Chapter 198: Good stuff!
The Empire Avenue runs from the south to the north. It is a sky-raising road built by countless craftsmen and masters of skilled dwarfs in the Gangwu Empire over hundreds of years. It is also a guarantee of transportation connecting the central cities of major cities.
It not only connects major marginal passes, but also connects major trading ports, maintaining the blood flow of the empire like a main blood vessel.
The avenue is expensive, and there is a large inn every dozen kilometers, which can provide food, accommodation and supplies for travel, travel, shopping, and transportation. Of course... the price will be slightly more expensive.
For soldiers, these inns are free, but no one can satisfy the supply of tens of thousands of troops, so most of the supplies are carried by the army. It is very powerful that the inn can provide tens of thousands of people with hot water at the top of the sky.
Therefore, the army generally does not stop at small inns, and most of them march in a planned manner, reaching a large inn at a hundred miles before dark.
Marching a hundred miles a day is not a problem for the imperial elites brought by Rox, but it is a big problem for those newly joined illegitimate children.
In this hot weather, regardless of the heat, he had to carry a heavy salute. On the first day, many people couldn't stand it, and slowly began to fall behind...
But Rox ignored those who were behind. The whole country was waiting for him to take back the corpses of the head and soldiers. Of course, he could not slow down his journey for the fragility of some illegitimate children.
What's more, this is also a test for these kids who are about to enter the military, so that they can understand the high-intensity rhythm of the army in advance.
However, these illegitimate children have been trained since childhood, and their physique and willpower are much higher than ordinary people. On the first day, except for a few people who fell behind, most of them persisted.
But on the second day, most people couldn't do it. After resting for a night, their legs were even more like lead the next day, and they really didn't want to move at all.
Gradually, more people began to give up. It was still early to leave school anyway, so why should I follow these soldiers so desperately? Just to see the cheers of the people? Is it necessary?
Some people's children began to find excuses and gradually convinced themselves, and finally chose to stay on the hard couch at the station to have a good sleep.
Some people started to get infected like a plague. More and more people chose to give up, and they gritted their teeth and followed almost half of them the next day.
Seeing Rox shook his head secretly and thought to himself: In recent years, fewer and fewer people have been able to successfully train into knights in the Knight Academy. It seems that it is not a problem with the teaching quality of the college, but the reason for the worse and worse student sources.
It seems that it's time to rectify the south, the atmosphere is too comfortable...
However, the forces in the south are complex, and many mage families are already opposed to the military plan. It is indeed a bit troublesome to vigorously rectify and implement the military literacy of the whole people, but they can start with pilot projects starting from some border towns where the military is more inclined.
Morendo, which has just been recovered, is a relatively good pilot. Mrs. Icasio, who is now qualified to temporarily manage there, is just a bauble. Although her child is the only bloodline of the Feren family and the most legal heir, she must have strong support to successfully take over such a large area of territory.
Whether she is truly inclined to the military or to consolidate her power, at least she works very well on the surface and both of her children have entrusted her to herself. It seems that she should be more obedient in a short period of time. Moreover, Moronto is now in a mess and is most suitable as a pilot city for the new policy.
At night, Rox walked outside alone, thinking about these issues while blowing the cool breeze. He had decided to retreat behind the scenes and was sincerely planning to cultivate the next generation of the empire.
After all, the loss this time was really unexpected. For those elite soldiers, the most injured were those high-end combat power. This time, not only did the Fo Xiao Divine Sword be destroyed, but also seven imperial generals fell. I think the northern front would have to remain conservative for a long time.
Replenishment of fresh blood is imminent...
Just as Rox suddenly smelled a scent of fragrance. He was stunned for a moment and subconsciously walked over with the fragrance.
Even for a large inn, it is obviously impossible to solve the diet of tens of thousands of people. Rox never specializes. Like the soldiers around him, he eats dried butter biscuits and hot soup prepared by the inn.
Could it be that Ix and Duke (the general played by the player) could not help but have a small fuss? Rox said in a curious way, but then shook his head again. Among the generals who came this time, they were quite rigid and should not do such a thing. It would be easy to say that the Skull Brokener did it.
Rox walked over as he smelled the fragrance and found that they were two thin young men in cloth clothes, and they were the two whom he had disliked the most before.
When Rox was slightly stunned when he saw these two people, these two guys had persisted until now?
He thought he was left behind in the first wave...
"What are you doing?"
"Oh... Report to the sir, you're having a meal!" the two of them saluted seriously.
Rox looked at the iron bowls in their hands. There was a steaming hot soup inside, but it seemed to taste a little different. If you look closely, there was actually noodles inside...
Rox immediately frowned and said sternly: "Didn't you tell you not to make a fire without permission?"
The kitchens of the inn are strictly prohibited from entering. If you want to cook a bowl of noodles, ordinary soldiers can only make fire outside, but this was strictly prohibited before. Because there are too many people, making fire at will easily cause fire.
"There is no fire-making officer!" Brother Dog hurriedly said: "We can eat this side by soaking it in hot water!"
"Is that?" Rox sneered, "You can take a look at me?"
If you dare to lie to him in person, he will teach these newcomers a good lesson...
Five minutes later...
It's really soft?
Rox touched the side with a knife and fork, which was very elastic and did not seem to be clumping...
"Why don't you try it?" Brother Dog suggested.
Rox was a little moved when hesitated for a while. He finally moved his fork. This was to try whether these two little guys were lying, not because he was greedy...
After comforting himself like this, Rox finally put his mouth down. After sucking in a big mouthful of face with a breath, Rox's eyes suddenly moved!
This taste...
The sweet wheat aroma, the extremely chewy feeling, and the unparalleled topping flavor made him almost swallow his tongue.
"This is...what is this?" Rox said in amazement.
"Uh, instant noodles, our specialty..." Pu Yunchuan said.
"Good thing!" Rox licked his teeth and savored the novel taste just now. This was much better than those ordinary dry foods. Even if you were more than some of the top delicacies in the Empire!
It is also easy to carry, hot soup and quick food, which is simply perfect military rations. I didn’t expect that there is such a good thing on the Moronto border?
"Where does this craft come from?" Rox asked quickly. He planned to include this thing in the Imperial military ration category later. If it is a private industry craft, the Empire will pay a sum of money to buy out the technology.
"The craftsmanship that a pastry chef named Kang, came up with... "Pu Yunchuan said nonsense.
"Okay, give me the address, and then I will apply to the quarrel to talk to the pastry teacher..." Rox said with a smile.
Pu Yunchuan: "........."
