The cute pet of the empire

Mao Xiaohua was taken aback, blinked her eyes, then lay down on the ground, the handsome young man turned into a fluffy leopard, rolled on the ground, revealing her white belly.

Luo Huan smiled. He knelt down and rubbed Mao Xiaohua's ears: "You must sleep with me!"

Mao Xiaohua stuck out her tongue and licked Luo Huan's stubble.

Luo Huan was unmoved: "There is no discussion."

The leopard made a purring sound, and Luo Huan became more determined: "Even if you never come back, you still have to sleep with me!"

The leopard let out a snort from its nostrils, stood up, flicked its thick and powerful tail, tipped its tail up, put on a proud posture, and tiptoed out of the room.

Mao Xiaohua thought as she walked: Luo Huan was able to resist after using all the tricks of rolling and showing cuteness. It seems that the concentration of this male favorite of hers is getting stronger and stronger! !I really don't know whether to be happy or worried.

Three days later, Mao Xiaohua finally met her partner.

It was a young man who had just turned [-] this year, with dark skin, bright eyes, white teeth, and neat short hair.

Mao Xiaohua recognized him, and it could even be said that it was hard to forget this person.

This is a soldier from Royce who followed Luo Huan to fight at the age of sixteen.

When he was in El, the soldier liked Mao Xiaohua very much, and once wanted to give it a bath.

But also, at El's sports meeting, it was this soldier who questioned Mao Xiaohua's qualifications as a beast, and expressed dissatisfaction and anger at the leopard.

His name has already introduced himself in the first El River - Cheng Xiaoqi.

Cheng Xiaoqi's partner was killed in the Battle of El, and since then he has refused any partner, so he changed from a shield hand to a spearman, and was in charge of spear stabbing in the infantry phalanx.

At this time, Cheng Xiaoqi was holding a spear, standing beside the leopard assigned to him like other selected soldiers.

And Mamonro, as the instructor this time, is teaching these soldiers.

"As a southern leopard known as a beast, it will only have one master in this life. Therefore, don't try to be their master. Because anyone who takes up arms must have the consciousness to die at any time. And these southern leopards Life is more precious than yours, even if you die, they will still be alive and have another partner again. Although it is cruel, this is the fact."

Mamello's gray messenger bird was standing on his shoulder at the moment, its piercing eyes scanning the mixed human and leopard army, and cooing from time to time.

Mao Xiaohua turned her head to look at her partner Cheng Xiaoqi, and then at Mamonro.

He knew that what Mamonro said was right, the cost of training southern leopards was several times higher than training people. In a sense, southern leopards were a more expensive resource than these cheap infantry.

"What you have to do is to let these leopards learn to hide and hide under the cover of the phalanx on the battlefield, so that these leopards will regard you as mountains, rocks, or other things... Next, let's start the first item Training, basic communication with leopards."

It is very simple to hide the leopard in the infantry phalanx to attack. When the enemy chariot rolls over, the leopard stands up by the people around it, and advances and retreats with the soldiers around it, avoiding those carriages.

And in the more offensive time, the leopards rushed out from behind the shields of those soldiers, chasing and killing the enemy.

This idea is simple to say, but it is very difficult to implement it.

First of all, when a leopard sees danger, its first thought is not to lie on the back of a person to dodge, and it is even more impossible to stand upright when necessary and follow the human formation.

The second is those soldiers. No matter how friendly the southern leopard is, it is a big cat after all. Their sharp claws and white teeth will give those soldiers a huge psychological pressure, especially when those leopards When the head was leaning against the soldier's neck, many soldiers had the illusion that their neck would be bitten off in the next second.

Of course, the most difficult thing is that even if the leopards and the soldiers are fearless and trust each other, the leopards will still accidentally scratch the soldiers when they are in action.

Snow was flying in mid-air, dyeing the surroundings of the training ground white, and Mamonro's voice, without the slightest emotion, gave orders one after another: "Stand up!"

Mao Xiaohua felt that her paws were about to freeze into ice cubes in this kind of mud, but when she heard this order, she suddenly raised her forelimbs, stood up from the ground relying on the strength of her hind legs, and rested her front paws on Cheng Xiaohua beside her. Odd shoulder.

"Separate left and right!"

Cheng Xiaoqi, holding a spear, listened to the order and moved to the left quickly and in small steps, while Mao Xiaohua had to cooperate with his steps and move along with him.

