Gu Pingxiu explained: "The Roman princess asked the Lord to let the two strongest warriors in her team join the Liang family army and listen to the command of the Marquis."
Liang Xiao was thoughtful.
His Liang Jiajun must obey his orders absolutely. Without other masters, these two people obviously do not meet the conditions.
Moreover, even if they join the Liang Family Army, he would not be able to place them in the most dangerous positions.
However, Diana had this intention and also expressed her support for Da Zhou.
"What did your Majesty say?" Liang Xiao asked.
"Your Majesty, let the Marquis do as he pleases," Gu Pingxiu replied.
Liang Xiao felt relieved and asked, "What do you call the two of you?"
"No. 17!" "No. 18!"
The two people's poor Dazhou dialect made Liang Xiao depressed: "Huh?"
Where are the artificial humans here?
"You don't have your own name?"
One of them explained: "We have joined the empire's death squads since we were children. We will only retain our military numbers before we retire, and we will be loyal to our duties!"
Liang Xiao asked curiously: "Does your number mean that there are sixteen stronger warriors ahead of you?"
"Those sixteen comrades-in-arms have died in battle one after another. The ones who killed them were barbarian warriors from the north called the Tianri Tribe, who were hailed as the 'Son of God' by the Tianri Tribe." No. 17 replied.
Liang Xiao nodded slightly and said: "From now on, you can follow the Liang Family Army and make contributions with me."
The two men broke their arrows and swore an oath on the spot, swearing to represent Rome and be loyal to Zhou and never betray him.
Of course Liang Xiao didn't believe in such things as oaths, but ancient people took oaths very seriously.
Since Diana was in Dazhou, he didn't have to worry about the two collaborating or defecting.
Gu Pingxiu suddenly remembered something and asked curiously: "Recently, there is a rebel army in the Jiangnan area. They believe in the Tianri Sect. Could it be related to the Tianri Clan?"
No. 17 was stunned and gritted his teeth and said: "The holy religion of the Tianri Clan is the Tianri Sect! If the Great Zhou conquers them in the future, please let me take the lead!!"
Liang Xiao immediately arranged for Gu Pingxiu to take the two of them to register for military status, test their military proficiency and personal force, and visit Diana himself.
Honglu Temple.
In the annex, Diana looked at Liang Xiao sitting across from her with a smile.
Weiss stood aside, silent, but also curiously observing Liang Xiao.
"Marquis Lanling is so polite. I am honored by your country's courtesy, so naturally I should contribute my own strength to your country. Both of them are well-known brave men in our empire. The reason why they followed me is because they believe that heroes are born here. soil of."
Diana did not forget to observe Liang Xiao's reaction as she spoke, and asked: "Marquis Lanling, do you really plan to lead troops in battle in the future?"
"We in the Zhou Dynasty advocate filial piety. My father died on the battlefield and his body was humiliated by the Beihu, so I will eventually have a battle with the Beihu!" Liang Xiao said firmly.
Diana's smile turned serious and she nodded slightly, still looking away from Liang Xiao.
She had already learned about the relationship between the Lanling Marquis Mansion and the Great Zhou Martial Saint, and now she looked at him with even more admiration.
According to her understanding, even if Liang Xiao lived in the capital all his life, he would still be successful and famous and his name would go down in history.
But he chose to join the military.
"Marquis Lanling, I need to remind you that Beihu is far more powerful than you think." Diana said solemnly.
"You seem to know Beihu?" Liang Xiao finally became interested.
Deanna shook her head.
"I don't know Beihu, but I know the enemies of our empire - the Tianri tribe entrenched in our north. This is a mysterious and ancient ethnic group that seems to be related to the Aryans. Part of their country borders Beihu. , the two trade. The reason why Beihu is strong is inseparable from the iron tools and food they provide."
"Beihu used the gold and silver they plundered from you to trade with them, and then they used the gold and silver to buy the resources of our countries. They could also bribe officials from various countries to develop and grow, and then find the right time to invade each country. When each country realizes By the time you ask questions, it's too late..." Diana said at the end, feeling ashamed.
Liang Xiao looked solemn.
He and Zhuge Hui both judged that the reason why Beihu was able to grow rapidly was due to the domestic capitulationists and collaborators, who secretly provided them with a lot of military supplies, including armor.
So Beihu has other foreign aid?
"The Tianri tribe also has an invincible 'Son of God'. This is an honor passed down from generation to generation by the strongest in their tribe. The cavalry who leads the Tianri tribe is unstoppable." Diana said, not forgetting to quietly Observe Liang Xiao’s reaction.
"Invincible?" Liang Xiao smiled.
"If one day they unite with Beihu to invade the Great Zhou Dynasty, please do not underestimate the enemy!" Diana warned.
Liang Xiao just nodded without refuting, but his face was full of disapproval.
Diana saw this and felt both joy and sorrow in her heart.
She can be sure that Liang Xiao will definitely be good at martial arts.
But the more confident a person is in martial arts, the easier it is to die in battle.
The Roman Empire had already lost too many such warriors when facing the Tianri Clan.
Diana then asked cautiously: "Has Marquis Lanling heard of the once famous family in Yanzhou, the Wenren clan?"
Liang Xiao nodded and said: "Back then, the Wenren clan was a prominent family in the previous dynasty, and was as wealthy as the country. It is said that the family was confiscated and exterminated by the faint king of the previous dynasty."
"Can we find their ancestral home?" Diana asked again.
"I haven't been to Yanzhou yet. I have to ask my emperor about this matter." Liang Xiao said without hesitation.
Diana hesitated: "Isn't it impolite to mention the previous dynasty to the Emperor Zhou?"
"As long as it's harmless to the country, it's okay to mention it." After Liang Xiao explained, he also asked, "But why are you interested in the Wenren family?"
"My grandfather is a descendant of the Wenren family. I will confess to the Emperor Zhou later." Diana replied.
Liang Xiao suddenly realized.
No wonder this girl looks like a mixed race beauty.
Liang Xiao chatted with Diana for a few more words and then left.
Weiss whispered: "Your Highness Diana, that is the wealth of your grandfather's family. Do you plan to just give it to Da Zhou?"
Diana explained: "We may have to stay in Dazhou for the rest of our lives, and no matter how much wealth we have, we will not be able to bring it back. If Dazhou treats us well enough and is willing to go north to invade the desert, it can be regarded as sharing the pressure for the empire, and it should be Support. If we can find these treasures, they will definitely be a great addition to the Zhou army and reflect our importance."
Weiss said helplessly: "Seventeen years ago when Beihu went south, one hundred thousand soldiers of the Great Zhou were beheaded. Such a blow was enough to make the people of the Great Zhou burst into pieces. It cannot be changed easily with money. We may be disappointed... "
Diana said: "I will act by ear. Besides, this is the land of dawn where heroes can be born, isn't it?"
Weiss could only nod silently.
He had witnessed the decline of the empire and no longer believed in these illusory things.
The land they and Diana were in now might be a precarious land that could fall apart at any time.
However, he really couldn't bear to hit His Highness again.
To the south of Runan, there is a camp in the deep mountains and old forests.
After listening to the report of the defeated generals, the chief minister's face turned green.
"A thousand people were defeated by a dozen people??"
"Tuobajie was captured alive by the caravan from Dingguo Hou Mansion? How do you ask me to explain to the Tuoba clan!!"
