Chapter 127: The Embarrassment of an Outlander
In the night, dozens of bats spread their wings and roam the air to catch their favorite insects, and a pair of green eyes lit up in the forest, it was a dozen wild wolves, they were searching for things.
In order to find out the information, George came to Ximai City, which is a small city, from which the grain and grass from the rear of the Giant Elephant Kingdom will be transferred and then given to the camp of Panroni.
After being brought to Simai City, George assumed the name of Gore and joined the grain transport team and began to help the army of the Giant Elephant Kingdom to transport grain and grass, the army of the Giant Elephant Kingdom was very harsh, and only gave some crude food to the people who transported the grain, giving 20 copper coins a day.
A few days later, George followed the transport brigade into the army of Pan Luoni, and began to serve as an auxiliary, the initial interrogation was relatively strict, George's fabricated life experience was almost exposed, and the local officers were responsible for managing the auxiliaries in the following days, and the local officers were too lazy to do anything every day, George successfully evaded the interrogation and became a formal auxiliary.
A few days later, because George was a good cooker and worked hard, he was appointed as the squad leader, managing fifteen auxiliary soldiers, and was responsible for cooking for the summoner.
"Brother Gore, why are you saying that the summoners are so arrogant? I accidentally put my finger down in the dish when I was serving the meal yesterday, and I was actually hit in the mouth several times by the summoner!"
"Cha Yu, it's not my brother who said you, how can you put your fingers in the dish? Look at how dirty your fingers are, don't be careless next time, otherwise I won't be you!"
"Brother Gore, you are a refugee from the Golden Lion Country, right? You are too honest in your work, we just need to deal with it, no one really works. β
"Cha Yu, it's okay, I'll do more, and the brothers will do less! Besides, the work is not heavy, it's okay!"
After finishing their work, the auxiliaries gathered in twos and threes to chat.
"Do you know? There's a fool named Gore! who fled from the Golden Lion Country, but he's stupid, and he rushes to work every day!
"Hmph! Just that kind of fool, he was actually appointed as the captain! We are all locals, don't let him climb on top of us, how can you let outsiders show off here!"
"Gore can do the work of three people alone, and he rarely rests, it's really annoying!
"What's the matter with the extra work? Just don't do it! Or pretend! It's annoying, where did such an idiot come from!"
"Why don't we join forces and fix him! If we don't kill him, we won't have a good life!"
"Yes, tomorrow we will get some bad food for him, if he is careless and does not find out and cooks, then the military stick is indispensable, if we find out that we do not increase the ration for him, it will cost him a morning, he will be beaten if he can't cook on time!"
"Cha Yu, you are also a local, don't get too close to Gore, otherwise you will clean up with you!"
"Okay, good, I hate him too, I know how to command others all day long, I think he is something, just a foreigner! What's wrong with the captain, when the battle is over, he is not called Hanako on the street, let's squeeze him out together when the time comes!"
The next day, George discovers that he has a problem with his ration and reports it to his boss, only to be told that he must make dinner in the morning.
How can he cook without normal things? Go to the ration and get it again, and they tell him that the current ration has been exhausted, who told him not to come early? What did he do earlier?
George felt the smell of conspiracy, but he was also helpless, he couldn't do anything at the moment, it seemed that the deep-rooted class consciousness and xenophobic consciousness in the south were very serious, and he not only worked hard but also was serious and responsible, but he was still regarded as a thorn in the side of the locals.
George knew he would be beaten if he continued like this, but he had to do something!
Afterwards, George used various seasonings to cover up the smell of corruption, and then loaded the prepared meal into a large cart and sent it to the summoner's training camp in advance.
As he passed by a group of auxiliaries, George deliberately knocked over a wooden bucket of soup and spilled the hot soup on several of the auxiliaries.
"Gore, you are a stranger! You really don't know how thick the sky is! How dare you splash us with soup? Are you impatient?"
"Why? I haven't pursued your responsibilities yet? What are you doing while I'm working? Although you are not my subordinates, you are all auxiliaries, and you don't help me when I deliver food alone?"
