Use foreign lands to conquer the whole of Europe

Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Hadford Basque

When Angie was confused, Barton told her the ins and outs of the whole thing.

This thing started ten years ago.

Hadford was only a 15-year-old boy at the time, half starved to death, and fainted at the gate of the castle.

Although Slade's image in Glosk has always been bad, but people can't just lie upright at the door, so they picked him up, thinking about feeding him to blessings after he died—

"Wait a minute..." Angie couldn't help but interrupted, "What do you mean by feeding blessings?"

"Oh, haven't you seen it? Isn't Lord Slade wrapped in black water all the time~"

Barton didn't think there was anything wrong, looked sideways at Angie, and explained casually: "Those things need to be fed more to become stronger. It seems that the barrier also needs to be maintained by those things?"

???

This explanation of seeing a ghost did not make Anji understand this past better.

It even seems to have heard something extraordinary.

She couldn't help frowning, and helplessly rubbed her sore temples, motioning for Barton to continue.

In short, Slade could not wait until the boy died.

Hadford miraculously woke up the next day and begged her for food.

Slade did not grant his request.There are already enough servants in the castle, there is no need for another idler.

But Hadford said that he didn't want to be a servant, but was willing to serve her loyally and fight for her.

The boy's body is very thin, and it will take a lot of time to train him to the level where he can go to the battlefield.

But Slade does lack usable combat power.She decided to let the man try it first.

She asked her knights to take Hadford outside the barrier and stay for five days before returning.

As a lord, what she needs is an elite combat force that can survive in a foreign land. As for this person's life or death, it doesn't matter at all.

Everyone thought that this frail young man would die outside the barrier, eaten by those cursed animals, or the curse itself until only his bones remained.

Unexpectedly, ten days later, the knight came back with Hadford.

He has wandered through life and death in foreign lands countless times, and he also possesses strange powers, which can change the properties of some objects, such as making steel soft, or making flowing liquids thicker.

This ability to change the rules is definitely not weak, and he has also shown amazing growth. After only five days in the low-level foreign land, the endurance value reached [-].

Because of his outstanding performance and because of his voluntary loyalty to him, Slade regards him as his disciple, not only teaching him fighting skills and knowledge in person, but also taking him to various foreign lands in his spare time. experience.

Ten years later, the youthful young man has completely transformed, made countless contributions, and was promoted to be Slade's personal guard, and even rewarded him with the Tallinn Cowart area.

In Glosk, Slade's bodyguard has a very high status, second only to Slade himself, and there is even a saying that "seeing the bodyguard is like seeing the lord himself".

But then something happened that everyone couldn't believe.

Hadford actually betrayed Slade the day after he was promoted to personal guard.

He not only stole a lot of precious treasures, but also destroyed the barrier near the village of Gran when he left Glosk Territory, which caused the village of Gran and the forest near it to be swallowed up by the curse and turned into a foreign land. .

"..."

I don't know whether it's pain or anger, Anji's eyelids are twitching, and there are thousands of words in his heart——

It's all curse words.

Why have you been eating your own melon recently?
It's no wonder that I was suddenly drawn into a foreign land and was beaten to death by that broken forest.

No wonder Slade had such a weird attitude after he brought her back to the castle, and even asked "Who sent you here".

Just being betrayed by the closest person, and picking up a wild girl with a lot of patience, who would dare to believe that? !
These belated truths had too much impact on Angie, so that the intense soreness all over her body was somewhat diluted.

In fact, whenever she recalled the experience of being strangled by Slade, she would feel that she was too reckless at that time.

But now it seems that the "swear to die" at that meeting is the best answer.

If Angie had pretended to be loyal to Slade at that time, it would have reminded Slade of this "confidant" who had betrayed him, and maybe he would have been snapped off on the spot...

Hadford, you've done a lot of harm! !

Naturally, these complicated mental journeys cannot be shared with Barton.

Angie randomly picked something that Barton knew, and continued:
"So, it's that senior who made me homeless?"

When she said the word "senior", Barton's face flushed with anger, and he almost cursed again.

But the next second, when he heard Angie say that he was homeless, his original expression froze, and the rising anger seemed to be thoroughly drenched by cold water in an instant.

Seeing that this normally ignorant boy was observing him carefully, Anji returned him a very natural smile very intimately.

It was only then that Barton was able to make sure that there was nothing abnormal about her emotions, so he calmed down and continued what he hadn't had time to swear before:
"Senior, what a fart! Before he left, he even beat me up, and my sword was almost snatched away by him..."

Angie couldn't hold back, and laughed a little, but was immediately glared at by Barton.

"All right, all right, anyway, you need to know—don't mention this name in front of Lord Slade. These letters have become a taboo for Glosk!"

Although Barton brought a lot of personal emotions when telling these things, the credibility is still [-]% to [-]%.

And it is also consistent with what the villagers said last night.

The pain from all over the body made Anji a little dazed.

She rubbed her head and patted her face again, trying to focus again.

Why would Slade reuse a boy of unknown origin?

Apart from the amazing acting skills and talent possessed by this young man, the most important reason is that Glosk lacks elite soldiers, so she has to use any talented cats and dogs.

Why is it missing? She didn't do it herself.

The bloody past 50 years ago made Glosk, which was already underpopulated, even more lacking in people.

And the fearless are one in a thousand, or even one in a thousand, and naturally affected by the decrease in population, they become very few.

There is no shortage of ordinary soldiers, because everyone who lives in Grosk is a candidate for a soldier.

An excessive number of standing armies will consume a lot of financial and material resources, so it only needs to be properly recruited in special periods.

If it is missing, recruit more ruthlessly.

As for how the lords of this world fight, Angie has no clue now, but one thing is certain:

Easy to defend and difficult to attack.

If you want to take the initiative to attack, you have to send elite troops like the Comoran Territory, stationed in a foreign land, and even have to exchange fire with the enemy in a foreign land.

Ordinary soldiers have almost no tolerance for curses, and they can't even save their lives when they go out of the barrier, let alone go out to fight.

Therefore, the combat strength of a leader only needs to look at the fearless fighters under their banner.

This also means that no matter which lord the fearless person is loyal to, the treatment cannot be low.

But these don't explain why Hadford abandoned his great future in Glosk and went to Grabac next door.

Angie asked Barton this question that puzzled her.

"how could I know……"

Barton lowered his head and muttered in a low voice, with a strange expression on his face, "It's crazy... How dare you betray Lord Slade..."

Just as Anji was about to ask something more, the slight dizziness suddenly intensified.

Her little clear consciousness was quickly replaced by dullness and numbness, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and as Barton exclaimed, her body fell backwards uncontrollably.

　　This chapter has filled a lot of holes.

　　I found that although this book is now the fourth place on the Qingyun list, compared with the top three on the Qingyun list, it is really... rudimentary...

　　I'm sorry, it's my fault, the author of Laozi didn't even know how to add character information...

　　So I got up early in the morning and added the characters! (proud)
　　At least it looks better, doesn't it!
　　(It’s only [-] words to add these, I have some idea in my heart... I just ask you to scold me lightly!)

　　As for the pitifully small number of investors, I can't control this, let them go~~
　　I am now planning to post more backwards within the scope I can afford, and buy a new cover that looks better. It should be done before [-] words~
