The Rhapsody of Mounted Blade Players

This also led to He Xiaomiao completely having fun when He Cheng was not at home. That is because Ye Tianlong often wiped out the wild monsters in the wild. Otherwise, He Xiaomiao would often go out to play wildly, and he would probably be jumped out of nowhere. One of the robbers or pirates was killed.

In order to prevent his son from continuing to play like this outside in the future, He Cheng decided to send him to kindergarten.

This kindergarten is still a new thing that the Qinglong Empire has just established. If He Cheng hadn't been a soldier and could read the newspapers distributed by it every day, he probably wouldn't have known about the existence of this kindergarten.

Kindergartens are different from schools. The main task is not to let children learn various knowledge. Instead, teachers lead the students to play various games. It is said that it is to help the children better expand their horizons. , develop their own interests and hobbies.

Like schools, this kindergarten actually does not charge any fees. Parents only need to pick up and drop off their children in time every day.

But since most parents don't know the news yet, not many parents are sending their children there now.

As for the little guy He Xiaomiao, in He Cheng's opinion, he should also meet the conditions for entering the kindergarten. After all, the kindergarten is specially designed to accept preschool children. His son is only three years old now, and he is still far from the age where he can officially go to school. Three years, just in these three years, I will send him to the kindergarten. He will start the elementary school first. If he then enters the school again, he will be ahead of the starting line compared with other children!

So He Cheng told his parents about his idea.

Although He Cheng's father He Dazhuang and mother Liu Caiyun didn't quite understand what the kindergarten was, they all agreed with He Cheng's idea after hearing that the emperor of the Qinglong Empire personally ordered the kindergarten to be set up.

After all, after they moved here, their life was getting better and better day by day. The emperor of the Qinglong Empire was really kind to the common people like them! He is completely different from Zhao Ji, the foolish king of the Song Dynasty! These two old men believed that Ye Tianlong, the emperor of the Qinglong Empire, would never harm them, and they were now supporting each other's policies with practical actions.

He Cheng was very happy to see that his parents agreed to his suggestion. However, in order to let his very naughty son cooperate well in going to kindergarten, He Cheng deliberately caught the other party in front of him and warned him that if he did not If he goes to kindergarten obediently, he will break He Xiaomiao's legs when he comes back from this battle.

After threatening him, He Cheng gave him another sweet date. He took out an oil paper bag from his pocket and handed it to his father.

"Dad! These are all candies I gave out when I was training in the military camp! If He Xiaomiao goes to kindergarten obediently, you should give him one every day!"

After hearing what He Cheng said, He Dazhuang opened the oil paper bag and took a look, and found that there were fruit candies of different colors inside. If he smelled them carefully, he could smell a sweet aroma mixed with fruit flavor.

As soon as He Xiaomiao saw these fruit candies, his eyes immediately lit up, and he reached out to grab one to try.

However, He Cheng had been guarding against him for a long time! Upon seeing this, he immediately slapped He Xiaomiao's thieving hand aside, and then warned him with a serious face: "If you dare to rob or steal, I will not only beat you when I come back, but I’ll break your legs and chop off these two claws of yours!”

When He Xiaomiao saw his father's serious expression and tone, he knew that the other party was serious, so he could only sit back and drool while looking at the fruit candies eagerly.

When He Cheng saw that the boy was finally honest, he took a piece of fruit candy and stuffed it into He Xiaomiao's mouth. At the same time, he also asked his parents to take a piece of candy to try.

It was the first time for He Cheng's parents to eat this kind of fruit candy. After putting the candy in their mouths, they were shocked by the sweetness of the fruit candy. He Cheng's father, He Dazhuang, even exclaimed: "This candy is good." So sweet!”

He Cheng's mother Liu Caiyun even said to He Cheng: "Son! Don't you keep some of this good stuff for yourself?"

"Mom, don't worry that I won't have anything to eat. Our army often distributes these things, and I heard from the superiors above that when the war officially starts, there will be more of all kinds of things distributed!" He Cheng smiled at his mother. replied.

What He Cheng said is true. Ye Tianlong has always attached great importance to the treatment of his soldiers. Some time ago, he found that many soldiers secretly bought various cigarettes and alcohol, so he specially asked his superiors to pay the soldiers below him every week. Give out some snacks. After all, tobacco and alcohol are not good things and are harmful to the body! Especially for those recruits who have just started practicing martial arts, it is even more harmful and will seriously affect the training progress of these recruits.

Therefore, Ye Tianlong chose to distribute some delicious snacks to the recruits, and at the same time strengthened supervision in this area, hoping to help the recruits successfully quit smoking and drinking.

Others don't know, but He Cheng loves the snacks handed out above. He has eaten all the ones that are not easy to preserve. Only these fruit hard candies are not easy to spoil, so he has saved them all. Come down and prepare to take it back as a snack for your son.

