Lord Highlander

Chapter 1415: 1402. The Night of the Grassland

The officers of the Bena Legion Command are still sitting on the sand table and conducting various war games, while Suldak’s West Route Army has long been stationed along the Ganda Er Mountains to prevent the Bena Legion from recovering Kern. At the time of Berg, the army of evil spirits on Moyun Ridge came out to make trouble.

For such a long time, the evil ghost army on Moyunling only launched a few attacks on Handanar County, but every time they were stuck at the node where the Bena Army made a big move, it really gave The Benar Legion has brought a lot of trouble.

This time, Suldak was stationed in the forest camp, and the tasks he needs to be responsible for are relatively easy. It can also be seen from this that Grand Duke Newman also has some ideas of supporting Suldak. After all, Suldak can be regarded as Bena The most outstanding of the province's new generation of lords, he has fought well in several battles, and he is a second-rank paladin with outstanding strength.

A year ago, there may have been many noble lords in Bena Province who didn't know the name Suldak.

But now Suldak has almost become synonymous with the army of Marquis Luther.

After meeting Gabi and Ulysses, this can be regarded as a worry in Suldak's heart.

Under such circumstances, Suldak felt that he had no reason to stay in Handanar City, so he went to the logistics office of the military headquarters to urge the supply of ghost pattern soldier ants, and brought the two-headed cannibal Moguliteum left the city of Handanar.

The two of them headed north all the way, intending to cross the big meadow and return directly to the forest camp.

This large meadow in Handanaer County is a rare pastoral area, where hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep are herded. Nothing went wrong.

And so many cattle and sheep are also a big hidden danger in Suldak's heart. Suldak led the ant cavalry and almost slaughtered the hunting group there in the Samostuo River. Now the evil spirits on Moyunling The legion is like a hungry wolf who is hungry, and they are likely to set their sights on the rich meadow in order to fill their stomachs.

So he didn't dare to bet on whether the evil spirit army on Moyunling would enter the big meadow in advance. Once this evil spirit army broke into the hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of grassland, the West Route Army would probably be led by the evil spirit army. Nose running on the big meadow.

It was precisely because of this consideration that this time Suldak hurried back to make combat deployments ahead of schedule.

...

For the two-headed ogre, this trip to Handanar City can be regarded as a very boring trip. Handanar City is congested in a mess. Although the guard battalion knights in the city are working hard to maintain law and order, But the slums are still very chaotic.

The ogre seldom ate good food in Handanar City, and Gulitum inevitably felt a little resentment when he left Handanar City in a hurry.

The scenery here is appreciated, but what about the delicious food?

Breathing the fresh air on the grassland, standing on the mound and looking at the endless waist-high grass, Suldak felt that this place should be a paradise for herdsmen.

"Gulitum, tell me, among the monsters you've eaten, which monster's fresh meat is the best?" Suldak took out a piece of dried meat from a swamp giant crocodile from his pocket and chewed it in his mouth. side asked.

After the jerky is roasted and dried, it is beaten repeatedly with a mallet until the muscle fibers are completely broken up, and then it is pressed into thin slices.

This kind of food first appeared on the Bailin plane. Suldak's lord army captured the Three Rivers Plain, and cleaned up a large number of second-level monsters such as swamp giant crocodiles in the depths of the plain, because at that time, many monsters' fresh meat could not be transported back to Bena in time. It was sold in the city, so some military merchant groups bought these Warcraft fresh meat, and then used various techniques to make meat jerky.

Among them, the jerky produced by this technique tastes the best, and the production process is not difficult, and it didn't take long for it to spread among business groups.

The two-headed ogre stood up from the grass, looked at Suldak strangely and said, "It's rare that you care about these..."

"It's not too late to say now." Suldak smiled.

He thought of what the Duke of Newman had said to him before. The road to promotion for the second-ranked strong will become narrower and narrower, and the physical improvement brought about by exercise will become insignificant. Pay more attention to other aspects, such as eating some Warcraft meat that can improve physical fitness for a long time.

