Chapter 719: Autumn Hunting

,

It is the so-called spring and autumn hunting. **

In other words, spring is the season for those dead and plagued students to play with their pens, take the top exam, and become officials.

Of course, there is no such rule here in Lorraine, but the children who have been hiding under the covers for the winter will also put on their most beautiful clothes and rush out of the house.

In spring, the earth recovers, everything springs, and men and women with normal endocrine secretions feel like a kitten scratching in their hearts.

At this time, it is most suitable for chanting a poem, watching a play, having a picnic, committing adultery or something.

As the so-called plan of the year lies in spring, the children who want to make some lives should seize the time at this time.

In autumn, it is hunting season.

Then it's time for the soldiers and ruffians to go out and play hooligans and put on a show of prestige.

This autumn is the harvest season. At this time, it was the fat horse and the strong, and everyone just came out to take a good walk.

Moreover, in this autumn, all the animals are desperately storing their food, and they are all round. Running slowly is not only easy to catch, but also fat.

What's more, all the fruits in autumn are grown, and it is extremely convenient to replenish them on the spot. That's why there is this autumn hunting.

This is a national system, and of course, it does not belong to the poor.

From the king of a country to the officials and wealthy businessmen of a county and a county, they will organize to participate in the autumn hunt at this time.

Whether it is a noble gentleman or a lady or a lady, at this time, they all have to change into special hunting clothes, ride horses and cross bows, go to the prairie or the mountains and forests, let dogs run horses, and hunt some wild beasts.

To put it simply, it is a national fitness activity in which the aristocracy participates.

In the autumn hunt, rewards are often set up, or some competitions are organized, and if it is officially sponsored, the good ones even have the opportunity to be promoted.

In this era of lack of entertainment, ordinary people go to bed as soon as it gets dark, and the nobles have banquets from time to time, but eating and drinking, engaging in extramarital affairs, and having too much fun is just that.

So the autumn hunt has become an annual event for the nobles, and they will even prepare for the autumn hunt for more than half a year, and it is also a place for the nobles to compete with each other to show off, especially young people, who have the opportunity to show their muscles in front of the ladies and ladies.

Autumn hunting has become an excellent time for an old man to pick a son-in-law.

It's not just a pastime. The main thing is to inherit the martial spirit.

Otherwise, let other hooligans bully their heads, and they don't know how to fight back. Then you can only honestly raise your hands and go to the concentration camp to be a slave.

The so-called 'although the country is big, the warlike will perish, although the world is peaceful, forgetting the war will be dangerous'. That's what happened.

Everyone is out to mix, and they all know that everything has to be solved by themselves, and only those with hard fists and many younger brothers can be the boss. I never believed in any immortal emperor savior.

Those things are used to deceive the dead people below, so that they have some illusions in their hearts and work hard for themselves.

Thinking that shouting two slogans, getting a fairy to worship the dead people, and telling them to "make me cows and horses, sacrifice children and daughters, you can be nobles in the next life", you can collect their hard-earned money, make luxury cars by yourself, charter second wives, and provide children to go abroad, that can only be said to be very stupid and naΓ―ve.

That's too much to underestimate those dead people. Although some of them believe in that set, there are also some people like Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Liu Laobang, Spartacus, William Wallace and others who don't believe it.

Those who want those ordinary people to obediently hand over the money, in the final analysis, rely on the guys in their hands.

And autumn hunting is the best opportunity to show your muscles. ####

In this era, in most countries, autumn hunting is as important as worshipping the gods.

Although Uncle Lorraine is also a nobleman, the funny thing is that he has never participated in the autumn hunt.

used to nest in a small place in the countryside, because he was too poor, the local nobles were afraid that he would borrow money, so they pretended not to remember that their neighbor also had an earl of dragon cliff grass, and no one took them to play.

Later, Lorraine went to war, and when it was time to hunt in the autumn, he was leading a large army to hunt orcs on the savannah.

Γ—Γ—Γ—Γ—Γ—Γ— facing the slightly cold autumn wind, Lorraine shook the reins, kicked the horse's belly, and rode his horse to the top of a small hill, looking down the hill from a high position.

I saw flags waving and horns repeatedly.

