The road from Stormwind to Winterfell isn't usually deserted, but it's definitely not as busy as it is now.

Two days after their departure, Gervais and his team were already in front of and behind a number of other lords' and minor nobles.

Although Gervais is not familiar with these lords, because of Pat's little fat man, Gervais is still a little familiar with these people under Pat's introduction.

There were nine minor nobles in their group, including Pat, all of whom were lords of barons, but only one viscount, Gervais, who marched slowly with their own ranks during the day, and at night gathered together to offer all kinds of delicacies and delicacies they had brought, and to eat and drink together.

To be honest, Gervais hadn't had much contact with these lords and minor nobles before, and he really didn't expect that the 'mood' of the life of these noble lords could be so high.

For example, after nightfall tonight, when all the teams had set up camp, the nine little nobles gathered together to prepare for dinner.

Gervais originally thought that everyone would just eat with a clean carpet on the floor, and then sit on the ground, have a picnic in the wilderness under the starlight, drink a little wine and drag racing.

However, what happened next made Gervais suffer a lot of impact.

It's the baron named Cod, don't look at other people's teams in tatters, but the pursuit of quality of life can definitely make Gervais shout: Big brother!

When the dinner was about to begin, Cod brought a long table with more than a dozen serfs, which was the luxurious and elegant dining table of the castle restaurant, and the candlesticks and chairs were all complete, and the ten people in the group sat down with Gervais without being crowded at all.

"Brother, are you serious? You still carry such a large long table with you when you come out to fight, no wonder I just saw a carriage in your team covered with a huge tarpaulin, I thought what war materials were! ”

The baron named Cod set the first example, and several other barons were not far behind, showing off the 'treasures' they had brought, showing how serious they were about life.

First, a baron gave an explanation to his subordinates, and within two minutes, the subordinate brought seven or eight pretty and lovely maids, who had beautiful faces and silk clothes.

After a while, another group of men and women arrived, the men were not very distinctive, but they were neatly dressed and holding some musical instruments, but the women were dressed in tulle, and their figures were surging, and they began to dance as the music sounded, which suddenly made Gervais feel like he was at a nobleman's banquet.

"So this is war!"

This completely subverted Gervais's previous definition of war, and he thought that this way to the battlefield must be dusty, everyone is nervous, and the atmosphere of slaughter is terrifying, but it has only been two days since the journey, and these little nobles are on the waves.

It's a shame to say that Gervais didn't have such a high consciousness at all when he came this time, and the little maid Anna was left in the castle by him, and Vivien was also left in the castle by him.

The venue, the servants, and the beauty are all prepared, and the next thing is the food.

There was no need for Gervais to worry about this, these little nobles had already prepared, and within a few minutes, the cooks belonging to different nobles began to cook food on the spot, and in a short time, all kinds of freshly cooked delicacies were delivered.

"Haha! Let's eat! Let's eat! It's rare to get together all year round, and everyone won't get drunk tonight! ”

The baron named Cod, although the serf soldiers he brought with him looked very stumbling, but the Baron de himself was indeed very open-minded, just from the three beautifully shaped gold candlesticks on the long table, and the silver cutlery on the table.

"Haha, everyone won't get drunk tonight! I've brought with me several kegs of good beer, all of which I bought from Winterfell some time ago! ”

When the other lord heard what Ccord said, he immediately chimed in, and soon several maids began to pour wine for everyone with flasks of beer.

"For the Southern Expedition! Cheers! ”

When everyone's wine glasses were filled, with a shout, everyone raised their silver glasses and slammed them together, and suddenly the long table was overflowing with hops, and the delicacies were fragrant.

Although the manipulation of these nobles made Gervais a little dumbfounded, but the atmosphere of everyone was harmonious, and Gervais did not act alone, raised the wine glass and touched it with a few people, and then did not dislike the bad taste of beer, and drank all the wine in the silver cup in one gulp.

As everyone drank and ate, the atmosphere on the long table became more and more enthusiastic, and this dinner was eaten until the early hours of the morning.

Gervais did not eat this meal in vain, and at the end of the dinner, he took out a jug of wine that he had prepared long ago and distributed it to everyone.

It's not that Gervais was reluctant to take it out at first, but there was already beer on the long table at that time, and in order to prevent the beer from being able to eat after drinking the wine, Gervais took the wine to end up tonight's dinner.

These little nobles also participated in Alice's banquet at the beginning, and even went to the East End Plaza to buy wine, but wine is such a delicious thing that only one person can buy five pots, and they have already drunk it.

When they saw Gervais bring out the wine, everyone immediately watched quietly as the maid filled it for them, and then slowly drank it like a rarity, completely devoid of the previous cow drinking beer.

When the dinner was over, the baron who had brought the singer ran to Gervais's side with a grin, and whispered if Gervais needed to pick one to warm the bed, lest the night be empty.

Gervais glanced at the choppy singers, and finally Gervais sternly refused.

Just kidding, these singers have long been your people, and Master Ben doesn't have the habit of using a bus for private use, and Master Ben wants to use only his own private car.

For the next two days, knowing that there was still wine in stock in Gervais's carriage, these little nobles were most active in meeting for dinner every night.

The team stopped, and before their subordinates set up camp, they couldn't wait to come to the vicinity of Gervais's camp, and prepared the long table of food early, waiting for Gervais to start the carnival together.

In this way, what Gervais had thought of as a boring and boring life on the road changed its appearance, and it ended in this cheerful drinking party once a day.

……

On the evening of the fourth day after Gervais set out from Stormwind, a group of thousands of people finally arrived on the outskirts of Winterfell.

The outskirts of Winterfell had changed by now, and the empty fields had been replaced by tents of different colors, which were covered with colorful flags of different patterns and colors for each lord.

Gervais and the others were not the first, as there were already thousands of troops gathered on the outskirts of Winterfell, all of whom were Alice's vassals.

The camp of the suburban garrison did not place a fence on the perimeter, but set up checkpoints at the junctions that came from all directions.

These levels are not designed to defend against enemies, but are dedicated to hosting and guiding teams like Gervais and them.

"Lord Gervais! Welcome to your arrival! ”

Because he was not in a hurry, Gervais simply sent behind Pat and the others to register.

When he revealed his identity, the receiving guard was immediately startled, and without hesitation, he gave a military salute to Gervais, and then respectfully greeted Gervais.

"Well, where is Alice now?"

Gervais nodded kindly and asked the soldier.

"My lord, the Earl should still be in the castle, but the villain is not sure."

The guard vigorously looked at the flag held by the soldier behind Gervais, trying to memorize the pattern of the flag, so that he would not recognize Gervais's team in the future.

"Yes! Good! ”

Gervais replied, this is just an ordinary guard, and it is normal not to know Alice's movements.

"Your Excellency, you've already registered! You come with the little one now, and the little one will take you to the area where you are stationed! ”

In addition to identifying the identity of the visitor, the function of the checkpoint registration is to record the number of soldiers brought by the minor nobles after receiving the conscription order, as well as the condition of weapons and equipment.

When the time comes, whoever is sneaking and playing tricks and slipping is fishing, and who brings elite soldiers and strong generals to perform outstandingly, the Earl will be able to see at a glance.

Since the guard recognized Gervais's identity, he didn't dare to delay much, quickly counted the number of Gervais's team, and didn't even dare to count the weapons and equipment, and then led Gervais to camp diligently!
