twenty-two
The guards took Guderian and shuttled through the campus of Nuo University, neatly built tall buildings, rows of huge ancient trees. Several teams of hundreds of people each were fighting in the small school field on campus, and the high-pitched and passionate shouts resounded in the sky. From a distance, these sixteen and seventeen-year-old teenagers have uniform heads, tanned faces, exuding high fighting spirit and full of youthful atmosphere. Although they seem to be a little immature, after joining the army, after the baptism of blood and fire in the real battle, these teenagers will be the future and hope of the kingdom. In this continent, the last thing that is lacking is fighting, and in the history of mankind, entanglement with orcs, underground races, and sea tribes has lasted for more than two thousand years. Even the Warring States period was no exception. Guderian looked at these teenagers, imagining that he should be like this back then, and couldn't help but be a little stunned.
"Guderian Glenny?" a confused voice.
Guderian came back to his senses, and a middle-aged man in a colonel's uniform was looking at him in surprise.
"Are you ——??" Guderian asked. The soldier who had led Guderian had already saluted and retreated when the colonel spoke.
The colonel was slightly surprised, thinking that Guderian had forgotten himself for nearly ten years, and was about to sign himself when Guderian's words came over: "I'm sorry, I was injured in the previous battle and lost my memory." ”
The colonel listened to Guderian's words, and then it suddenly dawned: "I heard about the battle on the Asgar Plain. We also saw yesterday's funeral. Guderian, it's good that you come back alive, and amnesia is not a big deal. I'm Achilles, and you had the privilege of teaching you some lessons when you were in school. I still remember your excellent performance at that time. The colonel patted Guderian.
"I'm glad to get to know you, Instructor again. Guderian stepped back and saluted.
"Haha, Guderian. Over the years, you should have made a lot of military achievements, looking at your captain's uniform, you should also be changed to a major. The colonel pulled Guderian along: "Go, go to me, let's have a good talk." The colonel said involuntarily and pulled Guderian away, not forgetting to turn his head and signal that the guards could go.
Goodry thought to himself, if he knew that I would soon change into a major general's uniform, would the instructor be embarrassed......
The Colonel led Guderian around the small school yard and the teaching area to the faculty dormitory. Along the way, Guderian was also introduced to the function of each building he passed by, and by the way, he also talked about the general situation of Guderian when he was at school. Guderian knew that he was actually the cold appearance of Rogris, and he couldn't help but be speechless.
Entering a separate courtyard in the dormitory, in the antechamber, the colonel motioned for Guderian to sit down at the square table in the hall and said, "I was just going to lunch, and I don't want to meet you." Wait, I'll have two of us lunch. The food in the canteen of our Yanjing Military Academy is a well-known nutritious food in the mainland!" The colonel blinked, turned around and walked to the backyard and shouted: "Roger, you go to the cafeteria and bring two lunches back, there are guests." ”
"Yes! The echo came, followed by the sound of running. Guderian followed the footsteps, and a young figure ran out of the backyard around the vestibule. The Colonel returned to the hall and sat down across from Guderian, bringing a pot of tea and two teacups.
"Come, drink some tea first. It's a pity that at school, you can't drink alcohol. The colonel poured the teacup full and pushed one over to Guderian, "Talking about the fall of the dragon guard and what happened afterward, the news of the military department was too concise. The colonel's face became solemn.
"I was injured and amnesiac in the battle where the Dragonguard fell. I woke up and didn't remember anything. Guderian recalled the situation of that day, his face full of confusion and sentimentality. After some consideration, Guderian recounted the general process from waking up to escorting the ashes of the soldiers.
After hearing this, the colonel couldn't help but sigh. At this time, the teenager who was called Roger by the colonel also brought back two meals. So the two chatted while eating, mostly the colonel asking for some details of the battle. After lunch, the colonel turned around and asked Guderian why he had returned to school.
"Colonel, I'd like to find some military books, well, I used them in class. Only then did Guderian tell his main purpose.
"Hah, it's easy. I'll take you to the library in a moment, take your pick, just don't empty it. The colonel humorously.
"Instructor, have you heard anything about my life? I want to know something about what happened to me. Guderian asked.
The Colonel muttered for a moment and called Roger over, "You go and call Instructor Cordoro and Daisy over." Roger took the order.
"Lieutenant Colonel Kodoro is your original martial arts instructor, and Lieutenant Colonel Daisy is your cultural instructor. If you want to know more about the life of your students, only they have the most contact with you. And I, at the beginning, was just taking you a queue formation and tactics course. The colonel turned back to Guderian and explained.
