MTL - Please Sink In Happiness-Chapter 104
Usually, Li Ergou hardly needs an alarm clock. Due to his years of experience on the battlefield, his biological clock has already become more punctual than an alarm clock, but this morning, Li Ergou woke up more than an hour late for the first time ever.
The sun shines down Li Ergou's fingertips on his handsome face, and the dazzling light makes Li Ergou unable to open his eyes.
"I'm so tired."
Li Ergou muttered.
Tired - this is the most intuitive feeling of his body at this moment.
He now feels that his body has become a puddle of paste, not only limp, but also transparent, and even with the help of sunlight, Li Ergou can faintly see his arm being penetrated by light, and spy on the little blood and blood left in him. Lymph fluid, the senses also seem to be sensitive, just raising his arm, it feels that Li Ergou has exhausted most of his strength in his life.
"Strange, I didn't seem to do anything last night?"
In Li Ergou's limited memory, last night he only accompanied the eldest lady to the military camp to participate in the entertainment. At the banquet, as a foil beside the eldest lady, Li Ergou just drank a little gin. That amount of alcohol did not constitute a hangover for Li Ergou.
After drinking, Li Ergou accompanied the eldest lady back to the officers' dormitory on foot to prepare to rest.
Before resting, Aishwana came to her room, hugged herself, and rubbed her body coquettishly like a kitten:
"I want to sleep with Ergou."
At that time, for some unknown reason, Li Ergou felt an indescribable discomfort when looking at Aishwana's splendid emerald green pupils, as if countless spiders were crawling on his back. When Li Ergou was wrapped around her neck by her wheat-colored arms, the tightness and suffocation suddenly made Li Ergou feel extremely depressed.
Therefore, Li Ergou naturally refused Aishwana's request to share the bed.
About thirty minutes after she left the room, Li Ergou also went to bed early.
This is all Li Ergou's memory.
"Speaking of which, Aishwana has been really..."
Sighing slowly, Li Ergou put on a tuxedo and tied a bow tie.
The morning exercise time has passed. Next, Li Ergou will cook breakfast for everyone in place of the seriously injured Charlene.
It was clear that Xia Leina was injured not long ago because she was not strong enough, but she was lazy and got up late after experiencing a strong enemy like Xinchuan Fenghuazi, which made Li Ergou feel a deep sense of guilt. I felt that if I worked harder, maybe Xia Leina wouldn't be hurt at that time. If I had more fighting talent, I could use her overwhelming strength to completely stop Xinchuan Fenghuazi from kidnapping her.
Before arriving in the kitchen, Li Ergou faintly smelled the smell of stewed creamed corn soup and pasta with macaroni. Li Ergou frowned. Who is in the kitchen at this time?
So Li Ergou quickened his pace.
In the kitchen, her pink hair like cherry blossoms caught Li Ergou's eyes. The girl with bandages all over her body was struggling to cook. She was holding the stove with one hand and the spoon with the other. , his lips were trembling, and he seemed to be on the borderline between being awake and unconscious.
In the corner of the kitchen, there was still Xia Leina's practice sword, and the wound of the bandage was bleeding faintly. Li Ergou yelled at Xia Leina:
"Idiot, what are you doing?"
"I...I think, it will come in handy..." Charena's injuries still haven't healed, and speaking to her, there is a danger of opening the wound.
But such a girl who should have been lying in bed all the time, actually got up early to cook breakfast for everyone as always, and the sword seemed to have just been used, and sweat and blood could be seen on the hilt.
"Do you know that this will make the wound fester? Not to mention that I'm not here? You don't need to make breakfast, let alone get up early to exercise, so give me a rest!"
Li Ergou walked to Xia Leina's side and grabbed the spoon from her hand.
"I... I can't go on, lie down!" Xia Leina's azure blue eyes flashed with extreme unwillingness, "Last time I lost to... Xin Chuan, Feng Hua Zi, I... I want to protect the eldest lady, protect you... Keep your promises. But I'm useless, I'm such a piece of shit..."
Tears dripped into the thick soup, and Charlene cried, the pear blossoms on her white cheeks were heartbreaking.
"Idiot, why are you carrying everything on yourself?"
"I am the... daughter of the Sword Saint."
It seemed that the wound was due to labor pain, and Charlene gritted her silver teeth.
"Hurry up and give me a rest, you are just fooling around."
"This morning, huhu..." Shalena panted, "I didn't see... your shadow. Don't be lazy... together, become stronger..."
"Ah, I know, let's get stronger together, but before that, go back and rest."
"No time to rest!" she cried through gritted teeth.
However, Li Ergou bent down involuntarily, and hugged Xia Leina's delicate body in the posture of a princess:
"How can I recover if I don't rest? If you continue to be stubborn and commanding to drag everyone down, give me a rest!"
"open…"
"Don't be brave until the injury is healed, and don't be arrogant enough to think that you can protect all your companions!"
"I'm... Miss Ivy's maid, I must..."
