From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 80 Rewarding the Army
Allen stood beside Ryan, looking at him with admiration in his eyes. In his eyes, what Ryan did was full of knightly virtues. He is a real knight!

Seeing that the atmosphere had almost been mobilized, Ryan pressed his hands together and said loudly: "Although it's a long time late, but we can't do without, tonight is a celebration banquet for everyone!
I have already ordered that there is enough ale and meat, except for the necessary security forces, everyone have a carnival tonight, this is your banquet! "

Everyone smiled. The simple words of wine and meat are magical, and the image of Ryan in their hearts is even more stalwart.

Allen opened his mouth, originally wanting to emphasize that drinking is not allowed in the barracks, but seeing the excited expressions of the soldiers, no matter how stupid they are, they will not disappoint at this time.

"The war is over, as long as the necessary vigilance is maintained, it is time for everyone to relax."

He secretly thought in his heart that he was not a pedantic and harsh person, so naturally he would not stand up and spoil everyone's happiness.

Soon, piles of dry firewood were piled up on the school grounds, and they were lit with fiery torches to form a bonfire. The soaring flames dispelled the cold night, and everyone felt warm.

They are either two or three small groups, or half a large group, gathered around the campfire, waiting for their own banquet.

Although they didn't drink, all of them were flushed with long-lost smiles, but in a short period of time, they received several subsidies and salaries.

The life at home has improved visibly with the naked eye. Someone asked, and when they said they were militiamen, some people actually thought highly of them.

All these transformations are so unreal, but they actually happened, and all of these were brought about by that person, in less than a month.

Ryan and Allen were sitting together around the bonfire, as well as Liman, who was entangled. Ryan kept ignoring him, but he actually held his breath and insisted on not speaking, just exhausted.

At the beginning, the atmosphere at the scene was still a little silent. After all, Ryan, who is the lord, was also here, and many people couldn't let go. As time went by, everyone gradually let go.

They started chatting and bragging. Some people talked about how brave they were on the battlefield, beat the orcs to the ground, and then they were exposed mercilessly, and then laughed at by a group of people.

The man was not annoyed, he still argued with his neck stuck up, his face was flushed red.

Some people also talked about some old-fashioned hero stories, such as dragon slaying warriors, princes and princesses...

Some people whispered some nasty jokes, which caused a large group of old men around to laugh obscenely, and they all began to think about it...

The atmosphere at the scene was pushed to a climax because of De Lai's arrival, not only because of De Lai's good prestige in the army, but also because of the large altar of ale and baskets of wine he brought in his carriage. Eggs, pork that has been cleaned long ago, chicken...

It can be seen that De Lai spent a lot of money this time, which is really rare for a miser like him.

Under his command, all the soldiers cheered and moved the things down, and the cooks in the camp started cooking.Many people can't bear it, and directly use the branches to skewer the meat and eat it.

Ryan can't eat this kind of unmarinated meat. His mouth is rather tricky, but the soldiers don't think so much. It's a happy event to eat meat, so why should we pursue the method?

The fat and lean pork is grilled so that it is sizzling with oil. After roasting, sprinkle some salt, smear the unique local spices, and cut it into small pieces with a dagger. It is not bad.

All of a sudden, the smell of all kinds of barbecues scurry around, hooking everyone's gluttons.

The kitchen was not to be outdone. After quick processing and preparation, boiled eggs, stewed meat, toast... proceeded in an orderly manner.

Everyone ate meat, drank ale, bragged, sang, and some did simple dances around the bonfire. The orange-red flames reflected on everyone's faces, and all of them were filled with smiles.

Drey, Hans, Alan, and Ryan sat together, and the rest left with interest and blended into the grassroots soldiers.

Even Liman left temporarily, because he would be really hungry now, and went down to find something to eat...

"It's been so long since I've been here, it's the first time I've been so relaxed." De Lai picked up the wine bottle on the table, poured wine for everyone, and said with a little emotion.

"It's more than that, my lord. I haven't been so relaxed since the beginning of winter." Hans took a sip of his wine and smiled helplessly.

Ryan felt the warm atmosphere quietly, and he hasn't relaxed for a long time. Since he came to the southern border, he has always had a sense of urgency spurring him, so that he dare not slack off for a day.

But now, the biggest crisis has passed, and he can relax a little bit.

Ryan and the others haven't been together for a long time. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, they frequently pushed and changed glasses. They poured wine for Ryan one by one as if they had negotiated.

Ryan is also bold, and he never refuses anyone who comes. No matter in his previous life or in this life, he decomposes alcohol very quickly. Although it is not a huge amount, he thinks he will drink a few bottles of wine of this strength without showing his face.

Drinking one cup after another, Alan was the first one who couldn't handle it. His drinking capacity was the bottom one. It didn't take long for him to surrender and lay down on the table to sleep.

In fact, they can completely dissolve the alcohol with fighting spirit while drinking, but in this case, they naturally have to use their real skills, so there is no point in playing tricks.

Hans drank for a while and went down to celebrate with the soldiers.

Ryan and De Lai smiled at each other, raised their glasses and clinked at the same time, and there were only the two of them left.

At this time, two figures came late, one was Hevian, and the other was Joel who claimed to be a "cooking" talent.

This made Ryan a little curious, why did the two of them get mixed up?
Hevian was dressed plainly and did not bring any entourage or transportation. It could be seen that he was walking very fast, a little out of breath.

"Mr. Hevian, you can find me here, you are really everywhere." Ryan joked with a smile. In the past two days, Hevian often reported the progress of the project to him, and then asked people, asked Money, food.

Ryan was a little afraid of him, and wished he could walk around him.

It's not that Hevian deliberately harassed him, but that he is indeed responsible for a lot of places now, and he needs to report to Ryan in the early stage.

In addition to the original errands of building houses, the work-for-relief planned by Ryan also fell on his shoulders. He was so busy with repairing city walls, building cemeteries, digging moats, etc. that he never touched the ground.

Ryan's recruitment of talents today also means finding helpers for him, and he has also selected a few that can be used, so that he can practice with experience and make it easier, but he has not taken up the post yet.

Hevian obviously had no intention of joking, and said solemnly: "My lord baron, something happened."
