Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Royal Cavalry Regiment and the Praetorian Guard
Liu Wuyao smoothly boarded the ship to Wilberus. Denippe stayed on Dartbulla Island to accompany Kreman.
When Liu Wuyao got on the boat, Kleeman didn't come to deliver it, which was as it should be. A girl confesses for the first time, but is rejected, as the lyrics say, "What a painful realization!" ”
The warship drove forward slowly, rowing through the blue waves, and marching forward bravely.
"It's hard to walk, it's hard to walk, it's divergent, it's safe now. There will be times when the wind and waves will be long, and the clouds will sail into the sea. Liu Wuyao looked at the vast sea, thinking of the difficulties on the road to rescue, not only a little sad.
Alas! What kind of road awaits me? How do you get close to the princess? Guards? Court teachers? Courtiers? Buying a knighthood? Do you want to become a giant businessman?
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a man's wail in the cabin.
"Ahh My ears! My ears! ”
Liu Wuyao was annoyed, it has only been a few days since he solved the pirates, so he won't encounter any bad luck again, and he will be able to reach Wilberus.
"It hurts! It hurts me to death! The man's screams, a terrible shout, pierced through the entire battleship.
Boss Liu Wuyao reluctantly rushed into the living cabin.
"What's wrong, what's wrong." Liu Wuyao asked anxiously.
"There are bugs in my ears, and bugs bite me and bite me......" The man was a soldier, and at this time he was already grinning in pain, desperately picking his ears, turning his ears down, and patting his ears, but the insects seemed to take root and could not get out.
Liu Wuyao patted his head, this scene seems familiar, where have I seen it, where have I seen it.
People are always like this, when they don't want to remember something, it just appears in front of them, and when they want it to remember, they pat their butts and don't let you see its true face.
Liu Wuyao blew into the soldier's ear.
"Whew!"
"Oh, no, no, no."
At this time, there were many soldiers blocking the door. One by one, they were at a loss and didn't know what to do.
"Utah, what's wrong with your ears?"
"What, what's his name?" Liu Wuyao came to inspiration.
"His name is Utah." The soldier at the door said.
"Utah Utah, oil ......" Liu Wuyao patted his thigh, thinking of something.
"Hurry up, hurry up and get the oil, the oil is ......" Liu Wuyao became excited, this plot was seen in a certain medical drama.
The oil was quickly brought over, but it was a lump of oil. A golden piece.
"Why is the oil piece by piece?"
"The supply of fuel for the troops is piece-by-piece, so that we can carry it with us when we march and fight. And this oil is made with the best ......"
"Say no more!" Liu Wuyao interrupted the other party, "Give me a little water, give me a little water." ”
The soldier next to him, when he heard that he wanted water, immediately untied the kettle on his waist, Liu Wuyao saw it and rushed over to take it, bit a little oil and put it on the lid of the kettle, then poured water, and then stirred it with his fingers.
Hold him down, and he's still struggling.
I'm going, can I do it? Is something on TV reliable? It should be no problem, then the screenwriter heard that it is very rigorous. it, try it.
Liu Wuyao poured the water from the lid into Utah's ear, and then pressed his head sideways and waited.
Time went very slowly, and the strength of the struggle came from Utah's head that was being held down, and Liu Wuyao didn't care about thirty-twenty-one, stuck his neck.
Time ticked by, and Utah's struggle became more and more violent, and he kept slapping Liu Wuyao's hand that was stuck in his neck.
"Mmmm......mmmm
Sure enough, the TV was all a lie, and the bugs did not die in the oil and water.
"Ahh Liu Wuyao yelled and let go of the hand that was stuck in Utah's head, "You bite me? ”
Utah bit Liu Wuyao.
"Huhuhuhu...... You...... Whew...... Utah breathed desperately for a while before he said, "You want to jam me?" ”
Liu Wuyao's strength has improved rapidly in intensive training, perhaps because Kuti's body has not yet adapted to this growth, and his grasp of strength has lost proportion.
"Huh? Hahaha. What, I'm sorry. Liu Wuyao touched the back of his head, embarrassed, "Ah, your ears don't hurt, right?" ”
Utah was stunned and said excitedly: "It doesn't hurt!" ”
He began to pour out the oil and water from his ear, and at the same time he poured out the worm, which was a multi-legged worm, short and thin, and had a hook in its mouth, which I guess couldn't get out of because of this hook.
"I'll trample you to death, I'll trample you to death!" Utah took worms to commemorate his pain.
Warship. Around noon.
After the "bug incident" passed, Utah took food and wine to the cabin where Liu Wuyao was.
"Thank you for your help this morning, Mr. Kuti!" Utah said humbly touching his neck.
Liu Wuyao had time to take a good look at the soldier, he estimated that he was in his forties, short, thin, and the wide civil war suit (the clothes that matched the armor) swayed around him, and he looked like an old peasant, upright and honest.
"It's nothing, it's just a gesture, you don't need to be so polite."
The two of them sat down at the table, Utah put the wine and food on the table, and Liu Wuyao looked at the food, there were a few shriveled fruits, some air-dried meat, and a pot of mashed lettuce.
"Mr. Kuti, I'll pour you a glass of wine." Utah took out two wooden cups, one old and one new, the old one he used for himself, and the new one he put in front of Liu Wuyao, he poured wine and said, "I'm really sorry, I'm just a second-class soldier, and that's all there is to it." ”
Liu Wuyao asked, "Soldiers are also divided into ranks?" ”
"Of course, there are strict hierarchies in the army, take soldiers as an example, there are three levels, third-level soldiers, second-class soldiers, and first-class soldiers."
"Is that the size of a third-class soldier, or the size of a first-class soldier?"
