Chapter 1461 1448. Bradley Manor
The north wind from the Gandar Er Mountains blows across the endless meadow, taking away the almost saturated moisture in the soil.
The West Route Army walked northward for nearly two days.
Suldak rode in the middle of the team.
Andrew pointed to a raised hill in the distance, and introduced to Suldak:
"Look over there, there is a Bradley Manor. The last time I came here, I bought cattle with the Earl Bradley in the manor."
Suldak narrowed his eyes, trying to find a little shadow of the manor from the green sea, but unfortunately he couldn't find the shadow of Ding Erdian.
After two days of marching, the West Route Army entered the depths of the big meadow, and there were no traces of evil spirits here.
Suldak looked into the distance and asked Andrew:
"When you came to buy cattle last time, did you see Gu Bo coming to the horse?"
Andrew thought about it seriously, and immediately said with certainty:
"There should be a large horse farm behind the manor, and there are indeed many ancient horses in it."
Suldak didn't speak.
He rode forward on the horse, lowered his head and pondered whether to buy a horse or not.
What allowed Suldak to make a smooth decision was that Andrew moved out the two boxes of black magic crystals obtained from the raid on the six evil ghost armies by the Bruin River, and asked Suldak to keep them by himself. The two big boxes were heavy The unidentified black magic crystal has not been polished yet, and it still looks like a dark magic core.
"Are you interested in going to Bradley Manor with me?" Suldak asked Andrew.
In any case, these dark magic cores rekindled Suldak's desire to purchase.
"Now?" Andrew asked.
Suldak nodded.
Andrew became energetic when he heard it, and immediately said:
"OK!"
Then he asked Suldak:
"Boss, do you want to buy a batch of war horses again? Aren't we going to transform those constructed knights into advanced ant cavalry?"
Suldak held the reins of the horse with one hand, and replied:
"It's better to buy another batch of war horses. I don't want these constructed knights to become advanced ant cavalry."
This time he went to Bradley Manor, bringing Andrew and Gullitum with him.
Wolf knight Tiger continued to lead the army to continue northward.
Although Suldak has been thinking about using giant soldier ants as the new mounts of the knights, it also needs to consider some ideas of the knights. I believe that many knights are more willing to ride horses, and The production progress of the Aphrodite contract scroll is also very limited.
On this battlefield in the Warsaw plane, the giant soldier ants will continue to serve as death squads and human shields.
So Suldak decided to buy another batch of high-quality Gubolai horses and transform them into magic-weave warhorses.
In addition, Suldak also has some new ideas about those giant soldier ants. In front of the ghost warriors, the hard armor of giant ghost-striped soldier ants is still not thick, so next Suldak may give these giant The vital parts of soldier ants are armored.
Of course, it's just a thought at the moment.
There is no blacksmith shop in Moyunling...
…
The Bradley Estate is one of the few estates on the Great Meadow.
This manor is of course also very large. The whole manor is almost surrounded by three mounds and a large lake, and there are two very thin rivers flowing through the manor.
The hundreds of square kilometers of grassland nearby are also owned by Earl Bradley.
As for the boundary markers, they may be covered by lush green grass.
Anyway, Suldak failed to find the so-called boundary markers along the way.
However, when Suldak crossed the thin river less than two meters wide, he saw a very old sign erected beside the river, which read: 'Bradley River'.
When you come outside the gate of the manor, you can see some buildings inside the manor through the gap of the big iron gate of the manor. The houses inside are almost all white or light yellow pebbles and stone mortar. This kind of house looks very solid. , but it is difficult to cover high.
There was a team of guards standing in front of the gate. The captain of the guard saw the noble lord badge on Suldak's chest, and immediately ran to Suldak to salute, and then asked: "My lord, what can I do for you?" Served?"
It was the first time that Suldak saw the guards wearing such good armor, and the long sword on his waist matched the epee.
I thought to myself: The reason why this manor can gain a foothold on this big meadow is that the guards in this manor must be very good, at least not afraid of the sudden attack of a small group of evil spirits.
The guards heard the arrival of Earl Suldak, commander of the West Route Army, and immediately sent someone to the manor to report to the manor owner.
The owner of the manor, Earl Josie Bradley, was also very enthusiastic about the visit of Commander Suldak, and came to the gate to greet him in person.
The Earl Bradley has a bookish face, a very fair complexion, a neatly trimmed beard, and a horse suit of light leather armor. He looks handsome from a distance.
This kind of fine dressing makes it difficult to see his actual age.
