《Restarting life as a peasant》Chapter 25

She looked at the spearheads with disinterested eyes and said “good”. Then turned her guards, all of them were looking at the weapons with dropped jaws. She turned to me and said “Are those that good?” I said “Yes, they are that good.” She brings out a pouch of money. And give me “ All 200 of the golds here.” I started to count them in front of her. She was clearly annoyed. Me not falling to her charm and not trusting her started to get to her “How can you think, I a noble woman try to fool a peasant like you” I said “Money has no bloodlines, just pure value.” What that meant I didn’t know either. I just liked annoying her, because of her fussy behavior. She said “We will need further weapons acquirements later. For now that is enough, we are leaving.” I said “Did Bruce tell you about the Avengers of Altus?” She turned me “I will not get involved whatever the crazy cult they are” I said “If you have organized with them you can much more easily defeat the Baron” She stopped, thinking for a second and said “No, I don’t want to” I didn’t want to annoy her that much. I still needed her help for dividing Baron’s troops. I said “sorry my lady, I didn’t mean to offend you. Can I at least ask you some questions?” She stopped, looked at me and said “Ok, ask away quickly” I said “How powerful barons troops are?” She looked around and said “I believe he has around 50 city guards and around 100 other soldiers dispersed in villages. He has a total of 12 knights. I said “Isn’t that number small?” Bruce spoke “The greatest possession of his is Baldenburg city, other than that he only has 30 villages. With around 400 people on average. I made the math in my mind. He had a 10.000 population city and 12.000 people in villages. Of course Baldenburg being the only city around this part actually over a hundred villages do business there. Kings liked making their nobles reliant on other parts of the country. That made lords much less likely to cause any rebellion. When compared to a total of 22.000 people, the number of 150 soldiers didn’t seem that little. I didn’t think Alfred could levy more soldiers from his villages due to them being malnourished serfs or his city due to the city being his main money source and he needing people in there to do crafting and trading necessary for his coffers. But he definitely could hire mercenaries. I said to them “The Avengers planning making their move in the north in three months’ time. Let's attack simultaneously. Gloria thinks a little “In three months’ time my troops will be ready in the west of the land. I had one more question “Where did you guys find the soldiers? 200 spearheads means 200 spearmen is it not?” Bruce looked at Gloria and she said “I said the baron on the west I would marry him if he found me 200 volunteers and I won the war. He already forced 200 of his peasants to fight on my side, but he was too afraid to use his own troops because of fear of the king's wrath. I said ‘what an idiot’ inside. She was playing him. And he was going to lose many of his peasants over that stupid dream. Man should know their place. I guessed If Alfred didn’t find any good mercenary troops soon he would be going to pay a hell of a price.
