Although she escaped Joanna's test, her quiet and somewhat boring training life did not return to the barracks as Qi Lang expected. The three-day holiday of the Holy King's Festival seems to have been extended, and there will be no end to it, and this happy town will probably never be at peace.

It is said that Prince Marcus needs to make his footprints in every corner of the Luhmann Empire before his real birthday arrives. But he clearly underestimated the difficulty of the task, or perhaps he might have mistakenly thought that he would need to tread every piece of land in Shachie Town first. Anyway, he stayed in the town, and all day long, accompanied by Lieutenant Colonel William, lived a life of spending and drinking, and even the great cause of books was left behind.

As a result, some of the famous amusement parks in Shachtch Town suffered, except for the inn and racetrack run by Lord North, which did not have to be renovated, the Kailun Bar, Wilson's Playground and Archery Range did not meet the requirements for welcoming VIPs, and had to be extensively renovated the day before Prince Marcus's visit. For a while, chickens and dogs jumped in the town, tossing everyone as if they had taken off several layers of skin.

Qi Lang, of course, couldn't bear it. In addition to the fact that he had to run to Lieutenant Colonel William's residence every other day to take shifts, the normal daily training was also intermittent, and even Prince Marcus coughed, and the entire warband of the Spiral Frontier Army had to be accompanied by a few sneezes.

Qi Lang was very worried about this, the Mingyu Kingdom had already started a war, and I believe that it would not be long before the raging war would burn to the border, and at that time, the Xuanfeng Army would definitely not be able to sit idly by, and various tasks were likely to be waiting. There are certainly a lot of places in town that need to be renovated, but it's clear that it's not the best time to do it.

However, Lieutenant Colonel William had already finalized the general policy, and now the focus of the work could only revolve around the noble prince, and as for the training of recruits and veterans, it was only a trivial matter.

Qi Lang had no other way now than to squeeze out as much time as possible and lead all the soldiers of the 28th War Regiment to train more. However, the current 28th regiment is already a little unorganized, in addition to the female soldiers who are often drawn out to serve as a cheerleader for Prince Marcus's entertainment, many male soldiers will also provide the prince with services before and after the saddle when needed. In addition, Qi Lang is quite acceptable that Joanna, a middle-level warrior with good strength, may be absent for a long time.

It's all too easy to understand. Joanna herself had revealed that important information to Qi Lang, and Lieutenant Colonel William wanted her to get as close to Prince Marcus as possible. He wanted to become the father-in-law of the future king, so that his status would become more prominent and his position would become stronger. Felix seems to have no chance, compared to Prince Marcus, in addition to his appearance of more than a hundred times better, his other original advantages are no longer worth mentioning. He couldn't win, with his noble golden hair and handsome face, he couldn't defeat Marcus, and he was doomed to lose this competition.

But Qi Lang doesn't pay too much attention to those things, all he needs is for the existing personnel to step up their training, and not to wash away the true colors of the soldiers for the superficial excitement.

Of course, Qi Lang and those brothers are also redoubling their efforts to train. After Qi Lang informed everyone of the information that Dodim had brought, the four brothers realized the seriousness of the problem, and the nightly private training lasted longer, almost until the barracks lights went out. With Gurf's active cooperation, their training location has been changed to a clearing on the edge of the Black Forest. It is said that there are occasional mutant wolves, so they are inaccessible and the environment is elegant, and as long as the secrecy is done sufficiently, no one can disturb them.

Although Gulf had pat his chest for the new location, when they arrived there that night, they were disappointed to find that Joanna's uninvited guest had been waiting there early. This time, instead of wearing the long white dress, she changed into a leather dress and leather skirt, exactly like she was dressed in training, and looked like she was going to participate in the action.

"I assure you, this time I didn't say it. Before the brothers could speak, Gulf had already defended himself, "I'm like you, I haven't seen her in the past few days. Joanna, you explain a couple of words for me, it's really not my fault. ”

Joanna didn't pay any attention to Gurve's panic, she just stood there with a smug smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was provoking Qi Lang.

Qi Lang stubbornly walked up: "Congratulations, Corporal Joanna, you have caught us." I have a lot of respect for you, you have the qualities of a detective. You're obviously not here to play hide and seek, though, so tell me what you're here for, if you don't mind. ”

"It's nothing, it's just fun. Joanna walked up and stared at Qi Lang with big eyes, "I'm also thinking, I don't know if your secret organization is still short of manpower, do you mind if I am also involved?"

