Don't forget Truva

——Engraved on Barr's pocket watch cover

*******

*******

"Hey, what are you doing in the army for? I came to be a soldier purely because I didn't want to farm. "

"Oh, oh! Then you are as like as two peas in my army. I was also a soldier in order not to cultivate land. It was really hard to cultivate land.

"I want to eat. Our family is too poor. The army's usual meals are more and better than those in my family. "

"I want to earn military merit, become a general in the future, make a lot of money and marry a lot of women."

"Hahaha! Make a lot of money or something. Just think about it! There are so many soldiers. How many can make a lot of money? "

"Hum! People have to think about it, don't they? By the way, Barr, what are you doing in the army for? "

"Yeah, yeah, Barr, why are you in the army? Aren't you of noble origin? Since he was born in a noble family, why not enjoy a good life and come to the army to suffer? If I had your background, I wouldn't be a soldier. "

"My reason for being a soldier...?"

I was silent.

After a long silence, I whispered in an almost murmured tone:

"I came to be a soldier for the sake of our people."

……

……

With a sharp eyebrow, Barr woke up from his sleep.

Open your eyes and see the familiar white tent.

After sitting up from the bed, Barr's eyes subconsciously turned to the mirror on the long table not far away.

In the mirror, an old man with white hair and wrinkled face was reflected.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Barr couldn't help but show a bitter smile on his face.

After raising his hand and touching the wrinkles on his face, Barr sighed:

"Alas... I'm really old..."

While taking a nap in bed just now, Barr recalled for no reason what happened when he first joined the army.

At that time, I was still a young man under the age of 20.

Now, it has become an old man who may not have many years to live.

——When is it now

As Barr whispered in his heart, he reached out and touched the pocket watch at the head of the bed.

After taking the pocket watch, Barr held it in the palm of his hand and gently rubbed the cover of the pocket watch with his thumb.

On the cover of the silver watch, a sentence was engraved with a knife - don't forget Truva.

The name "Trova" is like an invisible knife. It not only hurts Barr's eyes, but also hurts his heart.

"Trova" - the term is synonymous with shame for many people in the Lorraine empire.

The Trova treaty signed with the British Empire five years ago not only compensated the British Empire for a large amount of money, but also ceded all the seven provinces of ruva, Lorraine, Ontario, Sher, ROCA, Calais and pros to the British Empire.

These seven provinces are not only one of the few rich areas of the Lorraine Empire, but also densely populated areas.

The costly Northern Line of defense against the britannians was built in these seven provinces.

Ceding these seven provinces to the British Empire not only severely damaged the economy of the Lorraine Empire, but also seriously damaged the national defense of the Lorraine empire.

After learning that the Trova treaty was signed, Barr felt that his bones were aching.

On that day, he experienced unprecedented pain.

In the past five years, Barr has only one goal - to recover the lost land and recapture all the lost land robbed by the britannians!

In order to motivate himself, Barr engraved the words "don't forget Trova" on the cover of his pocket watch with a knife.

When he felt tired, Barr would take out his pocket watch.

Just look at the line on the cover of the watch and Barr will feel like a spring.

He opened his pocket watch and looked at the current time. He found that it was just after 15 o'clock in the afternoon. Barr stood up and planned to visit the military camp outside the account.

Leaving the curtain, a fresh air different from that in the tent came towards Barr's pavement.

After taking a deep breath of the fresh air, Barr looked out.

The white military tents are connected one by one to form a huge military camp that can't see the end at a glance - this is what Barr reflected in his eyes behind the curtain of the military tent.

Barr is now on the northern border.

110000 troops have been deployed on the northern border adjacent to the British Empire.

A large number of baggage and troops are still gathering.

Looking at the huge barracks in front of him, Barr felt a surge of pride and strength gushing from the depths of his body.

After learning that the britannian empire was invaded by the Frankish Empire and that the Knights of Gabriel and Rachel were seriously damaged in the Rhineland plain, Barr knew that the best time to recover the lost land had come!

This is the weakest period of the British Empire in recent decades - there is no doubt about it.

It's not time to start the Northern Expedition and recover the lost land now. Barr held this idea. The other senior generals of the joint army jointly wrote to Queen Bella and asked her to order the northern expedition to recover the seven provinces lost five years ago.

Unfortunately, Queen Bella is still as faint as ever.

Barr's brow gradually tightened.

Because his thoughts gradually returned to the time when he had just written to Bella.

Barr's eyebrows tightened involuntarily when he remembered the scene at that time.

……

……

……

……

More than 2 months ago——

Lorraine Empire, imperial capital, Tuli, Bella bath.

Barr and two other veterans under him, Denis and Leo, are kneeling by a big bath on one knee.

Because the periphery of the big bath is hung with thick cloth curtains, Barr and others who are located by the pool can't see the scene in the bath at all.

Barr, Denis and Leo are in Beira bathhouse, a new bathhouse built three years ago.

Bella loves extravagant life.

In order to satisfy her hobby of bathing, Bella spent a lot of money to build this huge bathing place for her only three years ago.

Because the bathhouse was only used by her, Bella named the bathhouse after herself.

Queen Bella is taking a bath in this Bella bathhouse at this time. If she wants to ask Bella to order the northern expedition, Barr and others can only come to the edge of the bathhouse and talk with Bella through this thick curtain.

Barr, kneeling by the pool on one knee, sniffed.

All that went into his nostrils was the fragrance of milk.

Smelling the fragrance of the milk, Barr sighed and whispered in his heart:

——It's really... Too extravagant

The reason why the air is filled with the aroma of milk is also very simple.

Because Bella usually takes a bath with milk instead of ordinary water.

The huge pool that can hold 300 people to take a bath is full of heated milk.

How many barrels of milk is needed to fill such a huge pool - this is astronomical.

At the thought of the amount needed for Bella to take a bath, Barr felt powerless and couldn't help sighing helplessness and heartache.
