Chapter 460

A team is moving forward on the rugged road.

The size of the team is not large, about 30 people. However, in terms of team specifications, this is the most standard travel specification.

The leader of the team is a knight. The reason why he is a knight rather than a cavalry is that both the mount and the armor have very obvious personal style characteristics, and there is a very obvious gap with others behind him. The person who usually shows his personality is usually a special cavalry or knight, but considering that he is the only one in the team with such personality, there is no doubt that he is a real knight.

There were six people behind the knight, all black and heavy armor, and even the war horses were dressed in heavy armor.

In addition to wearing a knight's sword at the waist, the six cavalry also had a knight's gun with a protective handle behind the mount. However, the length of this knight gun is obviously several points longer than that of ordinary Knight guns. In particular, the front part is clearly distinguished by white, black and red. Each section is about five centimeters long.

This knight gun is one of the standard weapons of the second cavalry regiment of the kingdom of dabion.

Three section Lance.

When the cavalry assault, especially the cavalry as the arrow part, usually because of the inertia of the assault, the lance can not be pulled out again when it penetrates into the enemy's body, resulting in the inability to play the role of the cavalry in the next continuous assault battle.

Based on this situation, Domingo hastin was made a new riding weapon: the three-stage Lance.

The principle of this cavalry gun is somewhat similar to the broken tail of a lizard. Once the cavalry gun cannot be pulled back in time due to the charging process, it can be abandoned through the section marked on the cavalry gun. In this way, as long as the combat personnel are not reduced on the spot due to the charge, the cavalry will not be unable to immediately put into the second charge due to the lack of weapons. Of course, the advantages of three-stage lance are more than that. Easy maintenance is also one of the biggest features of this kind of Lance.

However, this kind of cavalry gun is still in the trial stage, and the specific actual combat data have not been released. Therefore, the military headquarters of the kingdom of dabion is still in dispute about whether this kind of cavalry gun should be armed immediately. However, as the second Cavalry Regiment under Domingo's command, it has been fully equipped, and the second cavalry regiment itself is a heavy cavalry force, and the requirements for riding weapons are also very high.

Behind the six heavy cavalry of the second cavalry regiment were two carriages.

The first is a traditional carriage, which is a must for aristocrats to travel. Especially on a long journey, it usually integrates bedrooms and restaurants. In particular, the body length of this carriage is longer and wider than that of ordinary carriages. I'm afraid it's not just bedrooms and restaurants - it's not a problem for nobles in the world to order carriages of what specifications and functions as long as they have enough money.

The second carriage was a flat carriage, carrying goods arranged in different categories. It was obviously a baggage carriage.

After the carriage, there were thirty cavalry dressed as light cavalry.

However, whether these 30 people are light cavalry or not remains to be studied, because these people are not limited to using long guns as weapons, but even various kinds of weapons such as bows and arrows, long swords and shields. It is more appropriate to say that these thirty men are infantry cavalry or mercenaries than light cavalry.

"Are these people really OK?" In the carriage, a much younger young man took back his eyes that had stayed on the thirty light cavalry before, and his face looked a little worried.

"The people sent by master Gerson should be trustworthy." A solemn and dignified middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "don't underestimate the strength of mercenaries. These people have really grown up in countless life and death trials. Perhaps their discipline and advantages in all aspects are not as good as the army, but if they really fight, it is often difficult for the regular army to win these mercenaries under the same number of circumstances."

Said by the middle-aged man, the young man nodded modestly to be taught.

"If your brother inherits the territory in the future, won't you have an opinion?" The middle-aged man, Domingo hastin, looked at the young man in front of him and asked softly, "although I also want you to inherit the territory, the hastin family has the rules of the hastin family..."

