Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 418
After finishing his visit to the garrison of Tumu Fort, Xia Houyan bid farewell to the somewhat tired Grand Duke Rosario, hummed the tune of "Dingjun Mountain", and returned to the camp of the Igor family along the same road.

What made him very gratified was that even though they had just set up camp, the good boys of the Igor family had already started intensive training and preparations:
The lord was satisfied to see that just at the gate of the Igor family camp, a group of Frost Maple Ridge fighters were practicing hard fighting:

Under the command of Pavol Eldridge's call sign, these Frost Maple Ridge warriors were punching and kicking a straw wooden dummy mercilessly, and the muffled sound of punches and punches could be heard.

However, Xia Houyan stared at these people with a cigar in his mouth for a while, and suddenly felt something was wrong:

Because even if the Haven Continent is a fantasy world with magical power...

...but "the wooden dummy will whine and groan from being hit" kind of thing...

...Isn't it too fucking fantastic?
"Fuck! Stop! What are you doing!" Xia Houyan hurriedly took off the cigar in his mouth, and walked forward in three steps.

Seeing the boss coming, the Shuangfengling wretches who were besieging the "wooden dummy" hurriedly stopped, and each of them stood upright and saluted the lord, with righteous faces on their faces.

Eldridge, who was acting as a "combat instructor" at the side, even tossed a red scarf, and exaggeratedly saluted the lord with an extra-large military salute.

However, once they stopped, Xia Houyan could see clearly:

The "wooden dummy" that was being beaten up by these wilderness thugs just now, from the appearance, is a very realistic anthropomorphic model——

——It's better to say, this is a fucking "wooden dummy"!
This is basically an unlucky human with a bruised nose, a swollen face, a crooked mouth and slanted eyes because his limbs were tied to a pillar just because he had just encountered a sea flat! ! !

"Who the hell is this?" Xia Houyan stared at this inhuman figure for three seconds, then turned his head and asked Eldridge.

"I don't make it." Eldridge replied lazily and nonchalantly, almost making the lord's nostrils smoke with anger, "We just, ah, just set up camp, this guy just, ah, ran over to scold the street, it's very mysterious .Jensen wanted to drive him away, but he still refused to listen, and continued to scold and beat people... crazy!"

"So you tied him up and beat him?" Xia Houyan looked at Eldridge in shock.

"It's none of my business, ah, it's none of my business." Eldridge waved his hands again and again, "I just turned around, ah, someone has already tied him to a post and started beating, ah, starting beating I can only say that it is, ah, a miracle!"

Xia Houyan was speechless.

He glared at the Shuangfengling soldiers who were laughing around him, then stepped forward and looked at the unconscious humanoid organic matter on the pillar.

What made him breathe a sigh of relief was that at least this guy hadn't burped yet, and was in a half-dead state——

——I have to say that the thugs in Shuangfengling are still very artistic when walking the rivers and lakes, especially in controlling the strength of their fists.

Xia Houyan pulled up the neckline of the unlucky guy on the pillar, stretched his tattered military uniform due to long-term beatings, observed it carefully, and then sighed.

"What the hell is this guy wearing is the military uniform of the Imperial Central Army?" Xia Houyan grabbed the crooked captain's epaulettes and looked at Eldridge viciously, "Pavor, don't tell me the fuck Lao Tzu, you didn't recognize it at the time!"

Eldridge shrunk his neck in the red scarf and muttered:
"That's it, different people have different opinions, ah, different people have different opinions..."

Xia Houyan cursed silently, then searched the "Pillar Man" again, and finally found a small piece of Imperial Army soldier's plaque made of brass.He narrowed his eyes and read according to the inscription on the soldier's badge:

"Rick Greenspan...Captain and company commander of the [-]rd company of the [-]th Brigade of the [-]nd Army of the Imperial Central Army..."

Eldridge whistled an irrelevant whistle from the sidelines.

With a wave of his hand, Xia Houyan slammed the "Captain Greenspan" badge on Eldridge's face, causing the latter to stagger.

Now, with his ass, he can guess what happened to the gang fight at the gate of the camp!
The cause of everything must be that the "Captain Rick Greenspan" of the Imperial Central Army did not know where his brain was missing, so he ran to the Shuangfengling camp here to scold and find fault.

