Aiwa caressed Queen Sofia's cheeks, his sight moving over her tender swollen breasts from time to time, her breath followed the up and down movement of those elegant peaks,
those sexy and enticing breasts brought ripples inside his heart, making his beast blood boil, but he made great effort to restrain himself, actually his rushed breath had already exposed his uneven mood.
The Queen was not at all interested regarding a 17 year old youngster's excitement; she even turned her body, letting her head directly stick on Aiwa's chest, that soft erect chest pressing towards him.
Aiwa was attracted by the Queen's alluring breast peaks, his hand moved along her arms, during the massage, accidentally touching her breasts, but that affair was also done in a split moment, he didn't dare to put his hand on the Queen's breasts; that would be being rude to her, clearly asking to be punished.
The Queen didn't care at all about Aiwa's accidental touch; she merely closed her eyes enjoying Aiwa's massage.
Aiwa massaged the Queen's body for an hour; his hands were already sour due to exhaustion, at this time the Queen made him stop. When he was leaving the Queen's lounge, Aiwa quite difficulty pressed his legs together and left. He was anxious that the rising tent caused by his penis would be seen by Jancy.
Standing outside the door, Aiwa's mood didn't settle, he had seen many woman and even abused a beautiful woman like Ruth, however the Queen was no ordinary woman, although he drooled with desire for the Queen, he didn't dare to take small advantages of her. This was the most painful thing for a man.
[What happened?]
Seegle sized up Aiwa, seeing him take deep breaths, and seeing the risen tent in his crotch region, she was puzzled and asked.
[No, nothing —- —-]
Aiwa nervously swiped the sweat on his forehead. On such a cold day he was unexpectedly sweating, looking at this Seegle couldn't help but laugh.
[In a while our work will be done, you come to my room, I have a good thing for you to eat!]
Seegle sent a charming glance towards Aiwa. She could see that just now Aiwa went in and received the Queen's charm and enticement but he couldn't release it out. Seegle quickly thought of getting this handsome 17 year old youngster's love, she thought: [At least have to give my first kiss to him.] Hearing Seegle's vague provocative invitation, Aiwa's heart started to throb, thinking to himself: [Unable to release my beastly desires on the Queen's body, if able to release them on Seegle's body; that is also quite good!] Thereupon Aiwa vaguely responded to Seegle's invitation.
One quarter hour later, these two finished their work, the other shift palace maid replaced them. Taking advantage of the situation, Aiwa quickly followed behind Seegle into her room. As soon as he entered he quickly held Seegle's fine waist, that hard penis pressing closely against her underbelly.
There were no need for words anymore, Seegle was also impatient, their two mouths pressed together intensely sucking each other.
Aiwa kissed her fragrant lips, kneading and pinching her petite but stylish breasts. Seegle had never before experienced being kneaded by a man, not know much, her body quickly became weak due to Aiwa's actions.
[En — — Oh — —]
Seegle was unable to restrain her emotions and moaned, being careful that her moan wasn't transmitted outside. The patrolling palace maids heard the strange sounds from Seegle's room and quickly gathered outside the door listening carefully. They suddenly pushed open the door of Seegle's room, what reflected inside the patrolling palace maid's two eyes was the scene of Aiwa and Seegle embracing each other and kissing.
Seegle and Aiwa were delivered in front of the Queen, according to rules, those doing promiscuous things inside the imperial palace were met with a severe punishment, and Aiwa never thought that he had only hugged and kissed Seegle but still had to accept this punishment, however what he didn't know was those who were caught doing adulterous behavior inside the imperial palace were met with what sort of punishment.
The Queen's face was expressionless, Aiwa guessed, the Queen was surely going to accept his excuse of the first awakening of love and pardon him, perhaps give some face for the sake of his father. Therefore, when he stood in front of the Queen, Aiwa wasn't nervous, rather thought the Queen would give a favor outside the rules, making him feel guilt.
[Jancy, tell him, what punishment is given to those who conduct such a taboo.]
The Queen said with a calm and kind tone.
[Carrying a promiscuous love affair inside the imperial palace is met with a punishment.]
Jancy said with a serious expression, coldly looking towards Aiwa and Seegle.
Seegle lifted her head towards the Queen and Jancy making a puzzled expression.
Seegle was common born, and also had recently entered the imperial palace, she had only heard that one couldn't act recklessly inside the imperial palace, but she didn't know this punishment was what, also the seriousness of the punishment. But hearing 'punish' that word, quickly made her body tremble, assuming it had to be a very fierce punishment.
[You wish to accept the penalty or wish to be under room arrest?]
Jancy asked the two individuals.
[Penalty is what? Room arrest is what?]
Aiwa opened his mouth and asked. He was a knowing the in's and out's guy, if he didn't think there was any problem, then he would at once accept it.
[Penalty is accepting cat punishment, letting my small adorable cat inside the crotch region of your trousers for a quarter hour time. As for room arrest - one month!]
Jancy bluntly said.
Aiwa and Seegle looked at each other, he thought: [If it's room arrest, then 1 month time, still can choke to death, and isn't accepting cat punishment only for a quarter hour time? Even if it was difficult, it wouldn't kill a person right?] Although Aiwa was young, he understood some worldly matters, for the sake of his father's face; the Queen wouldn't be likely to kill them while they were alive.
[I wish to accept cat punishment!]
Aiwa said raising his hand, looking towards Seegle. [I also wish to accept cat punishment.]
Seegle also didn't wish to lose a whole month's freedom. To say the outside world was a very beautiful thing for a youthful girl going through her prime, if she was shut inside a room, then it would be a great injustice. However she also didn't know this cat punishment would be how fierce. She had never seen a kitten, very adorable! Isn't just letting a kitten stay at the crotch region inside the trousers for a quarter hour time? How could it be that fierce.
