Chapter 007: Rapid Progress
In Odo, apart from the capital of the three provinces, Barron was a good city, and some of the so-called nobles and nearby military officers often came here for recreation.
Food, this is an eternal problem, but this problem will never be solved in the Gulan Continent, there is no way, the big guys of the demon clan will not carry hoes at all.
Odo's war is coming, but the people still have more than a month to go, and the savage demons will wait until it snows before invading the empire's territory.
The deep snow will sink the horse's hooves, and the role of the cavalry will be greatly reduced, the demons are not all fools, they know the role of the cavalry.
The entry of the people into the city did not have any impact on the people on the streets, they were used to it, even if the demons entered the city, they would pack their bags in an orderly manner, in fact, they did the same.
"Jesse, where do you think we're going now?" said Cillin, looking at the busy people on the street.
"Of course it's going to the garrison house, do you want us to stay in that damn tavern, it's a good place to drink, but you can't sleep at night when it's noisy. Jesse saw a sign from a distance.
"Well, okay, let's go to the garrison mansion. ”
Both of them had been here before, but they only paused and didn't stay for long, but they still knew the location of the garrison.
"Two adults, my family has affection. A lieutenant-like man made a gesture of please.
Cillin and Jesse didn't let go too much and walked in.
"Aha, the two of you came from afar, it's really a long way to welcome, hurry up and prepare tea. So saying, a maid came out of the drawing-room.
"Do you have any military information when you two come to my garrison?"
It's no wonder that this garrison thinks so, now there will be a war right away, all places are preparing for war, Odo is so big, he always has to send someone to contact some, obviously, he regards Xilin as a liaison officer.
"Hehe, Lord Garrison don't have to be polite, we just passed by here, and wanted to rest in the Zun Mansion for one night, and we had no other intentions, and besides, don't call us adults, we don't dare to call it, he is Xilin, my name is Jesse, and we are all from the 27th Cavalry Regiment. ”
Jesse said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'm welcome, my name is Berg, take care of this Barron's garrison, hehe, please have tea. ”
Berg looked at the epaulettes on the two of them, which were the marks of the cavalry battalion officers, and said no more, the three of them said, the tea had been delivered.
"Hehe, Lord Berg is so interested, this tea must have just been sent from the south. Xilin took a sip and said with a smile.
"Uh...... Lord Xilin is really knowledgeable, this is the southern merchant group just brought it the day before yesterday, and he has not been willing to soak, so he will use it to greet the two of you today, hehe. ”
"Thank you for your generosity. ”
"Well, thank you, Lord Berg, we both want to walk around the city, so I'll stop me later. Cillin stood up and said.
"Then, let's go out after dinner. Berg also stood up and said.
"Don't bother, to be honest, I didn't have a good visit to this Barron City last time, and I can't miss it today, haha. ”
"Okay, I'll hold a banquet for you two in the evening. ”
"Thank you very much, hahaha. Cillin clenched his fists and said.
"Haha, where is this, you two deserve it. During the conversation, Berg was also a bold person, so he didn't pretend anymore.
Gal and the others had their own people to take care of the hospitality, so Sillin didn't have to think too much, and walked down the street with Jesse.
Although it was late, there were still a lot of people on the street, so the two of them found a tavern and went in.
The two chatted while drinking, and listened to the laughter around them, and before they knew it, two hours had passed.
Although so much time has passed, the two of them have heard a huge news, the emperor of the empire is critically ill, and he is going to hang up at this time, and the whole empire will be lively.
When they returned to the garrison mansion, they inevitably pushed the cup and changed the lamp for a while, and the two of them fell asleep until very late.
When they woke up in the morning, their heads still hurt badly, but they were much better after a little activity.
Berg ordered someone to prepare breakfast, and after eating, he stayed a little longer, and then Xilin resigned.
A dozen men came along the way, and came across many villages and towns, but they did not stop, they had plenty of food and water, and their horses were well fed in Barron.
Soon, two days passed, and they passed through Mount Canalens, of course, from the fortress of Kulen to Guò, and they did not have the ability to cross the mountains.
The hinterland of the empire and the entire Odo district are separated by this huge mountain range that stretches north and south, and to the east of the mountain range are the three provinces of Odo, although only three, but Odo is much larger than the average satrap and hereditary fiefdom.
Moreover, the governor of the Odo Special Governorate also holds the Northeast Army of the entire empire hostage, and his power is not insignificant, although each legion is a general, and there is also a so-called Imperial Northeast Army General Staff, however, the relationship between the chief of staff and the governor is father and son.
Galloping through the meadows of the Tuna plain, the procession proceeded at a rapid pace, and finally, at noon on the second day after passing through the Kulen fortress, they reached the banks of the beautiful Tuna River.
The Tuna River, a tributary of the Jogches River, can also be said to be upstream, originates from the confluence of the Canalens-Cons Mountains in the north, then flows along the edge of the deep forests of Tuna through the province of Tuna, and then meets the Bise River in the province of Tambul, and then flows south.
At this time, the grass by the river is also a little yellow, but compared to Otto, this is the paradise of horses, the pale green grass juice flows from the horse's mouth, everyone rests on the riverside, looking at the girl who washes clothes in the distance, and the young soldier whistles, which attracts a burst of laughter and scolding in the distance.
"Xilin, what should we do when we get to the imperial capital?" said Jesse, sitting on the soft grass.
Xilin was washing his face with clean water by the river.
"How do I know, if it were me, I would go straight to Wiesna, and going to the imperial capital would be a formality anyway. Cillin raised his head and said, the drops of water in his hair falling drop by drop, reflecting the sun.
"That's not good, we don't have the right, and it's useless to get to Wiesna. Jesse said.
"Well, yes, but it's good that Aubrey is here, and he'll definitely be able to beat those guys and hand over the army. After Xilin finished speaking, he continued to pry the water on his face with his hands.
"It should be Benson, he can come up with a great idea, but just the two of us right now. Jesse was helpless.
"Uh...... Then we should hurry up and leave the imperial capital before the emperor hangs up, by the way, who do you say will be the new emperor?" Xilin wiped the water from his face and sat down next to Jesse.
"Who? It's not you anyway, haha, okay, we've got to hurry. Jesse said and stood up.
"Damn, I just sat down. Cillin cursed and stood up.
Descending the Tuna River, at the confluence of the Tuna and Bise rivers, they crossed the river, and then along the foot of Mount Ilya, crossed a small river, and after half a day, they finally reached the front of the Imperial Territory.
