December 1, 1379 in the Metland Glory calendar.

Early morning.

Snowflakes swirl and fall.

In the large playground of the military university, nearly 10,000 shirtless recruits shouted trumpets and ran wildly.

Joe, who was dressed up brightly and neatly dressed and neatly dressed, rode Xiaobai and stood next to the playground, smiling at his sweaty classmates.

After looking at it for a while, Qiao whistled and waved his hand to the students of the Integrated Command Department who ran in front of him: "Beautiful vacation, although it is only two days, but you guys, envy it...... Ho Ho Ho, Hydrerabad's wine, food, and beauties...... I'm coming! ”

Joe laughed a few times, then turned his horse's head and ran in the direction of the gate of the Military University. His face flushed as he ran—damn Oslon, who had approached him last night and asked him to come to the playground this morning and shout like this......

Shame, shame!

Run, run far!

Nearly three thousand freshmen of the Integrated Command Section stared at Joe with envy and jealousy.

Damn bastard, two days off, you fuck off, and come here to show off...... What a damn bastard.

Several noses and faces were swollen, and in yesterday's individual martial arts minor class, the freshmen who were beaten into pig's heads by Joe stared straight at Joe's back and were ruthless. They are all military nobles, and they have been trained in breathing and sequential potions since childhood, and they all have extraordinary combat power.

They swear...... In next month's individual martial arts minor, they'll be sure to give Joe a little color.

Joe rode away.

Osrom stood beside the playground and shouted a reprimand to the freshmen of the Integrated Command Section who ran in front of him: "Envy? Jealous? Ha, of course I know that you little cubs are envious and jealous, and you also want to go to the imperial capital for two days! ”

"But you don't have the qualifications!"

"This is the Imperial Military University, and certain privileges are allowed here...... But only the best are eligible for the privileges! ”

"You guys aren't good enough, so you're not eligible for privileges!"

"Two days off, oh, oh, it's precious, isn't it? You bunch of trash, you bunch of idiots, you let a newcomer who came in halfway get the first place! ”

"This morning's morning exercise, add ten miles! Run for me, run, run! ”

Ostrom roared loudly, increasing the amount of training for the freshmen who were exercising in the morning out of thin air.

The freshmen wailed in unison, gritted their teeth one by one, and panted out in stride. Suddenly, someone in the ranks shouted, "Kill that fat man!" ”

"Yo hoo...... Kill that fat man! The first-year freshmen of the Integrated Command Department erupted into a neat roar.

Ostrom stood by the playground with his hands behind his back, smiling extremely unscrupulously like a group of instructors.

"Young people should have such spirit...... Tsk, we have to discuss with Joe's bastard, and ask him to cooperate with us and stimulate this group of bastards more. Osrlung and the deputy head of the grade next to him laughed under their breath, and secretly discussed how to squeeze Joe's surplus value to the extreme.

Joe rode Xiaobai, showed the false slip signed by Ostrom to the military gendarmes on duty, and after some registration, one man and one horse passed through the long gate of the main gate of the military university, crossed a trench as wide as thirty feet along the drawbridge, and turned east and west through the serpentine barbed wire position with a width of two hundred feet, and finally came to the normal road.

Marcos, Big Ivan, Lan Mu Hibiscus, and Lan Kikyo were already waiting on the side of the road with a group of family guards.

Joe blew a whistle, Lan Mujin and the others got on their mounts, and the burly Marcos and Big Ivan got into the special load-bearing carriage, and the group marched through the bloody kapok mound towards the core area of Hyderabad.

On the way, Big Ivan triumphantly reported to Joe about his achievements these days.

After the remnants of the Blizzard were identified by the Imperial Police Department for attacking the Royal Train, more than 1,100 lucky people with lesser crimes were released.

Big Ivan took a group of henchmen and subordinates to the Ruhr City region, and went to some surrounding areas to hang around, taking the Golden Mark allocated to him by Mr. Digns, squandering, recruiting troops, and tossing for more than ten days, and now the blizzard war group has nearly 6,000 people.

These people are all from the Lucian Empire.

Among them, there are rebel generals like Big Ivan, there are also officers who have failed in battle and fled in fear of military law, and Lucian soldiers who have fled for various reasons, including deserters who have absconded after the incident with black guns from their own officials.

In addition to these Lucians from the army, Big Ivan also recruited a large group of Lucians with complex origins and unverifiable backgrounds.

These Lucians are fierce and aggressive.

Among them, there are robbers, kidnappers, robbers, and killers...... They join gangs in and around the Ruhr region, or set up private casinos, or loan sharks, or tolerate prostitution...... In short, they do everything but good things.

