Power and Empire Chapter 428: Wang Ting Night Banquet (2)
428 King Court Night Banquet (2)
Cheering crowds are all over the city, there are people everywhere,
Tribal girls in festive costumes are flying around the streets of the city like flowers and butterflies,
I don’t know if it’s because of the tense atmosphere before the war, or if this is an extremely rare gathering,
There are more and more young people chasing, and you can constantly see boys and girls hugging each other,
Fatty even saw many 13- or 4-year-old girls participating in such stimulating activities.
Looking at the pretty and immature silhouettes, the boy who was chased was finally held in his arms, the fat man couldn't help but feel a little surprised,
Of course, the fat guy doesn’t know. In Kujit, these little girls are no longer kids.
According to tribal regulations, 12 years old is a girl who has reached the age of marriageable age. She must start to learn and learn how to be a man’s wife.
Their first teacher is often their mother. For their daughter who is about to become an adult, the mother’s responsibility is extremely important
Because, in the eyes of the Kujites,
The most precious property is not the horses, cattle and sheep they own, but how many wives and children they have,
Because these are the hopes of the entire tribe, they are the most basic things of a tribe,
If a man dies, their wives and children must join another man’s group,
Similarly, in order to protect the most precious assets of these tribes,
The man who accepts mother and child must swear to Changshengtian with his tribe’s reputation and his own life,
No matter whose children and wives are, whether they were brothers or friends, they must be treated equally,
This is a power that seems to have obligations greater than benefits, but it is the continued hope of the tribe.
Everyone in the tribe, from the most noble patriarch to just toddlers, will testify on this matter.
Anyone who renounces his oath will not only be spurned by the entire ethnic group, but all his property, wives and children will be deprived of the tribe,
So Kujit men never worry about it while fighting to the death for his wife and son,
After I died, my wife and children were left alone and without support,
This seemingly cruel rule, but it guarantees the most basic reproductive ability of the tribe, and has become the default rule of all Kujites
This is the law of wolves and the wisdom of Professor Changshengtian
Applicable to all people, even if he is a noble King Khan or a wandering ordinary tribe
Kugits can continue to grow in this melee environment. This seemingly unreasonable rule plays the most important significance.
The sky gradually dimmed in the continuous joy, and countless red bonfires lit up the entire sky,
"Woo" a war horse ran by the erect target with howling,
The swift scimitar in the knight’s hand slid with arc light at high speed. The watermelon that "Pump" was the target was cut in half with a knife, and the red flesh of the melon sputtered out.
"Good job", the fat man nodded secretly as he looked at the young rider who split four watermelons in a row,
This is a performance by a Prairie Laren level 2 warrior,
The superb equestrian skills that flexibly shuttled between the targets and the flashing scimitars aroused more violent cheers and praises around,
The machete, this Kujit’s favorite weapon, turned into the most deadly weapon in the hands of this Prairie Laren warrior.
Bow shooting, flashing, scimitar slashing, and horse rushing, these things that constantly flash in the game are the essence of the Kujit cavalry tactics
For the whole afternoon, Fatty kept watching all kinds of games like this. While the courage of the Kujites made Fatty feel a little admired, he also had a deeper understanding of Kujit’s cavalry tactics
Assault like a pack of wolves, coupled with their skilled equestrian skills and sharp machete, the Courget cavalry can hunt like a scattered fishing net, and can also penetrate the enemy's defense line like a spear of an assault.
The sun light dissipated, and the red circle finally hid the last half of her smiling face, and the sky was completely black.
Fatty finally chose to sit down in a remote place on the tower,
Looking at the Kujites who are having fun under the dark red sky, and those Kujits who are happily dancing around the clusters of red bonfires,
The fat man felt an incomprehensible emotion spreading. At this moment, these smiling Kujites were once his worst enemy,
Samoor Fortress, the Kujites rushed up the city wall holding the corpse of their companions
On the outskirts of Omr, 20,000 left-guard cavalry launched a decisive attack on their army, until the last General Kujit fell in the mountain of **** corpses
Now, these simple herdsmen have already fought with them. The sturdy and cruel Khergit cavalry figures overlapped together, making those Khergit soldiers who fought to the death more plump,
I saw the brave and meaningless side of the Kujites, and the simple and warm side of the Kujites. Which one is the real Kujit?
