Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 293: The Garrison of the Lion Knights

Kant did not hesitate for long. When the sun had slightly subsided at noon, he led the team and set off.

The camel caravan made up of 50 single-humped camels was different from when they came. It was full of all kinds of goods left behind by the merchants, such as iron tools, farm tools, and grain. Currently, the “Drondheim” Castle was in urgent need of supplies.

And just behind the camel caravan, there were long hemp ropes stretching out, and more than 300 captives with their heads lowered were tied in ropes.

These captives would become the best labor force.

Kant was telling the truth when he said that he would transport all these captives to the salt mines and make them slaves to shovel salt.

In that desolate area, no civilians were willing to go there. Even if they loved labor, they still had to rotate every month. Otherwise, the cruel and desolate salt and alkali soil would drive them crazy.

Since they were captives, there was no human rights for them.

They could not understand it.

As long as they sent a few footmen as guards, they could make these captives into obedient slaves.

Oh, perhaps it was a little different.

It should be said that if they let these captives see the depths of the Nahrin Desert, the endless saline-alkali beaches and sand seas, they would understand that without Kant’s supplies, they would not be able to survive.

The cruel Nahrin Desert could obliterate the strongest humans in the endless sand sea.

The day was as hot as a steamer.

The night was as cold as an ice cellar.

There was no food, no water, no shelter, no camels.

Moreover, they had no experience of surviving in the desert.

If they fell into the Nahrin Desert, even if they escaped Kant’s control and obtained their so-called freedom, it was only a shortcut to death. There was no other way.

If they wanted to live, they could only obediently choose to follow orders.

Therefore, Kant was very assured of them.

Even the surrounding Swadian Knights were scattered all around. They did not pay any attention to these captives who had their hands behind their backs as they trudged along with the camel caravan in the desert.

Just by relying on these captives who were unarmed, hungry, and extremely tired. it was not enough to start an insurrection that could not be resolved.

Moreover.

Kant did not mind killing some of the disobedient captives.

The march was not too slow.

Soon, just before the end of the new Monday, Kant and his knights returned to the Oasis Lookout with a caravan full of goods and exhausted captives in the twilight.

In the early morning, nearly 70,000 denars had been deducted for the maintenance of the army.

Kant’s savings had been cut by more than half.

But when he returned to the Oasis Lookout, he received good news.

Joslin had personally led the trade caravan to Pendor, which had just returned this morning. Not only was it full of goods, but it had also brought Kant a profit of 300,000 denars.

Five whole bags of gold had been sold out in the capital of the Kingdom of Sarleon.

This was really good news.

After getting Firentis to arrange the captives and the trade caravan, Kant quickly returned to the council hall.

Joslin was waiting in the hall.

When he saw Kant enter, he immediately smiled and placed his hand on his chest. “Lord Kant, this trade did not disappoint you. On Pendor Continent, the Kingdom of Sarleon alone had bought all of the gold. Moreover, the king of Sarleon, King Ulric, expressed his heartfelt respect for opening the trade route. He even entrusted me to pass you a gift to show his respect for you.”

As he spoke, Joslin took out a letter and respectfully handed it to Kant with both hands. At the same time, he lamented, “It’s all thanks to you, Lord Kant. You’ve restored our Joslin family’s reputation and restored our noble status.”

“Mm, congratulations, Joslin.”

Kant was slightly stunned.

Although he still did not understand what had happened, he still took the letter and sat back in his seat. He calmly said, “This trip to Pendor has yielded a lot, hasn’t it?”

“Of course, it was all thanks to your wise decision.”, Joslin sighed from the bottom of his heart.

“Yes.”

Kant nodded and opened the envelope.

There were exquisite patterns on it. It was the traditional lion emblem from the Kingdom of Sarleon.

It was similar to the Kingdom of Swadia, but because Sarleon was stronger, the patterns were more exquisite, and the patterns were clearer. Even the texture of the paper felt delicate. The ink used for writing even had the smell of perfume.

Kant couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

The original kingdom was indeed very different from these MOD kingdoms.

The strength of the country could be reflected by these letters.

Caradia was similar to the middle of the Middle Ages on Earth, while Pendor was more like the later period. If it was the “Wind of War”, it was more like the modern era with fantasy magic, so the strength of each country was different.

This also caused the MOD to bring different help to Kant.

This time, the letter of King Ulric from Sarleon.

It was filled with respect for Kant. Although it was useless nonsense, at the end, there was also a gift from the Kingdom of Sarleon, a promise from the lord.

Kant would be the honorary lord of the Kingdom of Sarleon.

He could exercise all the laws of the Kingdom of Sarleon and enjoy all the glory of the Kingdom of Sarleon.

Including the establishment of the Order of Lion.

On his retina, the system dialog box suddenly popped up.

