Finally, from the top of the third floor where the sound gradually fell silent, the person who was thrown out of the window after being smashed once again turned out to be a fat man with a naked body; but he still had a stench that was unavoidable.
However, it was Jiang Tian who directly used violent demolition methods to clear the second floor through walls and rooms. An elderly officer summoned the remaining men and worked hard to organize an ambush and sneak attack; after arriving on the third floor, he never encountered anyone again. There was no decent resistance, but only a few servants running around in panic.
However, the nobleman of the Duchy of Milan, who was the commander/captain of the Grand Company, and the Baron Penduba who was said to be from Vadour by the captives, disappeared because of this. There was only a messy exclusive room, a handsome young man with a pot head whose clothes were torn to pieces, and several overturned jewelry boxes.
In the end, Jiang Tian, who found nothing, found Baron Penduba in the utility room at the entrance of the stairs, who was trying to use a lot of unemptied toilet excrement water as a disguise and protective color; because he was too smelly, Jiang Tian He didn't want to make contact, but he tried to fight back using local materials.
Speaking of which, now that I have traveled a lot on the African continent, there are three things that Jiang Tian hates the most; one is gay people who like to spread malignant diseases everywhere, and the second is the inability to control the natural abilities of the lower body and even reproductive isolation. Uncle Black, the third thing is the political correctness of the American white left.
Therefore, Jiang Tian gave him a ride without hesitation. However, he suddenly noticed that the fat, naked pig who was covered in blood was not dead yet, and slowly tried to crawl away... A moment later, he stood in the town in the classic posture of the Titanic. The highest point.
“Monjoy”
"For Saint Cyran"
"Forward! Cameron."
As the charging slogans rang out one after another, and bursts of kicking and rolling were heard on the streets in the distance; the last group of soldiers from the Principality of Milan came to fight in an organized manner, and their morale collapsed on the spot. They did not hesitate to drop their weapons and injured companions, turned around and fled into the darkness.
At this time, what slowly emerged from the darkness at the other end of the street was just a few members of the third team, leading many horses and kicking their feet while blowing horns. But the last trick left by Jiang Tian finally came into use.
At this time, many subordinates, led by Portos, Thiago and Madurand, also lowered their weapons, took off their round felt hats or wide-brimmed hats, and faced the people standing quietly above the town hall, proudly Looking down at Jiang Tian, who was like a living being, he bowed his head and bowed in salute.
Later, in the cellar below the town hall, there was an unexpected discovery, or one of the people imprisoned; although he was old and had a rough face, he had frosty white hair on the temples, sharp eyes, and a short and thick beard. It was prying like a steel needle.
Even though he was covered in dirt and old and new scars, with only a pair of shorts whose original color could not be seen, and his limbs were tightly restrained by chains, there was still a vague sense of threat; it was like the wildness in the cage had not disappeared. , like a ferocious beast waiting to break out at any time.
When Jiang Tian saw this, he looked at it carefully with interest, until the other party slowly woke up from the coma with the slight sound of the iron chain rubbing. However, he opened his eyes to reveal a pair of rare amber eyes. Tong Kong also shrank slightly when he saw Jiang Tian.
"Who are you and why are you imprisoned here?" Jiang Tian then took the initiative to speak up: "Let me guess, have you ever committed a major crime or offended a powerful person? Or have you been responsible? Have a special mission? Are you being tortured like this?"
"I... am just an old hunter who is old and frail." The old man said in a hoarse voice: "Unfortunately, I had some misunderstandings and disputes with the soldiers in the town in the tavern, and was regarded as a spy and spies of the enemy. , that’s why we ended up in this situation.”
"That's not what you said about your weapons and belongings." Jiang Tian didn't bother with him too much. "I can return all the things to you, but in any case, since it was my people who saved you, I hope you can pay some compensation and price."
"I don't know, sir, what kind of compensation does this require?" The frost-haired old hunter pondered for a moment before saying, "To be honest, I was invited here, but unfortunately my employer no longer existed after I arrived, and I had nothing left. Yes, even food and accommodation are on credit from the tavern."
"The reward I want is not money, but your martial arts skills and experience in the field." Jiang Tian smiled slightly and said: "I would like to ask you to be an instructor temporarily and teach your subordinates some basic common sense. I will also try my best to provide you with all the information you need." Needed until things settle down again.”
"Okay..." The old hunter on the chain just thought for a moment and agreed; then he was free and had a clean outfit. After he was fully dressed again, he slightly saluted Jiang Gao's dark hat and said, "Take that. Come down, sir, you will be my employer."
However, at the end of the victory, there is still a less harmonious reverberation. "Alfonso!" With the shouts of his companions, the young cobbler's apprentice, who was injured and bled profusely in the battle but was unconscious until he collapsed, became the only victim of this victory.
