Lord Helanza

Winter nights always come very early.

When the sunset was silent among the mountains, a huge shadow quickly swallowed every inch of the land in the valley.

The sky is getting dark, and stars are gradually embedded in the night sky.

Supper is actually fried fish. Surdak feels that there are very few opportunities to eat fish in Helanza. There are no lakes here, so you rarely see fish.

After entering the winter, these marine fish are transported from coastal fishing boats to the port, and each will be frozen hard, and then transported to the inland provinces of the Grimm Empire by four-wheeled trucks or magic airships. Therefore, Only in this season can you eat sea fish.

In previous years, caravans would never transport marine fish to Desolate Land, because the merchants knew that the poor people of Wall Village could not afford marine fish, but this year is different from previous years, whether it’s ale, Or butter and cheese, the villagers of Wall would buy a little from the merchant and taste it.

Fortunately, some frozen fish came this time. Natasha and Rita decided to buy them home and try them.

When frying fish, there are only peppercorns and salt. The fish made has a faint fishy smell, but it is little Peter's favorite.

The wheat cakes were also burnt and crispy, and with the sour plum sauce, it was so delicious that Peter almost bit his tongue.

Old Sheila looked at Surdak who was picking up a fishbone from Peter, and the grudges in her heart had begun to slowly disappear... He traveled all the way to Wall Village, just for the first time he was on the battlefield. Commitment.

Every year in Wall Village, some youngsters take to the battlefield because of their military service. At least half of them will become cannon fodder on the battlefield and never return to their hometown. These young infantry warriors fully interpret the cannon fodder. Meaning. Therefore, it is normal for the villagers on Desolate Land to die on the battlefield. Old Sheila just prays earnestly every day, hoping that her son can return safely...

Old Sheila even felt that her prayers must be not pious enough to become like this...

...

After dinner, Surdak held a cup of lemon tea, Zhang Desolate Land’s map was spread on the coffee table, considering which village the paving team would build the cement road to first, he first connected the charcoal pencils between Wall Village and Pustule Mountain, and then in Pustule Mountain and Pug. The mountain range periphery zone on the southern foot of Mount Lost is connected in a line. These concrete roads have been opened by the kobold slaves. Next, Surdak plans to extend the road to the northwest of Desolate Land...

Charcoal drew a big cross on the edge of the desert as the sheriff of Desolate Land. Before he followed the Marquis Luther to the plane to change defenses, he had to deal with the bandits in the desert in front of him.

He was sitting on the lounge chair by the glass window of the bedroom, looking at the starry sky above his head, and wondering if he would go to Helanza city tomorrow to share a mercenary group and come back.

The fireplace is in the living room downstairs, but there is a flue passing through the bedroom, so the room is also very warm. Surdak only wore a cotton shirt, thinking about what the old village chief said when he left. .

The old village chief heard that Surdak was preparing to build a cavalry battalion. In the spring, he would follow the Legion of the Marquis of Luther to garrison the plane of White Forest.

Being able to ride in this war chariot of the Marquis of Luther, naturally Surdak has a marriage contract, mainly because the Marquis of Luther wants Surdak to take advantage of this opportunity to earn some merits, and nobles can earn merits only when they go to the battlefield. , In order to be promoted to the title, after all, a small Baron married the marquis's daughter, the status gap is slightly larger.

The cavalry battalion with the official designation of the Empire is eligible to recruit some recruits. These recruits can be registered at the Helanza Logistics Department and then perform four-year military service in the Surdak Cavalry Battalion.

The old village chief first thought of the youngsters in the village who were of the right age but had not yet served in the military. He hoped that Surdak could select some of these youngsters. Although they were young and had no combat experience, they were worth training. After retiring in the future, it can become the backbone of Desolate Land.

It turned out to be a change of defense on the plane of Bailin. This errand is obviously a kind of reward in disguise. There is no danger in itself, and those who are capable can earn some merit...

