This White Scar's banquet not only invited Soshyan, but also the various company commanders of the Astral Knights. However, Soshyan dismissed several company commanders as having something to do, and in the end only Ustad, Farzad, and Al Ming, Zaraton, the priest Yazdan, and the master of the armory Roglis participated. In addition, Soshyan also called Arash.
The banquet was held in the Bogda Hall of Quanzhou Palace. Its main body consists of three tent-style palaces lined up. The halls are connected by corridors. The main hall is more than 30 meters high and has a double-eaves structure. The hall is more than 20 meters high, with a single-layer eaves structure. The apse and corridors are 15 meters high. Looking down from a height, the entire hall looks like an eagle. The main hall looks like an eagle's head and body, and the two side halls look like an eagle. On the domes of the three palaces with the spread wings of the eagle, the golden glazed tiles are particularly dazzling under the bright sunshine. At the top is the cloud head flower made of blue glazed tiles, showing what the Chegris people admire. colors and patterns.
The banquet was held in the main hall. The interior here was still the same as other palaces in Quanzhou Palace. It was also decorated like a tent. The Space Marines sat in a circle on the felt, with a huge brazier in the middle.
A small low table was placed in front of everyone, with silver plates and huge wine bowls placed on it. Female attendants in long-sleeved costumes were constantly walking among the Space Marines, placing desserts, cheese and other items in their hands. dairy.
When everything was ready, Juba Khan stood up. He took a white silk scarf from the waiter's hand, then placed the wine bowl filled with white wine on the silk scarf, held it with both hands, and sang a song with a weird accent. , while walking towards Soshyan.
Seeing your sweaty horse,
I know you are coming from far away~
Guests come from beyond the sky,
The journey is full of hard work and dust,
Please drink this cup of kumiss~
Cups of milk wine show your mind,
They say that guests drink well~
We want to compete with you!
When the song ended, Juba Khan had already walked to Soshyan, bowed his head and raised the white silk scarf and wine above his head with both hands, signaling a toast.
Soshyan stood up quickly, took the silver bowl with both hands, and smiled to express his gratitude.
He had learned some of the customs of Chegris before coming here. Instead of drinking immediately, he dipped the ring finger of his right hand into wine three times. The first time he dipped it in wine, he flicked it to the sky, then he dipped it in wine and flicked it to the ground, and finally dipped it in wine and wiped it out. He touched his forehead, then raised his head and drank it all without missing a drop.
After Soshyan finished drinking the wine, Zhuba Khan took the silver bowl in the same gesture as when toasting, asked the maid to fill it up and walked to the next person, Second Company Commander Ustad.
As soon as he left, Subodeng Khan came to Soshyan.
At this time, Soshyan had a deeper understanding of the culture of Chegris. They treated guests regardless of their status. The guests were treated with the same etiquette. As the leader of the regiment, Juba Khan would also pay tribute to the company. The captains would toast, and the captains would toast him, the Chapter Master, in the same manner.
This kind of equal atmosphere is actually quite comfortable to get along with, although I am destined to drink a lot today——
Fortunately, Chegoris's milk wine is not very strong. By the standards of Space Marines, it is difficult to get drunk.
After toasting, the attendants served huge roasted whole lambs. These roasted golden and crispy animals were placed on rectangular wooden red lacquer trays. The only cutlery was a knife. Cut the meat into small pieces and eat it with your hands.
Soshiyang tried it for a while and found that it was indeed delicate, tender, and delicious.
"Come, let us respect the Emperor, the Empire, and the expeditionary force together!"
When Juba Khan raised his wine bowl, everyone responded.
After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Kosarohan suddenly introduced the situation of the Third Brotherhood to Soshiyan. Currently, the company has 86 soldiers, and all of them are equipped with motorcycles, speed attack boats and other vehicles.
The Third Brotherhood rarely operates as a company, and mostly operates in small and swift hunting parties, tracking the enemy from thousands of miles away, and finally giving them a fatal blow. Their duty is to hunt the enemy's most powerful and dangerous ones. leader or individual.
The Third Brotherhood's dedication to the art of hunting makes them uniquely dangerous in combat. Once an enemy location is located, nothing can stop these hunters from taking them down, especially the leader of the enemy force. Squads of the Brotherhood will perform They possess a rather strong desire to reach their victims and kill them, so the heads of Greenskin war bosses, Chaos Lords, and Tyranid leadership creatures often hang on the trophy racks of their vehicles.
Later, Corsaro also introduced his deputy, priest Jiako, to Soshyan.
When the Khan is summoned for a great hunt, the Brotherhood fights under the leadership of the priest Jakko.
"...Although brother Jia Kou is usually taciturn, in battle, he is a ferocious tiger."
When Kosarohan said this, Soshyan immediately stood up, picked up the wine bowl and came to Pastor Jiako, and handed the wine bowl to the other party's surprised gaze.
"This expedition depends on powerful hunting masters like you and Khan Kosaro."
"Captain Soshyan, you're welcome."
Jia Kou carefully took the wine bowl, drank it down in one gulp, and looked at Soshiyang with a much friendlier look.
Soshyan knew very well that in the face of these arrogant warriors, it was always useful to have a lower posture. He was able to go all the way, including the many benefits that humility brought him. Therefore, even if he became the supreme lord commander, He doesn't think too highly of himself either.
As long as he can treat his corporal with courtesy, he will have no shortage of powerful warriors.
After returning to his table, Soshyan looked at Juba Khan and said in a deep voice:
"The Great Khan of Juba, I would like to ask you something."
"But it doesn't matter."
"What do you think...what are the chances of winning this expedition?"
Juba Khan twisted his beard and thought for a moment, then said softly:
"The odds of winning...are only 20%."
As soon as these words came out, the Astral Knights frowned slightly, and the white-scarred warriors also whispered. After all, Juba Khan had said before that the expeditionary force could win, but now he said that the chance of victory was only 20%, so wasn't it him? Hit yourself in the mouth?
Arash ate the meat calmly, keeping his eyes on Soshyan.
Soshyan looked calm and did not refute or agree. He just stared at the great khans across the brazier.
"Please elaborate."
"My personal opinion is that there are five major difficulties in this expedition. First, the environment is difficult. As the weak point between subspace and reality, the maelstrom area is more treacherous and dangerous than outsiders imagine. Over the years, we have many ships. The ship got lost in it and sent out many scouts. Finally, it was discovered that the maelstrom area was not fixed. The maelstrom was actually a moving cosmic phenomenon, but its range of activities was relatively fixed. Therefore, the star map in the past was not necessarily certain in the present. It’s useful. If you are a warrior and don’t know the terrain, you will lose 20%.”