[You two follow me.]
Jancy shot a cold and detached expression towards Aiwa, turning around to leave the Queen's lounge.
Aiwa and Seegle glanced at each other, following Jancy they reached a special room, there were all kind of torture instruments here, after looking once, Aiwa was frightened. Don't tell me they were going to use iron chains to bind him? Which country's punishment have not excused a senior official, although Aiwa couldn't be considered as a senior official, no matter what he was his family's only son, after looking at the monk faces and Buddha faces, also if they used that red hot flatiron to brand him, that would be his Holtzer family's disgrace.
[Feel relieved, these equipment aren't going to be used on you, inside the imperial palace the penalty for promiscuous activities is accepting cat punishment.]
Jancy went to the corner of the reception room, Aiwa and Seegle followed Jancy to that dark nook, only to see inside that dark nook there were two bright eyes looking at them.
[Jesse, come over!]
After Jancy gave out a shout, a cat suddenly appeared from within the darkness, it's height nearing 2 chi*, a huge plump figure, set its sights on Aiwa and Seegle.
TLN: 1 chi = 1 Chinese foot = 0.33m.
[Chi —- —-]
That cat's yell didn't resemble [Meow meow] that kind of cry, that [Chi] seemed like it was protesting towards these two persons.
Jancy gripped the claw of the cat named Jessie, those claws were extending out as if they were sharp fishhooks, if grabbed by them, blood was sure to flow, inevitably leaving a deep pitch on the skin, maybe they could even tear down their flesh. Especially seeing the cat's expression, hiding a ferocious qi inside, could let a man shudder after their sights met.
[Aiwa, you are General Kyle's son, I'm going to give another opportunity to you, are you going to accept the cat punishment or the 1 month room arrest?]
Jancy coldly looked towards Aiwa, after all Aiwa came from a special background, she also didn't want to offend this general house's sole son, someday he was sure to have many achievements, if she did a small favor for him using her power, after his meteoric success, it would be easy to let him to buy her own veil.
[Then can she also have another chance?]
Aiwa pointed his finger towards Seegle and spoke, because of the love affair with him Seegle also had to receive punishment, if he abandoned Seegle this pitiful girl, then that would not be proper, making him feel guilty; accepting difficult things were the ability of a genuine man.
[She may not, she is of common birth, and can only receive the punishment.]
Jancy harshly said. This also wasn't strange, Aiwa would leave the Queen in the future, becoming a high-ranking military officer leading a party of troops, but Seegle could only be a maid her whole lifetime, only if she is demanded by a noble birth person, she could at most become a small concubine.
[Then I wish to accept the same punishment as her.]
Aiwa firmly spoke. His bravery was out of Jancy's expectation; she believed he would surely use this chance. [You'll not regret it?]
Jancy once more reminded Aiwa.
[I only want to know, your cat is a male cat or a mother cat?]
Aiwa slyly asked, his face didn't show the fear he had before.
Jancy strangely asked: [It is a mother cat, why do you want to know?]
Jancy thought in her heart: [Don't tell me you are going to rape it after it gets into your trousers?] [Hehe. I prefer a mother cat.] Aiwa laughed and glanced towards the nervous Seegle. After Seegle looked at those sharp claws, she was dazed, and Aiwa was still cheerful and witty, she couldn't understand. [Aiwa, this is my mistake, you by all means must not suffer with me, can you accept the room arrest?]
Seegle grabbed Aiwa's arm and implored. Right now she felt a deep guilty conscience towards seducing Aiwa. If it weren't for her taking the initiative to tease Aiwa, he also was improbable to receive this kind of implication.
[Seegle, since this a matter between us, how can I run away alone? Let's get punished together!]
Aiwa acted like a hero who was unafraid of death, neither shivering nor having fear.
[That's good, come, receive the cat punishment!]
Jancy gave a lovable shout, two palace maids came in, they separated stopping near Seegle's skirt and Aiwa's trousers, afterwards stood aside waiting for the next order.
[Who's going to come first?]
Jancy looked towards Aiwa who was showing a fearless of death appearance thinking of letting him eat some sufferings; apparently this youngster still didn't know the cat punishment's fierceness. Merely she was a bit anxious, if she let her cat defame this guy, then someday she wouldn't get the opportunity to torment this youngster. Because from the external point of view, she knew Aiwa was an unusual guy, merely even the Queen hadn't eaten, she could only look. Right now she still couldn't penetrate the Queen's thoughts, therefore she didn't dare to very fiercely torment Aiwa, she merely thought of letting him taste the flavor of this cat punishment.
[I'll come first!]
One maid came over and untied Aiwa's belt, although the palace maid was one year older than Aiwa, taking off the waistband for a young boy made her blush warming her heart, when she was untying that belt, this palace maid still exploited her authority, looking towards the crotch inside the trousers, looking at Aiwa's big penis inside that faint darkness, this was it still in its primitive state, without an erection, if it became hyperemic, it would be a wonder if it didn't frighten her to confusion.
At this moment another palace maid had already held the cat in her embrace. That cat which appeared very ferocious, was obediently curling up in the maid's embrace, that soft and plump body pressing against the region between the palace maid's breasts; looking towards the palace maids well developed bosom, Aiwa's that below region thing at once soared high. Actually Jancy was prettier, and also sexy, merely that cold expression of hers made her appear cool and elegant, unable to make Aiwa's nature rise.
As soon as the palace maid held the cat in her embrace, Aiwa had already started reciting the incantation in silence, going along the course to use his yin technique. Not matter it was a mother cat, Aiwa thought of using the yin technique to make it more docile when it was inside the crotch region in his trousers, if it didn't scratch his chap then all was good.
