Chapter 529: A Boring Game
For a while, the chicken and eggs were messy, three pots of rice, a big pot of stewed, and they were eaten a fine light, and even a few people squatted next to the pot, using dough to dip the dregs at the bottom of the pot, and they ate nothing left.
Dafeng ate with a red face, this is a little invisible, because this woman, her face is smeared with a layer of black ash, but from her eyes, you can see that she is definitely satisfied, at this time, she walked over, stretched out her hand and patted Chu He's shoulder, and shouted: "Dumb, you have done a good job, teach the old chef more in the future, and the food will be handed over to you." ”
Chu He couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't expect to take the initiative to cook a dish, and he suddenly became a fire leader.
This woman didn't care what Chu He's face was, and left after giving the order, probably because she was overwhelmed.
The copper pig rushed over and shouted: "Dumb, we are brothers, there will be delicious food in the future, don't forget my old pig, your craftsmanship is really first-class, this taste, absolutely amazing." ”
"Yes, dumb, if there is a task in the future, we will do it for you, you can concentrate on cooking. ”
"I support it, the food made by the dumb man is much better than the food in the courtyard that day, and I never get tired of eating it. ”
Because of the meal, Chu He received preferential treatment, and also learned more about the mercenary camp and this Hidden Dragon Wasteland.
It turns out that this space is called the Qianlong Wasteland, which means that this continent is very large and barren, but to the ears of Chu He, this is a very ancient, very hot-blooded, but very primitive era, yes, the life here is extremely primitive, but in terms of war, it is comparable to those dynasties that Chu He knows, and what surprises Chu He is that the strongest person in this era can be overwhelming.
Listening to these guys bragging and farting one by one, Chu He was a good listener, and it happened that he was a mute and had no power to interject, which made it more convenient for him to learn more about it.
In one of the rooms of the ruined hall, there is Dafeng's solitary residence.
Dafeng was very unsightly with his slender legs, leaning on the stone bed paved with hay, and holding a piece of hay in his mouth, which had a very indulging taste of a man's indulgence, and at this time, with a "squeak", the half-ruined wooden house was pushed away.
Squinting at the visitor, Dafeng didn't get up, but asked, "Tong Lao is here, is there something wrong?"
Tong Lao held the pipe in his hand, bowed down, and said, "Miss, the Star King has another message today-----
Before he finished speaking, Dafeng sat up and interrupted dissatisfiedly: "Okay, there is nothing new, reply to him, I haven't played enough outside, play for a while." ”
The old man was a little embarrassed, and said: "Miss, Lao Tong knows that you reject marriage, but the marriage between my Helian family and the royal family is irrevocable, if you really decide to refuse the marriage, ----- old boy is worried that the star king will let the second lady make up for it, and when the time comes."
"Don't talk nonsense, tell the old man, the time is up, when I lose the bet, I will go back, this is my last freedom in this life. ”
When the old man heard this, he didn't persuade him again, and with the young lady's words, it was enough for him to make a difference.
Dafeng, who was relaxed before, became very depressed, raised his head to look at the starry sky, and watched a meteor slip down, but he couldn't feel a trace of beauty, just sighed deeply, and whispered: "The star that belongs to me, why hasn't it appeared yet, am I destined to marry the fate of the royal family, to be a canary, and I can't escape that cage in my life?"
Unfortunately, there was silence all around, and no one gave her this answer.
Early the next morning, when Chu He got up, he freshened up a little, there was nothing here, and he could only follow the customs, but he felt that the atmosphere in the mercenary group was not quite right.
"Copper pig, what's wrong?"
Bronze Pig looked indignant and said: "It's not because of those bastards, the leader is still worried about them, they actually voted for another group and betrayed my Dafeng mercenary group." ”
After listening to the copper pig's explanation, Chu He realized that the dozen or so people who did not return yesterday did not die in the chaotic battle, but joined other mercenary groups and betrayed Dafeng.
"Bang", the door opened, Dafeng still walked out in a hurry, looked at the crowd around the door, waved his hand, and shouted: "Let's go, you useless things, it's good to go, otherwise you have to take care of you hard, the old lady said here first, which of you has a good place to go, just go, the old lady will not stop you." ”
"Tong Lao, prepare to leave and return to the headquarters. ”
"It's the head of the regiment. ”
The hundred-hundred, began to act, except for their own weapons, there was not much superfluity, not even a horse, purely on foot, walking, very quickly, left this ruined place.
Along the way, the copper pig was still indignant, and kept scolding those who left the Dafeng Corps, scolding them for having no righteousness and no conscience.
The more the copper pig scolded, the more he scolded, and he also grabbed Chu He, and warned: "I said dumb, you almost starved to death on the side of the road at the beginning, and it was all thanks to the leader who saved you, you kid is not allowed to leave the Dafeng mercenary group in the future, otherwise I will not let you go." ”
Chu He couldn't speak, so he had to nod again and again, this bald fat man, not only is he ugly, but he is still a fucking talker, it's really unbearable, Dafeng, this woman can bear it, and she can be regarded as a very cultivated person.
Walking and stopping every day, it is a rapid march, after all, these mercenaries are not ordinary people, their feet are very fast, two hundred miles a day, it is not a problem, they have been walking for seven days, and they have encountered a lot of towns and cities along the way, and they have not stopped, they have been walking forward, and finally after seven days, they have completed all the distance and arrived home.
