Chapter 862: The Great Mountain of Names

As everyone drank a little wine, the atmosphere around the campfire slowly became more enthusiastic......

"Hey, surnamed Ke, what kind of country did you say you came from, what kind of country is the Kingdom of Puglia, how many soldiers and horses are there?" Gong Tieshan drank a little wine, his face was red, and when he saw Klein sitting next to him, he couldn't help but ask.

Klein didn't react at first, he was still busy eating, and after he found that everyone's eyes were looking at him, he reacted suddenly, quickly wiped his mouth, and muttered, "This ...... Your Excellency the General...... Our kingdom of Puglia has an army of more than 20,000 men...... Also, I don't have a surname Gram, you can call me Klein......"

"What, there are only more than 20,000 people, and these people dare to build a country and make a king?" Gong Tieshan looked incredulous, glaring at Klein, "You can't be blinding, right......?"

"I'm telling the truth, the size of such an army is actually not small, many principalities, there may only be a few thousand people, many nobles, and the soldiers who can be pulled out of the territory are only hundreds, or even dozens of people......"

"Tut-tut, thousands of people dare to build any country, you are so strange, no one has destroyed your king, and he will be the king himself......"

"This, King Ndali III of our Kingdom of Puglia...... In terms of blood relationship, he is the grandson of His Majesty the Emperor of the Kane Empire, the Kane Empire is a powerful country, many times larger than the Kingdom of Puglia, plus the Kingdom of Puglia has always pursued a relatively neutral continental foreign policy, so the Kingdom of Puglia is quite safe, and even if there is a war, even if our king is captured, it will be fine......"

"Ah, why?"

"Because His Majesty the King is a nobleman, according to the tradition of our side, in a war, it is not a shame for a nobleman to surrender, and after being captured, the nobleman can also ask for the treatment of the corresponding nobleman, unlike ordinary soldiers, he can also spend his own money to redeem himself, it is okay to kill ordinary soldiers in a war between ordinary countries, but if you kill the nobles who surrender at will, you will become a public enemy of all countries......"

"What kind of bullshit rule is this, if you surrender after losing the war, you still have the face to live, and you can still redeem yourself with money, is this a trafficker who kidnaps the other party or treats the war as a child, and I will go for it, what kind of bullshit aristocratic king, if you dare to use a knife with me, I will be caught, and all of them will be cut down......" Gong Tieshan scolded, and the generals around him listened to it and nodded their heads, in their opinion, such a rule is simply funny......

Klein shrunk his head and smiled wryly, not daring to refute, because at noon he had already seen the mountains of heads around Star Lake, to be honest, that kind of scene frightened Crane, he grew so big, even through most of the Silver Continent, he has seen a lot of scenes, experienced a lot of wind and rain, he has also killed people, but he has never seen such a scale of killing and war, those generals and colonels here, in Klein's eyes, are simply the spokesmen of the god of death, of course, the leaders of these spokesmen of the god of death look very young, should be the nobles of the Han Empire, Maybe it could be a prince and duke or something, Klein doesn't know how big the so-called official position of Qi Yun is to supervise it, in his opinion, I am afraid that it is a very, very, very large official position in the Han Empire, otherwise he would not be able to command so many large armies, and those who can hold this official position are naturally not ordinary people......

Although Klein was busy eating just now, his brain didn't stop, he already clearly felt that how he could live in the future, his fate was absolutely completely in the hands of that young leader, perhaps, that person's words could make him have countless wealth, and similarly, that person's words could easily make his head pile on the grassland become a vulture's snack, at this moment, Klein's mind was full of only one question - what value could he have that could be used by others!

It is precisely because of this thought in his mind that Klein does not dare to lie, because he does not know how much the person he is facing knows, he is afraid that once he lies, he will be recognized, and if he is not good, his life will be gone, I remember that the person who taught him Chinese said that the nobles of the Han Empire hated the people who dared to lie in front of them, it is said that this habit came from the emperor of the Han Empire, and their emperor His Majesty also formulated a special law for this purpose, called the crime of bullying the king, once someone lies in front of the emperor, the result is not only that he will lose his head, but it is possible that the whole family will be beheaded。 And to be honest, no matter what, at least you won't lose your life immediately, and you can win the trust of the other party.

Thinking so, Klein couldn't help but glance at Yan Liqiang, just now, Yan Liqiang's gaze looked at him, just as soon as he made contact with Yan Liqiang's gaze, Klein's heart was excited, and he felt that Yan Liqiang's gaze was extremely profound, just by looking at himself, it seemed that he had already understood everything in his heart, so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head and did not dare to meet Yan Liqiang's gaze again.

"By the way, Crane, you speak Chinese well, where did you learn it?" Yan Liqiang looked at Klein and asked.

