On August 11, 152 New Calendar, the Tairong nobles gathered 700,000 people and invaded the Tairong Kingdom in eight ways, and local forces responded one after another. www.biquge.info Counting the local rebels, the Taeyong Kingdom will face more than 1.2 million enemy troops, which is higher than the estimate given by the Supervisory Commission.

Of these 1.2 million people, less than 400,000 are fully trained and equipped professional soldiers, and the rest are temporary conscripted volunteers, conscripts, auxiliaries, and civilian soldiers. At present, the Taeyong nobles and local rebels have not used mercenaries, and if you count the mercenaries they can recruit, their total strength will exceed 1.4 million.

The Kingdom of Taeyong had been prepared for this for a long time. The territory under the direct control of the kingdom has been fortified, and the towns have hoarded a large amount of grain brought from the kingdom of Byrons, and a sufficient number of wells have been dug. After the outbreak of war, all the inhabitants of the territory took refuge in fortified towns, and the army could not hold out, leaving the nobles and rebels to seize the land around the towns.

The rebels in the Kingdom of Byron did not respond immediately, because the army of the Kingdom of Byron remained in the country and did not go to support the battlefield of the Kingdom of Tayrong.

On November 8, 152 New Calendar, about 5,000 rebels of the Tairong Kingdom wanted to cross the border to attack Liangyue City and help the rebels in the city seize the city. The Kingdom of Byron allowed the rebels of the Tairong Kingdom to cross the border and lured the Tairong rebels in Liangyue City to revolt. The Tairong rebels in Liangyue City really did not resist the temptation and rebelled.

The Kingdom of Byron had ambushed five regular regiments outside Liangyue City in advance, and with the cooperation of the Kingdom Bank Security Force, the Kingdom Chamber of Commerce Escort Force and the local city defense force, they cleanly eliminated the rebels in the city. The street fighting lasted less than half a day, and about 3,000 rebels and rebels were killed and captured, and the losses of the officers and soldiers were less than 400.

It is worth mentioning that Taylor, who served as the guard of the bank vault, once again made a great contribution in this battle. At the beginning of the battle, about 200 mercenaries, led by the rebels, went to the vault of the Royal Bank branch and tried to ransack it. The Royal Bank security forces had already deployed heavy defenses and easily repelled the enemy forces.

While pursuing the enemy, Taylor's superiors casually said "not one will be left", and Taylor killed him like a mad dog breaking free from a chain. He pursued all the way east from the bank vault located in the southern part of the city, and chased dozens of mercenaries to the east of the city by himself.

At that time, the regular army had just entered the city, and the city defense army was engaged with the rebels in Dongcheng District. Originally, the rebels had a certain advantage, but the appearance of dozens of fleeing mercenaries shook the morale of the rebels. In the confusion, the rebels did not know that there was only one pursuer, and thought that reinforcements from the official army had arrived, and their morale plummeted.

At this time, a regiment of regular troops happened to enter the city through the east gate. The regiment came from due east, but Taylor chased the mercenaries from the south. The rebels thought that the official army had two reinforcements, and their morale collapsed in an instant, and they were defeated in just a few breaths and fled in all directions.

Taylor lost his original target in Dongcheng District, he remembered that the captain's order was "no one to stay", and he felt that the captain's meaning should be to kill no rebels left, so he found a few unlucky people to kill them. The fleeing rebels fled in a panic in the direction of the north of the city, and Taylor chased after them.

The regular army that entered the city from the north gate had engaged the rebels, who were the most numerous here, numbering about a thousand men. They relied on the defense of urban buildings, and the regular army and the city defense army could not break through in a short time. The regular army that entered the city from the north gate had two regiments, one of which was Lan Xian's regiment. Lan Xian was the commander-in-chief of the operation, and when she saw that the rebels' frontal defense line was strong, she led her people around the rear and wanted to attack from behind.

As soon as Lan Xian led his men and horses to the rear, he saw more than a dozen rebels running towards this side, as if they were being chased by something terrible. When these rebels saw the officers, they ran over and knelt down in surrender crying and screaming, but before they could finish speaking, Taylor, who was covered in blood and armed with a curly bladed short sword, killed him, and Lan Xian and her people were startled.

Seeing that Taylor was about to kill the rebels who had surrendered, Lan Xian immediately urged her horse forward, drew the sword that Mel had given her, and stopped him. Although Taylor has been chasing and fighting, he has not killed Redeye. When he saw that an officer of the regular army was blocking his way, he immediately stopped, looked at Lan Xian with a puzzled expression, and asked her, "Why are you stopping me?" Aren't they all going to be killed?