[ Ding... System Prompt ]

[ You have obtained the promise of the Kingdom of Sarleon. With the identity of the Lord of Sarleon, you can officially establish a knight order, Order of Lion in the estate. And because of your identity as an honorary lord, the Kingdom of Sarleon will recognize knights from other kingdoms. You can also promote them to be a member of the Order of Lion. ]

[ Remark: A rare item [ Order of Lion Medal ] and a rare item [ Sword of the King ] have been detected. With this medal as the foundation, you can use 10,000 reputation points and 100,000 denars to officially build the Order of Lion Garrison. In this garrison, other knights can also join the Order of Lion for systematic learning. ]

Kant glanced at the system prompt.

Compared to when he first obtained [ Sword of the King ] , there were already completely different changes.

Just like the remark at that time did not mention that other knights could also join the Order of Lion and become members. They would undergo systematic training and be promoted to a stronger troop class.

Obviously, now, after the recognition of the Kingdom of Sarleon, Kant’s authority had been greatly opened up.

For example, the official construction of the [ Order of Lion Garrison ] , this key building!

“A new level 6 extraordinary knight.”

Kant narrowed his eyes slightly.

Based on his experience from his previous life, he naturally understood the Order of Lion very well. They were completely different from the Swadian Royal Knights. They were equivalent to a new level 6 extraordinary knight. They belonged to the Pendor Continent, the top troop class of the Kingdom of Sarleon!

They were level 6 extraordinary knights that were even higher than the Sarleon Knights!

They were on the same level as the Swadian Royal Knights.

However, even though they were both level 6 cavalries, the combat styles and tactics of both sides were completely different.

This was the limitation of national strength.

Take the Kingdom of Swadia for example. It was the number one powerful cavalry country in the Continent of Caradia. Its heavy cavalry was invincible. If both armies were to fight head-on in a flat area, no other kingdom would be a match for it.

Even the Khergit Khanate and Sarrand Sultanate, the two cavalry countries, did not dare to face them head-on.

Hence, the cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia could charge forward without fear.

However, the Order of Lion was different.

In the Pendor Continent, the Kingdom of Sarleon was not the strongest.

Although it had inherited most of the inheritance of the Pendor Empire, this kingdom was still a rising kingdom. There were also the Kingdom of Ravenstern, the Fierdsvain, the D’Shar Principalities, and the Jatu tribe around it, there was also the Bacchus Empire, which had almost annexed the entire Pendor Continent and came from the other continents in the outer seas!

Although the Kingdom of Sarleon had a strong military force and also used the heavy cavalry as the core of their offense, when facing other strong enemies, these cavalries had to rely heavily on the cooperation of the heavy footman and the archers in order to display their greatest effectiveness.

This also resulted in the heavy cavalry of the Kingdom of Sarleon not actually launching a sudden assault to tear apart the enemy’s formation.

Instead, it was a mobile heavy tank that charged into the enemy’s formation and slaughtered wantonly.

It had the tactical effect of a close combat trap!

This difference was similar to the difference between Kant’s two top archers, like the Vaegoir marksman who was good at shooting in groups and killing the enemy with a rain of arrows, and the Ravenstern Ranger who shot rapidly and killed the enemy with a continuous wave of arrows, it was a fundamental difference.

If the cavalry of the Kingdom of Sarleon charged into the enemy’s army as recklessly as the cavalry of the Kingdom of Swadia, it was probably not because the enemy’s army had collapsed, it was because their ace cavalry had suffered inevitable losses in the charge.

The archers on the Continent of Pendor were much stronger than those on the Continent of Caradia.

For example, the Ravensterm Rangers.

On the continent of Caradia, they were comparable to the strongest Vaegir Marksman.

However, on the Continent of Pendor, they were only the most cost-effective civilian archers. They were the best archers who defended the Misty Mountains and did not have much armor. They were equivalent to the uncivilized barbarians.

If the troop class was evaluated in terms of long-range troops, the advantage of the Ravenstern Rangers was they could be mass recruited.

In terms of long-range firepower.

Whether it was the Silvermist Ranger, Barclay Sapper, Ebony Gauntlet, D’Shar Djaha Archer, or the Crossbow of Order, they were all extremely terrifying existences. When their numbers reached a certain point, they could easily destroy the enemy army in front of them.

Not to mention the invincible long-range archers Noldor Elves.

There was a saying that went like this.

The Noldor Ranger’s firepower could only last for five minutes, but he could shatter your steel shield from half the map in five seconds!

The problem of troop class had always been the unique highlight of each MOD, and it was even more difficult to understand.

The current Kant was unable to figure it out.

“However, I don’t need to think too much about it.”

Rubbing the space between his eyebrows, Kant’s expression was calm.

The Swadian Royal Knights were responsible for charging and destroying the enemy.

The Lion Knights were responsible for charging into the enemy’s formation and killing at will, speeding up the process of the enemy’s collapse.

Such a combination was extremely perfect!

“Build.”

Kant’s eyes flickered as he thought about the communication system.

10,000 reputation points and 100,000 denars immediately disappeared. However, in the eastern military area of “Drondheim” Castle, on an empty space close to the military camp and the training ground, brand new buildings began to appear. They had the distinct characteristics of the Kingdom of Sarleon.

At the same time, at the top of the buildings, a golden lion with a red bottom was fluttering in the wind.

The building that could upgrade a knight to a Lion Knight was completed!