After Aiwa moved his dou qi, he secretly covered only the cat using his yin technique, after a second, the cat didn't know what to do, under the provocation of Aiwa's yin technique, it's passion quickly appeared out, Aiwa perfectly controlled the provocation, not letting the cat show excess sexual desire, simply making it more docile. However Jancy didn't notice this change. Under her order, the palace maid hugging the cat arrived in front of Aiwa.
This palace maid also seemed to have a generous heart, not at all letting the cat injure Aiwa, therefore, she slowly released the mother cat inside Aiwa's trousers, she was anxious that the cat would suddenly flare up, As a result, she also thought of using her power to help Aiwa, she cautiously dropped the cat inside that region, her two caressing the cat's body, so as to not let it get irritated, she had personally seen the tragic sight of a maid who accepted the cat punishment. After the event, that palace maid's lower body was dripping with blood all over.
During the time she was caressing the cat, her small hand inadvertently came across Aiwa's big male root, when she lifted her hand, she furthermore held his thick male root lightly holding it once, after she raised her head, blushing all over, an impulse started to jump around her navel.
[Why haven't you still started?]
Jancy stood there seeing that palace maid's petty maneuver, one first awakening of love palace maid was at this time taking small advantages of an individual, feeling a man with her hands, this also isn't an irregular affair, therefore, Jancy acted like she didn't see, merely urging her to finish quickly.
[Everything's prepared good!]
The palace maid hurriedly took her hand out, standing to the side. She silently prayed in her heart, mother cat oh mother cat, you by no means must move around, express desire at once can! She even shut her eyes bringing her hands together to pray.
[Why are you being so concerned?]
Jancy didn't understand the reason for the palace maid's closed eyes and praying appearance. [No —- — It's nothing —- —-]
The palace maid was scared as she quickly put down her hands, opening her eyes. The cat mother inside Aiwa's trousers at last began to move, however it wasn't the same movement as the time others received the cat punishment, rather it withdrew its claws, turning over, rubbing its hairy body over Aiwa's that region made it feel comfortable, even more comfortable than a woman's hand caress, at this time the hourglass to the side started measuring the time.
Aiwa couldn't help but shut his eyes.
Jancy, Seegle and all other person's anxiously looked at him, thinking: [If that cat flares up and hurts Aiwa, then he was sure to give out a heart tearing lung splitting yell], but Aiwa only shut his eyes, however he also didn't reveal an infatuated or easy look on his face, so as to not receive another penalty. He closed his eyes, putting out his neck in pain, sometimes still gritting his teeth, mouth issuing a zi zi noise.
The palace maids and Jancy knew of the cat punishments fierceness, thinking to themselves: [This Aiwa was really from the General's house, receiving such a big punishment but still not issuing a sound from his throat!] [ Aaah —- —-] Aiwa happily moaned, but he showed a painful expression on his face. [Aiwa, if you can't bear it, you can shout in a loud voice, no one will laugh at you.]
Seegle was already feeling sorry; she couldn't help but repeatedly remind Aiwa.
[ Oh —- —- Aah — —]
At the time that cat mother was turning over in his trousers, Aiwa's moans incessantly came out, even the stone-hearted Jancy was unable to bear it, but after is her carried out affair, she couldn't give in to personal considerations, therefore, although her heart sympathized for Aiwa, she could only stand there not saying a word.
The sand in the hourglass lessened little by little, to conform the curtail of Aiwa's punishment time, Seegle and Jancy from time to time looked over to that hourglass, silently looking forward to the sand inside the hourglass quickly finish falling.
One quarter time at last passed by, however, when almost a handful of sand still hadn't fallen from the hourglass, everyone clearly saw Aiwa's body tremble, it seemed as if he was a chick being teared down by a cat, Jancy immediately made a palace maid take out that cat from inside Aiwa's trousers. That palace maid believed that Aiwa was already drenched with blood being clawed by that cat's claws, but when her hand stretched inside, feeling Aiwa's leg once, she didn't find even a single scratch or injury!
That thick male root was the region the palace maid was most worried about; her small hand brazenly felt it up, that hyperemic root again swelled up in her small hand. However, that root was nevertheless smooth, completely scar less!
The palace maid's hand continued to inspect that thick male root, but at the same time a doubtful look appeared on her face looking at Aiwa. That face was asking: [What is with this matter?] [What happened?] Jancy seeing the palace maid haven't taken her hand out of Aiwa' trousers, quickly urged her. The palace maid foolishly looked at Jancy, not knowing how to reply.
Jancy walked past, her hand stretching inside Aiwa's trouser, she was very concerned whether her cat was still alive, what she didn't expect was, that cat was obediently lying there on it's stomach as if it hadn't received any order! When her hand felt another thing near the cat, she couldn't help but blush. She very strangely brought out the cat, avoiding the ears and eyes of all persons, Jancy directly tucked that cat inside Seegle's skirt.
Seegle was immediately frightened and made a big leap; she saw that cat extend its sharp claws, pressing them against her smooth skin, still not ready to let that cat tear her flesh into tatters!
The strange thing was, that cat merely wriggled inside her skirt, still extending her small tongue licking at the region from where her liquid flowed.
Seegle felt ashamed; apparently this was more difficult to bear than getting clawed by the cat.
However, gradually, that feeling became more and more pleasurable, she unceasingly moaned, she feared she would be seen through by Jancy, and put out the painful appearance she learned from watching Aiwa.
Looking at the sand inside the hourglass had almost finished falling, Jancy simply ordered the palace maid to bring out the cat. When the palace maid held the cat, she found Seegle's body also didn't have any injuries. But she didn't make a fuss about this, rather seemed very calm. After all she was also a girl, also didn't have any hatred towards her, naturally she didn't wish for the counterpart to suffer any pain.
