Conquest

    Chapter 123—a trace of compassion

    Ruhr laughed, and immediately said: "You are a rookie that comes out of this, no power, no experience, no helper, a light pole commander, it is simply the best goal of these guys who want to go crazy." It is. Who are you looking for? Hey, I reminded you yesterday, I don’t care if you don’t care, I don’t want to continue, I want you to suffer a bit, you will understand…However, I did not expect that this time they would do so excessively. ”

    Suddenly, Chubby whispered: "Well, in fact, some people like you, the things you encountered are not so exaggerated, but this time, someone deliberately finished you. You think, although you don’t have any power, it’s a military officer who is in the army! If it is in the past, if someone else is a military person, and you don’t dare to do too much, even if you really knock down you, your colleagues in the army will avenge you. The reputation of Rhodelia Cavalry Army is not so good. . Just this time…I tell you the truth, you came to Imperial Capital this time. The news broke out ten days before you arrived. The military deliberately and unintentionally released the news: After you come, what other people are doing to you, the military Regardless of! understand? ”

    Shaar was so angry that he fired.

    "Actually, you are not incompetent."Chubby thought for a moment: "You are now sandwiched between the military and the emperor, I am afraid that there is no giant aristocrat dare to solicit you. Your own power is too bad, the foundation is too shallow, and you may not find a few helpers. Mmm…The best way is to become aristocrat! Hēi hēi, to become aristocrat, the imperial law is to protect aristocrat. With the aristocrat title, you have the right to reject challenges from civilians that you don't want to accept, and are not considered to be detrimental. Unless the opponent is also aristocrat, challenge you, you should not be considered to be confessed. You will have to meet you this time, and you will be able to meet you with an aristocrat title, so you will have to endure for a few days, and once you get the aristocrat title, you can stop a lot. ”

    "How many days?!"Shaar rolled his eyes: "Don't Father have a meal for a few days, don't sleep, and haven't even had time to go to the bath and toilet?"

    Chubby smiled: "Reassured, I deliberately gave you a lesson last night. Today I will send a team to protect you. Hey, there is a team of guards around, your days are too much. ”

    Shaar snorted and yelled at Chubby: "Well, you chubby actually played me together, hehe!"

    Chubby hēi hēi smiled: "You better not offend me, otherwise, Father will withdraw the horse, and you will slowly squat in the next few days."

    Shaar really stunned and didn't dare say anything more.

    Seeing the hillbilly eating, chubby laughed and was very proud.

    With Ruhr's team of guards on the side, Shaar was cleaned up, went back to take a bath and change clothes, and after a meal, at noon, Ruhr took Shaar to the Emperor's Department to report.

    The Emperor Department is located in the eastern part of Osgiliath, passing through the central square and the Grand Arena in Osgiliath City. It runs east through a long street called Glory Avenue, and the end of the Long Street is the Imperial Department.

    From afar, the roads are lined with two towering evergreen pines, the gray slate paving surface, wide and solemn, the long street is very quiet, only the patrol soldiers who occasionally came from far away And hooves.

    The military area is very large, the periphery of a huge square around is the long column of the forest, with a low wall stacked connection, the gate fluttering on the Imperial Eagle Military Flag, the door of the two teams wearing iron armor guards holding a knife axe forest, under the leadership of the Ruhr, Shaar into the military of the military square , the middle of the square is a huge fountain, a giant stone carving up to five or six meters in the middle of the pool, with a horse riding Pentium, holding the reins and holding the sword in one hand.

    When Ruhr walked with Shaar, he unconsciously straightened his back and his face was solemn, and he glanced at the statue with a revered look.

    Shaar thinks that the General on the statue is a bit weird, the armor of the body is broken, and even the horse's body is covered with scars. In the rushing, with a tragic and tragic taste – since it is a statue, why not perfect it. Some, what do you do so?

    Glanced at it, Shaar saw the bottom of the huge statue on the base, and the front side was stoned with a sentence, written in Byzantine.