"I'll help your grandma catch it! You stupid x, see if Lao Tzu doesn't beat you!"
With that, the auxiliary punched George in the face. Look.Mao.Line.Chinese.Text.Net
This level of injury could not have hurt George, but George pretended to be seriously injured, and he also took advantage of the wooden cart that delivered the food.
"Help, help, get around me, stop hitting me!"
George yelled as he ran, alarming many people around him, and several summoners who were training heard the voice and came over and asked, "What are you guys arguing about? Don't you see us training?"
George made himself miserable, and rolled on the ground, intentionally or unintentionally, so that he was covered in vegetable soup.
"Master summoner, I am an auxiliary soldier to deliver food to you, but these boys around me actually bullied me because I am a foreigner, and they also overturned the wooden cart that delivered food, you see, all the meals are not edible!"
"What? fuck off! What are you guys doing? Why are you bullying him?"
Several auxiliaries also panicked at this time, and one of them scolded impatiently: "Didn't you just spill the rice? If you go back and do it again, what are you calling a foreigner? What if we beat you? Who told you that you are a foreigner! You deserve it!"
Whoever you want to say, if others may not care too much, they may just let George go to get the ingredients again and cook again, but these summoners are different, their ancestors used to be people from the Black Diamond Kingdom, and the people of the Giant Elephant Kingdom have not regarded them as their own people at all over the years, except in the Xisa Plain, these summoners will also suffer a lot of white eyes when they go to other places.
A summoner was a little annoyed and scolded: "What are you talking about? It's okay for you to fight privately in the barracks, and you have no respect, look at what rank I am, look at what rank the auxiliary soldier you fight, you still dare to make a big deal about it here, I don't think you want to live anymore!"
With that, the summoner drew his long sword, slashed down the soldier just now, pointed at the other auxiliaries with his sword, and said: "Get out! If you don't work every day and just make trouble here, I think you just don't clean up! Take that thing that doesn't have long eyes, get out quickly!"
The auxiliaries all frowned, although they didn't dare to continue to talk back, but their eyes were full of resistance, obviously not buying the summoner's account very much.
"Hmph, what's the matter, a group of losers of the Heizun Kingdom, majestic in front of us! Let's go! Go and complain to our local general! I'm still afraid of him, if he dares to kill our people, we won't give them food, who is afraid of whom?"
George lay on the ground, pretending that he was badly injured, rubbing his chest repeatedly with his hands, showing a grinning expression.
A summoner named Mostir picked up George and said, "Are you an exile from the Golden Lion Kingdom?"
George said, "Yes, please wait a while, and I'll cook again!"
Much later than the normal meal time, George recollected the ingredients with the help of Mostyr and made a lot of food to re-deliver to the summoners and lunch.
"You kid makes something good!
"Sir, you've won the award, I don't have any other skills, just cook a little bit and eat a little bit. β
"Where did you live, where is the hometown of the Golden Lion Kingdom?"
"Back to my lord, I used to live in the Gale Plains, where there were many wars, and then my family was separated in the war, and I was left to flee here alone. β
"Oh, do you know how the Capetian family is doing?"
"Back to the master, the Capet family participated in the rebellion several times and was convicted of treason by the first king, and later the Golden Lion family became the new king, and I don't know what happened next. β
"Hmph, those bastards of Isis, they were all killed! It's a pity! The Capetian family is not all bad people. β
Several summoners silently left tears, obviously, many of these people are from the exiled Giant Elephant Kingdom of the Capet family, and some of them still have some feelings for the Capet family, and when they hear that the Capet family is almost extinct, it is difficult to suppress the sadness in their hearts.
"You kid will follow us in the future, those people from the Giant Elephant Kingdom will take revenge on you, if you don't have a backer, I'm afraid you will be killed, I will apply for a place for you in the future, and you will be assigned to our summoner army, are you willing?"
"My lords, your hearts are so good! I thank you!
"Hmph, boy, don't forget that this is the Giant Elephant Country, praise the goddess of radiance! β
Within a few days, George was familiar with several summoners, and he also learned about the past many years ago.
