Lord Witch, please don't resurrect me again!

Leoric was already full of anger today, and this horse provoked one after another, so he couldn't bear it anymore, so he said: "Xia, I have to ride this guy today, by the way, let's make a deal .”

"Deal? What deal?"

Leoric patted the hilt of his waist with his hand, and said, "If you want me to ride, I can teach you my sword skills, how about it?"

"This..." Shiya's ice-blue eyes suddenly froze, and her delicate eyebrows were locked together.

Shia was really moved.When she lost to Leoric in swordsmanship, she was actually full of interest in the swordsmanship used by Leoric.Shia felt that her strength, speed and experience were not inferior to Leoric, and even surpassed him in some respects.However, she suffered a lot in terms of moves. Leoric could either predict her sword moves and seize the opportunity;At that time, Shia thought to herself, if she could learn a few tricks from him, it would be useful for life.

But teach me swordsmanship?Can this be taught casually?Shiya is a relatively traditional plateau native. According to the rules of the plateau people, it is a very serious matter to learn from a teacher, especially the professor of martial arts, which is full of religious sanctity.The martial arts of plateau people are mostly passed down from father to son, taught by the army, or communicated within the Seven Gods Religion.

People in the plateau are so strict with the teaching of martial arts. Legend has it that it was because of a betrayal 200 years ago.At that time, the plateau people's horsemanship, swordsmanship and divine art were the three great skills, and both barbarians and demons were afraid of them.As a result, some demons pretended to be people from the highlands to steal their lessons, and the people from the highlands didn't know it, so they gave them all they had. Then the result can be imagined. Three years later, the demons performed a "use your magic" I will deal with you!", severely injuring the northern soldiers and guards of the plateau people.

Closer to home.Therefore, the relationship between Leoric and Shia generally does not teach martial arts.To teach martial arts, you must have an extremely close and trusting relationship!

Shia asked incredulously, "Aren't you joking?"

Leoric said, "Do I look like a joker to you?"

Indeed, judging from Leoric's recent reckless behavior, as long as he said it, he would definitely do it——do it.

How does he really want to teach me?When Shia thought of this, she felt joyful and excited. On the one hand, she was able to learn powerful swordsmanship, and on the other hand... Leoric trusted me so much?

Sia was two years older than Leoric, so in her eyes Leoric was still a beautiful boy—a handsome, brave, and charming boy.She subconsciously looked towards Leoric's face, and the eyes of the two just met.Shia was stunned immediately, her face turned red visibly.

Oops, what am I thinking!

"Well, if you can give me some advice, I will be grateful. But this horse..." She was still a little worried.

Leoric said: "Don't worry, I won't ride right away. Last time, I probably surprised it by going up suddenly. This time, I will communicate with the horse first and get closer."

Shia asked curiously, "Do you know how to look after horses?"

"Heard a little technique," said Leoric.

"Well, okay." So Shia got off the horse, and then she whispered to the horse that was Mortredy: "My dear baby, be obedient and take care of him, and I'll give you extra food later, please please please You!" She grabbed the horse's mane again and said, "If something goes wrong, don't blame me for turning my back on the horse!"

The horse snorted with a very perfunctory expression.

Leoric took the rein from Shia, with an imperceptible sneer flashing across his face, he said, "Well, I'll lead it around twice first, Shia, don't follow, I want to pair up with it Let’s communicate together.”

"Uh, well, be careful then."

Leoric said, "Don't worry, I'll let you know when I decide to ride it."

Shia breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine, you can go."

So Leoric led the horse named Mortready away.Neither one person nor one horse spoke, and walked for a while in silence until they came to a relatively secluded place.Leoric started the animal communication at this time, and said in horse language: "I say, Mortredy, I want to talk to you."

The horse was startled, and stared at Leoric with wide eyes, as if saying: What do you mean by your horse?

"You heard me right, I understand horse language, we can communicate." Leoric continued.

Mortready yelped a few times, but to Leoric's ears, the voice was a complete sentence.

Ma said, "What do you want to do?"

Leoric said, "I'll ride you."

The horse said: "You ride the whole filly for Grandpa, and I will let you ride right away."

Leoric laughed dumbfounded, and said, "How can there be a filly here? Besides, you are a high-footed horse of the demon race, and the other horses are too small, and they are not suitable in size."

Mortredy grinned, "Don't be afraid, I like the small size."

"You are a real punishment! But we don't like this, don't think about it, no!"

"Then you can give me any other animal, or a human. I can't change my position when I see you riding me."

"Don't think it's impossible! Ask for something else, like carrots?"

The horse snorted disdainfully, and said, "Then I'm screwed." As he said that, he lay down on the ground and stopped moving.

Fuck, this animal communication doesn't work!

Chapter 11: It's bad, isn't it?

A dead man can be saved, but a dead horse is invincible.What can I do with a fucking animal?

Leoric threatened the horse and said, "Think about it, you are a horse! If you don't allow people to ride horses, you lose your main value to people. Then, you have only one role left. Then It’s just meat—you don’t want to be slaughtered by me and stewed into horse meat soup, do you?”

