Chapter 118 Passing by
The time has entered late winter, and the temperature has become increasingly cold. Recently, there has been a heavy snowfall that has covered half of the north. The old people said that they have never seen anything like this before.

After more than ten days of marching, the cavalry arrived at the southern edge of the fortress county. At this time, the winter hunting troops had withdrawn from outside the fortress. In the past month, it took a lot of time to deal with slaves, sort out supplies, re-gather food and grass, etc. The two sides were in The northern side of the Berkshires completes the confluence.

The atmosphere in the military camp was much more relaxed than when they advanced north, but it was true that tens of thousands of soldiers died in the battle. Since the battle site was not too far from the empire's border, Esdeath chose to recover the bodies of the soldiers against all opinions. This move This allowed her to gain a lot of support from the newly formed border troops.

After the integration, its headquarters has more than 5 people, and all of them are elite main forces. They can be regarded as a town of princes anywhere in the empire.

Due to the message passed by the sentinels, the cavalry received a warm reception the next moment they entered the camp, and Jiang Yuan rode the Flame Destroying Tiger straight to the Chinese army's tent.

Rushing into the tent, Esdeath had a cold expression on his face. Just as he was about to scold a certain guy who had left the team for more than a month, he heard the other party shouting:

"Sir, let someone help me."

Jiang Yuan hugged the clan king and gently placed him next to the bonfire in the tent. The previous injuries were all fine, but the main reason was the sudden heavy snowfall, coupled with the bumpy road and fatigue, which directly hit the relaxed old man hard.

The fever persists and the body temperature is out of balance.

"Is this the clan king?"

Esdeath looked at the king of a foreign nation in front of him with great interest. The old man had majestic eyebrows, white beard and hair, and was tall. He might have been extraordinarily brave when he was young.

"Is there any way?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"Yes." Esdeath gave Leva a look and continued: "The master of Anjibo who is responsible for the safety of royal medical care is the holder of the Teigu Hyuguea Urn of Death. The effect is to use His own vitality can heal injuries and diseases, and generally speaking, few people in history can die a good death. Ernest attaches great importance to this winter hunt, and there is a death-saving potion for those above the rank of deputy general."

Liwa came over with a carved wooden box in his arms. After opening it, there were seven cylindrical containers containing light green liquid. He took out one and poured it into the mouth of the clan king. The next second, the gleaming green light began to shine in the mouth. Body surface flashes.

Esdeath stopped paying attention when he saw this, looked at someone and said, "Why don't you take me with you when you go north."

"It's a complete accident." Jiang Yuan was more interested in Anjifang, "What is the level of intelligence on the Death Urn?"

"Top secret." Esdeath closed her eyelids slightly.

"So the emperors of all dynasties could only end their lives?"

"You're getting more and more outrageous."

Jiang Yuan nodded. Seeing that the clan king was out of danger, he turned around and left the tent. The next step was to wait until the imperial capital received the reward.

At the door, the foreign girl who was once a trophy was standing guard. Judging from her clothing, she should be a messenger. Her long hair was cut to a very short length, and her eyes were at least no longer weak. Jiang Yuan glanced casually and then looked away. According to common sense, It is said that the messengers must be sent by personal soldiers, but Esdeath is a person who can let go even his mortal enemies, so it is normal for him to act recklessly.

If he guessed correctly, the girl had one chance to safely assassinate Esdeath, and the other person would be let go afterwards. If she failed to assassinate Esdeath for the second time without making significant progress, she would probably be killed by the interrogation game.

On the east side of the big tent is the cavalry camp. At this moment, many people are telling other soldiers the stories of their trip to the north of the Great Wall. The clan king is the best evidence, so no one questions the authenticity.

Jiang Yuan found Lesu and Renn. The former had recently gathered 3000 left-wing troops. Together with the hundreds of remaining thieves, his strength had exceeded that of a school. From the leader of the thieves' village to the regular military academy officer, he only It took less than two months.

The latter was also promoted due to merit. Two school officers in the left-wing army died, and the vacant spot was naturally taken by someone who was the commander-in-chief of the left-wing army at the time. It was much simpler to be an agent first and then become a full-time officer based on merit, rather than being directly promoted.

"Le Su, follow me to the imperial capital, Rennes. Your troops will be stationed in Berkshire and integrate the border army prisoners. The soldiers will serve as officers. I will contact Count Theus about this matter, and [-] of the prisoners will be handed over to the count. Control." Ren hesitated, but finally made up his mind: "Sir, my father..."

The earl has begun to deal with the incident of devouring grain and grass led by Viscount Abel.

"I will try, but I won't make a promise." Jiang Yuan replied.

"Thank you...cousin Noel." Ren pursed his lips and said.

"No need to thank you, you have this value, go and prepare."

"Understood, my lord baron."

After Ren left, Le Su smiled and said: "Sir, I intercepted many beautiful women last time when I distributed the spoils. If you are interested, I will send them to the deputy camp's big tent tonight."

"Can you get a dragon?" Jiang Yuan asked calmly.

Lesu: "..."

Sure enough, the true pervert is always hidden.

"As for Tulong, I might be able to give it a try." Lesu hesitated, with a bit of disbelief still on his face.

"There's no beauty in it. Forget it. Send someone to keep an eye on Hettings' whereabouts."

"Yes."

……

The winter hunting troops continued to return south, stopping temporarily when passing by the junction of Berkshire and Lanhai County. The noble coalition troops returned to their respective homes. In addition to expressing their stance to the central faction, they also received a lot of slaves and rewards. Overall, it was considered a profit. One thing, the fundamental reason is actually that the frontier army and the Norfolk family failed to participate in dividing the spoils this time.

Esdeath led people to discuss food and grass matters with the governors of the two places. Due to the large number of people and horses, it would take more than a month to march from Berkshire to the imperial capital. During this period, someone had to bear the consumption of horse chews. There is no such a long supply line.

Earl's Castle, Berkshire.

In the stables to the west of the school grounds, Theus patiently fed his mount with food and grass. The second-level dangerous species, the Hongwuma, did not have outstanding combat power, but it was very beautiful. The price of an excellent stallion was even much higher than that of a manor. .

The Hongwu horse is tall and smooth in appearance, with full muscles. When it sweats, it first gets wet and then gets wet. This stallion is maroon in color and will appear like bleeding after sweating. Considering that it is still less than three years old this year, there will be many opportunities in the future. Adapt to other mares.

"But it's still not as majestic as the Yan Destroy Tiger." Titus said with a slight regret. He originally wanted to give the first Hongwu horse cub to Noel, but now it seems that it is a bit useless.

"Give it to Chitong." Jiang Yuan said while sitting on the guardrail. The water bag in his hand was filled with kumiss, which was obtained from the collection of the nobles in Yunzhong. It could barely replace mezcal as a daily drink.

Theus clapped his hands and stood up, "How long are you going to stay when you come back this time?"

"One day at most. Esdeath is currently in the limelight. The two prefects dare not refuse her request. At most, they will try to shirk it a few times." Jiang Yuan took a sip of the light golden wine in his water bag, which smelled like milk. Pure, sweet and sour, quite good.