Surdak’s original idea was to recruit some veterans with rich combat experience and return to the battlefield as an employment situation. He did not miss the mercenary salary. Such a cavalry battalion would have battle strength, but the village of Bright Chang’s proposal made him somewhat change his mind. He thought that if he did not recruit these youngsters in the village and let them obey the dispatch of the Helanza City Quartermaster Logistics Department, then he was destined to be stuffed into a certain heavy armor step. The regiment acts as cannon fodder. The battle damage rate of this infantry regiment is Ranked 1st among all services.

There were already very few males in the village, so he scratched his hair a little annoyed.

Natasha walked to Surdak’s feet holding the silver plate that had been filled with warm water, placed the silver basin on the floor, and squatted down gently to help Surdak take off the military boots on her feet, and then Rolled up the trousers so that his feet were soaked in the warm water, lifted up the water and poured it on his calf.

Surdak took the opportunity to sit up, cooked Natasha's pretty face with both hands, and kissed her soft lips.

Natasha's face instantly changes red, while resisting while whispered: "The door hasn't closed yet..."

She is strong and flexible, avoiding Surdak's hands and turning around quickly I walked to the door and closed the door. I blushed and walked to the side of the couch again, squatted down and put my hands into the warm water basin, and grabbed Surdak's callous feet, these feet. Because of wearing these tough military boots for a long time, her toes were compressed and deformed, and she rubbed those feet with her hands without a word.

Surdak extend the hand, drew fingers along her side face to the chin, lifted her chin with two fingers, looked at Natasha’s blue sea eyes seriously, and moved his forehead Press gently on her forehead.

Dry her feet with linen cloth, Natasha took away the water basin, and then she and Surdak squeezed on a slightly narrow recliner. She was wearing a long skirt with a low-cut neckline and lying down. After coming down, a large area of ​​white skin was exposed to Surdak's sight. She stretched out an arm to cover her eyes with a little shyness, not daring to meet Surdak's fiery eyes.

A kiss is like a small flame that ignites from the bottom of my heart. It can silently confide my longing and love...

"You will not leave us behind , Isn't it?" Natasha's eyes became sparkling, and she asked Surdak quietly.

Surdak stroked Natasha's brocade-like smooth back, and said to her: "Of course, I am here to continue his life and the original promise. I will always take good care of him. You, I also want to take good care of this village. Now that I have become the sheriff of Desolate Land, perhaps I have a heavier responsibility on my shoulders. I also want to protect every inch of land on Desolate Land. This is my responsibility. "

Natasha's lips curled up, her hands wrapped around Surdak's neck...

...

The old village chief moved very fast, probably Last night, we mobilized the villagers of the right age in the village and gave everyone a very tempting salary. Each person has one Silver Coin per day and he also manages three meals a day. In the past this season, the villagers in Wall Village followed the old ones. The village head cut wood in a certain forest farm to earn some money to subsidize the family. Therefore, the villagers responded positively to the old village head’s proposal.

Moreover, there are that many four-wheeled carriages in the village. These carriages can be used to transport volcanic ash. Most people in the village will rush to the carriage. This is not tiring, and you can make a fortune in this cold winter, 2nd day In the morning, a large number of villagers gathered on the square in the village. In order to be able to receive double salaries, some villagers even pulled up the teenagers who had just participated in the adult ceremony this fall.

According to the laws of the Grimm Empire, as long as you participate in the rite of passage, you can no longer be regarded as a teenager. It should be a new batch of youngsters.

But this time the old village chief made another decision that made some villagers dissatisfied, that is, all the youngsters in the village who did not perform military service were not eligible to participate in the village road construction team.

These youngsters, regardless of their age, have to participate in the winter training team in Wall Village from now on to cope with the recruitment of soldiers in the spring. Joining the cavalry battalion prepared by Surdak, even if the youngsters who fail the election cannot join the cavalry battalion, they must at least have some combat expertise, so that when they are serving in the military, the logistics quartermaster does not even need to think about them and throw them into the cannon fodder regiment.

The old village chief’s idea is very simple. He thinks that no matter what, since it is a cavalry camp built by Surdak, if the youngsters in the village can pass Surdak’s approval, they can at least be treated equally, and... ... Cavalry battalion, this can be a cavalry, not the cannon fodder Legion of the heavy armored infantry regiment!

