Continental Warriors Yoo Ma

"Lord Count, Miss An Wen is waiting for you in the study." Back in his suite, the maid reported to him.

"It's rare. I thought the moon elf had become a house girl."

Youfu Ma walked to the front of the study, and vaguely heard a shy and angry female voice inside: "It's too shameless! Two, two men and one woman... Are humans beings that are in heat at any time?"

Uh, really.

Youfu Ma coughed deliberately and made some noise.

There were rapid footsteps inside.

Then he pushed open the door and walked in, and saw that An Wen was sitting on the sofa pretending to be calm with her slender, round legs up.

Youfu Ma deliberately ignored the girl's twinkling eyes and rosy face, and asked, "Miss Anwen, do you have anything to do with me?"

"I heard that you found some slates from the ancient tomb. We Sherwood Elves and the Kingdom of the Black Tomb come from the same world, maybe we can help you interpret this information." An Wen said, "After all, as your followers, I should also do my duty to help you."

In fact, after being alone for a few days, she finally couldn't stand the loneliness, put down the arrogance and restraint of the elf temporarily, and wanted to find something to do.

The young master of the Sherwood elves can't be a waste of food all day long.

"That's great." Yofu Ma pointed to the slate on the desk, "Did you decipher any useful information from it?"

"Only one point." An Wen shook her head, "The hieroglyphs used in the Kingdom of the Black Tomb have been lost in the Andurui world. The only ancient script I have ever learned is a foreign language, which is a cuneiform script..."

"Is that so?" Ma Youfu took out the dragon book and pointed to the words on the cover.

"Yes." An Wen nodded.When she saw the words on the cover clearly, her expression changed, "Don't open it easily, this is the Book of Otto!"

The information contained in the Book of Otto is not the words on the pages, but the specially treated dragon paper on which various memory fragments are stored.

If the reader's soul wavelength matches the memory fragment, then just staring at the page and doing nothing will get the information recorded in the book.

If the wavelengths don't match, repulsion happens -- that's what happened to Count Armagnac.

The short-term rejection phenomenon is not a big problem, but if you force the reading, it will last for a long time, and it is likely to cause permanent soul damage.

This special method of information dissemination was invented by a legendary mage Otto, so this kind of book is called the Book of Otto.

"There is such an easy and convenient way to learn knowledge, is this the legendary quantum reading?" Ma Youfu rubbed the rough and cool cover of the book thoughtfully.

"If the soul wavelengths match, do you feel vague information entering your mind when you look at the pages?"

"Can you read this book?" An Wen looked at Youfu Ma in surprise, "Good luck. However, although this method of knowledge dissemination is convenient and fast, it requires a lot of mana for the reader. With your current strength of ordinary rank, read I don't know how long it will take to finish this book."

The two chatted for a while, and seeing that there was nothing to do, the elf girl got up and said goodbye: "Good night, sir..." She reluctantly said the last two words and left the study.

"I wish you a good dream, An Wen."

After sending the elf girl away, Youfu Ma sat down in front of the desk.He found that his manuscript had traces of flipping.Especially the prom chapter of "Young Alfred Bentley", the multiplayer scene of Alfred's girlfriend and two classmates, was read many times.

"What a dishonest girl." Youfu Ma smiled slightly, and in his mind, the elf girl's upturned shape wrapped in tight leather pants flashed by.

Chapter 65 To Reims

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Yofu Ma opened the book of Otto.

That familiar feeling returns when the eye touches the page.

He felt the fragments of information come together in a trickle, into his mind, and then pieced together into an increasingly clear picture.

It wasn't until the mana was exhausted and the fatigue flooded in that Yoo Ma put down the book.

He had to go to rest.

However, with the help of the Divine Emblem of the Goddess of Life, after only four hours, Yoo Ma returned to a state full of magic power.

He immediately got up from the bed and continued "quantum reading".

After three days of sleeplessness and sleeplessness, after reading ten pages of the Book of Otto, the first puzzle piece in Yofu Ma's mind finally became complete.

The knowledge he has acquired is a spellcasting system called "Prime Rune".

