Chapter 47: Jacob's Advice and the Iron Paladins
In the morning of October 8, 289, the imperial calendar of the Britannia Empire.
Su Cheng's home.
Su Cheng lay comfortably on a soft sofa as always, with his left arm supporting his head.
In his right hand he holds a small stack of papers.
Su Cheng was still looking at Alan's profile.
Thinking of what happened in the past few days, Su Cheng felt tired.
The day before yesterday, after teaching Ilsa a lesson, I returned home non-stop, and the three of them went to buy new clothes and get weapons with Carol.
The day before yesterday, when I finally thought I could take a good rest, I was suddenly notified to go to the Baiyang Palace to attend a meeting.
Yesterday, when I thought I could finally calm down, I was called by Enli to practice soldiers for a long time.
Shouldn't you need to go out today? !
Su Cheng's eyes moved away from Alan's information in his hand, and moved to Kai Luoer who was sitting on the sofa opposite him.
Today is Kai Luoer's rest day, so today is a very rare day when Su Cheng, Kai Luoer, Alan, and Deng Jiaer are all at home.
It was already past 10 o'clock in the morning. Deng Jiaer was not practicing fighting skills such as spears in the yard. He seemed to be reading a book in his room, while Alan was still sleeping in the room.
In other words, only Su Cheng and Kai Luoer were in Nuo Da's living room.
Carol's mood today... No, it seems that she has been in a good mood since she came home last night, and she was still humming a song while cooking in the kitchen last night.
"Carol," Su Cheng said, "You seem to be in a good mood today, did something good happen?"
"Hmm..." Carol smiled slightly, thought for a while, and nodded, "Well, I met a new friend yesterday evening, so I'm a little happy."
"friend?"
Su Cheng frowned vigilantly, then blurted out without thinking:
"Whether it's a man or a woman..."
Before the words finished, Su Cheng suddenly raised his hand and covered his mouth.
I thought to myself: Why am I so nervous? Why do you care so much about whether your new friend is a man or a woman?
"Huh?" Kailor raised his eyebrows, "Why do you care so much about whether my new friend is a man or a woman?"
"No, I don't care." Su Cheng raised the paper in his hand so that it could cover his face, "Just a random question."
Kailor exhaled helplessly, and then said:
"It's a girl who is 3 years older than me, not a boy."
After hearing what Kai Luoer said, Su Cheng suddenly felt that a big stone in his heart had fallen to the ground...
"Besides, you should know this girl too..."
Boom boom boom! !
Before Kairoll finished speaking, he was interrupted by loud knocks on the door.
"Ah ah ah!!"
Su Cheng threw away all the paper in his hand, then covered his ears with both hands, with a pained expression on his face, and screamed.
"There it is! Knocking on the door! Don't let me hear it!! Let me stay at home and rest!!"
"Cheng, calm down, calm down." Seeing that Su Cheng's mental state was abnormal, Kai Luoer hurriedly comforted him.
Su Cheng covered his ears, curled up his body, and said, "Sorry, Carol, I don't want to open the door, can you open the door for me?"
"Ah, good, good."
After that, Carol quickly walked towards the gate.
Soon, Su Cheng heard the sound of opening the door.
"Hello, who are you looking for?" Kailor's pleasant voice came over.
"Oh? This should be Su Cheng's home, right? I don't think you look like Cheng's sister, are you Su Cheng's lover or wife?"
It was the voice of an extremely familiar middle-aged man!
After hearing this extremely familiar middle-aged man's voice,
Su Cheng's eyes widened suddenly, then quickly rolled off the sofa, and then rushed towards the gate quickly.
"I'm not Cheng's couple or wife yet, I'm still just friends."
When Su Cheng came to the gate, he just heard Kai Luoer say this to the people outside the gate.
When Su Cheng came to the door, he fixed his eyes on the person standing outside his door.
"Mr. Jacob?" Su Cheng asked.
The person standing outside the door was Jacob.
After seeing Su Cheng, Jacob smiled. Jacob had many wrinkles on his face. When he smiled, the wrinkles on his face were crowded together, more like a wrinkled rotten orange peel.
"Good morning, Mr. Cheng."
Su Cheng quickly saluted and said, "Good morning, Mr. Jacob."
Although Kailor didn't know Jacob, he stepped back 2 steps very politely, and then saluted Jacob.
Su Cheng brought Jacob into the hall, while Kailor quietly went back upstairs, probably to the room.
Although Kailor doesn't know Jacob, it can still be seen from Jacob's clothes and behavior that Jacob must not be an ordinary person. Su Cheng is already a knight now, and he is going to be a knight in ten days. Participating in an important expedition, this middle-aged man suddenly came to Su Cheng, maybe he wanted to talk about something important, if she wanted to talk about something important, it would be bad if she stayed there , so Carol quietly went back to the room.
"Mr. Cheng, your home is not bad."
Jacob sat on the sofa where Su Cheng had just been lying on, raised his head and looked around.
"Not only does the family live in a mansion, but there is also a beautiful girl with blue hair." Jacob said teasingly, "Mr. Cheng, you are really enviable. When I was your age, I didn't live in a mansion, nor did I have anything at home. Accompanied by beautiful girls."
"The blue-haired girl just now is just my friend," Su Cheng said helplessly, "Because we have a good relationship and it's convenient to take care of each other when we live together, so we just live together."
"Oh? Is that so?" Jacob cast his sharp eyes on Su Cheng, but there was a little smile in his sharp eyes.
"Forget it, it's better not to gossip anymore. I'm here today to tell you something."