    "The way to conquer, endless!"

    With a quirky mind, Shaar walked into the main building of the military with Ruhr: a circular building that looked like a historical vicissitude. From the outside, this building is like a huge bird's nest that has been magnified numerous times. The elliptical-shaped building is more than ten meters high, much higher than the ordinary city wall. The blue and black boulder is piled up and surrounded. There are more than a dozen tall spires in a circle, which looks like a giant bunker.

    "Here is the 'Eagle's Nest', the military department of the Empire."When Chubby led Shaar into the building's gate, he took out a pass file, and several warriors in the doorway wearing armor-covered linen robes immediately bowed their chests.

    Going in is a huge hall. The ground is a large marble with spots. The boots are slamming on it. Chubby leads Shaar to a table at the end of the hall and tells the people inside. What?

    Soon, the reception officer came out.

    Waiting for a moment, a seemingly thin officer came out from the inside, wearing the uniform of the Byzantine Army. From the military rank, it was a flagship of the Flag Battalion class. After seeing Shaar's documents, the officer squeezed a smile on his face. Come, the smile seems to be stubborn, and Shaar always feels that the other person's eyes are a little cold and hostile.

    "His Shaar Thunder Platoon Leader."After the officer confirmed Shaar's identity, he took Shaar to a room behind the hall and took out two documents: "Please sign at the bottom, after the report, the military will quickly verify your achievements and the report on the battle. Describe the authenticity, and your award will be made as soon as possible…Well, and at this moment, the military position of your 13th Army Platoon Leader has been revoked, and your new appointment will be released soon. We will arrange accommodation for you…Or you leave an address, there are new orders, we will send someone to convey yours. ”

    Shaar refused the residence arranged by the military based on Ruhr's confession on the way. He was joking. Now there are too many people in the military who want to bite a piece of meat. How dare they live in the place where the military arranges? ?

    He looked at the two documents carefully, then signed his own name and pressed the fingerprints.

    The officer smiled coldly, stood up, forced a military service, looked at Shaar, and said with insincere sigh: "I personally pay tribute to your outstanding performance on the front line."

    When he finished, he looked at the door, meaning: You can get out.

    Shaar clearly felt that the other party's attitude was not friendly. He was too lazy to waste time here and quickly went out.

    Ruhr, who was waiting in the outer hall, looked at Shaar and whispered: "Don't ignore these guys. There are so many warships in the military. The guys have long humiliated the glory of the Empire Eagle Flag."

    Shaar doesn't matter: "What are we doing now?"

    "Go back and wait."Ruhr shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Welcome to the military's awards, and wait for the emperor's call." I estimate that the military's award may still have some days, but the next call will soon come. Once you see you, you get a reward for the aristocrat title, and your hardships will end. ”

    Shaar sighed, and there was some distress in his heart: "The true grievances of this day are not as good as the Primal Wildfire."

    Ruhr couldn't help but smile. He walked out with Shaar and walked to the door of the hall. He heard a cry behind him: "Ruhr!!"

    Looking back, I saw a person with a tall military officer in a passage on the other side of the hall, wearing military uniforms and boots, but did not wear any military rank badge.

    This person looks like he is in his forties, with a brown curly hair, a short cut, a sharp look, a square face, a smile on his face, a well-formed beard on his lips, and his eyes full of pleasure and With a smile, the big step quickly came over. First, he used a bear hug for Chubby Ruhr, then pushed Ruhr away and slammed it on his chest: "Ha! Your obese rabbit has been gone for a long time! ”

    Ruhr rubbed licked his chest and smiled bitterly: "You Mad Dog, still like to beat people."

    Then Chubby introduced Shaar: "General Green, nicknamed Mad Dog, and I am a classmate of the Imperial Academy – well, and a good candidate for Duke Minas."After a pause, I added: "Eagle, own person."

    Shaar immediately noticed.

