Dark, bright-eyed, and bulging overhead, Cohen recognized at a glance that it was the horse of unknown origin that he had brought back. It's been a long time, it's grown very tall.

"Little crow!" Cohen laughed, and walked over to stroke it, asking the groom, "Why did you put my little crow here?"

"Your Majesty, this horse is only more than three years old, and he has not received long-distance training, so he put it behind. The groom hurriedly explained: "And this horse is very weird......"

"What's weird?" Cohen patted the little crow's neck, the little crow's fur was smooth and felt very good to the touch.

"He was only three years old, but he was stronger than a four-year-old horse of the same period, and he was so grumpy that he was not allowed to ride it. The groom wrenched his hand and pointed to Cohen and complained: "I often bully other horses, rob other horses of fodder to eat, and kick the fence seven times, plus today is the eighth time, fortunately I don't kick people......"

The little raven snorted and was squeezing his head into Cohen's arms, when he heard the groom count him down, and rushed towards the groom, though he was caught in the reins, but the groom was terrified.

"Okay, I'll just want it. Cohen untied the reins, let the little crow go, and said to the groom, "Take the saddle stirrup and put it on." ”

As soon as the groom slipped away to get something, Cohen walked out without even taking the reins, and the little crow meekly followed behind, and there was no sign of a short temper?

The First Guards had already lined up, and the veteran was explaining some things to the new recruits when they saw Cohen coming on an all-black horse.

Cohenri wears black armor and a black cape. Below is a dark horse. The veterans don't care. The new team members were dumbfounded.

"How's it going?" Cohen looked up at the rock next to him, "How is my horse?"

"Well, sir, I won't say anything nice. The rock thought for a moment how to answer. Of all the people, only he and the elves did not call Cohen "Majesty", he called Cohen "sir", and the elves called "Lord", all with Cohen's special approval.

"Let's be honest. ”

"Yes. Sir. Rock lowered his voice and said, "I thought that the horse I rode was ugly enough, but I didn't expect the chief to be the best...... It's black and there's a bag on my head......"

"Hey, do you have any vision? The little crow is black, this color matches me!" Cohen was very unhappy: "For this piece of its head, this piece of things, we have to look at it with an artistic eye." ”

"Sir, I'm a half-orc!" Rock knew that the chief had been in a particularly good mood for the past two days, and he was also trying his best to cooperate: "When have you ever heard that half-orcs have an artistic eye? That's what I learned from the dwarves......"

"So you have to study!" Cohen said in a bitter tone, "Otherwise, I won't be able to find a wife in the future...... I'm also going to introduce you to a few elves. ”

"Sir, spare me!" Rock frowned: "Elf, that's to be offered to the gods." ”

"Timid. Cohen saw that the white shadow had also picked his horse, and put away his joking expression: "Ready to go." ”

"Attention all - go!" The horse's head in the area of the rock immediately returned to a grim expression: "Destination, the first training ground!"

In the fields, the crops that have been planted since the New Year are growing vigorously, and if you are happy, you will have a rare harvest in the first season of this year. The farmers working in the fields looked at the fruits of their hard work, their eyes were full of anticipation, and they were all looking forward to some good weather in the future, so that the things in the fields could be collected into the warehouse one by one.

The entire Empire of Spians thought so.

In an era of wars and disasters, it is not easy to have a good harvest. Regardless of the regime, they are trying to protect this harvest season, especially in the areas where the rebels are entrenched, the bandits who used to wander are gone, and small armies go directly to the countryside to supervise the grain harvest.

Food, no matter what time it arrives, is the first thing in the list.

At this time, an announcement appeared silently in the towns and cities of the Sbia Empire, bringing new worries to all the people of the Empire.

This proclamation was issued by the Kaida family of the Dark Province, and the proclamation said that the 17th Emperor of the Empire, Cohen, was about to raise troops to clear the rebels and invade the Holy Capital. Al Qaida will hold an official enthronement ceremony. In order to reflect the emperor's sympathy for the people, the date of the attack was specially placed after the harvest, and the people everywhere should prepare in advance, protect their property, and keep enough food rations for their families......

Although the rebels tore up these announcements at the first time, the next day, the announcements appeared again, and in greater numbers. The content of the announcement has also been more widely circulated.

The people didn't really care who was the emperor or who was the orthodox, they just wanted to have a good harvest and be able to feed their families after paying the land rent and national taxes. But the announcement implicitly brought them a message, Cohen. Kaida is such an emperor who thinks about the people, and before sending troops, he will care about whether everyone has enough food.

To Cohen. Al Qaeda, the people are quite familiar. In the early years, the name spread throughout the towns and villages of the Sibian Empire, and the story after this name made the people even happier.

They know this person as well as they know their own family, because this person has done so many funny things, and they feel a sense of intimacy.

Cohen. Kaida, in the early years, used to represent - nonsense, naughty, simple, like the neighbor's naughty boy.