Regarding the internal information, the old village chief did not show any words, and against the dissatisfaction of some villagers, he quickly formed a road repair team in Wall Village, and drove more than 30 four-wheelers on the same day. carriage, along the first concrete road of Desolate Land, deep into the area covered by the volcanic ash of Pyobao Mountain, continuously transporting trucks of volcanic ash to the planned new road.

As soon as construction started on this side of Wall Village, the villagers from neighboring villages ran to the old village chief and applied to join the road construction team.

In this regard, the old village chief resolutely refused. He carried the volcanic ash to build roads in the winter under the north wind and snow. The most important reason was that he wanted to find something for the villagers to do so as to prevent them. With great energy, the village was tumultuous, and as for the chaos in other villages, he didn't have that ability... and he couldn't take care of it.

After thinking about it, the old village chief felt that it was the silvery silver that made these simple villagers look different.

The old village chief brought together some youngsters in the village who were of the right age but did not perform military service. Under the active call of the old village chief, a temporary winter training team was finally established, in order to make everyone active To participate, Surdak promised that the training team will provide free breakfast and lunch every day, and the recruitment of the training team is not limited to Wall Village, as long as the villagers in Desolate Land have not served in the military can join.

Andrew and Samira temporarily serve as instructors of the training team. They are not like Surdak who let go of those in the militia camp. On the first day, they pulled the team that has been less than ten people into the cold. In the heavy snow, they let them run lifelessly until they vomited all the food in their stomachs, and finally fell exhausted in the snow. The first day of training was over, and three youngsters asked the old village chief to withdraw. Winter camp.

The old village chief sighed slightly and did not stop him. He just stood on the steps and turned to ask other youngsters: "Which one of you still wants to quit? No matter who it is... you can leave at any time. "

The other seven youngsters were a little stronger, gritted their teeth and did not choose to quit.

The youngsters in the surrounding villages heard that the village of Wall had formed a winter training team and provided free breakfast and lunch to all members participating in the training camp, and then asked the conditions for joining:'As long as it is Desolate Land and youngsters who have not served in the military can participate without the test. '

So on the 2nd day, there were more than 50 youngsters in Wall Village who were not in military service. That day, Andrew led the team. This guy led the team to practice in the field. The only goal was to let everyone run. When you are exhausted and can't stand it, no one will stop you withdrawing directly.

Until the seventh day, no youngsters finally joined the training team. These days, Andrew took this group of youngsters almost every day to run wildly in the wild...

It is said that this Only the youngster who persists in the intensive training can get Andrew's next teaching on several combat stances.

In seven days, there were more than 150 youngsters gathered in the training team. There was an opportunity to recruit so many youngsters at once. Surdak also didn't expect. In a difficult environment, the physical fitness of these youngsters is still They are all good, and their psychological qualities are also very good, at least strong enough.

……

While Andrew and Samira were busy training these youngsters in Wall Village, Surdak made a special trip to Helanza City.

Aphrodite returned to Helanza City with the carriage, and the horses drawn from Pena City. Although there were only more than 30 horses, Surdak needed a special trip to Helanza City to meet them. Surdak is also preparing to recruit a mercenary group in Helanza City, who has the courage to follow them into the desert to hunt down the band of bandits. It is best to have an eagle eye that can handle the complex terrain of the desert...

He did not ride through the rugged oak forest on the mountain road, but Aphrodite happened to come to Helanza and asked her to summon herself over...

Recently, he seems to have been accustomed to this convenience Way of airborne.

The mountain top of Helanza city is already covered with snow, and the city of Helanza located on the mountainside is also hidden in the mountain scenery.

Walking out of the Void Portal, he gave Aphrodite a big hug, and said repeatedly: "It's hard all the way, all the hard work!"

Looking at from the magic array When Surdak came out, Aphrodite couldn't help but roll his eyes, thanking Surdak for the slightest remaining unmoved......