    Green smiled a little: "What General, hey, I am no longer General. Ruhr, I am just a freelance instructor at the military academy. ”

    Ruhr laughed, squeezing his eyes at Shaar and whispering: "When this guy was fighting in the East four years ago, he almost cut the Emperor's Minister Moriac Count…"

    "Oh, just almost."Green cold and cold: "Unfortunately, I didn't really kill the greedy mouse."

    Ruhr looked around and frowned. "Green, you are still so reckless, go, this is not the place to talk!"

    The three walked a few steps outside, and Ruhr pointed to Shaar. "You guess who this kid is? Oh, he is Shaar. ”

    "Oh?"Green's eyes lit up, carefully looked at Shaar's eyes, his eyes showed a sincere smile, and then stood up straight and made a chest-chest ceremony: "Kid, I heard that you did a good job on the front line!" Good! ”

    This statement is much more sincere to the military officer's "to pay tribute", and I heard that this guy actually almost cut off the chief corrupt minister of the imperial party, how many points in Shaar's mind Respected.

    Oh, and one more thing.Forgot to introduce, Green also served in the 13th Army for two years, but that was a lot of things many years ago, and almost became the General of the Rhodelia Cavalry Army, but unfortunately…Later, it was transferred midway because of some accidents. ”Chubby felt a lot.

    Green laughed and looked at Ruhr: "Now you are the General of the 13th Army. How do you feel about leading an iron army?"

    Chubby snorted and smiled bitterly: "Okay, you know what I am like…Oh, don't say this. ”

    The three people walked out of the building and went to the square outside.

    Ruhr smiled on the way: "I came to Imperial Capital for a few days, but I didn't see you. Where did you die?"

    Green's face is a bit stunned: "Where can I go…In this war, I played more than a dozen reports, and the request adjusted me to the front line. Even if I was a garrison officer or even a Platoon Leader, I would like to, but no one cares about me. I ordered that I bring a new student, went to the east to practice, and came back yesterday. I came to the military to cover my life…Hum

    Ruhr saw Green's depression, patted him and smiled: "Okay, at least you are doing something real. It’s better than some other brothers who have been demoted and left in other places. It’s good to train some more blood in the military academy. ”

    Green's eyes lit up, and with a bit of spirit, he smiled proudly: "That is natural, and the people I bring out will not humiliate Duke Minas!"

    But then the face is a glimpse, whispered: "Just, after these boys graduated, they don't know the above mixed balls, they will put them in those corners…Hey, I have seen much more these years, and the blood has cooled down. So many excellent officers who graduated every year have been thrown into the north of the world, waiting to slowly rust, there is a blood, but…Seriously, I really have something to ask you…You became the General of the 13th Army. You also have a few special quotas in your hand. I have a few good young people in my hand. I want to find a way to get you there. I promise to be the best officers of the first class! ”

    Chubby frowned, he sighed and hesitated: "I don't help me…However, now the above restrictions on our hawks are more and more restrictive…There are not many places in my hand. Well, I don’t dare to say more, ten! I promise to find ten places for you, even if it is a bodyguard. When I am a normal cavalry, I will get it first. After that, I will find a chance to slowly pick it up…Eh…

    Green brows a twist, then immediately sighed: "Well, ten will be ten, better than no. The present world…Hum

    Both of them were gloomy, and Shaar next to them was stunned and could only follow a word.

    Going to the statue of the pool in the middle of the square, Green suddenly stood up and pointed at the statue. He said with indignation: "If the soul of the ancestors knows, the emperor who knows the glory he created is now like this. I am afraid it will…"

    Chubby hēi hēi sneer, look at the sentence on the base of the stone sculpture, "the way to conquer, endless!"This sentence, holding the shirt, silent for a while, then opened: "Conquering…Hey, now the emperor team, and the strength of the external conquest. ”

    The solid eagle's solider looked at each other and saw a faint despair from the other's eyes. They turned their faces and finally turned around. They stood straight against the huge statue and stood up. Standing tall, he solemnly performed a military ceremony.

    At this moment, even the cynical chubby, in the face, seems to carry a trace of grief…