When it comes to food, the two-headed ogre suddenly becomes energetic.

Gulitum said: "Among the first-level monsters, the magic antelope meat is a very good ingredient. Among the second-level monsters, salamanders and double-headed snakes should be good. There is nothing to be picky about for the third-level monsters. It’s rare, it’s good to eat some.”

The good brother Naohua kept nodding his head in agreement.

But then the two-headed ogre said sadly:

"Speaking of which, almost all the demonic beasts in Mount Gandall have been killed by the evil spirits. Although our camp is at the foot of the mountain, the resources of magical beasts here are far behind that of the Bailin plane."

Walking all the way north along the big meadow, Suldak couldn't help sighing in his heart when he recalled the scene of being hunted down by the ghost warrior and fighting for his life on the grass.

In the evening, the two camped on the west bank of a tributary of the Pasiedi River. Speaking of it, it was just a simple marching tent built by Suldak. The two-headed ogre prefers to lie directly on the grass with its head resting on the The earth, looking up at the stars and falling asleep.

Suldak is going to wash up by the river, and then check to see if there are any fish in the river. It is best to have two grilled fish for dinner for a change.

When it was getting late and the light had become extremely dim, I saw a large herd of cattle appearing on the opposite bank. When the cattle and sheep came to the river, they couldn't wait to drink in the river. The noise and the smell of cow dung were overwhelming. come.

The herd of cattle stretched for nearly one kilometer on the other side of the river, and a group of herdsmen on Gubolai horses shouted behind the herd.

Suldak looked at the other side of the river helplessly, regretting why he chose this place when he set up the camp. He should have thought of it a long time ago. The night by the river would not be too quiet. Now he looked at the people on the other side drinking water Niu, I really lost all good mood.

The herdsmen on horseback, long whips in their hands, moved out of the way as soon as they appeared.

They stood on the bank of the river and soon saw Suldak and Gulitum on the other side of the river.

After hesitating for a moment, Suldak didn't expect that those herdsmen were so courageous that someone came across the river on horseback, stepping on the chest-deep river.

It was a herdsman with local aboriginal blood, which could be distinguished only from his skin color and forehead.

He was covered with cowhide, got off his horse early, and came in front of Suldak.

"Friends, would you like to come to our bonfire party, where we have fine wine, barbecue and enthusiastic Popotans girl!" The herdsman said in fluent Imperial language.

Seeing Gulitum's expectant eyes, Suldak could only suppress the irritability in his heart, stood up and pointed to the two-headed ogre on the grass over there and said, "It's a great honor to be able to participate in your bonfire party. ...That is my friend, Gullitum and Brainflower Brothers!"

Ever since the herdsman came across the river on horseback, Gulitum and Nao Hua'er had been paying attention to him, and now they heard their warm invitation, and immediately regained their spirits.

When the herdsman saw Gulitham's burly body from the twilight, he was startled at first, but then he said cheerfully, "Welcome!"

When Suldak crossed the river on horseback, he realized that herdsmen were still driving their cattle over in the distance.

The herdsmen drove the cattle together and let them drink water and graze by the river. Everyone gathered together, exchanged warm greetings and talked about each other's recent situation, recent experiences, and some new news they heard.

Surdak found that this kind of bonfire party is more like a means for everyone to exchange information in the big meadow.

A large bonfire has been set up on the grass not far away, and a whole cow is placed on an iron frame. Four herdsmen are standing aside and are vigorously rotating the grill. The cow has been roasted and dripping down. Grease, the herdsman brought Suldak and Gulitum to the campfire, and went to greet the others warmly.

Everyone gathered in front of the bonfire, waiting for the night to slowly fall.

A few bold nomads approached Surdak, looked at his attire and asked curiously, "Are you an adventurer or a mercenary?"

Over there, there are herdsmen girls in leather skirts holding pottery wine jars and starting to pour wine for the people sitting on the grass. They have thin braids on their heads and are well-proportioned. brisk.