"Thank you, instructor. I don't remember, but I think I must have learned from your teachings in the previous battles. Guderian thanked him from the bottom of his heart. This kind of multifaceted combat quality is not formed casually. It must be systematically studied, and then applied in a large number of actual battles, so that a method of subconsciously using it in the face of any situation will be formed. Therefore, a soldier who comes out of a military school has the greatest chance of becoming a general. (Whampoa Military Academy, Yan'an Kang University, and various previous martial arts schools, most of the ancestors and martyrs who made great achievements in war were from these military academies.) )
"This morning, the military department issued an order for the school to conduct an assessment in the near future, select the top 100 students, and fill the grassroots level after the reorganization of Long Paiwei. The colonel said. It's no secret either.
"It's just that I don't know who will be the general of the Dragon Guard. "The Colonel had some wistfulness.
Guderian was a little uncomfortable...... After the reorganization of the dragon guard, his own airborne landing, I don't know if it will cause any waves. Soldiers like Colonels have been educating in the rear for a long time, providing a steady stream of grassroots officers and soldiers to the troops, and they also hope in their hearts that one day they will return to the battlefield and shine their own light. At one time they were also part of the battlefield, but the military department needed them to return to the rear to do education, and they had to obey unconditionally.
"Guderian, the reorganization of the Dragon Guard, you are a survivor, and you must be above the rank of major by then. Haha, it's amazing to be able to reach the school rank at your age. The colonel continued.
When Achilles said this, Guderian became even more uncomfortable. Thankfully, Roger is back. Brought Cordoro and Daisy.
"Colonel, what do you command. The two looked at Guderian, who was sitting opposite Achilles, in surprise, but reported to the colonel in the air. Guderian saw that Cordoro was about forty, and he was also a one-header, and his square face had a majesty of his own. Daisy couldn't tell how old she was, her long chestnut hair was tied into a ponytail, her heroic face was not very beautiful but very attractive, and her bumpy figure under her military uniform looked like she was in her twenties, and she was also like in her thirties. However, judging from the situation of Guderian in the past ten years after graduation, it should be relatively close to more than thirty.
"Come, all sit. Achilles gestured. The two of them were not pretentious, and they both sat down at the table separately.
"Guderian lost his memory during the battle between the dragons and the orcs. The colonel said, "I hope you can bring him some stories that happened in his life when he was a student." Maybe it helped with his memory recovery. "The Colonel didn't know Guderian's true purpose—Sophie and Ellie.
After listening to the colonel's words, both of them suddenly got up, no wonder Guderian didn't react at all when he saw them just now.
"Hello two instructors. I'm sorry, but if it weren't for the Colonel, I wouldn't know you all when I saw you. Guderian apologized.
"It's okay, Guderian, it's nice to see you back alive. Cordoro looked relieved.
"Me too. Daisy followed.
"Guderian, I don't know much about the things in your life. Instructor Daisy should know more. Cordoro shrugged and continued.
Guderian and the Colonel looked at Daisy.
Daisy smiled and said, "I really know a lot about Guderian's life. After all, you were one of the most handsome, hardworking and outstanding students in our martial arts academy back then. Of course, we girls pay more attention to you these days."
Guderian was not embarrassed to say this. The colonel couldn't bear to look at Guderian's expression anymore.
"Daisy, when you're old, don't think about the old cow eating the tender grass. Cordoro said with a slight sarcasm.
Daisy glanced at Cordoro and continued, "Back then, Guderian, you and Rogris were the most famous and ruthless students in the school. I don't know how many girls have a crush on you and don't dare to confess. And you, even more impersonal than Rogris, even our instructors sometimes make a slight mistake, and you will be mercilessly pointed out in public. Cordoro and the Colonel are no less embarrassed by you. ”
It would be Cordoro's turn to embarrass Achilles.
"This ...... I'm really sorry, the two instructors don't take it to heart. Guderian was also really embarrassed. Just by imagining Rogris's expression, you can understand yourself at that time.
Cordoro and the Colonel shook their heads with wry smiles, signaling Guderian not to worry.
Daisy looked at Guderian ambiguously and continued: "Guderian, you had a lover named Sophie at that time. But you were pointed out by your father as a family affair, and it is said that the girl grew up with you. I've also seen Guderian who is tired of being around you, and Guderian screams for a long time. But looking at you at the time, you just thought of her as a sister. What you like is Sophie. Most of the students at the same time knew about this, especially those female students. ”
Guderian had no expression. Cordoro and the Colonel looked at each other and smiled.
