Chapter 425: Darius's Oath Speech
Contrary to everyone's expectations, since a big drunk last night, Nanyin seems to have returned to her previous appearance of chattering and having no heart all day. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But whether it is Zhang Chao, Rui Wen or the crow who is most familiar with him, they all know that it is just the appearance, the real Nanyin is still immersed in pain, and the optimistic and cheerful one used to be, as if nothing will bother him, is gone after all.
The swearing-in meeting for the expedition to Ionia was held as scheduled on the morning of this day, and the scene was very grand, in the eastern school field of Noxus, a full eleven legions were gathered here, and as far as the eye could see, nearly 100,000 troops were densely packed, and the people were neighing, like a sea of blood red.
And Zhang Chao and Rui Wen were standing at the front of the Ninth Legion, and on the high platform not far in front of them was their commander, a man Zhang Chao was very familiar with-Darius.
Although when he drank with Nanyin yesterday, Zhang Chao said that he couldn't come, but after all, he still couldn't beat the old-fashioned Ruiwen, and was photographed by Ruiwen DuangDuangDuangDuangDuang from the barracks early in the morning, and dragged on his armor and arrived at the school early.
The commander's standard armor is very handsome, the blood red represents fearless blood and is not afraid of sacrifice, the silver-white stripes interspersed with it signify the outstanding status of the commander in their respective legions, and the red cloak hunts in the wind like a banner to boost morale.
Rui Wen is very handsome in dressing, heroic, and mighty, and will definitely kill any female star of those costume dramas on the planet in seconds, not only that, but I am afraid that those little fresh meat male stars are also at risk of being killed in seconds.
But it's just a matter of seeing Rui Wen look good, Zhang Chao himself actually doesn't like the armor of Noxus very much, whether it is the current legion commander armor or the centurion armor when he first entered this world.
Especially the crown on his head, he always felt that the original Noxians (who did not integrate the blood of other peoples, i.e., the original Noxian city-states) were too short, so he came up with such a thing to pretend that he was actually tall and mighty.
But fortunately, at least Rui Wen praised Zhang Chao for a long time, and he finally didn't think this body looked too awkward.
Darius wears a helmet with a bright red mane today, and is very majestic and imposing.
The scarlet cloak fluttered in the wind, and the blood-red armor stood like a battle flag.
As the commander of the Ionian invading army, it is incredible that he sat in such a high position at the age of twenty.
At this time, he was standing on the stage silently calculating the time, and there were strict rules on the start time of the pledge meeting, and it was said that if he violated it, he would be punished by the gods, so no one dared to slack off.
Suddenly, Darius, as if sensing that the time had come, raised his arm and shouted, "silence!"
Coincidentally, the Noxian word for "quiet" in this world is the same word as the English word for "quiet" on Earth.
It can be seen that Darius's prestige in the army is still very high, especially for the nine legions of recruits, and everyone looked at it almost the moment he raised his hand, and spontaneously closed his mouth.
The original hustle and bustle receded like a tidal wave, and the huge school yard became silent - it is hard to imagine.
I have to admire the way the Noxians train their army, and think about the schools on Earth, when the headmaster speaks, the students are definitely whispering underneath.
But this is also understandable, after all, the teacher can't always beat him with a whip and a stick at every turn like your superior, and he can really pull it out and cut off his head.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are leaving tomorrow for Ionia, leaving our hometown, leaving this city, leaving our beautiful women and lovely children. ”
"Of course, I don't believe this is a problem for most of the soldiers present. ”
"The 1st to the 8th Legions, and the 11th Legion, you were all villains and moths in this city before, you did all kinds of evil, where did you get your wives and children, at most there were one or two old friends in the lowly brothels. ”
"You just want to find a good family, and people won't marry you!"
There was a hint of disdain in Darius's voice, and although most of the soldiers present were speechless about it, a trace of anger and unwillingness rose in their hearts after all.
"But I tell you, when you return from this victory, everything will be different. ”
Darius's tone took a wonderful turn, from disdain to a joking tone.