A long procession was marching down the mountain.

The line of pedestrians was like ants, and from here only the black head of the person could be seen, the front end had disappeared into the sky, but the back tail was still below the horizon, like a flowing black river.

hoplites, light infantry, spearmen, archers, heavy cavalry, light cavalry, engineers, baggage soldiers, horses, carts, soldiers...... Countless teams formed a huge corps, kicked up the dust that obscured the sky and the sun, and marched forward.

Everywhere the army went, the military appearance was neat and unparalleled. The flying military flags, the neat pace, and the killing atmosphere of the battle array are like the autumn wind, fierce and sharp, and it is chilling.

Ren Sui can see that this army is well-trained.

On the other side of them, less than two miles apart, the same team was marching forward in the same direction as them.

Although their team was also a military order, with flags fluttering, horns constantly waving, and fully armed knights shuttling back and forth, the military appearance and military discipline were much worse.

From time to time, there was the sound of giggling laughter, and sometimes even the sound of singing.

Occasionally, you can see young girls wearing red and willow green, as well as children's figures shuttling back and forth among them.

And they were all carriages and knights.

The carriages were extraordinarily luxurious, spacious sedans with horses or six horses, and from time to time someone leaned out of the carriage and greeted the people next to them.

And the armor on the knights' bodies was also extremely luxurious, all like mirrors, shining in the sun, and the helmets were decorated with eye-catching decorations, like proud roosters, all of them were extremely stinking farts.

Behind them, there were countless attendants and servants, also dressed in neat robes, on which the family crests of their respective noble families were emblazoned.

It was a team of dignitaries and dignitaries who came to the imperial city.

Because of the martial traditions of the Semitic people, even if they are not good at martial arts, they have to come out with swords and swords to shake around, so as not to quarrel with others, saying that they do not understand military affairs and are derelict in their duties.

After all, according to the law, in the event of a war, these noble children will be conscripted into the army at any time.

It's all what Fiona told him in the first place.

The men laughed and laughed, and the knights rode back and forth throughout the procession, proudly showing off their equipment and laughing loudly with the girls.

Lorraine only glanced twice, and then noticed that in the middle of the procession, there was a little fat man riding a white elephant who was very conspicuous, and he would walk in the middle of the group.

He is not big, with a pair of expensive crystal sunglasses on his nose, two pistols on a wide cow belt around his waist, his chest and belly folded, and his hands on his chest. Whether it is men, women or children, when they see him, they all greet him very warmly.

Not Leo...... Uh, Chairman Lei Guangguang Lei, which one is it?

This little rascal is also a celebrity in the Imperial City now, and now when it comes to the chairman of the Flying Eagle Lightning Company, who doesn't know.

Now he is recognized as a very capable and extremely worldly person.

And relying on his cuteness, plus smart and clever, Adling, Fiona and other girls are also very fond of him, and if there is anything good, you have to give Leo a copy first, and you have to bring Leo if you have any fun.

has been mixed in this group of powerful women's army, and now no matter who it is, they are doing their best to please him.

And those people were shocked to see this little dead fat man, who was only a little older, so proficient in business.

If you have such a talent at a young age, it will definitely be limitless when you grow up. Therefore, I don't dare to underestimate him, on the contrary, I attach great importance to him.

This is a living God of Wealth!

He now doesn't need to be notified of all the mansions of dignitaries and dignitaries, and he is more familiar than going to his own home.

Moreover, this little ruffian also gave full play to his political talent for organization, and gathered a large group of little hooligans to follow his ass and mess around. If you do evil, you can't do it for a lifetime.

At this time, Leo saw Lorraine standing on the top of the hill and immediately slapped Xiaobai's ear.

As soon as Xiaobai turned his head and saw Lorraine, he immediately happily spread his big feet, carrying smoke and dust all the way, and ran towards this side with a bang.

A moment later, they approached.

Lorraine saw that although Leo had been blown by the wind for a day, his little face was flushed and extremely healthy, and he didn't know how his skin had grown, and there was no trace of wind and frost.

But Xiaobai's big eyes kept spinning, and he kept looking at his wallet with bad intentions, and hurriedly raised his head to pretend to see the weather, and then secretly looked at it twice, probably looking for when to start.

