King’s Kingdom

"But..." Adler squinted his eyes to see if anyone around him could hear the conversation between the two, and when he saw that there were no eavesdroppers, he whispered: "I know all the people in Ximu Village, and there is absolutely no you in our village. A guy with such a stature, so who are you?"

Pizarro blinked and said, "I am an orphan, and I managed to find relatives in Ximu Village. If I defected to them, then I will naturally be from Ximu Village, but I don't want to cause them too much trouble, so I came to join the army. !"

After hearing this, Adler was full of disbelief and denied: "But I just heard that you are not only literate, but also able to read and write, coupled with your tall and strong figure, this is a lonely life. Can an orphan have it?"

"I just, I was only adopted by kind people, and the people who adopted me were relatively wealthy, so I could read and develop such a figure. In fact, I was indeed an orphan!"

Pizarro's expression was a little unnatural, but he concealed it very well, and his speech was reasonable. If ordinary people don't think about it for a while, they won't understand at all. In fact, even if they think of the loopholes in the words, they will not choose to continue. When asked, there are thoughts that have nothing to do with oneself.

It's a pity that this Adler is not such a person. He is very thoughtful. Even when life is extremely difficult, he will seize every opportunity to enrich himself.

Just now he told the secretary that he knew how to read, but it was not entirely a lie. He could indeed recognize all letters and hundreds of words. Although there were still some problems in writing and reading, he was definitely considered a high-level intellectual among the common people. .

Such a person is very clear about where his current life comes from. Since he was a child, listening to wandering bards extol those loyal and righteous people, the poems and stories of holy kings and ministers, let him understand many things.

To have such a prosperous and prosperous life today, all comes from the benevolent and merciful King of Lanyin, who used the strongest means to achieve the most merciful goal.

He thinks and hopes to become the unparalleled loyal characters in the legend, so he feels that he can't let an unknown person join the army of His Majesty the King.

Once he has ulterior motives, or is a spy sent by other forces, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Adler looked up at Pizarro with a stern face and said, "If this is the case, I believe that the person who adopted you will definitely give you a good future. Your words have too many loopholes. I really can't believe you, and I will tell you the truth. identity, otherwise I will report it to the adults!"

Although Adler doubted the identity of the other party, he was still a kind person. He did not expose Pizarro immediately, but chose to confirm it himself. Otherwise, he would not need such an interrogation at all, as long as he said that the other party was not a real Westwood Village resident , and then a simple verification, you can arrest him.

Falsely reporting one's identity and place of origin is a serious matter in the Lanyin Kingdom, because the country's military system is basically linked to household registration, and every professional soldier has his place of residence and name on his nameplate.

In addition, the current Lanyin Kingdom's armed forces other than the professional army, that is, the link army system, also completely depend on household registration.

"Okay..." Pizarro stared at Adler for a long time before nodding, bending down helplessly, and leaned close to the other person's ear.

Adler couldn't accept this kind of close contact, so he took a half step back, but seeing that the other party had no other thoughts, he put his ear close again.

"Actually, I'm from the North, and I'll be sixteen next month, but my mother won't allow me to join the army, and His Majesty doesn't want anyone under twenty in the North's conscription this time. Recruiting, I just wanted to try my luck here..."

"Okay!" Pizarro straightened up again, spread out his hands and said, "You know it all, you don't want to look at my famous brand, right? This thing should not be popular in the south, I don't think you have a few of you. Brand name."

Adler nodded, glanced at the nameplate that Pizarro put in his pocket, and then his face was full of disbelief, almost sluggish.

"You mean, you are only fifteen years old now?" Adler's expression twisted, looking up at Pizarro, and asked word by word.

"Tsk, I'll be sixteen next month, rounding up I'm sixteen now!" Pizarro said with a frown.

"Okay... You mean you're sixteen now, right?" Adler's expression was still indescribable.

"Of course! Is there any problem?"

"You can grow to 1.8 meters at the age of sixteen, isn't that a problem? How tall are you?" Adler felt that he was a little suspicious of life.

"Oh, maybe it's good to eat, it's not important, I just hope you can help me keep a secret, don't tell me about it, okay?" Pizarro curled his lips and stretched out his right hand to Adler. .

"Uh, I still think you should stay at home, so go back. In a few years, you may be taller and stronger. In that case, you may become a knight. You have such a figure, don't you have a family Have you ever been a noble?"

"Hi~www.readwn.com~ That was a long time ago. It seems that my great-grandfather was a nobleman, but my grandfather did not have a title. He followed the father of the previous king to the north and settled here."

"However, I still want to make achievements on the battlefield. If I stay in the north now, I have to do farm work every day. If I can't finish it, I have no time to train myself. I don't want to live like that again!"

"That's fine, but I have a condition!" Adler looked at Pizarro, thought about it, and then said, "I won't expose this matter, and I will cover for you, but in exchange, you have to Teach me to read and spell!"

"how?"

"No problem!" Pizarro readily agreed. He was naturally forthright and didn't care about Adler's trivial matter.

The conscription work is going very smoothly. The 2,400 people added by the Central Military Region have been assembled and are undergoing intensive training.

The six military districts in the Southern Twelve County were also selected in four months, and under such screening, the average height of the soldiers reached an astonishing 1.75 meters. Except for the tallest group of people, In terms of physical fitness, it is almost not inferior to the Northern Military Region.

The only difference between the two sides is the length of training time. Recruits from the north only need more than four months of training to enter the battlefield after enlisting in the army, while soldiers from the South Eighth Military Region need at least one year of training. And whether you can go to the battlefield depends on the progress of the training.

With the expansion of the army again, the number of armaments of the Lanyin Kingdom has once again been stretched. Although the blacksmiths have not stopped building weapons and armor for two years, the expansion of the army this time is too large, even if two The accumulation of years is not enough to supply the armament of 9,600 soldiers.
