Chapter 820: You're My Brother!
All encounters in the world are reunions after a long absence. What leaves a mark is nothing more than time......
The middle-aged man who suddenly appeared was naturally Tang En, and as for the traces, of course it was not the slightly frosty temples. But it's only been a year since I saw him, and the 'heartless' Don is certainly not in love.
The so-called traces are only the difference in the identity and temperament of the two......
Today's Tang En is no longer the mysterious leader of the gray space that made the gray army feel both fearful and fearful, and proud and glorious. If Tang En's reputation was mixed before, then his reputation in the gray army is undoubtedly rotten.
The death of Losha, the destruction of Dawning City, etc., in fact, in a strict sense, cannot be relied on by Don. However, now that this causal relationship has been deeply planted in the hearts of the gray-clothed soldiers, even if Josia maneuvers through it, this black pot Tang En has also made up his mind, and he doesn't have to think about taking it off in a short time......
It is precisely because of this that Don chose to come in disguise, and Josia also ordered everyone to retreat at the first time. This state will always be maintained if there are no accidents, except for a few people such as Frey and Skinny Monkey, no one in the Gray Army knows Donne's true identity. Well, the name of Ni Lao Bang will always be on Tang En's head.
It's not that he is helpless and aggrieved, Don En's attitude towards the Gray Army is already weak, if it weren't for his female brothers, Josia, Frey and others, he wouldn't have had time to deal with this rebel group without acquaintances such as Luo Sha and Zofan......
Compared with the change of Donne's identity, Josia's change is mainly reflected in his temperament.
I haven't seen it for a year. Today's Josia has lost the innocence of the noble lady at the beginning. In its place is the majesty of being in a high position. It's like a natural thing.
What he said just now was naturally a joke, and Donn's eyesight was so brilliant, despite the heavy armor, he could still see that Josia was much thinner and haggard than before, and his gestures, frowning and squinting, all had a sense of being burdened with heavy responsibilities and being sharpened and flexible after thousands of blows. It's heart-wrenching to be strong!
Time is a knife to kill pigs, the knife breaks the bones and kills the heart, and no one can stay out of it.
Of course. There are occasional exceptions.
In the grand hall, the light was quiet, and Don and Josia hugged each other tightly, without words and without words. There is always an emotion that can break free from the shackles of time, cross all kinds of boundaries, and go straight to the other side!
It's like a pot of good wine, time can only make it more distant and mellow.
I don't know how long it was, until a few deliberate coughs broke the silence. "Ahem...... is a skinny monkey who touches his nose. The look couldn't help but be a little helpless and embarrassed. Don and Josia wander in a no-man's land, and he, the only outsider, seems redundant. Of course, he coughed not to show his sense of existence, but to clearly hear footsteps outside the door.
Naturally separated, under the gaze of the thin monkey who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Josia's eyes drooped slightly, and there were no tears in his expression of the children who had been reunited for a long time, but he was a little shy. Well, it's really grown a lot!
Of course, Tang En's face was thicker, he laughed twice, reached out and hugged the thin monkey heavily, and looked at it separately: "Long time no see, big brother thin monkey...... Yo, look at you like this, you have been promoted and made a fortune, hehe, you will have to cover my little brother in the future. ”
Frey, as a formal general and quasi-marshal, and the old brothers such as the thin monkey naturally followed the tide, and they knew that they were partial generals or something when they looked at the armor style. However, as soon as he rolled his eyes, the thin monkey said stupidly: "Cover a fart, it's just a mess of food under your woman's hands." ”
"That's it......" Tang En's face sank, and his murderous intent overflowed, "Then why don't you be polite to me, be careful that I blow the wind on the pillow and destroy you in minutes!"
"Uh......" Josia burst into tears.
"You guy......" This killing intent is real, and the thin monkey was also frightened, and after reacting, he couldn't help but open his mouth, and sighed, "It's really still so shameless!"