The horse was lying on the ground doing freestyle, and laughed arrogantly: "You fucking slaughter! I am the king of horses in the Northern Expedition, a rare high-footed horse, with [-]% pure blood, and there is no second one in the entire swamp! You Do you know how much I'm worth? If you kill me, can you afford it?"

Leoric folded his arms and said with a smile: "Oh! What a coincidence, do you know who I am? I am the centurion Leoric, the number one hero who broke the Wild Wolf City, wait for me to return The king of the swamp is going to give me an official rank; all the girls in the army are secretly in love with me, and the old general wants to marry all his granddaughters to me—then I ask you, Brother Ma, if we must have one , Guess it's you or me?"

Mortredy's expression froze, he was silent for a few seconds, and said, "You're lying, I don't believe it."

Leoric raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't even think about it. If I were an ordinary soldier, how could I borrow her beloved horse from the Warlord?"

After all, the wisdom of a horse is not as good as that of a human. Murtready was taken aback by Leoric's half-truth, half-truth, and it got up from the ground and said, "Well, Lord Leoric, I was really rude before. Now, let me apologize to you first." Mortread said and lowered his head.

"That's right! Come on, let me ride for a while and let's just pretend nothing happened..."

"Wait!" Mortread took a step back.

Leoric asked, "What's the matter?"

Mortredy snorted and said, "There is an ancient saying, 'A loyal subject is not a second lord!'. I am the mount of Lord Shia, and I swore to be loyal to her only in my life, so I threw you off. .”

Leoric pointed at it and cursed: "Don't talk about it, you beast! That Shia ordered you to serve me, didn't you hear?"

With an innocent face, Ma said, "I don't understand human speech!"

Hey!

At this time, Mo Tready said: "Why don't we both take a step back and make a deal."

"What do you think."

Mortready said: "I can let you ride, and I will be obedient, and I will make you show off. I can even teach you the most correct horsemanship-you see, a horse teaches you how to ride, which is no better than a man teaching you how to ride. ?”

Leoric nodded and said, "It's interesting, what about your conditions?"

"I want to ride the filly," said Mortready.

Fuck, Shia would have to amputate her legs if she knew that her ass was such an animal.

Leoric said, "Brother Ma, didn't I? You're too big, there's no suitable filly here. And I won't allow you to do such a thing, it's too much punishment."

"I know where it is! I can take you there." Mortredy looked excited, and the greedy light in his eyes was infinitely close to the old prostitute who saw the brothel.

"Oh? Where is it?"

Murtready said: "There is a valley thirty miles northwest of Wild Wolf City. There is a natural horse farm in it. I ran out from there."

Leoric touched his chin, thinking: Racecourse?

It's interesting.

……

Shia regretted it.

The moment Leoric took the horse out of her sight, she regretted it.

Is swordsmanship instruction that important?Is it important to have his life safe?Besides, if Leoric falls to his death, who else should I learn swordsmanship from?

Shia sat on the steps of the tavern, resting her chin on one hand, and sighed after a while.

At this time, Sir Milan came out from the tavern behind her with a glass of beer in his hand.He hiccupped and said to Shia on the steps, "Have a drink?"

Shia frowned and said, "Don't you know that the army usually prohibits alcohol?"

"Ham, it's not a war now, so I'll have a drink quietly."

"Fall!" Shia said.

"Just pour it." Sir Milan poured the remaining half glass of beer at a sleeping cat on the street corner. The kitten was startled, and ran away with a whimper.

This rascal, how does this kind of person fight?Shia thought to herself.

Sir Milan is the head of the army of the nobles, and the nobles are the benefactors of the Northern Expedition, so Shia can't do anything to this bald man, at most he just verbally punished him.

Then Ser Milan sat down beside her and said, "Who is that, Leoric?"

"Please stay away from me, you smell of alcohol."

Sir Milan shifted his position half way wisely, and said, "Is that why I'm so unpopular?"

"Sir, if you want people to like you, you have to be self-respecting, self-reliant and self-disciplined. You haven't done any of these three things. It's hard for anyone to like you."

Sir Milan said with a straight face, "Leoric is popular now, but I don't think he is very good. He can't even ride a horse! Why don't you let him go to the equestrian school run by my family?" In a few months, he'll be as good at riding as I am... eh? What's that?"

At this moment, Sir Milan saw a cloud of smoke on the streets.Then he heard the sound of hooves.At this time, Jazz had a bad feeling in his heart.

At this moment, Shia stood up and said excitedly, "Leoric!"

I saw Leoric galloping all the way on that tall horse, acting like an experienced rider, it was completely impossible to tell that he had just learned how to ride a horse.Sir Milan frowned when he saw this scene, and then he was very savvy.

Leoric came to Shia and said, "Shia, it's alright, I've learned how to ride a horse."

"Ah? That... that's really great." Shia looked at her beloved horse, Mortrides, who had a docile face, not as arrogant as he was at the beginning.Shia thought: I don't know what method Leoric used to tame the horse, but it's good that he can return safely.