When He Cheng's mother Liu Caiyun heard her son talking about the war, she couldn't help but have a look of worry on her face. After all, the battlefield was full of fighting and the swords had no eyes. No one could guarantee that she could come back safely. She was now afraid of her son. If someone accidentally dies on the battlefield, then there won’t even be a young person left in this family!

But Liu Caiyun couldn't say anything about letting her son become a deserter. After all, she knew very well that Ye Tianlong, the emperor of the Qinglong Empire, was good enough to the common people like them. If they didn't support each other, the Qinglong Empire would collapse. , it would be difficult for them to find such an emperor who loves his people like a son!

Speaking of which, He Cheng's parents are only in their forties. However, due to hard work all year round and often not having enough to eat, He Cheng's parents are all gray-haired and look like they are in their fifties or sixties. .

If He Cheng had not made a decisive decision to move his family to Ye Tianlong's rule, his parents would have died of exhaustion within a few years.

After telling his parents about his experiences in the military camp, He Cheng pulled his father into the room and handed over all the military pay he had saved during this period to his father.

The currency under Ye Tianlong's current rule is still mainly metal currency. This is mainly because the people still don't trust paper money, so it cannot be promoted on a large scale.

Most of the military pay for He Fang and his soldiers is some silver coins. These silver coins made by the Qinglong Empire contain enough silver, are exquisitely made, and are regular in size. There is almost no difference in the weight of each coin, so although they were just launched, they are very It is so popular that many businessmen from other places will specially purchase these silver coins of the Qinglong Empire.

To be honest, it was the first time for He Cheng's father, He Dazhuang, to get so many silver coins. These silver coins were about five centimeters in diameter. On the front, they were engraved with a lifelike dragon flying in the clouds and mist. On the back, there was a big one dollar written on it. Two characters and a line of small characters of Blue Dragon Empire Royal Bank.

The purchasing power of one of these silver coins is roughly equivalent to one hundred yuan in the real world. As a superior soldier, He Cheng's monthly military pay is five thousand, so there are a full fifty silver coins in this bag, which is heavy and a little bit... Portion.

He Dazhuang also knew that wealth should not be revealed, so he quickly found an old clay pot in the house and hid all the silver coins in it. He also deliberately placed a few salted fish on it to cover it up, and finally covered it with a stone slab. stand up.

Because Ye Tianlong purchased a large amount of food directly from reality, the price of food in the Qinglong Empire is now very low. With just these fifty silver coins, He Cheng's parents and He Xiaomiao can sustain themselves for more than a year if they save some food. From this, we can also see the high wages of the soldiers of the Qinglong Empire.

After that, He Cheng stayed at home for two days, helping his parents with a lot of work, and then rushed back to the military camp to report on the third day.

Ye Tianlong couldn't help but feel a little excited when he looked at the [-] troops under his command. After all, the Kingdom of Swadia that he had to deal with this time was different from the Kingdom of Sirona. Not only was the land area larger, but the population was also larger. There are many, and with the support of those demons behind it, it will definitely be more difficult to take it down than the Kingdom of Sirona.

However, Ye Tianlong likes this kind of more challenging battles. The previous battle to destroy the Kingdom of Sirona can be said to be uneventless. A battlefield to destroy the country was like an armed march. Ye Tianlong did not take any action. Finished.

In this war of annihilation against the Kingdom of Swadia, Ye Tianlong felt that he should be able to stretch his muscles.

Because the Kingdom of Nord has never signed an armistice agreement with the Kingdom of Swadia before, the two countries are still in a state of war in theory. Therefore, Ye Tianlong, who inherited the land and people of the Kingdom of Nord, does not need to negotiate with Swadia. If the Kingdom of Asia declares any kind of war, it only needs to wait until the army is completely assembled before it can begin.

King Haraus also knew very well that after Ye Tianlong finished cleaning up the Kingdom of Sirona, it was likely that his Swadia Kingdom would be in trouble next, so during this period, he was also seizing this last bit. Time to expand the military and prepare for war.

As the largest and most prosperous country on the continent of Calradia, the Kingdom of Swadia has a population of more than seven million, so its war potential is very high. This time, King Haraus conquered all the countries in the country in one fell swoop. All the young people who could handle weapons were recruited to form an army of more than [-] people.

For such a large army, regardless of whether it can fight or not, just reporting this number is enough to scare people. It’s no wonder that many generals in history like to exaggerate the number of their troops. After all, if they can rely on the astonishing number of troops to scare them into surrender, there is no need to risk their lives and fight with the enemy. Fighting.

However, Ye Tianlong is not a coward who will be intimidated by this mere [-]-strong army. After he learned that King Haraus had recruited so many soldiers, he was just worried that it would not take more than ten years after the Swadia Kingdom was defeated. It is difficult to recover after eight years. Even if he wants to recruit soldiers from here in the future, he may not be able to find suitable sources of soldiers.
