The wheels of the carriage rolled, the sound of whips sounded loudly, and Xiao Tianming, who was promoted to earl, embarked on his journey.
Exiled in the war zone, he was forced to endure hardships, but Xiao Tianming sat in a carriage and read "General History of the Mainland". The early spring was chilly, with a slight chill, and the carriage was warm and comfortable. A cup of tea and a few pieces of Aina
With pastries made by himself, Xiao Tianming lived a very comfortable life.
Count Xiao Tianming followed the seventh batch of reinforcements to the southeast, mainly transporting combat supplies and escorting noble children to the war zone for gilding. When the transport team returns, it will bring back wounded soldiers and news from the front line. A large group of warriors holding sophisticated swords, holding
Magicians with magic wooden wands, groups of expensive carriages, and powerful and outrageous followers. Although the number of these reinforcements, which numbered about ten thousand, was not large, the quality was astonishingly high.
The war in the Southeast War Zone is stable. In peaceful times, such large-scale wars are very rare, and those with large military escorts without much danger are even rarer. Many nobles who want to gild their family heirs and seize military glory are willing to spend money.
The manpower trust relationship was used through the back door to send the family's most promising heir to the northwest.
Compared with the ferocious and ugly orcs, a group of besieged demons are easier to bully. When the war is over or their heirs have performed meritorious services, they will have reason to send their heirs back to inherit their power. In order to protect these people who were born with a silver spoon in their mouths
The noble young master and a large number of expert guards went out with the army in the name of the "family private army".
It can be said that the combat effectiveness of an ordinary 10,000-person support force is no less than that of a full-strength army. Veterans who have been killing enemies on the battlefield all year round but do not get promotion opportunities usually treat these aristocratic young men who are promoted after just one turn in the war zone.
They were jokingly called "Old Soldiers". Xiao Tianming followed the Old Soldiers, obviously with a sense of contempt. But he was not annoyed, but secretly admired these nobles who only knew how to camp. They made the most correct decision in their lives.
The carriages were rolling, taking the future elites of the empire to the southeast. This was a historic moment.
The wandering motorcade stopped at sunset and was stationed in an ordinary town. The aristocratic gentlemen booked hotels in major hotels, had a delicious meal of medium-rare steak, and took a hot bath early in the morning.
It was time to rest. Occasionally, a few restless young men would run into the tavern and hook up with the most beautiful and wanton women to spend a happy and tiring night.
As for rest? You can sleep in the carriage the next day. Damn the carriage, damn the dirt road, and the dark circles under your eyes from yesterday have not gone away. As for safety? Anyway, there are expert guards sent by the family, so there is no need to worry. The good days pass by.
It is said that the commander of the war zone is an eyesore and will suffer! In fact, these nobles still have complaints in their hearts about the fact that they were sent to the war zone, where no one else could grab a gun.
The real veterans were stationed in dangerous places outside the town, eating hard dry food and sleeping by the campfire and moonlight. They also arranged sentries to guard against enemies that were almost impossible to appear. Everything was no different from ordinary days.
Both. The town can accommodate no less than 10,000 troops, and only the so-called nobles are eligible to stay.
Next to the quiet and solemn military camp, a very disharmonious scene appeared on the earth.
The three luxurious carriages are obviously designed for magicians and noble lords. Look at those flashy patterns and mysterious and powerful magic patterns. Every part has powerful power. A veteran's salary for a year is not as valuable as a wheel.
.
There is a bonfire, two or three wine jars, four or five guards, and seven or eight idlers. Everyone holds the fragrant barbecue and eats it like a hungry ghost.
Xiao Tianming took a knife and cut off a piece of the roasted pig's hind leg meat wrapped in leaves. Just as he was about to put it into his mouth, he found a face in front of him that was full of oil stains and full of desire. He smiled knowingly. The size was just right.
The roasted meat was delivered to the lips that had been waiting for a long time.
"Wow... Brother's baked goods are still so delicious! So delicious!" The girl praised while eating, "It's pitiful, I'm getting fat again, brother, you have to be responsible! Give me another piece, a smaller one..."
Xiao Tianming doted on Xiao Ai's head and rubbed her hair into a mess. There was really nothing he could do about this guy. He cut off a medium-sized piece of barbecue and stuffed it into her mouth. He hadn't taken a bite yet.
"Brother, don't hit me on the head, I will become stupid!" The little girl seemed to be very concerned about this. She covered her head with her right hand and rubbed it, straightening the messy hair, and couldn't resist the temptation and swallowed it in one gulp. As for gaining weight?
What is fat?
Seeing the little girl devouring her brother's food and ignoring the food sent by a group of attentive young men around her, many sophisticated veterans burst into laughter. Innocence is the most beautiful poison.
This is a bonfire party. Xiao Tianming is content with the world of books and peaceful journeys, but a few restless girls from the Dark Spirit Song and Dance Troupe can't take any time off. They jump around and make a mess in the male hormone-excess military camp.
.In the end, they pestered Xiao Tianming to eat barbecue, but Xiao Tianming had no choice but to give in.