"You will be richly rewarded, and you will have a bag of gold coins to smash on the heads of old things who have killed their daughters. ”
"You're going to have a home, you're going to live a life that would be the envy of your former friends. ”
At this, the soldiers burst into laughter, and yes, they were more or less subjected to all kinds of harassment when they wanted to marry a wife, and smashed the money bag so that the old man did not dare to speak, which was a dream thing for them.
"Silence!" he raised his hand again when the soldiers were almost laughing.
"I know that empty speeches do not summon up courage, and that no matter how standard I may say, no amount of literary speech can make a listless army rich in life, or an army as timid as a mouse into a brave and good fight. ”
"And most of you don't understand either. With that, Darius made another little joke that amused many of the soldiers.
But then, Darius's face suddenly became serious, he raised his hand high, and said impassionedly: "But I know that you are not a bastard, you are not a sissy like the Demacians!"
"You are the great Noxians, you are the descendants of the brave and warlike god of war, our ancestors conquered the vast eastern part of Valoran, from a small city-state with a few thousand soldiers, to a million in armor now. ”
"They deserve our reverence, so we pay tribute to these ancestors who deserve our reverence every festival, and each of the families that are placed in the temple and engraved with great surnames has an admirable ancestor, and the festival of the god of war was born for them, so their descendants have become nobles. ”
"The nobility of the nobles is due to their merits, and in Noxus, as long as we can make a mark worthy of their merits, will General Du Kekao not give us a ladder of promotion?"
"Brothers, everything is ready for you, wealth, glory and titles, and those things that you have been dreaming of are beckoning to you right here, so tell me, do you want to come and take them?"
The soldiers' voices were like thunder, and they all shouted: "Yes!"
"That's right, as long as you want, as the descendants of the God of War, there is no reason why we can't do what our ancestors could do!"
"I, Darius, everybody knows!"
"I have sniped three times my own enemy at the Yochmama River, and I have fought the fearless vanguard of the Demacians on the western battlefield until dawn!"
"I haven't lost a single battle, big or small, so this time it is natural that I will win again!"
Darius boasted loudly about his achievements, but no one was disgusted, and his achievements were so brilliant that the soldiers were willing to serve under him, and anyone wished to follow a wise commander, and he certainly proved it.
"There are many people who say: Oh my God, the Ionians are terrible, the powerful samurai dojo among them, a few hundred people is enough to break a legion!"
"The country ...... Oh no, I can't even call it a state, because they're a loose federation of small, independent city-states, and I don't think they're up to our army. ”
"And we are not afraid of the strong among them, because I also have such a strong man in Noxus, such as him, the deputy commander of the Ninth Legion, Your Excellency Zhang Chao, who is familiar to all of you!"
Zhang Chao helplessly looked at the eyes that followed the fingers of Darius, although most people couldn't see it, but even if it was only the front row, there were thousands of eyes that could stare directly at him.
"Oh my God, he's not dead!"
"Oh my God, that's the man who could cut off one of Admiral Darkwell's arms!"
"You're crazy, General Darkwell, that's a treason!
"It's true, I heard from the Ninth Legion a few days ago, and I thought they were bragging!"
"Great, we don't have to worry about it now, we have General Darius in commanding the battle, and we have Captain Zhang Chao to block those perverted Oriental warriors!"
Exclamations and exclamations came one after another, Zhang Chao pursed his lips helplessly at Rui Wen, good guy, is this still an assassin's creed?
In fact, it is true, since Zhang Chao said that he would only complete one more task for Du Kekao, so how could Du Kecao easily give him a few small assassination tasks and give up such a good thug? He must choose the option that maximizes his interests.
But it doesn't matter, Zhang Chao's current direct commander is actually Rui Wen, it's really not good, he directly asked Rui Wen to send him a small task, and then did it, and he could get by by fooling around.
It's just that although he misses Hiko and his parents, he won't leave Ruiwen, Raven and Nanyin like this, and this time the Noxian army went out to Ionia, he couldn't rest assured that he cared about Irelia, Rengar, Aoba and Yasuo.
Although they were all fine originally, Zhang Chao has changed history, and God knows if the so-called butterfly effect will make a mess of everything?
In addition, he also wanted to see these relatives again this time, although it was very likely that the space-time corrective force would find him, but with the increase in strength, if it wasn't for too long of contact, he still had some confidence in avoiding the space-time corrective power.