Li Ergou couldn't help her to continue talking. She hugged her body and ran back to her room. There was a portrait of a middle-aged man on Xia Leina's bedside table. The man in the painting was holding a long sword in high spirits. Ergou thought to himself that this was probably Sha Lena's Juggernaut father, right?
It was a man who looked very majestic, but had a gentle smile on his face.
Sending Xia Leina to bed, Xia Leina seemed to be planning to get up, and her unwillingness all along flashed in her tears.
She is so strong.
"Xia Lena, I know it's hard to endure, but you have to hold back. Not causing trouble to your companions is also a quality a maid must possess."
"I want to be stronger..."
Li Ergou looked at Xia Leina's painful expression, and felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
He had already regarded Shalena as a partner.
"Xia Lena, if your injury continues to deteriorate, it will be life-threatening. If you die, the eldest miss will be sad, and even I will be sad, do you understand? I don't want to hear the news of your death in my lifetime. ."
Looking at him with clear eyes like the blue sky, he blinked and blinked, as if he was lost in thought.
"I hope to see you reach the peak of kendo one day, but before that, you must give me life and don't be brave. Xia Lena, I understand your feelings, but people are very fragile. Once you die, you will die. Nothing is left. In the past, I used to think that misfortune was very far away from me, and death made me feel far away before my loved ones left, but when my loved ones quietly left me, I felt I don't even have time to stretch out my hand to stop it. So my partner, my nemesis, give me an early recovery, and when you are healed, how about we have a fight?"
Xia Leina turned her back to Li Ergou and only sobbed slightly.
Li Ergou stood up and planned to leave Xia Lena's room.
"Sooner or later... I'll beat you."
"Okay, it's a deal, I'll wash my neck and wait for that day to come."
During breakfast, Charlene didn't make any more fuss.
Chapter 176 The Day of Expedition
In the early morning of the day of the expedition, the garrisoned troops in the city of Liege were doing the final pre-war preparations. The magician in the center of the city was checking the magic equipment, the knights of the knights were feeding their mounts with good fodder, and the rifle team. Soldiers are checking their flintlocks for moisture or malfunctions.
"The next step is a decisive battle. Whether the Kingdom of Shengluer can create another glory depends on your efforts!"
Admiral Grouchy checked the situation of their respective troops with their heads held high. As long as they can break through the defense line arranged by the enemy on the eastern front, they can echo the northern front commanded by De Gaulle, thereby hitting the Federal State of Fars in one fell swoop. s capital.
The price paid for this was just some innocuous, humble lives.
In the opinion of Admiral Grouchy, human life is a series of cold numbers. Letting civilian officers as cannon fodder attract enemy artillery fire, and he leads elite troops to attack the enemy's flank, which is also a sacrifice that the enemy country has to make. So his conscience wouldn't even be condemned.
He has said in the past that we only need a few thousand dead to sit at the negotiating table.
In his eyes, the life of a soldier is nothing but points to exchange for honor.
The officers who knew that they might be about to step into the Invalides as heroes had no intention of resisting at last. Although Grouchy's methods were dirty, he could at least exchange for victory. For those officers who knew that death was ahead and still went ahead In their eyes, in order for the country to win, even if they become a martyr, they will die.
"Farewell, Lieutenant Lianqing."
After nine o'clock this morning, an endless stream of officers came to Miss Ivy's officer dormitory, wanting to take a last look at this respectable person who can speak for the lower-level officers and soldiers.
Miss Ivy's face was surprisingly pale. In the end, she was still powerless to stop the officers and soldiers from rushing to the most dangerous battlefield. The battlefield should indeed be dead. This is common sense. However, how can a general let a soldier die for the sake of death and set foot on the battlefield?
This is unreasonable, let alone unreasonable.
"Lee, let's go to Grushi one last time."
However, Darlan, who was about to go to the front line, stopped the eldest lady:
"You have done enough for us. Even if our troops are exposed to the most dangerous position, as long as we can win in the end, we will die without regrets."
"But... your corpse will become a tool for their success. I don't agree with such a result."
Darlan just smiled, and then led the troops to leave.
About two hours later, Pengmei finally came to shake hands with Miss Ivy, and wished each other their victory. Immediately afterwards, Fix and Brand also came. Two officers of different genders and races, but of the same humble background, were ready to join hands to die together. If they could come back alive, maybe they would form a family. In addition, there are some officers who have confessed to Miss Ivy, at least expressing their feelings clearly before her death, so that they will no longer have to worry about it.
Li Ergou stood beside Miss Ivy, quietly watching the backs of those leaving, so sad.
The eldest lady's delicate body trembled slightly in front of her, her eyes were slightly red, and before she knew it, the eldest lady's icy hand gently wrapped Li Ergou's hand, and the eldest lady clenched her hand to the point of ashen.
She is very unwilling, because she cannot stop the tragedy, so she yearns for power. With power, the tragedy can be restrained to the maximum extent, and the most important people can also be protected from being hurt...
"Li, when can I become as calm as you."