After the explanation of the copper pig, Warsaw City, a medium-sized town here, belongs to the Golden Dragon Empire, and Warsaw City is only more than 300 miles away from the golden capital of the Golden Dragon Empire.
Chu He actually wanted to ask, why not go to Jindu, as the capital of a country, there will definitely be a good development, but unfortunately he couldn't ask, but the copper pig seemed to know what Chu He meant, and said: "This is the decision of the leader, and several of our elders are also in favor, although Jindu is indeed prosperous, but the competitiveness there is too strong, as far as we are the hundreds, we can't be ranked as a name, but we are bullied, it is better to stay here and be free." ”
Chu He already understood in his heart that the Dafeng mercenary group was too weak, and he was afraid that he would not be able to survive in Jindu, so he came here, but the copper pig said it implicitly, and changed his words, which seemed good.
This is a castle, the area is not large, but in the eyes of Chu He, there is a very simple taste, the castle is made of stones, giving people a feeling of being a little cold, but Chu He looked at it and felt that the scenery was really good.
There are still many people stationed in the castle, and at the gate of the wall, a wooden sign reads a few big characters of the Dafeng Mercenary Group, there is no archway, and there is no so-called mighty saying.
However, when they returned, they attracted a lot of lively noise, and from the fort, a large group of half-grown children rushed out, shouting excitedly: "The regimental commander is back, the regimental commander is back." ”
"Sister Dafeng is back, Sister Dafeng is back. ”
In addition to the children, it is the old and the young, this makes Chu He very puzzled, what about the mercenary group, aren't they all elites, this old, weak, sick and disabled, can they still go to the battlefield, it is simply a combination of nursing homes and kindergartens!
"You kid has lived here for a while, don't you understand, the leader is such a kind person, take in, all eat idle food, although you are a dumb person, but at least you can go to the battlefield to help, but these are not good, eat, drink, Lazar and sleep, everything has to be managed, it is really embarrassing for the leader. Looking at these people, the copper pig is also full of emotion, people like him will also be moved, it is really unreasonable.
Chu He admired this woman very much in his heart, he raised so many people, and brought these mercenaries who were out of tune and had no combat effectiveness, but he didn't starve these people to death.
A basket was opened, and it was full of snacks bought on the road, such as pastries, such as snacks and other things, which were snatched up by these children, Chu He saw it, he had always been grinning, and the old lady kept calling a woman, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth.
An old man hurriedly greeted him, his face showing a little anxiety.
The old man came to the woman and wanted to speak, but was stopped by the woman's hand wave.
"This mission, although it failed, but everyone is also very hard, let's go back and rest, everyone's commission will naturally be issued tomorrow, don't worry. ”
"Thank you, Captain. As soon as they heard that there was money, these mercenaries shouted one by one, but not many people noticed that the woman's overflowing smile slowly faded, and there was a worry in her eyes that could not be dissolved.
Chu He did not stay either, and was pulled away by the copper pig.
After the hundred people left, the woman turned around and asked, "Lao Wang, what happened?"
"Commander, yesterday the Mercenary Council sent us an assessment notice. ”
The woman was stunned for a moment and said, "Isn't there still two months left for the mercenary assessment, why did you notify it so early?"
Lao Wang said: "No, the head of the regiment, this assessment is specifically for our Dafeng mercenary group, according to what I bribed the envoy guard, a speaker of the mercenary council said that our Dafeng mercenary group has not completed a third-level task throughout this year, and is ready to use this special assessment to cancel the title of our mercenary group and the regimental standard." ”
The woman's face changed, and she said hatefully: "Is the so-called speaker surnamed Park?"
The old king hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, regimental commander." ”
The woman said: "Lao Wang, don't worry, I will deal with this matter, and besides, don't announce this matter for the time being, so as not to disturb people's hearts." ”
"Yes, Commander. ”
The old king went down, and the old boy on the side frowned slightly, and said, "Miss, do you want me to warn you-----"
The woman shook her head and said, "No, Tong Lao represents the Helian family, once I borrow the power of the family, I will lose the bet with the old man, I only hate the beginning, I started a little lighter, and I didn't beat that Pu Gongzi to half a body." ”
Lao Tong asked: "Then what should I do, with the strength of our current Dafeng mercenary group, it is really difficult to pass the assessment, and I believe that that Pu thing will also make trouble from it, and will not let us pass lightly, if it is really unqualified, and the mercenary group standard is withdrawn, then we will become outcasts, and even this castle will be handed over." ”
If at that time, let alone betting, it will be a clean loss.
The woman was silent for a moment and said: "Isn't there still ten days left, I'll think of a way to see if I can pick a general from the short man, the soldiers will block, and the water will flood, I don't believe it, I can't think of a way." ”
Lao Tong was helpless, so he had to say: "Okay, everything is up to the eldest lady, but the eldest lady listens to my advice, if you really can't do anything, don't do it brutally, it's not a shame to be soft with the star king, no matter how you say it, it's the father and daughter." ”
A determined look appeared on the woman's face, and she said: "This is related to the future fate of our sisters, I want to control myself, and I don't want to be at the mercy of others anymore, so I will never admit defeat." ”
Lao Tong sighed, there were some things he knew, but he had no way to say it, because he knew that no matter how much the young lady struggled, it was in vain, some things were actually doomed a long time ago, and the reason why he made this bet was just to let the eldest lady completely accept her fate.
This is not a gamble for the Star King, just a boring game.
