Lars' prestige among the people was so high that as soon as the butler's notice was posted, there were already more than a hundred poor people queuing outside.
No wonder the king was worried about Lars. If he had rebellious thoughts, and if he had a private army, the king might not be able to control him at all.
Not only these civilians signed up, but even the students of Imperial College. After these students saw the notice posted by the butler, they went back to school to ask the teacher for leave. The teachers must have asked the reason when they saw so many students asking for leave. After these students hesitated to tell the reason, After discussing with the dean and principal, these teachers of Imperial College happily agreed to their leave of absence, and explained that as long as they can accompany Lord Lars to go back and forth, all the grades of all subjects this semester will be paid. It counts as 70 points.
As soon as the college's attitude was revealed, the students who signed up became more active. There were only a few girls left in the military academy's class, and it was because the Duke stated in the notice that only boys were allowed.
In the end, the number of applicants far exceeded the number that Lars needed. He carefully read the list presented by the butler from the beginning to the end. Among them, there were a total of 727 students from Imperial College, and the number of students recruited by the college every year There are only more than a thousand people, and with so many students running out all at once, isn't the school afraid of pornography
But these students are much better than commoners after all. First of all, students who can enter the Imperial College will have no problem with their status, and the second is that these students are much easier to manage than others.
Lars took the list to the butler and said, "Leave all the students of the Imperial College, let the others go to the abandoned training ground to the west tomorrow, and I'll go and pick it out."
"Yes, my lord."
This military training ground has been abandoned for more than ten years. Most of the high platform built of wood in front has been damaged by the storm, and other training tools are gone, but these don't matter, anyway, Lars It's not about training soldiers for the battlefield. The biggest advantage of this abandoned military training ground is that the place is empty, and the area covered is enough for the thousand people in front of us to use their hands and feet.
When Lars came over, these people had already been organized and lined up to stand obediently, but the formation of these people does not mean that these people can also maintain military discipline like those soldiers in the army. After all, these people may not even have military discipline. clear. They whispered to each other, pulling left and right and occasionally laughed a lot, and their standing postures were quite casual, with all kinds of things. Some people might even be tired of waiting, so they just squatted with their arms drooping. on the ground.
Lars walked to the front of the team, his eyes swept over the faces of these people one by one, and finally said: "Quiet."
His voice was not loud, and it didn't contain any anger, but when these people heard it, they still couldn't help being shocked. They stopped making a sound in an instant, and stood upright in their positions one by one, with their eyes wandering around. Then, no one dared to look directly at Lars.
Lars pursed his lips. He walked from the front of the line to the end of the line, walking slowly, and looked at everyone carefully. Finally, he saw Oledo at the end, and The other slaves.
It may be because he thought that the young man in front of him was also under his command. Although he violated the military law and left the army, Lars would still miss his glorious years in the army when he saw him. He nodded , Said: "Not bad."

Hearing Lars' praise, Oledo's eyes lit up, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up, and his waist straightened instantly.
However, Lars had already turned around and left at this time. He quickly walked to the front of the team, and said to the people in front of him: "I still need to choose 237 people from among you, because the journey is far away, and at least three people will be needed." It will take several months to come back, and if any of you have family members who care about you, you can leave now."
As soon as Lars finished speaking, the people in front of him looked at me and I looked at you, and finally a small number of people actually left. Lars also understood this very well. The Pope's birthday is in early October, and it will take more than three months to go back and forth. If there is any accident, the time may be prolonged.
Lars was not in a hurry to choose among these people. It was the beginning of July, and there was still time. He could definitely train these people a little before making a selection.
So in the next month, Lars would go to the training ground every day. Some people felt that it was too hard and retreated, but most of them stayed.
Oledo held the gun in his hand and trained with everyone, but his mind was not on it. His eyes were slyly looking at Lars. It was hot summer and the sun was shining. Lars was wearing a A black tight knight suit with simple but delicate golden patterns printed on it, the golden buttons are still fastened to the top one, he is patrolling the entire training ground, his boots are on the ground There was a rattling sound, his footsteps were getting closer and closer, Oledo withdrew his gaze, and immediately pretended to be concentrating on training, but there were various ulterior thoughts hidden in his heart.
