Conquest

Chapter 60 [Promotion]

When the scout cavalry returned to the Thirteen Cavalry Regiment, everyone's face showed a slight relief.

The military sentiment brought by 自然 was naturally presented by the scout captain in accordance with the military system, while Charlie was brought back to the Guard by Kevin.

Watching the scout cavalry who had fought side by side silently left and returned to camp, Charya suddenly felt a little blocked in her heart-two days back on the road, when everyone was on the road, there was almost nothing to say, an invisible fire was Charya's heart burned terribly, and it grew hotter.

Looking at the scouts leaving, Charlie looked at the captain's back ...

忽 He suddenly felt lucky.

At least, the old guy was in bed when he died, and he could bury him himself. And the captain's son—to hurry back in time to hurry, they did n’t even have time to bury the body!

※※※

Neither Charlie nor Kevin had time to rest. They had just returned to the tent before returning to the tent. They hadn't had time to untie the armor on their body. Someone outside came to preach: The general wants to see them. right now.

When Xia came to General Adrik's account for the second time, Xia immediately felt the atmosphere different. At the door of the big account, the soldiers of the guards on duty doubled, and everyone's faces were filled with pre-war tension.

While Aya was waiting for the briefing, Xia and Kevin stood outside the big tent, and long after they heard the angry shouting of Aya in the tent, there was a fierce quarrel.

After a few moments, several generals came out of the big account, and Xia recognized one of them as Butler, the head of the third-haired silver-haired middle-aged man who saw the last time. Butler presumably also They are the generals of the banner group under the 13th Cavalry Regiment.

When seven or eight people stepped out, everyone looked different, some were worried, some didn't care, and some were angry. When they came over, Kevin immediately pulled Charya, and the two pulled back and saluted his chest.

After these people went away, looking at the confusion on Charya's face, Kevin said: "It must be a pre-war meeting, and the following flag groups have stolen for whom they played forward-this is common. Things. Look at the look of Butler in charge, probably the striker's chance is in his hands this time. "

The map on the wall in the large account has been painted colorfully, and some dense military symbols have been marked in various regions, and these symbols have also been painted in various colors.

As soon as she saw this map that seemed to be beyond recognition, she suddenly froze, and looked subconsciously ...

This ... seems like a military map symbol? I remember that the old guy's collection had special content about these things. When Xia was a kid, she looked fun, and once held a map of Wildfire Plain and graffitied for a while.

Huh, the square symbol represents your own station, the circle symbol represents the logistics facilities, and the dotted line represents the logistics transportation line.

All the triangles represent the height of each hill, and the ovals represent low-lying terrain. Small green flag symbols are drawn on some areas on the map, indicating safe areas that have been searched.

一些 Some places where small crosses are drawn indicate that there have been small-scale confrontations with the enemy.

Tiaxia couldn't help but be a little fascinated. It wasn't until Kevin next to him pulled him back. Charya looked up, and saw General Adrik above looking at himself with an interested look.

扈 The general Baba was blushing, and his forehead was slightly sweaty. He held a small dagger with a golden sword handle in his hand, and was cutting a thick piece of paper into pieces at will.

He looked at Xia, the movement in his hands did not stop. After a long examination, Xia even felt some scalp tingling, and then General Adrik retracted the bright scary eyes.

"You can understand the military symbols on these maps?" Adrik captured the look of the map when Charya first came in.

Xia Xia hesitated: "Know some." Kevin next to him curiously turned to look at Xia Ya. Charlie took a breath. "Some of the books I've read have these things."

"Very good." Adrik nodded, picked up a charcoal in front of him, and threw it to Xia: "Mark out on the map the place where you met the Odin conflict."

Holding a charcoal, Xia didn't hesitate, walked to the map to find the place accurately, and then drew a small cross symbol on it. After thinking about it, he marked a small circle symbol next to it ... Finally A gesture of satisfaction immediately appeared in Adrik's eyes.

The last symbol painted by Hsiaia represents the forefront of the enemy's search force in the Byzantine military symbol.

"It seems you really understand these things." Adrik smiled. He retracted his eyes, nailed the dagger in his hand to the table, and his face became serious. "I know the results of your actions this time." . Good job ... "

Squinting his eyes and staring at Charya: "You killed six Odin's Icefield Hunters alone?"

"... Five." Xia thought for a moment, calmly: "I killed five, and one was injured by me, which was killed by Kevin."

The general nodded, and he stood up, walked around the table, and walked in front of Xia. The general of the posthumous figure was very burly. When standing in front of Xia, Xia felt that he was not alone, but A male lion-the lion king!

德里 Aderick's eyes were bright and he looked at Charlie: "Look up and stand up!"

