Chapter 245 Live to Enjoy Glory
Alpha, the oldest, first noticed Liang Xiao's displeasure and quickly poked the other sisters. They looked at each other, lowered their heads, and stood aside with their hands behind their backs. When Brian saw it, he quickly stood up, like a rabbit, running away without a trace in a blink of an eye, making people unable to believe that he was actually a cripple.
"Master...Master." Alpha mustered up the courage, walked to Liang Xiao, and gave a deep salute. "Brian is indeed a famous skilled craftsman, but his treacherousness is also famous in Guishan City. I don't know how many people have cheated of money. Please don't trust him too much."
"Then you can't treat my guests like this."
"Yes, master, we will pay attention in the future." Alpha responded sincerely.
"Hey, master." Xigma, the best-aged man, performed a Chinese ritual playfully. Among the four, she was the smartest and learned Chinese the fastest.
Liang Xiao suppressed his laughter, snorted, and turned around and left.
Pang Shuo held the knife, followed closely, and thanked him repeatedly. "Thank you, sir, this knife is really great."
"You are my sword. The stronger you are, the safer I am." Liang Xiao said as he walked: "However, Lao Bu said something, and your swordsman seems to be a disadvantage. When you have time, go to Lao Bu for advice. The best knife maker is usually an expert in swordsmanship."
"Here. I understand." Pang Shuo nodded vigorously.
"Go and call Li Shuyun and Old Andrew."
Pang Shuo responded and turned around. Liang Xiao returned to his tent, and Alpha followed in and stood quietly aside. Liang Xiao frowned and slowed down his tone. "I don't need you to wait close to you, you can rest outside."
"Master, I have a request." Alpha said biting the words. She was familiar with some commonly used Chinese dialects. When she encountered new words, she would slow down her speech and her tone was a bit weird.
“What request?”
"We want to ask Brother Niu'er to teach us boxing."
Liang Xiao was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Tu Niuer. Tu Niuer laughed and said, "I think they are not very obedient, so I beat them up."
"Beat her...were you?"
"Yes. One against four. Their weapons are good, especially spears, but their fist skills are a little worse, and their foundation is still not solid enough."
Liang Xiao looked at Tu Niuer and heard the meaning from Tu Niuer's words. The largest Alpha, the four Amazon maids, was only sixteen years old, and the youngest Higma was only threeteen. Tu Niuer was fifteen when he was learning art. Zhongliqi once said that this was the last age to learn art, and it would not work if it was too late. Tu Niuer said this, and it seemed that he had the idea of training these four people.
"I understand." Liang Xiao waved his hand without comment and signaled Alpha to go out first. So far, he has no intention of actually leaving these four Amazon women by his side. When he thinks that this was arranged by Luo Xuli, he feels a little uncomfortable. He looks good and has a hot figure. What's the use of beauties who like castrated people can't afford to offend them.
Alpha wanted to persuade her again, but Tu Niuer gave her a wink. Alpha had no choice but to retreat.
After a while, Li Shuyun and Old Anlude came to the tent. Liang Xiao took out two new knives and placed them in front of them. "I'm about to get up and go to Daxia, you can stay here. I'll wait for Deputy King Meicai's orders. These two knives will be given to you for self-defense."
Li Shuyun was very moved. He was Liang Xiao's confidant and knew that there was very little iron that could be used to build such a knife. Liang Xiao spent a lot of money to buy less than 100 kilograms of raw materials. Xie Guanglong had only one spearhead, and Pang Shuo had only one new knife, but Liang Xiao gave them a complete knife.
"Sir, I like to use swords, so I should keep this knife for others."
Liang Xiao looked at Li Shuyun. "Shu Yun, you followed me all the way. You should see that the sword is not suitable for fighting immediately. Short swords and long spears are the best choice. You have enough ability to use swords. But can you ensure that those soldiers in Dayuan can master the skills of using swords so quickly?"
Li Shuyun frowned and pondered without saying a word. Although the sword is very harmful, it is not easy to practice swords, especially when using swords on charge horses. Swords are relatively easier to use, and many people who do not have family martial arts like to use swords. Because of this, whether you can use a good sword has become one of the symbols of whether you are a master. Li Shuyun likes to use swords, and there is also vanity in this regard.
However, Liang Xiao was right. He would lead Dayuan soldiers to deal with the Huns. In a short period of time, it would be difficult to expect those people to use their swords as well as him.
"For generals, we should adapt to local conditions and not stick to the rules." Liang Xiao picked up the knife and placed it solemnly in Li Shuyun's hand. "Only by victorious and surviving, we have the opportunity to enjoy glory. Do you think?"
Li Shuyun smiled embarrassedly and put away his knife. "Thank you, sir."
Liang Xiao presented another knife to Old Andrew. These two knifes were very practical, without any gold and jade, and without any gorgeous decorations, but they were real killing weapons. Old Andrew took it with both hands and gave a deep gift.
After arranging the relevant matters, Liang Xiao led the mission to set off again.