Later, in Cohen. After Al Kaida was awarded the title of nobility, the name represented youth, fearlessness, bravery, and glory.

Before the War of Gods and Demons, the name became even more dazzling. It is because of him that the Sibia Empire has become the only country with two god knights, although they are the children of nobles, but people outside the royal family can become god knights, which is a great thing in itself.

If those were due to the accumulation of family prestige, then Cohen. Kaida turned the tide in the war of gods and demons and became a rare successful general. It's all on your own.

During the Great War of Gods and Demons. The Divine Coalition is retreating. Only Cohen. The legions led by Kaida were firmly nailed to the defense zone, and although the coalition forces blocked the news, it was an indisputable fact that other empires bordering the demarcation line between gods and demons were invaded by the demon army on different paths. Only the Sibia Empire, the Ninth Legion under his leadership did not let a single demon soldier cross the line!

What is a celebrity?

Since Martin. After Luther disappeared, this was the first famous general to appear in the Sbya Empire, the only famous general who made the people feel that they could be completely trusted, and at the same time made the people feel extremely proud.

Of course, these are spread among the people.

After the end of the Great War of Gods and Demons. The original Prime Minister Lu Man proclaimed the whole country, Cohen. Kaida is a rebel, he lured the demon army into the empire, and he caused the internal strife in the empire.

Although the people are not smart, they still have basic judgment, who would believe that the always loyal Al Kaida family will be rebellious? Besides, what kind of "demon army" will enter the country without harassing the people? But at that time, Lu Man's power was in full swing, and everyone had no choice. Under Lu Man's strong oppression, the people thought that the Kaida family could not hold on, and Lu Man's subordinates even preached it everywhere. Cohen. Al Qaida is long dead.

However, later, Lu Man, who had an absolute advantage in power, failed to attack the Dark Province twice. This rumor is self-defeating.

Now, the Al Qaeda family has announced that they will counterattack in the near future, and although the people are still calm on the surface, they are already alive inside. They hated Lu Man so much, everyone knew that he promised other armies that they could rape and plunder in the Holy Capital, and he was the culprit of the Three-Day Rebellion in the Holy Capital during the rebellion, which was too immoral, and no one knew if he would have a three-day rebellion in other places......

With such an emperor, everyone did not have a good life.

Although Lu Man also posted a lot of announcements on the streets, no one took that seriously. After he ascended the throne, the new royal flag, the new royal insignia, how the people looked at it unpleasantly - Lu Man had lost the hearts of the people, and despite the repeated proclamation of many favorable civil decrees, everyone did not believe it, and even many lower-ranking officials, nobles and scholars resented him.

The people's hearts are surging, just waiting for an opportunity to break out.

The announcement, which also reached the hands of the aristocracy, triggered a new round of unrest among the aristocracy.

The aristocrats to Cohen. The impression of Kaida is far more complex and profound than that of the general public. Cohen's behavior would have been felt by the people, but by the nobility it would have been a mess......

All in all, Cohen. Kaida acted arbitrarily, and his rebellious personality was too heavy, and the nobles didn't like it very much.

Lu Man is different, although he is not a hereditary title, he does not dare to take the noble class seriously, and will be careful to serve. Although they despised what Lu Man did, there were still many nobles who preferred this "obedient" emperor from the bottom of their hearts.

But there are also a few aristocratic families who have dealings with the Al Qeda family and have not been destroyed by Lu Man, and trust Weisu. Al Qaeda's person. As a result, the aristocracy of the Spya Empire completed the final division of the camp in a short period of time, and most of them turned to Luman, and a small number of people were already planning to re-establish contact with the Dark Province.

The pace of this divergence was quite fast, and everyone knew that this was the last chance to bet.

There are also some nobles, although they avoid foreign troubles, they are also always paying attention to the situation at home.

Although the number of these nobles is not large, the family property and land are second to none among all the nobles, and it not only costs a lot of money to force trouble abroad, but other empires will not accept it without good power and relations. Their abacus is playing well, because in this way, they can not choose any side to take refuge, let alone worry about being dragged down by either side.

Now, when the final battle is imminent, they are happier. Because no matter which side wins, they just need to get in the luxurious carriage and go back and continue to enjoy. It's not surprising to them, it's been like this since ancient times, it's normal, and it's a very safe way to do things.

As for what to pay for the empire...... Anyway, when they go back, they will support the emperor, no matter who the emperor is.

As for the other empires in the Divine Alliance, they have lost their enthusiasm for the current situation of Spia. According to the current shape, no matter who wins or loses on both sides, it is impossible for him to get oil and water from it, no matter who has the last laugh, it is all caused by the brilliance of the Protoss, and it has nothing to do with him. The empires only want to win if the Al Qaeda family wins. Just don't dig through the rotten accounts of your own army during the rebellion.

The priests of the temple had long been honest. and no longer run out to preach who is orthodox. Even the temples and temples in the Sibian Empire stopped inciting, and the priests shrank one by one. When someone comes to their door and asks for guidance, they will ask for justice in empty words, but they cannot clearly state which side represents justice, and if they ask again and again, they will ask believers to judge with their hearts......

