Chapter 671: Naval Battle (Part 1)
November 3rd is a very ordinary day for most people on this continent.
But for the people of the Derbyt Kingdom, this was an extraordinary day.
November 3rd is the day when the founding of the Kingdom of Debit, a festival unique to the Kingdom of Debit, and the autumn harvest festival of other kingdoms, but it is not held immediately after the autumn harvest.
It will be held later.
On this day, the entire Kingdom of Derby will be trapped in an atmosphere of warm congratulations.
In addition to the necessary military defense, other functional agencies will have a day off!
On this day, the coastal areas of the Derbyt Kingdom also began to celebrate this festival.
Starting from the morning, various celebrations will be lively on the streets and will not end until late at night.
Except for the guards and patrol soldiers, they all went home to celebrate the festival.
This is how it is done every year, and this unfair treatment will inevitably not make the garrison personnel dissatisfied.
In the Derbyt Kingdom, there is a coastal territory, which not only has ports, but also a passage to the inland areas. Most of the navy of the Derbyt Kingdom are stationed here.
Because they shoulder the task of defending, it is impossible for them to live as leisurely as others, even during this festival where the whole country celebrates.
"Captain, go out? Bring us some food by the way!"
Today, when I was on duty at the coastal post, there happened to be a captain of a patrol ship. It was already dark. After the night was late, there was no food to make up. The night was really sad. The other soldiers looked at him with some expectations, and the captain stood up and said he was going out.
He said he wanted to go out, and his team of soldiers asked him to bring some food back.
It is only a captain like him who dares to steal it for a while while on duty, but ordinary soldiers dare not.
While walking out, the captain waved his hand back a few times: "Don't worry, when did I, Citin, have you forgotten?"
"Hehe, the captain is the best!"
"Thank you, Captain!"
In the Kingdom of Derbyt, the treatment of soldiers at each level is much different.
For example, Siding, who was walking outward, had a salary of more than the soldiers combined, and sometimes when he went out to buy some food, he would just bring some with him, and he wouldn't care too much about these small money.
After leaving the checkpoint, Siding first went to the street market. The lively scene made him feel a little stunning.
"As such festivals, people like us can't bear to see them." As he muttered, Xiding squeezed through the crowd and walked out of the main street. He first spent a few copper coins, bought some meat from the meat stall, and then went to the grocery store to buy some fruit wine. Then he followed the road and walked westward. As soon as he turned, he went straight into a street next to him.
There was only a young woman living in the last family on the street. At this time, she had just washed her clothes and was hanging them in the yard.
Suddenly I heard someone knocking on the door outside, so I hurried to the door and asked softly: "Who?"
"Dinah, it's me, I'm Siding." There was a response outside soon.
"Why are you so late today?" The young woman showed a happy expression on her face, and she quickly opened the door and welcomed Siding in.
"Don't mention it. I originally wanted to come here early, but a chief checked the post once, and I endured it until they all came home. Then I came out. See what I brought you, meat and wine, have you had supper?" Xiding said with a smile. It was not until this time that he noticed that the lover who had changed into holiday clothes was particularly beautiful today.
He couldn't help but exclaim: "Dinah, you are so beautiful."
Dinah's face turned slightly red. "For me, I'll cook for you."
As he said that, he took the meat and fruit wine from Sidin and blushed into the kitchen.
Xiding often came here, went straight into the room, and sat in the living room and waited.
"It's ready, let's eat together." After a while, Dinah walked in from outside with a tray.
Put down the tray, take off a few stacks of dishes from above, and then put the warm fruit wine.
"Today, you shouldn't drink anymore, why not drink less?" Suddenly, I thought that today was the day on duty, Dinah hesitated and wanted to take the wine back.
"No, I'll just drink this, just drink a little, just drink a little!" Seeing this, Siding hurriedly snatched the wine pot.
"Siting, is there really nothing wrong?" Sidding across from Siting, Dinah suddenly said, "For some reason, I suddenly felt a little uneasy, and I always felt that something was going to happen!"
"Haha, now the devil disaster has all ended. The nearby pirates have not appeared for a long time. I'm afraid they've run away long ago. What can happen in this situation?" Sidding filled himself with a glass of wine and started drinking. "I'll have to go back later. Don't mention these annoying things now. You said that I finally took the time to come and have dinner with you. Why are you not happy at all? If this happens, I won't come in the future."