Or both
Night wind floated into Fatty’s ears with a melodious and cheerful herdsman song. Fatty recovered from the daze, raised his head and looked at the stars above him, feeling so lonely,
I am just a passer-by. This happiness is so close and yet far away. This is the happiness of the Kujites, and I am leaving tonight,
When the morning light of tomorrow pierces the sky, among the cheerful crowds here, I don’t know how many people will put on battle armors and take machetes to the front line.
They will fight for their own tribe, their own Khan King,
This decisive battle that affects the entire northern war will also be completely ignited.
"Let’s go, we should set off the fat man with an inexplicable sentimental corner of his mouth, and patted the dust on his body with our hands.
Under the **** of several Khergit cavalrymen, walked into the carriage that Seris had already been waiting for downstairs,
The black curtain was lowered, completely isolating the cheerful world outside.
The carriage shuttled through the crowd. Half an hour later, the carriage passed through the entrance on the second floor, and the pretty figure of Ceres appeared in front.
The fat man came out of the wagon. At this moment, he has changed the Kujit clothes prepared in the wagon. If I don't look carefully, I really think he is a chubby Kujit youth.
"The third floor is the scope of the royal guards. You are by my side. As long as you don't look up, no one can see it in the night." Ceris whispered in the fat man’s ear,
A dozen serious-looking Kujit cavalry guarded the two in the middle,
"These are my personal guards, there is no problem in loyalty" Ceris looked at the fat man with slightly furrowed eyebrows, and quickly explained in a low voice
"These personal guards are somewhat similar to you in body, and they are your best cover. As long as you pass the guards at the three-story gate, you can quietly leave the brigade and do your thing,
Even if the royal guards find something abnormal, they will never be able to find you among a large number of distinguished guards"
"Well, just do what you said." The fat man nodded affirmatively. Cerise was right. The king's court is a heavy land. The pass must be strictly investigated.
My appearance is indeed very different from that of Kujites,
Through the vast night, hiding yourself in the dozens of Khergit cavalry can indeed save a lot of trouble,
The horse team goes up the circling mountain road,
The torches on both sides of the "crack" road, sparks are splashing in the wind of the fierce mountain,
There are more and more Kujit nobles on the road, and most of them are accompanied by beautiful girls in fancy dresses, but compared with the beauty and elegance of Cerise, it seems a little inferior.
Sceris, who took the lead, is like a beautiful goddess in the dark, frequently attracting the nobles on the road.
Seeing that it was the horse team of Princess Cerise of the Royal Court, one after another gave way,
Scyris is also welcome, drove the horse through the middle of the road. As a royal princess, Scyris naturally does not put the nobles of these tribes in his eyes,
As the mountain road gets higher and higher, a huge door appears not far away. A dozen guards of the Kujit court wearing exquisite locks are inspecting one by one.
"I'm sorry, princess", a captain of the Kujit court guard stopped Scyris's horse with a respectful look, "Tonight the court has a strict order, because of the war ahead, in order to prevent the Swadians from sneaking into the Assassin King, All the horse teams are going to check tonight. It’s your Royal Highness. Please also cooperate in the checkup."
"Why do you want to check even my horse team?" Sisai Lisi waved her whip with an angry expression, scared Captain Wang Tingwei's face pale.
Sceris is not an ordinary princess of the royal court, she has both the royal court secretary and the military position,
This is the only one in the entire court of Kujit, and even a few princes do not have such a favor. It can be seen that King Khan still values this unruly princess above the prince
Scyris looked at the guards around, although their faces were earthy, but they didn't mean to let them go. She knew that this time she was afraid that it would be difficult to get past, so she could only put on a bulging appearance.
""Since it is King Khan’s Wang Ling, you can check that these people are my personal guards. They all have military badges. If you don’t believe them, you can press your waist to find the military court badges.
This time, I will report the truth to King Khan. I’m going to ask King Khan, is it possible that my status as a princess has also been cancelled. The long face was slightly flustered, and there was speculation in my heart.
This search was not an order from the royal court at all, but someone deliberately handed it over. The princess cerise’s horse team must be investigated carefully. It seems that I hope to find out something from it.
