The Lion King of Middenland, Warhammer

() "Ah! That young knight as mighty as a lion, are you the noble son of Tyrell's great Valkyrie princess? Are you a noble descendant of the blood of St. Middenland? Dear Lord Hyde, please accept my words Honorary Knight of the Little Rick, Chief of the Imperial Expeditionary Force No.19 Forward Depot, respects to the humble old Mount! I hurried to lead the cavalry after hearing the roar in the forest, but it seems that you And the brave Knight Commander Loren has solved the problem, I am too slow, which really makes me ashamed."

The fat man in Chinese clothes named Mount jumped off his fur-covered mule, took off his hat and greeted Hyde with a smile.He is bald and has a burn scar on his left forehead that appears to have been caused by gunpowder.When he jumped off the mule, Hyde sensitively noticed that his left leg was a little stiff, which was different from the normal leg, which may be the reason for the injury in the war.

"Dear Lord Mount, you are too serious. Although I have the blood of Middenland and Tyrell, I am just an ordinary soldier in this country. Just now, Lord Loren and I encountered more than [-] people in the forest. Only Chaos beasts killed some, and the rest fled. Although they have been repulsed, there may be a large army ambushing and planning to attack our military depot. We must be prepared for this. Your Excellency Loren and I are now Just to inform you of this news, however, I am a little surprised to find that you have prepared everything, and it also makes me respect your prophet."

Hyde also got off his horse and bowed to pay tribute to the smiling depot supervisor.He is a man of etiquette, and he will not be indifferent to the courtesy of this supervisor.What's more, this fat man is obviously an old acquaintance of Grandpa Loren, and he should have fought side by side with Grandpa.The wounds on the old Mount's head and legs should be the traces left by the battle that year. For such an old man who has been honed in the flames of war for many years, respect is a must for his elders.

"Ah! Your Excellency Hyde really deserves to be the Goddess of Valkyrie Mirmidia's glory. I admire your courage and bravery, and I am flattered by your polite words. As an old guy with 35 years of military experience , I will naturally know some skills to be on guard against the enemy, this is the basic work I should do. Of course, in the current situation where the enemy situation is unknown, I think we should go back to the camp first, and then discuss these issues."

Hyde's polite language made the fat supervisor named Mount's eyes widen, which seemed a little unexpected.But he immediately calmed down, answered Hyde's words with a smile, and waved his hat again to pay tribute to the young noble knight.The musketeers beside him also took off their helmets and, like their fat commander, paid homage to Hyde.This made Hyde slightly embarrassed.

"Well, respected Your Excellency Mount, your opinion is very correct, let us go back to the camp. But I haven't done anything big, so you don't have to be so polite."

Hyde scratched his fluffy hair and got on his horse, but he still couldn't help expressing his heart to the Musketeers in front of him. He was not used to accepting the etiquette of a large number of people like this, and he always felt a little weird.

"Your Excellency Hyde is a humble person. He didn't even wear any armor just now, so he rode alone and killed dozens of Chaos beasts. He stabbed their leader to death with just one charge, and killed these ugly beasts. Fleeing away, he killed and wounded more than a dozen Chaos vicious beasts alone during the entire battle, this deed is worthy of your respect."

Old Loren rode side by side with these horsemen, and he waved his bronze hand and told them Hyde's deeds in a proud voice.This caused a small commotion in the Musketeer cavalry queue, and some people began to whisper.

"My brave lads, let us salute the valor of Lord Hyde!"

The fat executive in a fur coat also rode on his mule. He pulled the reins, gestured to his subordinates, and then pulled out the flared revolver pistol on his waist with his left hand and fired a shot into the air. Guns, loud gunshots and sulfurous white smoke filled the air.

"Hail to the brave Lord Hyde!"

When the commander issued the summons, these Musketeers wearing cuirasses saluted Hyde neatly, and then pulled out the long-barreled pistols at their waists and shot into the air, the sound shook the sky.Their voices echoed with the gunshots, echoing in Hyde's ears, which made Hyde's face blush a little.

These cavalry saluted wholeheartedly, not just to follow the leader, nor did they plan to flatter the St. Midland family.It was because they not only heard old Loren's description, but also clearly saw Hyde's banner spear and sword covered in blood and animal hair, and the reason why he and his horse were stained with enemy blood.These Musketeers knew very well that this young knight who killed the Chaos beasts wearing only a wide-sleeved coat and was not injured at all was worthy of their respect.Soldiers on the battlefield only worship the brave, as the old Loren said, the warrior deserves the respect of the warrior!

The soldiers at the gate of the camp drew back their horses and lined up in two lines to welcome the return of the depot supervisor, Hyde and others.After the group of people walked into the gate, they quickly pulled up the short poplar suspension bridge, retracted the horse, and then closed the solid oak gate covered with thick fireproof mud and painted with rune symbols.All of this was done so quickly and orderly, which shows that these guards are well-trained soldiers, and their usual absent-mindedness is just an appearance. When it comes to a critical moment, these soldiers immediately proved their commitment with actions Quality.

"Chaos Beasts are different from the powerful Chaos Legion in the North. They are half-human, half-beasts with low IQ, without good organization and weapons. These guys are usually active in the central forest area of ​​the empire, forming chaotic herds to attack villages and towns or A city that is well-prepared. But when the chaos storm comes, they are also easily accepted by the Chaos Legion and used by them. According to your description, these guys may have been ordered and instigated by the Chaos Army in the north to attack us in delusion supply line."

The fat executive in a fur coat sat in his wooden chair, analyzing his opinion on the Chaos trail to old Loren and Hyde.It was time for lunch. He called the orderly, set up tables and chairs under a wooden watchtower in the center of the military depot, and served four dishes of hot steamed goose, roast beef, cut sausage and fried potatoes. Freshly baked bread and a small barrel of wine came, and we chatted while eating.

"Mount, judging from my fight just now, the strength of these chaotic beasts is average, and I easily chopped down a bunch of them. But they run very fast, and they may be the vanguard scouts of the large army. But here is Kislev The southern border of China is far away from their active areas, and most of them are grasslands, with few woodlands. The wild beasts cannot hide, and their strength will not be many. Of course, the question is how our defense is, and the outcome of a war will always be It's held in your own hands."

Old Loren waved his copper hand, put forward his own opinion, and then drank a large glass of dark wine in one breath. He was indeed a little thirsty during the battle just now.

"Loren, I generally agree with your opinion. The strength of Chaos Beasts lies in surprise attacks, and it is difficult for them to attack prepared fortified positions. Although we do not belong to the same principality now, nor are we in the same army, but you are my The big brother who has been around for decades is also my honored guest, I can tell you about the strength of this military depot."

The fat supervisor named Mount took a bite of the wind goose, wiped the oil from his mouth, and continued to analyze the current situation with his guests.