The Rune Rune, which was brought to the earth by the dwarves and widely used by the Celts and the Nordic region, can be used to preserve and shape magic power and reduce the difficulty of casting spells. Essentially, it is a tool to assist spellcasting. .

But the "prime rune" is different from the well-known rune.

Even non-spell casters can make this rune as long as they gather the raw materials, and by activating the rune, the corresponding spell effects can be released.

It can be said that the original rune itself is a spell, not a tool to assist spellcasting.

According to the theory in "Everything is Magic" written by Pythagoras, matter and magic can be transformed into each other under certain conditions.The medium of transformation can be actions, words, patterns, sounds, or even abstract concepts such as beauty, ugliness, goodness, and evil.

The archmage named Otto, apparently saw the same thing as the Pythagorean hero, and developed the spellcasting system of "Pure Rune".

"Using the original runes, ordinary people can also use spells. Doesn't it mean that magic, a skill that only a few elites can master, can be popularized to the public, and the earth in the late Middle Ages will soon enter the era of great magic?"

Yofu Ma shook his head and quickly rejected his whims.

Although non-spellcasters can also use primitive runes, the threshold of this spellcasting system is not low at all.

The production of primitive runes requires precious metals such as gold and silver, precious natural minerals - gemstones, and even some otherworldly materials that are not native to the earth and can only be brought by the intersection of the celestial sphere.

Of course, for a person with the ability to make money like Youfu Ma, the original rune is an option to improve his strength.

The interest-free loan of Queen Yolande, the wealth seized from the woolen soldiers, the ransom of the Garter knights, and the money now squeezed from the bones, all add up, and he now has [-] ducats. I'm home.

When the first dividend from the maltose business is received, his wealth will be further increased.

Making money is not easy, and how to spend money efficiently is also a knowledge.

Youfu Ma did not have the vulgar dream of lying on the golden mountain and sleeping, he needed to convert these gold coins into visible strength as soon as possible.

The top priority is naturally to improve his own combat effectiveness.

After the actual combat test, the arquebus is obviously not suitable for small-scale battles between extraordinary forces.Perhaps in the future large-scale infantry regiments equipped with muskets will be the greatest threat to the knights, but now he despises these cumbersome and difficult-to-use firearms.

However, Yoof Ma's special grenade proved his usefulness on the battlefield.

The enchanted lead bullets filled inside ensure the lethality of the grenade, and the weight and size are also easy to carry and throw.What needs to be improved the most is the trigger method.Can't always use "Saloman's Touch" to detonate grenades?If you need to reserve magic scrolls at any time, wouldn't it add trouble.

However, after learning the original rune, this can be quickly improved, that is, the cost of each grenade will increase.

Money can no longer restrain Ma's imagination.He even had a bold idea - to combine the advantages of firearms and grenades to make epoch-making weapons.

That's a grenade!

To put this idea into practice, it is certainly not possible in Dijon.

Youf Ma is going to Reims.

Long before this mission to Burgundy, he had leased a piece of land from the Archbishop of Reims to house the refugees he hosted.

Juvenil has been helping Mayoufu with this matter, and now the number of refugees who have taken refuge with the Count of Rouen has exceeded [-].

Because of the key information provided, he helped the Church of the Seven Saints to clean up the cultists lurking in the palace. In return, Archbishop of Reims promoted Juvenier to Bishop of Risor.

Risor was a parish belonging to the Earl of Rouen, in other words, Juvenil was now an official subordinate of Mayouf.

The idealistic bishop, who helped Mayouf continue to recruit refugees displaced by the war, kept things big and small in good order.

Of course, no matter how powerful Juvenier is, he still doesn't know anything about military affairs.Four hundred sturdy men now selected from the refugee camps form two companies and are managed by two hired knights as officers.

One of the two knights was a Castilian named Torres de Cordoba.He was the knight whom Mayouf sent back to Chinon to ask for help when he was fighting the Wool Soldiers.

After the great victory, the other knights who participated in the war got a lot of booty, made a windfall, and returned home to enjoy their blessings. Only the unlucky Torres stayed in Chinon.

