King's Landing in France

Chapter 119 What is Red Hand!
As soon as the news that An Ning had begun conscription at the manor on the outskirts of Paris, more people from Paris flocked to this small manor on the outskirts of Paris.

For several days in a row, there was an endless stream of people coming to the manor, making the manor look like a vegetable market.

When An Ning was looking down on the second floor of the manor, she even saw someone thinking of selling water and snacks in the crowd of people in the manor.

But because too many people came, they couldn't live in all the recruits. There were only so many houses in the manor, and even the barn couldn't accommodate so many people.

So there was no way, An Ning could only send the currently recruited people to Konta first.

After a few days, An Ning has sent several companies of infantry to Konta. In order to allow these companies to have enough junior non-commissioned officers to take charge of the organization, An Ning promoted a series of non-commissioned officers from the company he brought back to Paris. , deal with the situation first.

An Ning's move made Lazar Kano frown.

But that being the case, he didn't say much.

But for the Sunset Knights, because most of the soldiers are genuine non-commissioned officers and officers, the organization is much simpler.

I don't know why, the behavior of Anning's Sunset Knights—the Sunset Army has been interpreted a lot in Paris. As a result, a bunch of little nobles who survived the rural revolution all came to join this army.

Because it takes too much manpower and energy to identify such people one by one, An Ning held her nose and accepted them all.

As a result, the situation became very strange. Under An Ning, the hero who overthrew the old system, he had the most reactionary army...

Lazarcano also expressed his concerns about this, but An Ning said that in future wars, he will use the Sunset Knights as a death squad, so don't worry.

On July 7, An Ning sent another formed female cavalry unit to Konta.

This army has no horses yet, so they have to walk to Konta.

It looks like everything is on track.

Because Lazar Kano was too capable, An Ning was free instead, so she drank tea with the little maid every day on the terrace on the second floor.

I have to say, this feeling of vertical arch and governance is really good!

On July 7, while An Ning was drinking tea, suddenly a servant from the manor appeared on the terrace and whispered something in Fanny's ear.

An Ning: "What's wrong?"

"There is someone who wants to see you by name, and he says he is an acquaintance of yours." Fanny shrugged, "I'll go down and have a look."

An Ning: "No, I'm fine anyway, let him come up."

Fanny: "I don't suggest this, if anyone who wants to see you can see you, it will..."

An Ning interrupted Fanny's words: "I'm not a real nobleman. I'm the same as everyone else. Since I'm free, it's okay if others come to see me. It's okay. You are a nobleman's maid. , In your opinion, you shouldn't do this, and I can understand it, but remember, I'm not a nobleman, I'm just the son of a cobbler."

Fanny didn't reply, but bowed slightly: "Then I'll go and bring him up."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left with the waiter who came to report.

A moment later, Fanny led a boy who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old up.

An Ning frowned when he saw the boy: "I don't remember having such a young friend."

The young man stepped forward immediately: "Mr. Frost! My father died when he stormed the Bastille, and my mother participated in the march on Versailles and was your supporter! When she was dying, she told me that she wanted me to come find you." You said that you don’t have orderlies by your side, so you should be short of someone!”

An Ning frowned: "When dying?"

The child nodded: "Yes, she was sick and kept coughing up blood. The doctor came and drained the blood several times but it didn't improve. Later, we ran out of money and couldn't afford a regular doctor anymore, so we went to a doctor in the city. Barefoot doctor, after the bloodletting, she had a high fever and finally died..."

Said the child covered his face and burst into tears.

Fanny took out her handkerchief, knelt down in front of the child, wiped his tears, and comforted him softly, "Don't cry, just talk."

An Ning sighed.

He probably guessed what was going on. The patient was already weak, and the bloodletting made him even weaker. The last fever should be the wound infection. In addition to the original illness, he passed away all at once.

The medical treatment of this era is like this. Whether it can be saved or not depends on whether the life is hard enough. Even Washington will be put to death if the life is not hard enough.

After the child stopped crying, he looked at An Ning: "Mr. Frost, I..."

An Ning: "Your mother asked you to be my orderly?"

"Yes, that's what she said. She said that she has been observing for a long time, and you have never had orderlies by your side, nor any entourage, so let me try."

An Ning curled her lips, thinking that this mother was a smart person, and if her son was the chief soldier, he might die tragically on the battlefield soon, and the orderly would be much safer.

But An Ning shook her head: "I can't let you be an orderly, because no one knows if you are sent by my enemy. There are many people in Paris who want me to die.

"However, your mother doesn't want you to die in vain on the battlefield. I have to respect her intentions. Fanny, send this child to the stables, and let the groom George teach him how to take care of the horses."

Fanny: "Yes."

The child immediately showed a grateful expression, obviously he didn't have the idea of ​​being an orderly, he just wanted to find a livelihood that would allow him to survive.

The child thanked An Ning again and again, and was taken down by Fanny.

After a while, Fanny came back: "There is another gentleman in the hall asking to see you."

An Ning frowned: "Another orphan?"

"No, it's your recruiter, Sergeant Paul."

An Ning raised his head immediately, because he had ordered the person in charge of conscription to pay attention to a few specific people, and to report to himself immediately once they were recruited.

An Ning: "Who did he find?"

Fanny: "I don't know, should I let him come up?"

An Ning: "Let him come up!"

A moment later, Sergeant Paul appeared with a young man of eighteen or nineteen.

Sergeant Paul saluted An Ning and shouted: "Your Excellency, General! We followed your order and found someone who meets your requirements!"

An Ning: "Good! Very energetic!"

Damn, because Paul's voice was too loud, he responded like this out of habit!

An Ning: "Who did you find?"

Sergeant Paul pointed to the young man next to him: "This is the apprentice of the dye house, Jean Lana! He just signed up for our army today."

An Ning was overjoyed: "Oh! Sbarasi!"

What the hell am I talking about!

An Ning: "I mean, well done!"

He stood up and walked around Jean Lannes, looking him up and down with examining eyes.

That's right, it looks almost the same as the person in the portrait!I must thank the painters who painted portraits in this era are all realistic. Even if there is some artistic processing, it will not completely change the person like the later beauty.

There is no doubt that it is the "Immortal Grenadier", the civilian marshal Jean Lana who was born in the dyeing workshop.

An Ning was so excited that she rubbed her hands together, she got another SSR!I said how could I play mobile games so badly before crossing, and even the guarantee was always crooked, so it turns out that luck is stored here!
Jean Lana is worthy of being the marshal who won the three armies. Although the current situation is very strange, he still does not flinch, and stands upright with his head held high.

An Ning spoke: "Are you Jean Lana?"

"Yes, I am, a cloth dyeing apprentice!"

"It doesn't matter, I'm still a shoemaker! The Great Revolution made us all have completely different destinies!" An Ning patted Lana on the shoulder, "You work hard in my army. Go down and find Captain Lazarcano , just say that you are the helper I sent to him, and let him teach you how to organize an army."
