The third day after the battle outside the New Great Wall.
Ark Harbor is still calm here, but calm but not quiet, but very noisy. In the daytime, there will be a huge movement in the ruins of the city, which is the voice of the residents rebuilding the city.
Part of the city has been cleaned up, and the rubble and waste soil have been transported away. The former Baibao has begun to be rebuilt. The low walls and gates surrounding the Baibao have been built up, and now people are paving the square. As for the original site of Baibao has now become a construction site, people are laying the foundation.
Orlando personally went into battle and carried the thick stone pillars onto the foundation and placed them at the positions designated by the engineer.
Rora looked at all this with a smile on her face.
Her belly can already bulge, so it is naturally inconvenient to help, so she can only do some work of boiling water on the construction site. She looked at the construction site on White Castle and the sweaty figure in Orlando. She felt very happy.
Orlando has worked hard to make himself a good husband since he got married, and he has done it now. His success made Ruola forget a lot of things, as well as that person. Now in Ruola's heart, he is the only one.
On the construction site, perhaps noticing Rola's gaze, Orlando turned his head and grinned, and waved his hand.
Rora also waved in greeting.
"Master Orlando treats the madam very well." A maid behind her smiled and said, "I thought that if I find a man, I can be half as good as an adult."
The other maid laughed and scolded: "Don't you want to be happy?"
Ruola shook her head and smiled: "Stop making trouble, let's go, we have to work too."
The women boiled water next to the construction site, and at noon, they cooked food for the men. Ruola also cooks himself, but there is no kitchen on the site and the tools are simple, so of course he can't cook any good dishes. She put slices of pre-marinated beef on a shelf, and when the meat was half cooked, she sprinkled it with salt and other things. When the meat is half-ripe, take it out and put it on a plate, and then continue to bake some other things.
When Orlando came back from the construction site, a plate was full of food. Orlando reached out his hand to tear off a small piece of beef and threw it in his mouth to chew, and said: "It tastes really good."
"Of course, the lady did it." A maid brought water and said.
Orlando took a sip and asked, "Is there any alcohol?"
"Yes, I don't let the lady drink it." The maid whispered.
"I heard." Ruola rolled her eyes and laughed: "It's OK, give him a drink, otherwise I will be annoyed by trouble."
Orlando shrugged and said, "Don't think of me as an old man, dear."
When the maid went to fetch the wine, Orlando had already started sweeping the food on the plate. These food and building materials were sent by Edward's orders, and a horse team would send all kinds of things almost every day. And Edward also sent an army of about two thousand people. Not much, but enough.
Looking at Orlando eating, Ruola said, "I don't know what's going on with the iron gun collar."
"Not good, very bad." Orlando put down the plate and said with a heavy voice: "Edward regularly sends news from all parts of the empire. Not long ago, there was a big battle on Iron Gun Ridge and the New Great Wall in the North. "
"Are these monsters?" Ruola's eyes widened.
Orlando nodded and said: "Edward called them the Burning Legion. The Burning Legion attacked many cities and territories of the Empire, but the two battles between the Iron Spear Collar and the New Great Wall were the most severe. The Iron Spear Collar, the Eastern Empire’s The army was almost crippled. Now the remnant army retreats into our gun city and defends the city with my father. As for the fighting on the New Great Wall, the battle on the other side of the Great Wall is even more fierce. The dragon general Woodrick has been killed in the battle. On the battlefield, the Imperial Army suffered even more losses. Fortunately, another Panlong Empire’s army did not hold back, and temporarily forced back the burning army. Now the old Wushuai Rodek regained the command of the army and moved many troops from each other. Transfer back to the Imperial Capital."
"So serious?" Ruola said uneasy: "Then we should consider going back to Dawning Castle, in case..."
Orlando knew what she was going to say, shook her head and shook her head. "It's the same everywhere. It was only King Pingxi's army that forced Edward to run out of trump cards. Now this burning army is coming more fiercely, if it is true. Come here, even in Dawning Castle."
"Why is this." Ruola lowered his head and said, "I thought that His Majesty Julian was on the throne, and we could finally cross the sun safely. But first the Panlong Empire's army came across the ocean, and then this again. I don’t know where the burning army came from. What happened to this world?"
Orlando couldn’t answer this question either. He patted Ruola’s hand and said, “In fact, the Burning Legion had solved our siege. At that time, you didn’t know it in the Castle of Dawn. In that war, the burning army once participated in the war and repelled the blood-clad army of King Jiwu. Even King Jiwu died in the hands of the opponent’s leader."
Ruola looked up: "Then why is this army now attacking cities everywhere?"
"I don't know, maybe there are two such armies?" Orlando said casually.
"The wine is here, the wine is here." The returning maid said triumphantly, holding a bottle of wine in her hand and said: "I found it after looking for a long time, Master Orlando, how can you thank you? Me?"
"A kiss?" Orlando said deliberately.
Rora rolled her eyes: "You want to be beautiful!"
There was a burst of laughter.
Such laughter will be heard from time to time in many places, although the reconstruction work is not easy, but people can find this kind of happiness in their work. Because this is their home.
On the edge of the city’s ruins, the army sent by Edward built a weak line of defense here. A number of outposts were arranged on the defensive line. Each outpost was guarded by a team of about seven to ten people. Send messages at a fixed time.
One of the sentinel points is a two-storey small building. The building should have been taller. However, during the war, the two-storey part of it had been broken and collapsed, leaving only a few broken walls and half of it. Stairs to the upper floor.
The soldiers used this small building as a temporary outpost. Most soldiers patrolled nearby. One stayed downstairs and the other was on the second floor. The second floor acts as a watchtower. When there are no tall buildings nearby, the wilderness on the other side is open to sight. Standing on the second floor, you can completely see a row of forest lines on the other side of the wilderness. If anything appears in the wilderness, the soldiers on the second floor may see clearly.
It was in the afternoon when the soldiers who had eaten took a nap in the shadow with their muskets. Suddenly heard a faint beast roar, he made a violent jump and jumped up. Then he laughed ridiculously, and since Edward used the exclusion scheme, a large area of the forest has been cleared. The animals and beasts in the forest have been driven away long ago, and where did the beast roar.
I thought I was asleep. The soldier was about to retract. He didn't want to look in the direction of the wilderness, but he couldn't look away anymore!
