Chapter 25: The Harvest
Black Flag Army.
The only organization composed entirely of civilians, it has participated in almost all the major battles of the Silverwing Empire since its formation, and can be called the elite of the elite. In 709 BCE, led by the then Bloody Grand Duke as the commander of the legion, he resisted the most elite alien army in the Shadow Moon Continent with the strength of a single legion, and finally took advantage of the strategic terrain to storm the Dragon Castle to complete the reversal battle. After this battle, he joined forces with the Red Banner Army to solve the invasion of the Southern Allies. In modern times, the first commander of the army has been replaced, and the classic battle examples have been fought more or less, which can be called a well-deserved tiger and wolf division.
There are more than two in the Black Flag Army, one is that there are many civilians, and the other is that there are many warriors. Due to the lack of aristocratic officers, the vast majority of warriors who joined the army were willing to choose the Black Flag Army in order to pursue a fair and frank career.
The warrior has a reckless atmosphere, coupled with the fact that the Black Flag Army has always been brave, and the combination of the two has formed today's formidable style. Although Sauron's military rank is only a captain, he is a captain of the Quartermaster Department, a typical key position in a key department, because he acts steadily and well, he can speak very well in front of his superiors.
Now the Silverwing Empire is facing off with the Iron People Alliance in the south, vying for sea supremacy in the Orca Fjord, and the situation is becoming increasingly serious. The Black Flag Army continued to move grain and grass to the south, precisely in preparation for a large-scale expansion in the future, and the military station outside the pendulum city was just a point on the transportation line.
In a few days, Sauron was about to leave the place with the army, but he did not expect to receive a message from Bard asking for help at this time.
The father and son have been competing with each other for many years, and Bud, the father, has never bowed his head, but today he took the initiative to give in for Lei Luo, and even said nonsense like "good son, come and support the scene".
Sauron couldn't think of any other choice. It's just that for Lei Luo, he is also more curious.
The red man from the quartermaster department spoke, and naturally some of his comrades rushed to help. Soldiers like wolves and tigers came to almost a battalion, erected barricades on all sides, and cordoned off the police station into iron barrels within a kilometer radius.
At the same time, the old Tang Jin, who was still noisy in the police station, didn't know that the eldest son of Lu Dao and the people from the Backfire Martial Arts Hall were blocked outside. Seeing that the Iwayama warrior didn't seem to have any intention of making a move, he gradually regained his arrogance, pointing at the bearded sheriff's nose and swearing endlessly, foaming at the mouth.
"If you provoke me, a letter will tell you to get out of this position! Do you know what your director has to do with me? Even the big people of the royal capital come to Pendulum City and remember to be a guest at my old Tang Jin's house. What kind of thing are you, dare to go against me!" Old Tang Jinzheng scolded vigorously, but found that the sheriff's eyes were not on him.
Not only the sheriff, but almost everyone except the old Don King was looking at the door of the police station.
A well-dressed captain strode in.
Sauron's appearance style is probably inferior to even the popular star, the straight trouser line is like being carved with a knife, and a pair of high-top military boots under his feet are recognizable, and he looks straight into it without squinting, and there seems to be no one in his eyes at all.
When the bearded sergeant first noticed the pure black military uniform on his body, he completely forgot who the old Don King was.
Black Flag Army!
These plague gods have smashed the police department, who the hell recruited them?!
The sheriff's legs were so weak that he could barely support his body, and when he saw Sauron coming straight to him, his whole body was soaked with cold sweat and even his clothes.
Zoro stood straight less than a meter, his emotionless gaze falling on the sheriff's face, and he didn't speak. Both of them had beards, but Sauron was much younger. The sheriff looked at him so closely that his teeth chattered.
"I've sent someone to seal the entire neighborhood outside. Please bring Lei Luo out, if you feel embarrassed, I don't mind turning this place upside down. "Zoro's baritone is deep and melodious.
"Yes, yes......" The sheriff couldn't think of a second word to respond to the other party, and waved his hand desperately at his subordinates, "Go and lift someone!"