"You dare!" Dinah raised her eyes.
"Isn't that all? Come and have a meal." Sidine said with a smile.
I ate this meal for half an hour. Seeing that it was getting late, Citin kissed Dinah goodbye, and then went out and went back along the way.
In order not to let his subordinates report it, Xiding bought some cooked food when he went back, carried them, and hurried back.
Because he was worried that he would be caught by the superior, even though various celebrations on the street were still in full swing, he had no time to watch them.
"It's considered back." I walked slowly and finally walked to the road leading to the port.
Siddin raised his head, looked at the vaguely visible sign from afar, and breathed a sigh of relief.
But then, his eyes suddenly widened!
"What's going on?" I saw a large area of ​​black shadows that could not be counted on the sea under the moonlight were approaching here.
But the few patrol ships floating on the sea had no movement at all.
"This group of idiots! They must be gambling again!" This thought flashed through Siding's mind.
As a veteran with a lot of experience, he had discovered an abnormality and was about to turn around and notify the naval soldiers resting in the camp next to him. Who knew that just a few steps away, a battle began.
When the patrol ship approached, it realized something strange. Suddenly, the sound of killing shook the sky. Xiding looked at him in amazement. Small boats were smashed and larger ships were approaching the sea battle.
When Nick got home, it was already noon. As soon as he entered the door, his son ran over and hugged his legs, insisting that he play with him.
"Be good, when my father is not busy, I will take you to play with you, okay?" Nick had a lot of things in the office and was about to leave after dinner. Seeing his son entangled him, he had no choice but to speak casually.
"My father never remembers his words. I don't care. I want my father to play with me." Nick's son looked like he was only three or four years old, and he was talking noisily.
"Obe obedient." Nick took out his father's majesty.
Seeing that his father seemed really angry, the little guy had to sigh and left like an adult.
Looking at his son's depressed back, Nick was also a little depressed.
"This kid is really..."
"He likes you!" Nick's wife said with a smile.
Nick and his wife have always had a good relationship. Although his wife had a marriage history, Nick didn't care. Even when the goddess of marriage and love announced that she could be a three-wife, Nick still kept a wife and never remarried.
When others asked him, he just joked that it would cost too much to marry a wife and would be expensive in the future. It would be not cost-effective to calculate it in two ways.
Although that's the case, it's enough to see Nick's feelings for his wife from this point.
"I have prepared Chinese food for you." In the restaurant, the food was brought up as ordered.
Nick smiled gentlely at his wife and started eating.
"Come some fruit wine?" asked the wife.
Nick shook his head: "No, you have to sort out your financial statements in the afternoon. Drinking will make your mind unconscious."
While eating, the butler of Nick's house ran in from outside.
"Sir! Sir!"
"What's wrong?" Nick asked with a frown, frowning.
Usually, at this time, the butler doesn't disturb him. Now, it is obvious that something major has happened.
"The General Office sent someone to find you, saying that there was an urgent matter and I would like to report it to you!" said the butler.
"Okay, tell him, I'll go over right away," Nick said, and he hurriedly took a few bites, put on his coat, and walked out.
"Come on, bring snacks and bring them to the adults later." Seeing that her husband didn't eat much, Nick's wife felt sorry for her husband, so she quickly ordered the servants to prepare snacks.
I got on the carriage and headed towards the General Office. Because I was not far away, I arrived at the place in a short while.
I hurried upstairs and found that there was already a person in my room, which was Faffel.
"Fafell, what happened?" Nick asked hurriedly.
Of course he wouldn't think that Fafell called himself over because he was bored.
"This is the news I just heard, you can see." Fafell's face was not very good, and he handed a secret letter to Nick.
As the letter comes, there are also deciphered contents.
As soon as Nick took it, he knew that the letter was from some chambers of commerce they sent out. When they sent it back, the chambers of commerce in Romon often had the function of obtaining intelligence on the spot.
The text above was all secret words. After a glance at the letter, he picked up the deciphered content and looked at it.
After reading the above content, Nick was also a little stunned: "I suspected that there were elves involved in the naval battle. Did the elves start a war against humanity?"