Actually the Queen's also didn't want to let Aiwa receive many sufferings, not so, that cat punishment also wouldn't have been only for a quarter hour. Furthermore, all others didn't know, Jancy raised two cats, one was a specialized cat which only punished bad people, resembling Aiwa this kind of child who had done his first offense, if only it was going to show a attacking nature, it could be easily handled, even if Aiwa didn't adopt that live saving yin technique, he also wouldn't have suffered a huge deficit, Jancy possessed propriety, she couldn't offend Old General Kyle's military.
[Bear in mind, your 1 month's official salary is going to be penalized!]
Looking at these two haven't suffered any injuries, Jancy's original anxiousness quickly changed into one kind of anger, adding one additional penalty. Regarding this bit, Jancy really had the authority, if she said it then she would surely do it, haven't any person who dared to negotiate with her.
[Miss* Jancy — —]
*TLN : Young lady ——-> Miss
Seegle was thinking of speaking something but looking a Jancy's excessively severe appearance, simply frightened her making her shut up.
Jancy followed the two executing punishment palace maids and went out, leaving only Aiwa and Seegle inside the room. But they didn't have the mood to carry out a love affair again, the cat punishment just now had already frightened them covering their whole body in cold sweat, although Aiwa was good at using the yin technique, that didn't guarantee its effect on the cat's body, therefore he was sweating, and speaking of Seegle, a girl's most treasured object was precisely her body, if her that smooth and tender body was clawed, what face would she have left to show to a person!
[You haven't sustained injuries right?]
Seegle naturally didn't know the reason she didn't sustain injuries was due to Aiwa's yin technique, therefore she was concerned about Aiwa's situation. She even thought of overcoming her shyness as a girl, untying Aiwa's belt and having a look inside.
[I — — It's not important.]
Aiwa also didn't dare to let Seegle have improper thoughts about him again, if again dared to let Seegle look over shedding his trousers, in this a man and a woman together situation, if he is again punished, then his luck wouldn't be this good. However, he could also make out, Jancy tried to protect him, not so, how could it be that she didn't discover his small conspiracy?
After the two persons came out, they continued to be stationed outside the Queen's lobby not daring to neglect their work. The Queen had the power over life, killing, giving and taking, if really someone offended her, could they still happily eat fruits?
After Aiwa continued to stand guard for several days, the Queen once again called him inside. Actually this was both the lounge and work region of the Queen. Only, when receiving a chancellor, then it would have been changed to a different region. This time he was again called for a massage.
Aiwa didn't hear anything regarding the cat punishment from the Queen and he also didn't speak about it, it was as if this matter never happened at all, the Queen simply lied on the spacious chair enjoying Aiwa's meticulous massage.
Although Aiwa was bewitched several times by the turbulently moving up and down silky chest of the Queen, he didn't dare to have the intention of making a move, last time he had merely kissed Seegle, still didn't enter into the essential stage, he at once met with cat punishment, if he made a move on the Queen's body, his life was still not enough to pay for it! Thinking of here, Aiwa's original intense sexual desire quickly lowered down, even that small chap became soft, not standing up even after supporting with his hand.
Right now Aiwa was anxious about only one thing — if he continued to wait at the Queen's side, wouldn't he become a handicapped person! Because he didn't have any other choice but to make great effort to repress his emotions not letting his thoughts go towards that respect, the Queen's body had that kind of enticing power, at the time he used his power to overcome that urge, he needed to expend a large amount of essence qi.
[Aiwa, you like waiting at my side?]
The Queen asked while still keeping her beautiful eyes closed. Because she hadn't spoken for a long time, these sudden words immediately made Aiwa's heart didn't fully understand these words had appeared from where. [Like.]
By the time Aiwa understood the reason for the Queen's words, he thought of replying in a rush. [Then if you are dispatched to go the border to assume a minor functionary, you wish to go?]
The Queen asked again. This made Aiwa really baffled.
Considering his intentions, fawning on the Queen was precisely for getting an official post, if he spoke he wished to go; then wouldn't it contradict with him just now saying he liked serving the queen at her side? If he said he wasn't willing, then that would be losing his first opportunity to go outside! Until the next time the Queen spoke again, God knows when would that time come again? Thereupon Aiwa cleverly thought and asked: [Why does Your Majesty want me to go?]
[It isn't me who wants you to go; right now I also don't have any means. Your matter from a few days ago has already spread, if I don't show a play to them, then what's the need for rules?]
The Queen meaningfully spoke her heartfelt words, as if she was completely giving thought for Aiwa.
[I thank for the Queen's beautiful thoughts. Letting me go to which border garrison?]
Aiwa didn't dare to delay, if he accepted this, then it was better for both the parties involved.
[The southern Tanzya tribes often disturb my southern frontier, needing one capable general cadre; I don't expect you to have a heroic battle with the Tanzya people, if you are able to keep the law and order of the military there that would at once be good.]
Aiwa had already heard about the southern Tanzya tribes, furthermore they followed matriarchy, each woman was bold and powerful being able to give a good fight, Federer had precisely lost several battles against them.
Although Aiwa had never treated himself as a general, but thinking of the mediocre Federer, eating defeat several times was also not a strange affair. If a person like him was able to gain victory that could be explained by one thing —- —- the enemy was very weak! Aiwa thought of making Federer go again to that region, after he settled the law and order of his men there, he would humiliate that conceited Federer! At the same time winning the affection of those two Herman clan thousand jin individuals, wouldn't it be hitting two birds with a single stone?
Thinking of here, Aiwa became smug, lowering his body he asked the Queen: [When can I set out?]
[Unexpectedly you're in such a hurry to leave, didn't you say you like waiting at my side?]
