Zhang Xiaofan's golden pill matured three months ago, faded into a baby, and the dragon and tiger converged, attracting the thunder tribulation to the world. In fact, a month has been restored, and the strength has been scored. The remaining two months were just a matter of retreat and consolidation.

However, he did not want to tell Valerie that it was a test of the girl's sincerity towards him, and he also decided whether he wanted to get rid of her father Cesar so that he could complete the random task sooner.

Valerie didn't know any of this, only that she couldn't see her sweetheart when she was hurt. Lost the joy of the past, and began to worry about living every day. This went on consistently for almost three months, until another big event occurred in the village.

It should be said that another big event has occurred in the Prussian Confederation.

This major event, when Zhang Xiaofan, who had not appeared for a long time, appeared in front of everyone again, Valerie found that her sweetheart, who had not shown up for more than 100 days, had a face like a crown of jade, handsome and extraordinary, walking like a peer, without the slightest smell of fireworks, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like she broke her leg.

Except for Valerie, who was suspicious, everyone's attention was not on Zhang Xiaofan, but on the people from the city.

"King's Decree: ...... Men over the age of 14 and under the age of 40 are conscripted and all are subject to military deployment...... For meritorious service, the title of knight will be awarded ......"

The complicated German came out of the priest's mouth, and Zhang Xiaofan only understood two meanings, one was that France and the Prussian Confederation declared war, and the other was that the Prussian Confederation was losing and was about to be beaten to the doorstep.

The important thing to say three times, the commander unfolded a roll of paper, roared loudly at the villagers who gathered around, and after explaining the order, he pulled the only priest in the village, Father August, and began to teach the opportunity in person, while leaving four soldiers, and he himself led the team to continue to the next village.

Just after the commander announced the king's order, another system prompt suddenly appeared in Zhang Xiaofan's mind.

"Please note that the host triggers the side quest: Defend the Country. Drove the French invading army out of the Prussian Confederation. Thirty points will be awarded for success, and thirty points will be deducted for failure. ”

"So little?" Zhang Xiaofan's head is a little big, no more, no less than thirty points, but he doesn't seem to have saved any points in this scroll world, so why should he deduct it.

"It looks like this joining the army is necessary."

A group of villagers in the audience waited until the commander left, and immediately gathered around the priest to ask about the war.

"The damned French are coming again." After sending off the commander, one of the non-commissioned officers took the meatloaf sent by Madame Lazar, took a hard bite, and said: "The king has ordered that every household must send a population to serve, and men are preferred. ”

"Dad, let's come," Zhang Xiaofan pulled Adrian, who wanted to sign up, although he looked handsome, but with a height of about 1.85 meters, plus a bearskin jacket, it still gave people a burly feeling.

"You're still young," Adrian reached out and stroked Zhang Xiaofan's forehead, and said with a smile: "I'm experienced, you can go up next time." ”

"No, although I'm small, but I have a lot of strength," Zhang Xiaofan said and lifted a stone stone next to him with a slap, at least two hundred pounds of stone stone was like grass and trees, and everyone next to him was frightened and retreated.

"Hey, you want to sign up, right," the non-commissioned officer was overjoyed when he saw Zhang Xiaofan's brute strength, and hurriedly helped him complete the formalities, turned back to the retreating crowd, and was angry again: "Don't even think about escaping, there are one hundred and seven households in Jianjiao Village, which means that there must be one hundred and seven people who serve." ”

The non-commissioned officer said, holding Zhang Xiaofan's right hand tightly, refusing to relax, turning his head to Pastor August and complaining, and the priest could only make a promise, and began to persuade many villagers present.

The German emperor fought very well, especially after the establishment of the Holy Roman Empire, and his status in Europe was relatively high. However, only after the vast Holy Roman Empire was divided into hundreds of city-states, countries such as France and even Poland began to carry out frequent border raids.

Among them, the Prussian Confederation had to pay tribute to Poland and other countries for hundreds of years.

Jianjiao Village is located in the snowfield city-state in southwestern Germany, separated from France by a dark forest, and France could not be defeated, but the allied of the snowfield city-state, the country of Lore, was weak and was invaded by France, so it had to ask the academy city-state for help.

The forces of the snowfield city-state could only support their own city defenses, and for the sake of the alliance, they had to recruit soldiers from the civilian population.

The non-commissioned officer took the household registration book given by the priest, and with this thing, he was not afraid of others deserting......

"Adrian Lazar ......"

"Here!"

Zhang Xiaofan was strong and looked thin, but his strength was amazing, Adrian couldn't stop it at all, and the Lazars watched their adopted son go out for them, and they were depressed and uncomfortable, and couldn't help crying.

The non-commissioned officer on the stage saw that the young man next to him was from Lazar's family, which was a good sign, and continued to shout his name, and then men continued to walk out of the crowd, and after a while, the team of more than 100 people was gathered.

At the beginning of spring, when it was supposed to be the season to cultivate the land, they had to go on the expedition, and everyone's anti-war sentiment was very high, but in the face of the state apparatus, they had to obey orders, because the national interests came first.

There were one hundred and seven men in one hundred and seven households, of whom eighty-eight were men and nineteen women. Nine women went on the expedition in place of young girls, five in place of their disabled husbands, and five young girls of prime age who were in the service because of the ill health of their younger brothers or elders.

