Chapter 49 Cheng Lei was scolded
Duke Dozan was a little surprised when he heard this: "Didn't the Federal Gendarmerie just exterminate bandits everywhere two years ago, why are there so many bandits now?" Or a large group of bandits. How many of them are there, and who are they? ”
Dun Leha said with some disdain: "At the beginning, the federal military police just broke up those bandits, but now due to the drought in the southwest, the common people can't eat, and many people go to join the bandits, so the ranks of these bandits are getting bigger and bigger." The bandit den on the other side of Daheng City is located on a mountain, and it is said that there are about six or seven hundred people, most of whom are ordinary people who have no food and clothing. ”
"So many bandits?" Duke Duozan's face was particularly unsightly: "Now in this world, the world is declining!" I hope these bandits won't come to our Silver Tower City to disturb our peaceful life......" Cheng Lei actually knew that Duke Duozan was afraid that if the bandits came, the strength of Silver Tower City would not be able to defeat them, and it would be uncomfortable.
At this time, Dun Leha said: "Duke Dozan can rest assured, since our Tieji tribe has come to Yinta City and still occupies your grassland, then the bandits must first pass through our level when they come. The matter of being loyal to the king of food! ”
"Then the chief of Lauton-le-Ha will have to bother! Don't worry, I'll take care of the guns and ammunition for you soon! ”
"Thank you very much, now that everything is done, we will also leave!" Dun Leha is really categorical, he will leave as soon as he says, and the Duke of Dozan must know that his character is not polite.
When Qinglan was leaving, he glanced at Cheng Lei a few times affectionately before he was willing, Cheng Lei made a look and told her not to worry, he would go to propose marriage in a few days, but he didn't know if Qinglan understood it.
Cheng Lei sent them all the way to the door of the Silver Tower, and he wanted to send them again but was stopped by Dun Leha, and said: "Boy, if Qinglan hadn't stopped me, I wouldn't have let you go so easily today!" But since my most beloved daughter is devoted to you, I won't say anything, remember to bring enough dowry when proposing, otherwise even the door of my Tieji tribe will not be opened for you! ”
"Dad, what are you talking about!" Qinglan said a little anxiously and angrily: "If you talk like this again, I will ignore you!" She was afraid that if Cheng Lei collided with Dun Leha, it would be very unsightly to anyone.
Dun Leha glanced at Qinglan, and sighed helplessly: "You really don't let me worry, you don't fancy so many warriors of our Tieji tribe, you have to run to this silver tower city where birds don't, and marry ......" He glanced at Cheng Lei and swallowed the ugly words behind.
Cheng Lei can be regarded as having seen through his future father-in-law, this old guy is a cannon barrel temper, if he is not satisfied with something, he will find you a lot of trouble. Then he considered his words and said: "Commander Dunleha, please rest assured, I will definitely bring enough dowry when the time comes, and you will not be disappointed and disgraced!" ”
Dun Leha glared and asked, "What do you call me?" ”
Cheng Lei was stunned by his question: "Leader of Dunleha...... What's wrong? ”
Dun Leha was even more dissatisfied: "You and my baby daughter are both betrothed, and you still call me this?" ”
"This ...... This ......" Cheng Lei really doesn't know what to call him.
Qinglan gave him a look and leaned up to him and said, "Call Master Yue, hurry up, otherwise he will really get angry." ”
"Qinglan, come back to me, it's unruly, let people see what it looks like!" Dun Leha is starting to go berserk.
"Lord Yue, my son-in-law is polite!" Cheng Lei bowed deeply to Dun Leha.
Dun Leha's face softened a little: "I know that you are also a person who leads troops, but your power is no matter how great your power is!" Even if you become the supreme commander of the Scorching Sun Federation in the future, you will have to salute my old Dun Leha, don't you understand this rule? ”
Cheng Lei was simply scolded by him, but he didn't dare to refute it, so he said: "I understand, I understand, my son-in-law must keep in mind the words of Lord Yue, and I will definitely not dare to slack off in the slightest." ”
"It's pretty much the same, okay, you don't have to send it, go back! We're waiting in the tribe for you to marry my precious daughter!" Qinglan, let's go! After saying this, Dun Leha pulled Qinglan, who was still a little reluctant to give up on Cheng Lei, and got on the horse together.
There were thirty knights escorting them, and the leader was a tall and burly knight with a sturdy build, although his appearance was somewhat mediocre, but there was a heroic look between his eyebrows. When he was leaving, he glared at Cheng Lei fiercely, and snorted coldly, as if he had some deep hatred with him.
Cheng Lei was a little confused, this guy is not sick, why is it as if he robbed his daughter-in-law! Oh yes, daughter-in-law...... Could it be that this guy has different thoughts about Qinglan, and now that Qinglan is going to marry Cheng Lei, this guy is unwilling? Eight or nine are not far from ten, but I didn't expect this to be nothing, just to put such a tempered old man and this love rival who is not good at first glance.