The Duke of Siza's ancestors were originally the royal family of Isis, but he lost the throne and fled to the Elephant Kingdom, and then conquered the Plain of Sisa for the Giant Elephant Kingdom and established the fortress of Buvelon.
Most of the ancestors of these summoners were summoners taken in by the Duke of Cesar, and one of them was a special unit, they were a side branch of the Capetian family who supported Andrei's elder brother to seize the throne before Andrei ascended the throne, and fled to the Giant Elephant Country after defeat.
After these people defected to the Duke of Cisa, they were reused by the Duke of Cisa, but these strangers were the same as the Duke of Xiza, they could only stay on the edge of the Giant Elephant Country, and were not accepted by the native people of the Giant Elephant Country.
George thought that the Duke of Cesar's status was transcendent, but he didn't expect the Duke of Cesa's situation to be so embarrassing, and this was also an opportunity to be able to catch up with the Duke of Cesa.
A few days later, Pan Roni inspected the troops, because she was overwhelmed by George's sneak attack, Pan Roni adjusted the layout of the troops, and began to build a strong camp to eliminate the possibility of stealing the camp, and also built many towers to reconnoiter the surrounding situation and control the commanding heights.
"Boy, wait a minute, pay attention to etiquette and politeness! Lord Count Penroni is coming to inspect the army!"
"Master, don't worry, I will definitely salute according to the etiquette you taught me!"
As Pampani walked past the group of summoners, he saw the stout George, who had obviously never been seen before, and was dressed strangely, not like a summoner but like an auxiliary?
"Can you tell me what is the situation of this person? The local auxiliaries are not in the same sequence as us, we don't want locals!"
"Lord Duke, the fugitives from their Gale Fortress have fled here!"
"Oh, boy, what's your name?"
"Lord Earl, my name is Gore, please don't blame the eldest brothers, I am here myself, because I have offended the locals, so the eldest brothers take care of me and let me stay and cook. β
"Hmph! If we hadn't fought so hard here, where would the locals have been so comfortable? They should have shed blood! These bastards are so presumptuous!"
Although Pan Luoni was angry, she knew that she and her family were just the watchdogs raised by the Giant Elephant Kingdom in Xisa City, and they would not be able to get any benefit from studying deeply, so after scolding for a while, she withdrew.
George took this into his eyes, and it seemed that he was going to gain a powerful ally!
The crescent moon is like a hook, a few melancholy clouds slowly pass through the sky, the mottled moonlight is particularly cold, Pan Luoni squatted on a high platform with her stomach, looking at the moonlight in the distance Meteorite City, her heart is infinitely sad.
His family has gone through so many generations, but he still can't integrate into the giant elephant country, every time he hands over the task of charging ahead to his own family, and when he is knighted, he has no chance with his own family, on the surface, his family is infinitely beautiful, but as long as he takes a wrong step, he will never recover.
This time, the royal family obviously threw a problem to their family, the armor of Meteorite City is sharp and easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the army brought by himself cannot beat Meteorite City, and the daily consumption of the army is increasingly deducted by local officials, except for the elite soldiers in their own hands, other soldiers have reduced the food supply, so it will definitely be the end of defeat, but what can be done to solve this crisis? But since Abba has handed over the power to himself, he has great expectations for himself, if he can't solve this crisis, then he can only become a man's appendage in Xisa City in the future, where should he go?
Under the high platform, George came to Pan Luoni with a pot of pheasant and mushroom soup, and shouted: "Lord Earl, you haven't eaten much in the past few days, I specially caught a pheasant from outside the camp and stewed a pot of soup, you can come down and eat some!"
Pan Luoni couldn't cry or laugh a little, when did it take a cook's turn to care about her body? This cook is also big-hearted, isn't he afraid of being hurt by a wild wolf? But the taste of this soup... It's fragrant!
Pan Luoni turned over and crossed the high platform, tasted a few bites and began to eat in large gulps, these days really did not have much mood to eat, the delicious chicken soup awakened her stomach, and soon Pan Luoni ate a pot of chicken and chicken soup with a golden light.
"What's your name? Forget! You're good at chicken soup!"