The expression is pious, the language is sincere, and what is said is as if it were true.

In this harvest season, the entire Divine Alliance is silent. Everyone is waiting, waiting for the final result, just like a gambling game, the last hole card is about to be revealed!

The Spya Empire, a dark province and a secret training ground.

It was a training ground close to the front line, responsible for training all the new recruits of the Third Army, and the whole field was full of people and the atmosphere was quite enthusiastic. The soldiers trained here are not only talented recruits, but also experienced veterans who have returned from the front. Recruits should learn actual combat experience faster. Veterans are learning basic command skills at the squad leader level.

Because it is the exclusive training ground of the Third Legion, it has a very strong Third Legion style in the training. The training instructors especially like to test their recruits in endurance and toughness, and it seems that they have to train countless Moyalai.

A few days earlier, Cohen issued a new standard of tactical training to the military headquarters, and in accordance with the new requirements, this training ground focused its training on street fighting, encirclement and suppression, search, and battlefield defense. Batches of battlefield defense equipment were also deployed on the training ground, so that the recruits could familiarize themselves with it.

Because they are fighting on their own soil, they must minimize losses and avoid all damage that can be avoided. In order to create an offensive momentum to deter the rebels, and in order to end the war as much as possible, not only did the three legions of the Kaida family have to go into battle, but even the army of the General Staff.

The 1st Army and the 2nd Army served as the main attackers, the cities were handed over to the 1st Army, and the 2nd Army was responsible for field operations.

The Third Army was to assume the duties of the front line in this attack, and all the towns, once attacked, were to be handed over to them within a few hours, and they were to be responsible for clearing the remnants of the enemy, defending against a possible rebel counterattack, and maintaining law and order in time of war, until the arrival of the local officials who had been rationed.

After walking around the training ground and asking some questions, Cohen hurriedly led the people to the exclusive training ground of the Second Legion.

The Second Legion Training Ground was a different story.

A typical rebel field camp stood in the training ground, and the recruits, led by the veterans, launched one attack after another, and the officers shouted and cursed endlessly. In each attack, some of the recruits were wounded, either with their arms broken or hanging on their thighs, and the wounded were not only scolded, but dragged to a corner for public display, because there were so many wounded that the rationed witch doctor was too busy.

Wounded recruits are bandaged, and can rest for one or two attack waves next to them, during which they listen to experienced veterans analyze the causes of injuries and how to avoid them, and then pat their butts before getting back on them.

"If you want to stay in the Second Legion, you have to remember it for me. An officer shouted: "You can't go to the front line if you're slightly wounded – you have to pick up a knife if you're seriously injured!"

"Shut up!" Cohen pointed to the officer's nose: "The wounded don't go to the front line, do you want my soldiers to die? How can the seriously injured have the strength to chop? Chop you shit and run around the field for me ten times!"

"Yes sir!" the officer didn't say a word, dismounted and ran, it seemed that this man was also common to Cohen, otherwise he wouldn't have moved so fast.

Cohen turned around and said a few more words, but he did not interrupt the ongoing training - high-intensity combat readiness training is necessary to allow soldiers to greatly reduce casualties in wartime, but such blatant clamor is not good! People will say that the Al Qeda family abuses recruits......

In contrast, on the training ground of the First Army, the attitude of the officers was much more peaceful.

The Engineer Regiment of the Dark Army is a place where geniuses gather, and in a short period of time, they have built half a city on the training ground of the First Legion! Moats, walls, towers, streets, fortresses, dwellings, everything you want.

The recruits first learned to run long distances, besiege the city, clear the outskirts, and camp under the city. Then the veterans taught them how to storm the city wall, dodge flying arrows, climb ladders, climb ropes, open city gates, engage the enemy outside the city, fight on the city walls, attack and defend in the lanes, spears and short knives, war bows and crossbows......

The officers in charge around him introduced them one by one, and even Cohen himself felt dizzy, not knowing how the recruits survived.

"How many more training grounds are down there?" Cohen asked Rock.

"There are several. The rock is very familiar: "The training grounds of various races, as well as the training grounds of various special classes. ”

"No, I won't. Cohen shook his head: "Let's go directly to the staff training ground, Carlos and they should already be waiting for me." ”

"Okay. The rock yelled behind him, "Ready to go!"

The Guards followed Cohen around the training ground for many days, and all of them were in full swing, and their ears were almost deafened. As soon as they entered the training ground of the General Staff, everyone felt that they had arrived in heaven.

In addition to training staff officers in their ability to work on paper, the training ground of the General Staff Department is also called "the cradle of those who steal chickens and dogs" in the military. It was here that the various reconnaissance teams were trained, and some of the training officers were the "rumor-mongering" officers in the Battle of Tucheng......

When Cohen entered the training ground, he also dealt with a small dispute in passing. (To be continued......)
