Chapter 616: Reunion
"Morning."
Jeanne stood on the pier, stretching her limbs that had been curled up for half the night.
Although it was autumn, the grassland where there had just been a freezing rain was still too cold compared to Egypt where winter was about to begin in late autumn.
Last night, they rested on the top of this pier all night, wandering aimlessly. It would be better to find out where to meet Lothar first, otherwise they might go in the opposite direction and go further and further away.
"It's good for you, this... girl, our narrow-mindedness has made a few people suffer."
"It's nothing. We are not ordinary people. According to what you say here, we are more or less Qi practitioners or martial arts masters. It is good to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain."
Jeanne said very freely that when she led the Holy Knights to hunt down a "cannibal", she slept in the open on the Eastern European prairie for more than ten days before going deep into the cave and killing the cannibal in the cave full of corpses. Monster trial.
She has experienced too many harsh environments.
After chatting with Jeanne for a few words, Zhang San became dizzy. Not to mention the village women he saw on weekdays, it was the Li family official who he had caught a glimpse of when going to the market and missed every night. A man's concubine is just a vulgar person.
If only this girl was beautiful, that would be it. The women wearing hijab around her could not see their faces, but just the tip of their chin exposed and their figure must be one of a kind. beauty.
Are all the women in this country so beautiful?
"Are you planning to make peace with your envoy next?"
"That's right."
"The envoy was traveling with His Majesty the Emperor. Due to the lack of food and grass, they were forced to divide their troops. They have already left the Great Wall. It is not easy to find them."
Maybe they would have been killed by the Tatars long ago.
Jeanne nodded: "So we plan to go to Tumu Castle to look for your Majesty the Emperor's chariot. Our mission is not ready to return home yet, so we have to join him anyway."
"That's it"
There was a trace of reluctance in Zhang San's tone.
The life of guarding the pier is hard. Let alone women, even hens and ewes are hard to find on this grassland.
Secretly I want to do some sewing, but I can hardly imagine what a woman looks like in my head.
"Girls, please wait a moment. I'll go and inform our leader."
Zhang San entered the pier and saw his boss yawning. His eyes were bloodshot. He had obviously not slept all night: "Boss, are you being too cautious?"
The flag officer lowered his voice and cursed angrily: "They are all like you animals. They can't walk when they see a woman. The bones of our guards have long been gone."
"Hey, didn't the Fourth Brother say that he asked the Immortal Family? These are just a group of ordinary girls."
"Get lost."
The little flag official pushed Zhang San away angrily, without thinking about it. If the fourth child really served the Xian family, how could he hang out with them here? I have long been walking around the streets and earning money from those dignitaries.
Among these women, the armor worn by the leader is not simple, and the mount on his crotch is a unique horse. How can it be as simple as an ordinary girl?
If they were really weak women, how could they still make it this far? He had been kidnapped by a strongman and Roadhog a long time ago!
However, contrary to the expectations of the flag officer, after preparing fodder for their mounts, these women dropped a few beautifully designed coins and left neatly.
Everyone watched them disappear at the foot of the mountain in the distance without making any unnecessary movements.
The flag officer breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhang San joked: "Boss, let me tell you that you are too careful, right? How can a beautiful woman who is so heroic and bold like her be a bad person?"
The little flag official couldn't help but kick the bad guy: "Idiot, didn't you see that after these beauties entered the pier last night, they didn't even dare to call the two tigers? Last time, a wolf came in Monster, two tigers dare to pounce on them and bite them, why are they so afraid of these ordinary women?"
Erhu is a dog raised by Dunshang. He has a ferocious temperament and barks when he feels a strange smell. He has saved more than one life of this Dunshang people.
"The boss is right. I didn't dare to do it all night last night. I was still holding the knife handle under the quilt."
"Hey, isn't this okay?"
Zhang Sanyi and other piercers didn't take it seriously and gathered around to express their doubts.
"Boss, you are well-informed. Please tell us carefully. Are all these Orchids so beautiful?"
The little flag officer was speechless for a while and cursed: "How can I be so well-informed? If I were really well-informed, why would I be leading you to guard the gate here?"
His voice paused, and he continued: "However, these Hu Ji's looks and figures are indeed outstanding. It seems that even the ladies in the palace are nothing more than this, right?"
Nothing happened all morning.
Just when the flag officer thought that the peaceful days would be back on track, a sudden exclamation came from the observation deck.
"Boss, come up and take a look, there's a large group of people approaching!"
The flag officer took three steps at a time, climbed up to the observation deck, and looked far into the distance. On the hill in the distance, he saw a row of armored cavalry, menacing, and stained with blood, heading this way.
"What banner are they using?"
"Don't you recognize it? It looks like an eagle with two heads, and there are horizontal and vertical symbols."
"Wait a minute, as the girl said before, their foreign mission seems to be using this kind of banner!"
But he saw two people galloping out of the team.
When they were far away, they couldn't see clearly, but when they got closer, everyone gasped. The leader was wearing a golden mask and bright armor, which was obviously the same style as the one worn by Miss Rang.
This is nothing, at most it makes people sigh with emotion about what a majestic general!
What really frightened the soldiers guarding the pier was the giant horse under his crotch. The "servant" riding beside him was also a good horse, but compared with the one under the knight's crotch, it looked like a horse. A young foal!
"Mom, why is this horse so big? It's like a monster, isn't it?"
"Is this really the Hu people's mission?"
Xiaoqi said coldly: "What are you still doing? Everyone is on guard."
But he heard the person following the giant horse knight shout: "Sirs and soldiers, I am the night flag of the Datong Guard. His Majesty is trapped in the earthen fort. I have been ordered to lead the envoy led by the Prince of Ha to rescue him. "
The flag official stuck his head out and asked, "Do you have any proof?"
"The cards in your hand are proof!"
The man shouted, holding up the token in his hand.
Zhang San said from the side: "Boss, it should not be fake. These foreign barbarians have very different looks from the Tatars and us. It is not easy to find someone to impersonate them. The armor on their bodies is also very novel." , in line with the identity of a foreign country.”
The little flag officer was silent for a moment and shouted: "You are covered in blood, but you have experienced a war?"
The person below replied: "We just encountered a Tatar cavalry of several hundred people and have wiped them all out."
Xiaoqi nodded: "I believe in your identity, but the pier is too narrow to allow you to come in. Since you are part of King Qin's army, if you have any needs, we will do our best to provide them!"
The giant horse knight below took off his mask, revealing a handsome face with short blond hair: "You are cautious, and you don't want to think about my thousands of troops. How can I defraud your small pier?" What’s the use?”
"Send some water down as a reward for you."
As he spoke, the knight threw out dozens of gold coins, which were embedded in the stone pillar behind him like a strong bow and crossbow.