"Welcome! we don't mind!" Gulf exclaimed excitedly, but when he saw the brothers' gazes, he shrank back and muttered in frustration, "I just think we four silly boys are too monotonous, and we often ...... two-on-two when voting"

Qi Lang rubbed his head and tried to keep his tone steady: "Corporal Joanna, this is the Black Forest, not a place for fun, you really shouldn't come out late, and you are alone, it is too dangerous." And I have to warn you, as you can see, we are all rude soldiers on our side, some of whom will swear, some of whom will spit everywhere, and some of whom will even go straight behind the trees when they need to urinate...... It's not for you, I'm telling the truth. ”

Joanna pursed her lips, and she didn't seem to hear a word of what Qi Lang said. She took two more steps forward, almost rushing into Qi Lang's arms. Fortunately, Qi Lang took a step back and kept a safe distance in time.

"I'm just joking with you, are you really serious?" Joanna laughed, her eyes swept over the three brothers behind her, and then focused on Qi Lang's face again, "I came today just to have a conversation with you." I'll leave when I'm done, I promise. ”

The clever Gila pulled Raou and Gulf by the sleeves, and pulled the two stunned young men away with each other, leaving the dangerous situation completely to Qi Lang to take care of himself.

Qi Lang clasped his hands in front of his chest again, and took a step back vigilantly. With the lesson of the previous day, he knew that the eldest lady in front of him was not simple, she probably had countless bad ideas in her head, and if she was not careful, she would fall into her trap: "Okay, two sentences." Tell me about it. ”

"I told you, my dad wants me to marry Marcus. Joanna went straight in and came up with her own housekeeping weapon. It seems that she has studied Qi Lang's strengths and weaknesses, and after a few encounters, she has a clear grasp of this opponent. From this point of view, Qi Lang felt that she was actually a qualified soldier, and even the position of commander could be qualified for it.

The bad feeling has become stronger and stronger, but Qi Lang feels that he should not show weakness so quickly, although it is very likely that he will lose badly, after all, the opponent only has two chances, he should still show all his courage and fight with her, so he replied tentatively: "You both have discussed it? Then, I should congratulate you, you will most likely become the queen in the future...... That was the dream of all the women of the Luman Empire. ”

Joanna's face sank slightly, as if she was suppressing her emotions: "What do you think of Marcus?"

Qi Lang looked a little weak-hearted, and commented on the noble prince, if he was not careful, he was likely to fall into the trap of the other party: "Uh, he is very ...... Noble, this is quite worthy of you. ”

"What about the rest?" asked Joanna further.

Qi Lang coughed and emboldened himself: "Okay, I admit that it would be better if he could lose a little weight." ”

Joanna stared at Qi Lang's eyes seriously for a long time, and never said a word. However, just when Qi Lang wanted to remind her that the prior agreement between the two sentences had arrived, she suddenly said: "I don't like him." ”

"Oh, that's right. Qi Lang was startled, his mind turned several times in an instant, and he always felt that he should continue to avoid her edge, so he cautiously suggested, "Then you should really discuss it with Lieutenant Colonel William, you are father and daughter, and any problem can be solved." But you seem to be on the wrong target now, because I can't help you in this matter. ”

A sly smile appeared at the corner of Joanna's mouth: "I told him. I'll tell you Lieutenant Colonel William that I already have a boyfriend. ”

"Oh, that's exactly what you're supposed to do. Qi Lang didn't hear the overtones of this sentence, and relaxed his vigilance a little carelessly, "You should be brave enough to choose your own destiny, and don't be swayed by your father...... However, this seems to have nothing to do with me, so why did you come and tell me?"

Joanna tilted her chin up, looking confident, and at the same time, the most powerful attack was fully displayed at this moment: "This is necessary, I must communicate with you first--because I told him that the best soldier of our 28th Regimental of the Spiral Force is my boyfriend, and that person is you, my dear Sergeant Qi Lang." He'll be looking for you tomorrow, and I need to prepare you. ”

"Hey!" Qi Lang was almost stunned, "You're fooling around! You're trying to kill me!"
