Chapter 044: The Beginning of the Assault Marine Battalion
Without giving Wendao a chance to refuse, Matyuya led him to the tarmac below. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At this moment, there seemed to be some kind of drill going on on the tarmac, and at the behest of the female general, the signal soldier holding the flag played a string of flags at the Pegasus knight in the air. The Pegasus Knights who received the order immediately turned their horses and formed five triangular formations, which crossed the school field side by side.
The distance between each triangle is almost equal, showing that they have an exceptionally good grasp of spatial distance. And when the female knights in the sky turned back from the other side of the school field, Wen Tao was shocked to find that behind each triangular formation was closely followed by a landing craft. Centered on the slowly moving landing craft, the Pegasus riders performed gorgeous maneuvers such as wearing flowers up and down, circling and staggering, and guided the landing craft to slowly land on the school field in front of them.
"Wow......"
Wen Dao let out a brief sigh, but he couldn't find any other words to express his consternation.
These five landing craft should have been captured in their entirety during the initial battle, these Astronomical Rice were busy grasping the situation of the base, and they didn't care about disposing of them, but they didn't expect that Matyua had already incorporated this batch of interstellar arms under her command, and even began to practice cooperative operations with Pegasus Knights, which was really high enough to break through the sky.
"How did the helmsman solve it?"
Coming back to his senses, Wendao asked Matyuya. The San Vano Empire's assault landing craft is not a game that can be mastered without a master, and even the Starians do not have the technological power to search for boat manuals from the quantum net.
"There are steerers among the captives, and I will single them out to serve the Knights temporarily. ”
"Hey, won't this be a problem?" Wen Dao said in amazement.
"Don't worry, those guys have been trained by me, and every landing craft has a team of knights to follow the town, and they can't do anything. Ma Qiuya confidently assured, and told Wen Dao that in addition to temporarily requisitioning the bandit party as the helmsman, she also arranged for the quick-witted apprentice knight to observe and learn in the passenger seat. Some of them are already able to operate their own boats into the air, and it won't take long to replace them when they become proficient.
"Of course, if those thieves are trained, they can stay in the landing craft and continue to be their deputies. No matter what, eating the food of the Wang family is much more face-saving than being a thief. The female general told Wen Dao. The more than 200 people who were captured and subdued, except for a few who had special skills, were sent to the Order's makeshift training camp, where they would compensate for their previous misdeeds with hard labor in clearing the wasteland for decades to come.
"After all, Liensta's manpower is precious, and it can't be wasted. The female general added with a sneer.
“…… I see. Wen Dao couldn't help but express subtle sympathy for the bandits who distributed the training camp, and at the same time refreshed his perception of female generals again. It must be admitted that some people are indeed born generals, and whether it is force, popularity, or command, they are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"It's worthy of being the eldest sister, and it's really beautifully handled. Wen Dao nodded admiringly.
"Big sister, the first ghost!, after you took the base, you hid in the room all day and pretended to be dead, and the old lady had no choice but to help you clean up the aftermath, okay!?" The female general raised her fist angrily, Wen Dao hid behind Fili with a snort, and the Pegasus Knight who was pushed out was full of panic and didn't know what to do.
"Bastard ......" The female general reluctantly lowered her fist, but the harsh gaze she threw made someone's heart tremble. "Don't think you're okay, there's a notice from the bachelor asking you to go back to Leubek City as soon as possible. ”
"Back to Leubek City?" Wen Dao was stunned. "What's the matter?"
"Of course there is. The corners of Matyuya's mouth curled in a mocking arc. "It's rare for Lord Lord to send an agent to our insignificant earthly world, including this suppression of the snake nest, and the Bachelor must have accumulated quite a lot of opinions to reflect with the 'honorable' dragon envoy, right?"
Listening to the female general call out "Honorable Dragon Envoy" in a tone full of disgust, Wen Dao couldn't help but shudder deeply. Although he thought that the mission should come to an end, it seemed too early to draw conclusions.
The Xianlong King is the lord of the Jade Star Domain, and the identity of the envoy of the Dragon Palace and the acting official of the lord makes Wen Dao have no position to refuse, so he had to accept the commission of the court bachelor, and returned to Lacek City by landing craft on the same day.
The capture of five intact landing craft from the Viper Bandits, plus the one that had been completely unlocked by Wen Dao before, the Lensta Knights received a total of six Empire-made assault landing craft. With the standard of carrying thirty Marine Knights per landing craft, it was almost enough to form a team of Assault Knights.
Of course, it will take a lot of work for the Lensta knights to fully grasp the armed characteristics of the landing craft, but Wen Dao has already stuffed the boat manual and the tactical tutorial on the base camp into the card terminal before leaving, and handed it to Matyuya to ponder and study. I believe that with the execution of the red-haired heroine, the day of fruitful results will not be too far away.
