Chapter 148: Pinching?]

The last sentence is too earth-shattering, and the content is too shocking!

The empire has been founded for thousands of years and has gone through many dynasties, but like today's Lance Emperor, he openly promised to seal a little guy who was less than twenty years old...... Duke?!

Although it is the legal system of the Byzantine Empire to confer knighthood with merit, but the merits are big and small, and Char, who is less than twenty years old, has just been named a baron, and the emperor directly promised the title of the next duke in front of everyone...... Such an example...... But while everyone present was shocked, some people pondered and pondered for a while, thinking for a while that since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the emperor could be so favored and trusted...... At a young age, he made great achievements as a white body and was named a duke, but there is indeed such a person.

Lord Duke Tulip!

Although the title is just a fictitious title and cannot be compared with real power, there are often some high lords in the empire who are noble but have no real power, but ...... After all, it is too scary for the emperor to throw out the title of a duke with a single sentence!!

But there are also people who gloat - this Char is afraid that he is going to be unlucky!

The so-called "Benefit"! The emperor threw away the title of duke, but bought Hasting's head! Who was Hasting? The number one general in Odin's army! Since he was born, the Byzantine army can be regarded as having suffered a lot! I don't know how many famous generals, fierce generals, war generals, brave generals, and other guys in the army have fallen into Hasting's hands!

Want to get Hasting's head in exchange for this duke...... Hmph, this kid is just afraid that he will have to ask for his own suffering! Maybe he didn't get Hasting's head, and he gave his head out first!

But others think it a little deeper...... In addition to the duke promised by His Majesty, there is another one: within three years, kill 30,000 Odin, and make him an earl!

The earl, although not as prominent as the duke, once he becomes an earl, he can be regarded as having the qualifications to enter the inner circle of the imperial power class!!

Hastings is difficult to kill, but it takes three years to kill 30,000 Odin...... It seems to be much less difficult. Not to mention...... Hmph, in the army, everyone knows about the indiscriminate killing of innocent people and the merit of leading the army! I just don't know if this Char is the kind of ruthless person.

If he is ruthless, slaughtering the people by arson, and making 30,000 heads in three years, it is not impossible to do it! Even if he is merciful, he does not slaughter the people by arson, and spends money to search for Odin slaves and buy heads...... Seem...... Compared to an earl's title, it's also a good deal.

Everyone thought about it, but under the majesty of the emperor, everyone could only bow down together to answer, the emperor saw that many nobles nodded and promised, the old emperor laughed, turned over and fell backwards, fell into the chair, and immediately snored loudly, drunk and fell asleep...... The Spear Emperor was soon carried down by the attendants, the emperor went, and the people below were suddenly less restrained, and for a while, Char was surrounded one after another, and many people raised their glasses to congratulate Char on getting the emperor's appreciation, those who know, those who don't know, those who are kind, those who are malicious, and Char can't tell too clearly for a while.

Finally, the turtle is still three points sober, he knows that among these people, he is only afraid of a lot of jealous people, he has no experience, if he says something nonsense, in this level of the occasion, maybe he will be attacked by some open guns and hidden swords, he has a wit, holds a few big wine glasses, and frequently drinks cows, but he refuses to say a word.

He pretended to be straightforward, and others were helpless, but a few eagle generals saw Char's style and laughed secretly in their hearts: This kid knows how to hide clumsy.

Sure enough, after Char drank a few glasses, he poured back, pretending to be drunk, and a waiter next to him had already carried him down, and Cato and Sharpa, who were outside the banquet hall, hurriedly came over and took Char back.

This night, everyone camped in the camp outside the hunting ground, although Char was a baron, but after all, the young lord was shallow, and only found a dúlì tent on the periphery of the camp, and the garrison of the guards near the periphery was very close - this time it showed that the relatives and nobles were coming, and the more powerful the person, the closer the tent lived to the emperor's golden horde, and Char ...... He's still far from it.

Although Char was pretending to be drunk, he had really drunk a lot today, and when he returned to the tent, he fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Char heard the sound of the military trumpet, immediately turned over and got up, washed himself with water in the tent at will, and then put on his armor and went out.

Outside, the morning sun was shallow and dewy, the sky was half gray and half white, and most of the whole camp was still in silence, and it was obvious that the nobles had been partying late last night, and most of the people had not yet gotten up.