"Neither, I serve in a lord's army." Suldak glanced at the horse behind him, and replied truthfully.

Suldak could feel that the herdsmen breathed a sigh of relief.

"So this big man is your subordinate?" Then someone asked tentatively.

Suldak replied readily: "They are my friends."

At this time, a winking herdsman brought a half-roasted beef leg to Gullitum. Obviously, the ogre brothers didn't care how cooked the beef leg was. They tasted it first, and then He started eating and drinking unceremoniously, and the depression of the day was swept away on his face.

Suldak patted his forehead, he didn't expect that Gulitham's bad mood could be reversed only by a meal of roast beef.

An old herdsman with wrinkles on his forehead approached Surdak and said to him, "We are herdsmen on this grassland. We live by grazing animals. We have such a large gathering every month. The main reason is to exchange some information with each other, after all, in this big meadow, it is difficult to meet a few people, and it is even more difficult to obtain outside news."

Then he handed Surdak a glass of fruit wine with a slightly sour taste, and asked again, "Where do you guys come from?"

Suldak quickly replied: "Handanaer City."

He only took a sip of the fruit wine, then secretly put down the glass.

"Can you tell me the news over there?" The old herdsman looked at Surdak expectantly.

There were even a few herder girls in costumes surrounding them.

Suldak didn't know where to start, so he asked, "What do you want to hear?"

The old herdsman laughed. He felt that although Suldak was wearing a gorgeous armor, he was easy to talk to.

The old herdsman said to Surdak: "This night is very long, everyone can sit down and drink some fruit wine, and say anything you want, except of course lies!"

Suldak didn't delay either, so he said, "Alright then! Let's start with the increasing number of refugees in Handanar..."

Suldak sat down and talked about some recent events in Handanar City, especially the large number of refugees gathered outside the city, which led to an increase in prices in the city. Now the entire Handanar City is almost overcrowded.

"This news is really useful. It seems that tomorrow we have to take out some of the stored cheese and dried meat. We are driving some cattle to the city to see how much we can sell them for!" Excitedly ordered to the young man beside him.

The young herdsman replied honestly: "Got it..."

The more you go to the north of the big meadow, the more lush the water and grass here. The main reason is that there are often evil spirits in the north of the big meadow, so the herdsmen seldom drive their cattle to the north.

Slowly, the more north you go, the thicker the grass becomes.

In order for the cattle to have water every morning and evening, these herdsmen almost always migrate along the river.

Not long after, some herdsmen brought the roasted beef. The meat was roasted with a thin layer of meringue, which tasted very delicious.

Roast beef, fruit wine, this is the delicacy that the herdsmen entertain Suldak.

Then there were herdsmen girls dancing continuously, and they pushed the bonfire party to a peak.

There are even herdsmen girls who came to Suldak to show their unique enthusiasm, but Suldak didn't want to enter the tent with these hot herdsmen girls. These girls who have been herding all their lives probably need Sulda Ke being a cheap daddy...

After drinking some fruit wine, Suerdak felt dizzy, but there was no problem riding across the river.

After the bonfire dance was over, seeing that Suerdak was determined to leave and go back to the other side of the river, the herdsmen did not hold back too much.

However, Gulitum changed his decadent mood and accompanied Surdak to cross the river, saying excitedly:

"Dak, I didn't expect this to be a gathering spontaneously organized by the herdsmen. It was very lively, and the roasted cow was also very delicious..."

"I didn't expect there to be so many herdsmen in the big meadow. This meadow is too big, with herds of cattle and sheep... So no matter what you say, you can't let those evil spirits in!" Suldak squatted by the river, holding Wash your face in the clear river water.

Walking to the side of the tent, I saw Aphrodite leaning against the tent, hugging her knees, sitting there quietly.

Her eyes are like shining stars in the night sky, silently looking at the night sky.

Suldak walked over and sat beside Aphrodite.

"It's nice here..."
