Dehe City.
This is a big city.
It was also one of the first cities to declare independence from the Tian'en Dynasty.
It was for this reason that General Wan chose this city as the first target for Lin Dang's personal expedition.
This city must be taken down with lightning speed.
Establish authority to the people of the world and announce the return of the Tian'en Dynasty.
[Jie, are you writing in your diary again? ]
On the top of Dehe City, an ant in the Golden Light Realm sits on the top of the city wall, holding a particle of information in his hand. This is the ants' diary.
When Jay heard someone calling him, he put down the diary in his hand and stood up.
"Yes, Captain, I've only lived for over thirty years. I don't expect to be remembered forever like King Maya, King Mond, King Tian'en, and the others, but I do want to leave some traces of my presence."
Jay said with some emotion.
[As expected of the general's cousin, his thoughts are much more profound than those of us.]
The captain said happily.
[...Captain, you know that my cousin has nothing to do with me.]
When Jie heard the captain talking about his cousin, a hint of jealousy flashed across his face, but it quickly disappeared.
"That's true. Look at your family. He's Wang Zuo's son. You're clearly related, but why don't you try to establish a relationship? If you were willing to do so, you would be able to walk around Dehe City with impunity. You wouldn't even be my subordinate here."
The captain also said with emotion.
He is very clear about Jay's family situation.
The father of that family was addicted to gambling and died leaving behind a huge gambling debt.
My mother was very stubborn and refused to acknowledge her elder sister, who was the wife of Dang De and Wang Zuo.
She seemed to be forcing Jie, a poor man, to compete with the great general.
The general's name was Ao, the son of Wang Zuo of Dehecheng.
Ao's mother is the elder sister of Jie's mother.
Although the two sisters are biological sisters.
But their fates were completely different.
One of them married Wang Zuo, the most prominent man in Dehe City.
One of them married a farmer who was addicted to gambling.
My sister's child was the center of attention from the moment he was born, and was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
My sister's child was born in obscurity, but was placed with high hopes.
Jie is a very motivated person. He works hard to cultivate himself, treats people kindly, flatters those above him, but never bullies those below him.
Jie often asked his captain about cultivation issues and communicated with him frequently. Sometimes he would use his own salary to buy him some good things and share them with his comrades and subordinates.
If Jay's starting point was the same as Ao's, perhaps Jay could also compete for the position of general.
There is nothing wrong with flattering one's superiors, and it also shows Jay's ambition.
Not bullying those below you is rare, and it also proves Jie's character.
The most important thing is that Jie is a very filial person.
He still remembered that when Jie first became a royal guard, as soon as his salary was paid, Jie went to buy his mother a swift-toothed beast leather coat that she had longed for.
That was a very expensive piece of clothing. Even with the salary of the captain of his personal guard, it would take him a long time to buy it.
But Jay bought it for his mother without hesitation.
According to Jay, this way, his mother can be proud of him.
But Jay has always had a pain point, he doesn't want others to mention Ao in front of him.
Not to mention, he is Ao's cousin.
The man who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth was so dazzling that it overshadowed Jay's efforts.
When others see Jie, the first thing they think of is not the king's personal guard or someone's child.
But he is Ao's cousin.
Jie has worked hard for most of his life just to become his mother's pride. With his poor body, he tried to catch up with Ao's rich starting point.
But it is obvious that he is not the King of Mondstadt back then. His counterattack from a pimple beast farmer to the king was the result of his hard work for most of his life. The iron rice bowl and the king's personal guard in the eyes of the world were just the starting point for Ao.
"Everyone has their own choices, Captain. My mother chose my father back then, so that's my fate. I can only work hard to climb up."
"Captain, today is the day the royal city pays its salaries. Shall we go to a tavern in the city and have some fun? I just found a new tavern. There's a beautiful girl there. I'll treat you."
Jay put a hand on the captain's shoulder and said with a grin.
Obviously, going to the tavern to have fun is the only way for these Golden Light Guards to have fun.
Their wine is made with crude craftsmanship and contains many impurities.
But the best thing is that it tastes good, it has a pure fruit flavor with a little bit of alcohol.
There is no bitter taste like modern distilled spirits.
[Come on, I'm so embarrassed about this. Every time you go to the bar, you just watch us having fun. You never even touch the girls. Tell me, you pay to watch us having fun, how can we have peace of mind?]
The captain punched Jay lightly and said.
Jie often used his salary to curry favor with him and his comrades, and the most common thing was to go to the pub to drink and play with girls.
But Jay just watched them play and never ordered a girl for himself to join them in their debauchery.
This made them not have enough fun and they always felt sorry for Jay.
[Captain, you know I already have a crush on a woman. I've loved her for many years, and I don't want to...]
Before Jay could finish his words, the captain waved his hand.
We know you're ambitious and elegant, but you should know that the girl you like is no longer with you. She's already become the wife of a general. It's not very kind of you to still be thinking about her.
"This time we're at the tavern, I'll treat you. Since you said you think the girl in the tavern is pretty, then as the captain, I'll redeem her and make her your wife. It'll also be a way to leave a child for your family. After all, we're the king's personal guards. Who knows if war breaks out one day and we're all dead. If you don't leave a child, it would be unfilial. How can you be the pride of your mother?"
The captain seemed to be blaming Jay, but his words and actions showed that he was considering Jay.
As an old friend for many years, and Jay often gave him things, he naturally regarded Jay as his confidant in the team.
After two years, he was promoted to team leader, and he also planned to transfer Jie to the position of squad leader.
We can't let all of Jay's efforts over the years go to waste.
[...Captain, you may be right, but... there are enemies!]
Before Jie could finish his words, tens of thousands of troops suddenly flew over from the other side of the city.
The tens of thousands of troops came on the clouds and looked down at them on the city walls, like heavenly soldiers.
The army's flags were fluttering, and the totems of Tian'en Royal City were embroidered on the silk.
Obviously, it was Master Tianen.
[Prepare to defend against the enemy!!! Set up a no-fly zone, and make them roll down!]
On the top of the city wall, the general's mixed thoughts and pheromones were transmitted crazily.
The Mayan civilization developed over so many years.
They already had ways to deal with flying enemies.
That is the forbidden air formation.
As the no-fly magic circle was activated, the clouds that covered the sky began to dissipate.