"My name is Gore, Lord Earl, and if you think it's delicious, I'll go back and get a few pheasants!"
"Come on! You kid is really different from those scum of the southern country, you are really diligent in your work, and you are also a sincere person! I admire you very much! If I give you an officer in the future, can you do a good job?"
"Lord Earl, don't look at me as big and thick, I'm not very bold, let me go to the battlefield with a knife and a gun to kill people, I don't dare, I can kill chickens and rabbits at most or something. β
"Hmph! I really don't see it! You're so cowardly! No wonder you fled here, you know? Many people from the Golden Lion Kingdom have fled to Ammesvalon! Legend has it that it's a pure land!
"Do you want to go, Lord Earl?"
"Gore, I'm not afraid to tell you! I really want to go, I really want to meet the Duke of Crescent, to see if the land of the Crescent Federation is the same as the legend, and can make most people live in peace, but it's a pityγγγ β
"What is the pity, Lord Earl, you can go, and there are no restrictions!"
"What do you know? My family is special, others can have an accident with the Crescent Federation, or pretend to be a caravan to investigate, but I can't, the Xisa Plain is our family's cage, we can't go anywhere!"
"Lord Earl, aren't you in Falling Star City right now, aren't you in a cage?"
"Hee-heeγγγ You idiot, you don't even know what I'm talking about... Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you, you come with me, I'll give you a light crossbow, and then you go and get me a few more pheasants to come back, the chicken soup you make is delicious!"
Pan Roni took out a few light crossbows, and the light crossbows developed by George were picked up by Pan Roni from the battlefield.
"Gore, you see that this kind of light crossbow is very convenient, and the weight is also very light, if there is a cavalry equipped with a light crossbow, then this cavalry team can come and go like the wind, our army is dragged by this light crossbow cavalry, otherwise we would have taken Meteor City a long time ago!"
George looked at the light crossbow in his hand and said, "The earl is very hot, then you can also make it? Then you can also build a light crossbow cavalry, won't it be solved?"
Pan Luoni sighed: "Fool, if only it were so easy, do you know how difficult it is to train this army? First of all, those knights must be skilled in horsemanship, and the production of this light crossbow is relatively complicated, and the craftsmen of the Giant Elephant Kingdom cannot produce it in large quantities!"
George took the light crossbow and gestured for a moment, and said, "Sure enough, it's very light and easy to operate, and people like me who have no training can operate it." β
Pan Luoni frowned and said: "The key point is here, I heard that the troops of Falling Star City were still short bows when they fought before, and then they became longbows, and then they became crossbows! The speed of the opponent's weapons is too fast, what kind of logistics troops can make tens of thousands of troops quickly change their outfits so quickly! Do you know Gore, I used to think that the Crescent Federation was a group of horse thieves like everyone else, but as I learned more and more about the Crescent Federation, I realized how powerful our opponents were! And the other side still has so many military talents, and when I played against the other side a few days ago, the other side actually used very few troops to fight us so that we could not find the north! Can you imagine that feeling of powerlessness?"
George comforted: "Don't worry, Lord Earl, there will always be a way! And since you want to visit the Crescent Federation so much, why don't you go and make a trip?" Find someone: "Gore! I don't think you're as timid as you say! I think you're very bold! Who are you? You can't be the one sent by the Duke of the Crescent to lobby me, right?"
George shuddered, and then laughed, "How so? Lord Earl, you laughed! β
Pan Roni threw George a pack of crossbow arrows and said, "Hmph, yes, how can you be? I'll just scare you, see how scared you are! I'm too timid! When I'm done tomorrow, I'll get some pheasants back!"
George put away the crossbow bolts and smiled: "Don't worry, Lord Earl, I will make you chicken soup tomorrow!"
With that, George trotted away and disappeared!
Pan Luoni looked at the crescent moon thoughtfully, and said to herself: "This person is a little wrong, although he looks timid and afraid, but he always feels that he has the temperament of being a soldier, and his demeanor when he approaches me is so natural, eighty percent is a secret agent, it seems that I have to find someone to try him!"