This big man can't afford to offend himself, but Princess Sceris is not a captain of the guard herself, she can offend him, when he is hesitant to make a decision,
Suddenly there was a noise from the crowd coming to the party in front of the right,
I saw a red-clothed girl in full costume riding a cyan war horse and rushing out of the crowd with a dozen guards.
The mountain road is narrow, only enough for five horses to walk side by side at a time, and the whole mountain road is messed up by such a mess.
The sound of war horses neighing and human voices cursing made the Wang Ting Guards who were obstructing the investigation in front also messed up their hands and feet.
"Get out of the way, this is the horse team of Princess Alenas of the East Court." An East Court Cavalry in chain armor smashed the horse team in front of him, waving his whip arrogantly and blocking the road in front of the king court. The guard shouted, "Princess Alenas's horse team" saw the girl in red. Captain Wang Tingwei, who had been checking on just now, turned white and quickly put on a flattering face.
Shouted to the surrounding guards of the royal court, "Quickly, move the fence away, but the guests of the royal court have collided." The guards hurriedly moved away the fence blocking the way in a panic,
"Hurry up, let's go." Princess Alenas has no scruples about her behavior to disperse other squadrons. Instead of apologizing, she waved to the guard behind her.
Move the war horse to rush directly through the fence that was just half open
The sudden reprimand of "Asshole" caught everyone's attention,
I saw Captain Wang Tingwei, who was still full of flattery just now, covered his face with his hands, and took a few steps back in a row.
Sceris was waving a **** whip in her hand, and said angrily, "You have blinded your dog’s eyes, my horse team, you have to check, why did you let the horse team of Dongting people let it go? Is it in your eyes, I Princess Wang Ting is not as good as Princess Dong Ting. I have to ask about this. If I can’t answer, I’ll just personally touch your head."
"No, it's definitely not like this." Captain Wang Tingwei covered his bleeding face,
Sceris's angry whip hit him, and he screamed in pain, and hurriedly said to the panicked subordinates behind him, "What are you doing, let go?"
The fat man hurriedly rode his horse to follow Cerise’s horse team and passed the Wang Court checkpoint without hindrance.
The winding mountain road quickly flattened, and bright bonfires were lit all around, illuminating the top of the holy mountain Hailar.
The fat man found an opportunity in the middle of the way, broke away from Cerise’s horse team, walked along the black wall shadow of the palace, according to the map provided by Cerise, passed through a wide flat with three-pole stairs,
On Guangping, a thick black stone pillar went straight up into the sky, and countless noble girls in gorgeous costumes kneeled in the center of Guangping to pray for the royal court.
The war is coming, these girls are also worried for their lover, father, brother,
The constant sound of Yingyingyanyanyan in the dark night seems particularly clear and sweet, and it seems to be able to be conveyed to the top of the sky through that huge stone pillar,
The fat man is dressed in the costume of the Kujit guard, and these noble girls only regard the fat man as an ordinary guardian of the royal court.
No one noticed this royal guard. Quickly disappearing into the darkness in the distance, a huge palace is faintly visible there.
The fat man bypassed two guard posts and sneaked into a dense forest on the right,
Because there are no other people around, the fat man completely let go of his hands and feet, and his body turns into a phantom that is difficult to determine, like a sensitive obese civet cat quickly shuttles through the woods,
If anyone sees it now, they will be frightened and scream, thinking that they will encounter some mountain spirit tree monster,
Pick aside the obscured bushes, the fat man stared at the abandoned palace in the distance with keen eyes,
There is indeed a problem here~IndoMTL.com~ When the fat man first saw the gate of the abandoned palace, he noticed it,
Today is the Seventh Day, and the defense on the road is obviously more sparse than the fat man expected. Only here, even the guards with patrols at the gate of the palace, the fat man secretly counted,
Three patrols, 200 fixed guards, there are more than 400 guards that can only be seen,
Densely surrounded this mysterious abandoned palace,
It is conceivable that among those invisible shadows, there will be more invisible eyes, watching all those who may enter the palace vigilantly,
This is only the gate of the palace. If you count the various sentries and patrols in the other three directions, I am afraid that the number of people is not less than 3,000.
Such a tight defense, if there is nothing tricky in it, then it is a problem.
Looking at such a tightly guarded abandoned palace, the fat man also felt a headache,