Lan Xian said to Taylor that those who surrendered could not be killed. She thought it would take some words to convince Taylor, but Taylor just looked at her rank, then nodded seriously and said "Got it".

Lan Xian saw that Taylor was simple, and seemed to be very obedient, and he liked it a little, so he temporarily incorporated him into his own army and took him to the next battle. He will do whatever Lan Xian says. After defeating the rebels in the north of the city, Taylor followed Lan Xian to Xicheng again.

It was the first time Lan Xian had met such an obedient warrior. It's a pity that Taylor's brain is not bright enough to fully understand the meaning of the order, which occasionally makes Lan Xian feel angry. Lan Xian thinks that Taylor is a soldier, so he goes to talk to the security forces of the Royal Bank after the battle, hoping that they can transfer Taylor to the regular army.

Transferring people from the Kingdom Bank Security Force, which is directly subordinate to the royal family, to the regular army, which is subordinate to the Ministry of Defense, requires a lot of formalities and is also cumbersome. In addition, the security forces liked Taylor very much, and no one wanted Taylor to be transferred to the regular army, so the negotiation naturally failed.

Lan Xian didn't give up and wanted to talk to Taylor alone. Her behavior aroused the disgust of the security forces, and Taylor's captain, the man who made Taylor make two meritorious contributions because of his casual words, half-jokingly said to Lan Xian that Taylor already has an engaged partner, and the other party is the personal maid of the Bluestone Palace, and Taylor is going to the Bluestone Palace to guard the treasury in the future, so that she should stop beating Taylor's idea.

He said this because Lan Xian was a woman and was still pestering Taylor. He wanted to use these words to provoke Lan Xian and make her never come to the security forces again in a fit of anger. Who knew that these words stabbed Lan Xian's sore spot, making this strong woman who had led the army for more than ten years cry on the spot.

Lan Xian once thought crankily because Maier gave her a sword, which shows that she wants to get married in her heart. When Lingyu wanted to help her intercede with Maier and let her join the royal family, she was really happy. But in the end, it was Lingyu who married into the royal family, and she was still alone.

Lan Xian knew that this was not Ling Yu's calculation, but in this way, she was even more sad. Ling Yu didn't calculate, because she didn't need to calculate at all. Her identity is there, and if she speaks, Maier will definitely marry her. Lan Xian's status is not low, but it is still very difficult to marry into the royal family. In other words, she just failed to do so because of the identity gap, and identity is something that sometimes can't be changed no matter how hard she tries.

In fact, as a woman, Lan Xian's identity is more embarrassing. She is a high-ranking witch and a high-ranking officer in the regular army, and she is already a high-ranking official in the official system of the Kingdom of Byrons. However, in the pyramid of high-level officials, Lan Xian is at the bottom, that is, the embarrassing position where there is more than enough to be above and more than at the bottom.

After the match, the identity of the man and the woman determines their position in the home. The New World was dominated by men, and so was the Kingdom of Byrons. If the woman's status is higher than that of the man, the man's dominance in the family will not be guaranteed. When Maier was a minor lord, he always had some scruples when he married Yishan and Uris.

If Yishan and Euris want to interfere in government affairs, he can only do what they want. Because they are princesses of great power, and they are higher than herself, Mel must consider their feelings from a political perspective. Fortunately, the two really like Mel and have never done so, so Mel can ensure his dominance in the family.

But Meier's family is a special case. Most of the similarly structured families in the New World are dominated by women, and the status of men is very low. If the man is involved, if the woman's family does not give up power, then he has no right to speak at all. In a patriarchal society, most men care a lot about their status in the family. Therefore, when it comes to marriage, most men will not choose a woman with a higher status than themselves.

Many men have aspirations for women with high status, but after marriage, only a few people can maintain the pre-marital idea of "I love her, family status and so on". Most of them will cheat because women with high status tend to have high self-esteem and a strong or even extremely controlling desire, which can put a lot of pressure on them. The object of cheating will give them a voice, even leadership, which is something that their wives will never give them.

There is also a high rate of female infidelity in this type of marriage. Women cheat on men who are often higher than themselves, or excellent subordinates, or use rhetoric to deceive their hearts. The reasons for women's cheating are not like men's, and they basically have similar reasons, and the reasons for their cheating are varied, and some are even incomprehensible to men. Because women are inherently more emotionally complex than men, it is normal for men to be unable to understand.