So he gritted his teeth and sold himself to - Abu, changed it to "swear allegiance to the Count of Rouen" and stayed in France.

The other knight, Tspiciko, was a Polish.He came to France for a very simple purpose. He wanted to earn more money by fighting the war, and then go home to buy a family property.

"I will have twenty strong sons, and when they grow up, they will be able to take up arms and pluck the peacock feathers from the helmets of Teutonic knights!"

These are the words Tspiciko talks about every day.

In the Battle of Grunwald 20 years ago, Poland and Lithuania jointly beat up the Teutonic Knights, and this former Eastern European power has never recovered.

However, the Poles still hate these German demons who have done bad things, and they are always thinking about completely defeating them.

It wasn't until the 20-year war that occurred more than 13 years later in history that the Teutonic Knights became a Polish vassal, and the grievances between the two sides would dissipate.

Of course, the grievances and grievances in the Baltic Sea have nothing to do with Ma Youfu.Perhaps after the Knights were defeated, he could still recruit a group of German knights of good quality.

Torres and Tspiciko are not genius generals who have left their name in history, and in terms of combat effectiveness, they are just warriors who have just reached the mid-tier rank.However, as a grassroots military noble who has received knight education since childhood, his abilities can still be trusted.

Anyway, in a short period of time, Yoof Ma won't have too high expectations for his infantry. It is enough to be able to defend the position and support the main battle.

The real elites have to rely on mercenaries.

Chapter 66 Champagne Fair

Although the British have proved through several epic victories that well-trained infantry can defeat the mighty knight, in this day and age, it is not easy and often laborious to assemble an elite infantry force with peasants and bourgeoisie Not flattering.Better to rely on mercenaries.This is also the choice of most nobles.

As for the cavalry troops, it was even more extravagant for Youfu Ma, who had no territory and no allegiance to a group of full-time soldiers.

Still have to rely on mercenaries.

Only artillery units can quickly form and form a powerful combat force by relying on strong financial resources and the mathematical knowledge of traversers.

This is also the place where Ma Youfu invested the most in military construction.

After developing granular gunpowder, Jean Brooke went to Italy with a few boxes of gold coins.He ordered thirty high-quality artillery pieces in Milan, and by the way recruited some craftsmen.

In addition, Jean Bro was fortunate to meet an Albanian nobleman, and through his connections, he recruited about sixty Balkan hussars.

After the artillery was built, Jean Brooke would divide his troops into two groups, one by boat, to transport the artillery to France.Another team crossed the Alps and, with Volgar's connections, planned to recruit another [-] shield dwarf mercenaries in Switzerland.

In this way, the whole army is put up.

After Faber made peace, with the prestige of Joan of Arc, he pulled the generals of the main battle faction to strike Paris first.After the victory, Charles VII, who had already returned to the old capital, fulfilled his long-cherished wish, and greatly increased his confidence, could be persuaded to invest more military expenditures.At that time, it will be able to attack the Normandy area that the British have been operating for many years and have been regarded as their homeland.

Philip III had already set out first.

The Duke will return to Ghent, and after a rest there, he will head to Chalon with his knights in bright armour.

Charles VII, as early as the two sides finalized the agreement and terms, began to prepare for the move.

However, the two monarchs will definitely be intrigued over trivial matters such as "who gets to Chalons first".Alas, it's all the so-called honor of the nobles, or in other words, the face, which has caused right and wrong.

Fortunately, the official start date of the meeting is set for December [-]th, which is also one of the seven saints, the day of the appearance of Mirna, the goddess of darkness, secrets, and luck, and there is still enough time.

Youf Ma stayed in Dijon for another four days, until all the valuables in the tomb had been removed and loaded into the carriage.

Counting the time, if we set off now, we should be able to arrive at Lance at about the same time as Jean Bro and the others.

However, with so many spoils, there is definitely no way to turn them into cash in Dijon in a short time, so Ma Youfu decided to pull them all to the champagne market to sell.

The so-called champagne market is an international trade market established by the counts of the duchy of Champagne since the 12th century.
