Legendary Hero

Chapter 99 A Group of Recruits

Although he said he was contemptuous, Bernard also knew that this young man named Luo Lin still has some skills, and he is currently performing the task given by the archmage Vianna, so there must be no interference.

But if you know it, you know it, when he thought of the scene where he and Dai Wei were sitting on horseback talking and laughing intimately, a flame burned in his heart.

It was this flame of jealousy that led him to follow the army quietly with his family's powerful knights.

He didn't even think about why he did this, maybe it was to monitor this kid and stop him before he got closer to Dai Wei. Perhaps it was to take advantage of this kid's bad luck and when the mission failed, he rushed up with the family knights to turn the tide and capture the beauty's heart in one fell swoop.

In short, impulsively, he did a stupid thing that he would never do when he was calm.

Army ahead.

The newly promoted commander Luo Lin didn't know that there was such a group of people behind him, and he was walking at the forefront of the group on a horse. Scouts kept galloping from the front and back of the team, reporting the situation around the team to Luo Lin, and after reporting, they roared away to continue the investigation, and so on.

Luo Lin listened carefully. As a foreigner who lived in the era of hot weapons, he knew nothing about marching in the era of cold weapons.

Some of the basic common sense of marching that he knew was still learned from the military book that Dai Wei sent him, which was very rough and had not been practiced at all.

So he is panicking now. Along the way, he tries to speak less, observe more, think more, listen to the opinions of Dai Wei, a learned magician, when he has nothing to do, and try not to show his timidity, so as not to affect the prestige he has finally established. .

Fortunately, this group of soldiers is also new and young, and they also know that their sergeant major is very powerful, so although Luo Lin's command is a bit jerky, no one feels wrong.

Beside him is Dai Wei who is a battle mage. At first, Dai Wei observed the surrounding scenery with great interest, but after watching it for more than half an hour, she got tired of watching it. Lin has been very busy, so she took out the magic book she carried with her from her pocket and read it, and she was fascinated by it. The horse carried her all the way, and she was immersed in magical knowledge, almost ignorant of the changes in the outside world.

Behind Dai Wei are the three most powerful shield fighters in the 100-man team. They are all 16th-level fighters. Their mission is to protect Dai Wei from harm in critical moments, so that she can cast spells without distraction.

Further on, there are still shield fighters, including the three who protect Dai Wei. There are a total of 20 people. These people can attack and defend. Their main task is to defend the army from damage.

After the shield warriors are the epee warriors. There are also twenty of them. Their attacks are very sharp. An epee warrior can chop a horse without armor into two with a single blow. They are the time to charge and attack. the backbone of the.

In the middle of the team are crossbowmen. This is a unique configuration for a first-class sergeant major. There are only ten people. They are equipped with special rapid-fire steel crossbows, which can penetrate steel armor within ten steps. A volley of ten people can form a dense rain of arrows in a short period of time, which is extremely terrifying.

This is Rollin's ace attack power. Luo Lin asked himself, if he himself faced this kind of attack, he would lose his skin even if he didn't die.

Then there are archers, they are holding military steel recurve strong bows, three of them are sniper archers, and they are almost perfect within two hundred meters. Regardless of psychological quality and archery skills alone, they are all at the same level as Ati who hid in the woods and attacked Luo Lin back then.

Equipping three sniper archers in a unit is also the patent of a first-class sergeant major.

The other five were scouts to investigate the news. These people rode the horses with the best endurance and the fastest speed. They have all dispersed now.

In the end, there were ten other orderlies who basically did not participate in the battle, and were responsible for transporting supplies and the like. Apart from riding a horse themselves, they also brought two extra nanny horses, and the horses were loaded with various marching supplies.

This time, their team only had a hundred people, and they were performing missions in the territory of the lord. They could temporarily go to nearby towns to obtain military supplies, so the logistical pressure was very small.

This is the basic configuration of a unit of soldiers, and also the basic structure of Vendome's armament. In the entire Vendôme army, there are always three guards in the west, north, and center. Each guard has three guards, and each guard has ten units. Roughly speaking, the total number of the regular army is about 9,000 people.

If you add the militias and reserves in the surrounding counties and towns, there should be 20,000 people.

Of course, this is only the army, and Vendome is a port city. The most powerful is not the army, but the navy that maintains the order of maritime trade. That is the real power to deter the surrounding area.

Therefore, for ordinary people like Horn, the sergeant major is already a great figure, but in fact, for the noble class, the sergeant major is not a big name at all.

