Chapter 441
As for the prisoners of war who were captured by victory in the battle a few days ago, Zhang Qiang was very rude and collected them into his own account.

And in the past few days of continuous persuasion, more than half of the captives were recruited, and more than 500 Vikia soldiers were recruited by paying a lot of prestige.

This surrender increased the number of his cavalry by more than 100 people. It is no longer just Vikia cuirassiers, but has Vikia heavy cavalry, cavalry, riders, and three levels of cavalry.

The number of Vikia cavalry has increased to more than 260, and with the addition of his own cavalry, there are a total of more than 280 cavalry.

Vikia infantry, increased to 500 people, the original infantry, plus infantry recruited by captives, the same infantry also takes into account all levels, Vikia guards, Vikia heavy infantry, Vikia infantry, Vikia light infantry, Vikia Recruits, Vikir militia.

There are 390 Vikia archers. Archers are Zhang Qiang's biggest loss. After all, archers are naturally weak in defense. When the battle is in a melee, archers are the soldiers most likely to be killed.

Three or four thousand enemies, even when Zhang Qiang joined the battlefield, there were only more than 800 enemies left, but after the battle was won, Zhang Qiang's remaining 100 cuirassiers were still very capable in capturing prisoners. Needless to say, Zhang Qiang also has a dozen or so bounty hunters led by Lecky Knights who have survived previous battles. They are dedicated to capturing captives. Of course, they can no longer be called bounty hunters. Become a slave hunter, more professional.

As for the rescued Earl Siwa and their Swadia Kingdom soldiers who were captured by the enemy, Zhang Qiang not only left more than 30 people to strengthen his general guard, but also returned all of them to the three lords. The relationship between the lord and him instantly improved.

Earl Siwa and him accepted from the beginning, broke through to friendship, and the relationship value reached 15.

The relationship between Earl Kleiss and him has been improved from acceptance to friendship, and the relationship value has reached 20.

And the Earl of Sweden, who had a lot of intersections with him, has improved from the original friendly relationship to close relationship, and the relationship value has reached 30.

Regardless of whether they are good lords or scum lords, the relationship between these three people and Zhang Qiang has improved, and it is not bad.

For the Earl of Sweden who was close to him, when he offered to buy some captives with gold dinars to strengthen his troops, Zhang Qiang agreed without hesitation. Anyway, he didn’t want to detain those captives for a long time. The small castle on the edge far away from the inhabited area, at present, as long as the military presence of the Sultanate of Sarande in this area is not eliminated, he does not have the ability and time to take these captives away.

Due to the use of a lot of prestige, his troops can no longer increase when they reach 200. This not only increases his logistics pressure, but also shortens the duration of his troops' operations. The larger the number, the more important the command The test of ability is more severe. In the first three to five days, marching with so many troops, their morale may remain extremely high, when there are some things on the march.

For example, the lack or reduction of food will make soldiers worry about being hungry and morale will drop.

When morale drops, soldiers will complain. If every soldier’s appeal is not handled well, morale will continue to drop. Soldiers will procrastinate when marching, and the soldiers in front will walk ten miles away. It will be ten miles away, and the team will be stretched, so it will be difficult to take care of it. But when night comes, some soldiers who are unwilling to fight and have resentment will flee in the dark, which is another blow to morale.

It's a vicious cycle of morale.

Therefore, he sold the surplus captives to the Earl of Sweden and provided him with enough food and supplies, so that the Earl of Sweden's army strength was restored to more than 300 people, reaching a quarter of the basic force that an earl could lead.

The relationship between the two people improved again and became a close friend relationship, and the relationship value reached 35.

After Earl Cress found out, he asked Zhang Qiang for more than 100 rescued soldiers and bought more than 100 captives. His sick troops also increased to more than 300, and the relationship between the two became friends, with a relationship value of 25.

After thinking about it, Earl Siwa timidly made the same request to Zhang Qiang. Zhang Qiang thought for a long time, and finally agreed to him the next day. He handed over the remaining 200 rescued soldiers to him, and then gave the remaining More than 200 captives were sold to him, and his force reached more than 500 at once, surpassing the other two. Zhang Qiang saw Earl Siwa proudly showing off to the other two.

Zhang Qiang just snickered behind his back.

Maybe his actions will cause the other two people to have opinions on him, but if there are any opinions, the relationship level between him and the two of them will not change until they are clearly stated, maybe it will be reduced by one or two points, from 25 to 24 , from 35 to 34, what's the point? Zhang Qiang cares about the relationship level, not one or two values, which has little effect on his relationship with the two people.

But this approach can improve the relationship between Earl Siwa and him. This is what he wants. There is only one reason why he deliberately handed over the remaining soldiers who were rescued and the captured soldiers of the enemy to Earl Siwa. The guy is currently the lord of Fort Lundia. After Earl Reyes went to Fort Garmitch to serve as the lord there, this guy became the lord of Fort Lundia.

And his territory is a subsidiary territory of Fort Lundia. Within the scope of this guy's territory, it is also beneficial for him to have a good relationship with him.

Perhaps this advantage will soon be reflected.

Two days later, Zhang Qiang got a reminder from the game ring. After showing off with the other two earls, Earl Xiwa praised Zhang Qiang's behavior very much. The relationship between the two became close, and the relationship value reached 29.

Although it is not the critical value that is about to break through the relationship level, it is not far away. At 31, the two are close friends.

But what puzzles a few people is about how to go next.

These people can't stay in Le Lago Castle and sit and eat, can they?

As for where to go and how to fight, the four of them had to discuss and come up with a solution when they couldn't wait for Rod Laboye.

The two earls and the earl of Siwa disagreed, and no one could convince the other, so Zhang Qiang had to make a choice.

All three looked at Zhang Qiang.

Zhang Qiang thought for a long time before saying: "I support Earl Siwa to continue to lead us. As our marshal, his opinion is my opinion."

Zhang Qiang saw Earl Siwa smiling at him, and at the same time heard the prompt from the game ring, the relationship between him and the two earls dropped again, by two points at once. Although it hadn't fallen below the level yet, Zhang Qiang was also taken aback. Looking at the two people, the eyes of the two people looking at him also have a lot of meaning.

Earl Siwa raised his head and laughed loudly, "Viscount Zhang Qiang, you like your choice very much, don't worry, I will not let you down, I will lead everyone to win one victory after another."

Zhang Qiang looked at him and said with a smile: "Then, Lord Earl Siwa, how should we go?"

Earl Siwa stood up, walked around a few times, raised his head and said, "Since we can't wait for that bastard Rod Laboye, but as mercenaries, we should abide by our agreement with Rod Laboye and continue to help He cleans up the enemy in this area until the enemy's forces are eliminated, or he takes the initiative to seek peace, so I decided, next, we will attack the enemy's territory,"

He waved, "Threzke Castle,".
