Chapter 10: The Stray Wild Dog

If you don't consider the source of raw materials, the hodgepodge cooked by the gray goblin actually tastes good. As long as you survive the initial psychological pressure, you can still eat a full stomach. The soldiers retreated from the front line until now, and they really ate a hot meal, and it was naturally impossible to be as picky as the girls at this time.

Of course, this statement is somewhat inappropriate, at least Palanti also served a bowl with everyone and devoured it with his eyes closed. Although he vomited half of it halfway, he gritted his teeth and persevered until the end and licked the bowl clean. Looking at her iron-blue face, El wisely swallowed back the words of persuasion.

"There's actually ......food on the wagon," El sighed as he put down his bowl and said to the soldiers around him, "but you have to keep it just in case." The refugees do not have enough food to support the winter. I listened to the nobles in the morning meeting, and it was basically impossible for us to be rescued. ”

The soldiers sitting around him were all surviving junior officers, so naturally there was no need to hide this kind of thing from them. While these crude people are not expected to make any constructive suggestions, they should at least understand the real situation.

"There's no way to go on like this, my lord. When winter comes, we won't even be able to eat the bark of these grass roots. Timmy's mind is nimble and he quickly figured out the crux of the matter.

"Our north is a newly developed territory, so it's vast and sparsely populated, and when we get to the south, where can we squeeze with so many people?" Ahmed shook his head and said, "I'm not very optimistic about Ms. Lanstadt's plan. ”

"The ancestors of the White Lion and the Wild Boar family have followed their ancestors to open up the north, and although the relationship has gradually weakened, they will never die without help. Palanti covered her mouth and retched a few times, and interjected in a low voice: "Even if the Timberwolves and the White Lion have had old grudges over the years, Miss Tiana was treated with the courtesy of the lord when she came to Isttalen......"

"If she had been an unarmed beggar, I'm afraid it would have been a different situation. El said disapprovingly, only he knew that Tiana's identity was probably a bit of a trick, but there was no need to say such a thing.

"The son of the timberwolf led the people of the white lion to the boar lord, and the four great knights who followed the ancestor fell here three hundred years later, and I don't know how much inspiration it will bring to the bard. Ahmed shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Are you embarrassed to say? Now that the exiles are close to six thousand of us, you all put your hopes on a little girl? Let you drink some miscellaneous soup and make a sad face, but they haven't rested for two days and two nights!" Ahmed's half-joking teasing made El couldn't help but be angry, and glared at everyone fiercely. (For the latest chapter reading, please visit)

"Do you lose face after losing a battle? Don't forget that we are soldiers! We should take this responsibility! Although Tiana is in charge of the overall situation now, she is still a girl after all, and there are some problems that we men have to stand up to solve!"

El reprimanded him harshly, and the soldiers around him couldn't hold their heads up. Everyone's faces were red and black, and they wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.

"Don't take that bullshit meeting for granted, the greatest credit is that they were able to organize the exiles into an orderly collective. Look at the people who are the representatives? merchants, nobles, mercenaries...... If we don't stand up, who will protect the women and children?" said El with some emotion.

"General, we actually understand these truths. Timmy reluctantly spread his hands and said, "But we only know how to fight, and nothing else." You see Palanti still doesn't even wear a skirt......"

Then he received a sword scabbard on the door of his head, and paid the price for his cheapness.

"I don't need a dress!" Palanti snorted coldly, she withdrew her sword and looked at El and said, "General, we are professional soldiers, we only know how to fight, and we only have brute strength on our bodies. If you have any ideas, we will follow you, and I will support you unconditionally no matter what. ”

El looked around and couldn't help but roll his eyes when he noticed that the other soldiers basically showed this meaning on their faces. Although he didn't expect these muscular men in the first place, he still wanted to hear everyone's opinions with a fluke mentality, and now it seems that he is really naΓ―ve.

In front of Tiana, he always felt that his education level was not high, and he would inevitably be a little ashamed of himself. But in front of these ordinary people, he actually regained his sense of superiority in IQ, and the more he thought about it, the more pathetic he felt.

El suddenly found that he had been hanging out with the big guys for too long, and he had become estranged from the world of ordinary people. In this era, knowledge was still the wealth of the aristocracy, and ordinary people were mediocre and ignorant all their lives. Even in a large city like Istalen, with its public colleges, the level of education of the average person is no more than that.

