PS: This chapter is 5200 words, I wish you all a happy reading!

Old World, 2513 imperial calendar, early February.

The snow in the town of Genn has not yet cleared, but the whole city has fallen into a frenzy of carnival. After waiting for more than a year, the citizens of Genn finally returned to the soldiers of the expedition. They will be the most enthusiastic. Applause and cheers were dedicated to the returning expedition army, and the highest honor was given to them. Inside and outside the town, especially the burghers, everyone was holding things and food, and surrounded the road on both sides, flowers and ribbons were floating in the air. .

In recent years, a series of military victories and economic development have led to the emergence of a large number of burghers, and with it people's sense of national pride and identity, Jean Town, as Lane's earliest arrival and first development The town has now formed a large city with an area of ​​several times and a permanent population of 50,000.

Don’t look at a city with a permanent population of 50,000 from the perspective of some previous lives. The permanent population of Curona, the capital of Brittany, is only 150,000. There are several big cities in the old world, and Brunswick is almost the same now. There are 300,000 permanent residents, Nur varies between 300,000 and 400,000, Middenheim is 150,000, the entire city of Tarabeheim plus the surrounding suburban villages are about 250,000, and most provincial capitals are also On the scale of 30,000 to 50,000 permanent residents.

Ryan stood on the balcony of his duke's castle. The king looked at the land that belonged to him and his city. As the first place he came to Brittany, he always had a different kind of view on Jean. emotion.

What appeared in front of the king was a splendid scene. The city walls of Jin Town were now ten meters high. Different from the low-rise buildings before, there were double-storey wooden houses, workshops, bars, The temple and those higher-level noble residences, as well as the new guild buildings and larger military camps, he saw that the whole city was full of vitality, and the smoke curled up into the sky.

In the distance, he saw the dotted villages outside the city, he saw the shadow of the Sharon forest in the distance, he saw the Chinon River that had just thawed, he looked at the rivers and mountains that belonged to him, he looked at the sky in the distance, the king slightly Nodding, the years of hard work and struggle have been worth it.

"Lane, what are you doing? Don't take a break?" A gentle female voice came from behind Ryan, and the lake **** witch Morgiana was wearing a transparent glass, purple jade and plain gauze dress and slowly approached from behind. , Morgiana's face was still a little sleepy and couldn't stop blushing, and her walking posture was also a little unnatural. She never left the room when she wore this gauze skirt. The slender legs under the skirt were wearing a pair of translucent White crystal unicorn velvet suspender stockings and a pair of crystal sandals fully set off the pure and cold temperament of the lake **** witch. Morgiana walked slowly to Ryan's side, took the initiative to lean into his arms, and leaned against him. He whispered, "It's cold outside, go back inside."

Only in front of Ryan, the witch of the lake **** will show this gentle and pleasant side.

"Haha~" Ryan picked up Morgiana by the waist, and the witch of the lake **** obeyed him without even struggling. Ryan closed the door of the balcony, and the floor was covered with a thick carpet. Orika had already When breakfast was delivered, the dark elf was wearing a full maid suit, white suspender stockings and black lace-up high-heeled shoes. She looked at Morgiana like this, and her eyes flashed with ridicule and playfulness. She put down the breakfast: "Master, good breakfast. already."

This room is the prayer room on the third floor of the castle. It is strictly forbidden for anyone except Ryan, Suria, Orika and Morgiana to enter. Usually this is where Ryan used to worship and pray. Of course, Morgiana only appears in the The Duke's Castle is basically the place to stay, especially on Sundays. The two often pray together. Although most of the time they are in the fairy tower in the lake, they are occasionally in the prayer room. At this time, the prayer room is more It is strictly forbidden for outsiders to approach.

The king's piety has been affirmed by nobles and commoners more than once. His Majesty Ryan is really a pious king! It is worthy of being the "Pious" King Ryan!

The two sat down for breakfast, Morgiana lay on Ryan's body lazily and refused to get down, she took the initiative to pick up a fork and forked a piece of maple candy croissant: "Ah~ Ryan, don't move, open your mouth, I'll feed you you."

"...I'll do it myself, Morgiana." Ryan put his arms around Morgiana's waist from behind, and the king was really uncomfortable with this.

"You've been here for more than a year, and that's how you compensated me? Ryan?" Morgiana was unhappy, and the lake **** witch held a maple sugar croissant and insisted: "Just for me and Sulia to help you solve the problem in the back. So many things, Ryan, come on, ah~"

"Okay, ah~" Ryan had to open his mouth.

Then Morgiana carefully sliced ​​the croissant, smeared it with jam, and continued to feed Ryan. She leaned back on Ryan's arms, only to feel that the resentment and dissatisfaction over the past year had vanished.

Moreover, the witch of the lake **** just received the oracle from the fairy in the lake two days ago. Thinking of the arrangement of the goddess, Morgiana couldn't help but feel a little sweet. She has only one thought left in her mind, and that is to accompany Ryan in this way. Go all the way.

Breakfast was Arabic coffee, jam, omelettes, croissants, maple croissants and sausages. Ryan and Morgiana were eating one bite at a time, discussing recent events, and Morgiana's voice was relaxed. Said: "Lane, so the empire will have civil strife? Shall we make some preparations in advance?"