It should be unlucky for this guy. At that time, the one who organized the soldiers of the Igor family to camp at the gate was neither the well-mannered Knight Commander Cousins, nor the knight-minded Alice, but the dog Pavol Eldridge. !

As a direct descendant of the Eastern Army of the Empire, Eldridge has repeatedly expressed his disdain for other regular imperial troops when he was in the land of the broken soul. An overhead eye with a dropped frame——

Today, for no reason, he was beaten up by a small captain of the Central Army. Has Eldridge ever been so angry in his life? !

I can also imagine that Eldridge must have gotten angry all of a sudden, and directly directed the surrounding "artists" in Shuangfengling to put Captain Greenspan on the post, tie him up and beat him hard.

If it hadn't been for his official Xiahou who came back in time, it's really hard to say whether this Captain Greenspan would have been beaten to death on the pillar like this...

Xia Houyan gave Eldridge a hard look again, and then squeezed the space between his eyebrows.

This terrible incident that happened at the gate of my camp is not a big one, but it is not a small one:

To put it bluntly, it was a quarrel between a group of soldiers in the imperial army camp, and finally a crowd brawl-according to the military law, the perpetrator was honestly hit with a few army sticks and it was over, Eldridge skin If the meat is thick, sprinkle water;
But the most important thing is that the identity of this Captain Greenspan is really special-he is a member of the Central Army under the Marquis Lane Grant!

According to Grand Duke Rosario's reminder, Marquis Grant, the commander of the Central Army, is dissatisfied with the Igor family because of the idiot wandering mages in Lianhua Ridge. If this matter becomes troublesome, let Marquis Grant The No. [-] man on the front line of the Eastern Front took advantage of the problem, and that Shuangfengling was really uncomfortable.

What's more, Xia Houyan didn't know until now, why did Captain Greenspan come to the Igor family's camp in broad daylight to spray dung and make trouble?
He instinctively believed that the Marquis Grant might have instigated this matter secretly, in order to give the "Frost Maple Ridge Workers' Art Troupe" a solid blow!As for Shuangfengling's beating people, it was a mistake. If the follow-up was not handled properly, Marquis Lane Grant would really grab the pigtails.

The more Xia Houyan thought about it, the more likely it was a plot by the Marquis Grant——

——After all, Captain Greenspan couldn't be the one who drank too much and came here to make a fool of himself, right?

"Niang Xipi..." Xia Houyan cursed sullenly, and felt that he hadn't encountered a good thing these days, "Jason, come here and tell me what's going on?"

Hearing the lord's call, a young Shuangfengling soldier hurriedly stood up.

This young man named "Jason" is a native resident of the Land of Cracking Soul. He is only 16 years old this year, and he still has several pimples on his face.The most famous deed of Jensen Jr. is that he had just joined the Igor Pioneering Army. During the siege and suppression of bandits in the wilderness in Shuangfengling, he was so lucky that he picked up the omissions and made up for four cottage owners. It is "Tongque Terrace No. 1 Dog".

This time, for the sake of auspiciousness, the "Shuangfengling Labor Army Art Troupe" took him with them when they went north.

After being personally questioned by the lord, Little Johnson's face was so excited that it glowed.He gave a military salute vigorously, and said loudly:
"Lord, lord... Please don't blame Commander Eldridge! This, this captain of the Central Army just ran over and scolded people, and the scolding was terrible!"

"No matter how badly he scolds, it's not the reason for you to beat people casually!" Xia Houyan severely criticized and educated the young soldier of the Pioneering Army, "Have you seen the court trial in Lingmin Square? Someone stealing means that you Can you also rob?! Others spray dung with their mouths full, so you have to swallow a mouthful of dung and spit it out to retaliate?!"

"Yes... yes! Lord Lord, you taught me the right thing..." Little Johnson blushed in shame and said with his head down.

"Tell me. What did Captain Greenspan scold at that time?" Xia Houyan sighed, put the cigar back into his mouth, and muttered.

"Yes...but my lord, he scolded really badly at that time!" Little Johnson reported timidly, "As soon as Captain Greenspan came to the gate of our camp, he began to call the people in this camp trash ..."

"It's understandable. After all, the first thing he saw was Grand Commander Eldridge." Xia Houyan ignored Eldridge who wanted to speak out, and continued to ask, "Then, what else did he scold?"