"I have met all kinds of people, and I have cried and shouted for the death of others, but they still died in battle, and they died in the most cruel way. The more I see, the more emotional it is. excited."
"The bond I finally built up, but in the blink of an eye, it vanished. Li, did you expect such an outcome?"
"After all, Grouchy is an admiral, and you are just a lieutenant, but grief and anger are good emotions. It will make you strengthen your own strength. Sooner or later, you will successfully complete your revenge."
Miss Ivy closed her eyes quietly.
"Don't worry, presumably this time, some of them will come back alive, so don't be too pessimistic."
"Don't console me with illogical words, I'm not a child."
"But you're praying for them from the bottom of your heart, and sometimes prayer is powerful."
Li Ergou showed a mysterious smile, knowing that something that is about to be lost but irretrievable is lost and recovered, will make people cherish even more.
Although the eldest lady will be saddened by the defeat soon, she will also be happy for the officers who survived the battle to come back alive.
And most importantly, Miss Ivy has grown.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, more than 100 soldiers under Miss Ivy's command had also come to gather downstairs. They stood upright and were in good spirits.
Now it's time for the eldest lady to go out. Compared with the main battlefield of the eastern front of Admiral Grouchy, the eldest lady's task is to follow the troops of Major General Leclerc to support the northern front. a road.
It can be seen that although the relationship between Admiral Grouchy and the eldest lady is incompatible, he is still thinking of Miss Ivy's safety. After all, if the marshal's daughter dies in his eastern army, his future career will also be determined. It will be affected. As an admiral, he has coveted the position of Marshal for a long time. It is impossible for Miss Ivy to die by his side. Even if she does, she will die in De Gaulle's team.
At this time, a burly man walked up to Miss Ivy and gave a military salute, and the soldiers behind him also stood at attention.
"Lieutenant Lianqing, the entire company has assembled, waiting for your instructions!"
"lets go."
"Yes!"
Sitting in the carriage, the army set off from the north gate of Liege City. The civilians in the city watched from the sidelines. Although Ivy did justice for them not long ago, the invaders were still invaders. Perhaps in the eyes of the commoners, this is equivalent to Dogs cry mice for false compassionate behavior.
At the gate of the city, a cigarette in the hand of a middle-aged man who is quite friendly and Miss Ivy's father, Marshal Lianqing, is a brand of cigarettes. Judging from the middle-aged man's military uniform and the epaulet on the uniform, he is Sheng. A major general of the Ruul Kingdom.
Li Ergou suddenly remembered what Miss Ivy had mentioned before. At that time, she said that Major General Leclerc was her father's former department, and she had a very good personal relationship with De Gaulle, and she took good care of Miss Ivy on weekdays.
If I guessed correctly, this man is Major General Leclerc.
Chapter 177
The white iris flag fluttered in the wind, and the 2nd Cuirassier Division led by Major General Leclerc was gathering at the north gate of Liege at the moment, and set off on time at 4 o'clock in the afternoon.
At this moment, a carriage entered the middle-aged man's field of vision. The family crest of golden handguards and leaf logos floated on the carriage. Accompanying the carriage came an elite company of more than 100 people. Although it is small, it has all the internal organs. In the team, you can not only see relatively basic units such as riflemen and shield soldiers, but also rare cavalry, magicians, and engineers.
The middle-aged man looked at the team with scrutiny eyes, and nodded with satisfaction. From the mental outlook of the soldiers in the team, it can be seen that they must have received good training on weekdays.
"Major General Leclerc, who is this? What a big deal."
A closed-eye soldier muttered beside the middle-aged man.
The soldier's broken thoughts were exchanged for a man's hand knife:
"You kid give me some insight, Ivy is sitting in the carriage."
"Who is Ivy?" Xiao Bing asked, rubbing his forehead with some grievance.
"You ask who Ivy is? My God, I didn't expect you to be so stupid that you don't even know Ivy. Tell you, she is the biological daughter of Marshal Lianqing, an angel who came to the world! "
Afterwards, the man known as Shengluer's lion hunter who was decisively killed on the battlefield ran over to the carriage, and a major general went to pick up a lieutenant. This scene can be described as magical.
With the help of Li Ergou, the fair-haired elf girl slowly got off the carriage.
Major General Leclerc immediately stepped forward and asked for warmth:
"Ivy, has that old guy Grouchy bullied you again recently? You can tell your uncle if you have any grievances. If he bullies you, uncle, I promise I won't spare him! By the way, you are sitting in this carriage. Are you feeling well? Shall we get you a new carriage? The weather is hot, but you must be careful not to catch a cold. Oh, wait, you don’t seem to get sick easily if you have the blood of the blood and elves…”
Li Ergou's first impression of the man in the general's uniform in front of him was that of a rambunctious old woman. At the same time, Li Ergou also vaguely knew why Miss Ivy refused to go to the North of De Gaulle. If you really go to the northern battlefield, I am afraid that you will be spoiled like a princess, just like now.
Looking at the middle-aged man who was constantly caring about her, Ivy smiled helplessly:
