Today's dinner was a bit late.

Sheila Sr., Rita, and Little Peter had been sitting at the table for a while.

Natasha had just come out of the upstairs bedroom, and the dress she was wearing was no longer the one she wore during the day.

This dress made of wool thread is very beautiful, slightly tight on the body, white and plump but without fat, and the edge of the chest stretches out a full arc from the armpits.

Originally, her long chestnut curly hair had been combed through the balls, but now it was like a waterfall, and her beautiful white face had a drunken flush, and her whole body exuded the charming charm of a mature beauty.

She walked briskly to the dining room kitchen and helped Rita bring the prepared dinner to the table.

The food prepared tonight was a little different from usual, Surdak brought back some bear ribs from the town of Dodan, and in order to strengthen the muscles and muscles of little Peter and Sheila Sr., the ribs were fried and then simmered in an iron pan for a few hours, making the bear ribs very soft.

Little Peter looked at Natasha expectantly, raising his little face and staring at the pot in her hand.

Natasha walked to the side of old Sheila first and scooped the fattest bear steak for her, old Sheila lowered her eyelids and said in a soft and low voice: "I'm old, I eat too much meat at night, and it's easy to accumulate food at night......"

As he spoke, he trembled in his hands and held the knife in both hands, and cut half of the bear's ribs into Little Peter's plate.

Little Peter let out a low cry.

At this time, Surdak walked into the dining room, and little Peter jumped out of his chair, ran to the door, and threw himself into his arms.

Surdak lifted little Peter high and placed it on his shoulders.

He asked affectionately, "Have you been practicing the basic swordsmanship that Uncle Andrew gave you at home lately?" ”

"I practice every day!" Little Peter hugged Surdak's neck tightly and said affectionately.

Little Peter's eyes were full of joy when he saw Surdak, and he didn't want to part even when he ate dinner.

Old Sheila was not as energetic as before, and after dinner she was a little sleepy, and wanted to take little Peter back to her room to sleep.

Little Peter naturally did not want to go to sleep early, and was entangled by Surdak's side and did not want to leave.

Surdak patted his forehead and said to little Peter, "By the way, I almost forgot to bring you a gift this time." ”

Little Peter had an expectant look on his face, and when he saw Surdak pull out the horn of a huge ice-horned rhinoceros from his magic waist bag, he immediately ran over and curiously touched the rough surface of the horn.

Everyone gathered at the table, and not only little Peter was curious, but Natasha and Rita were also very curious about what this big guy was.

Surdak explained to Natasha, "This is a rhinoceros horn on the top of the head of an adult ice-horned male rhinoceros, which is very rare! Such a rhino horn can be used to craft a rhino horn blade in the city's high-class blacksmith shop. ”

Old Sheila's eyes were always on little Peter, and it was then that her eyes fell on Surdak.

She said to Surdak: "You are stationed on the plane, you usually have to pay more attention to safety, you don't have to come back to see us all the time if you don't have time, now life in Vol Village has changed so much, we live in a warm house, we can basically eat meat for every meal, wear decent clothes, walk around the village, the whole village has to compliment me, this kind of life has never been thought of before, we live very well here." ”

Old Sheila looked at Surdak and asked him, "How are you over there?" ”

Surdak replied: "There is a border town over there, and further north through a canyon is the Monster Forest, and this ice rhinoceros horn is the ...... obtained by hunting the Monsters over there."

He spoke eloquently and introduced the Bailin plane to everyone.

If Sheila hadn't asked, probably no one in the family would have talked about these things.

Natasha and Rita were curious, but they both adhered to their duties as women and never took the initiative to talk to Surdak about official business.

Surdak continued to sit on the sofa with a teacup in his hand, and told Rita, who was full of curiosity about the plane world, about what happened in the Bailin plane, Natasha was next to Surdak, her head resting on his shoulder, and listened quietly.

From time to time, Rita would ask a question, such as how the sky, the earth, the mountains, and the rivers were different from here......

Little Peter lay in Rita's arms and soon fell asleep.

Rita was about to carry little Peter back to his room, and Sheila Sr. dragged her tired body back to the bedroom.

Her bedroom and Little Peter's room were next to each other.

Leaving the restaurant, old Sheila showed a trace of worry on her face, and her eyes fell on the young face of Little Peter, who she had always worried about growing too fast, because she didn't want to age too fast.

But now she's kind of expecting little Peter to grow up soon, because now the village of Wall is changing every day, and so is Surdak.

He had become a baron, had a private army, and was about to marry the daughter of a great man in the province of Bena.

