Chapter 169: Chivalry and Warriors

When Theodora came to the convent, Guo Kang was indeed here.

Wang Da Lama brought many people to visit the Queen Mother. In addition to Tuhuan, Guo Kang and Jeanna, there are also several of his assistants, as well as a middle-aged man with dark skin and a turban.

Thinking of what Grand Lama Wang said last time, if he asked the Heavenly Sect to help, maybe he really invited these people over.

Seeing her appear again, Wang Da Lama was a little surprised, but both Tuohuan and Guo Kang had "sure enough" expressions.

This made Theodora a little unhappy, thinking that they were treating themselves as a nuisance to others—especially since she herself subconsciously wondered if she was overdoing it.

This attitude made her a little weak on the one hand, and she didn't want to admit it on the other. Even a little annoyed by exposing his own behavior.

She gave her a blank look and walked over to greet her grandmother.

Tuhuan looked at her inexplicably, and then at Guo Kang. However, before he could figure out the situation. The Great Lama Wang had already been polite to everyone, and at the same time he had also pulled him over.

At the entrance of the monastery stood two young girls. They wore the black armor of the Legionary standard, and the same black helmet was tied with a white headscarf that was commonly used by the nuns. He wore a black robe, cowhide boots on his feet, and an axe and gun more than a man tall in his hand.

The two of them stood straight, their expressions calm, but their eyes were bright, and they looked obviously highly trained. This state is much more reliable than the guards at the door of Guo Kang's house, who can only eat melons and watch dramas.

"Is this the same way for the nun?" She heard the Heavenly Scholar say to the Great Lama.

"According to the rules, our church is in charge of all theological and philosophical institutes and church schools, except for the local dioceses under its direct jurisdiction. Traditionally, these institutions admit only men. Wang Da Lama said.

"As for the women's congregation of nuns and the school, they are theoretically semi-civil organizations. Therefore, the church only sends people to make regular rounds to provide counseling and sponsorship to qualified organizations, and does not care much about their specific operations. In the absence of a clear jurisdiction, their uniforms and internal discipline are also determined by themselves. ”

"Actually, most of the nuns are very ...... Loose. Lama Wang struggled to come up with a suitable adjective and explained: "This nuns' congregation belongs to our Queen Mother's personal hobby. She didn't say this was the uniform of the Sisters, and we couldn't care about it......"

"I heard His Excellency Guo Dawus say before that the Queen Mother loves martial arts. I haven't seen her yet, but I can still feel her prestige. The scholar also said politely.

"Hey, I'll have to go with you later." Grand Lama Wang muttered helplessly, and knocked his head with the dust in embarrassment.

“……”

Theodora said a brief hello to the Great Lama and the others, and then walked to the door. Seeing her coming, the nun standing guard on the left smiled and winked mischievously at her. The one on the right immediately knocked the ground with an axe and gun, so she stuck out her tongue and stood in good order.

After a while, an old lady walked out with a brisk walk.

Her pale hair was simply pulled back, and her face was thin and vicissitudes, but she still had good features and sharp eyes. Although wrinkles climbed between the eyebrows and eyes, I can still vaguely see the charm of the year, and I guess I was also a beauty when I was young.

She wore a plain narrow-sleeved blouse and breeches, the cuffs of which were tucked into boots, and she looked simple and capable. Around his waist was an ordinary belt, with a dagger stuck in one side, and the brass ring on which the sword hung on the other side was empty. She had no extra jewelry on her, except for a gold-encrusted wrench on her right hand.

"The Queen Mother is here." The Great Lama said to the people.

Along with the Heavenly Sect Teacher, everyone bowed down one after another.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, it's all here, what's the trouble." Queen Elizabeth didn't care much, and said to the Wang Da Lama in fluent Central Plains: "Old Wang, you are here, I am just about to look for you." ”

"What's wrong?" Grand Lama Wang seemed unprepared and asked.

"I want to send the children to Egypt with the little Jeanne of the Yun Wei family, and help me clear the relationship, okay?" The Queen Mother made a direct request.

"No problem, we have already said that they will go to Antioch first and then to Alexandria as the second group." Grand Lama Wang told her, "In the past few days, I have been helping little Jeanna to train. ”

"No, I want them to be the first ones." The Queen Mother shook her head: "Anna is resolutely unwilling, otherwise I would like to go myself." I haven't fought in Egypt in my life. ”

"Uh...... "Don't say that the queen is unwilling, the king and the great lama obviously can't agree. He had a look of embarrassment, trying to organize his words, trying to convince the other party.

"Queen Mother, although the Mamluks are weak and have civil strife, they are famous elite soldiers in the world after all. The first legions of the past will face attack at any time. Guo Kang took a step forward and analyzed it clearly: "Except for the Mamluks led by the Sultan, the local people do not necessarily welcome us. Hostilities from die-hard believers and local chieftains were also indispensable. ”

"I don't doubt the fighting ability of the ladies, if you just go to set up a dignified formation, and the fight is over, then I also support sending more fighters, including female fighters, to support, the more people, the better. But the situation on the front line this time is complicated and cannot be summed up by a simple 'battle'. ”

"I know that you will feel that you are also warriors and do not need special treatment, but since we live in mortal worlds, we must face the reality that all of us must treat you with special treatment, including our enemies, no matter what."

"If you go to the front, the commanders and legionnaires in charge of this place will definitely bear a lot of psychological pressure, and this is not something that we can remove with a few words of comfort."

"And in the event of losses, or even capture, it will definitely have an impact on the morale of the army. Don't forget, this time we are not going to fight bandits in the mountains, but to fight Mamluks, and no one can guarantee that everyone will be safe. ”

"In the army, we fought as warriors, not chivalrous. In addition to martial arts, a warrior must also have a sense of the overall situation, discipline, and a sense of responsibility for the collective. Even if we sacrifice our personal honor temporarily, we must take victory in the war and the interests of the collective as our first goal. ”

"I can understand that this is not fair to a person who has been practicing martial arts all year round, and even cruel. But as warriors, we are the ones in all of Rome who need to be calm and realistic. Because what we have to face and fight is this cruel and unjust world. ”

"So, I implore you to think carefully and consider my proposal." He concluded.

Queen Elizabeth looked at the Grand Lama.

"I didn't teach it in advance, so I didn't have this level." Wang Da Lama spread his hands.

"No, I mean, you're going to have to learn from this kid too." The Queen Mother shook her head, and then said decisively: "Good boy, what you said makes sense, just do what you say." ”

After it was put on the shelves, there were not many recommendations, and in the past few days, I have found some other bigwigs to ask for books

Today's friendship pushes each other: "This AD is too stable"

In addition, I haven't asked for a ticket for a long time, and I forgot about the recommendation result yesterday...... Let's count the votes