Char's tent was on the very edge, and he was alarmed by the early morning cāo performance of the Imperial Forest Army next to him, and after he got up, he saw that on the periphery of the camp, a group of Royal Forest Army had already started the early morning cāo performance!

The Imperial Guards were the most important army in the hands of the Imperial Family, and the men in the army were all selected from the standing corps, not only for their outstanding personal qualities, but also for each person's background and net worth.

At this moment, Char's opinion is really extraordinary! This group of royal forest troops out of cāo is really strong and strong -- not to mention anything else, in a prosperous place like dìdū, but in times of peace, it seems that the military discipline is still strict when it comes out of cāo early in the morning -- this alone is not to be underestimated.

Char stood aside and watched the Imperial Forest Army's exit for a while, divided into infantry and cavalry drills, infantry combat is just a line of training, a rehearsal of the formation, and the cavalry out of the cāo, so that Char couldn't help but be excited - he was born in the Thirteenth Corps, naturally has a soft spot for cavalry, seeing these cavalry of the Royal Forest Army out of the cāo, the queue is neat, equestrian jīng liang, rehearsing a few cavalry frontal impact, roundabout the queue, although it is only a drill, but obviously training jīng liang, worthy of a jīng soldier.

It's just that...... Char looked at it for a while, but had a strange feeling.

This Royal Forest Army, it is not wrong that the soldiers are strong and strong, equipped with jīng liang, and the weapons and armor are a grade stronger than the standing corps they encountered, so there is no need to say it, when training, the queue is proficient, and when cāo is playing, it is also full of jīng gods...... Can...... But I always feel that something is missing from this army.

After thinking about it carefully, the turtle faintly figured out a little clue.

Something less, indeed...... Murderous!!

Murderous is something that you can't see or touch, but only those who have experienced it will naturally know it!

Even, in Char's own opinion, he has been in the 13th Cavalry Corps, and he has also seen the cāo performances of the 13th Cavalry Corps, and it seems that the tactics of the horse team's charging and outflanking are not as strict as these Royal Forest Army.

However, when the cavalry of the 13th Cavalry Corps rushed up, that kind of killing spirit naturally rushed to their faces! This is not an illusory thing, but a real temperament tempered from the sea of corpses and blood! It is a kind of outlaw and courage in the bones!

He suddenly remembered a sentence he had heard in the 13th Corps.

"To measure whether a soldier is a veteran or not is not to look at the years he has enlisted in the army! A soldier, even if he has only been in the army for three days, as long as he has experienced a real life-and-death battle, then he is a veteran! And for another person, even if he has been in the army for three years and has practiced every rìcāo, if he has not been on the battlefield, he is still only a raw melon egg. ”

"No wonder. Char muttered to himself in a low voice: "These Royal Forest Soldiers are stationed in Dìdū all year round, and there will be a chance to experience any battles, although they are skilled in acting, they are not murderous, and they are not real jīng soldiers." ”

Then Sharba and Cato had already gotten up and left the tent, both of them were born in the Iron Army, naturally accustomed to the military camp career, after getting up early, they saw that Char was also dressed neatly, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and looked at the camp of the nobles who were still silent as if they were asleep in the distance, and the three of them showed a little disdain.

On the contrary, it was the voice of the Royal Forest Army's cāo performance that made the three of them feel a little closer.

Immediately Char and Sharbacato took out their swords, and began to practice in front of the tent, although they were not in the army, but the morning training was a lesson that was not missing from every rì, and the three of them practiced swordsmanship and killing defense skills for a while, and then Char was fought by Sharba and Cato, and for a while they heard ping-pong, and they were in a ball, and the three of them were sweating happily, so they felt happy, and the smell of wine smoked last night was finally exuded cleanly at this moment.

Although the Spear Emperor had never witnessed the incident of Char and Hu Cong getting up in the camp in the morning to practice martial arts, there were also people below who quietly reported back to the emperor. After the emperor got up, it was already close to noon, and after hearing it, he was relieved in his heart, and only felt that he really didn't see the wrong person, this kid was in dìdū, but he didn't take off his line, but he was a malleable talent.

In the morning, the emperor was drunk and couldn't sleep, everyone was active, Char had been following the emperor yesterday and had no chance to hunt, he was a hunter, it was inevitable that his hands were a little itchy, this morning he simply took Sharba and Cato to ride into the forest farm, half a day, but also harvested.