"It's all right, father." The young man smiled and nodded, "I know you are also under great pressure. As an illegitimate child, it is enough for me to get your recognition and cultivation. So it doesn't matter who inherits the Hastings family. Relatively speaking... Among all the candidates for heirs now, I'm more optimistic about avi's brother. "

Domingo showed a gentle smile on his face. He reached out and touched the bastard's head, and then said, "you don't need to comfort me. If your brother avi has half your ability, I can really be at ease In the future, the Hastings family will tell the truth. It still depends on you and soma. Tingqi won't get worse because he has soma to assist avi, but I'm worried about the disobedience of other people. "

"Don't worry, father. They won't dare to mess around." The young man said seriously.

"I'm still there. They certainly don't dare, but what if I die?" Domingo said softly, with some indifference to see through the world in his eyes, "our Hastings family can get up, thanks to your grandfather's proximity to the nugus family, so now even if we are scolded by many people as the most barking watchdog of the nugus family, we are not qualified to deny it But what about this? Others can only talk about it behind their backs. Can we stop the prosperity of our family? "

The young man listened silently without opening his mouth.

He has maturity and steadiness completely inconsistent with his age, because the identity of illegitimate child has brought him too much trouble and let him see too much darkness of the world. In fact, it was the young man who was really favored by soma, but when the Hastings Presbyterian Council announced that there was no name of the young man in the candidate list for inheriting the head of the Hastings family, soma knew that no matter how good her talent and talent were, she could not compare with her orthodox origin.

It was at that time that soma's desire to compete for the heisting family's inheritance really faded.

The young man knew how much pressure his father was under when he admitted himself. At that time, he could hardly become the heir of the Hastings family. Of course, all this was actually said by his mother on his deathbed - before that, he even hated his father and his identity. However, things in the world are often so wonderful. When he knows all the truth, the young man doesn't resent his family at all.

Even, he was very grateful to his father.

"This time, after taking panda collar, I will give you this territory." After saying a lot of words, the young people listened silently. Until this moment, when Domingo suddenly said the significance of his trip, the young talent was really stunned. "Avi is not suitable to be a lord, but with the help of soma, it's no problem to take care of tinchien. But if there is one more panda collar, it will be completely beyond his ability Now I've heard that under the management of Sean Connery, panda is developing very well, so it's a pity not to manage it completely. If you want to sell this territory, you have to let the nobles take out a large transaction fee, so I'll give you this territory after thinking about it. "

"But..." some young people don't know how to answer, "I'm just an illegitimate son..."

"Are illegitimate children not my children?" Domingo looked at his dull son and suddenly became relaxed. "When I was young, I saw that you were very ambitious, but what's more valuable is that you have the ability to match your ambition. At that time, I was afraid that you would resent the family and be very sad. Why are you just an illegitimate child I even made many requests with the family elders, but they were always rejected. At that time, I actually thought that even if you can't become the next head of the Hastings family, I will make you a Lord. Even if you have any resentment against me, it doesn't matter, because I'm your father and you're my son. "

The young man stared at his father. He suddenly found that his father had gray hair.

But my father is just over 40 this year.

"So this time, when master Gerson of the nugus family came to me, I agreed without hesitation." Domingo smiled. "Take this territory as my first birthday gift to you."

The young man suddenly remembered that the agreed negotiation time with the Lord panda was August 3, which was his birthday!

"You know what?" Domingo reached out his hand and gently wiped the tears from his son's eyes, "I always hope that one day our Hastings family can become a really strong family. Even if we are on an equal footing with the nugus family, we don't need to hear other people's evaluation of our Hastings family as' a watchdog of the nugus family ', Although there's nothing wrong with being a loyal old dog, I still hope to be a man. "

"Father..." the young man clenched his fists. "I will live up to my father's hope!"

"If panda is in your hand, I can really rest assured of the Hastings." Domingo smiled and nodded, "with your talent and ability, with you as the backing of the Hastings family, the Hastings family can be really strong However, it is precisely because of this that we can only continue to wrong you. There is no way to give you the surname of Shanghai sting. "

The young man was still crying, but his face was smiling. At this moment, he really felt Domingo's father's love: "it doesn't matter what his surname is, father."

On August 2, 1873, Domingo hastin and clerk Thain Holm finally arrived in void city.