"Haha, let me go!" Tang Enxi patted the thin monkey's shoulder with a smile, nodded slightly, and didn't say much.
Although the scene just now was short, the thin monkey desperately waved his gun to block it, just so that Josia could successfully retreat in a moment. Of course, Don has reason to thank the thin monkey, but it would be hypocritical to say these thanks, just kidding, and if you find a chance to drink wine in the future, you will also expose it on the surface and keep it in your heart.
The thin monkey chuckled back and slapped Donn's chest, his heart was also not very calm.
In this world, martial arts are respected, and a big fist is the last word. Whether it is a brother, a friend, or even a father and son, even if the relationship between the two was close in the past, after the gap in strength has been infinitely widened, the relationship between them is unlikely to return to the previous state. It is not uncommon for each other to be alienated at least and draw swords against each other at worst. But it is clear that Don is not such a person, and when we meet again, we still talk and laugh freely, and our words are unscrupulous......
Knock knock, after a few jokes, the door of the main hall was knocked courteously, and then it was pushed open, and a few people who had just entered the city with Tang En walked in.
"Brother Donn, your disguise is simply amazing!" Josia and the thin monkey stared at a few people and looked at each other, knowing that these were acquaintances, but they didn't know each other in person, so they couldn't help it. Sighing again, the thin monkey hesitated, shook his head and gave up, and looked at Tang En.
Tang En chuckled when he saw this, and secretly put his mind at ease. It's very simple, if even acquaintances such as Josia and Skinny Monkey can't see this disguise, then it's okay, and he waved his hand to the big man who smiled first: "This is David." ”
"Ha, I knew it wasn't who you were with this giggle. The skinny monkey took a few steps forward, laughed and opened his arms to hug David. The latter pursed his lips and hammered his back dissatisfiedly: "Brother, you are purely farting after the fact, it doesn't count...... I've seen Josia, uh, Chief, long time no see. ”
"Hehe, what's the matter, I haven't seen you for a while?" Hearing David call the leader, Josia raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile. David scratched his head when he heard this, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he habitually laughed a few times.
"This is Luke, Samu......" Donn waved his hand one by one, all members of the first phase of Gray Space. If nothing happens, they will be dealing with the Grey Army in their current form. Now it's a familiar face.
They are all brothers in life and death who once crawled out of the collapsed mine. The thin monkeys also stepped forward to hug them one by one. Until the last emaciated figure with a black hat on his head. The corners of Don's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a little solemnity: "This is Miss Lena!"
"Oh, it's Lena...... Uh, miss?" The arm was hugged, paused in mid-air, the thin monkey blinked inexplicably, is there such a person in the gray space of the dark road? I didn't come back to my senses for a while.
"Skinny, skinny monkey brother? Hello to the first meeting. Calling this strange nickname, Lena bowed quietly, then looked up at Josia behind her, chuckled and nodded, "Miss Josia, meet again." ”
Seeing that it was a woman, the thin monkey naturally couldn't hold it anymore, so he withdrew his arm in embarrassment and sneered: "Hehe." Hello Miss Lena. That, I'm a rough man. I was offended just now...... Huh?" The words paused for a moment, but a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and the thin monkey's expression immediately turned abrupt, and half of his body was numb. After a moment, Fang stiffened and turned his head to look at Don, "Lina...... Which Lena? That Lena?"
The question was very clueless, but Don En already understood the meaning, and nodded with a smile.
"Huh......" took a deep breath, and the thin monkey looked solemn when he saw this, took a half step back, slammed, and knelt down on one knee to salute, "I'm sorry, Miss Lena, I really offended just now!" After a pause, he said categorically, "Well, on behalf of the Gray Army, I would like to pay the highest respect to Miss Lena, thank you for the purple rifled cannon you have researched." This is really important to us!
"Ahh
Tang En did not step forward to dissuade him, but watched with a smile as the thin monkey leaned over and bowed slightly.
