Chapter 58: Getting on the Carriage
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! I quickly shook off my dripping crotch, picked up Andrew's dropped sword, and led Fermiou onto the carriage first.
Andrew held a piece of meat that he had just torn from the war mastiff in his hand and clenched it tightly.
“Andrew!”
I called him again, but he seemed really stupid, just staring at the group of war mastiffs fiercely. It seemed that this guy's beastly nature had reached a point where I couldn't control it. Seeing that the group of war mastiffs were closing in step by step, I didn't have much time left.
I used the shield to cover most of my body in order to block the Burgundian's cold arrows. I didn't want to become a pile of broken bones like the groom.
"Andrew! Give me your hand, let's go see Aetius!"
I tried to reach out my hand to Andrew, who was squatting in front of the carriage. He turned around and stared at me with red eyes, as if he didn't recognize me. My hand was waving there for a long time, but he didn't move. He stared at me like a real bloodthirsty beast. Oh, my temper came up immediately. You just tore a beast apart! Now I don't care about the wet crotch.
“Bang!”
I walked up to the bastard and gave him a big slap in the face. He was stunned and stared at me in surprise.
"What the hell are you still pretending for?"
I cursed and grabbed Andrew's mail, not caring about his reaction. My only worry was whether he would bite me the first time I pulled him up. A bite would be the least of my worries. I was afraid that this idiot would tear me apart like a beast.
Fortunately, this guy seemed to be slapped by me and was pulled up by me without moving. A war mastiff suddenly bit Andrew from behind. This beast was targeting the weak spot behind Andrew and wanted to attack him from behind. In such a hurry, I suddenly used my body to hit the beast that was about to pounce on Andrew's butt.
I felt my body shake violently. Such a strong dog, almost as big as me, collided with me and knocked me over. If Formio hadn't supported me, I might have fallen to the other side of the carriage.
"We are in the car now, how about we go in?"
I asked them both directly. Andrew might not have recovered from the killing just now, so he said nothing. But Fermiou shook his head like a rattle and said, "No, no, no! Marshal Aetius is sitting inside. It is disrespectful for low-ranking soldiers like us to enter this carriage!"
The carriage was still moving forward. I looked ahead and saw that Levi and his cavalry were still continuously taking down the Burgundians who were charging at them. However, the endless stream of Burgundians were like waves coming in. Not only were Levi and his cavalry gradually unable to cope, but the number of soldiers in the phalanxes of the first battalion below was also declining sharply.
"Look, do you see that?"
I pointed forward, pulled Femio's mail and lifted him in front of me, and said, "This is the safest place. I don't care about Aetius. I just want to live a little longer!" Femio stayed where he was, looking at me stupidly, and stammered, "Marshal Aetius will kill you!"
"Bang!"
It felt like my shield was hit by a fist. I turned around quickly and saw a wooden arrow piercing my shield. The metal arrow head was pointing at me. I swallowed hard, secretly glad that the shield was thick enough, otherwise I would really have to visit the Almighty God.
"That's enough! I won't talk nonsense with you anymore, I want to go in!"
Fermiou couldn't dissuade me at all. I pushed him aside, lifted the curtain and looked inside. At first, I didn't dare to open my eyes. I thought, what if this Aetius is a pervert? What if there are seven or eight naked women inside? I don't know if I should stay in there. What if he is a violent maniac? A car full of real guys, I will be cut into pieces if I go in. Or is he a gay? Oh, how disgusting! I couldn't care less. I thought I was fully prepared mentally and slowly opened my eyes.
"WTF!!!"
When I shouted like this, even Fermiou and Andrew, who would rather be attacked from behind, poked their heads in. My current expression was also imprinted on their faces. There was no one in this carriage!
In addition to the gorgeous silk cloths, there are also containers for wine, parchment for reading, and decorative flowers next to the bed. Although the space looks a bit crowded, it is still gorgeous. "This is where people live!" I can't help but think of the famous saying of Emperor Nero hundreds of years ago.
"This decoration is probably only comparable to the car of the current Emperor Valentinian."
Andrew and Fermiou looked up and down at the small carriage, seemingly completely oblivious to the deafening sounds of killing going on outside.
"Hey! Luka, look!"
Andrew pointed at the silver wine jug on the small wooden table in the middle, and before I could say anything, he rushed over, grabbed the wine jug, and shook it next to his ear in front of us. Perhaps he heard the clinking sound of the wine in the jug that he wanted to hear, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wine! Fine wine!"
Andrew held the silver wine jug tightly to his chest as if he had picked up a piece of gold, fearing that Fermiou and I would snatch it away from him.
"Oh, Andrew, we are just here to hide, don't take anything! Besides, if we return alive, we will have more than enough wine to drink!"

“No, no, no, no.”
Just as I hurried forward to dissuade him, Andrew waved at us, puffed out his chest with a look of disdain, pointed at the wine jug and said, "You two peasants from the same village, what do you know?" As he said that, he held the silver wine jug and greedily took a deep sip in front of his nose. He drank for more than 30 seconds. This guy's lung capacity is really great.
"Oh my Lord, I praise You!"
Andrew held the wine jug and kissed it hard. His red eyes turned into grape purple. He pouted his lips and took a small sip from the mouth of the jug.
"Oh my god, let me taste it!"
This guy must be sick, he muttered to himself, and took another sip, this one was much bigger than the last one.
"Oh my God, the wine of Edessa, the treasure of the Eastern Empire!"
I think this guy has forgotten his identity!
Recommendation votes, brothers and sisters! I really need the recommendation votes from brothers and sisters!
