Lord of the Oasis

Aubrey and others worked with the officers in the barracks until midnight, and finally came up with a specific plan.

In the tent of the military camp, I slept carefully all night.

At dawn, the soldiers' morning training is about to begin.

The soldiers who were called the day before formed a queue by themselves, separated by some distance from other soldiers.

Wait until Aubrey arrives at the training ground with a group of people.

The soldiers have just finished their morning exercises.

Aubrey walked up to the alternate soldiers and blew his whistle. Let all the soldiers line up ten people neatly according to their height.

"Today is the first day of training. Our training courses include not only physical training, but also knowledge training. The mission location you are going to this time is very special. If you can't master basic relevant knowledge, it will be difficult to keep up with the team Footsteps. Due to the tight schedule, the soldiers of the Sixth Line, who are the first to start, followed the Duke officer for cultural knowledge training. The soldiers of the first five lines followed me for the scheduled physical training." Aubrey said hello , to issue missions to all soldiers.

"Yes!" The alternate teams replied in unison.

The leader of the sixth row raised his right hand, letting the soldiers behind him follow him, and the group jogged behind Officer Duke.

Aubrey watched as Duke led the team behind him into the room.

Turning around, he said to the soldiers in front of him, "Then let's start too."

The sun gradually rises to the top of the sky, which is the hottest time of the day.

The other soldiers have been disbanded, but the candidates are still undergoing arduous training.

The small place where everyone stood was all wet with their own sweat.

Accompanied by his attendants, Kant walked in from the door of the training ground.

Yadonis, who was resting under the arbor, rushed out immediately after seeing Kant, and went to greet him at the door.

"Hello Lord." Yadonis saluted.

"Well, good." Kant nodded, but kept looking at the army training in the southwest corner: "The soldiers have really worked hard."

"Hard work is natural.

Every soldier has served our country with pride. "Adonis replied righteously.

"That's why you are highly respected." Kant withdrew his gaze, looked at Yadonis with a smile and said, "Captain Aubrey reported to me that there are more than a hundred people, and the soldiers in this training ground seem to be There are only about fifty people, what about the others?"

"Other soldiers are undergoing knowledge training under Duke officers." Yadonis replied.

"Duke?" Kant recalled the name and said in his mind: "By the way, he was there when he went to Cumberland before. Now he should be back in the ranks of guards."

"Your Highness, did you come here specifically to visit the soldiers under training?" Yadonis asked.

"Well, I received Captain Aubrey's report last night, so I thought of coming to see it for myself." Kant nodded and said, "It seems quite reassuring now."

"Well. In the past two days, we have seen Captain Aubrey's talent in training." Yadonis praised: "Since you have already come, Your Highness, why don't you go and greet the soldiers?"

"No. It's lunch time now, and I don't want to put too much pressure on them." Kant waved his hand and said, "What's more, there are still many unresolved matters in the palace. I still have to go back as soon as possible."

"Your Highness, you are busy with government affairs every day, so you still have to pay attention to your health." Yadonis comforted.

"Well. Indeed." Kant responded: "Maybe after this incident is over, I can give myself a vacation."

After saying this, Kant ordered the attendants around him to arrange the carriage and prepare for the return trip.

"Your Highness, go slowly." Yadonis said goodbye as he sent Kant and his party outside the door.

Kant sat on the carriage and nodded with his face sideways, but did not reply.

Three days passed quickly, and during this period: Kant never went to the barracks again.

When the final team candidates were determined, Aubrey sent a letter to the palace, inviting Kant to go to the army to have a look.

Now it's almost late autumn, and the sky is getting darker and faster.

Kant set off from the palace in the evening and watched a sunset on the way.

By the time they got off the carriage at the gate of the barracks, the last ray of light in the sky was also gone.

"Lord, you are here." Aubrey greeted happily at the gate of the barracks.

"Yeah." Kant nodded and turned his gaze to Aubrey.

Aubrey has been accompanying the candidate troops for various trainings outdoors these days. The skin is also tanned a notch.

"You have worked hard these few days." Kant comforted him.

"It's okay, staying in the guards, it should be considered lucky to be able to receive such a task." Aubrey walked at the forefront of the team and led the way. Hearing what Kant said, he turned sideways and responded.

"Leaving tomorrow morning? Soldiers." Kant changed the subject and asked.

"Yes." Aubrey nodded.

"The team leader has already been selected," Kant said.

"Well, the soldier in charge of the team this time is called DeWitt. The overall quality and so on are quite strong." Aubrey introduced.

"So tonight is the swearing-in meeting?" Kant continued to ask.

"Well, so I would like to invite the lord to speak a few words." Aubrey hesitated and said.

"Every time I come to give a speech at the swearing-in meeting, the soldiers are tired of listening to it." Kant said with a smile.

"How could that be?" Aubrey denied.

"Anyway, I won't say anything this time. The soldiers go out to perform missions. Their lives are in the hands of their captains, not in my hands. Compared with listening to what I said, I would like to hear What would you say if you were the captain of DeWitt?" Kant suggested, evading Aubrey's request.

"But DeWitt probably didn't know that he would be suddenly named to speak on stage." Aubrey said worriedly.

"If you don't even have this on-the-spot reaction, it will be very difficult to entrust the entire team to him." Kant shook his head helplessly after hearing Aubrey's words.

The two arrived at the training ground while chatting.

In the training ground, open fires will be lit at night, illuminating the entire venue in a bright light.

The training of the soldiers has ended, and there are only twenty-three soldiers standing in front of the commander's platform at this moment.

"Hello Lord!"

The soldiers greeted Kant in unison after seeing Kant walking on the stage.

"Hello, soldiers, you are going to set off tomorrow, right? I believe you are very nervous to take such an important task on your shoulders. And today I will only be the final concluding speech. Among them, we still listen to you first Let Captain DeWitt say a few words." Kant hurriedly walked up to the stage to confess.