The Queen turned her body, looking at Aiwa she laughed and said.
Favargo, it was a small garrison to the South.
TLN: fá bā gòng —> Favargo
In the local dialect 'bā gong' meant pointing towards the mountains. Here the rivers criss-crossed with each other, the mountains extending forever into the distance, Favargo was situated on plain within these mountains, it's area covering less than a 100 li.
Hearing someone was coming to replace him, the local official was a bit wild with joy, he was afraid after Aiwa entered here, he would change his plan of remaining here; therefore he quickly packed his luggage to leave this ghost region he had overseen for 5 years. During this 5 years time, he had never spent a single peaceful day here.
He had requested the Queen for troops to attack the Tanzya tribe two times, however the result was that the Queen had sent Federer this incompetent generation, resulting in reprisals from the Tanzya tribe, if it weren't for the sturdy city wall's protection, both the young and old of his family would have already been dealt with by the Tanzyanians.
Aiwa along with a few soldiers came to the southern city walls, going towards the Tanzya tribe's direction. Shrouded by the bloody sunshine of the setting sun, dust rose till the sky, inside the dust, there was a squadron of troops slowly moving towards the South.
A few of those chamberlains were left behind by the old general, they were very familiar with this region, in order to thank Aiwa for replacing him, the old general specially chose a few able assistants as a present to Aiwa. Aiwa didn't refuse, this was an unfamiliar region to him, this kind of manpower was quite essential.
[Those Tanzyanians are again fighting over our frontier people's property!]
A chamberlain sighed with regret and said. Aiwa could barely see using his naked eyes, most of those mounted soldiers were women, and their strong and healthy bodies were clearly distinguishable under the setting sun.
[Don't we also have cavalry?]
Aiwa turned and asked the chamberlain at his side. [They are a nomadic tribe, living their daily lives on horseback, very swift and fierce, our so called cavalry have only ridden a horse during their training time, which could also be treated as having fun, and how can they overcome them?]
The chamberlain said. This chamberlain was the one who held the highest expectation in the ex-senior officer's eyes, however, after the attacks by the Tanzyanians intensified, those cruel reprisals made the Hass Empire's frontier people not able to speak of their sufferings. Therefore, he also didn't fantasize about this Aiwa who came from a General's house in being able to change anything; if only he didn't provoke anything, and then steadily lived his life it was good enough for him.
[Does our cavalry train regularly?]
Aiwa's sight watched the backs of those victors, although they didn't have eyes on their backs, from their leisurely appearance Aiwa could make out that they loathed and made fun with regard to Hass Empire's defenders.
A kind of rage rose within Aiwa's mind.
Aiwa's sight moved away from their backs, looking at the mountains all around, after seeing the valley between these extending mountains, Aiwa concluded that these Tanzyanians were surely infiltrating from within this valley.
[Every path inside the valley could be their attack route, our numbers are also limited, making it is impossible to cover each and every mountain pass, moreover our fighting strength is unable to compare to our enemy. Must not see that they are mostly woman, their fighting strength doesn't differ even a bit when compared to a man.]
The chamberlain wanted to warn Aiwa: Guarding inside the city walls is the safest, if are overconfident of our cavalry, then that would be delivering their small life to its end.
[What you want to say is, we can only get plundered by those Tanzyanians?]
Aiwa could make out the actual meaning of his words. His sharp gaze attentively watched the chamberlain at his side.
[Answering the Chief, What I want say is, if we don't want the Tanzyanians to harass us, then it wouldn't be possible by just relying on our current army.]
The chamberlain quickly explained.
[Then do you have any good ideas?]
Aiwa kept asking questions. Actually he didn't have hope that this chamberlain would be able to propose a good idea, if not, the ex-senior officer would have already recommended him to the Hass Empire making his name famous.
[No.]
That chamberlain had already realized the general idea; he quickly retreated to the back.
[Transmit an order down, during this 1 month, nobody is allowed to act blindly without thinking, carefully train their troops, after a month I'm going to conduct a big martial arts competition, giving a heavy reward to the victor!]
A grand plan was brewing inside Aiwa's mind.
At this border town small garrison, an army of almost 2000 men were stationed, among them one-third consisted of the infantry, and cavalry another one-third. The remaining portions of soldiers were those who were banished here after violated orders. In an average persons eyes, these soldiers were only criminals, therefore, the senior officer never looked at them as humans, to fight a battle it was necessary to charge and breakthrough the enemy lines, but to speak of it there had never been any kind of reward for it. Thus, when that chamberlain heard the victor would be bestowed a heavy reward by Aiwa, he didn't dare to believe what his ears had heard.
But from Aiwa's tone of speaking, he could feel this was a man who kept his promises! The contempt he held previously lessened a bit.
Aiwa made some persons plant many scarecrows, to be used as an imaginary enemy to train the soldiers. The cavalry was trained twice every day, those who had experience were made as the senior officer's trainers, once during the day, once during the night, due to Aiwa's promise, the soldiers put out all their energy into training, some soldiers still intensely trained while the others rested, because they were thinking of standing out during the competition.
When the soldiers were intensely training, Aiwa often sent a group of soldiers to inspect the situation at every mountain pass.
By a week, he already knew all the regions around Favargo from the inside out, especially the southern mountain pass terrain near Tanzya.
After a week, Aiwa took half of his infantry visiting every mountain pass, making them make grotesquely shaped things from the trees and mountain rocks. The soldiers all didn't mind this, believing this newly appointed senior officer was an immature child, merely wanted to have fun, however as Aiwa was a swift and decisive man, no one dared to disobey his order.
During the time the soldiers were undergoing every kind of training at Favargo city walls, the Tanzyanians once again plundered the Hass Empire's frontier population, those frontier people could only organize a self-defense organization and resist the Tanzyanians, however they could only run away while fighting the Tanzyanians, without having any other choice.
