Chapter 523: The Michael Knights Are so Scary! (Five)
"What the hell is going on..." Ge Zewen murmured blankly.
Ge Zewen originally wanted to open the car door and get out of the car to see what was going on, but Jacob took the lead, opened the car door before Ge Zewen, and walked out of the car.
While walking out of the car, Jacob said to Gozevin: "Your Majesty, you stay in the car and don't come out. They seem to be sentry soldiers of the Michael Knights. I will negotiate with them." "
"Well, okay." Ge Zewen also regained his composure at this time and handed over the responsibility of negotiating with the people outside the car to Jacob.
After Jacob got out of the carriage, he saw soldiers forming a circle around their carriage.
This formed a circle of soldiers, including infantry and archers.
The infantrymen holding long spears were in front, pointing their sharp spear heads directly at them.
The crossbowmen holding crossbows stood behind the infantry, stringing the bows, and pointed the gleaming arrows at them.
The five Guards soldiers who were responsible for protecting Jacob and Gozevin immediately drew out their swords as a reflex after the group of soldiers came out from all directions to surround them, and glared at the group that surrounded them. The soldiers looked like they were facing a powerful enemy.
Jacob did not directly negotiate with the group of soldiers who surrounded them, but first said to the five guardsmen: "Put away your swords."
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, why?" one of the Guards soldiers asked in confusion.
"Didn't you see the armor on their bodies? These are soldiers of our Britannia army, our own. Put your swords away quickly. It's easy for them to think that we are the enemy."
"yes."
After receiving Jacob's order and reminder, the five guardsmen put the tips of their long swords back into the sheaths, and then sheathed the swords.
After the five guardsmen sheathed their swords, Jacob turned his head and shouted to the soldiers who surrounded them:
"As you can see! We have no ill intentions! We are not enemies! Are you sentry soldiers of the Knights of Michael?"
"That's right." The soldier dressed as a squad leader admitted, "We are the sentry soldiers of the Michael Knights! In front of us is the Michael Knights' military camp! Anyone who is not involved should leave immediately!"
While Jacob was negotiating with the group of soldiers outside the car, Gozevin, Gale, and Ilsa also opened the curtains of the car window and lay on the car window to observe the situation outside.
After hearing the word "no one else," Gale, who was staying in the carriage, couldn't help shouting outside:
"We are not irrelevant! Didn't your commander Su Cheng tell you who will be inspecting your military camp today?"
"Captain? No! I didn't receive any relevant notification!"
"Didn't your captain tell you who was coming to your camp today, and didn't he ask you to prepare?" Gale looked at the squad leader in disbelief.
No, it should be said that everyone - Gozevin, Jacob, Ilsa and the five Guards soldiers looked in disbelief.
Whether it was Albert or Iser, who did not urgently notify everyone that His Majesty was coming and then prepare the entire camp to receive it.
The Michael Knights were better off. Not only did no one know that His Majesty was coming, they also welcomed them with spears and arrows.
The squad leader's patience seemed to have been worn away at this time, and he shouted at Ge Zewen and the others in a very impatient tone:
"Okay, I have no intention of talking nonsense with you anymore! Leave now! If you don't leave quickly, I guarantee you will regret it!"
"We..." Jacob wanted to say something more.
However, before Jacob could finish his words, the captain took the crossbow of a soldier next to him.
After taking the crossbow, which was ready to fire, the team leader aimed at Jacob's feet and pulled the trigger.
laugh! !
The sharp arrow broke free from the shackles of the bow string and pierced the air,
It shot straight into the sand at Jacob's feet.
"Ah!!" After the squad leader pulled the trigger and the arrow hit the sand at Jacob's feet, Ilsa couldn't help but scream.
At this time, the faces of Ge Zewen, Gale, and Jacob also turned slightly pale.
"Leave quickly!" the team leader warned again, "If you don't leave, it won't be as simple as shooting the sand at your feet next time!"
After looking at the arrows at his feet and listening to the squad leader's threatening words, Jacob sighed softly.
When I was about to agree to the squad leader’s words and leave temporarily——
"Ah, I caught up. I caught up."
"We didn't catch up at all, okay?! Didn't you see that His Majesty's car was surrounded by soldiers standing guard?"
A young male voice and a young female voice suddenly came from a certain side.
Following the sound, everyone turned their heads and saw a black-haired young man wearing white and blue armor, and a blond beauty wearing white and gold armor, riding towards them leisurely... …
…
…
at the same time.
Britannia Empire, northern border, Legasus Mountains (Mount Bra), foot of the mountain, trading point for mountain barbarians (Lake people) and Britannia people.
"Son, starting from today, you will officially start to follow me and learn how to do business with the mountain barbarians. Our family's ancestors have been doing business with the mountain barbarians for generations, so doing business with the mountain barbarians can be regarded as our ancestral and family business. You You must study hard! Only then can you inherit our family business!"
A middle-aged man with a fat belly was teaching his young son who was not yet a minor.
"Well, Dad, I will study hard!" And the young son of this middle-aged man is also very motivated.
"The first thing I want to teach you is some common sense about mountain barbarians."
"You must remember - Mountain barbarians are the derogatory name we Brittanians give to their group of savages living in the Lygasus Mountains, so we can just scream in private, in front of them , you must not call them barbarians, call them Lake people."
"Lake people?"
"Yes, they call themselves Lake people. They are a ferocious, savage, and aggressive people, so if you accidentally anger them, they will most likely chop you with a knife."
"The barbarians turned out to be so ferocious..."
"But they will only become so violent after provoking them. Normally, they are still easy to talk to, so when trading with them, you must be careful and pay attention to your words and behavior. It is best to just Don’t mess with these savages who are still in the tribal period.”
"Yeah, I remember."
"The mountain barbarians live deep in the Lygasus Mountains. They call the Lygasus Mountains 'Mountain Bra' and live a life of half farming and half hunting."
"It turns out that mountain barbarians can also farm... I thought that mountain barbarians are just a bunch of wild monkeys that only know how to jump up and down in the mountains and woods, and drink blood from their hair..."
"Yes, the mountain barbarians can also farm. They mainly grow millet. However, their agriculture is quite underdeveloped. Their crops are basically digested internally, so they rarely trade crops with us. Basically, they They trade with us the antlers, animal skins, claws and other things they hunt. The mountain barbarians mainly use these things to exchange us for some daily necessities, mainly for some salt."
"Oh! It turns out that father, you only buy so much salt every time you buy goods!"
"The life of the mountain barbarians is backward and barbaric. They have not yet mastered the method of making salt. Now let me teach you some simple mountain barbarian language. Compared with the Xilan language, the mountain barbarian language is relatively simple. You are very You can learn it quickly. Learning these few sentences in mountain barbarian language will be very beneficial to your future bargaining with mountain barbarians. Are you ready?"
"Well! Father, I'm ready! Please teach me how to speak Mountain Barbarian!"