"Shieldman!"

Soldiers with shields quickly pierced forward from the back of the phalanx, and the huge shields were erected one after another, but this action and loud noise alarmed the already tired and restless leopards.

The leopard began to stir, and the soldiers who cooperated with the leopard also began to feel the danger brought by the cat's disturbance.

"Stop! Stop!"

Mamonro could only suspend this training again, the messenger bird on his shoulder flew around in the air, easily found those leopards whose movements were not in place, and mercilessly sent them back with a "croak" sound. Those leopards and their partners were picked out.

"You! You! And you..." According to the information provided by his messenger bird, Mamonro pointed out the leopards and their partners who were not moving properly in the phalanx, "Stay here and continue training, and others will help you The leopards go to bathe and groom, and communicate with each other's sense of trust."

Mao Xiaohua is a leopard whose movements are not in place. He feels that his legs are a little stiff and wants to take a rest.

But when he saw his partner Cheng Xiaoqi's expression, he gave up the idea of ​​resting.

Snow fell on Cheng Xiaoqi's gloves, and a thin layer of ice formed on his eyelashes. His face was flushed from the cold, but his expression was very stubborn.

Not only that, this young man didn't complain about being left behind to continue training, but just kept repeating those mechanical movements.

An ordinary soldier under Luo Huan can do this, so why should I, as Luo Huan's closest person, want to shrink back because I am tired?

"Stand up!"

"Separate left and right!"

"Shieldman!"

Another training session began, Mao Xiaohua stood up again, moved her body, and the shield hand quickly stepped forward to form a solid passage.

The carriage rumbled past on the road separated by the shield bearers, and the soldiers with long spears took the opportunity to stab. The two or three meter long spears pierced into the body of the carriage and strangled him.

The training lasted until evening, when Mao Xiaohua dragged her tired feet and legs to Luo Huan's room.

"If you don't come back, I'm going to find you!" When Luo Huan saw Mao Xiaohua, he quickly stepped forward and hugged the tired half-dead leopard.

Leopard took a breath, and his body gradually transformed into a human.

The hair of the black-haired young man was icy, his nose was red from the cold, his hands and feet were cold, and he looked tired.

Luo Huan hurriedly hugged Mao Xiaohua to his bed, and kept rubbing his hands and feet. When he saw that his hands were red and swollen from the cold, he felt tense in his heart: "You are different from those leopards... you There is no need to work so hard, damn Marmonro, how did you torture me!"

Mao Xiaohua felt extremely tired, but she still smiled, stretched out her hand, hooked Luo Huan's neck, and planted a cold kiss on his lips.

Luo Huan held Mao Xiaohua tightly in his arms, and there was a trace of reproach in his voice: "I really don't know what you think, why do you keep it until the end every time? You don't need to do this..."

Mao Xiaohua smiled softly. He looked at Luo Huan's face. Such a face had been reflected in his heart many years ago and never changed.

"This is what I agreed with Mamonro. No one knows whether the Southern Leopards can bear this kind of training. I stay at the end every time, and it is precisely to personally test whether this kind of training can be real. It worked, that's what I agreed with Mamonroe. He was in charge of training, and I was in charge of experiencing this training, perfecting and modifying his training plan."

When saying this, Mao Xiaohua paused slightly, and he looked deeply at Luo Huan.

Luo Huan's face was pulled out by the candlelight like a sculpture, his eyes were extremely deep and quiet, and after that quiet, there was a trace of melancholy that no one could detect.

"I hope you win! Luo Huan, I hope...your dream can come true." Mao Xiaohua's voice was as light as a feather, "I just want to use my way to help you...defeat King Shah. "

"I am not just a cute pet, not just a leopard who can poop, and not just your bed partner. I am... your friend, your relative, I want to be someone who can stand side by side with you spouse."

Luo Huan's eyes were tightly closed, and he hugged the person in his arms tightly.

Many years ago, when the person in his arms was still a leopard, those blue eyes without any impurities made him feel safe and trustworthy.

But now, after the two had such an intimate relationship, Luo Huan, who had already had a hard heart, melted in an instant with the voice and words of the other party, and he hugged the person in his arms tightly. , the voice fell in the ear of the black-haired young man: "I will definitely...will win. I will share everything with you, no matter wealth, honor, power, or territory. We will stand side by side at the highest place in the world, Forever."