The reason why the Tanzyanians only fought over their things and never injured a person was that they had strict discipline, during the course of plundering; they only took what was absolutely essential, not allowing anyone to injure a Favargo person's life. Therefore, each plunder didn't cause any casualties to the staff of Favargo. This was also the reason Hass Empire hadn't sent troops to attack Tanzya.
After half a month of training had passed, the skill of many officers and men made a quantitative leap forwards, their hands started to itch, because the ex-commander was afraid of the soldier's casualties and was met by the Queen's blame, he didn't dare to send troops out, making the soldiers fighting strength decline. And after Aiwa took the commander post, he began to bitterly train them, making the soldier's secretly scold Aiwa in their hearts, but gradually, after they found their fighting strength increase, their hearts admired this newly appointed senior officer.
As a result of their confidence increasing due to Aiwa, some officer's thought of striving for Aiwa's first class merit, hence a hundred man general called Samo led a squadron of troops to loot a Tanzyanian stronghold. However, they suffered an ambush by Tanzyanians on their way back; Aiwa led some troops to save Samo still suffering more than half casualties and returned. Aiwa had previously sent an order, without his order, no one was allowed to act blindly without thinking; violators would receive a heavy punishment. The officer Samo thought this time's attack would increase his deeds, but he didn't expect Aiwa to make him get hit by a rod hundred times, those hits made his flesh lacerated. Since then, the discipline within the army became more firm, no one dared to hold Aiwa's order as a joke.
After a training of 1 month finished, the competition also began. Aiwa personally looked at the fights. Majority of them were sporting events, cavalry had equestrian archery, waiting to assassinate on horseback, the infantry compared their sword teachings and marksmanship, doing battle with the assassination pike was also popular becoming the infantry's main sporting event.
Especially within the equestrian archery, a large number of experts who could shoot with great precision were fished up. Aiwa asked the chamberlain at his side: [When compared to before, haven't they made progress?]
The reply was: [Not at all the same! They cannot be compared!]
[If this army fights again with the Tanzyanians, what are the odds of success?]
Aiwa proudly asked.
[If we use our current military strength to attack Tanzyanians, then it was sure to be like passing a hot knife through butter, sweeping everything before us!]
That chamberlain wasn't speaking senselessly; rather he was shocked seeing the martial arts competition before his eyes. Those soldiers' each had their own abilities, relying on their current fighting strength beheading those Tanzyanians was like a small appetizer. Aiwa made a slight smile, he had seen the strength of those Tanzyanians with his own eyes, when he rescued Samo, the opponent was merely the rank of a chieftain, those roundabout spears and rain of wooden arrows had already made Aiwa extend his scope. According to his judgment, these soldiers current fighting strength was still insufficient to contend against the Tanzyanians. Because he knew, Tanzyanians only killed as a last resort, only if to guard a life would they openly kill. If the counterpart didn't have the skill, this bit was impossible to do. During that first fight, even disregarding their lives the Favargo soldier's couldn't even injure a single Tanzyanian. This point was most clear in Aiwa's heart. Therefore, he once again transmitted the order that without his order no one was allowed to go out to fight.
However, the troops garrisoned at Favargo weren't like soft mud anymore, if a Tanzyanian saw them, they would surely be surprised.
Aiwa didn't think of immediately going out to fight, rather requested the Queen to dispatch troops as reinforcement, also specially mentioning to send Junior Officer Federer who was very familiar with this region. He had to let that youngster Federer get humiliated again, tear down his overweening attitude.
After a week, Federer really arrived at Favargo town under the Queen's orders carrying 2000 troops with him. In the capacity as the supreme commander of 2000 troops, it was inevitable for Federer to act high and mighty in front of Aiwa. [Aiwa, don't you have any abilities? How? Just arrived at Favargo and so quickly asking for the Queen's help? The counterpart are only a few women, at once making you so much frightened, hehe, this really is not worthy of a General's later generation!"]
Federer looked at everyone here condescendingly, after suffering two continuous defeats at the Tanzyanians, he still wasn't ashamed standing in front of Aiwa, making Aiwa baffled. After so long, he had found such a scapegoat like Aiwa, at long last he could recover a little face, therefore, he wasn't going to miss this opportunity.
[Junior Officer Federer, my hopes rest on you, I have suffered the harassment of those Tanzyanians here every day, especially I heard that their soldier hoot that if they could boil and eat my good friend Federer, it would increase their vitality, they are very aggressive, therefore I specially requested the Queen to send your group to humiliate those Tanzyanians!]
Aiwa knew that what Federer most disliked were negative remarks about him, if he shifted the thoughts Federer had in his heart towards the Tanzyanians, which would provoke Federer. As soon as those words were finished, Federer's face became completely red.
[Aiwa, don't worry, I don't need even the least bit of your soldiers assistance, I'll make those group of Tanzya sex slaves obediently lick you foot, wait and see!]
Federer said fuming with rage.
[You've come to help Favargo, in the capacity as this region's senior officer, how can I not help you? If the Queen knew that I was watching with folded hands, then isn't it asking me to get punished?]
Aiwa intended to make Federer think that he himself refused Aiwa's assistance, and take a good look at the moment he is humiliated, therefore Aiwa deliberately incited him.
[There's no need for you to get involved in this matter, I can go by myself, naturally, if my boy wants to contribute a bit, you can come outside the city walls to meet me as I bring back the enemy's head. Hehe, it isn't that I Federer am not convinced of your soldiers, they can toy with women or play cards, as for fighting a battle, it's best for them to wait inside safely.]
Federer looked at Aiwa and spoke with contempt.
