Chapter 233 [The Eve of the Great War]

Outside the company camp on this plain, sharp wooden piles are connected to form a fence wall, which is a relatively simple wooden wall, the wall is only about one person high, and the sharp wooden piles buried in the ground have become the best defensive weapon outside the wall.

Chen Xiaolian's carriage drove all the way, and before it reached the outside of the walled gate, a group of cavalry rushed towards them.

Chen Xiaolian noticed that these cavalrymen were wearing light cuirass, and the leading cavalry was carrying a bright red double lion flag on the tip of the spear in his hand.

Chen Xiaolian's eyes changed immediately!

Red Double Lion Flag...... Chen Xiaolian has seen this banner. And......

Just when I went to have dinner with Miao Yan before, I saw it in an oil painting in the countess's mansion.

He remembered the painting...... It depicts the ancestor of the countess, William I, the founding king who conquered England and founded the Norman dynasty.

The flag of the Norman family?

Chen Xiaolian's expression became strange.

The outfits of the three people who contacted themselves and the tire spare tire were automatically transformed into their current appearance by the system, as well as ...... The Land Rover SUV has also become a horse-drawn carriage.

So......

Plus now I see a huge military camp from the age of cold weapons, and the flag of the Norman family in front of me.

There is also a description of when the system publishes the quest......

Throne War!

"I see? Chen Xiaolian touched his nose and smiled bitterly.

The cavalry rushed to the wagon, but they showed no hostility.

Chen Xiaolian immediately grabbed the reins and stopped the carriage.

The leading cavalryman sat on horseback and glanced at Chen Xiaolian and the three of them, his eyes swept over the outfits of Chen Xiaolian and the three of them, and then glanced at a tattered flag hanging next to the carriage.

Well, let's just take it as a flag. Chen Xiaolian looked. It seemed to be just a broken sheepskin hanging from the wooden pole of the carriage, on which a ghostly drawing was a mess of incomprehensible patterns.

"You're from the mercenary food team?" The helmet of the Zero Cavalry was pressed low, just enough to cover his eyebrows, and his face looked fierce, and he grinned and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth. Obviously, the front teeth are also missing: "What good did you find?"

Unceremoniously, he poked out his spear and picked it at a piece of linen cloth behind the carriage.

Chen Xiaolian unexpectedly found that behind his carriage was half a bag of cereals under the linen, and there was actually a leg of mutton.

"Looks like you've had a good harvest, boys. The cavalryman was clearly a leader or something, "but there was a little bit of stuff." It's only enough for a team to eat two meals at most. ”

Chen Xiaolian didn't speak with a straight face, he just looked at this guy cautiously.

"Why, is the standard for recruiting mercenaries so low now?" the guy suddenly saw the spare tire. Especially when he saw that the spare tire was missing an arm, he said unhappily: "Why did you even recruit a guy with only one hand!

"This knight lord. Chen Xiaolian immediately leaned forward, sat in front of the spare tire, put one hand behind his back, gently shook his hand at the spare tire, and at the same time tried to say to the cavalry leader in a polite tone: "Although he only has one arm, he is also useful." ”

"Hahaha! I'm not a knight. The cavalry leader was visibly pleased to be called a knight, but he quickly shook his head and said, "What a hillbilly." I was a cavalryman of the Norman Legion. You're not a knight! Where did you come from, do you think it's the knight who sees you riding a horse? The knight doesn't wear leather armor like ours. ”

He was pleased. It seems that I forgot that the spare tire only has one arm.

"Alright, you guys should go back to the camp!" the guy waved his hand: "The food conscription team has almost returned." But it doesn't seem like you're getting a good job, and it looks like you'll have to run more places tomorrow. ”

Chen Xiaolian's heart moved, seeing that these cavalry were about to leave, he suddenly spoke again: "This master, please wait." ”

"Huh?" the cavalry leader glanced at Chen Xiaolian.

Chen Xiaolian immediately pulled up the cloth on the carriage. He grabbed the leg of mutton from above, leaned over and hung it on the horseman's saddle, and said with as little smile and tone as he could: "May I ask you something?"

The leader of the cavalry glanced at the leg of lamb in his saddle, and the fierce expression on his face turned into a satisfied smile: "What do you want to know? hillbilly?"

"This ...... When will the fight officially begin?" Chen Xiaolian tried to ask a very vague question, and then added: "You know. We, the mercenaries, are all here to make some gains. ”

"Greedy guys. The knight leader glared at Chen Xiaolian and cursed, "You mercenaries are a group of greedy vampires. A madman who wants money and doesn't want to die. ”

However, although he scolded twice, he still said some things.

"You're lucky to have met me. My brother was in the Duke's personal guard, and he told me a piece of news. That timid puppet king Harold already knew we were here, and the whole of London was terrified. I heard that he is urgently gathering troops, nobles loyal to him, and freedmen are gathering in London, and it is estimated that they will soon come to war with us...... But this was two days ago, and I don't know when they will come, maybe tomorrow, maybe a few days, only God knows. ”

Speaking of this, the cavalry leader glanced at Chen Xiaolian, probably feeling that the value of the news he revealed was enough to be worth a leg of mutton, and then shouted and left quickly with the cavalry behind him.

Chen Xiaolian touched his chin and looked at the figure of this cavalry in the distance, slightly distracted.

The tire spare tire has been fighting side by side with Chen Xiaolian many times, and he has long understood his temperament, and knows that there must be a reason for Chen Xiaolian's deliberate weakness just now, so he has been silent all the time.

At this moment, the tire asked, "How is it?

Chen Xiaolian nodded, his eyes were very solemn: "I want to ...... Probably yes, that's certain. ”

He let out a long breath: "Brothers, we ...... It should have been thrown back a thousand years by the system. If my speculation, combined with the horseman's complaint to us, I can be sure of one thing: we are now facing the opening battle of the Normandy dynasty in England!

That is...... The ancestor of the fairy sound, the founder of the Norman dynasty, invaded England, on the eve of the final Armageddon!" (To be continued......