As the head captain of the Mountain Hunters' Brigade, Ahmed was a general who grew up in the same era as the three-headed dog, and also had a noble status, but he was a paranoid superstitious person, believing in everything from god sacrifices to fortune tellers.

Patanti, who has the lineage of the White Lion family, grew up in the army, and although he has studied books, he has never attended college. I don't know what kind of mentality Prologis had to educate his daughter, so much so that she has never worn a skirt until now.

Timmy, an officer who was temporarily promoted from among the black knights, although he was more clever and knew how to read words and feelings, he was actually only a farmer's son, and he knew less than a hundred words combined.

Compared to them, El had to be grateful to his adoptive father, who had taught himself a skill despite the fact that the old man didn't seem very reliable. He didn't think that the old man's belly was so powerful before, but when he arrived in the big city, he found that he was actually an all-rounder who could be regarded as a general, or it would not be his turn to mix in the position of general.

"Actually, I have a not-so-mature idea...... El hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Do you remember that Siciali thieves?"

The warriors who originally belonged to the Black Knight clan suddenly showed a look of thought, while the other soldiers who joined later were still a little unclear.

"General, do you want to fight the thieves?" Timmy, who had the most flexible eyes, blurted out his eyes subconsciously.

"I just had some ideas. El took out an arrow from his back and gestured it on the ground: "You think, we have such a big piece of fat, sooner or later it will attract the coveting of the vicious dogs." Those robbers must have their own lair, and as long as we fight back, we can always find a suitable place to stay as a temporary foothold......"

"It's a viable approach. Ahmed nodded, but his face was still serious: "It's not difficult to snatch the robber's lair, but I'm afraid that as soon as we enter, the tax collector of the local lord will be able to find us." Those bastards don't dare to clean up the bandits themselves, but they are not soft at all when it comes to bullying honest people. ”

"Are we honest people?" El asked curiously.

Ahmed thought for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

"We used to be warriors of Istalen, notice that I said once. El looked up and said to the soldiers beside him, "But whether you want to admit it or not, now we are a pack of wild dogs, and we must not only know it in our own hearts, but also let the whole world know about it." Whoever dares to provoke, we will open our mouths and bite back! Remember the three generals of Istalen? Anderson, Shet, and Pross, who have been watchdogs for a whole decade, and now it's our turn. ”

Hearing El's mention of the three-headed dog, the warriors suddenly smiled knowingly. The style of those generals is still fresh in their minds.

If you think about it, the current situation is strikingly similar to the history of the past. Ten years ago, when Caesar was assassinated and Leonard was seriously injured and hidden, the three of Pross took the young Antonio to fight thousands of miles to return to Istalen, and then faithfully assisted the young lord in his growth. In the face of the covetousness of the southern lords, the three of them abandoned the so-called aristocratic dignity, and they wanted to win by any means, no matter who dared to reach out to Isttalen, they would pounce on it and bite off a piece of meat, so they were called "three-headed dogs" by outsiders.

"I'm afraid Lady Lanstadt won't agree with you, for it would make her very passive if we acted rashly. Ahmed was cautious, not against El's plan, but he felt it was too risky.

"Don't worry, we'll get to a good point. El wasn't worried about that at all, the wanted Miss Dancing Serpent wasn't a good person.

Just as he was secretly slandering in his heart, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in his ears. El turned around and saw a mercenary riding towards him.

"General El, Lady Lanstadt told you to come over immediately! The lord of the south has sent an emissary to contact us, and Miss Lanstadt is negotiating with them!"

The mercenary galloped all the way, and before he could dismount, he pulled his neck and shouted loudly. Looking at his anxious appearance, it doesn't seem to be fake, it seems to be a little unspeakable.

"Negotiations, why do we negotiate, what do we use to negotiate with others?" El asked curiously.

"Oh, my lord, where do I know this? "I saw them enter the tent," said the mercenary, "and in a few moments Lady Lanstadt whispered in my ear by magic, telling me to come to you at once." I didn't dare to waste my time when I didn't hear her tone was right!"

"Look, that means it's not good. Although Tiana didn't say anything about it, with the tacit understanding between him and the girl, he could guess a lot of things just by this attitude.

He thought for a moment, turned back to Ahmed and whispered, "Get ready, brothers, we may be going to bite." (Go to read OM) (Jiangsu Net)
