Chapter XXVII

"What's the matter? Why is General Saron delayed here? Why don't you hurry up to the capital saint!" Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Subordinates, see Commander Simon!" The little leader saw that the person who came was the commander of the guards beside the king, and he was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground and saluted.

"I'd like to come in. "Seeing that his acquaintance Salon, he was relieved. "This kid said he didn't know the sign of our Vida Army, and he didn't let us in. ”

"Commander Simon, long time no see. The boy raised his military hat and greeted Simon naturally.

"Liang Feng, what are you doing? Commander Simon is our superior, and he doesn't hurry up and salute. Seeing Liang Feng like this, Saron hurriedly corrected him.

"No need, Liang Feng and I are old acquaintances, so I don't need these false courtesies. Simon stopped Saron who was about to get angry and motioned for him not to be restrained.

"I guess the two of you must have been delayed on the road, and it was just right to meet you this time, so why don't you get on the horse and follow me into the palace to face the saint. As he spoke, two people next to him automatically dismounted to make room.

I haven't seen him for five years, and Simon is a lot more mature than before.

"Come, take the guard of Simon and his subordinates for twenty scepters, and transfer them to other places to report on their work. How can a man who can't even remember the emblem of our army hand over the gateway to Kyoto to them?"

"Yes. ”

After giving the order, the three of them quickly whipped their horses and galloped away in the direction of the palace.

Or in the royal gardens of the royal palace. An old man who was nearly half a hundred years old was carefully reading a letter, on which was the battle report handed over by the border guard, and the old man nodded with satisfaction.

There were several people and a young man standing next to him, waiting for the old man to speak.

Liang Feng saw that King Leo was concentrating on reading the battle report, and looked around in his spare time.

Not to mention, at this time, the New Year is approaching, and the weather is naturally freezing. Just the day before Liang Feng and the others came back, there was a heavy snowfall around Apocalypse City, and the people said that it was a good year. However, at this time, the imperial garden is full of flowers, especially plum blossoms.

Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Liang Feng couldn't help but recall the scene from five years ago. The scene of his first meeting with King Léo Merlin of Belente, when he was received by a king who had just ascended to the throne and was no longer young but in high spirits. Five years have passed, and the boy who once didn't know anything has grown up, and when he returns here, he is still the same king who received him, but the years have also left traces on him, and his temples are slightly white into his twilight years.

"Good!" said King Leo, relieved after reading the letter. "This time, in the face of the barbarian onslaught, Viddaburg not only relied on the strong walls to defend the city. He also led a squad to sneak attack from the middle lane, breaking the meeting between the barbarian vanguard army and the Chinese army, so that they could not care about each other and fled in embarrassment. Good strategy, Huo Qian's old guy is really getting older and better. ”

"Your Majesty is sage, and the marshal is wise. Seeing the king's dragon face and great joy, the ministers echoed for a while.

"Liang Feng. Seeing that Liang Feng was silent and did not echo, King Belente couldn't help but feel strange. "Why are you silent? But I've heard that you've been shining this time, and I've heard that you've dragged the barbarian vanguard for two weeks to get to the city, and you've had plenty of time for the troops to fight back, but the truth?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, this time it's really thanks to Liang Feng's strategy. Without waiting for Liang Feng to reply, Saron rushed out to say. "Your Majesty, you must not have thought that those barbarians were suffering from some small pits, and it was really laughable to watch them beat their chests. ”

"Oh, is it what Qice can do? can make those tall barbarians powerless?" Seeing Saron's expression of holding back a smile, King Leo became more and more curious.

"Your Majesty, Captain Liang Feng suggested to us at that time. The barbarians, because of the cold and long weather this winter, will surely attack us early, so they advised us to dig a pit three feet in diameter and one foot deep in the open ground in front of Viddaburg. At first, we listened to Liang Feng's opinion and thought that this was a pure waste of the soldiers' physical strength. But General Huo Qian eliminated all the differences, so we dug a thousand small pits in front of Vidaburg. And guess what? The barbarians couldn't get their equipment and supplies, and they couldn't find a suitable place to set up a marching tent, and we took the opportunity to fight them out, defeating them three times in a row. Not only did they lose their armor after killing, but they also laid the groundwork for victory in the subsequent battle. Saron began to explain the cause and effect of the battle.

Then, General Huo took another risky move, and the heavenly soldiers descended from the sky, interrupting the barbarians' meeting before and after the division in one fell swoop, so that they could not take care of each other. In the end, we had to drive them away, so we won this battle. Moreover, in the later war of annihilation, Liang Feng's team of 500 people was ordered to raid the rear camp of the barbarian army and burned their grain and grass in one fell swoop. General Huo also said afterwards that Liang Feng was the first contributor to the victory of this battle, and his contribution was indispensable!"

"Well, it's really clever. But it is precisely this small detail that makes the barbarians make frequent mistakes, thus foreshadowing the victory. I agree with the old general's statement that Liang Feng is indeed the key to the victory of this battle, and his contribution is indispensable. King Leo was also happy, nodding with a smile, obviously very satisfied after hearing the news.

"Liang Feng, I remember that you should be seventeen years old this year, right?" Leo beckoned, motioning for Liang Feng, who had been waiting in the distance, to come to his side.

"Your Majesty, this year is exactly seventeen. Liang Feng hurriedly came to the front of His Majesty the King and saluted.

"Hmm. King Leo stared at Liang Feng for a few seconds, as if he was looking. Feeling the king's gaze, Liang Feng was still as calm as ever.

"It's not easy for a seventeen-year-old child to have such courage and courage. It is rare to have such a state of mind for the establishment of such a meritorious service for the country and the benefit of the three armed forces, and not to be coquettish or arrogant. I remember that in the early days of my succession, you made you a trainee knight because of your meritorious service in saving the princess. Actually, before you came back, I wanted to straighten you out, but after meeting you today, my mind changed. I have decided to make you a viscount and eat 300 quintals. First, it is to commend you for your contributions to the country, and secondly, I have other arrangements. Now that the country is in ruins, it is also the time to employ people, I hope that you can continue to guard against arrogance and rashness, contribute to the country, and live up to my expectations, so you can go to the military headquarters and wait for the appointment letter. ”

Somehow, intentionally or unintentionally, when King Leo said the last sentence, the syllables raised a lot.