If he was to come to Guishan City, he would still be a fat man and hired a guard of honor for money. Now he is a serious local tycoon. Two hundred knights are all dressed in and angry, and they are full of energy, and they are pleasing to the eye.
Deputy Wang Meicai came to see him off in person. He told Liang Xiao that he had recruited more than 2,000 Greek soldiers and would soon complete the equipment. He would hand it over to Li Shuyun and Old Andrew, led by them to rush to the mountain pass to set up defenses.
"The deputy king is really thrilling and vigorous." Liang Xiao smiled and said, "With the deputy king being in the middle of the dispatch, the Wusun people can't get it even if they come."
"I still hope you can form an alliance smoothly. Dayuan alone is probably not a match for Wusun." Meicai was worried and held Liang Xiao's hand. "You must come back early, and I will feel at ease with you, the archer."
Liang Xiao smiled. It seemed that the bodies of Tuban and others had left a deep impression on the Dayuan people. He waved goodbye to Meicai and walked towards the Gasatis River. At the ferry, he saw a white horse, surrounded by more than a dozen knights, standing quietly on the grass by the river.
Liang Xiao shook his head helplessly and urged the horse to leave the team. Tu Niuer and Pang Shuo followed closely, and four Amazon maids also followed.
Luo Xuli was wearing a big red cloak, like a ball of fire. She looked at the Amazon maid who was approaching and blinked in confusion. "Don't you like them?"
"I'm afraid they will kill me in the middle of the night, so how dare I like them?" Liang Xiao smiled bitterly: "I appreciate the princess's kindness. However, I'd better ask the princess to take her back."
"Geeh... I was frightened by the reputation of the female Amazon warrior?" Luo Xuli giggled. "That's all legends. The Amazons are no longer the barbaric people. They are now like the Greeks, just poor and homeless people. If they are so barbaric, would I dare to give it to you? These four people were trained in the palace, and their ability to serve people is no worse than their ability to kill people. You can enjoy it with peace of mind."
Liang Xiao couldn't laugh or cry.
"If you really don't like them, I'll take them back and replace them with four people who won't kill."
"No need." Liang Xiao shook his head. Since he refused, it would be better to kill people. At least he didn't have to bother to take care of them when fighting. In fact, he also knew that these four maids could not be as bloodthirsty as the legendary Amazon female warriors, at least they did not cut off their right breasts for the sake of convenience.
"Alpha...how did you give them such a strange name?" Luo Xuli pouted and said angrily: "What a great name Pentesirya, he is the legendary queen."
Liang Xiao smiled. He couldn't remember the strange Greek names, so he simply used the Greek letters he remembered to number them.
Seeing Liang Xiao's pride, Luo Xuli was helpless. "Pent... Alpha, you know more about Alpha Chinese. You can learn some Greek with her. Higma is proficient in Persian. If you are interested, you can also learn a little with her. At that time, you can read the collection of books in the palace."
Liang Xiao's eyes lit up. If he could see the maps and ancient books collected in the palace, it would be a real profit. Central Asia is located in the heart of the so-called Eurasian continent, and after war, there was very little ancient book left behind. Most of the later history was based on Chinese classics and Western Europeans' research. They themselves did not have a complete history, so he also knew very little about Central Asia in this era.
Liang Xiao and Luo Xuli were talking, and the two black and white horses also touched each other's heads, and were very intimate. When Liang Xiao saw this, he said gratefully: "Thank you for giving the horse to the princess. I'm so ashamed that I haven't thanked you in person."
"This is what you deserve. You saved me and I will give you a horse. You helped your father defeat the cicada seal, so you got some of the property of the cicada seal. This is what you deserve. Although Dayuan is not as rich as a great man, he is trustworthy and will never treat his friends."
Liang Xiao then realized that no wonder the reward was so heavy, no wonder Wu Wu and Mei Cai were so generous, it turned out that this was a spoil. The people of Dayuan have Greek legacy, and everything is like doing business. Brothers, they settle accounts clearly and are not vague at all.
Luo Xuli called Alpha again, handed her a roll of things, and muttered a few words in her ear, and glanced at Liang Xiao from time to time. Alpha blushed and nodded repeatedly to agree. She talked to the knight beside Luo Xuli for a while before returning to the queue.
At this time, most of the team had already passed the floating bridge and crossed the Gasatis River. Liang Xiao bowed and said goodbye to Luo Xuli, and led Tu Niuer and others to the floating bridge and headed towards Daxia. Luo Xuli immediately looked at Liang Xiao's back, which was gradually moving away, and refused to leave for a long time. Liang Xiao walked out for about ten miles and could still vaguely see the white dot, like a pearl missing on the grassland.
Liang Xiao's heart was warm, and there was inexplicably more concern and entanglement.
Of course he was very happy and even a little proud of the beauties. But when he thought of the man in Huainan Kingdom, he felt a little uneasy. A man in Huainan, a talented woman in the Han Dynasty, a princess of Dayuan, and a pearl of the grassland, each of which is one of the most beautiful women. I wonder how many young and handsome men admire them, and what he can do, he actually took all of them. Will he be punished by God?—
