To Four Thousand Years Later
v3 Chapter 125: knowledge is power
In fact, the city of Rome is already the end point of Charles and his party going south.
But after all, he couldn't let everyone follow him into the city. Because this is not a problem of the level that will cause confusion and commotion... It's just that the jade root can't be inserted. They could only stay outside the city. Only King Solomon and his petite queen, Tupin and Leo III entered the city. "Let's go, Lord Marquis." Charles said leisurely, "There is no one else, just the four of us. Those soldiers will disturb the people when they come in, and I can't stop them from knocking over people or breaking bottles. Take it directly. Where to go first is up to you." Then...go to visit Lord Hildigard first? "
Lan Nuohou asked tentatively. He said, and immediately added: "Master Hildigard is now our backbone, he is the ranger who killed the cruel tyrant. He is now a marquis. Ah, you have heard of him before noon. The name "ah, I know. The demigod who drove away the dragon.
Charles smiled softly. He interrupted Lan Nuohou's words: "Okay, let's go see him first. I have never seen him, and I have never been to Rome, and I have to rely on you to lead the way. By the way, we are familiar with each other...just the four of us ?"
Lan Nuohou responded, and asked again with some surprise. As the king of the country, he brought the queen to live in the capital of the defeated country. But he didn't even bring a guard by his side.
What a boldness of mind!
To know. King of Frank. Now in Rome. There are definitely not many people who are hostile to him-and the person they are about to meet. But the demigod ranger Hildigard who can fight the dragon head-on!
Hildigard is said to be the son of the **** Apollo. He can easily dodge crossbow arrows fired within ten meters, and can kill local generals from a thousand meters away; even without a bow, he can kill a strong wild boar with just three punches. Facing such a terrifying person... If he was on a hostile side, Lan Nuohou thought that he would not dare to meet him without a guard, and he would not even give this person the chance to see him. After all, in case Hildigard exploded at close range, he wouldn't even be able to resist at all. own life and death. Almost entirely in the mind of a ranger - though, to my lord the Hildigard. Not so... But Lan Nuohou knew very well that all these rangers were extreme and brave people.
Because of the legend of Hildigard, many young people are resounding towards the life of free rangers who are not bound by morality and law and who are chivalrous.
But in reality, life and family can really be turned on their backs. Those who have been in the forest and wilderness for a long time and risked their lives to associate with mosquitoes and beasts are almost without exception people who have been abandoned by society.
They occasionally act bravely, but more often they rob houses or assassinate lonely travelers. In a sense, these rangers are no different from bandits and bandits. Even if a few are well-known, their views of good and evil are completely different from ordinary people. And Hildigard had only one.
But even so, the bad reputation of the rangers has in turn affected Lord Hildigard. It was for this reason that the nobles secretly rejected him. But King Solomon... he was not worried about Hildigard's temperament. Instead, she decided to meet him generously.
Comparing King Solomon and King Stone, it was the first time Lan Nuo Hou felt what a qualified king should be like.
I saw that King Solomon's eyes were piercing, his voice was high and loud, his actions were crisp and neat, and his language was humorous and knowledgeable. He has a mysterious appeal in everything he does. Just being around him makes you feel refreshed. It's not like King Shi, who always looks at the battle.
Maybe, that's not bad? Lan Nuohou's heart moved slightly. "Your Majesty King Solomon," Lan Nuohou's tone became much lighter after talking for more than ten minutes, "I heard that you have developed a mysterious weapon?"
"Ah, yes. But I didn't invent it alone, but I created it together with my craftsmen. Charles said gently: "Whether it's a howitzer or a rocket car, or a steam engine and 'Steam Rush' is not my personal wisdom. I am just a summarizer and paraphraser of other people's wisdom.
"You're being humble... Who knows, these scholars are also digging up from the folk. It is also a rare ability to have such a barley eye.
Lan Nuohou complimented him sincerely. When he usually compliments others, he always tries to find some reliable advantages for the other party. In fact. This is not an easy task - to be able to discover the merits of everyone, Lanohou admits, but only King Solomon, he didn't bother to make it up at all. As long as he expresses the thoughts that arise in his heart, he can immediately and truthfully speak out.
However, after hearing King Solomon's words, Lan Nuohou also had some doubts in his heart. Analyzing from the name, "Howitzer" seems to be a special kind of stone bomb that can explode, and "Rocket Car" should be the one that can shoot out instantly. What are the "steam engines" and "steam rushes" of chariots with a large number of burning arrows?
Lan Nuohou hesitated for a moment, then immediately asked the truth.
He noticed that King Solomon was very perceptive. He didn't want to give the other party the impression that he had something in his heart but didn't say it.
"Steam engine, I didn't bring it this time. You will see it sooner or later. As for the steam engine, Charles pointed back at that thing and said relaxedly: "Isn't it over there? "
"Then Your Majesty. What is that for?"
"It's mainly used to attack fortifications. As long as one or two such vehicles can easily smash through the city gate. Charles replied: "It's something I prepared for the invaders from the east.
King Solomon really wanted to fight Persia!
Lan Nuohou knew it in his heart. He paused slightly. He pretended to be puzzled and asked, "That is to say, a battering ram?"
"It's better than a battering ram. Charles smiled slightly: "I'll show you later. Pick out one of my weapons and show it to you in the north of the city—just in time for you to gather the people and nobles. Worried about "I came to Goth. I beat Goth. But I always want you guys to know how I beat you."
Charles turned his head, looked into Lan Nuohou's eyes, and said calmly: "I not only want to show you the power of these weapons, but also teach you how to make them.
"King Solomon once said that knowledge is power. Let me explain to you the inner meaning of this proverb.