Char hunted, not only with shè arrows, he showed his means together, jumping up and down in the woods, digging out nests and setting traps, and in one morning, without even firing a few arrows, he got far more prey than the two of Sharba and Cato combined.

In contrast, although Sharba and Cato have also served in the 13th Corps for many years and have been stationed in the wild all year round, their survival skills in the wild are much worse than Char's, an authentic mountain hunter.

The three of them did not have the pretentious nobles next to them, and their demeanor was much happier than yesterday, so they simply galloped at will, chasing prey in the woods.

Just after wandering around in the forest for a long time, Char's eyes were suddenly sharp, and he saw a white shadow flashing in the forest, as fast as lightning! Char immediately shouted: "It's a snow fox!!"

Snow foxes generally only grow in cold places in the northern climate, and their fur is snow-white, which is extremely rare. And with the fact that this animal is cunning and cunning, it will be difficult for even the most powerful hunters to catch. Therefore, the value of snow fox fur in the market is also extremely expensive, and the nobles are also proud to be able to wear snow fox fur!

Although Char knew about the snow fox, he had never hunted such a thing in the wildfire field, and when he saw it at this moment, he couldn't help but see the hunting heart, shouted, and chased after him with his two companions.

He refused to let go of the arrow, for fear that the fox skin would be broken, so he just rode his horse to chase after it, consuming the snow fox's physical strength first. This snow fox was originally also the caretaker of the royal garden, and was captured in the north and stocked here for the royal nobles to hunt and have fun, this kind of free-range animal, originally a little less ambitious than the real wild thing, this xìng has degraded a lot, and was chased by Char and the three of them, but after all, they were gradually chased closer.

"Spread it around!"

Char shouted, Cato and Sharba were both born as cavalrymen, and it is needless to say that the equestrian jīng liang is naturally separated, and the left and right sides are separated at the moment, and they detour from the side.

Char rode a horse and chased down, but the little beast was scurrying in the grass, Char came out in a hurry, and he didn't bring a hunting dog or falcon or the like, at this moment the lion fights the rabbit, powerful but nowhere to go.

In this chase, Char ran slippery, and he didn't know how far he had chased him, shuttled through the woods, and ran for a while, but even the left and right Sharba and Cato were gone. He was not in a hurry, but was inspired to catch this little beast today.

Along the way, he opened his bow and arrows, left and right, not to hurt the fox, but to deter it from escaping on both sides, fortunately, Char brought a bag of ordinary Yanling arrows when he came out, otherwise, the iron spine armor-piercing arrows would be unbearable.

Seeing that the fox in front of him had run with his tongue sticking out and gradually getting slower and slower, Char was overjoyed, and suddenly saw the ground in front of him suddenly going up a hillside, and when the horse chased after him, he saw an open field in front of him, and the surrounding forests spread out to the left and right, but in front of him was a calm lake.

This lake is surrounded by the royal garden, the area is not very large, the radius is only about 100 meters, the lake surface is calm as a mirror, the lake water is turquoise, but it is like a huge jade inlaid in the mountain forest.

The grass on the shore of the lake is green, and although it is the time of winter and the chūn season, there is no sè of decay, but it is full of vitality.

And what surprised Char was that there was actually a person standing on the shore of the lake!

A woman stood by the lake, covered in a snow-white coat. The big hair seemed to be woven with velvet, worn on a woman's body, full of luxury, the woman was facing down, staring at the lake, her long blue hair was scattered, but a gold head ring was put on her forehead, and her skin was like snow, although the big hair was spacious, but it still showed a bit of graceful figure.

Although Char's aesthetic concept is still a little vague at the moment, after going to Fengyue with Ruhr Green, he gradually realized that he was afraid that he was only being tricked by the old guy, and the beauty and ugliness were reversed. It's just that it's hard to change the habit of many years...... At this moment, the woman standing by the lake, standing in the wind, like a goddess in the smoke and waves, if it were any man, at a glance, I was afraid that she would be amazed and moved, but Char saw it, but she was just slightly stunned and didn't care.

Char didn't have time to think about how there could be a woman in this royal garden, but he was thinking about the snow fox, he chased all the way, and a few gold coins had been deducted in his hand, seeing that the snow fox slowed down, he suddenly raised his hand, and a few gold coins were scattered like golden light in the sky. He is on the same head, but his Uncle Char is now wealthy, beating people with gold, a dozen is a large piece, the snow fox can't dodge, and was suddenly hit by two gold coins, and fell to the ground after a roll, Char laughed, rode over, bent down to lift the fox, didn't expect this beast to play dead, seeing Char come and stop the horse, suddenly a turn over and jumped up again, a few steps forward, but ran to the side of the woman by the lake.