"No, I know Karl Franz and Boris Todbringer. The relationship between these two people... is very strange." Ryan shook his head, and the king tightened the lake **** witch in his arms, using In a reminiscence tone, he said: "Boris Todblinger's desire to become the wolf emperor is no longer news in Middenheim. Even when I returned to White Wolf City to report, those white wolf knights and barbarians The Dunguards are openly discussing the possibility of the Wolf Emperor."

"Ah? Then why do you think they won't fight?" Morgiana was surprised, and she pressed: "Isn't this the easiest situation to fight? Like you and Lawn? After you left , I have tried twice, and I have confirmed that Raun really has no ideas about the throne. If he has ideas, just like Boris, then how can you both be at peace?"

"No, the relationship between Boris and Karl... is very strange. They usually oppose each other, hate each other, sneer at each other, and do everything they can to ridicule. The Rick guards call Boris a wolf cub, a white wolf knight. They think Carl is a puppy, but that's normal, and the real thing is that there's actually a strange sympathy between Boris and Carl, which is simply called 'As expected of my nemesis' or The feeling of 'As expected of my biggest opponent', in a serious situation, they can safely give their backs to each other."

"An opponent, a teammate, a confidant, and an enemy?" Morgiana understood a little, but the witch of the Lake God didn't pay attention to this matter. Since Ryan said not to worry, then don't worry. , she just wanted to enjoy some alone time with Ryan now.

It is also quite interesting to say that on the night of Poldro, Ryan was originally going to meet Katzenberg, his chief general, and his two courtiers, Steve and Geffen, but he just ate it. After the meal, the impatient Teresa slipped over immediately, and Ryan was dumbfounded, but considering that the sorceress had indeed been separated from him for a long time, he met the sorceress first.

It turned out that it was only ten minutes later that Morgiana also appeared, and the witch of the lake **** confirmed that Suria had settled with Francois outside and immediately changed into a set of "final clothes" and slipped into Lane's bedroom.

What happened later... It's hard to describe in words. Anyway, Teresa only felt ashamed to see Ryan now. As soon as she returned to the territory, she hid in her wizard's tower. Instead, Morgiana took this opportunity to occupy more of Ryan's time.

Orika looked at Morgiana, a little woman and a contented feeling. She was very upset for some reason, very upset. The dark elf deliberately walked up to Morgiana and started cleaning. She took the mopping tool and zoomed in. Voice: "His Royal Highness Morgiana, can you clean the room yourself on Sundays?"

"What do you mean?!" Morgiana raised her head from Ryan's arms, and she said to Orika viciously and flushed at the same time: "What the **** are you trying to do?!"

"Look, you've done a good job, you've made it difficult for me to clean!" Olika squinted, and after spending many years under Ryan's command, her skin has basically returned to white, and only a faint light remains. Wheat-colored, sneering in the amber eyes of the personal maid: "In the future, I will simply push a cart of sheets in and put them in on Sundays. You can change them yourself, do you need them?"

"...You!" Morgiana almost fainted on the spot, she was powerless to refute Olika's words, and seeing Ryan's somewhat playful and reminiscent expression, she patted Ryan's chest with her hands in shame: "Forget it, forget it all for me! "

"Hahaha~" Ryan smiled a little proudly. The king didn't say much. After breakfast, he got up: "I will first go to the old guard camp to preside over the retirement ceremony, and then I will go to Teresa and Aurora, Stop by, do you want to come with me? Orika, Morgiana?"

"We? How can we go shopping together?" Morgiana was very moved. When she knew how sensational the Lake God Witch and the King of Knights would be when they appeared on the street at the same time, it wasn't a strange thing, but shopping was definitely not a problem. possible.

"Let's go in the carriage." Ryan nodded: "We can stay in the carriage, it will take some time to go to the wizard tower of ice, we can have lunch at the wizard tower, I have something to do with Teresa and Aurora Say."

Stay in the car? Morgiana's eyes lit up immediately, and the witch of the lake **** immediately agreed: "Well, wait a moment, wait for me to take a bath and change my clothes."

"Well, Olika, are you going?" Ryan asked casually.

"I won't go." The dark elf shook his head helplessly: "Master, I have to clean it up quickly, otherwise it will smell for a long time. You don't want the prayer room to be filled with an unpleasant smell in the future. Noisy, right?"

"Alright then." Ryan was a little embarrassed, and the witch of the lake **** even had Xiafei's cheeks, buried her face in Ryan's chest, not daring to look directly at Olika's playful gaze.

…………I am the dividing line that is difficult to clean…………

At the same time, the city of Jean, the old guard barracks.

Just today, the old guards who have fought for the rest of their lives can finally enjoy their vacation. This army of 1,500 people was reduced to less than 1,000 after the battle at Valaya's Gate. The serf infantry who had made military exploits and were promoted to the legendary rank increased to more than 1,100 people, and in the subsequent battles, the old guards faced certain losses, and now there are 1,000 left after returning to Brittany. Twenty-three people, of which 213 had to be forced to retire due to different degrees of disability, and the remaining 810 continued to serve His Majesty Ryan in the Old Guard.