"He, he still scolded..." Jason said cautiously, "...he also scolded the soldiers of our Igor family, all of them should go to the brothel street in the imperial capital to sell their butts..."

"Extremely ridiculous." Xia Houyan exhaled a puff of smoke ring, shook his head and sneered, "May I ask our brothers from Huangpo Military Academy who don't know that soldiers are not allowed to do business? Has he scolded anything more excessive?"

"Yes... Yes, yes." Little Jason's forehead was sweating, "But my lord, it's too ugly, I can't say..."

"Say whatever you want!" Xia Houyan laughed with a cigar between his fingers, "We don't have so many taboos in Shuangfengling!"

"Yes..." Jason swallowed, and gritted his teeth, "This Captain Greenspan, at that time, viciously cursed the lord of Frost Maple Ridge... that is, cursing you, my lord... that... never... no Lift."

Xia Houyan took a puff of his cigar, his eyes became deep.

"Boys, you have learned an important lesson in life from the venerable Grand Commander Eldridge." He clapped his hands and announced to the Frost Maple Ridge thugs who participated in the beating incident, "Sometimes, blindly Forbearance is not the best way to solve the problem, and some sluts in the society must be hit hard!"

All the boys nodded like chickens pecking at rice.

"Send this son of a bitch to the Enzie troll for treatment. If he dies before he catches his breath, the problem will be serious." Xia Houyan tapped the unconscious person on the pillar with his cigar-tipped finger. Captain Greenspan, "Jason, you, and the brothers who were present at the time, go to the clerk to make a record—since this stupid captain made the first insult, even if the Marquis of Lane Grant came to the door in person, I’m not afraid of him either! Damn, dare to come to my territory alone to spray dung, this guy has never died..."

"Well, Lord Lord..." Eldridge raised his hand suddenly, "You seem to have a small misunderstanding, ah, misunderstanding... At that time, he was not alone, he came by himself... Ah, there is a brother. "

Not alone?Xia Houyan blinked, and Jason nodded quickly and said:

"Yes, my lord, when Captain Greenspan came to the door, he was followed by a lot of people from the Central Army, and his clothes looked like non-commissioned officers—but after we fought, those people They all ran away..."

"They seem to say that they want to report and call for help!" Another Shuangfengling thug raised his hand.

Help?Xia Houyan was stunned for a moment, then said:

"Did they say at the time, what kind of gang are they going to call..."

Immediately, without any need for an answer, he heard a scream from a distance:
"That's right here! Yes, they beat Brother Rick! Lord Marquis Grant, you must uphold justice for our brothers in the Central Army!"

The expression on Xia Houyan's face froze.He turned around, and sure enough, he saw a middle-aged general with red hair and a stern expression, surrounded by a group of non-commissioned officers, striding towards the camp of the Shuangfengling Labor Art Troupe.

The red-haired general's slightly hesitant face was filled with the desire to fight if he wanted to fight.

"It's the Marquis of Ryan Grant! The Commander of the Central Army of the Empire himself!" Eldridge, who was fearless, seemed a little flustered at the moment, lowered his voice and said quickly, "My lord, why don't you take shelter in the tent -"

Xia Houyan did not answer, but took a deep breath of the cigar, then squinted at the Marquis of Lane Grant who was approaching, and asked leisurely:
"Pavor, from your point of view, how about Lord Lane Grant, the commander of the Eastern Army?"

Eldridge never imagined that at this tense moment of conflict, how could the lord suddenly have the pleasure of criticizing the characters of the empire?He hesitated for a long time, and tentatively replied:
"I think this is the Marquis of Ryan Grant... a chicken and a tile dog, and he sells his head with a label?"

The lord shook his head.

Eldridge said again: "Then...the dead bones in the tomb, why do you mind?"

The lord shook his head again.

Seeing the Marquis Grant getting closer, Eldridge said with a mournful face, "Then... what do you think?"

Xia Houyan smiled with a cigar in his mouth: "If you want me to say, this guy will definitely not do it!"

Then, under the stunned gaze of Eldridge, he threw away the cigar, held the president's command knife on his waist, and greeted the aggressive Marquis Lane Grant with a long smile.
