Chapter 197 The war at the border
The next few days were quite boring for Li Si.
But for the caravan, this should be the normal state every day. How can a normal caravan encounter danger every day?
Li Si also became familiar with the operations and precautions of his previous adventure while following the White Wolf Mercenary Group in the past few days.
Generally speaking, the difference from the game is not very big, and it is probably not much different from the various operations in the game. On the contrary, because there are no reality of reading bars and abnormal states in the game, Li Si feels a little simpler and more relaxed.
The same goes for Fink. After being easily crushed and defeated by Lis that day, he shut himself up all night and returned to his usual state early the next morning.
In other words, his attitude towards Li Si became more enthusiastic.
I have been pestering Li Si these days, and I really want to know how Li Si, who is the same age as him, became so powerful.
Li Si thought for a while, and after obtaining Magath's consent, started special training for Fink during the break.
bang~
Li Si made a sudden force, and the long sword was directly on the spear in Fink's hand. Fink clenched the trembling spear with both hands, and couldn't help but jump back a few steps before the impact was eliminated.
“You are so strong, Moriarty.”
Fink rubbed his wrist and said to Li Si.
“You have a very strong body. How do you exercise?”
Li Si made a handsome show of swordplay and put the long sword back into the scabbard.
“It's nothing special. It's just a body-building technique practiced with everyone in the mercenary group. Do you want to see it?”
Fink took out a pamphlet from somewhere and handed it to Li Si.
Li Si took it and took a look. The name of this booklet was "White Wolf Body Training Technique". It seemed that it should be the exclusive body training technique of the White Wolf Mercenary Group.
After briefly flipping through it, Lis returned the pamphlet to Fink.
It has been confirmed that it is from the street.
For players who have just entered the game, this is still a relatively precious physical training technique. It can improve physical fitness and provide certain attribute values, but for Li Si, it is just like that.
Furthermore, Li Si looked at it and found that there was nothing special about it.
Other members of the White Wolf Mercenary Group do not have such extraordinary physical fitness as Finke, so Finke's specialness should be due to him.
In this case, it is not a matter of short time.
Li Si stretched out and almost wanted to go back to the carriage and continue lying down.
It's not that Li Si is lazy, it's just that after verifying his idea, he should continue to seize the time to study arcana.
It is already noon, and the October sunshine is still a bit hot.
Other mercenaries came to replace Li Si and others, and the caravan behind them also took a short rest on the roadside.
The guys in the caravan were busy giving water and food to the animals in the caravan, and others also took the time to sit aside and rest for a while.
As the caravan gradually moved away from the Bright City, the number of people began to dwindle, and the guards and mercenaries accompanying the caravan gradually began to increase their vigilance.
Li Si followed Magath to the small carriage belonging to the White Wolf Mercenary Group. This is Magath's personal property and is equipped with the luggage and sundries of the mercenary group. Normally, just arrange a mercenary to guard it. Most people Still have to rely on foot strength.
After all, the labor of animals is still relatively precious, and when the caravan is moving forward, there is no car available for people to rest.
Magath also took out some dry food and water from the car, and everyone ate them hastily to replenish their strength. There was still half a day of travel in the afternoon! Li Si thought for a while and took out some cakes from the storage ring to share with everyone.
The mercenaries of the White Wolf Mercenary Group looked a little strange, but they still accepted the pastry, which was obviously too delicate.
As for Fink, he thanked Lisi curtly and started gobbling it up.
In the afternoon, Li Si said goodbye to Fink and others, claiming that he had other work arranged for him and could no longer follow them.
Fink felt a little regretful, but still thanked Li Si for his teachings these days.
Magath and others also had regretful looks on their faces, and they didn't know who it was for.
After Li Si returned to the carriage, he sat down and shook his head. Was it really too early to meet Fink?
There is not much gained these days.
However, Li Si's mentality is very good. Nothing can go as he wants. This can be regarded as a foreshadowing for the future.
After a while, the caravan began to move slowly towards the north again. As the vehicle swayed slightly, Li Si closed his eyes again and immersed himself in the world of arcane magic.
While Li Si's caravan was moving forward silently, the rest of the Fanor continent was not peaceful.
The border between the Kingdom of Fes and the Kingdom of Berdych, the Dukedom of Mackay.
This is one of the most important transportation thoroughfares between the Kingdom of Fes and the Kingdom of Berdych. Every year, many merchants pass through here, bringing special products from other parts of the mainland to the Kingdom of Berdych, and also bringing the Kingdom of Berdych to the seaside. Bring special products back to the Kingdom of Fes.
As the Kingdom of Fes has continued to grow in recent years, its strong military strength has ensured the safety of caravans traveling to and from the Kingdom of Fes. This has also made the commercial trade of the Kingdom of Fes, which relies on the Gedo River, increasingly prosperous.
More and more caravans choose to come to the Kingdom of Fes, bringing goods from their hometown here and purchasing specialties from other regions.
This spontaneous behavior of merchants also caused the total amount of goods sold from the Kingdom of Fes to the Kingdom of Berdych to gradually increase, far exceeding the value of the goods sold by the Kingdom of Berdych to the Kingdom of Fes.
From the perspective of the kings and nobles of the Berdych Kingdom, this is tantamount to exploiting their wealth and plundering their resources. How can they endure this with their short-sightedness?
They never thought that although they were a country on the eastern coast of Fanor and had an excellent seaport that the Kingdom of Fes coveted, they never considered better development of trade. Instead, they were only satisfied with charging high taxes from their citizens to satisfy their needs. Their luxurious life.
What's even more funny is that they were obviously aware that the Kingdom of Fes was making their wealth through trade, but they did not take any meaningful measures to resist.
Instead, they chose to increase customs clearance taxes at the border.
When the Kingdom of Fes also chose reciprocal sanctions and increased tariffs, they couldn't stand it.
Without the goods shipped from the Kingdom of Fes, their luxurious life would be greatly affected.
It can only be said that the entire ruling class of the Berdych Kingdom is almost completely rotten.
Even so, they knew that having a powerful Fes Kingdom as their neighbor was a threat to them.
So they chose to accumulate a considerable number of troops in the Dukedom of MacKay at the border with the Kingdom of Fes.
After all, the Berdych Kingdom faces the sea to the east and poses no threat.
After King Berdych made such arrangements, he thought he had nothing to worry about and continued to have fun in the royal capital.
Beru City, the most important city in the Dukedom of Mackay, serves as the trade and military core on the western border of the Berdych Kingdom. Now it is no longer as prosperous and lively as it used to be.
A flag with a **** sword fluttered above the city head of Beru City.