Earl Bradley was very enthusiastic. He planned to show Suldak the unique buildings in his manor, but Suldak refused on business grounds.
The main thing is that Suerdak will rush back to the West Route Army soon, so he is not going to delay here.
When the two parties sat in the living room, Suerdak immediately stated the purpose of this visit:
"Earl Bradley, I'm here this time to buy some ancient horses from you."
"Gobo coming?" said Earl Bradley.
Suldak leaned on the sofa in the living room, holding a cup of milk tea with a strong milk flavor in his hand, and said, "If there are scaled horses... of course it would be the best."
"There are no scaled horses here, so it's not easy to bring them in from the outside at this time. Now the portals in Epsom City are very congested, and it's very difficult to get in if it's not military supplies..." Earl Bradley sat Said opposite Suldak.
He sits very straight.
Suldak didn't dwell on this issue, and immediately said: "Then buy some of the best ancient Bolai horses."
"How many?"
"1,200 horses." Suldak said a number again straightforwardly.
The extra two hundred horses are spare army horses.
"Okay." Earl Bradley's eyes became more confident when he heard the amount, and he quickly said, "We can go to the racecourse first, those Gubolai horses are in the back of the racecourse, I think it's ok, You can trade on the spot.”
"good!"
After saying that, Suldak put down his teacup and stood up.
This cup of salty milk tea is a bit uncomfortable for him.
Led by Earl Bradley, Suldak and his party rode to the horse farm behind the manor.
The grass quality of this meadow is much better visually than other places. Large pieces of alfalfa are crowded together, like a green blanket.
Earl Bradley's entourage rode to a herdsman over there, whispered something in his ear, and then the herdsman immediately rode to find other herdsmen, and after a while these herdsmen gathered a group of ancient Bo Laima rushed over.
Seeing this group of Gubolai horses running wildly on the grass, Suldak carefully observed their body muscle lines. It seems that these Gubolai horses are usually trained according to the conditions of military horses, and their overall quality is very good. very nice.
Andrew stepped forward to select a few horses and looked at their teeth, and sure enough they were all young Gubolai horses.
After walking back, Andrew nodded secretly to Suldak.
Seeing that there was no doubt on Andrew's side, Suldak approved the batch of ancient Bolai horses.
This transaction can be regarded as a successful conclusion.
Since the last time Earl Bradley asked the cattle to be sent directly to the forest camp, this time the earl arranged for the herdsmen to send 1,200 horses to the forest camp.
Before leaving the manor, Suldak paid 3,500 magic spar.
This is just the price of buying 1,200 ancient Bolai horses...
…
Just as Suldak left the manor with Andrew and Gulitum.
Three magic caravans came from the other side of the manor.
The three magic caravans were parked at the entrance of the manor. A lady in noble attire came out of the middle carriage, stood at the entrance of the carriage, looked at the backs of Suldak and the others, and asked Earl Bradley at the entrance. road:
"Where are they guests? Brother."
Earl Bradley said: "Suldak, Commander of the West Road Reinforcements of the Bena Legion, is here to buy horses."
After he finished speaking, he stopped riding the horse, handed over the reins to his attendants, and got into the lady's carriage.
The noble lady also entered the carriage, and the carriage continued to drive towards the manor.
When the lady heard Suldak's name, she seemed to think of something the next moment, and immediately screamed: "My God, that commander actually bought a horse from you?"
Earl Bradley said disapprovingly:
"What's the matter, I sold their 30,000 cows a while ago!"
The lady blinked her blue eyes, stared at Earl Bradley and asked, "Brother, do you know what happened recently?"
Earl Bradley spread his hands, and said helplessly, "I have very little information here. How can there be any information in Handanal City!"
The noble lady covered her mouth with a hand, and quickly said the news she heard:
"Then you must not know that just ten days ago, the lord of Suldak led some constructed knights to stop an army of evil spirits running in from the Naroda Canyon in the middle of the Buruin River. Nearly 10,000 evil spirits were buried on this battlefield, and nearly 5,000 scaled horses died there. Now many Constructed Knights of the Eastern Route Army went to Handanal City to buy horses. The market over there The market has risen by at least 30% in the past few days."
Earl Bradley was stunned, and then said with some emotion: "Oh, Handanal County hasn't experienced a victory of this scale for a long time."
The lady went on to say: "Now Kornberg County is also reporting frequent successes, but it is not so dazzling when it comes to the specific number of evil spirits killed in battle."
Seeing that Earl Bradley still had no expression on his face, he said again:
"I think this deal can be renegotiated. Without these ancient horses, their cavalry will become infantry..."