Duke Duozan is a little strange, usually Cheng Lei always looks like an uncle after coming to the Silver Tower, even if the biggest wealthy man in the Silver Tower City says goodbye, Cheng Lei does not stand up and be polite. What's the matter today, how did you send Dun Leha and his daughter out so diligently, and they talked for so long before they came back.
Could it be that Cheng Lei has any other thoughts, and he wants to make some secret deals with the Tieji tribe? One is the pinnacle of force in Silver Tower City, and the other is the overlord of the grassland, if they have any conspiracy, Duke Duozan is afraid when he thinks about it. But if they really want to unite, they have to carry people on their backs, why is Cheng Lei so open-minded and so diligent? I really don't understand, I don't understand!
Cheng Lei looked at Duke Duozan's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, and had already guessed what he was thinking in his heart, so he said with a smile: "Your Excellency the Duke is probably as uncomfortable as a cat scratch now, I want to ask why I am so close to Dun Leha, right?" ”
Duke Duozan reluctantly smiled and said: "Mr. Cheng and I are the strongest allies and closest friends, I won't think about anything, Mr. Cheng can rest assured." ”
"No, Your Excellency the Duke, you have to tell you even if you don't listen to me. That's ......" Cheng Lei told Duke Duozan about him and Qinglan, and the only thing he didn't say was that he lifted Qinglan's veil. It's just that he and Qinglan are in love, and now they have obtained the consent of Dun Leha, and they are about to get married.
Duke Duozan was a little surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Cheng, is this true?" It seems that he is very skeptical of what Cheng Lei said.
Cheng Lei said with a smile: "Your Excellency Duke, it doesn't matter if you don't believe it now, you can completely believe it when we get married in a few days." But when the time comes, you're going to drink the wedding wine, and you're going to seal a red envelope for me! ”
Duke Dozan said that if this was true, he would definitely seal a red envelope to Cheng Lei to express his blessings. But looking at his appearance, Cheng Lei knew that he was still a little suspicious, after all, this matter was too unbelievable. When they saw each other, they were in love with each other, which was simply unimaginable to Duke Dozan.
Cheng Lei sat with Duke Dozan for a while before returning to the camp, and he had to send someone to prepare some things and dowry gifts for marriage. Yin Kaicheng heard that Cheng Lei really wanted to marry Qinglan, so he took a dozen or so team members to go out to buy all day long. In his words, the captain's marriage is definitely the most important thing for the entire Lion King squadron, and everything else can be put aside.
Cheng Lei arranged for him to send a team member to send a message to Zheng Bin, asking him to rush back as soon as possible, there was something very important. Zheng Bin's ability to do logistics work is the best, everything can be taken care of by him in an orderly manner, and now Cheng Lei's marriage must of course be handled by Zheng Bin.
After yesterday, the people sent by Zheng Bin reported that the construction of the wall of the base has begun, and the progress is very fast. With a professional architect to design and construct, they don't have to build like flies without their heads. The newly hired architect is very experienced, and he completed the engineering sketch of the entire city in one night, and Zheng Bin is very appreciative of this architect.
However, the architect's asking price was also very high, 50 gold wiks for drawing accurate engineering drawings, and one gold wik per day for directing migrant workers to build the city wall. Zheng Bin agreed to him without blinking an eyelid, after all, this guy's ability is there, no one can compare, you get what you pay for!
Zheng Bin was also very worried and asked people to bring a message to Cheng Lei, those people of the Jilie clan were hanging around a few kilometers away from the base all day long, which made him a little worried every day, for fear that those guys who looked particularly barbaric would do something unfriendly. That will not only frighten those migrant workers, if there is a conflict between the two sides, with the current strength of the base, it is not the opponent of those hundreds or thousands of cavalry at all, and the backing of the cavalry is the tribe with more than 10,000 people!
If it were any other time, Cheng Lei would definitely be in a hurry, and I am afraid that he would send all the people from the Viper team and the recruit company to support Zheng Bin. But now that he has the relationship with Qinglan, Cheng Lei doesn't have to worry about whether he will have a conflict with the Tieji tribe. He only asked the team member who came to report the news to tell him to tell Zheng Bin to put his heart in his stomach, there was absolutely nothing to do, and he also asked Zheng Bin to hurry back to Yinta City, and if there was something important to discuss, the command could be handed over to Shao Qian.
After Zheng Bin received the reply, he even scolded Cheng Lei, this guy didn't worry about business at all, there were so many cavalrymen with strong mobility outside the base, and every string of all the team members in the base was tight, and Cheng Lei actually said that he should put his heart in his stomach. This Lao Cheng, his heart is really big enough, Zheng Bin sighed helplessly: "Lao Cheng, you can have a snack!" ”
Although he slandered Cheng Lei, Cheng Lei asked him to go back, he still had to go back, saying that there was something important to discuss, and if he really delayed the big thing because of himself, it would not work. Zheng Bin handed over the command to Shao Qian, and then he rode back to the city on the horse of the signal soldier Jin Hanyang. These days, they have trained a lot of horseback riding at the base, although they are still a little unskilled, but they can still cope with the not long journey to Silver Tower City.