Among the one hundred and seven people, Zhang Xiaofan basically knows each other, after all, it is a village.

After signing the warrant for service, the non-commissioned officer saw that there was no accident and told everyone that he would leave tomorrow with his three companions, and go to the church to rest.

"Werther, my child," said Madame Lazar, as soon as she returned home, clung to her adopted son in agony.

"It's okay, Mom," Zhang Xiaofan smiled and comforted, finally made Mrs. Lazar stop crying, stretched out his hand, took out a two-handed sword from the room next to him, and danced with a swoop, such strength made Mrs. Lazar suddenly feel some real comfort.

Adrian had been teaching Zhang Xiaofan the way to save his life on the battlefield all night, and when he left, Zhang Xiaofan carried a wide bow and arrow from the room, as well as two pots of arrows, and walked out of the house with high spirits.

In Jianjiao Village, the departure team was still sparse, and only two GIs stood at the door, directing the assembled team to stand in columns. Next to Zhang Xiaofan's tall figure is Valerie's father, Cesar, who is fierce and fierce, but he hides it very secretly.

Valerie and her sister Lucy and her mother came to see them off, the relationship between the two families is good, plus the relationship between Valerie and Zhang Xiaofan, Cesar also looks at Zhang Xiaofan differently.

Because of the high strength of Cesar and Zhang Xiaofan, the two families mainly gave a few advices.

On the other side, there were some sounds of pulling and crying, which kept coming.

Among them, the happiest are a pair of sisters and brothers, the younger brother is Claude, a famous fool in the village, and his IQ is seriously insufficient. And his sister has just turned fifteen, but no one has come to propose, just because her marriage requirement is to ask the man to take care of his foolish brother together.

"Claude, Werther will take care of your sister," Valerie and Claude and her sister Roxanne, seeing that the two siblings were reluctant, walked over to persuade them.

"I don't want to ......" Claude has never left the care of his sister since he was a child, and suddenly separated, no one listened to him, and everyone was even more sad when he saw the scene, and many women and children cried.

Separate is always a matter of course.

As the non-commissioned officer and priest walked out of the church, two GIs began to prepare the queue for departure.

When the team began to set off, the experienced Saisar began to explain to Zhang Xiaofan and other neighbors that the history outside, the focus was on cultivating Zhang Xiaofan, after all, this young man who liked his daughter performed well yesterday and had more strength than himself.

The four Snow Knights who led the group were all members of the Teutonic Order, and their main characteristics were wearing white cloaks, rusty red crosses, and swords. The Teutonic Order's allegiance to the Holy Roman Empire, which was now part of the Prussian Confederation, as well as paying tribute to Poland and accepting the nominal rule of the Vatican, was hierarchically exploitative.

The Prussian Union currently has nineteen city-states and principalities, and Lore and Snow are relatively small principalities that are close to each other, and there are treaties of mutual assistance in attacking and defending the Federation.

In Germany, Martin Luther's Protestant Reformation led to the Teutonic Knights not having their own chassis and could only be wronged to be some mine owners, which led to a decline in military power. So every now and then, France will send people over to bully it.

"Help!"

"Healing!"

"Guard!"

The non-commissioned officer and knight shouted loudly, and kept preaching the three slogans of the Teutonic knight to the one hundred and seven people under him, and Zhang Xiaofan absorbed all the knowledge from them.

In the spring, the roads were muddy, and when one hundred and eleven men arrived at the Order's station, they had walked more than a hundred miles for three days, which not only made some of the people who did not bring enough dry food complain.

Only Zhang Xiaofan and Saisar were the two of them, because of their outstanding physical strength, hunting many times and helping the villagers get food, and were successfully identified by the non-commissioned officer as the captain and deputy captain of more than 100 fellow villagers, Zhang Xiaofan was the main and Saisar was the deputy.

At present, there has been the emergence of gunpowder in Europe, among which the musket team and the artillery team have begun to be formed.

Because Zhang Xiaofan specialized in equipment, he quickly completed the most difficult artillery bombardment, so he took about 50 people in charge of an artillery team, with 50 people under his command and five cannons.

With power, Zhang Xiaofan pulled all the nineteen women in Jianjiao Village into his team, for the sake of the villagers, they can also take more care of them when they go to the battlefield in the future, and put them as logistics as their own transportation support, so that they don't have to go to the battlefield to give these poor women a way to live.

As for the men, there are seven brains active, and they were also collected by Zhang Xiaofan and placed in the team to be called by artillery. When everything was ready, Zhang Xiaofan just took everyone to train for three days, and the team was about to set off.

During the training camp, Zhang Xiaofan focused on cultivating the process, subdividing everyone's work properly, although the amount is large, but it is simple and clear. When the trumpet is blown, everyone just needs to follow the command.

What's more, Zhang Xiaofan firmly remembered the Chinese art of war - 'Ci is not in charge of soldiers'.

Once you start training, take it very seriously. Especially for the strict requirements of time and orders, once there is disobedience, or delay, even if it is a villager, there will be no mercy, the light corporal punishment is running, the heavy is closed in a small black house, these punishments are regardless of men and women.

So after just three days of training, a small artillery unit of fifty people turned into a strict discipline unit. Unexpectedly, as soon as they got out of the barracks, they began to march, only the military band walked at the same pace, and the other teams were scattered.

Zhang Xiaofan took fifty artillery pieces and became the first team of the knights to set off.
