Chapter 117: Passing by
The time entered the depths of winter, the temperature became colder and colder, and recently it fell a heavy snow that spread half of the northland, and the old people said that they had never seen such a situation.
After more than ten days of marching, the cavalry reached the southern edge of the fortress county, by which time the winter hunting troops had been withdrawn from outside the fortress, and after a month of delay in dealing with slaves, sorting supplies, and recollecting grain and grass, the two sides completed the convergence on the north side of Berkshire.
The atmosphere in the barracks was much more relaxed than when she had marched north, but it was a fact that tens of thousands of soldiers had been killed, and given that the battle was not too far from the Imperial border, Estes chose to recover the corpses of the soldiers against public opinion, a move that gave her a lot of support from the new border army.
After integration, its headquarters exceeded 50,000 people, and all of them were elite main forces, and they were all princes of a town wherever they were placed in the empire.
Due to the news of the sentry cavalry, the cavalry was warmly received the next moment they entered the camp, and Jiang Yuan rode the Yanruihu straight to the Chinese army's tent.
Rushing into the big tent, Estes was full of coldness, and just wanted to question a guy who had been away from the team for more than a month, when he heard the other party shouting:
"Sir, let someone save me."
Jiang Yuan hugged the clan king and gently put it next to the bonfire in the tent, the previous injuries were all good, mainly because of the sudden heavy snowfall, coupled with the bumpy and tiring road, which directly hit the relaxed old man.
The high fever does not stop, and the body temperature is out of balance.
"This is the clan king?"
Estes looked with interest at the king of the alien race in front of him, the old man with majestic eyebrows, white hair, tall stature, and perhaps brave in his youth.
"Is there a way?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"Yes." Estes gave Riva a look and continued, "The owner of the Anji Workshop, who is responsible for the safety of the royal family's medical treatment, is the holder of the Emperor's Death Urn, and its effect is to use his life force to heal injuries and diseases, and usually few of them have died well. Earnest attaches great importance to this winter hunt, and there is a death potion above the deputy general level. ”
Liva walked over with a carved wooden box, and when he opened it, there were seven cylindrical containers containing pale green liquid, and he took out one and poured it into the clan king's mouth, and in the next second, the glowing green light began to flicker on the surface of his body.
Seeing this, Estes stopped paying attention, looked at someone and said, "Why don't you take me with you when you go to the north." ”
"It was a complete accident." Jiang Yuan was more interested in An Jifang, "What is the level of information about the urn of the dead?"
"Top Secret." Estes closed his eyelids slightly.
"So the emperors of the past dynasties can only live to the end of their lives?"
"You're asking more and more questions."
Jiang Yuan bowed his head, saw that the clan king was out of danger, turned around and left the big tent, and the next thing was to wait for the imperial capital to get the reward.
At the door, the alien girl who used to be a trophy was standing guard, looking at the clothes should be a herald, her long hair was cut to a very short time, and her eyes became at least no longer weak, Jiang Yuan glanced at it casually and withdrew his gaze, according to common sense, the heralds have to be served by personal soldiers, but Estes is a person who can let go even of his mortal enemy, and it is normal for Hu to come.
If he's not mistaken, the girl has a chance to assassinate Estes safely, and the other party will be let go afterwards, and if the second assassination fails to make great progress, it is estimated that she will be killed by the interrogation game.
On the east side of the big tent is the cavalry camp, and at this moment many people are telling the story of this trip to Saibei with other soldiers, and the clan king is the best evidence, so no one questions the authenticity.
Jiang Yuan found Lesu and Rennes, the former had recently gathered 3,000 left-wing troops, plus the original remnants of a few hundred thieves, the strength had exceeded one colonel, and it took him less than two months to go from the leader of the thief village to the regular military academy officer.
The latter was also promoted because of merit, and two officers of the left-wing troops died, and the vacated places were naturally taken away by someone who was the chief general of the left-wing at the time.
"Lesu, follow me to the imperial capital, Rennes, your troops are stationed in Berkshire, integrate the border army prisoners, and the soldiers act as officers, I will contact the Count of Tius in this matter, and 10,000 of the prisoners will be handed over to the Earl."
Wren wanted to speak again and again, but finally made up his mind: "My lord, my father ......"
The incident of engulfing grain and grass led by Viscount Abel has been dealt with by the Earl.
"I'll try, but I don't promise." Jiang Yuan replied.
"Thank you...... Cousin Knoll. Wren pursed his lips.
"No thanks, it's you who have this value, go and prepare."
"Yes, Lord Baron."
After Wren left, Le Su smiled and said, "My lord, I intercepted a lot of beautiful women last time I distributed the loot, if you are interested, I will send them to the sub-camp tent tonight." ”
"Can you get a dragon?" Jiang Yuan asked calmly.
Lesu: "......"
Sure enough, the real pervert is always hidden.
"If you're a dragon of earth, I might be able to give it a try." Le Su was embarrassed, and there was still a little disbelief on his face.
"It's not aesthetically pleasing at all, forget it, send someone to keep an eye on Hattings' whereabouts."
"Yes."
……
The Winter Hunt troops continued to return south, stopping temporarily when passing through the junction of Berkshire and Blue Sea County, and the aristocratic coalition returned to their respective homes, except for the statement on the central faction, they received slaves and rewards, and on the whole, they made a profit, and the fundamental reason was that the border army and the Norfolk family failed to participate in the distribution of spoils this time.
Due to the large number of men and horses, it took more than a month to march from Berkshire to the emperor, during which people had to bear the cost of eating and chewing, and the imperial capital could not pull such a long supply line in a short time.
Earl Castle, Berkshire.
In the stable to the west of the school grounds, Tius patiently fed his mounts, the second-class dangerous breed Hongwu Horse, whose combat effectiveness was not outstanding, but it was very beautiful, and the price of a good stallion was even much higher than that of a manor.
Tall and smooth, full of muscles, and wet when sweating, this stallion is maroon red and will show a wonders of bleeding after sweating, given that he is not yet three years old this year, he will have the opportunity to adapt to other mares many times in the future.
"But there is still no fire destroying the tiger's majesty." Tius said with a slight regret that he had originally intended to give the first Hongwuma cub to Noor, but now it seems that he is a little weak.
"Give it to Red Hitomi." Jiang Yuan sat on the guardrail and said, the water bag in his hand was filled with mare's milk wine, which was obtained from the collection of the nobles in the clouds, and he could barely temporarily replace mezcal as a daily drink.
Tius clapped his hands and got up, "How long are you going to stay when you come back this time?" ”
"At most, Estes is in the limelight now, and those two Taishou don't dare to refuse her request, at most they will tentatively prevaricate a few times." Jiang Yuan took a sip of the light golden liquor in the water bag, the milky aroma was pure, sweet and sour, and it was relatively good.
