Chapter 125: The Great War Is Coming (4)
"You might as well draw your sword and come out and take a look!"
Xiao Yi's tone was so determined, the young soldier was a little undecided, could it be that there was something marked in this short sword, in that case, it would have been a miscalculation if he grabbed it just now and didn't check it in detail, but then he thought about it again Anyway, now that the thing is in his hands, he has a great advantage, and it is really a last resort.

Thinking of it, he raised the short sword with a smirk on his face, and pressed the brake snap of the scabbard to pull the sword out smoothly, and for a while the morning sun hit the silver-white metal sword and reflected a dazzling light, which made people have to squint their eyes, and the young soldier who was the sword bearer bore the brunt.
"Good sword!" Although there was a stinging pain in his eyes, he couldn't help but shout in his heart, the high degree of reflection of a sword body proves that the sword body is forged and polished very smooth, which is one of the indicators that very reflect the craftsmanship level of the craftsman, and it is extremely good to have such a dazzling luminosity, whether it is used for oneself or sold for money.
With this thought, he felt that his eyes were familiar with the sudden change of the spectrum, but when he opened it again, the young soldier was suddenly stunned, because he saw that the shiny blade of the sword, whether it was the tip or the side blade, was a smooth and blunt curve, and this short sword turned out to be an unbladed product!
This situation not only confirms that the ownership of this short sword must be something that Xiao Yi, who understands its characteristics, just gave to children to play with, but also his previous statement that he was worried about the sharp weapon hurting people is also self-defeating, which is a bit embarrassing now!
"Well, now I understand, since this thing should be returned!"
In the face of Xiao Yi's questioning, he had no choice but to play tricks, so he reluctantly threw back the short sword in his hand, reached out and handed the short sword back to Isli, which immediately made the little boy burst into tears and laughed.
"Hmph, it's just a little gadget to coax children to play, who is rare! I'll give you a face today, you're just a foreigner to wander around, where should you go back as soon as possible, as a local, I advise you not to mess around in this city, otherwise it won't be as simple as it is now if you break the rules!"
Although this matter makes people feel a little unhappy, Xiao Yi is a passer-by after all, as long as he helps Vincent solve this matter, he can return with peace of mind, and naturally he is not willing to make trouble. But seeing that what could have come to an end, because the young soldier's unforgiving mouth that wanted to regain face aroused Xiao Yi's emotions again.
"Okay, then you might as well teach me what the rules of this city are, seeing that you seem to be even bigger than the city lord's style, could it be that the rules of this city just can't offend you?!"
"See your ghost, which ear of your ear heard me say this, it's better not to be so open-mouthed when you are young! The city lord here is Lord McLene, the commander of our city defense army, if I hear you talk like this, no one will be able to save you from the crime of beknowing, if it is really like a gathering of things, the kid next to you is also a good person, and he dares to play in the name of Lord Lodivan, the commander of the Western Army, it is really unbelievable!"
Speaking rebuttal words, when the two military bigwigs were mentioned, the young soldier's face showed an expression of admiration and reverence, and the emotion that was originally inferior in front of Xiao Yi became arrogant.
"Hehe, I really don't know who doesn't know who the sky is high and the earth is thick, who are the two you mentioned? That is a heroic figure who leads the army to guard the gate of the country and protect the safety of one side, such a person has an unparalleled sense of responsibility and honor in his heart, and he must be tolerant of people, how can he be convicted because someone is talking behind his back, because such a thing as words and punishment is so powerful that His Majesty the Emperor Vincent of our country cannot do it, is it possible that in your eyes, the two adults are mediocre and violent bastards, will you allow you to slander the order under their rule so much in private!"
"You! I ......"
The young soldier was speechless for a while, he categorically did not expect that the young outsider opposite him would be so sharp-tongued, and he was just borrowing the name of a senior officer to deliberately sing a high profile, he did not expect that the other party could be more up-to-line than himself, and this hat was buttoned as if he was so ill-intentioned and eager to ruin the reputation of the top official.
"I've said good things too, it's your business to listen to it or not! Look at your outfit, you may not know which family of gentlemen was sent here to make a fortune from the dead, just ask you what power an irrelevant person has to discuss the military and politics in vain, I see that you have a suspicious appearance, be careful to be arrested as a spy!"
"Presumptuous, Mr. Xiao is an important guest who came with the envoy of the Overseer sent by the Imperial Military Department, how dare you a little soldier accuse Mr. Xiao's identity!" The two guards around him were the personal guards who followed the king, and they had also received Xiao Yi's favor along the way, how could they tolerate the other party's repeated humiliation.
"Oh, I said, why are you so pretentious! It turns out to be a big man from the military department!" Unexpectedly, after listening to the guard's words, the soldier seemed even more unscrupulous!
"It is because of you incompetent bureaucrats that this front-line battle has been fought like this, and if we give us more support, the front-line soldiers will be able to leave a little less blood, lose a few names, and the people's lives will be better. In my opinion, I should throw you into battle and let those Maynke wolves eat even the bones and dregs, and then you will tell me who should be in charge!"
"You are too presumptuous, report your military registration and name, and I will ask what kind of character raised such a tricky soldier when I look back!" was chopped off and covered with a few faces, and the guard just now did not fight in one place, and directly asked the other party's military rank and name, and gave him a lesson after preparation.
"Okay! Lao Tzu Xing will not change his name or change his surname, Duke is the commander of a group of five teams in the front door of the city guard army, and I am the commander of a group of five teams at the front gate of the city guard, if you are willing to sue, you can go and sue it, anyway, you people are the best at these tricks of stabbing yourself in the back, aren't you! It's better to go to the city lord's mansion or the headquarters of the West Battalion to report it, and who will take care of you when you see it!
Lao Tzu still has military affairs in his body, so I won't grind my teeth here with you, let's go!"
After saying that, he turned around and left with a few of his companions, and the soldiers around him, including some civilians, all looked at Xiao Yi and the others with a look of contempt and disgust at this moment, which made the guards who spoke just now feel uncomfortable, I didn't expect the reputation of the Imperial Military Department to be so bad in this front-line border city, and they who used a fake identity really had a hard time at this moment.
It's just that the group of soldiers called Duke hasn't walked out yet, and they saw a commotion from the crowd of onlookers, and a group of heralds came to the road in front of them, and Duke, who was also in the ranks, they could tell from their attire that these people were from the western defense line, and the rank of the commander of a thousand men in front of them made them and all the soldiers who were watching subconsciously stand and salute, and under the gaze of everyone, this group of heralds came straight to Xiao Yi and stood in front of Xiao Yi and gave a military salute.
"Mr. Xiao, I have sent a message from Lord Marshal Lodivan, President of the Western Front Garrison Corps, please go to the front command headquarters immediately to attend an important combat meeting, and please leave immediately if the situation is urgent!"
Immediately, the surrounding crowd was in an uproar, and Duke and the gang were dumbfounded! )