Daisy looked at the two old men's appearances and couldn't help but glance at them. Only then did he continue: "As your cultural instructor, I am very concerned about your emotional life. These two little lovers of yours have been entangled in your military school life like this, and I don't know how many girl cadets want to replace them by themselves. Before you graduated, your mother died of illness, and your father forced you to disown Sophie and marry his fiancée. You seem to have had a big fight with your father and got into a fight with your cousin. Later, you entered the army, and I didn't see you until now. Before, the military reported that the entire army of Long Jianwei was wiped out, and I thought you had also sacrificed and shed tears for you. Daisy shrugged, indicating that she was done.
Cordoro pouted with the Colonel, indicating that the old woman was really good at talking. So the two of them took Daisy with a roll of the eye.
"Thank you, instructor. I'm having a headache right now......" Guderian also roughly combined the events of the time from Daisy's words. No wonder Oga is so cold to himself.
"The young man is energetic, it's a big deal that both of them are married, hahaha. The Colonel laughed. Cordoro agreed. Daisy whispered, "Old rascal." ”
"Uh...... At the moment, I have no plans to start a family. Guderian explained: "Besides, I don't remember anything, any decision would be too hasty. Thinking of the forced marriage in the morning of Frannza, Guderian was again in the head.
"Guderian, Rogris has been promoted to general, why are you still just a captain?" said Kodoro, who finally interjected.
"That's right, I patronized you before, but I didn't pay attention. Daisy wondered.
Achilles also suddenly remembered something and said, "If you don't say it, I've forgotten." Roglis and Guderian are the best people in the same batch of cadets, Roglis was promoted to general, there is no reason Guderian you are just a captain? The battle of the dragon guards has hardly stopped over the years, and with your military quality, it is impossible to be so different from Rogris. I said earlier that it's great that you can climb above the school rank at your age...... That's not true. Is there something wrong with this?"
All three looked at Guderian in bewilderment.
Guderian thought for a moment and said, "My military exploits were suppressed by General Lyon and Marshal Volencena...... Marshal Volence told me this morning that this is a method of forced marriage. Before I returned, Marshal Odin had already nominated me for the rank of major general. The military department also approved the nomination and appointment of Marshal Odin last night. ”
The three of them couldn't help but have hot eyes, this is normal. It is impossible to be comparable to Rogris back then.
"So...... The general of the dragon guard, it is none other than you. It seems that I can only think about it. But I'm also very happy, thinking about the fact that we have two generals under thirty, it's definitely something to be proud of. Achilles was a little depressed, and then full of pride and pride.
"That's normal. Cordoro admired. Daisy looked at Guderian with satisfaction.
"This is still the cultivation of the instructors back then. Guderian said modestly.
"Didn't you notice that Guderian's personality after amnesia was completely different from back then. Daisy was a little surprised. It was only then that Cordoro and the Colonel reacted.
"Hmph, every time I saw Guderian and Rogris's cool stinky farts before, I couldn't help but want to toss them hard. Cordoro recalled.
"Loglis is said to have awakened to control the blood a few years ago, what about you, Guderian?" the colonel changed the subject.
"Well, we're still working on how to use it and refine it. Guderian said truthfully.
"Sure enough, he is worthy of being promoted to a general before thirty. Cordoro sighed. Daisy looked at Guderian with a delightful expression, as if a flower had grown on Guderian's face.
Before they knew it, everyone spent an afternoon chatting. It wasn't until the Colonel said that Guderian had come back to find some military books that Cordoro and Daisy got up and left. So Achilles took Guderian to the library to accompany Guderian to choose some books, and then sent him out of school.
Saying goodbye to the colonel, Guderian took a box of books and returned to the city on his horse in the setting sun. It's time to go back and get ready to live in the Mage's Tower. Of course, go and customize a few outfits first. At the end of the day, the plans I made were progressing, and it was a very fulfilling and relaxing day. Next, it's up to Gandalf.
When Guderian returned home after customizing his clothes, a table full of food was already waiting for him in the hall. In addition to his father, there are also Ogala, Sophie, Ellie, and the handsome Florenza. Looking at these uninvited guests, especially the Florenza marshal, Guderian had the urge to turn around and run.
"Everyone is waiting for you, not soon. Old Glenny pretended to be stern, but his eyes betrayed his love for his son for the rest of his life after the war.
Guderian had no choice but to take a good seat on his horse, wash his hands, and sit down at the table next to his father.
"Come, eat first. Florence unceremoniously moved her chopsticks. Ellie and Sophie sneaked a glance at Guderian and followed suit. The crowd was eating dinner in a dull state.
Guderian had only heard from Florence about the marriage in the morning, and he didn't want the marshal to be so resolute and unexpected, so he came in the evening. I haven't figured out a way to deal with it yet, and I want to hide for a while by living in the Mage Tower......