Of course, in the future, the old guards will definitely be replenished to the original scale of 1,500 people, but this has nothing to do with some of them. Those old guards who are forced to retire who are willing to continue to work will be punished. Incorporated into public positions such as security forces, militia captains, etc., you can also work and arrange accommodation in the city as free people if you don’t want to. Every old guard who is forced to retire can get a full 100 gold crowns. Plus some expedition remnants of supplies, plus a series of personal seizures in the big expedition, it is enough to ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

When many old guards were forced to retire, they burst into tears and could not help themselves. They used to be proud of wearing this uniform. Now, they are going to retire. They must continue to contribute to the lady and the king in another place. At the same time, Enjoy their esteemed status and supreme glory.

Most of these soldiers who came out of serfs never imagined that they would have such a day.

There is no doubt that glory is with them. When they look back on the past, they will not regret their mediocrity and wasting their time, nor will they feel guilty for being despicable and vulgar. When Hua was old, they could proudly say that they Has dedicated his life to the most precious cause of mankind - fighting for the survival and supreme glory of mankind.

"Retirement is not the end! It's a new beginning!" Ryan stood in the middle of the barracks, his figure was bathed in the winter sun, like a **** of war coming to the world. Just like a big tree, the strong roots are deeply rooted into the soil, and even if the top of the tree is cut off, it will never wither!"

The king of knights and the witch of the lake **** were greeted by a deafening cry with a weeping voice.

The remaining old guards were also personally commended by Ryan and Morgiana. Every old guard who will continue to serve in the future can be rewarded with fifty gold crowns, including the Great Expedition. In a series of seizures, each of the old guards earned at least a fortune worth more than one hundred gold crowns, which was an extremely rich income for them.

Ryan generously approved a month's vacation for all the old guards, taking turns on vacation, and the king left in a hurry, he had other things to do.

The old guards came forward one after another to receive their rewards and their own vacations.

The old guard commander Bertrand now looks like a true general who has been trained in blood and fire. He has amazing momentum, and he is not angry. Bertrand personally handed the packages full of dwarf gold coins to the old man. Guards.

"Old Guards Long Halberd Battalion Commander, Raymond!" Bertrand read out the next name.

Wearing the battalion commander's uniform with several new scars on his face and body, Raymond, who had begun to grow a beard, strode to Bertrand, took the package, and felt the weight of it: "Thank you. ."

"You haven't been home for a long time, haven't you?" Bertrand nodded slowly: "Take the good things, go home, a month off, go back to the barracks to report on this day next month, and, That...please also."

"Yes!" Raymond saluted, his chest has been tied with the latest medals - the Eight Peaks Mountain Expedition Commemorative Medal, and a golden iris medal, which commemorates his confrontation with the Greenskin in the Iron Rock Raid. The warlords are not afraid, but also hit the other side.

The battalion commander quickly left the old guard barracks.

The streets outside today are full of soldiers. Today is the day when the soldiers go home. There are many old people, children, and women on the street. They line up on both sides of the street and wait for the return of their relatives. Joyful cheers and calls The cries of the name were endless, but Raymond couldn't feel any joy.

Because more people were waiting, armies were disbanded, and groups of soldiers who had fought for the rest of their lives returned to their hometowns, but many people just stood on the side of the road. They waited, waited, waited, but always Did not wait for their relatives.

Hope, disappointment, hope again, until...

Raymond couldn't bear to watch it any longer, he quickly left ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and walked towards his home along the familiar street.

In the distance, a clean and tidy street and a building called home appeared in front of him. At this time, the old guard battalion commander, who had no fear in the blood and fire, became a little unconfident. He took a few deep breaths and sorted it out. After checking his brand-new military uniform, he strode towards his home.

Not surprisingly, the door was closed. Since Thomas went to study in Nur, the old mother had the habit of closing the door.

So Raymond stood in front of the house, and he shouted towards the second floor.

"Mother!!!"

The old mother immediately stuck her head out of the window. She heard that her son was calling him. The old mother couldn't help but covered her nose with a handkerchief and sobbed: "Raymond!"

However, it wasn't just Raymond's old mother who poked her head out of the window.

After that "mom", at least four mothers poked their heads out of the windows in succession along the street, trying to see if their sons had returned.

Only one son was standing downstairs.

Seeing it was Raymond, the expectations and smiles on their faces gradually disappeared, and they slowly retracted their heads into the window in disappointment.

The door opened, and the old mother rushed out of the house with incomparable speed, hugged her son, and kissed his face non-stop: "Raymond! You're back! Ah, Salia is on top! You Really back!"

"Yes, Mom, I'm back." Tears fell from Raymond's eyes, and the old guard battalion commander soon sobbed in a low voice: "I'm back! Woo~ I'm back! Mom, how are you? ?"

"Good! Good! Just come back, just come back!"

Raymond's package contained seven death notices.

On this street, eight young men set foot on the ship of the Bafeng Mountain Great Expedition.

Eight mothers, but only one son.