Little Claude didn't know the height of the sky, and he looked at Sauron out of the corner of his eye, and was about to ridicule him for blowing nonsense, but he was covered by old Don Jin.
"This will save Lao Tzu trouble!" Bard smacked his lips beside him, secretly amused.
Sometimes fists do solve the problem, but it's not necessarily the best solution. Zoro only relied on the message he carried, and he actually knew what style of action to play his cards according to, which can only be said to be a heart-to-heart relationship between father and son.
After Lei Luo was brought in, the audience was still in an eerie state of silence, and no one said anything.
"Brother Zoro, why are you here?" Seeing that his father and brother were fine, Lei Luo first greeted Zoro.
"I heard you're in some trouble, so I'm going to take a look. Zoro smiled back, "What the hell is going on?"
Old Tang Jin's face had changed, and he felt ridiculous, and he couldn't figure out what kind of ability this poor boy had, and he even got in touch with the Black Flag Army.
After listening to Lei Luo explain the matter roughly, Zoro thought for a moment and said, "Since both sides are here, why don't you settle the matter here!
"Good. Lei Luo replied simply.
Zoro nodded secretly, youth and frivolity are often inseparable, but this kid does it when it's time to do it, and shut up when it's time to shut up, and he knows the truth.
"You take the 1000 gold dragon out, and this matter is over, how about it?" Zoro turned to Old Don King.
"Fart!" Little Claude thought he was in a nervous situation, and desperately broke free from Old Don King's hand, and yelled at Zoro.
There was a crisp sound of "pop", and he received a hot slap in the face.
After Old Don King slapped him, little Claude didn't look surprised, but looked at Zoro and Lei Luo gloomily, and his hands trembled even more. "I'm a little curious, what is the relationship between the two?"
"He's my little brother. Zoro said lightly.
Old Tang Jin obviously didn't believe it, but he didn't ask any more questions, and said with a dry smile: "Even the Black Flag Army has come out, what else can I say? It's just that you don't go to the military affairs, and come to take care of the affairs of the common people, is it really appropriate?"
"Whether it is suitable or not, you can go to the gendarmerie department and ask for clarification. Zoro replied lightly, "Lao Tzu is loyal to the country, and he has broken through the mountains and seas of swords." Even if you occasionally wear this skin to bully ordinary people like you, it's not a big deal. ”
At this point, old Don Jin can be regarded as completely dead.
If 1,000 gold dragons were converted into the usual currency used in Lei Luo's previous life, it would be almost a million. Looking at the stack of large-value gold coupons that Old Tang Jin asked people to take, Sven and his son thought that they were dreaming, and they couldn't believe that Lei Luo's friend could force Old Tang Jin to bow his head.
Little Claude was still unconvinced, staring at Lei Luo from afar, his eyes were bloodshot.
"That's right, Mr. Captain. Before Old Tang Jin left, he said to Sauron with a smile, "Tomorrow is the day when the Academy Martial Arts Club will hold a confrontation match, and I also know that my eldest son, who is not a weapon, will probably be against you, the little junior brother." If you feel that my side needs to abstain, I will do so immediately. ”
The gap that Old Tang had knocked out in front of him had already been stitched, and his muscles were pulled when he laughed, like a ghost.
"No need. This time, it was Lei Luo himself who answered.
Old Don King gave him a deep look, and walked away with the gray guard and little Clauerde.
Zoro looked at Relo with interest, unable to tell if he was motivated or genuinely eager for challenge and growth.
When there was no one around, Lei Luo stuffed all the stacks of gold tickets to Sauron.
"What is this for?" Sauron was surprised.
"Invite the Black Flag Army brothers who came today to drink tea, and we can't let everyone run in vain. I didn't mean to ask you. Lei Luo half-jokingly.
Sauron smiled, took half of the money seriously, didn't even say hello to Bud, and led his troops back to the camp.
After saying goodbye to Bard and the warriors of Iwayama, Lei Luo walked on the way home, listening to his father and brother chattering in his ear, absent-minded.
The bronze mask in his arms had been covered with flesh and skin.