It was only after this dull supper had been eaten, and Ellie and Sophie had finished cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and sat down, that Florence spoke: "Guderian, what I told you in the morning, I will say it now. Frenza glanced at old Glenny, and when she saw that old Gleni nodded, she continued, "I have discussed with your father that your wedding to Ellie will be held at the end of the year. There was no doubt in his tone.
Ellie looked at Guderian with excitement and excitement, and Sophie turned pale and bowed her head in sadness.
Guderian's face was expressionless, but his mind was racing. If there is no such thing as Sophie, marrying Ellie Jie will also be married. However, from Instructor Daisy's words, Guderian knew that Sophie was his love before he lost his memory, so he even fell out with his father and fought with his cousin, and ran into the army for nearly ten years without returning home. Although he doesn't remember what happened before, there is sadness and anger in his heart at this time. However, on one side is his father and handsome, and on the other side is his former lover, do you want to make trouble again? Guderian looks at the heartbroken Sophie, and then looks at the excited and excited Ellie, isn't this kind of bloody plot only in novels?
"Handsome, father, although I have amnesia, I know that I have always regarded Ellie as my own sister, and I have always liked Sophie. I don't have a relationship between a man and a woman for Ellie, so it's unfair for me to marry her. Do you want to see that in the rest of your life, Elejie will only be married in name?" Guderian suppressed his grief and anger. After all, he is his father, the only dearest relative. Guderian didn't go too far.
"Huh?" said Frenza, looking at Guderian coldly.
Ellie looked surprised, sad, unwilling, and unbelieving.
Sophie bit her lip, suppressed the tears in her eyes, looked up at Guderian and said, "Guderian, Ellie is a good girl. Don't make your uncle and her sad for me anymore. ”
Old Gleney sighed and turned his head. Oga didn't say a word. Frannza also secretly wondered if he had gone too far, and he still looked at Guderian coldly.
"Guderian, what's wrong with me? You used to spoil me so much and love me, is it all fake? I don't understand what you said about my sister, I just know that I am happy to see you, and I am sad not to see you. You haven't heard from me for nearly ten years, do you know how sad I am? Just because you don't want to marry me, you don't even care about your father and hide from me for nearly ten years. Am I that terrible?" asked Ellie, crying, as she stood up and confronted Guderian. That unwillingness, pain, and disbelief made her about to collapse.
Sophie also stood up and said with a crying voice: "Guderian, don't hurt your relatives anymore. With that, he turned and ran out. Guderian could feel the kindness and sadness in her heart, looking at the disappearing back and trying to chase it out, but after all, she didn't. It's just that the sadness in my heart is even worse.
Oga got up, looked at Guderian deeply and said, "I'm going to look at Sophie, don't worry." Then he walked out.
Guderian stood up and whispered to Ellie, "Ellie, I really mean that you are my own sister. It's not that there's anything wrong with you, it's that I can't trick you into saying I love you. If you think you can accept this, I will marry you, and you can do it now. "Goodry is in a mess and making things up.
Old Gleni and Florence couldn't help but look at Ellie.
Ellie looked at Guderian in a daze, her big black eyes weeping silently. Guderian ...... Maybe I'm being too selfish...... I can understand my own heart. Ellieje finished speaking to Guderian, then turned to old Glenny and continued, "I'm sorry, uncle. I'm not married. After Ellijie finished speaking, in the helplessness of old Gleni and França, she approached Guderian and gently hugged Guderian, then stood on tiptoe and kissed Guderian lightly on the lips, and then turned to leave. That's the same as Sophie. In addition to sadness, it is still sadness.
Guderian felt Ellie's warmth, felt her red lips, felt her heart...... Could it be that you are doing something wrong?
With a "hum!" she got up and followed Ellie. Only Guderian and old Glenny were left in the empty hall.
"I'm sorry, father. Guderian turned and knelt before old Glenny. It was only in Ellie's questioning just now that Guderian suddenly realized his selfishness and willfulness. I abandoned my father and hid from him for so long and didn't come back to see him once. Guderian burst into tears. For Sophie, for Ellie, and for her father. My father was already an old man...... After his mother is gone, how much hatred is there? How much hatred is worth abandoning his biological father? The more he thinks about it, the more he feels that he has no amnesia in vain.
Old Glenei, with tears in his eyes, turned his wheelchair close to Guderian and hugged him tightly. This is his son, a poor child without a mother, don't force him anymore. Old Glenny thought and muttered, "It's all right, kid, it's all right......"
The day after Guderian returned, these stories, after a long time, brought tears to Guderian's eyes......
