford to get up early."

Roger counted the troops in his hand and he had a new idea.

He thought that with this team of cavalry, perhaps he could consider fighting the enemy outside the city.

The next morning, the church bells echoed throughout the city.

Rubio brought an Aragonian officer into the city.

This Aragonese looked like a brave man.

He calmly participated in the entire Mass of the Dead among a group of Castiles.

Roger met with officer Aragon.

The officer took the initiative to salute Roger: "Mr. Lord, thank you for your kindness, may God bless you."

Roger politely returned the gift.

He wanted to say, for my kindness, can you let me go?

But there were many Castiles around him, and Roger couldn't say this.

He could only continue his plan, he said:

"I am a kind person, I treat my opponents kindly and my subordinates kindly, and in fact, I have a request."

"Master, please tell me clearly."

"There is a businessman in the city. He received a letter from his home before your siege. His mother was seriously ill.

"I wonder, can you let him go so that he can go home and visit his seriously ill mother."

"Master Lord, you want to send out the news of asking for help."

Roger felt his skin was hot.

He wondered why those time travelers met with mentally retarded opponents when they read books before, and why was it his turn that they were all so smart?

Roger said awkwardly: "It's true that the businessman's mother is seriously ill..."

"No problem, Lord City Lord. You asked the merchant to leave the city and we will let him go.

"And I promise you that we will not search him, and it's okay if you want him to bring any letters."

Roger was surprised by the aura of officer Aragon.

Roger thought that the mass of the dead would have such an effect, if I asked them to withdraw their troops...

Officer Aragon probably thought Roger's hesitation was questioning his words.

He explained: "My Lord, I am not talking nonsense.

"In fact, before we came out, Your Majesty sent us a message, asking us not to block it too tightly and deliberately miss a few people who reported the message.

"So, Lord, please send the messenger with confidence, we will miss him."

"When you came, why did you kill the merchants who left the city?"

The officer pointed to the direction of the church and said disdainfully: "The squadron leader has some of his own ideas."

Roger looked dull and asked someone to send the officer away.

He thought, I really should have thought of it earlier, that guy Alfonso never cared about letting his own people die in order to win.

He thought that Alfonso asked the Knights of Santiago to attack Toledo, and he would be the leader of the Knights for the Knights.

In fact, Alfonso's fundamental purpose is to let Count Pedro Gonzalez, opposite him, divide his troops.

The more troops Pedro was separated to rescue Toledo, the greater the possibility that Alfonso would win on the main battlefield.

As for whether the Knights of Santiago can withstand the attacks of reinforcements, it is estimated that Alfonso will hand over this issue to "St. Jacob".

Roger figured it out that the squadron leader who was cheated by him must not want to put himself in the position of bait.

So he was anxious to raid and was unwilling to accept the steady and steady style of playing Don Basco Lopez, the leader of the Knights.

Because he wanted to grab time so as not to be attacked from both sides when attacking Toledo.

But he could not tell the leader of the Knights that "Your Majesty dug a hole for you", so he could only see if the sneak attack could be successful.

The bitter-faced businessman left the city with great gratitude and took Roger's handwritten letter.

He assured Roger that he would hand it to Count Pedro Gonzalez as fast as possible.

The Javelin Cavalry outside the city really kept their promises and let the bitter face leave.

Roger, who was standing at the top of the city, looked at the back of the bitter face, and he wanted to say: Actually, I want to change it with him.

But the priest, officer Rubio, and all the soldiers next to him would probably not agree to him.

Roger gave up on his fantasy and he was determined to start another plan.

He was going to kill two teams of Javelin cavalry outside the city before the arrival of the Santiago Knights.

Roger bent his bow and shot an arrow with a cloth strip.

On the cloth strip is a war book written by Roger himself.

"You dare to fight."

The other party quickly gave an answer:

"If you want to fight, you will fight."