Lorraine couldn't help but sigh, and secretly said in her heart: Xiaobai, this beast, is really spoiled by Leo. Whoever it sees, it steals people's wallets.

Thinking of this, he immediately glared at Xiao Bai fiercely.

When Xiaobai saw the fierce color in his eyes, he didn't care, but grinned shamelessly and made a simple appearance. It's like a politician.

Lorraine shook her wallet at Xiaobai, then stuffed it into her arms, wrapped it tightly, and smiled at it with big white teeth.

Xiaobai saw it, and immediately shook his nose angrily, then drooped his head, boredly playing with the grass on the ground.

Lorraine couldn't help but laugh in her heart.

At this time, Leo said: "Boss, when will our next batch of goods arrive, those people are in a hurry." Urged me several times. ”

Lorraine thought for a moment, then spread his hands and said, "You ask me, I don't know, but I guess I should come back." They followed me. I think I have some experience. It's our people who connect with them over there, so you can rest assured. ”

Leo couldn't help but let out an 'oh', and said a little unwillingly, "If only I could urge them." Those guys must have been hiding and lazy. ”

Lorraine could only smile bitterly. Those ruffians just followed him on a trip, and sent them out directly, and they would definitely bump into each other.

Originally, Lorraine had planned to make a few more trips and take them with her. By the way, he laid his own intelligence network properly, but there was going to be a military exercise here, and as a unit commander, he really couldn't get out of it.

And in this military exercise, he has another important task. That is, it is necessary to win the position of marriage ambassador with the most outstanding expression. At that time, it was good to destroy the marriage between the Lingshan and Thunder Flash clans, and destroy their plan to raise troops to the east.

At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted: "Boss Lei, come on, we saw a rabbit running over." Let's get it. ”

Leo was overjoyed at the moment, and hurriedly said to Lorraine: "Boss, if you have the opportunity, hurry up and urge them." If we can catch up in time, our auction will be held during the field hunting. There are so many people there, you can definitely make a lot of money. ”

At this time, I heard someone below continue to shout: "Boss, hurry up, the rabbit will run away immediately." We're running out of options. ”

Leo said angrily at the moment: "Come, come, you rice buckets, what are you urging, you are dying." ”

He turned his head and said to Lorraine, "I won't tell you more, let's go." ”

As he spoke, he slapped his hands heavily on the little white buttocks.

Xiaobai glanced at Lorraine with disdain, and then ran down the hill quickly.

Lorraine couldn't help but feel angry, and scolded in his heart: What kind of beast is this, not letting it touch its wallet, it seems that it is still wrong with itself. If the three views are not correct, we must educate it well when we go back.

Immediately, I heard a cheerful shout from the bottom of the mountain.

"A few of you to the left, a few of you to the right. The others followed me. I'm definitely going to be able to catch that fat dead rabbit. When the time comes, I'll teach you how to cook a roast rabbit feast......"

As soon as Lorraine saw this, he heard the sound of the horn below sound again and again. Immediately afterwards, a knight galloped over.

He approached, saluted Lorraine, and said, "My lord, our strikers have arrived at the camp. The Commander-in-Chief ordered all the officers of the teams to hurry up and arrive at the camp by tonight. ”

Lorraine couldn't help but snort coldly.

He looked at the long line that could not be seen at a glance, thought about it for a moment, and said, "Got it." ”

The knight saluted, and then galloped down the hill.

Lorraine took a deep breath, then shouted to the middle of the group: "Attention of the whole army, my lord has an order, before tonight, all must reach the camp." Now, all marched hastily, speeding up. ”

With his order, the horn immediately sounded rapidly.

The junior officers in the ranks immediately walked out of the ranks, all of them shouting at the top of their voices: "Brothers, my lord has an order, march quickly. Speed up, speed up!"

While they shouted loudly, they also began to wave the leather whips in their hands, and as soon as they saw anyone who was still slowly soaring, they immediately hit them with a whip covering their heads and faces. The soldiers who beat them screamed. Then, as if he had been injected with blood, he quickly got up and increased his speed.

