As you liked Nine is the limit, I decided to make you an other one.

My first is a harvester,
My second is a payment,
My third comes with a surprise,
My fourth is a soldier,
My fifth comes with a maiden,
If you've found the pattern
What is my sixth?

Those definitions might be a bit broad, but there is only one answer that follows the pattern. If needed, I will add more clues.