Then he pressed his rough hand on Char ’s shoulder and pinned a badge on Char ’s chest: “This is your rank.”

His tone is very serious: "You should have been a soldier, but in view of your outstanding performance in this mission, you have killed five Odins. According to the Imperial Military Law, I promote you to a sergeant."

This badge is just a polished black iron piece that is slightly raised. Xia originally didn't care much about this, but when she saw the black iron piece, she suddenly thought of the scout captain, his dead son, as if wearing it. This is the badge.

"I hope you understand, here, this badge represents the glory, blood, sacrifice ..." Adrik's voice was majestic: "In addition, you killed five enemies. According to the Imperial Army Law, you can get one A black iron medal of courage will be declared by the Military Law Office and will be sent to you soon. "

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned to look at Kevin: "Kevin, how often did you get your first medal of courage?"

Kaiwen seemed a little embarrassed, only scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "I can't remember, but it should be a year later ..."

"Ha! It seems this new kid is better than you!"

Adrik finished speaking and walked back to the table: "Kevin, take this boy to collect the new steed, and, starting today, the Guards are equipped with cavalry equipment!"

Kevin's eyes lit up immediately: "General, are we going to attack?"

德里 Aderick glanced at Kevin with a smile on his face, and Kevin immediately understood, excitedly slammed his chest, and ran away as he was still in a daze.

When he got out of the tent, Xia Ya remembered to ask Kevin what was about the medal of courage.

According to Kevin's explanation, if ordinary soldiers in the Imperial Army can kill more than five enemies on the battlefield, then they can get a medal of courage. This medal will also be the capital for future achievements.

The Black Iron Medal of Courage is awarded only to ordinary soldiers who do not have a military post. Once promoted to the rank of officer, such medals can no longer be obtained.

In addition, the Black Iron Medal of Courage has a special benefit: after the veteran who has obtained such a medal is retired, he can be exempt from paying all taxes of the empire for life.

Tiaxia listened to it and was quite disapproved-he originally lived in Wildfire, not a Byzantine empire, and he had never paid taxes to the Byzantine Empire.

Kevin pulled Charya back to the tent. The bald man seemed very excited. The reason for his excitement was simple:

"The Guards are rarely equipped with cavalry equipment. Since the general has given this order, it is obvious ... we have a big battle to fight!"

After a pause, he laughed: "Well, now I'll take you to collect your warhorse, and finally I won't need you to torture my spare horse."

After experiencing a battle, Kevin's attitude towards Charya has become much more intimate. Obviously, he has already begun to accept Charya as his comrade in arms.

"You become a sergeant, even if you are a 'soldier'! Generally speaking, in the army, a **** can only serve as a supplementary soldier, and only as a sergeant can it be a real warrior. We are here a cavalry and become The requirements of the main soldier are much stricter than the infantry regiment. You can now receive two war horses, both of which are your mounts, and also your cavalry equipment, armor, shields, pikes ... "

Speaking of this, Kevin suddenly stopped and patted his head: "Ah! I almost forgot an important thing."

"What?" Xia was a little confused.

"Your obedience!" Kevin smiled: "You are now a formal cavalry, a formal cavalry will be equipped with obedience, and as a relative of the general's guard, we have a special treatment, we can One-on-one is equipped with one obedience. If it is in the flag group below ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~, it is shared by several cavalry soldiers. "

"Oh, obedient? What's that for?" Xia apparently knew very little about the details of such an army.

Kevin frowned: "You guy can understand even military maps, but don't know this?"

He explained with patience: "Look at me, my current military post is a riding captain. I use three war horses, two sets of standing equipment, weapons, shields, and uniforms. In this case, someone must always take care of my war horses. , Feeding horses, washing horses, and wiping armored weapons ... someone has to do these chores? Of course, it is impossible for me to do these things myself, otherwise, just taking care of three war horses, I do n’t have to do anything else every day. Things are up. "

He paused, and he laughed: "Your obedience is your follower. You are responsible for fighting ... everything else is left to your obedience. Even if you are injured, you will take care of you."

As he said, he took a picture of Xia Ya, then walked forward, and said loudly as he walked: "Let ’s go, I ’ll take you to the Minfu camp and pick a suitable candidate-first of all, according to the tradition of our Byzantine army The cost of the cavalry's obedience needs to be paid by yourself! Anyway, your army is not low anymore, and you can afford to hire an obedient. "

Speaking of here, Xia suddenly remembered an important thing, and he strove to catch up with Kevin: "Hey! How much is my military puppet now-uh, where can I get it?"

[In reality, there was no rank system in the Byzantine period. There were only military positions in the army, and no rank. The rank system was formed after the fifteenth century.