According to what Aiwa had found out, Tanzyanians had an unwritten rule, every time they plundered, they never murdered, but if someone dared to take the initiative to attack them, then they would openly slaughter. It was because of this reason, Aiwa's subordinate who had disobeyed his orders and attacked them suffered cruel reprisals, resulting in more than half casualties. Federer also suffered their cruel reprisals because he came to Favargo and took the initiative to attack them, resulting in a disastrous loss. Federer was after all the prime minister's son, his couldn't bear to lose this face, therefore his belly was filled with fire looking for an opportunity to make reprisals towards those Tanzyanians, but he didn't know where was his weak point, he only knew how to take revenge, and gladly came here after receiving the Queen's order. All of this was within Aiwa's prediction.
Federer rested at Favargo for 2 days, his investigators informed him that there were some Tanzyanians plundering at the East, but their encampment didn't have anyone at guard there.
This news made Federer very excited, but he didn't tell this news to Aiwa, he thought of alone possessing this service, and request a good reward from Her Majesty Queen. Aiwa had already heard about this news from his scouts, but he knew, those Tanzyanians operated very quickly, never spending the night at the place they plundered, they quickly returned to their stations, protecting their home.
When Federer's army was setting off early in the morning, Aiwa was standing on top of the city walls as if he was sending some one off. Federer showed a certain victory attitude.
[Junior Officer Federer, I'll arrange a victory feast for you by the time you get back!]
Aiwa said with a loud voice standing on top of the city walls. Federer turned around and laughed, whipping his horse, a cloud of dust rising behind his back.
After the army entered the valley, they advanced towards the Tanzyanians current residence. The whole journey, the scouts returned back to inform about the Tanzyanians situation, seeing that those Tanzyanians didn't dispatch their troops, also had not gone out to plunder and return.
Federer's heart was secretly delighted, thinking to himself: [This time have to destroy the Tanzyanians old nest, giving a heavy hit to them, spitting out the resentment in his heart. Because of the fear of getting their army found out by the left over Tanzyanians, when they were still 2 li away from Tanzyanians living area, Federer who was eager to seek victory quickly ordered to charge fiercely, the attack noise shaking the sky.
At the time they hadn't appeared at the distance of several hundred meters from the Tanzyanians living area, several squadrons of Tanzya cavalry surrounded them, Tanzyanians didn't have an official professional army, but they always brought the entire nation to arms, even slightly older 10 years children would go to do war, including those who were just 10.
Originally Federer was afraid of being killed by Tanzyanians and merely showed a brave face, looking at the coming to kill Tanzyanians from all directions he was immediately defeated.
Federer have a loud shout, using that horsewhip and battle cutlass to drive those soldiers to rush forward, but those soldiers quickly left his side and escaped, making the yelling from his worn out throat be of no use. Soon his 2000 men army was split up after fighting with the Tanzyanians, Federer didn;t have any option but to personally accompany them guiding them to kill the Tanzyanians.
A girl wearing the Tanzya attire rushed over, her hand holding a long sword, wearing a military officer rank officer clothes; she stabbed towards Federer! Federer's dou qi was no match for the girl's sword qi, the battle cutlass in his hand flew out, Federer hastily took out a dagger from his waist to welcome the enemy, but how could it handle the long sword in the enemy's small female hand. That girl's body was strong and healthy, looking pretty, turning over on horseback, her sword cut the reins of Federer's horse.
Federer lost his balance for a moment, and tumbled down the horse. Some of his imperial guards were killed by that pretty girl, and the others escaped out, Federer still hadn't gotten up, and was quickly subdued and bound by a few Tanzya girls. The conceited Federer had become the Tanzyanians captive!
The soldiers under Federer's control quickly returned to Favargo city walls, but Aiwa didn't appear to personally meet them, merely letting the city wall guard let them come in, letting them gather again at a region.
Dusk.
In a region almost 10m away from the Tanzya encampment, there was a small enclosure used for surrounding the horses. Federer was stripped, leaving him with nothing but his small trouser, confined to a stake, although he hadn't suffered beatings, the cold wind was already enough suffering for him.
[Kayseri, this time's yield was due to my first class merit. He was the one who had attacked my encampment last time, this time I have to make him taste our ferociousness!]
An individual 17,8 year old girl, her long and elegant golden hair tied into a ponytail, a mature individual, who resembled a woman chief said.
[Wuya, then this Federer is yours, you can handle him. If you want him to lick your foot in the evening, this gigolo ought to be pretty good.]
After Kayseri shot a glance towards the bitter and exhausted Federer, she changed direction towards a thin, whole body supporting a deputy soldier's armor girl and said.
Wuya held a horsewhip in her hand came over in front of Federer, she used to handle to twist around his ribs, making Federer give out a blood-curdling scream, his rib region had already caved in due to Wuya's this one twist. When Wuya took out the horsewhip, Federer's skin and flesh immediately spun around coming out, beads of sweat appearing on his face.
[Dog shit!* I still thought you were some kind of hero, not even able to bear this amount of pain!]
*TLN: Saying 'Dog shit' is cursing the other person here.
Wuya swung the horsewhip in her hands however she wished, leaving scarlet moldings all over Federer's face.
[You carefully watch him, don't let this youngster escape, let him nicely taste the flavor of our Tanzya's cold nights!]
Saying thus, Wuya turned around to leave with her attendant.
After sundown, the curtain of night enveloped all over Tanzya's sky, making those tents disappear in the darkness, only their outlines could be faintly seen.
Aiwa sent four elite troops under the night's screen, quietly approaching the enclosure where Federer was tied up. There were Tanzya soldiers all around the enclosure in 2's and 3's, after all Federer could be considered as one of Hass Empire's military leader, although he was only a school ranked officer, nevertheless he was also the supreme commander who attacked Tanzya, therefore the reason for the strict guard.