In mid-August, Lars had probably picked out those 200 people, and of course Oledo was among them.
When leaving, the king came over to see Duke Lars off in person. He pretended to be reluctant to say goodbye, held the Duke's hand, and said a lot of nasty things to the Duke.
Lars thanked him coldly, as if he hadn't heard the king's words at all.
Standing on the high platform, the king watched Lars' corps guarding the pope's birthday ceremony and gradually disappeared from his sight. He lowered his head and touched the sword pinned to his waist. He turned around and looked at the huge building on the other side of the imperial capital. He snorted, "Lars is amazing."
He really didn't expect Lars to use such a trick to gather together the guard corps, but the risk of him doing so was too great. If it wasn't for the group of students from the Imperial College who went in to make up the numbers, they would only have to find them from the people. There are a bunch of people coming out, maybe something will happen during the escort.
Lars's bones are now crippled, and he is no longer a great swordsman. If something happens to him, he will definitely not be able to support it alone.
The king's eyes rolled twice, and he secretly sent a team of people to follow. These people can not only probe out how many secrets Lars still has that he doesn't know, but also protect the Pope's birthday ceremony and arrive successfully. Vigsha.
The pope's birthday gift was guarded in the center of the army. Lars did not ride a horse because of his health, but sat in the carriage all the time.
When it was time to camp and rest at night, the students of the Imperial College formed their own group and organized themselves to discuss military matters, while the remaining two hundred or so gathered together in groups of four or five, where they chatted about their parents.
Oledo really couldn't get in with these people. His eyes kept staring at the tent where Lars was, expecting the person inside to come out.
Lars did come out later, but he was called out by the students of the Imperial College. These students can also be regarded as his juniors. He always treats these children with a little soft-heartedness. He was surrounded by students in the center, telling them about his time in the army, and chatting with them about military knowledge by the way, he seldom laughed, but he laughed many times tonight, with crooked eyebrows and eyes. Under the reflection of the bonfire, the sparkle in the eyes is so beautiful that it is confusing.
Oledo watched engrossedly, he dropped the branch holding the fire in his hand, stood up and walked towards Lars.
The person on the side grabbed him and asked, "What are you doing?"
"I'll go over there and have a look," Oledo replied.
The man laughed when he heard Oledo's words. Their identities are completely different from those of the students. Is there something wrong with the man in front of him? The strength in his hand has increased a little bit. Say more: "Everyone is a student of Imperial College, what did you do in the past? What is your identity?"
Oledo lowered his eyes and replied, "I am a slave of Duke Lars."
As soon as Oledo said this, the people around him burst into laughter: "Hahahahaha... so he is a slave! Don't be ashamed!"
Oledo didn't pay attention to these people anymore, he walked straight to Lars, where more than 700 students were sitting on the ground obediently, listening to Lars' discussion. Lars' voice was very pleasant, deep and magnetic. Fortunately, there were no little girls here, otherwise he would have been bewildered by him.
Fortunately, there is the pope here who made an order to burn homosexuals to death, otherwise he would attract many little boys with his appearance. Oledo squinted his eyes, thinking that the setting in this world is not too bad.
Oledo walked over, he stopped in front of Lars, knelt at his feet, and called softly, "Master."
"Oledo?" Lars looked down at the young man at his feet, as if a little surprised. He couldn't figure out why Oledo came here at this time.
"Yes, master." Hearing Lars call his name, Oledo immediately raised his head, with a joyful expression on his face.
Lars asked: "You want to hear me say this too?"
Oledo nodded.
Lars didn't mind having an extra person, he said to Oledo, "Then you stay here and listen."
Oledo climbed to the spot directly in front of Lars and sat down. Because of his utterance of master just now, the students immediately knew his status as a slave. When they saw him sitting over, they moved aside uncomfortably. At one point, try to avoid him. Oledo originally thought it was crowded here, but now that these students are willing to give him some space, he naturally wishes for it. As for the others, he will not bother.
Lars also knew that most of these students looked down on slaves, but this was normal, and there was nothing to blame.
Lars continued to talk to these students, and when he was talking about the key point, he suddenly stopped and said to these students: "Someone is here." (83 Chinese.83.)