"Of course they are first-class soldiers, and their salaries are many miles higher than ours." Saying that, Utah took a sip of wine. He smacked his mouth, looking very happy, and he continued, "At my age, I'm afraid I can only be a second-class soldier for the rest of my life." ”
Liu Wuyao's mind turned and asked, "Big Brother Utah, in the army, which type of army is the most glorious?" ”
"Then you don't need to ask, of course, the Royal Cavalry Regiment and the Praetorian Guard."
"The Household Cavalry Regiment?" Liu Wuyao suddenly remembered that when he was in Hanstar City, he had seen the princess on patrol, and there were cavalry teams on both sides of her, "I remember that the Venerable Princess Apa had a tour in Hanstar City a few months ago, and I saw a team of cavalry following her, and that team of cavalry was the royal cavalry?" ”
"Oh, that was a terrible time for Captain Barton, who lost an arm to protect the princess."
"Is Captain Patton the commander of the Household Cavalry?"
"No, the Household Cavalry is also divided into ranks, the highest is the Golden Cavalry, followed by the Crimson Cavalry, and the last is the Wind Chaser. Captain Patton is the deputy commander of the Wind Chaser. ”
"Oh! I see. Liu Wuyao sighed meaningfully, and then asked, "Then what is the way to become a cavalry or a soldier of the Praetorian Guard Regiment of the Royal Cavalry Regiment?" ”
"You want to come in?"
"What if you want?" Liu Wuyao didn't finish his words.
Utah suddenly stopped smashing his mouth and looked at Liu Wuyao in a daze. Liu Wuyao felt a "sigh" in his heart, could it be that I said something wrong, or ordinary people can't enter the Royal Cavalry Regiment or the Praetorian Guard Regiment.
"What? Do I have a painting on my face? ”
"What painting?" Utah asked.
"You haven't painted it, you've been looking at it for so long?" Liu Wuyao didn't know what he was talking about, so it was better to choke him with words.
"You misunderstood Brother Kuti, when I was drinking with the villagers yesterday, I heard about your strategy against pirates, and I felt very admired, even if it is a general at the level of a legion commander, it may not be able to command so wonderfully, it is completely a battle to win with less and win with wisdom, when you talk about wanting to enter the Royal Cavalry Regiment and the Praetorian Guard Legion, I am shocked, a military talent like you should go to the National Combat Readiness Corps, not someone who should guard the royal family."
The Preparatory Corps is the Frontier Legion.
"Didn't you say that the Household Cavalry Regiment and the Praetorian Guard were the most glorious?"
"We are also militarily trained and understand the principle of 'making the best use of people.'" Utah looked proud.
Liu Wuyao didn't expect that he would say such a "profound" word, thought about it, took the wine bottle, and poured wine for Utah: "Being a guard for the royal family is my father's lifelong wish, so I want to inherit my father's wish." Tell me how you can get into these two departments. ”
As he spoke, he poured himself a full drink, and the two of them toasted.
Utah smashed his mouth and said: "Praetorian Legion, don't think about it, they are all selected from soldiers who have had military merits for more than three years, or they are recommended by big people." As for entering the Royal Cavalry Regiment, you must first enter the cavalry probationary corps, and every year there will be a list to recruit cavalry from all over the country, you can try it? ”
"Did you miss the time this year?"
"No, you're in luck, next month is the time to make a list."
"If you enter the probationary team, will you become a cavalry team?"
"You've got to pass all kinds of tests."
"Can I enter the cavalry after passing the assessment?" Liu Wuyao asked eagerly.
"You can enter the cavalry, but not necessarily the royal cavalry."
"Well, are there any other cavalry teams?" Liu Wuyao was puzzled.
"Of course, there are many kinds of cavalry? For example, heavy cavalry, light cavalry, transport cavalry, city defense cavalry, and the highest rank is the royal cavalry. "Every year, the number of recruits in the Household Cavalry Regiment is very limited, because they select not only from the cadet corps, but also from other cavalry brigades. ”
"Can you protect the king and princess after joining the Royal Cavalry Regiment?" Liu Wuyao asked tentatively.
"The Royal Cavalry Regiment is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, not to say that if you join the Royal Cavalry Corps, you can follow the king and princess."
"Then how can we protect the king and princess?" Liu Wuyao tried again.
Utah tilted his head and said nothing.
"What? Do I have horns on my head? Liu Wuyao was a little angry, why didn't he speak every time he talked about the bone joint?
"Brother Kuti, the way you speak is too humorous, I was just moved by your sincerity, in this chaotic era, there are very few loyal citizens like you."
"Haha, I have won awards and awards, but I am just loyal to the country." Liu Wuyao's smile was a little fake.
"Serve the country with loyalty! Good words, Kuti, you're a jack of all trades. ”
"Haha...... Really? ”
"Of course!"
After Utah is gone. Liu Wuyao carefully sorted it out in his heart, that is to say, he first had to enter the cavalry probationary team, and then he had to be recruited by the Royal Cavalry Regiment with excellent results, and then enter the upper echelons of the Royal Cavalry Regiment, and then ...... No matter how Utah didn't talk about it, he didn't know. But only in this way can the princess be protected and approached.
In choosing a profession close to the princess, the Earth Staff considered it for a long time and gave guidance to be a personal bodyguard, similar to the Royal Cavalry Regiment or the Praetorian Guard. Because the center of the kidnapping incident is the princess, but there will be many "cause and effect lines" of the Bao Buqi incident, and the people around the princess may be in the "line", so if you enter the palace and break into the interior, you can get in touch with many related "lines". The other person who becomes the royal side will gain trust and facilitate the completion of tasks.
In other words, Liu Wuyao is both a lurking bodyguard and a spy sent by the earth.
A wonderful spy war is about to begin!