Under their drive, the speed of the whole team gradually increased. Dust kicked up high under their feet and they sped towards the sky.

By dusk, Lorraine's troops had reached their destination. Thunder Song Plains.

This place is also an important place for military aircraft, controlling the grassland in the north and defending the imperial city in the south, and it is also a famous strategic place in the history of the Semitic people. In order to compete for the control of the imperial city, the tribes within the Semitic tribe fought civil wars here.

After the Semitic opened this paddock. Every year, it is necessary to hunt and drill the army here. The drum vibrates the 'martial' spirit of the Semitic people.

This plain is very large, the scenery is beautiful, and the water and grass are abundant, there are many birds and animals, and there are many beasts of prey.

The terrain is open, which is extremely suitable for military exercises and hunting. It is also a hunting ground specially set aside by the Semitic people for hundreds of years.

At this time, the troops in the early stage had arrived, and there were other corps in the follow-up slowly advancing towards this side.

I saw a lead cloud hanging low under the gray sky.

All kinds of military flags have been planted all over the land, like the ocean.

The mountains are full of neat brown cowhide military tents, which are endless, and there is no end in sight.

Countless war horses wore loose and dusty in front of the camp.

People shouted and neighed, and the tide was boiling.

As the sky gradually darkened. Piles of bonfires lit up like twinkling stars in the sky. Eventually, on the earth, it converged into a sea of stars.

In the distance, the teams that had come also lit torches, like snaking dragons, stretched all the way to the sky.

Since this time it was a military exercise and hunting, there was no place where the marching and camping were not in accordance with military regulations and the art of war.

All around it, various Praetorian Divisions and regiments held their positions, and a large tent of the Chinese army was set up in the center as the headquarters. Next to it is a lookout platform, on which there are soldiers with military flags during the day and lanterns and torches at night, as a signal to give orders.

Inside, the dignitaries and dignitaries live in the middle and are closely protected.

Perimeter walls, wooden fences, and moats were erected. On top of the wall, every ten steps, there are lookout posts more than five meters high. Condescending, observe the situation inside and out.

Except for the Chinese army camp. The camps of each Praetorian Guard division were all in detachments, with fifteen camps in groups. A wide road is left in the middle. It can be used for four cars and eight horses at the same time.

In the center of each army, there was a general's court. There is a large amount of open space in between. There is a fence, an arrow range. It can be used for people to compete in archery here.

And there is a high platform in the middle of it. Not only are military orders issued there, but when someone commits a crime, it is enforced in public here.

By this time it was already dark, and although there were still troops coming outside, the soldiers of the battalions who had arrived had all rested.

These puppies of them had been running all day, and they were exhausted, and they had already spit out their tongues tiredly. Grabbing a pillow is like a vicious dog seeing a bone, and you can't kiss it anymore.

Outside the tent, the drums and horns in the barracks were heard, the fighting was cold, the guards were tight, and the antlers and firewood were all moved onto the avenue. The sentinels of all walks of life also wore armor and stood ready for battle. In case someone steals the camp in the dark.

In the Chinese army, it is a different picture.

They did not participate in exercises, but only in hunting.

Although their camp tents were also set up by military regulations, they were not strictly restricted. All of them are indulgent pleasures. Everybody is in high spirits.

At this time, many people gathered in the square and played everywhere.

Many aristocratic ladies in the middle are also flirting, and there are also children and naughty children shuttling around, giggling. It's very lively.

Although the laws in the Praetorian Guard are strict, they are only in charge of the small soldiers under them, and for those of Lorraine's level, they are basically ineffective.

And the Admiral is also extremely considerate of his subordinates. As soon as they arrived, they recruited all these officers into the Chinese army in the name of convening a military conference.

He is also painstakingly lonely, through the relationship of holding a drinking party, so that those officers and those bigwigs and dignitaries know each other, as for whom, who has great ability, whether he can enter the eyes of those bigwigs, and whether he can soar in the future, it depends on his personal ability.

As soon as Lorraine walked into the square, she saw Fiona coming with a lot of worries.

He couldn't help but feel strange in his heart, but before he could open his mouth to ask, he heard Deibol whisper: "Luo, you have to be careful, we have received a rumor that someone wants to kill you!"