She was a little worried about Little Peter's future......

Although Surdak promised to leave the village of Wall to Little Peter, the changes here are so fast that it is a bit dizzying, and it is not known if Little Peter will be able to manage it in the future......

……

As the sunset burned the western half of the sky over the Thorny Ridge, a long line of troops appeared on the main road outside the town of Dodan.

The army was dressed in fine armor, and at the forefront was a troop of three hundred cavalry, all armed with knightly spears, swords, shields, and crossbows, and they walked in pairs along the road.

Behind the procession was a four-wheeled wagon, a total of thirty four-wheeled wagons, of which seventeen carried five hundred hoplites, seven carried two hundred archers, and the rest of the four-wheeled wagons loaded with the slow cargo, followed by ten catapults.

The Great Swordsman of Chester rode a blue-scaled horse at the front of the group.

A thorny mountain line stretched in front of him, and the rift between the mountains clearly showed a gap, and the Chester Great Swordsman finally saw the town of Dodan on the south side of the canyon.

In the evening, the town of Dodan was full of smoke, but there was no sign of the depression before the arrival of the beast tide.

As the team got closer, the Great Swordsman of Chester found that on the grassy slope outside the town, rows of wooden shelves had been erected, on which the dried hides were actually spread out in patches.

Some of the aborigines are just in the setting sun, packing up these cheap furs on wooden shelves.

In addition to the fur, there are some raw dried meat that is left dry.

When those people saw the Great Swordsman of Chester and his army, they didn't panic much, but just quietly watched the army slowly enter the town, and no one even ran back to the town in advance to make a report.

The streets of the town look very neat, and there is always some prey in the hands of pedestrians who come and go.

A group of mercenary warriors walked along and discussed the day's gains, and their eyes were full of surprise when they saw the Chester Great Swordsman and the mixed reinforcements.

The natives here did not seem to be too afraid of the army, and when they saw the oncoming army, they honestly stood on the side of the street.

A squadron leader looked over to the mercenary warrior, he grabbed the reins of the warhorse, and stopped in front of the mercenary warrior, but before he could ask a question, the mercenary warrior panicked into the alley facing the street, not even wanting to have any conversation with him.

The squadron leader sat on horseback, a little dazed, and for a while he didn't know what was wrong with him.

Seeing some aborigines watching on the sidelines, he had no choice but to ask an aboriginal next to him, "May I ask where is the garrison camp in Dodan Town?" ”

He was worried that the aboriginal could not understand the imperial Chinese, so he deliberately slowed down his speech.

The aboriginal pointed to the end of the long street and replied in a strange tone, "Just north of the town, there's a northern wall there, and it's very conspicuous!" ”

The squadron leader nodded, and asked him again, "How are you doing here, I mean outside the north wall?" ”

"You mean the beast tide?" The aborigines grinned, revealing a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and their bronzed skin shone a little in the twilight.

He pointed to the eaves on both sides of the street, many of which were hung under some otter rabbits, and said a little proudly: "It's pretty good now, bringing a good income to the town, you see that every family has a lot of prey now, but in the past few days, everyone is afraid to go out of the city, and there are more and more demonic beasts gathered outside the city. ”

The squadron leader found himself a little unable to keep up with the aborigine's train of thought, and he hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Wipe out the Demonic Beasts? We are the reinforcements of the local garrison, and the duty of the garrison is to protect the safety of the town, isn't hunting monsters the job of adventure groups and mercenary groups? ”

"Of course, you're right!" The aboriginal smiled and chased after his companion in front of him, ignoring the squadron leader.

When the Great Swordsman of Chester passed by the trading house in the small town, he happened to see some mercenaries trading some Warcraft materials in the trading house, and he also heard that the trading house had a very unpleasant quarrel with Surdak, so he took a second look.

Just as the eyes of a merchant waiter came over, he saw that the Great Swordsman of Chester noticed this, and the smile suddenly froze on his face.

Then he immediately realized that he should keep smiling, but he couldn't squeeze any smile out of his face.

A group of people came out of the town hall, looking like the officials of the town, and the Chester Great Swordsman didn't think much of it, although he felt that the garrison camp was a little too dull.

Lady Luna, the acting mayor of Dodan Town, led a group of people to meet him, walked up to the Chester Swordsman, greeted the Chester Swordsman eagerly, and asked the clerk behind him to lead the team to the garrison camp.

The team brought by the Chester Great Swordsman had more than 1,000 people, and he needed to enter the garrison camp tonight, and he was not interested in socializing with the local officials, so he asked his lieutenant to deal with Lady Luna with a few words, and he rushed to the garrison camp with the team.