"Oh, Mr. Jacob, please."
"You were really good yesterday." Jacob said indifferently, "You directly killed two 'Young Master Soldiers'."
"Ah, this one."
Su Cheng smiled wryly and scratched his head.
"I don't want to kill them both, but if I don't punish them severely, the sacred and inviolable military laws and orders will be trampled on. This is a very serious matter that cannot be underestimated."
"Looking at your refined appearance, I never imagined that you would kill someone so simply and neatly."
"At first, I was afraid that after I killed the two of them, I would feel some discomfort in my body. After all, this is the first time I have killed people." Su Cheng shrugged, "But unexpectedly, my body did not appear. Any discomfort may be because I watched too many bloody scenes during the counter-insurgency, so I didn’t feel uncomfortable after the killing. Ah, although I saw the bloody scene for the first time when I was in the counter-insurgency. There is no discomfort in the body."
"Anything is fine." Jacob rubbed his temples, "Fortunately, the two you killed were collateral descendants of two minor nobles, so they are relatively easy to deal with. I don't want to see you being retaliated by them in the future. So I've helped you resolve this little incident."
Hearing Jacob's words, a look of joy appeared on Su Cheng's face, and then hurriedly saluted Jacob, and said:
"Mr. Jacob, thank you."
Su Cheng had expected that Jacob would definitely help him with this matter.
Yesterday, Su Cheng had expected that Jacob would definitely help him settle this matter, so he dared to kill the two "young master soldiers" without fear.
"only--"
Jacob suddenly glanced coldly at Su Cheng with his sharp eyes.
"There will be no next time, don't provoke the 'Young Master Bing' again, I treat you as mine now, so I will help you solve it this time, but I can't bear the people below to provoke me again and again, I Although I like you very much, and I really want to train you to become a great pillar of our Britannia Empire in the future, but if you cause me trouble again, don't blame me for turning my face and denying people."
Su Cheng quickly nodded his head a few times.
"Okay, I won't do it again next time! Please rest assured, Mr. Jacob!"
Jacob leaned back, leaning against the soft sofa back.
"I came to you this time mainly to tell you a piece of new information."
"New information?" Su Cheng raised his eyebrows.
"Ok."
Jacob nodded.
"The latest information received is about your opponent in the expedition ten days later - Alan Jones. In two days, this information should reach the ears of the knights participating in this expedition, but I think After thinking about it, I decided to come over and tell you in advance.”
"Mr. Jacob," Su Cheng said solemnly, "What kind of information is it?"
"You should also know that the Frankish Empire sent 'Steel Bone' Alan Jones to help the Carolingian Kingdom. Under his command, the main force of the Lund Kingdom was wiped out."
Su Cheng nodded.
"However, now that there is the latest information," Jacob's face also showed a serious expression, "The Frankish Empire not only sent Alan to help the Carolingian Kingdom, but also sent 4,000 armored paladins to help the Carolingian Kingdom." Kingdom of Lorraine."
"Iron Armored Paladin?"
Su Cheng took a deep breath, then said:
"It's no wonder that the main force of the Kingdom of Lund was wiped out. With the help of the Iron Armored Paladins and under the command of Allen, it's not surprising that the main force of the Kingdom of Lund was completely wiped out."
"Well, that's right." Jacob nodded, "So I came to your house on a special trip today, just to remind you: Be careful, be careful of Iron Paladins, be careful of Alan!"
Su Cheng nodded with a serious face.
"Well, I will. Thank you, Mr. Jacob, for your reminder."
As soon as Su Cheng's voice fell, Jacob stood up and said while standing up:
"You should also be able to guess that you, the deputy commander of the 10th Army, were won by me for you. In order to help you, the Xingui Knight, win the position of deputy commander, I have worn out my lips, so In addition to being careful, you should also seize the opportunity to get some military achievements back, and strive to be promoted to the Double Oak Knight within 1 to 2 years. Of course, if you can get a huge contribution in this expedition, For example, if you capture Allen, who has caused us a headache for the Britannia Empire for a long time, and wipe out the 80,000 army of the Carolingian Kingdom, you may be able to be directly promoted to the Double Oak Knight, although this is unlikely. Ha ha ha ha!"
I knew it was you who spoke for me that I was elected as the deputy commander of the 10th Army!
While complaining in his heart, Su Cheng said with a wry smile: "I'll try my best, but I'm just a small deputy commander in this expedition, and I'm no longer the commander-in-chief of the whole army like last time, so I may also take It’s no big deal.”
"Okay, I've finished what I should say. I'll go back first. I wish you a safe and successful return from this expedition."
As soon as Jacob finished speaking, he walked directly to the door of Su Cheng's house.
"Ah, Mr. Jacob, then I'll see you off."
Su Cheng brought Jacob to the door of the house, and when Jacob was about to step out of Su Cheng's house, he suddenly stopped.
"Ah, that's right. I almost forgot that there is one more thing to tell you."
"Mr. Jacob, please speak."
"'Gemini Stars'—Alyssa Hill and Enli Hunter, according to my information, the two of them don’t have a high opinion of you, especially Enli, who also participated in this event Expedition, so in this expedition, you also have to be careful with the two of them. Although I can see that the two of them are actually good in nature, it is always right to pay more attention, especially for Enri Henry Be careful, your military training yesterday may have been done on purpose by Enli. I guess Enli asked you to go out for training yesterday for the purpose of embarrassing you, so Su Cheng, you have to be more careful with Enli Hunter."
"This." Su Cheng scratched his hair and smiled helplessly, "Thank you for your advice, I will pay attention to it."
