Chapter 57: The Rescue of China

It's snowing.

Luo Lan woke up one morning and heard the screams of children on the street. The children had never seen snow before, and they were not worried about the cold, so they naturally watched the snow fall with joy.

Luo Lan opened the window, and fine snowflakes immediately drifted in. This is not a terrible goose feather snow, but a mild light snow of broken flowers.

Over the island, the wind was still howling, but it was much smaller than before, and many people ran out of the streets, and some young men and girls even had snowball fights.

Luo Lan put on his coat and walked up to the city wall to look at the endless Uttar Pradesh.

The wheat fields as far as the eye can see are covered with a layer of snow, and the wheat that had been blown by the wind for the past two days was covered with a protective cover.

The huge island of Phuket is not only snowed in Uttar Pradesh, but also in many places in the south.

In the sprawling riverside buildings in the south, thousands of peasants, wrapped in thin linen clothes and roasting anthracite, watched the snowflakes fall from the sky through the cracks in the doors and windows.

"Sure enough, it's snowing, and the wheat won't be blown off this time!" The old farmers were ecstatic, and their greatest concern was the wheat.

"It's really cold this year, if His Royal Highness didn't let us come to the castle for the winter, we would have frozen to death."

"His Royal Highness the Prince is a god, he has conquered all the evil black stones."

The peasants talked a lot, and their admiration for Luo Lan was overflowing.

In the midst of the eager discussions, a sleepy old man sitting by the fireplace suddenly said, "By the way, do you think Count Abbe will send us food?" ”

This is the lower southern end of the Phuket River, a few kilometres further down to the central range of Phuket, on the other side of which is the fiefdom of Count Abbe.

The peasants who lived here knew Count Abbe, so the old man by the fireplace mentioned it, and everyone was interested.

"A few years ago, when it snowed, he sent someone to send food and clothes to us, and this year it also snowed, so it should be delivered, my child wants to eat mutton." The women drooled, and they all looked forward to Count Abbey's help.

While they were discussing, the official in charge of managing this place scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, Count Abbe and His Royal Highness the Prince don't get along, be careful of making His Royal Highness the Prince angry." ”

"Can't get along? What do you mean? Everyone is from Phuket. "The simple peasant didn't understand the contradictions at the top, and the official didn't understand either, he only learned about it by listening to the small talk of the guards he knew.

"Anyway, don't talk about Count Abbey, if he brings food, we can't ask for it."

"Huh? Why? ”

The castle exploded, and the noise silenced the howling of the wind.

At this time, at the foot of the big mountain that separates the north and south of Phuket Island, there is a group of soldiers camping. There were no more than thirty of them, and there were three of them, and Charles was one of them.

Charles was dressed in a thick coat, staring through the snowflakes and staring at the mountain road in front of him.

The mountain road has long been deserted, and only the traces of stepping on it can be faintly seen. The mountain road traveled around the mountain until it finally reached the southern state on the other side of the mountain, the fief of Count Abbe.

Behind Charles, Barrett, who was nibbling on dried beef, said depressedly: "I said Lord City, I have to go back to the city on a business, what are you asking me to do here?" Do you want to go hunting in the mountains? ”

Barrett, as the leader of the Guards, should have gone to protect Luo Lan when he was fine, but now he was dragged to the southernmost point by Charles.

Charles rubbed his cold palms and muttered, "If I'm right, there will be soldiers coming from the mountains later, and we're going to intercept them." ”

"What?" Barrett was taken aback and looked at the mountain road in astonishment, "You mean, Count Abbe's soldiers?" ”

Charles snorted, the look on his face was complicated, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Barrett is not a fool, he has been following Luo Lan for a while, and he knows that Luo Lan has a grudge against China.

Now he has to face the soldiers of China, which really doesn't feel right.

"Charles, what to do? That's kind of ...... Illegal entry? Why did they come to the north? "Barrett hasn't fought, he's a little bit cowardly.

