Chapter 133 Recruiting Soldiers

"Soldiers! Ha, we are most in need of soldiers!"

Jurgen looked very happy, but soon his face darkened. I guess he had doubts about Andrew and I. He asked, "Where did you serve?"

Where did you serve? Oh, this idiot, isn't he obviously trying to trick us? Only a fool would tell the truth to such a blatant question.

"Well, we were mercenaries, yes, in Great Sequanoren."

"Big Sequanolun?" Jurgen held his chin with his hand. He didn't seem as anxious as he was when he attacked just now. Now he knew our identities were the most important.

The large army passing by was too conspicuous, so he pulled us to a corner where it was not easy for others to see us. It was as if this was a secret that no one could tell, especially his comrades.

He looked outside from time to time, and after making sure that there was no one else around, he turned back and looked at us with an extremely happy expression.

"All right! It's absolutely safe here, gentlemen."

Jurgen stroked his chin and looked at both of us with a twinkle in his eye.

"Mr. Jurgen," I said first. "I don't know what you are thinking. The most important thing is, do I really not know what role our military relationship played in your actions?"

"Obstruction? No, no, no, sir, you are wrong about this!" Jurgen waved his hands at us and continued, "Soldiers, you are soldiers, this is enough!"

"What is enough?" Jurgen's words confused Andrew and me. "Hey, Jurgen, what do you mean?"

"Well, I mean, you two are soldiers, so you must have received very strict training, am I right?" Jurgen's tone was very gentle, and his face was filled with a respectful smile. "If you two are soldiers, it would be a great honor for me."

"You want to hire soldiers?" I couldn't understand Jurgen's reaction. "Soldiers are everywhere. If you are willing to spend money, you can hire a whole army of well-equipped German mercenaries or even retired Roman veterans. Look at these two of us, we are such miserable soldiers, we don't deserve your respectful treatment."

"No, no, no, sir, you can't say that." Jurgen's expression was just like that of a slave with some experience. "Oh, that's really offensive, sir, I don't even know your names." Jurgen said, leaning forward slightly.

"Luga, just call me Luga, and the guy next to me is called Andrew." I introduced myself and Andrew to him, and he nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, respectfully, Mr. Luca and Mr. Andrew." Jurgen changed his words faster than I could have imagined. This guy is really good at talking. He smiled and continued, "I dare to invite you two to join our team and become our instructors. If possible, we can form one or two armies, and it is not impossible for you two to be promoted to generals."

"General!"

Andrew and I almost dropped our jaws to the ground after hearing this. This was really too casual. But from Jurgen's expression, he only smiled slightly, and his face was full of confidence. He didn't seem like a liar, but with such a huge temptation, unless he was a very secretive big shot, he must be a lunatic! I looked at his shabby clothes, his messy hair, and his pathetic background. Really, it's not that I look down on him. Although you can't judge a person by his appearance, I would rather believe that he is a lunatic. What's the difference between this and the scam text message that Sun Yat-sen is still alive thousands of years later? "General? We are generals, then what are you? Army Marshal? Emperor? King? Ha." I really couldn't help but want to mock him. I shook my head, grabbed Andrew and wanted to walk out.

"Hey, you two, wait a minute!"

Jurgen didn't seem to want to let us go so easily, and he hadn't given up trying to persuade us. He held out his hand to stop Andrew and me, and said hurriedly, "You two may not believe me, but I will take you two to find our commander, and then we'll see if you believe me or not."

"Come on, my friend." I was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and said to Andrew behind me, "Let's go." Then I stretched out my right hand, put it on his outstretched arm, and pressed down. Hey, it was really strong. I couldn't move him even with my slight push. I raised my head and saw his determined face.

No matter how determined his expression was, I still wouldn't believe him. After all, they were all born as slaves, and there was no one with a brain in the history of Bagauda. Maybe he was an Oscar-winning actor with a breakthrough acting skill. If I was fooled by this expression, who would I go to for justice? Thinking of this, I became more determined not to believe him. I secretly exerted strength with my right hand. After all, I had a formally trained body, which was in an overwhelming advantage compared to his system of being a slave for many years. I saw him gritting his teeth and holding on, but it still couldn't change the ending that his arm was slowly pressed down by me while shaking.

"Please both of you believe me." This guy still insisted. I really didn't understand. He really put a lot of effort into deceiving us.

"Tell me, what do you want?" I was really about to lose my patience with him. Even if he had a sharp iron sword in his hand, he had no chance of winning due to his physical fitness and the fact that Andrew and I were two experienced veterans.

"We just want you to join us. Then the best bread, fruit, and the sweetest wine will all be yours." Jurgen was so excited, but the more he said it, the more I couldn't believe him. You said you have the best food, but you are still wearing such tattered clothes. Look at the Bagodas who are attacking the city. They are not as good as the beggars on the street. What else can I say?

"If you want well-trained soldiers, then go find the German mercenaries. They are all very strong. Why are you wasting your time here?"

"Alas, respected Mr. Luca, you don't know." Jurgen sighed and said slowly: "They are excellent and well-trained, but they are ruthless. They only know the cold Oren and Denarius, and don't care about the warm and delicious milk and bread we can provide."

"So, we are the seeds of amorous love?" I asked him back.

I was too busy today. I checked traffic violations until 10 o'clock, which is a bit late.