But those Tanzyanians were soaking in victory and glee, although the chief had warned them, but those who were guarding Federer couldn't have ample rest post-war, however even they didn't predict that someone would come to rescue him during the night on the same day he was captured.
The soldiers stationed at the front were shot to death by the poison arrows of two Favargo elite troops, collapsing silently; the other two Favargo elite troops continued to go near Federer.
At Federer's side, there were two Tanzya soldiers who were holding pikes and incessantly stamped their foot to warm themselves, it was late autumn at Tanzya right now, the nights became very cold.
Federer had long ago started to freeze and tremble, in the beginning he used his dou qi to resist the cold, but it was also limited, very quickly he exhausted his dou qi, clenching his teeth to endure.
The two Tanzya soldiers holding the pikes could apparently heard some sounds, and suddenly turned their bodies, they didn't have time to even see clearly, however a poison arrow had already pierced their throats. When the distance is less, those arrow was enough to be fatal when penetrating a throat, moreover the poison would quickly act in a second, letting them meet a violent death.
By the time Federer could even understand what had happened, one of the elite troops had already cut open the ropes binding him with a dagger.
[You must not speak, follow behind us, we were sent by Aiwa to come rescue the General!]
That elite troop said in a low voice, hear Aiwa had sent them to save him, Federer was incessantly excited but at the same time he was also felt hate and shame simultaneously, if changed with another person, he surely would have had a feeling of gratitude, but unfortunately it was that damned Aiwa!
But in order to live, he had no choice but to follows these elite troops and escape the enclosure. He had already forgot about the chilling night, unable to feel the thistles and thorns under his foot, he ran the whole journey, going beyond the fence.
There was another squadron standing at a distant place to provide support. A soldier draped a cloak over Federer's shoulders, supporting him with one hand. These party of troops moved towards Favargo under the night's guise.
The tired Federer had already fallen asleep on the horse, if it weren't for the two elite guards protecting him, he would have already fallen down.
The Favargo elite troops carried the battered and exhausted Federer and directly came to the Aiwa's headquarters. Aiwa was sitting upright inside a chair, just like a talented and dignified high ranking military official, the military management this past month was not only to train his soldiers, but also to train himself; making his open and childish face appear a bit more experienced, especially his two eyes became more keen and sharp, giving him more self-confidence.
And Federer also didn't think he would be brought here, as matters were wouldn't he be humiliating himself in front of Aiwa? When he looked at Aiwa sitting upright inside the chair, he turned his sorry figure around and immediately tried to leave.
[Commander Federer, why are you in such a hurry to return? It can't be that you don't even have the strength to wait for 5 minutes right?]
Aiwa stood up from the chair, implying that he wanted Federer to go up to the chair to his right side.
[Don't you just want me to say 'Thanks' this word? Aiwa your courage and wisdom are both large, saving me from inside the enemy camp; I Federer can't thank you enough for it. However, if you are thinking of using this to threaten me, making me promise something; then you are wasting your energy!]
Federer's nerves were already tense, he quickly thought about this question on the road. Since is Aiwa dispatched the persons to save his life, he naturally had a grateful feeling, but he could in no way promise the condition of marrying his sister to Aiwa.
[Haha, Junior Officer Federer, I in the capacity ass Favargo's highest senior officer, being a soldier of Hass Empire like you, when you were trapped in the enemy camp, I naturally have the duty and responsibility to rescue you, I am here at the Queen's command, how can you speak of such selfish motives? If I Aiwa am trapped at the enemy border, don't tell me Junior Officer Federer won't dispatch men to rescue? Therefore, regarding this rescue matter, you can be completely carefree, because this is a public matter, and isn't due to selfishness, within my memory, relying on our personal relations, it seems Junior Officer Federer still haven't what achievement and virtue to be capable of letting me go take risks right?]
Aiwa attentively watched Federer whose face had already become pale. There was another idea behind his words, that was, if isn't because of the devotion and loyalty towards the Queen, Aiwa wouldn't have sent someone to save him.
Federer's face became blue. Then white. Originally he was ashamed and unable to show his face due to suffering a crushing defeat, now he had again appeared in front of Aiwa in such a sorry state, he really thought of finding a hole to bury himself in.
[Come person, still haven't exchanged a tidy military uniform for Junior Officer Federer?]
Aiwa yelled towards a imperial guard. A chamberlain immediately left, after some time bringing back a whole body army clothes. [Junior Officer Federer, You'll accept to wear right? In my barracks there aren't any specially allocated Junior Officer clothes like yours, but it's more important to stop your body from freezing!]
Aiwa's concerning words were like daggers thrown towards Federer's body. But he could only bear getting humiliated by Aiwa right now, because this first class soldier's dress was also offered by Aiwa, he couldn't refuse.
Under the soldiers lead, Federer went to a changing room, completely discarding the shameful emotions; he threw away the cloak on his body and changed into the soldiers dress.
When Federer came out of the changing room obeying the soldier, Aiwa humorlessly said: [Still have to say, the appearance of Junior Officer Federer wearing these soldier clothes is very fitting!]
What he actually meant was, Federer shouldn't be the commander, and be a small soldier. This was no doubt a humiliation for a arrogant officer like Federer, he was left speechless for a moment, his complexion changing to a purple color.
And Aiwa continued to say: [Although you were captured by the enemy this time, however, I don't think this is a bad thing, at least we could rescue you from under their eyes, this was a major hit towards the counterparts confidence, only after this time's lesson, Tanzyanians would surely become angry, I suggest you to not have any military operation in the meantime, if next time you again fall into Tanzyanians hands, then the would certainly not be this comfortable!]