The birth of every battlefield killing weapon is inevitably accompanied by an endless sea of blood and souls in the sky. So is it necessary to say that the weapon makers are bloody executioners? Actually, at least not at all!
This is just the nonsense of those ignorant people who stay out of the way and like to stand on the moral high ground. Subjective and objective, no disease moaning word play only. Weapons are iron-blooded and ruthless, causing countless killings. But for the beneficiaries of the invention, it is also the compassionate gaze cast by the gods, and there are countless living people!
In Donn's opinion, Lena deserves such a great gift. Because of the improved purple-chested cannon, it has already destroyed several Bran cities and killed countless Bran soldiers...... From another point of view, this is to save countless gray soldiers who should have fallen because of the siege, this is merit!
Narrow-minded, unfair, unreasonable, hehe, not to say that things in the world are never fair. What kind of fair truth is it for you to let a space mage not use the hard-learned space means, but rely only on two legs to race against the warrior?
Again, a digression. Obviously it's just a person, how can he overlook all living beings and have a saint's mentality of compassion - hypocrisy!
Seeing that the ceremony was over, Tang En stepped forward to support the thin monkey's shoulders and said with a smile: "Hehe, big brother the thin monkey, it's almost there, see how scared Lena ......"
"Uh, no, no, no, you don't know...... thin monkey's eyes were slightly red, and his expression was extremely excited, "You don't know, you don't understand, the effect of this purple rifled cannon on our army soldiers, that's, it's just, it's ......" His hands opened as hard as he could, intending to create a huge effect that had been brewing in his mouth several times but had not been able to successfully express it.
"I know, I understand...... It's a bunker!, yes, I still know it...... Hey, you get up and speak first. Shaking his head helplessly, looking at the thin monkey who was in a state of expulsion, Tang En could only forcibly reach out and set it up, sit on the wooden chair next to him, smack his lips, and divert the topic, "Calm down, Brother Thin Monkey, I also brought a gift this time, you are so excited now, what should I do next." ”
"Gift?" Josia on the side walked over and grabbed Lena's palm, and turned her head in surprise.
"That's ...... Well, this is Cold Water City?" Tang En looked at the huge map on the wooden table beside him, especially the two cities of Cold Water and Kusai that were highlighted, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, shook his head and smiled, "Hehe, it's really a coincidence." ”
As the words fell, he looked up at David. The latter nodded, took out a tiger head card that looked like gold silk wood from his bosom, and a white scroll tied tightly with a red ribbon, and placed them on the table.
"The Tiger Roaring Legion's troop transfer token and paperwork!" "The thin monkey is also a veteran who has been on the front line for many years, so he naturally recognizes these two things, and can't help but shout.
"To be precise, it's a clerical token for transferring troops to Coldwater City. Don shrugged at Josia's surprised and delighted gaze, "I took it on the road, so it was delayed for a few days...... Isn't it important? Haha, it seems that I still have some strategic vision. ”
That's not just important! With these two things, there is a lot of work that can be done. For example, with these two things, he raided deeply, pretending to be a soldier of the Tiger Roar Legion to deceive the gates of Coldwater City...... Of course, it won't be so idealistic in practice, but it's always a great opportunity. And on the battlefield, as long as the commander is not brainless, this basically represents a big victory!
The heavy choices that plagued everyone for a morning, and the key battle that determined the direction of the next hundred-mile battle, was solved so lightly...... Josia and Skinny Monkey looked at the token paperwork, and for a moment felt quite unreal.
After a long time, Tang En looked at the two who were speechless, and touched his nose: "Do you like it, this gift...... Send it from afar, so let's give it a good review, Skinny Monkey Big Brother ......"
Before the words fell, the thin monkey who came back to his senses jumped up from the chair like a rabbit with an arrow, grabbed Don's arm tightly, and his tone trembled with excitement: "Don't say anything, from today onwards - you are my brother!"
"Huh?"