Because of this, women of high status tend to be very cautious when choosing their spouses. They either choose men who are higher than themselves, or they carefully choose men who are lower than themselves, but who are reliable and can live with them for the rest of their lives. However, the latter are likely to choose to break up because of insecurity in the process of dating, so most of the time they will still choose from men with higher status than themselves. As for those low-status men who take the initiative to come over and say a lot of sweet words, they are not reliable at all. They won't marry this kind of person until the last minute.

The woman in the position of Lanxian is not high, but she is not low, and it is difficult to find a satisfactory husband. For marriage, Lan Xian attaches great importance to it. She didn't want to make do, so she hadn't found the right man yet.

Although Ira's shrine maidens can live for a long time and their faces don't get old, people will always have various needs when they reach their old age. If the needs are not met for a long time, it can be empty and lonely, or psychologically distorted. Lan Xian is currently at the peak of her emptiness and loneliness, and when she has something to do, she will temporarily forget about her negative emotions, but once she is idle, she can't help but think crankily.

In this case, a loss of love caused by a misunderstanding will cause her great psychological trauma. Normally, Lan Xian would try her best to avoid this topic, but now Taylor's captain said in front of her that she pestered Taylor because she had a crush on him. This malicious misunderstanding aroused Lan Xian's sadness, making her unable to control her emotions, so she cried in front of everyone.

Taylor didn't know what was going on, but he knew that Lan Xian was probably crying because of himself. Taylor, as an honest man, is most afraid of crying when he sees a woman. He comforted Lan Xian in a panic, he didn't know what he was talking about. Seeing that he seemed to have hurt Lan Xian because he said the wrong thing, the captain was embarrassed to come forward to apologize, so he could only ask Taylor to appease Lan Xian.

During the time she spent with Erin in Hope City, Erin once told Taylor that drinking alcohol could kill her sorrows. No matter what kind of sorrow you have, as long as you get drunk and unconscious, you will wake up and forget everything.

Taylor remembered Erin's words and invited Lan Xian to drink. Lan Xian was depressed in her heart, and just wanted to use wine to drown her sorrows, so she accepted Taylor's invitation. Taylor had the experience of being deceived by Erin after getting drunk, and after knowing the truth, he never dared to get drunk again, and he usually only dared to drink a little. Lan Xian wanted to get himself drunk, so most of the wine was drunk by Lan Xian.

After Lan Xian got drunk, he spoke his heart unscrupulously, complaining to Taylor with a handful of snot and tears. Where has Taylor ever seen a woman complaining? He was grabbed by Lan Xian's arm, hiding in the corner of the table and shivering, wanting to get out of here. But just as he looked around, trying to find a way to leave, but couldn't find it, Lan Xian's words pierced his heart.

- I guess no one wants me, right? I'm supposed to be lonely for the rest of my life, right?

Taylor also felt this way when he broke up peacefully with his girlfriend in Sakin City. He had expected the girl to leave with him, for he thought she was the most beautiful, gentle, considerate, and trustworthy girl in the world, but between him and the city of Saktin, she chose the latter.

Taylor still doesn't understand why the girl chose to break up with him. At that time, he was a little dazed and a little scared. He knows that he is stupid, he will not please girls, and he may never find a girlfriend in the future. In fact, in the dozen or so years that he has settled in this land, only two women have liked him.

Erin is one, but Erin doesn't really love Taylor. The maid of the bluestone palace is counted as one, she fell in love with Taylor without knowing the identity of Taylor's sister, and she really liked him. If Taylor had stayed in the Bluestone Palace as a guard, it wouldn't be long before the two could get married. It's a pity that Taylor was finally transferred to Liang Yuecheng, and if the two get married, the maid will leave her job. The maid didn't want to give up her job, so she could only get engaged to Taylor first, and when Taylor could be transferred to the bluestone palace to guard the vault, the two would get married.

Although they are not married, the two have already become husband and wife, and even have children. After becoming a father, Taylor matured a lot, but his brain was still not bright enough.

Because he felt sorry for Lan Xian, he casually took over the conversation and said that Lan Xian would not be wanted. Lan Xian looked up at Taylor and asked him, "Will you want me?" Taylor nodded subconsciously, and then was hugged by Lan Xian.