Charles's face turned cold: "Don't talk nonsense, the Southern State has always been the territory of the prince, where did it come from to enter the country illegally?" They don't come to fight, don't be afraid. ”

Although Charles was comforting Barrett, his face and tone were very solemn, which made the air tense.

Barrett observed his words and quickly ordered his soldiers to prepare their weapons.

"Don't be nervous, it's just to send us something, the reason why I intercepted it is because I don't want the Southern Pradesh to know our secrets, and the bee coal can't be leaked now." Charles glanced at the nervous Barrett and said helplessly.

Barrett was even more confused: "What? Sending something? ”

As soon as the words fell, the sound of horses' hooves sounded.

On the narrow and desolate mountain road, accompanied by snowflakes, a cavalry of hundreds of people appeared.

These cavalrymen did not ride horses, they led their horses on foot, and the horses carried a lot of material on their backs.

It was a substance sent by Count Abbey.

Count Abbey was a very good man, and although no one had ever seen him, anyone who had experienced a harsh winter would say that Count Abbey would bring things over when it snowed, saving the lives of dozens of villages.

Seeing the sudden appearance of the strong team, Barrett and his party suddenly changed their faces.

They are Luo Lan's guards, they are elite, but compared to the cavalry in front of them, they are simply rogues.

The cavalry of the southern state uniformly wore heavy armor, wore fine iron swords and horned bows, and the horses were all high-headed horses, and the quality of each cavalry was no worse than that of the southern plains.

Reflective Barrett and his entourage, sitting without sitting and standing without standing, are stronger farmers.

"We were sent by Count Abbe to save you." The cavalry on the mountain road spoke, interrupting the contrast between Barrett and his party.

Barrett stuttered a little at this moment, and didn't speak. It was Charles who stepped forward and said calmly: "Thank you, Count Abbe, please unload the material, and our prince will repay you in the future." ”

Charles's words surprised the cavalrymen, they were smart people, they understood what Charles meant, and they were not allowed to "enter".

A cavalry leader leaned on his horse and drank wine and looked at Charles with a mocking eye.

"Who is this adult? I remember that the lord of this area was Jiba, and he asked you to stop us? The cavalry leader teased, his tone full of disdain.

Charles replied calmly: "Yes, Lord Jiba is seriously ill and it is inconvenient to come to greet him, please hand over the material to me." ”

When the cavalry leader heard this, he suddenly drew his long sword, and the knights behind him all pulled out their long swords when they saw this, and hundreds of fine iron long swords trembled, and in an instant, they were murderous, and the horses neighed.

Barrett and his party were startled, but in order to protect Charles, they had to draw their swords and step forward.

But their battle was like ploughing a field, and all the knights on the other side laughed.

Charles didn't move, calm as snow.

The cavalry leader thrust his sword into the snow and said in a domineering voice: "We don't need to say hello to any lord here, the lord is a bird." We are here to save the peasants, Count Abbe can't bear to freeze the peasants to death, get out of the way. ”

The leader was mighty, and hundreds of knights stepped forward, shaking the snowdrifts on the trees.

With such momentum, the rainbow runs through the sun.

Barrett's guards were all frightened, and their hands holding swords were shaking, after all, they had never been on the battlefield, and in the face of the provocation of the wealthy cavalry of the Southern State, they had no confidence to fight at all.

Charles exhaled lightly and strode forward.

Fearless of the cavalry, he walked straight up to the leader, and then took out a wolf's tooth pendant from his bosom.

It was a polished wolf tooth.

When the cavalry leader saw the wolf's teeth, his face suddenly changed suddenly, and there was no longer any evil spirit.

"You are ......"

"Unload the substance and get out of here."

Charles said coldly, the cavalry leader's throat squirmed, and he nodded hurriedly.

In less than an hour, all the material was piled up on the flat ground in front of Charles, and hundreds of sturdy horsemen led their horses away without looking back.

Barrett and the others were already dumbfounded, and they all stared at Charles strangely.

Charles waved his hand: "Move to the castle and distribute it to the peasants." I will first go back to Phuket City to look for the prince, and something big is going to happen in the southern state. ”

"This ...... Lord Charles, who are you? ”
