- Franz Kafka (Austrian novelist)
After seeing the Count of Longdstead walk away, Bai Feng and the others returned to the small courtyard where Yue'er and the others were under the leadership of the housekeeper;
Except for Yue'er and Binglan, who lived in the same room, and Long Aoxue, Li Xiuning, and Sun Shangxiang, the three girls slept in one room, and others such as Li Jiancheng and Long Zhan slept in their own rooms, and among the guards, there were five people sleeping in nineteen rooms.
As a system general, Hans did not break away from the Germanic berserkers with the change of identity, but ate and lived with the Germanic berserkers with a more meticulous mentality; this is one of the advantages of self-growth system generals, and will never produce pride and arrogance.
System generals summoned from the Roman world are stronger than self-growing system generals in terms of strength and ability, but their personalities are fixed, for example, Victoria's Secret type generals are mature and stable, while Antio type generals are unruly.
In the short term, a stronger summon system general is undoubtedly more valuable, but from a long-term development perspective, a self-growth system general with more room for growth has more potential, because Bai Feng can influence their future development direction.
Of course, as the former emperor of the Augustan Empire, Bai Feng obviously attaches more importance to the system generals who are summoned; there is no way, Bai Feng, who values feelings, always likes to get along with old friends, and those summoned system generals are all old ministers who have followed Bai Feng for decades.
Another crucial factor is that among the summoned system generals, there are a large number of handsome talents that Bai Feng attaches great importance to, such as Luquis, Carabes, Spartacus and others in the Augustan Empire, Hannibal in the Carthaginian Kingdom, Antony in the Roman Empire, and so on.
These outstanding abilities, can be called the heroes of the times, are the top talents of all the forces in the Roman world, their ability is not comparable to ordinary generals, the so-called thousands of troops are easy to get a general is hard to find, that is to say, they are the only battlefield generals!
"Knock knock knock......" Bai Feng, who was thinking crankily in the room, suddenly felt that someone was approaching his room; as soon as the alert Bai Feng sat up from the bed, there was a gentle knock on the door in the room, as well as Li Jiancheng's voice: "Brother Bai, are you sleeping?"
"If I knew that Brother Li was coming, I wouldn't have been lying in bed so early. "After the battle during the day, Li Jiancheng's title to Bai Feng became more affectionate 'Brother Bai', and Bai Feng was naturally happy to maintain a good relationship with Li Jiancheng.
"Brother Li came to me quietly so late, wouldn't he want to drink and admire the moon with me?" Bai Feng, who quickly got dressed, smiled and joked to Li Jiancheng after opening the door and welcoming Li Jiancheng in: "I usually only drink and admire the moon with beautiful women." ”
"Haha, Brother Bai is really a man of temperament!" Li Jiancheng, who was also full of smiles, said seriously: "I came to find Brother Bai tonight, on the one hand, I want to express my gratitude to Brother Bai, and on the other hand, I want to discuss the next trip with Brother Bai." ”
"The matter of the itinerary really needs to be discussed carefully, today's experience is a profound lesson, but the matter of thanks, Brother Li is serious, today I am not just to save you, I am more to save myself!" Bai Feng said this in an extremely sincere tone.
However, Li Jiancheng still insisted: "Brother Bai, whether you are saving yourself or not, it is an indisputable fact that you saved us;
In the face of Li Jiancheng's insistence, Bai Feng had to accept Li Jiancheng's thanks with a wry smile, and personally poured wine for Li Jiancheng; the friendship between men is cultivated in wine, and after three glasses of wine, the relationship between Bai Feng and Li Jiancheng became more and more intimate.
Three glasses of red wine are just a warm-up before the official start of drinking for Li Jiancheng, who has a good amount of wine, and his face remains unchanged, and he said to Bai Feng with emotion: "Brother Bai, if we don't have you today, we will all be done with it, you are the benefactor of all of us!"
"Brother Li, didn't you already thank you just now? Why do you still mention this matter, you and I have said that we will not mention this matter again. Seeing that Li Jiancheng was about to pull the topic to today's battle, Bai Feng hurriedly changed the topic.
In fact, it's not that Bai Feng doesn't want to talk about his heroic deeds, it's just that there are too many secrets hidden in this battle;
Bai Feng's attitude in Li Jiancheng's eyes turned into a manifestation of humility and extraordinary bearing, so he directly promised Bai Feng: "Brother Bai, don't worry, I will never mention this matter again in the future, but Brother Bai's life-saving grace, I will never forget it!"
"Brother Li, didn't you say that you were going to talk to me about the next trip tonight, what do you think?" Bai Feng really didn't understand why Li Jiancheng was always easy to mention this life-saving grace; he was forced to change the topic again.
"Brother Bai, didn't you notice that something was wrong?" Hearing Bai Feng talk about this, Li Jiancheng's face became solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Perpignan Province is not a mixed border province, why are there robbers attacking us?"
"Not only that, but this bandit army actually has the standard weapons and equipment of the Empire, and they also deliberately show mercy to our men in battle, and they look like they want to capture us alive to achieve a certain goal, there is definitely some ulterior conspiracy in this!"
"Brother Bai, you and I have the same idea, but now that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, it is not easy to get rid of this enemy who controls our whereabouts!" Li Jiancheng, who was full of sorrow between his eyebrows, felt very distressed about this enemy in the shadows.
"Brother Li, in fact, we don't need to be so pessimistic, we haven't revealed our identities before, which gives the enemy in the shadows a chance to take advantage of. Starting tomorrow, we can show our identities and go on the road in a bright and bright way, and see who dares to attack the nobles of the empire!"
"They deliberately attacked us knowing our identity, will it be useful to show our identity?" Li Jiancheng is still too young after all, and his hesitant attitude reflects his political immaturity; you must know that political conspiracy and conspiracy are two completely different concepts.
"Brother Li, before we reveal our identity, they can pretend not to know even if they know our identity, and once we reveal our identity and go on the road, no matter what their background, it is a felony to attack the imperial nobles in public, and they will never dare to take action lightly.
Even if they dare to attack us again in the face of the condemnation of the whole world, the magnates in the empire will not sit idly by, because we represent not only our own family, but also the entire imperial aristocracy, and the authority of the imperial nobility is sacred and inviolable!"
"I see!" Li Jiancheng, who suddenly realized, had to raise his evaluation of Bai Feng to a higher level again; after the troubles in his heart were solved, he was quite happy to drink with Bai Feng for more than half an hour.
The two of them wiped out the four bottles of red wine placed in the room together, and Li Jiancheng, who was a little drunk and hazy, got up and returned to his own room after drinking;
