Captain Jeffrey held the untouched queen toast bread in both hands, and gently pinched the bread with his hand, and his fingers gently sank down, slowly loosening the finger prints on the bread and gradually calming down.

Holding the queen toast bread close to his nose and sniffing gently, the sweet smell lingering around his nose, Captain Jeffrey vaguely felt as if he was in heaven.

Looking at the intoxicated expressions of the three cavalry captains Jeffrey, Wayne, and Harrison each holding the queen's toast bread, but they were reluctant to eat it, William couldn't help but remind: "Captain Jeffrey, Wayne and Captain Harrison, you guys hurry up and eat bread, if it's cold, it won't taste good, don't be reluctant to eat it, especially this queen toast bread will spoil if it doesn't last for a few days." ”

Even if they were reluctant to eat this delicacy in the world, hearing William's words, Captain Jeffrey and the others had to open their mouths and gently bite into the queen's toast bread.

With a gentle bite of his teeth, the corner of the queen's toast bread was bitten and held in his mouth, and the soft bread was wrapped in his mouth, and the sweet taste of honey and vanilla pulsed on the tip of his tongue, making Captain Jeffrey unable to help himself.

Captain Jeffrey chewed gently, and the queen toast in his mouth was completely free of the hardness and dryness of black bread, as if it had melted in his mouth, and after just a few chews, the bread seemed to turn into sweet juice and involuntarily flow into his throat.

The throat swallowed gently, the sweet taste in the mouth did not completely dissipate, and Jeffrey closed his eyes one after another, reminiscing with an intoxicated face.

Every time he took a bite of the Queen's Toast, Captain Jeffrey had to chew it many times, as if to say that the sweet taste of the bread would remain in his mouth forever, and he would have to relive the taste of the Queen's bread again and again after taking a bite.

William couldn't stand the appearance of Jeffrey's three eating bread, and turned his head to look at Faller, Sir Hubert, and Steward Osborne, and it turned out that the three of them were the same way, but they didn't have as long as Captain Jeffrey and them.

William covered his face speechlessly, held his forehead and smiled bitterly, thinking to himself: "I am not indigenous to the European Middle World, and there are some things they take for granted that I can't accept, this way of eating the queen's toast bread may be a medieval custom." ”

In fact, the queen's toast bread can be said to be the top food in the Middle Ages, even the king is reluctant to eat the queen's bread every day, let alone the knightly class of Faller, Hubert, and Osborne, who may take a year to eat a piece of the queen's toast bread rewarded by the great lord, of course, they must cherish it and taste it carefully.

As for William, who didn't take the queen's toast bread seriously, it was definitely an outlier in the Middle Ages.

William held his chin with one hand, grabbed a pretzel with his right hand, and took a bite of it, the aroma of peppercorns, the saltiness of the salt, and the crispy texture made William enjoy it very much, and he couldn't help but make a sound of enjoyment.

After Jeffrey and the three of them finished eating the queen's bread in their hands, William looked up at the three of them and said, "Jeffrey, Wayne, Harrison, I want to form an infantry company of 150 people, and any of you are willing to be the company leader of this infantry company." ”

At this time, Wayne's expression was a little hesitant, and it was obvious that he was reluctant to leave the cavalry and go to the infantry.

The other two on this side, Harrison seemed a little impatient and eager to try, while the young and mature Captain Jeffrey said with a calm look: "My master, His Royal Highness William, I am willing to lead the infantry company." ”

William's eyes repeatedly roamed the faces of the two, and he said: "Captain Jeffrey, from now on, you will be the company leader of the infantry company, and now your soldiers are the 150-man conscripts, and you can choose any weapons and equipment from our captures, I think it shouldn't be difficult to train them well, right, Captain Jeffrey." ”

"Your command, my mission, my master, His Highness William." Jeffrey got up, stroked his chest, and bowed to the command.

"Captain Jeffrey, you must do a good job of training soldiers in the shortest possible time, you know? Then go ahead and get busy. With that, William got up and sent the three of them out of the tent.

William returned to his seat, saw that all three of them had finished their bread and wine, looked at Faller, and said, "Faller, how many boats have been collected in the vicinity this morning, and are they enough to carry our army across the river?" ”

"Mylord, I have sent 30 cavalry to collect ships this morning, and they have returned before the celebration feast, and have collected a total of 15 cargo ships and fishing boats, and more than 70 boatmen and sailors, plus the captured Viking dragon ship, it is already more than enough." Faller stood up and stroked his chest and saluted.

William smiled and nodded, looked around at everyone, and said, "Faller, Sir Hubert, Steward Osborne, what do you think of our army going directly up the Seine River to Lenebor?" ”

"Your Highness William, please cross the river with your army and take the overland route to Lenebor. Our cavalry will not be able to play to the advantage of the ships and will likely be defeated if they encounter another attack by Vikings, but by land, we are confident that we will defeat any enemy we encounter. When Sir Hubert heard this, he stood up with an excited face and said.

Seeing Hubert's excited appearance and analysis so reasonable, William did not carry the idea of insisting on taking the waterway, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Sir Hubert, since this is the case, then let it be your arrangement." Thank God that you are by my side and faithfully support me. ”

"His Royal Highness William, this is what we should do." Faller, Sir Hubert, and Steward Osborne stood up and bowed.

William hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, don't be so serious, I just feel it." ”

Having lived in medieval Europe for five years, William was sometimes unaccustomed to them.

......

The good times were always short-lived, and the knights were able to eat white bread made of fine flour and various dishes and drinks in the morning, and even the levies were occasionally given a soft white loaf or two.

This celebration is destined to be a fond memory that many people will never forget.

The speed of the camp was very fast, and it was originally a camp temporarily surrounded by baggage wagons, as long as the baggage was loaded and the horses were pulled.

On the banks of the Seine, the dragon-headed warships and large cargo ships carried away the four-wheeled wagons and horses, while the cavalry and levies went to the other side of the river with the remaining cargo ships and fishing boats.

William was on the bow of the Viking dragon's ship, looking around, a huge fleet of more than a dozen people crossed the river to stop the busy Seine River in two, and the surrounding ships saw the red background double lion flag of the fleet and avoided it.

Faller, who had already taken the lead, waited on the other side of the Seine, waving.
