Chapter 185: The Big Man Who Greets
On one side of the Mordmen there are two towers, where about a battalion of troops are stationed, and judging by their bright armor uniforms, they are quite well equipped. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
When José and the others approached, a group of soldiers happened to pass by, and José noticed that these guys were tall and burly, and at first glance they were powerful guys, presumably the quality of the army should not be low.
However, to José's surprise, these guys were wearing the military uniforms of the Central Military System. As if seeing Jose's doubts, Gould on the side glanced at the central army and said with some emotion:
"The imperial capital's guard force is divided into three layers, the outermost layer is the central army stationed outside the city, the second layer is responsible for the security of the city and the standing tasks are the soldiers in the security station, and the innermost layer is the imperial forest army responsible for the security of the palace.
These guys are the regular Central Army in charge of defense and patrols, and defending towers is a relatively important position, and those guys at the police station can't do this kind of thing. Most of these central armies were drawn from elite troops from various places, and they could be regarded as the backbone of the defense of the imperial capital. ”
When Joseph heard him say this, he raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but smile and said to Gould: "Fatty, speaking of which, you are also from the Central Army, right?
Gould pursed his mouth and said with some disapproval: "How can you feel, when you came out, Lao Tzu was still a general, and now he is a civilian when he comes back, where do you feel anything?"
Despite what the fat man said, his eyes unconsciously looked at the soldiers, and he looked quite emotional. When Joseph saw him like this, he didn't break it, but smiled slightly and looked behind Maude's door.
When the group passed through the Modmen, because there was the fat man in front of them, and Su Ya's status was noble. Not only did he not go through any interrogation, but he was respectfully allowed to leave by the generals of the Central Army in charge of defense.
After passing through the Modgate, Su Ya and the others passed through a vast tower bridge, from which they could enter the interior of this huge capital. In fact, this bridge is also specially passed by aristocratic families, after all, in the country of the Bright Empire, aristocratic politics is almost monopolized in all fields, and aristocratic civilization has almost infiltrated into the politics of this empire.
Perry and the Fat Police Station officers walked at the front, Suya and Jose and others walked behind, and on the side were the police officers and personal soldiers of the squad. Seeing that this was about to enter this majestic capital, Joseph felt a little proud in his heart: Gilliat, the capital of this empire is in front of him!
Perry, who was walking at the forefront at this moment, found from a distance that there was already a group of people standing on the other side of the bridge, as if they were waiting for them, presumably the palace attendants sent by His Majesty the Emperor to greet Su Ya.
The knight looked at it carefully, and when he saw a middle-aged nobleman led by the team, his expression was slightly surprised: "...... Father?!"
At this time, Qiao Se, who was walking behind the team, also spotted the group of people on the other side of the bridge, he raised his eyebrows, looked at Su Ya and asked, "Why do these people seem to be waiting for us, are they sent by His Majesty the Emperor?"
Su Ya squinted her eyes, obviously also saw the group of people standing opposite, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly: "Yes, when the foreign minister enters the capital, according to the tradition of the imperial royal family, His Majesty will not personally receive it that day." The people in front of me should be some palace attendants or something, but I didn't expect that such a big man would also come to greet me, hmph, it's a bit unexpected!"
"Big shot?" Qiao Se was stunned for a moment, and sure enough, he saw that in the group of people in front of him, the leader was a middle-aged nobleman in a gorgeous costume, judging from his costume and demeanor, it was obviously different from the few respectful court attendants beside him.
"Who is this person?"
"The Patriarch of the Norman Family, the Minister of War of the Empire, the Norman Duke!" Su Ya said with a calm face.
José was stunned for a moment, and blurted out with some surprise: "Duke Norman...... Isn't he the old man of Perry's cold-faced man?"
"Oh, you've inquired about these things clearly, I'm afraid the fat man next to you told you, right?"
Su Ya smiled slightly, but her eyes had already fallen on the Norman Duke opposite, and a trace of doubt flashed between her eyebrows: Why is this guy coming to greet me, this Emperor His Majesty is getting more and more incomprehensible.
Qiao Se naturally saw Su Ya's expression, so he snorted and didn't say anything more.
Perry had already reached the other side at this moment, and when he saw that it was indeed the Norman Duke and a few court attendants, he jumped off his horse and walked towards him.
“...... Father!" Perry walked up to the Norman Duke, looking a little excited, but he didn't show much emotion. He just looked at his father, didn't make too many movements, but his body couldn't help but straighten, and finally whispered, "I'm back......"
Norman saw that although Perry was dusty, there was no fatigue between his eyebrows, and he raised his hand with a bit of ability and courage, so he couldn't help but nod and looked at him with satisfaction:
"Yes, it's really not like the one before, and your temper has been sharpened a lot, and it's not in vain that I sent you to the northwest for more than a year!"
The court attendants on the side saw these two men, but they didn't look like a father and son who hadn't seen each other for a year, this Norman family was really quite resolute, no wonder the Norman Duke looked calm and majestic all day long.
After the Norman Duke said this, his eyes looked behind Perry again, and Perry turned around and whispered, "Duke Casa is at the back of the line......"
Norman nodded, took a few steps forward, and sure enough, he saw Suya riding a war horse, coming side by side with a young man.
"Lord Duke Norman, I didn't expect Your Majesty to send you, but Su Ya made you wait for a long time. Su Ya got off the war horse, with a little smile on her face, strode forward, bowed slightly, and made a noble salute.
"Duke Casa is polite, Your Majesty has ordered me to wait for you here, Norman, and I naturally don't dare to slack off. Besides, Duke Casa has been fighting in Moxi for more than a year, repelling foreign enemies for the empire and ensuring the stability of the western frontier of our empire, and this kind of credit is naturally admired by my Normans!"
Norman smiled slightly, his expression was quite sincere, and he didn't see any arrogance at all, he was much older than Suya next year, but he spoke as if he was talking to a colleague.
However, Su Ya had a straight face and said lightly: "Duke Norman's words are too famous, and Su Ya, as a soldier of the empire, should naturally share the worries of the empire." If you have a duty in your body, but you only want to compete for power and profit, and don't contribute to the empire, won't this become a moth of the empire?"
When Norman heard Su Ya say this, his face did not change at all, he just smiled and said: "Duke Casa is right, I, Norman, also hate such useless people the most in my life!"
Qiao Se on the side heard him say this, and suddenly couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Sure enough, they are all old foxes who have been crawling in the officialdom for a long time, and they obviously heard that Su Ya was deliberately mocking themselves, but they can still be as calm as others, but they are also quite a bit of a city. It's just that this guy is really Perry's father of the cold-faced man, why doesn't his personality look like it at all?
Norman exchanged a few words with Suya, and then his eyes fell on Joseph on the side, and he just glanced at him, and then said with a deep gaze:
"I don't know about this gentleman next to you, but the mage Joseph who killed the head of the Macedonian enemy?" (To be continued.) )
