"So it's here," Ling Cang jumped three feet high in excitement after finally finding the information he needed.
In a book about British history, there is such a record, to the effect that the British nobility is different from the nobility of other countries and is eternal. In other words, as long as you become a nobility, your descendants will always be nobility. There is a Chinese saying As the saying goes, "One emperor, one courtier", this is not the case in England. After a new dynasty is established, the nobles of the previous dynasty will not be deposed and will still retain their status.
Due to historical reasons, some nobles also enjoy privileges. The example cited in the book is the Newcastle family. In recognition of the family's contribution, the British royal family once granted unique favors and allowed them to have their own army.
In history, this family has established a lot of military exploits for Britain, so it has been promoted in the title, and finally became a duke. In its heyday, the family was also married to the British royal family, which means that it is related to the current Queen of England.
As a result, many legends have been born around this family, but most of them are mythical and untrue and can be easily falsified. However, there is an interesting saying, which claims that the family has been blessed by mysterious power. That's why he was able to achieve his current status through military service.
As for that army, it is not a legend, let alone a fabrication in the book, but has been confirmed by a lot of information. For example, some other historical materials once mentioned the Newcastle family army when describing Britain's foreign wars.
The size of this army is about 10,000, and it is only loyal to the Newcastle family. Its members are well treated, but the selection conditions are extremely harsh. Even during the two world wars, the British implemented a universal compulsory military service system. Accept the command of the British state and only obey the orders of the Newcastle family.
There are only these records in the book. As for the historical inheritance and current situation of the Newcastle family, there is no mention of it. Ling Cang has not found any relevant information either from other books or on the Internet.
In today's world, an army with a total of 10,000 people is not too much, but it is still a lot. More importantly, the nature of this army is a private army, and the vast majority of private armies are in the The underground state is even illegal at all. Even though Delta is half open and half underground, the open part still appears as a mercenary.
The Newcastle army is not a mercenary, but it is openly allowed to exist by a developed sovereign country. This is an extremely rare thing in the entire history of the world. What is the equipment of this army, where is it usually stationed, and what is its strategic mission? , where the Newcastle family obtained the funds to support this army is something Ling Cang really wants to know.
However, relevant information is difficult to obtain.
There are too many surprising secrets in this world, such as wealth. People like Bill Gates only put it on the table. Organizations and families such as the Freemasons, Rothschilds, Delta, etc. actually have wealth. Far surpassing the list of richest people in the world.
Since grandfather and father were able to build a huge economic empire, the Newcastle family may also have the same ability. As for the family itself and its military situation, it must involve too many secrets and cannot be disclosed to the outside world.
Ling Cang didn't expect to know too much. No matter whether Lisa was from the Newcastle family or not, there was no harm in knowing that such a force existed in the world. No one knew whether Ling Cang would deal with these people in the future. There is no way of knowing whether they are enemies or friends.
Having found the information, Ling Cang put away all the books. Just when he was about to take a rest, there was a knock on the door. It was Leite and others.
"Boss..." Leiter pointed to a person next to him and said with a smile on his face: "I will introduce you to a new person."
This man's name is Leng Yu, he is of medium build and looks quite polite. Like the others, he also took advantage of the chaos in the management of the Delta Special Forces Brigade to sneak out and want to join Ling Yang's son. Because he had a previous relationship with Ling Yang, Lei Te contacted me, so after arriving in Minghai, I came directly to No. 1 Middle School.
He is a bit similar to Bing Ling, with a arrogant look on his face. Interestingly, he also has the same ability as Bing Ling, that is, he can manipulate ice.
When greeting people, Ling Cang seemed a little dull, but he was actually good at recognizing people. After just a few casual chats with Leng Yu, Ling Cang discovered that the nature of this person was actually different from Bing Ling.
Bing Ling not only looks aloof, but is actually unsociable, while Leng Yu is cold on the outside and hot on the inside. On the surface, he is reluctant to talk, but he is very enthusiastic towards others.
It can be said that these people in the Delta Special Forces Brigade are like a group of flowers, each with their own personalities, and they are very strong.
Ling Cang heard from Long Jianyue that although the Hundred Flowers Group had dominated the supernatural world for many years, daily management was difficult. Ling Cang wanted to know how Sima Tian led the Delta Special Forces Brigade in the first place.
Of course, Lei Te and others may not understand this, because they are all young and do not have a deep impression of Sima Tian. After meeting Ling Cang, they never mentioned that there was such a boss in the special brigade.
"Okay..." Ling Cang looked at his watch and found that it was time for Zhang Yiting to leave the food stall, so he told everyone: "Come with me to show your sister-in-law the place."