"Aina, this is yours." Xiao Tianming chose the best piece of hind leg meat and handed it to Aina who was sitting on the other side. Xiao Ai was tempted by the barbecue and almost squeezed it into his arms.
As one of the best students of Xianqin College this year, Ice Mage Aina has long been recruited by the college and the country to go to the war zone for support. Sometimes, a small ice shield can save the lives of a team of soldiers. As for why
We haven't set off until now, and you can tell by looking at the little girl's eyes lingering on Xiao Tianming's face.
Aina looked at the fragrant golden barbecue beside her mouth and blushed. She usually made food for this bad guy to eat. When had she ever been treated like this? Her eyes were distracted and drifted to Xiao Ai who looked happy.
.
Xiao Tianming misunderstood and cut off a piece of barbecue and brought it to the little girl's mouth. Aina's face became even more rosy. She picked up the barbecue shyly, grabbed the hind leg meat, and ran to the side without turning around.
.In exchange, Xiao Tianming smiled and many diners laughed in good faith.
"Christina, this is yours." Xiao Tianming impartially gave the most delicious part to the girls. Xiao Feng, Xiao Yu and Xiao Dian took it one after another. Xiao Dian enthusiastically gave one to Xiao Tianming in return.
A gentle kiss made this bad guy so beautiful that I don't know where to look. As for Christina, this talented magic girl who can use the blade of darkness at a young age was also sent to gild by her family. She was spotted by Xiao Ai who was running around, so she pulled her over.
.
"Uncle Joseph, come on, this is yours!" Xiao Tianming decisively split open the pork ribs and handed them to the middle-aged uncle who was already eager to try. Uncle Joseph was still maintaining the Sword and Fire mercenary group, running away
I ran the trade route from Kyoto City to Tianlong Fortress, but I didn’t do any dangerous tasks.
When Xiao Tianming set out, he realized that he did not bring a bodyguard. As a noble, it was very rude. The Xiao family did not like to bring bodyguards. It happened that Uncle Joseph was in the imperial capital, so he called him over. The salary was very generous.
It's too much of a risk, so I'm just taking care of this old acquaintance.
There were many new faces around the uncle, as well as old people. All the men who had tasted Xiao Tianming's benefits were salivating, and the newcomers were also yearning for it. After everyone tasted it, their expressions of emotion and happiness spread. They all praised Xiao Tianming.
Outstanding craftsmanship.
Xiao Tianming smiled meaninglessly. As a cook, it is the greatest happiness to let diners eat the food he cooked. He used a sharp knife to divide the remaining ribs into several pieces and Xiao Tianming gave them to him.
To a few veterans who have been impatient for a long time and dare not step forward to snatch it.
These veterans were soldiers who were ordered to escort Xiao Tianming and his party, and they also had relevant commanders. Xiao Tianming felt that life was boring and boring, and there was too much food to eat, so he called them over to join them. There were more people and it was more lively. They also reciprocated.
He took better care of the girls around him, and even Uncle Joseph no longer did the hard work of scouting and sentry.
For Xiao Tianming, this is just a piece of cake. Although he doesn't like to make noise, a group of girls can't stand the pain of the journey, no matter how crowded the crowd is. The veterans are also aware that Xiao Tianming is an earl, but he has no airs.
He is polite, gentle, steady, and modest, and has no weird hobbies. For a young earl, this is already a rare and good quality.
Moreover, the people he was guarding were all powerful magicians who were students of the highest school, Xian Qin Academy, and were children of nobles. In terms of identity, status, and future, he would never be able to come into contact with them in his life. When he came back from the war zone, as long as he
If you are willing to stay in the army, everyone is a high-ranking official and a person who is in control of your own life. It can be said that these people are living gods of wealth. As long as a little sand flows out from between their fingers, it will be enough for them to eat for a lifetime;
Can erase oneself.
Powerful yet humble, bright and righteous, this is the impression left by Xiao Tianming. The veterans have restrained their bad habits. Even if they covet a group of girls who are as beautiful as flowers and jade, who look like gods, they would not dare to do so.
If you go overboard, you will be more respectful and cautious, for fear that the God of Wealth will be angry.
As a result, a group of smart people talked happily, the guests and hosts were happy together, and Xiao Tianming and his party would have a much more comfortable journey in the future.
The meat was fragrant and the wine was strong, and the conversation was lively. Xiao Ai, who had a small belly and had been fed for a long time, jumped up, looked at the bright moon in the sky, looked up at the stars, leaned on Xiao Tianming's shoulder and sang:
The grassland is boundless and the road is long. There is a coachman, frozen in the grassland...
The song is melodious and soothing, but also a little desolate. When people calm down, they seem to see the vast grassland and the tenacious coachman struggling to survive on the line of life and death, with attachment to life and love for his lover.
It fills people with strength and hope in the desolation.
Xiao Tianming's heart moved. This was one of his favorite songs, originating from the Russian folk song "Steppe". Unexpectedly, the song he hummed casually was imitated by the girl who was tired of being in his arms all day long.
It's gone; I didn't expect that humming it in the ancient orc language would have a unique flavor. The bold language sets off the bold lyrics with deep feelings.
Unfortunately, there are still some shortcomings...