The woman was startled, but the snow fox sneered and ran into the woman's arms, revealing only a fluffy head, a pair of slippery eyes staring at Char, and a few wails of "chirp" came out of his mouth.

Char's head was a little big, he turned over and dismounted, strode to the lake, and came to the woman's face.

She looked like she was in her early twenties, two or three years older than Char at most. A pair of eyes as big as autumn water, those eyes were clear, but there was a faint sorrow in them—just these eyes were enough to make people forget the rest of her countenance!

It's not that she was born ugly, her appearance is also first-class according to ordinary people's eyes, but these eyes seem to be full of strange charm, those eyes are big and bright, and they are full of agility! Even though Char's standard of beauty and ugliness is a little blurred at the moment, she has to instinctively stretch out a feeling: I only think that this woman's eyes are really good-looking! Among all the people I have seen in my life, no one's eyes can compare to this woman's eyes so attractive.

"That...... This lady. Char scratched his head and bowed slightly--this gesture made him a little inexplicable! As if this woman's eyes looked at her, and the indescribable nobility of the other person's body, as if with a kind of holiness and nobility, made people unconsciously ashamed of themselves and dare not blaspheme her. A turtle like Char couldn't help but be a little polite when he spoke, and he actually took the initiative to salute, "This...... This fox in your arms is my prey, please return it to me. ”

The woman's eyes stared at Char carefully, her eyes were a little curious, her eyes flickered, and then the curtains drooped, a slender hand pressed on the fox's head, and gently stroked it twice, and the fox's hairy head immediately fell: "This general, you...... What did you just call me?"

"Huh?" Char was stunned, "What do I call you?" Ah, honorable young lady...... That, ma'am?"

The woman looked at Char, and her eyes suddenly gradually showed a smile, her eyes were curved, like two crescent moons, when she smiled, the eyes were gentle and shrouded in her body, even Char couldn't help but feel a little fluttering, her face was red for no reason, and she hesitated for a moment, but she couldn't speak.

"You don't recognize me, this general?"

It is undeniable that this woman's voice is very good, soft and delicate, but there is no bewitching taste, gentle and amiable.

"This ......" Char was a little impatient: "I haven't been here for a long time...... That ......"

He looked at the snow fox in the woman's arms.

"Well, are you newly transferred from the Imperial Forest Army?" The woman looked at Char, thoughtful, and then nodded, she walked over slowly, but crossed Char, and her tone returned to coldness, as if mentioning the "Royal Forest Army", she faintly revealed a bit of indifference, walked past Char's side, and lightly threw a sentence: "It just so happened that my horse ran away, and my servant went to chase the horse, but left me here alone." Send me back. ”

It's easy to say, but it seems to have a flavor that it should be. Char was faintly unhappy in her heart, and looked at the back of this woman...... When this woman walks, her figure is graceful and moving, especially the pair of long legs wrapped in the big canopy, and the curves are looming - unfortunately, these beauties, Char, the turtle, do not know how to appreciate them.

At the moment, he only remembered the snow fox that he had been chasing for a long time, and seeing that this woman had hugged him, he didn't mean to return it at all, and he pointed fingers at him to send her back?

Damn, what is Uncle Ben? Is it your servant?!

Char was angry and snorted, "Hey! Stop!"

With this explosion, the woman was startled, Huo Ran turned around and looked at Char with a frown.

Char strode after him, and said angrily: "You woman is so unreasonable......! I don't talk nonsense with you, the prey will return me!"

After speaking, he stretched out his big hand to grab it, the woman seemed to be stunned, I didn't expect that there were still men in the world who dared to be so powerless to herself, seeing Char's big hand stretched out, she exclaimed, holding the snow fox sideways and trying to dodge, but Char shot, where can she dodge a weak woman? It's just that this dodge is broken...... Char felt her hand grasp in the woman's arms, and as soon as her palms closed, she suddenly felt a lump of plump and soft, soft and full elastic things, and a big lump was held by herself...... This feels...... Char was at a loss in her heart, subconsciously - uh, really, purely a subconscious action.

The turtle's palm also deliberately pinched it twice...... Silent...... In a few seconds...... "Ah!!!!!hh
