Bogdan, or Jeremin Irwin, Bogdan being his pseudonym in Horn Bay, was a senior staff officer in the Army Staff of Arda - and a member of the faculty at Graeman Military Academy , the rank of major, who was appointed as the supervisor of the mercenaries this time, brought a group of teachers and students from Graeman Military Academy to Jiaowan along with the mercenaries.
Chief of Staff Schroeder commented on Irwin as being calm and courageous in situations, and he personally ordered his name to lead the team south.
In addition to managing the mercenaries well, the mission assigned to Erwin this time is to lead the people of Graman College to investigate and study the military power of the countries in the Horn Bay, including organizational systems, human resources, and combat styles. , weapons and equipment, etc. It’s not that Huxin Town has any ideas about Jiaowan, but that researching these things should be what military academies should do. Now that there is a ready-made case like the Jiaowan War, Naturally, we should make good use of them and exercise their abilities.
"It's an honor to meet you! Master Bogdan."
Sange Mahabai stepped forward and took Erwin's hand very familiarly, shaking it eagerly.
Erwin smiled and nodded towards him, while Ferguson and Doug snorted contemptuously towards Mahabayi.
"I don't know which adult hired the black dog and the rhinoceros. Ah, let me take a guess, it must be some important person from the Northwest Bay, right?" Mahabayi heard where they came from from the other party's accent. In the past few years, businessmen from the northwest bay of the Aldo Kingdom gathered together to do business in Jiaowan. Mahabayi, who had a wide range of social contacts, was naturally familiar with their accent characteristics.
"The lord I serve is the Lord of Arda, Earl Paul Greiman." Erwin still replied with a smile. Although the personal identities of these people need to be kept secret, it is not necessary to keep which side they belong to.
Liszt, who was sitting by the side, heard this, and his eyes lit up.
"My God! The Lord of Light is above!" Mahabayi opened his mouth in an O shape with an exaggerated expression.
"I've made sure that today is my lucky day." He had a happy face, as if he had picked up some treasure.
"I have heard the name of Earl Graham. According to legend, he is a great inventor and an invincible commander. Porcelain, paper, cans, printed books, and sailboats without oarsmen... all come from this man. The earl's hand, right? Oh, it is said that he also wiped out the pirates that had plagued the territory for many years, and defeated the evil lord next door, are these rumors true?"
"Uh... basically... it's all true." Erwin was a little surprised. Has the lord's reputation spread here in Jiaowan? Thinking about it, this is normal. The merchants in the Northwest Gulf can go to the corner to make a fortune. It is really thanks to Earl Graman. The ships that can sail on the ocean, open up new routes, and will not encounter competitors’ products. It is the earl's credit, and it is natural for the merchants to worship him. When talking about their lord with the locals, they will inevitably flatter in their words.
"Then... Earl Graham hired black dogs and rhinos to Horn Bay for what? Is there anything I can do for you?"
After learning that the other party's boss was Paul Greiman, Mahabayi made a decision-to establish a solid friendship with the other party.
"To be honest, I have quite a lot of contacts and connections in Jiaowan. If you have any needs, you can come to me. If you don't believe me, you can ask Ferguson and Doug."
Erwin looked at the leaders of the two mercenary regiments, and Doug nodded and said, "Master Bogdan, this guy does have a lot of connections, but you must be careful not to be cheated in terms of price."
"No kidding, no kidding, I, Mahabayi, value honesty very much in my business."
Mahabayi tried to sell himself.
Erwin said: "Thank you, Mr. Mahabayi, if I have a need, I will consider you. The main task of Earl Graman's sending us to Jiaowan is to protect the safety and property of the people under his rule. We I don’t want to get involved in too many chores.”
"Is that so?" Mahabayi said happily: "There are many places to deal with in this kind of work. I think we will definitely have the opportunity to cooperate. In addition..."
Mahabayi looked around cautiously, then stretched out his hand to Erwin, and said, "Please sit at my table, I have some inside news to tell you."
Erwin nodded. He was curious about what the other party would tell him about this local aborigine who obviously belonged to the "informed people".
Mahabayi gestured excuse me to Raja, Liszt and the others, and then led Erwin and the others to his own table.
Liszt decided not to leave after knowing that the newcomers came from the Northwest Gulf, or the other party was still ordered by the lord, Earl Graman, and he decided to get to know the other party after talking with Mahabayi. You can also have one more fellow countryman you know in this foreign land. Raja and the other three who were sitting with him decided to ask Mahabayi for some information about the mercenary team later, so they didn't leave and waited with Liszt.
On Mahabayi's side, he ordered wine for his new friends, then looked at Erwin mysteriously and said, "Master Bogdan I don't know if the black dog and the rhinoceros are There is room to do some other tasks besides defending assets."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Oh, my lord. The black dog and the rhinoceros were originally the number one mercenary team on the Jiaowan side. It would be too wasteful to just ask them to do some security work."
When he said this, Mahabayi had a regretful expression on his face, "I have a chance to make a fortune and I can introduce it to you. Have you heard about it? Ha... By the way, you are new here now, so you probably don't know it. The army of the alliance A big victory was fought on the front line—the news came back like this, but the actual situation is a disastrous victory. The army that went out suffered a lot of losses, and it is urgent to replenish soldiers. Now, the council is busy contacting people like us People find mercenaries for them."
"Is that so?" Erwin said copiously, he already knew what the other party was going to say next.
"Haha, look, I just got a commission, and I went into a tavern to have a drink, and I ran into Ferguson and Doug. What do you mean, this is not the arrangement of the heavenly father?"
Mahabayi danced happily, "So, as long as you, as the representative of the employer, can make the black dog and the rhinoceros take on more tasks, you can get a lot of money from the council."