Klein hurriedly swallowed the contents of his mouth, stopped eating, wiped his mouth, and then replied seriously Yan Liqiang asked, "Lord Qiyu, my Chinese was learned from my uncle, my uncle was a sailor, he came to Quanzhou of the Han Empire when he was young, and then he was fascinated by the prosperity and richness of the Han Empire, he said that the Han Empire is a place full of gold, he lived in the Han Empire for more than ten years, before returning to his hometown, and then he told me many things here, and also taught me Chinese and etiquette......"

"Well, yes, then how did you end up in the Gulang Grassland, and you were caught by the Shatu Seventh Division?"

"It's a long story, I wonder if you've ever heard of the name of the Orth people?"

"I haven't heard of it, what's wrong?"

"The Ors people are a powerful force that has appeared in the West in recent decades, no one knows where they come from, they are barbaric and cruel, aggressive, eighteen years ago, the navy of the Ors people defeated the maritime alliance of more than 30 countries on the Western continent organized by the Holy See, monopolized the blue sea and the Bay of Holhols, completely blocked the sea passage between the Western Continent and the Han Empire, and brought a series of serious consequences, because I can speak Chinese, a friend introduced me to the Grand Duke of Merlin of the Kane Empire, the Grand Duke of Merlin is the richest duke of the Kane Empire, and has a lot of business, he privately funded and organized an expedition to set off from the Western Continent, looking for a land trade route to bypass the naval blockade of the Ors people to reach the Han Empire in the East, I joined them, and then set off with the team, after many twists and turns along the way, and finally arrived at this grassland, and then was captured by the Shatu people......"

"How many people are on your team?"

Klein's face was a little gloomy, "Fifteen years ago, when we set out, there were one hundred and twelve people, among them there were the bravest warriors, doctors, archers, naturalists, geographers, and the most eloquent guides, we were very well prepared, but we experienced a lot of dangers on the way, and when we arrived at this grassland, we were only five people, and those Shatu people killed four of my companions when they captured us, and in the end I was the only one who survived, and I was imprisoned by them for ten years......"

"More than a hundred people, only you can survive in the end, it's not easy!" Yan Liqiang sighed.

"Fortunately, I know Chinese, and some of those Shatu people can also speak Chinese, so they can communicate, I taught them the skills of Kane's heavy infantry shield phalanx, and told them a lot of things about the Western Continent, so they let me survive......"

Yan Liqiang became more and more interested, he looked at Crane, "The heavy infantry shield phalanx you mentioned in Kane, is it the formation composed of those Shatu people guarding the Flame Temple?"

There was a hint of trepidation on Klein's face, " Please forgive me, I didn't know that they learned this phalanx to deal with adults and your men, I just wanted to live, and I didn't think so much, I told those Shatu people that the tactics of this shield phalanx are very effective against cavalry, and they are indestructible when defending, so they asked me to teach them, their priests, and organized a temple guard according to my teaching, but I didn't dare to teach them all at that time, and there were some changes and essences of Kane's phalanx that I didn't tell them, this time the adults can save me from the cell, and I am willing to dedicate all the training methods of the Kane phalanx to the adults......”

"Well, do you remember the whole route you took from the Western Continent to get here?"

"I remember, all these years I was in the cell, doing nothing every day, just drawing the route along the wall over and over again, if the adult needs, I can draw for the adult!"

"Well, you draw it for me to see, and you can follow me in the future!"

Hearing Yan Liqiang's words, Klein was overjoyed all of a sudden, "Thank you, sir!"

"Klein, your name is not suitable for others to call, I will give you a name of the Han Empire, you will be called Dashan in the future, and you will be called this name in the Han Empire in the future, what do you think?" Yan Liqiang said to Klein with a smile, Shen Teng and Shi Dafeng next to Yan Liqiang felt that Yan Liqiang's smile had a strange taste, but they didn't know that that strange taste was Yan Liqiang's bad taste.

"Dashan, okay, I'll call Dashan ...... from now on," Klein said happily.

"By the way, Dashan, in those countries of the Western Continent where you were before, what did your nobles like the most in the Han Empire?"

"Silk and porcelain ...... of the Han Empire, of course"

"How do you sell silk here?" Yan Liqiang asked casually.

"Before I left the Western Continent, the price of a tael of silk was equivalent to ten taels of gold......"

"Poof......" Zhao Dachuan and Shi Dafeng, who were drinking, heard this, and couldn't help but squirt out the wine in one sip, Zhao Dachuan was choked and coughed violently......

Everyone drank, and everyone stared at Dashan, glaring at Dashan a little empty, "Well, that's the price, I don't know if it's gone up now, before the Ors people poisoned the blue sea and Holhos Bay, the price of silk was a little lower, about one or two gold can be exchanged for one or two silk, and wearing silk clothes is a sign of nobility and wealth......"