In addition, in the battles in the outer circle and in front of the town hall, more than a dozen people were also injured to varying degrees. The most serious one was shot through the thigh by a crossbow, which was then embedded in the bone; it was Jiang Tian himself. He dug out the remaining arrow clusters and stopped the bleeding to save his life.
Therefore, in this short period of sadness, Jiang Tian also took advantage of the situation and held a simple but grand farewell ceremony for the fallen. Then he lit the pyre with his own hands and announced that he would carry his ashes until one day they would be sent back to the cemetery of his hometown church for burial.
Then, the remaining people temporarily put aside their sorrow and, together with the few townspeople who had left their homes after the disaster, enjoyed the post-war celebration street meal; except for the restriction of drinking, all food and drinks were banned. Take it out and put it on the street eucalyptus board for you to use.
I saw each of them singing hometown songs with different voices, or getting together to arm-wrestle and wrestle... Then Madurand personally brought a colorful porcelain plate filled with food to Jiang Tian. He hesitated and whispered: "Sir, I want to confess something... In fact, I am just a deserter and a criminal..."
Normally, the main soldiers of the kingdom's standing army are small peasants and rich peasants from urban civilians and royal territories; and the non-commissioned officers and low-level officers as the backbone are recruited from many feudal knights and rural gentry; The middle and high-level generals are nobles appointed by the royal family.
They are permanently stationed in some important fortresses of royal territories, or are responsible for guarding some large and medium-sized cities with rich output. In the ongoing foreign wars, when it is necessary to expand the army, a recruitment order will be issued again, and the nobles of each province will prepare their own armed forces and private tribes to participate in the war.
However, anything that looks beautiful will inevitably have many drawbacks after operating for a long time. Such as coveting comfort. A noble family in the capital that has lost its martial spirit will hire people to serve or even replace them as vassals; the Madurand family is the victim.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
After a long time, it was inevitable that they would become weak and bankrupt; and then in his generation, in order to save the last bit of self-cultivated land, they would serve in the army in place of a certain master at the expense of debt relief; and then, halfway through, they met five people. The moon storm and the abdication of the royal family spread to the military.
Some of the royal army were demobilized on the spot, some swore allegiance to the new government, some broke into pieces due to civil strife and fire, and some were directly brought back to the aristocratic territory by organized groups, and became The power of separatism loomed in the place, but Madurand chose to flee home.
Then he discovered that his family's land was gone, his mother, siblings had all been evicted, and his future wife had also married someone else. Just because he was asked to replace the serving master, there was no intention to fulfill the promise; in other words, this insignificant matter was forgotten.
Then on impulse, he took advantage of the turmoil and chaos of the May storm to sneak into a high-class salon, and pushed the young gentleman and two noble companions who were fooling around together one after another in the midst of disputes and fights. He crashed down the tower, and then successfully received a wanted warrant that was beyond recognition.
Therefore, he could only settle down his family at the cost of money from selling himself, and hide again in the army called by the new government, in order to avoid the detectives and mercenaries recruited by the nobles who had lost their children, and the bounties offered by CICC. And after saying this, he was relieved and looking forward to something.
"That's it?" However, Jiang Tian shook his head disapprovingly: "I thought it was some kind of act of assassinating the king, killing the king, breaking into the palace and breaking the ban; what's the big deal about this little grudge, isn't it what you did all the way here? , are they all false? Or will you retaliate for this, or betray and betray me? "
"If it were me, I would find a way to seize more power and power." Then Jiang Tian interrupted him again and said, "Then he would stand upright in front of them, and then admire his wife, children and sisters reluctantly. , the joy of crying and begging for mercy.”
"Thank you, sir, for your trust and encouragement." However, when Madurand heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened. He only wondered what kind of ambition and ambition this officer had to despise the royal family and nobles so much. Status and authority!
But secretly he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and felt much happier and more comfortable; the gloom on his face dissipated as a result. Then he couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that the sir is actually a believer who respects and pursues Orientalism?"
The so-called Orientalism refers to some ideological trends and their evolutions spread by the Seris people who arrived on the Mediterranean coast hundreds of years ago. Among them are feudal centralized political strategies highly praised by the royal families of various countries, and some are regarded as floods. The trespassing thoughts that are strictly forbidden by beasts.
Even the mainland Orthodox and Catholic churches, which originally claimed to have the most devout and pure beliefs, had many internal disagreements because of this, and even evolved into a major heresy trial and purge event second only to the Ephesus Council in the past.
"..." However, Jiang Tian just smiled and said nothing at all. Because of his identity, he really doesn't know much about it, let alone talk about it. But no matter what, this is the first subordinate he has formally expressed his allegiance to, and it is also a good start.