The lord of Vendôme is also really rich. He equips almost every regular army with horses. The same is true for Rollin's unit, so the group marched very fast. It took only four hours to leave Vendome before the team moved forward. More than fifty kilometers, all the way through the countryside in the suburbs, into the barren wasteland.

Mire Town is deep in the north of the wetland. It is about a hundred kilometers away in a straight line. Not a small circle, and finally turned back from the northeast direction and entered the mud town.

In this way, they will only pass through a short section of wetland, about 20 kilometers away, and the wetland in the north is relatively dry and safer.

Of course, with such a march, the distance they have to travel will be greatly increased. After calculation, it should be nearly 200 kilometers, and it will take about three days to walk.

At this time, the sky had already darkened, and a scout ahead ran back to report: "Sir, five miles ahead is the Shoal of the Sola River."

Luo Lin ordered: "Go ahead and set up camp by the river!"

The soldiers suddenly agreed, speeded up a little, and arrived at the destination in ten minutes. According to the military book, Luo Lin chose a place with a wide view and far away from the woods as a temporary camp.

"You, you, your team, go chop wood and make thorns."

"Your team, dig a trench around the camp, two meters deep and two meters wide."

"You start preparing meals."

The regular army is well-trained, and the camps are also specially trained. There are well-established methods, and Luo Lin is just doing it step by step.

In about an hour, a well-regulated camp was set up. A large bonfire was lit in the middle of the camp, and the orderlies set up a large pot on it, and dry food was cooked in the pot. There are also various gadgets baked in the charcoal in the fire, such as voles, bullfinch, wild potato roots, etc., which were picked up by the soldiers from the surrounding fields in their spare time. Although there are not many things , but it can also be regarded as a great pleasure in the march.

Dai Wei had been riding for a long time, and she was already tired. After Luo Lin helped her get off the horse, she lightly beat her thigh with one hand, feeling that both her legs were about to break off, and the inner thighs were burning hot, yes Grinded by the saddle.

She knew that she underestimated the hardships of a battle mage, but even so, she did not regret her choice. She knew that if a mage wanted to become truly powerful, he had to hone himself on the battlefield.

She chose to become a battle mage, although there are factors of Luo Lin, but the more important reason is that she doesn't want to be a petite flower in the greenhouse, she wants to become a truly respected and powerful mage, just like her mentor.

"How do you feel?" Luo Lin asked with concern. In his eyes, Dai Wei was a delicate girl. She really worked hard today.

"It's okay." Dai Wei smiled slightly, looked around, saw a piece of grass, hesitated for a while, then found a slightly cleaner place, put it on a cushion, and sat down on her buttocks, she was so exhausted No, I can't take care of the lady's etiquette anymore.

Seeing that she was fine, Luo Lin immediately turned around and went about her own business. He is the commander, and he is very busy looking for everything. But every moment, he is gaining new knowledge. This sense of fulfillment makes Luo Lin very satisfied.

On this side, the soldiers were busy. In the distant woods, Bernard and his party of eight also found a secret place with a good view to rest.

Göring, the coachman, as Bernard's personal entourage, naturally followed. He was busy running around, trying his best to make his master feel comfortable.

As the host, Bernard had a lot of free time, so he found a big tree with lush branches, climbed up, and looked at the camp outside the woods from a distance through the gaps in the leaves.

He saw his sweetheart sitting on the grass and rubbing his legs regardless of his image. He felt admiration and distress at the same time, and he hated Luo Lin even more.

"What a rough man. I hate him. I really don't know what Dai Wei likes about him."

"Yes, young master, look at him, he is completely a novice, he must be the first day in the army." A knight echoed. He also climbed the tree and was watching the opponent.

"How about we pretend to be robbers and attack the camp at night?" Another knight suggested, "Take him out and teach him a lesson."

"No, continue to observe." Bernard vetoed this stupid idea, he couldn't make Miss Dai Wei feel disgusted by him.

"Master, I heard that there is a tribe of gnolls near the Sola River. Those guys are cruel and greedy. Why don't we lure them here at night and let them attack the camp?"

Gnoll, a native humanoid creature with the head of a jackal and a human body, roars like a jackal. They have low intelligence and are very strong at the same time. They like to live in groups and are ferocious carnivores.

"Wolf man?" Bernard's eyes lit up, but then he frowned: "It's a good idea, but with such a group of barbarians, I'm afraid it's not enough to deal with a regular army unit."

"Of course not enough." The knight said: "But I think these soldiers are all novice hands, with no experience at all. Those gnolls will definitely cause them a lot of trouble. At least this group of soldiers can be saved. ugly."

Can make a rival in love embarrassing? Bernard immediately had no objection: "Okay, let's do it!"