The high north wall in the canyon looks like a high wall with countless grooves from the north, but from the south side, there are several zigzag stairs built on the north wall, and in addition to the stairs, there are also hanging platforms for large ordnance such as hanging bed crossbows on the east and west sides of the wall.

Although it was still far from the city walls, the Great Swordsman of Chester could see that the city was almost full of guards.

Andrew stood at the gate of the camp with all the squadron leaders in the garrison camp to greet the Chester swordsman and the reinforcements, and after the Chester swordsman looked around the crowd, he found that Surdak was no longer in the crowd, so he asked a little strangely: "What about Baron Surdak?" ”

Andrew hurriedly straightened up and replied, "Report to the Legion Chief, Lord Surdak just happened to go out on patrol today!" ”

"As a garrison guard, you actually let the chief officer personally run out of the patrol, get out of the way, and clean you up later!" Chester's face sank, and he glared at Andrew fiercely and said.

Andrew didn't expect the Chester Great Swordsman to come early or late, but he rushed over at this time, and hurriedly said with a smile:

"Commander, this is arranged by our regimental commander himself."

As he spoke, he hurriedly led the Great Swordsman of Chester into the garrison camp, which was very clean.

On the east side of the camp is a neat row of stables, where more than 1,000 horses are in the stables, and a group of aboriginal herders are digging forage there.

On the west side of the camp was the garrison quarters, and some of the cavalrymen also stood under the bathing wall to bathe.

The leather and monster heads that had been piled up in front of the small building had all been taken away by Surdak, leaving only some huge skeletons of the black-backed ice-horned rhinoceros in the camp, which looked a little bloody. Behind these skeletons lay a few large iron pots, some of which were still boiling in boiling cauldrons with the remains of fresh meat.

The thick soup in the big iron pot has been boiled white. Flower. The flowers were full of fat, and a lot of cooked meat was placed on a square plate.

However, it seems that the cavalry in the camp have already eaten dinner, and there are only a dozen men busy in the canteen.

Andrew saw that the soldiers in the reinforcement team were attracted by the fragrance wafting from the big iron pot, and quickly thought that they had been marching all day, and that they should not have eaten dinner at this time, so he immediately said:

"By the way, Commander, everyone hasn't had dinner yet!"

Without waiting for the Great Swordsman of Chester to answer, he beckoned a squadron leader behind him and instructed him:

"Neil, you go and ask the kitchen to prepare a dinner for a thousand people, cooked meat with pickled cucumbers, broth and baked wheat cakes, I guess everyone is hungry, let the canteen hurry up."

"Yes!" The squadron leader hurriedly ran to the big iron pot, communicated with the guy over there, and immediately ran back again.

Squadron Leader Neil reported to Andrew: "Captain Andrew, the canteen said that you can eat immediately, and the canteen is just preparing breakfast, you can let the brother troops eat first, and then continue to prepare in the canteen." ”

"Commander, do you want everyone to have a hot dinner first, the accommodation here in the camp is not enough for the time being, I will immediately send someone to set up a marching tent on the playground, and build a dormitory tomorrow."

The Chester Great Swordsman nodded slightly, and walked to the cafeteria under the leadership of Andrew.

The cavalry dismounted, a group of aboriginal horsemen ran over and led the horses away familiarly, and the infantry warriors and archers jumped out of the carriages and lined up in the courtyard of the garrison camp, following behind the Chester swordsman.

I saw several cavalrymen wearing aprons, using meat cutting knives to cut large pieces of boiled meat on the board, and seeing a neat row of mane beast heads next to the meat case, Chester swordsman knew that these pieces of meat on the meat case were all Warcraft ingredients, seeing that they were skillful in cutting, obviously not only one or two, but before the beast tide came, this side was already luxurious enough to eat Warcraft meat.

"Now the monsters are starting to storm the walls?" The Archswordsman of Chester asked with concern.

Andrew just took a square plate from the dining rack, eagerly led the Chester Great Swordsman to the front, and quickly shook his head and said, "Although the canyon is crowded with demonic beasts at present, these demonic beasts have not yet stormed the city wall for the time being. ”

The cavalry squadron leaders who followed Andrew began to guide the cavalry of the reinforcement team to receive the meal plates, line up to receive the meal, and enter the dining area in an orderly manner.

Seeing that even the meals were so orderly here, the Great Swordsman of Chester asked Andrew curiously, "This is how you usually eat?" ”

Andrew hurriedly replied with a smile: "It's more efficient this way." ”
