King’s Kingdom

Chapter 22: fiancée.....?

"Great God of War, please bless my son, your faithful believer, so that he can return with a great victory!"

In the dark confession room, a slightly old middle-aged woman knelt on the ground, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and devoutly played at the serious religious painting in front of her.

The tone of the picture is very gloomy. A ray of sunlight penetrates the dark clouds and shines on a tall man whose face cannot be seen clearly. The man is wearing black armor and holding a spear. Behind him is a huge round shield and a golden lion with wings. Lying beside him, this is the most common image of the God of War.

Mrs. Pat's face was full of solemnity, her long black hair was draped across her chest, and her long black hair was mixed with a touch of gray. The successive disappearances of her husband's eldest son and second son caused her to endure great pain. With pressure, a lady in her early fifties should not look like this.

In the fields of the Lanyin Kingdom, the residents are still living step-by-step, weeding and weeding, and gathering firewood, as if the war had not had any impact on their lives, but in fact it was not the case.

No matter how much suffering you endure, life still has to go on, just like the old woman who lost her son. Even if she is in pain, she still has to drink the soup. Is it really just because there is a lot of salt in it?

Without the news from the front line, all the citizens of the Lanyin Kingdom are full of worries. Almost every family has men involved in the war. The Lanyin Kingdom, with a population of just over 200,000 people, has to be a soldier and be on the battlefield. Life no longer belongs to oneself, even if an order goes down, even if there is a sea of ​​swords and flames, you have to rush over.

Everyone understands this. The commoners of the Lanyin Kingdom who believe in the **** of war are even more aware. It is true that they like to advocate war when they hear about war, but no one dares to say that they are not afraid of death. This is the instinct of life, and no exception is made.

Once the men in the family die on the battlefield, then life will undoubtedly become more difficult.

"Pizarro! What are you doing! Immediately put down the wooden sword! Have the weeds in the field been cleaned up? I only know how to play all day!" The peasant woman shouted at a teenager at the top of her voice.

"Mom! This is not playing, it's called combat training from a young age! I will definitely become an excellent soldier in the future. If my family is too poor without a horse, I will definitely become a noble knight in the future!" Salo's boy put on a handsome posture, danced a sword flower and said helplessly.

"Soldiers? Don't you know..." The peasant woman wanted to say something, but she stopped as soon as the words reached her lips, and said helplessly: "I know that you are training yourself, but before you became a soldier, your identity was that of a farmer. Son, the son of a farmer is also a farmer, the farmer's duty is to take care of his land and then pay taxes to His Majesty the King, so if you do the work of a soldier before you finish your job as a farmer, you are not doing your job properly!"

"For the sake of His Majesty the King, do your own job!" The peasant woman put her hands on her hips. The weight of the big basket behind her was really heavy. She was already very tired when she was less than 30 years old, and she could only relieve it with her hands. burden on the waist.

The little boy named Pizarro tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded: "Mom, you are right, before I become a soldier, I will perform my duty well, but when I really become a soldier, I will I won't do these things anymore!"

"Okay, wait until you become a soldier!" The peasant woman nodded helplessly, as if she had heard these words countless times.

Seeing her son's lively figure, the peasant woman's face was full of helplessness, she pursed her lips, and continued to walk towards the house with her waist down.

After all, what she desires more is not for her husband or son to make achievements on the battlefield and fight against the most vicious enemies.

Because of the existence of the **** of abundance and fertility, the yield of food crops is not low. As long as there is enough farmland and hard work, it is not a big problem for the family to live a leisurely and prosperous life.

Although she is also a believer of the God of War, she is only a superficial belief in the final analysis. In other words, except for a small number of people, other women in the world are not very interested in the God of War and the teachings of the God of War.

Only men who are naturally aggressive and yearn for honor and glory are the most loyal believers of the God of War. Most ordinary women just want to live a peaceful and stable life with their families.

Thinking of her husband and father, who fought against the enemy on the battlefield, and who have not heard a single bit of news until now, the peasant woman's face once again filled with worry.

How many are happy and how many are sad? The residents of the entire Lanyin Kingdom are worried, and the messenger of the good news has only left for half a day, so it is naturally impossible for them to know the news of the great victory.

Once belonged to Skrein II, but now belongs to the army tent with Theodosius. The two met again. Unlike before, this time, the four military chiefs under Theodosius also all present.

When the Count of Kamota made a request, Skrein II's expression was as if he had seen a ghost with his own eyes.

Oh no, he didn't have such a big reaction when he saw a ghost. It's a fact.

"You mean, you want to take all of such a big piece of land?" Skrein II almost didn't think about it, and he couldn't care about it when he was in the enemy camp. I would never agree to such a ridiculous request!"

"Are you sure?" Count Kamota stood up suddenly and looked at Skrein II with a burning gaze, the threat of UU reading www.uukanshu.com was self-evident.

"That's right! Even if you want to kill me, I can only give you this answer!" Skrein II refused to give up an inch of land. If he cut out such a large piece of land, it would not be hurtful to describe. , don't talk about great achievements at that time. It is already a huge luxury to keep the throne and life. Instead of losing everything, he might as well choose to die now, and then his reputation will be better.

Seeing that his attitude was so determined, everyone looked at each other in dismay, Theodosius nodded for the unobservable looking for Count Camota, and he immediately understood.

Under a coercion and inducement, Skrein II finally relented and agreed to cede 320,000 square kilometers of land to Theodosius, but added that Theodosius had to accept one-third of the land. conditions of the minister.

For the sake of the land, Theodosius naturally didn't take this trivial matter to heart. That is, the Lanyin Kingdom has no fiefdoms and noble capitals. Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible to flatten and round everything by relying on the Kingdom's Fengyun system?

As a result, the land of the Lanyin Kingdom suddenly increased sharply, reaching 650,000 square kilometers, which can be called a vast country.

In a good mood, Theodosius immediately ordered the army to prepare the ingredients. All the delicious delicacies of the Northern Empire fell into the hands of the Lan Yin army. For a while, all kinds of aromas mixed together, and the mellow aroma of the wine moved his index finger.

Just as Theodosius was enjoying a meal with the soldiers in the open-air banquet hall, a guard ran over and whispered in his ear.

"The hussars? What are they doing here?" Theodosius was puzzled.

And Count Camota, who was sitting beside him, heard his lord's words, widened his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, isn't it your fiancee? If it's her, it's quite possible!"
