My wizarding career begins on Earth

Two days later. ♜♦

early morning.

A luxurious carriage stopped at the gate of the castle, and the escorting knights stood guard on their horses.

Lu He, wearing a black uniform, boarded the carriage, followed by Zelya and Nicole.

As usual, Mark worked as a coachman for Lu He and drove the carriage. After all preparations were completed, he said in a deep voice: "Let's go!"

The carriage wheels rolled slowly.

More than twenty knights quickly dispersed around the carriage, forming a defensive formation with the carriage as the center. No matter which side was attacked, they could quickly provide support and protection.

Most of these knights are high-level knight attendants, and the leader is even a knight.

Although the number of people is small, the overall strength is strong. With this kind of pomp, it is still no problem to kill an ordinary little noble.

Of course, Lu He did not go to exterminate the family, but went to the military camp to inspect the regiment in Highland City.

In addition to the title conferment edict, Princess Yulia also brought the appointment of the commander of the Highland City Legion.

This position of legion commander has always been reserved for the Soros family, because the Highland City Legion was established by the first generation ancestor of the Soros family.

Every commander of the legion has been the head of the Soros family for generations, and no other surname has ever appeared.

In the past, it was not too much to think that this legion was the private army of the Soros family. However, in recent decades, with the progress of the industrial revolution and the opening of people's wisdom, the influence of the Soros family in the legion has gradually weakened and is not as good as before.

But it's still a big one.

Most of the people in the legion, from the junior officers to the chief officers of each regiment, are members of the Soros family.

Therefore, even if Lu He has just reached adulthood, he can still become the top officer of this 10,000 field legion.

Because another person would not be able to take command unless the Soros family nods.

The location of the legion is located in a military castle in the northernmost part of Campas Province on the border with the Sarus Federation.

It would take about half a day for the carriage to go there at the current speed. The speed of the steam car would be faster, but the probability of lying on the dirt road outside the city is infinite, so currently the carriage is more reliable in the wild.

Lu He was reading the newspaper a few days ago and found that a simple steam fire had appeared in the Oster Empire in the south of Xizhou.

Maybe in a few years, this kind of steam train will spread to the Crescent Empire, and then the journey will no longer have to be so slow.

The journey took a long time, but Lu He didn't waste it. He rested his head on the half-elf's lap, ate the snacks provided by Nicole, squinted his eyes slightly, and pondered the control spell in his mind.

…

The Blackstone Fortress is solid and thick, with towering arrow towers and turrets, and the legion flag with a sharp sword pierced through the eagle is fluttering in the wind.

The soldiers on the fortress wore black military uniforms and carried black iron rifles on their backs. The swords on the muzzles had a cold luster, their expressions were solemn, and their eyes were cold and cold.

A room in the officers' camp inside the fortress.

Snapped!

A sudden crisp sound sounded in the room.

Brigadier General William walked around angrily with white oak leaves on his shoulders. His military boots crunched the broken wine bottles on the floor, making several other officers in the room look at each other.

But William’s appearance is understandable.

After being a brigadier general for more than ten years, I finally got a golden opportunity.

The head of the Soros family died unexpectedly in battle, and the new head of the family had just grown up and was still in high school. William could not think of any other opportunity that would be more suitable than now.

As long as he becomes the commander of this army, even if it only takes a month or a year, he can be promoted to major general, achieve a huge leap in status, and rise to the top of the military.

In the end, it was still taken away by the Soros family. It would be strange if there was no resentment or dissatisfaction.

"Your Majesty is confused! The aristocratic members are a group of worms who only know how to suck blood and eat flesh!" William's emotions were out of control, and his face became extremely distorted with anger.

Not only did he spend half of his life savings, but he also borrowed a lot of money, all of which was given to several noble councilors, expecting them to speak for him at a critical moment.

But I never expected that these morons would take the money but nothing would be done.

Just tell him four words: Don't do anything.

new

One of the majors stood up, picked up the spirits on the table, poured a glass and handed it to William.

"General William, please calm down. This is the end of the matter. Let's think about what to do next."

William took the wine, took a long sip, smashed the cup, and roared: "How can I not be angry! I started as a private, and it took me seventeen years to climb step by step to where I am now. I can do it right before my eyes." I became a real general, but I didn’t expect that I would be taken away by the Soros family!”

"Seventeen years old, yes, seventeen years old! What can he know? Can he tell the difference between north, south, east, and west? Does he know how to shoot a cannon? Does he know how to march and form a formation?"

The more William thought about it, the angrier he became. The anger in his heart was that he was a commoner, and it was not easy for him to reach this point. He could not get things even if he worked hard, but some people are born with them.

"General, please keep your voice down. If it is heard and spreads to the Soros family..." Long Tandon nervously looked at the door of the room, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"What's wrong with me? Am I afraid of the Soros family!?"

Having said that, his body was very honest, and William subconsciously lowered his voice.

"General, we'd better think of a way. Zoro is so young, I'm afraid he'll have to wait until he dies..."

The other captain stopped mid-sentence, but William knew what he meant.

"General, why don't you apply to be transferred to the army in the south? I heard that there will be a military operation against Dongzhou recently. This may be an opportunity."

"The South...if you go to the South, everything will start over again!" William said with emotion.

"General, we all obey your orders anyway and follow you. We can't trust Sauron at such a young age." Long Tandon showed his loyalty, but this was what he was really saying.

The situation on the front line is getting more and more tense. The war will break out at any time. What is the difference between following a seventeen-year-old boy and directly dying.

After hearing this, William felt relieved, his years were finally not wasted.

Although the Soros family is deeply rooted in the military, it cannot dominate the world with one hand. He still has supporters.

William was just about to think about it with his confidants when a sharp knock on the door suddenly sounded.

"General, the new army commander has arrived."

"What?!"

William was startled, and the anger on his face quickly faded away. He straightened his clothes, and several other people in the room quickly stood up and tidied up their appearance.

After the group packed up and dressed, they opened the door and walked out of the dormitory. When they arrived at the fortress's campus, all officers above the rank of lieutenant, except those on duty, had already arrived.

And they had already formed a queue of officers, standing quietly on the spot. Everyone was looking in the direction of the gate meticulously, waiting for the arrival of the new regiment commander.

William and his party were also officers, so they quickly found their own positions and stood up.

Before long, several figures appeared at the school gate.

They strode towards this side, and a depressing aura hit their faces.

The leader is tall and slender, with black hair and red eyes.

Wearing a black military uniform, knee-high military boots, and a golden oak leaf epaulette with thin silver edges on his shoulders. The number of oak leaves is one, which means that he is a major general.

Lu He walked to the stage and stared at the hundreds of officers under the stage. His cold voice spread throughout the venue.

"My name is Sauron, your legion commander."

"salute!"

Eugene took two steps forward, drew out the long sword from his waist, stabbed upwards, and crossed his right arm across his chest.

The officers behind him all stepped forward, the sound of their military shoes hitting the ground could be clearly heard, and they saluted solemnly with a "swish" sound.

"very good!"

Lu He's plain tone contained majesty.

He originally thought he would meet a thorn. As a professional soldier, he took life and death lightly and would do anything if he refused.

No matter how influential the Soros family is, there will always be people who are dissatisfied with such a young leader, so he plans to kill a few people to establish his own authority.

I didn't expect everyone to be so obedient.

At least judging from the attitude of this salute, they are very good.