Leoric waved at Shia and said, "Come on, I'll take you this time!"

"Okay!" Shia said and walked up.

Seeing this situation, Mortridy under his ass was not happy, and shouted: "Why? You still want to ride me together? You are heavy enough, and Shia is wearing armor, so it is heavy! "

Leoric patted it on the neck and said, "Do you fucking want a filly?"

For the filly, Mortread bowed his proud head.

Leoric and Mortread were used to communicating in horse language, so they forgot to speak horse language again.At this time, Shia's perspective is: first, the horse monster barked a few times, then Leoric barked with an even weirder voice, then Mortride stopped barking, and then Leoric touched He stroked Mortread's fur.

Shia couldn't understand it, but she was shocked!

"Come on!" Leoric stretched out his hand towards Shia.

"Oh!" Shia grabbed Leoric's hand and got on the horse.

The two rode horses and strolled through the streets of Wild Wolf City.This steed (to be discussed) with a beautiful woman feels like driving a luxury car to pick up a girl in my previous life, it feels very cool.Leoric wandered around in the name of patrol for a long time, but it was Fu who captured him alive and gave him a training before giving up.

In the evening, Leoric took a walk outside again after eating.Now he is both a wounded soldier and a centurion in name, so he doesn't have to participate in the evening training, he belongs to the official designated street, and he can go wherever he likes, as long as Fu doesn't catch him.After walking for a while, he suddenly remembered that he still had an agreement with Shia, so he went to Shia's office to find someone.

The offices of Shia and other army generals were located in the original Earl's Mansion.This place is the private residence of Earl Hughes of Wild Wolf City. It has two floors, with gorgeous decoration, and there is a garden fountain in the courtyard, just like a small palace.

At that time, General Akkad sneered when he saw this gorgeous mansion, and said: "This barbarian is really spoiled by the richness of Middle-earth! Damn it, he lives ten times better than us! There are no castles in this outer city." Fortress, build a garden villa, this is simply looking down on us."

At that time, Earl Hughes did not expect that the plateau people who had been driven to the swamp could still march north, let alone that the plateau people could break through the outer wall of Wild Wolf City, so there was no defense at all inside.This kind of arrogant operation naturally foreshadowed his failure.Otherwise, if this guy sticks to the fortress after the outer city is broken, the outcome of this battle is still unknown.

Now this luxurious Earl's Mansion has become the temporary headquarters of the Northern Expedition Army, and everyone lives and works in it.He brushed his face at the doorman and entered the door, then walked towards Shia's office.He was still in the corridor, when he heard Shia's voice: "Redo this report, I want to know how much food and grass is wasted in our second warehouse; then you go to the person in charge of logistics and ask him the last time I Why haven’t the military supplies you need come out yet? What’s the problem? Tell me, I’ll find a way to solve it…”

Shia should be the busiest person in this legion.Leoric remembered that there was a saying in "A Song of Ice and Fire" called "The king eats the banquet, and the prime minister shits", which means that the first leader is easy to do, but the second leader is difficult.As the second in command of the army, Shia has endless affairs to deal with every day.Although the general will share some of it, but the old man is old after all, and Shia is mainly responsible for it.

Leoric came to the door and saw that Shia was asking someone to refill the oil lamp. Seeing this, she was going to start the fairy office mode tonight.

Leoric bowed and said, "Lord Shia!"

"Ah, Leoric? Why are you here?" After seeing him, Shia's eyes lit up.

Chapter 12: The Social Death of Sia Reque

Leoric said, "Didn't you say we're going to practice swordsmanship together?"

"Starting tonight?"

Shiyana's face that was gray due to exhaustion glowed, but she quickly lowered her head again and said, "But I still have work."

Leoric said: "Martial arts training is also a part of work. We are fighting in battle. What else can be more important than this? Besides, why do you have to do all these jobs? There should be a lot of people here. Is it the job of the logistics officer, the chief of staff, and the heads of the regiments?"

Shia smiled wryly, and said, "They asked me to help, and I couldn't refuse, after all, I'm the warlord, and those who are able should work harder."

Leoric has lived two lifetimes, and he understands this routine of workplace pua very well.He said: "The position of an overseer is to manage people and discipline, not to be a coolie. That is whoever's job should be done. If you are so spoiled by them, firstly, you will raise them and use them up, and secondly, you yourself If you are exhausted, it is not good for the overall situation of the army in the end, is it?"

This is indeed the truth, Shia is upright and simple, and she is a bit stubborn in this regard, but she is not stupid, she wants to understand when Leoric said this.So Shia raised her hand and said: "Yes, so who, Jason, you send this stack of documents to Sir Milan for approval, and I will check it tomorrow night at the latest; oh, return these The logistics department, let them get it by themselves, if they ask, they will say that I have gone to practice swords."

As a result, the workload decreased visibly with the naked eye. Seeing that there were fewer documents on the table, Shia also breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that her shoulders became lighter.

"Then let's go?" Leoric pointed his thumb outside.