Because of the special conditions of the Lucian Empire, these people are basically illiterate and dull. They basically have nothing else to do except dare to play hard.

They join gangs, and the leaders of those gangs are mostly natives of the Delen Empire, or from other ethnic groups, such as the Portusse, etc...... These Lucians, who only serve as the cheapest thugs, bodyguards in the gang, are often thrown out as cannon fodder scapegoats.

Great Ivan was very prestigious among these Lucians.

When the Great Ivan shouted and smashed a large number of Golden Marks, these Lucians who were at the lowest level of society immediately gathered and brazenly joined the blizzard warband.

Joe sat on horseback and looked at Big Ivan with shining eyes: "Good job, but, take care of them, don't get me into trouble!" ”

Jo said to Big Ivan very seriously: "I promise them that they will have no worries about food and clothing, and that everyone can have jingling gold marks and silver finnigs in their pockets, but they are not allowed to trouble me unless I give the order!" ”

Big Ivan licked his lips and nodded nonchalantly: "Don't worry, you pay the money, you are the boss, you are the uncle...... We eat with you, take your money, work hard for you, and whoever dares to disobey, we will do it according to the rules of Lucia. ”

Joe gave Big Ivan a deep look: "Very good...... Bastard, I don't know why you listened to His Highness Salian, and why you obediently stayed with me...... But as long as you're honest, I can't treat you badly. ”

Big Ivan's huge head came out of the car window, he flicked his tongue hard, made a crisp 'pop' sound, and smiled at Joe with satisfaction: "Don't worry, with me, those bastards don't dare to mess around...... Hey. ”

Big Ivan finished talking about his achievements these days, and Marcos also recounted what he had done these days.

Like Big Ivan, Marcos is also recruiting.

Unlike the group of scoundrel bastards that Big Ivan had gathered, Marcos specifically sought out the retired elites he knew on the front lines of the Great Plains of Rule. He didn't recruit many people, only four or five hundred.

Previously, Justice Bell and Lord Willon forcibly framed Joe, and they mobilized the police of the North Branch to attack 158 Ching Pine Street. Marcos's bloody axe regiment and the police clashed brazenly, and the losses were a bit heavy.

The newly recruited veterans made up for the battle damage of the Blood Axe Battle Regiment, and because Marcos deliberately selected them, the average strength of the newly recruited fighters was higher than the previous one.

"In just these two days, I'll give you a new batch of ordnance." Joe nodded to Marcos: "A batch of powerful things, and the current flintlock rifles are completely different things......"

"Young Master Qiao, you can't favor one over the other." Big Ivan's head came out of the car window again, and he kept nodding at Joe with a smile on his face: "Look, I have so many people under me now, and I have good things, and you have to ...... too"

Joe pointed at Big Ivan, "Good things, there are, but at least, you have to do something for me first, so that I can 'really' trust you...... Old Grandmother Mary is right, Big Ivan, you don't look like a good person at first glance......"

The corners of Marcos' mouth hooked slightly.

Big Ivan snorted coldly, and he slapped his chest hard: "I'll let you see, what I Big Ivan promised, I will definitely do." ”

Pouting, Big Ivan pretended to raise his head: "Ha, by the way, what's better than a flintlock rifle?" Tsk, the Lucian Imperial Army, still using the most old-fashioned arquebuses, is it not the same to fight? ”

Joe ignored the guy.

Lan Mujin was still cold and silent, and Lan Ki came up and told him about the changes at No. 158 Qingsong Street these days.

After Joe was admitted to the Military University, Mr. Stans and Ya made a major construction project to make extensive renovations to the underground buildings at 158 Sing Pine Street. Most of the underground passages that extend in all directions have been blocked, and some secret doors and the like have also made huge changes.

The current 158 Qingsong Street is already a strong stronghold, and there will never be an inexplicable incomprehension of people and a large number of planted items.

"The biggest problem now is the residence of those people recruited by Big Ivan in the imperial capital." Lan Kikyo sighed: "The people from the police department are staring at us all day now...... Those Lucians all have criminal records, so thousands of 'good people' are gathered together, and the police department did not transfer people to surround No. 158 Qingsong Street, which is already very face-saving for us. ”

"It's not a problem, it's going to be solved soon...... This damn snow. Qiao looked up at the gray sky and shook his head: "Let's go to a place first, the cathedral of the Silver Gui Church in the imperial capital." ”

"When I'm done with business, these little things will be easy to solve."
