Time flies by, and one year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Whether it was the world of Kyushu or the other world where the Karon Empire was located, Lu Wu did not do anything big. Apart from studying, sleeping, fishing, and occasionally teaching martial arts and educating people, he just enjoyed life peacefully, which made those who originally had some doubts about him. The Marquis of Larne was generally relieved, and various attempts to win over him became more frequent.
Marco (Lu Wu) accepted everything readily, but he didn't show any intention of surrendering.
The Marquis of Larne had expressed his dissatisfaction in private, and this slight dissatisfaction was promptly and appropriately communicated to Marco (Lu Wu).
Marco didn't say anything, he just asked for leave and left for a few days.
Soon after, news came that hundreds of big men had died silently overnight at the headquarters of the Yeya Mercenary Group (the mercenary group that Marco’s predecessor belonged to).
After Marco came back, he never heard any rumors again.
However, Marco (Lu Wu) is living a comfortable life, but it does not mean that the outside world is peaceful.
The Chu State in the Nine Provinces world, surrounded by enemies on three sides, suddenly rose up. It first pretended to attack the Wu State with all its strength to regain its lost territory, but then secretly transferred its elite soldiers and generals to the Chu-Yan border, and almost killed the Yan State general Jing who came to take advantage of the situation. Xingge, although Jing Xingge used his extremely tyrannical force to fight through the siege and escape, most of the 20,000 light cavalry and 3,000 personal soldiers were lost, which shocked the other countries for a while and wiped out the decline of Chu State.
Secondly, Han Gang, a new general of the Chu State, emerged. Although this man was not well-known, his combat power and strategies were truly amazing. First, he invited generals to fight in front of Weiming City for several days. Within a few days, he killed seventeen generals of the Wu State, and then he personally commanded them. Qingqi circumnavigated the city and cut off Wu's army's food route, and with the help of internal forces, they captured three cities in a row, almost turning Tonghe City into an isolated city.
During this period, Wu Chu set up his battle formations several times, and Wu Guo also suffered successive defeats. The coach of Wu Guo had no choice but to retreat to Tonghe City, put up a no-war card, and requested reinforcements from the country.
It is precisely because of this that the Yan State's careful work did not realize that the Chu State secretly transferred its main force to the Chu-Yan border.
Originally, the Wu State sent an envoy to ask Lu Wu to take action and ride a fast horse to kill Meng Ji. However, Lu Wu fell asleep frequently during this period, so Qiu Tong directly rejected Wu State's request, saying only that if Wu Guo really couldn't bear it, so she prepared to carry the ax herself and go into battle to support him.
The envoy of Wu State felt that Wu State had not yet fallen to the point where it needed Lu Wang Ji to save his life, so he declined Qiu Tong's kindness - even though Qiu Tong had some strength, most people still thought that she was just a small pendant on Lu Wu's thigh. How can you safely let a woman fight against a vicious man like Han Gang?
If something happens to Qiu Tong, it doesn't matter who Lu Wu's anger will be directed at.
Kyushu World is pretty good here.
In the world where the Karon Empire is located—let’s call it the world of the gods for the time being—the clouds of war are gradually beginning to spread.
Even if Lu Wu (Marco) huddles in the warrior training ground outside Keen City, he can gradually feel the cold wind of war.
The little girls from the Tinlin family, Alisa and Sansa, who came to visit, recently complained that the price of food has begun to rise. Although the increase is not much, the price increase during the harvest season is a bit wrong. Even though the Tinlin family does not rely on selling food. Make money, but many small businessmen in the Aier Chamber of Commerce rely on this to make a living.
Moreover, the prices of armor, weapons and iron ore have increased even more - although Alyssa sells them for a higher price, the purchase price of the goods has also increased.
The bards of the Karon Empire spread the stories of knights, warriors and ladies everywhere. Notices recruiting soldiers were posted all over Keen City, and there were even recruitment notices in the warrior training ground.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk-" Someone knocked on the door of the vice dean's office.
"Come in." Marco (Lu Wu) ordered without raising his head.
"Teacher, you are so keen on learning, you make us students feel very ashamed." Andra, who had a gray crew cut, poked her head out of the door, made a face, and said with a smile.
Andra Kordo Vanla Keen is the second son of a remote branch of the Keen family. He is seventeen years old this year. Although he also bears the surname Keen, his family life is quite poor and is much poorer than the average. Common people are not very wealthy, but their brains are quite good.
, and also know some words.
So he saw from the notice that a warrior training ground had been opened outside the city, and outstanding students would be recommended to join the army, so he was the first to come and sign up. Because he could talk things out (and also because his surname was Keen), he soon Be appointed as student representative soon.
And because of Andra's quick thinking and ability to do things, she is now Marco's student assistant, and she also has the status of a registered disciple.
"What's up?"
"The trainee students have been selected. Teacher, look at-" Andela asked respectfully.
Hearing his words, Marco closed the book in his hand, put it on the table, and ordered: "Let them go to the auditorium, I will be there soon."
"Okay!" After Andra agreed, she dwarfed first, then scurried out like a spring, and disappeared on the second floor in the blink of an eye.
This is a quick-start movement technique that Marco adapted from the ranger profession's forest-penetrating movement technique.
Andra has only studied with Marco for two months. It is definitely nonsense to say that she has obtained Marco's true inheritance, but being able to use this little skill anytime and anywhere is also a matter of hard work - on weekdays, even in He never forgot to practice these steps in school.
This is one of the reasons why he became Marco's registered disciple.
As for the reason for selecting some students, it was because the first batch of students at the warrior training ground had been training for half a year and it was time to go out and try their skills.
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
In order not to ruin their reputation, they only selected some students with outstanding performance and were led by teachers to participate in several light-intensity actual battles. Since this was the first battle to become famous in the training ground, Dean Jierke discussed with him. Regardless of killing a chicken with a knife, ask this legend to personally lead the team.
(The warrior training ground is not a noble academy. The admission targets are those young civilians who are healthy and have the desire to join the army. They will not train for several years or more like training strong men - that is the method used by nobles to train their own children, regardless of Neither the cost nor the various supporting resources will make it popular.)
Great Hall.
Nearly two hundred students gathered together, everyone was whispering to each other. Although the voices were not loud, there was still some noise in the auditorium.
Marco (Lu Wu) walked into the auditorium.
The auditorium suddenly became quiet.
Marco walked up to the podium at the front of the auditorium and glanced down.
Limited by the construction technology at this time, the auditorium was actually not very large. It was supported by two rows of pillars in the middle, which divided the entire auditorium space.
There were less than two hundred students, and the auditorium was almost full.
Some students still have green faces, but some students are already full of weather.
This is very normal, because the warrior training ground is not a place where children are taught to play house. Although teenagers and young people are given priority in recruiting students, some mercenaries who are not doing well will also pay for further training to improve their status. Earn higher commissions.
Marco said a few clichés as a prelude, and then went directly to the topic:
"You are all students with relatively good training results. However, training is training and actual combat is actual combat. The two are different. Tomorrow, you will leave for Boluer City to participate in the battle against Mi Viscount Leiter's war - of course, there is money to be won, but there is also the risk of losing one's life. If you don't want to go, you can leave the auditorium now."
