Chapter 145 Little Luosha
Gray Space is hiring, Philip’s automatic washing machine.
On this day, the Gray Army Station was extremely lively because of these two things. Of course, when it comes to attractiveness, the latter is undoubtedly greater. This is almost a conceptual subversion!
Clothes, of course, must be washed by hand. This has been the consensus of people in other worlds for thousands of years. But now after seeing this washing machine that automatically spins to remove dirt from clothes, this consensus has been broken.
This is an epoch-making alchemical item - this is the external evaluation that Philip relayed to Tang En.
According to Philip, this was the only washing machine he bought at an auction house in Brandu City. Later, business groups continued to bring this thing over, and soon almost all wealthy people in the city had one like this. The difference is that the cheaper version used by the public is not as refined in appearance and does not have the dehydration function. The noble ones are made of precious materials and can be dehydrated quickly.
This washing machine almost became synonymous with fashion during that time. If any noble family did not have one, they would be embarrassed to attend the party, because all the conversations there were about this thing.
So soon, the origin of this washing machine was also revealed. It is said that it was invented by a business group called Yatang in a small town in the south. Because of this, the business group quickly accumulated wealth and became one of the well-known business groups in the country.
The liveliness of the station certainly alarmed Luo Sha and the others who had just walked out of the tent. Everyone was amazed at this thing. Phillip got his wish and got the thanks from Josiah. Because of this, the former was in a state of madness almost all afternoon.
That arrogant look made David and the others wonder if they should find a time to put this guy in a sack and take him to a remote corner for a slap in the face in order to cool down... The people in the Gray Army were not so quick to get excited about washing machines. In the past few days, almost all the talk in the station was about this topic. Until one day at noon, the washing machine made an abnormal screeching sound, and then stopped spinning completely.
The aunt who was using it was frightened by the movement. Philip, who came later, checked it briefly and reluctantly announced that the washing machine was broken.
Of course, the washing machine will not be damaged so easily, not to mention that Philip is a high-end product. But no matter how advanced it is, it cannot withstand endless use. You must know that in the past few days, the people of the Gray Army have almost never stopped the washing machine from spinning.
Amid everyone's lamentations, the washing machine was towed away by a carriage called by Philip. It was said that this high-end product had several opportunities to be repaired for free.
In these quiet few days, the Gray Space team completed the elimination of personnel and officially included thirty team members. Then Tang En carried out training non-stop, pulling the thirty people into the wilderness outside the station, so the people of the Gray Army could always hear the piercing screams coming from a distance from time to time. Needless to say, Tang En's image Being blackmailed again... Luosha and the others were also negotiating with difficulty. Food and the like were easy to confirm, and cotton wool and cloth were easy to negotiate, but the armor weapons were very sensitive, so the process was extremely slow.
But all this cannot stop the emergence of a new topic, that is, Josiah and Borg.
At first, it seemed that someone overheard those old nobles muttering that without these two people, the loss in this negotiation would have been reduced by at least half. After the rumors gradually spread, the reduced loss became half, and then became more than half... The rumors became more and more exaggerated. The names of Josiah and Borg were in the hearts of the Gray Army people. His status is getting higher and higher.
In the end, it seemed that this negotiation was a confrontation between Josiah, Borg and the old nobles. Of course that was not the case, but Luo Sha and the others were silent. Even Luo Sha was still praising Joshua and the two while chatting with others.
After that, as if there was an invisible big hand controlling it, the rumors about the two people became more and more numerous. The highlights of any negotiation were quickly spread and then magnified... The two stars in gray clothes, I don’t know who was the first to call, But it soon spread by word of mouth among the people.
Among them, Josiah has the most praise, and her rumors are also the most widespread. What about forcefully interrupting the opponent's delay, sharply pointing out the flaws in traps, etc. Coupled with her original good image, it didn't take long for Josiah to have a separate title-Little Losa!
Luo Sha has the highest status in the hearts of the people of the Gray Army. Whether it was his brave stand when the Gray Army was on the verge of disbandment, or his subsequent successful breakthroughs in every encirclement and suppression... this made everyone have a clear understanding. The Gray Army can do without anyone, but it cannot do without Luo Sha!
Now that Josiah has been given the title of "Little Losa", it is undoubtedly a high praise and honor.
It can be said that as the negotiation time continues to lengthen, the reputations of both Joshua and Joshua are gradually growing.
However, Josiah, the client, didn't feel anything. She was worried about the progress of negotiations on armor weapons and military equipment all day long. She had no time or energy to pay attention to these things. She only occasionally wondered why everyone looked at her more and more strangely... Qiao Xiao Shia once took the time to ask Tang En, but Tang En didn't have any good ideas about this. These armaments were taboo, even when nobles raised private soldiers, they were secretive about them.
However, the stalemate between the two sides did not last long, and was quickly resolved perfectly due to the small concessions made by the noble negotiating team. This was of course not because the other party could not withstand the pressure, but because a man came to the legion camp... At night, there was a large military tent in the legion camp.
The three famous generals, Ralph, Barlow, and Gary, gathered together once again.
"General Gary, how was today's negotiation?" Barlow asked lazily as soon as he came in and sat down.
The three generals took turns taking the old nobles to the Gray Army's garrison every day, and today it was Gary's turn. They have no right to participate in negotiations. They simply bring people over every day, and then sit in silence and watch the two sides bickering.