"Someone dares to seduce my sister-in-law..." Bing Ling slowly raised his hand, and saw a white mist rising gradually, and finally condensed into a sharp ice cone: "I will let him die without a burial place,"
"Absolutely not," Ling Cang shook his head: "Recently, reporters have focused on the east wall. If we cause something, we don't know what it will look like when reporters write about it. So, we'd better be cautious. Some, just keep that bitch away from your sister-in-law,"
"We should keep a low profile," Leng Yu nodded thoughtfully: "However, I'm worried that it's not us who cause trouble, but things that provoke us."
"I will not offend anyone unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will dig up his ancestral graves."
Everyone was on the road soon. When passing the stadium, Ling Cang found that the scene was very lively.
There are no activities in the club today. Some members came to the gym to play by themselves. Jin Zhiren is teaching everyone how to split wooden boards.
Although these moves in Taekwondo have no practical significance, they are quite fun to play, so everyone learns them with gusto. Of course, in the eyes of superpowers, it is not worth it to split wooden boards that are only a few inches thick with your hands. Mention.
Lisa had just split two wooden boards, happened to see Ling Cang, and immediately greeted: "President, President,"
Ling Cang walked over expressionlessly: "What are you doing?"
"Can you try it too and see how many pieces you can split?" Lisa was wearing a pair of three-quarter denim shorts, a pair of black pantyhose, a pair of black sneakers, and a white long-sleeved T-shirt. T-shirt, golden hair tied up high, looking very cute: "Come on, let's give it a try,"
Ling Cang glanced at Jin Zhiren and found that his expression was a bit awkward.
Every man wants to act as a hero in front of women. Jin Zhiren showed off his skills just now, which made many girls cheer. But he knew that Ling Cang was so powerful that it was not a problem to split dozens of boards at a time, which could make him lose face.
Ling Cang saw Jin Zhiren's concerns and shook his head with a smile: "I don't know how."
"But you are the president..." Lisa sighed softly, her blue eyes lowered: "If you don't come out and show your shame, everyone will be very disappointed..."
"Xian...ugly," Ling Cang always felt that Lisa's Chinese level was about to catch up with the authentic Chinese people, even much better than Huang Xianli and others. But after Ling Cang heard this sentence, he found that Lisa There is still room for improvement in Sa's Chinese proficiency: "Miss Newcastle, you seem to have used the wrong word,"
"Don't call me Miss Newcastle. Just call me Lisa. We are all friends and there is no need to be so polite."
"Speak... etiquette..." Ling Cang's face was filled with black lines due to Lisa's wording: "Although this is not a reasonable society, as the future flowers of our motherland, we should still be more reasonable."
"The president has said so, so don't be embarrassed," Jin Zhiren hurriedly came over and excused Ling Cang: "Lisa, you learn everything very quickly, so why don't you show your skills to everyone?"
"Is this..." Lisa thought for a moment, then smiled triumphantly: "Then I won't show off my ability, Luban is showing off in front of the door,"
Lisa has a very lively personality, always jumping up and down, and is lovable. However, although her Chinese is very good, it is limited to written language. Not only is she unclear about many allusions, but she is also unfamiliar with spoken language.
Maybe it was because everyone always praised her for her good Chinese skills, so Lisa deliberately showed off and made a lot of jokes. However, after she practiced a few moves, no one present could laugh.
Lisa rolled up her sleeves, then stacked ten boards on top of each other, ready to chop them.
Jin Zhiren hurriedly came over and dissuaded him: "This is too much,"
"It's okay," Lisa smiled confidently and raised her palm to chop the wooden board.
There was only a crisp sound of "click", and the wooden board was suddenly cut into two parts. Then he looked at Lisa, who looked calm and unfazed, not caring at all: "How about it, I'm awesome, right?"
Jin Zhiren was stunned on the spot, and the others were silent. Even Ling Cang glanced meaningfully at Lei Te and others.
Ten wooden boards are nothing to a person with super powers, but they are quite challenging for ordinary people. What is particularly important is that the broken surface of the wooden boards is smooth and flat, as if cut with a knife, and it is not ordinary. People can do it.
However, even at the moment Lisa took action, Ling Cang did not feel any fluctuations in power, indicating that Lisa was indeed just an ordinary person. Of course, it is also possible that her level had exceeded everyone's imagination and she could exert herself at will even if she was hidden. strength, but Ling Cang thinks this is unlikely.
"You are indeed amazing," Ling Cang nodded, and then told Leite and others: "Let's go,"