"It's still the same!" Gary's eyelids were drooped and his tone was calm. However, because he was born with a gloomy face, he seemed to be saying this with a gloomy face. "Those gray-clothed soldiers are so brave that they dare to ask for so many weapons. equipment."
"What can we do? After all, they have hostages in hand." Barlow changed his posture and reclined on the seat, looking very lethargic. "I've had enough of this life. I feel like my bones are going to rust. .”
Ralph and Gary both nodded upon hearing this, seeming to agree with Barlow's words.
Originally, they were all elite troops of their respective legions, and they were on the border. Due to small groups of sneak attacks by the Northern Wilderness barbarians from time to time, there were battles almost every day. But now that he has been reduced to such an embarrassing situation, his life is naturally very boring.
"By the way, have you noticed that there is a small team of Gray Army soldiers who often train in the field recently." After a moment of silence, Barlow suddenly said.
Gary frowned: "They must be the group of people who run outside the camp every morning."
"Yes, it's them!" Barlow nodded, leaned forward, and finally showed some vitality, "Don't tell me, I just observed them a little, and their daily training is quite interesting."
These people are all battlefield warriors and naturally have great eyesight. Even though he couldn't fully understand Tang En's tactics, he still felt keenly that the opponent's training was somewhat skillful.
"They are very powerful!" Ralph commented with great care.
Barlow nodded: "Of course, after all, they caught those noble boys and forced their way through our tens of thousands of soldiers."
"That's not it!" Ralph shook his head.
"Huh?" Barlow and Gary turned their heads at the same time and looked at Ralph in confusion. The latter fell into silence at this time, seeming to consider what to say.
This facial paralysis... Barlow and the other two couldn't help but cursed and turned their attention to the lieutenant behind Ralph.
"Ahem, that's it." The middle-aged deputy general saluted briefly and continued, "When our regiment's scouts were doing a routine inspection of the surrounding area, they discovered a small team of gray-clothed soldiers climbing the southern mountain wall with their bare hands. . Well, it’s like a competition, there are about five people in a group, and the height of the climb is about 100 meters!”
"The south mountain wall...can be climbed?" Barlow and Gary were shocked. Of course they knew what was going on there. It could be said that the mountain wall went straight up and down like a mirror. The difficulty of climbing up here is self-evident.
"According to the scout's report, he saw a person doing a demonstration and climbed up in a very short time. Well, he didn't use fighting spirit or any lifting method. He just leaned on the slightly protruding mountains. Place, climb up step by step.”
"This..." Barlow and Gary looked at each other, and then the former said, "They should be training scouts, so they are from the Gray Army Scout Team?"
The middle-aged deputy general shook his head: "Not only that, our scouts also discovered that there are some human-shaped targets at that height. After they climb to that height, they not only need to stabilize their bodies, but also need to stab the targets quickly. One knife!"
"Uh..." Barlow touched his chin, "If you put it this way, this is like a raiding party. But can such a small number of people form a fighting force?"
As expected of a general, Barlow saw the problem at a glance. In military operations, sending troops to attack is a normal tactic. Each legion has light cavalry and other units specially used for this purpose. But without exception, these teams are all organized into groups, and they must at least have the size of a large team in order to achieve the effect. If there are only a few dozen people, even if the attack is successful, what is the difference between fighting and being stuck?
"Yes!" Ralph suddenly said, "They captured the hostages."
Barlow was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "This is an accident, eh..."
Having said this, Barlow suddenly frowned, "General Relf said that this group of people is specially used to appear at key places in the battle and then deliver a fatal blow. Well, for example, to assassinate the general?"
Ralph nodded slightly.
"This... this is a bit taken for granted. When will assassins be able to go to the battlefield?" Barlow chuckled a little, and Gary on the side also curled his lips in disapproval.
It's no wonder that the two men looked a little frivolous. In their minds, or basically all the leading generals, war is about two armies confronting each other. Under this general trend, small local fluctuations caused by a certain person. It can be sudden, just like when did you see an ant kill an elephant?
Ralph didn't refute, keeping silent as usual.
"What happened next? What did that group of people do next?" Barlow asked with interest.
"Ahem..." The middle-aged deputy general looked a little embarrassed: "Later, our scouts were discovered and driven away."
"..."
Baloyugeli opened his mouth wide and his eyes widened: "What?"
Of course they knew the combat effectiveness of the Zichen Legion's scouts, which were at the top of all legions. It was shocking enough to be discovered while lurking, and to be driven away... Although the deputy general said it in an understatement, both of them could think of that time. What happened? The scouts of the Zichen Legion were certainly not weaklings. The two sides must have fought against each other, and the result was that the Zichen Legion was defeated... "Huh..." Barlow came back to his senses and sighed. "Don't underestimate the Gray Army. It's really difficult to eliminate them under the same conditions."
Gary was somewhat touched when he heard the words, and was about to nod when he suddenly said, "Haha, the Gray Army cannot be wiped out by the army." A slightly hoarse magnetic voice came from outside the tent.
At this time, both Ralph and the deputy general looked stunned, as if they couldn't believe it.
The door curtain moved slightly, and a purple figure walked in.
"marshal!"
"Marshal Ziyi!"
... Several people in the tent screamed, then hurriedly stood up and performed the most standard military salute.
"Haha, don't mobilize troops like this. In fact, I came with bad news. Well, yesterday, the Northern Wilderness tribe officially attacked the border!"