Alec, a heavily armored knight, was wounded in a fight with the colonel, so he returned to Leubek City with Fili, who was serving as a bodyguard, in a landing craft. With gratitude, Wendao specially put Alek in the helm seat on the way back and taught him in detail the various matters of operating the landing craft.
"Oh-oh! Knight Alek, grateful!"
The fact that the dragon envoy himself taught the art of boat manipulation made Alec grateful. Conscious of risking his life, the heavily armored knight poured unprecedented enthusiasm into learning, and by the time the landing craft flew over the city of Leubek, it slipped almost as far as the imparter.
(In other words, does this count as tampering with the process of civilization...... )
Wen Tao witnessed the moment of the birth of the Assault Marine Cavalry with a subtle and complicated mood, but he didn't notice the envious look of the Pegasus Rider behind him. Alec, who was in high spirits, flew straight towards the royal city with his landing craft sweeping through the streets, witnessing the landing craft rowing across the sky, and the inhabitants of the streets below let out joyful cheers, and many even knelt down and prayed to the sky with tears.
"Thank you for the blessings of the Holy Dragon!"
"I love you!"
"Long live the Knights! Long live Liensta!"
When used as the swords of the Viper bandits, these Imperial landing craft caused great panic among the inhabitants of Leubek City. However, under the deliberate arrangement of the court scholars, the good news that the dragon envoy led the knights to successfully defeat the Viper Bandits has spread throughout the streets and alleys of Leubek City. It's just that for the people of Lübek, who have been bullied by vipers for a long time, it is not easy to believe in the official good news.
However, after seeing the victorious parade of Pegasus knights and viper warships, the people of Lübeck finally accepted the idea that the holy dragon once again waved its glorious wings to dispel the dark clouds that enveloped the city of Lübeck, and then fell into a frenzy of worship and gratitude for the holy dragon. In the midst of the frenzied celebrations that spread throughout the city, the number of people who went to the Temple of Forget-me-not to worship the stone carvings of the holy dragon hit a new high in a hundred years.
In such an atmosphere, the fierce blade, which symbolized terror in the past, was also regarded as an embellishment of the glory of the holy dragon. Under the cheers of the people of Lübeck, the landing craft flew to the royal city. A group of Pegasus knights flew out of the tower, guiding the landing craft and slowly landing in the atrium of the castle.
"Welcome back, Lord Dragone. ”
A court lady with flaxen-colored hair and a delicate appearance but for some reason full of fatigue between her eyebrows stepped forward and saluted Wen Dao in a respectful voice.
"In the Lower Serena, she was ordered to serve as an assistant to the Bachelor. Lord Dragon, the Bachelor has been waiting for you for a long time, please come with me. ”
Led by a court lady who called herself Serena, Wendao and Fili walked through the cloister decorated with elaborate stone carvings to the secretary's room on the second floor of the castle.
According to Serena, the secretariat is the place where Dai Yang, a court scholar, assists the monarch in handling government affairs, but what puzzles Wen Dao is that not only is the door locked, but also guarded by two heavily armed knights on each side of the gate. However, judging from the position in which the knights stood, it was more like defending against someone indoors than defending against an attack from outside.
"The bachelor hasn't 'left' the secretary's office, has he?"
Serena confirmed to the captain of the knights guarding that Wen Tao was not sure if he was too careful, and he always felt that the tone of the squire seemed to have a rhythm of gnashing teeth. And it wasn't until she received an affirmative answer from the captain of the knights that Serena's stiff expression relaxed slightly, and she reported to Fumidao with a relieved expression.
"The bachelor is inside, Lord Dragon, please wait. ”
As the Gatekeeper stepped aside, Serena took out her personal key and opened the brass lock on the door. As the two heavy wooden doors opened with a rattling sound, the curious Wendao was able to witness the scene in the secretary's room.
"Wow......"
The grilles on the four walls of the secretary's office were filled with various scrolls and papers, both of quality and quantity enough to make Wendao exclaim. With amazement, Wen Dao moved his gaze to the thick desk in the center of the room, and saw that there was a mountain of paperwork piled up on the desk, but the owner of the desk was nowhere to be found—the window behind the desk was wide open, and a rope made of curtains and cloth was woven through the window.
As the door opened, the originally sealed secretary's room began to be flooded in. The strong wind blowing from the window blew the papers on the desk, and sprinkled the magnificent paper rain in the secretary's office.
"Actually...... Slipped away again......"
Serena, who looked up at the rain of papers, had a pale face, clenched her fists, and her slender body exuded a ghostly aura. Wen Dao immediately took a step back, and Fei Li also subconsciously put on a posture of vigilant guard.
However, in the next second, Serena exerted amazing self-control, and turned back to apologize for the fact that the court master had left for the time being, and begged the dragon envoy to wait here for a while, and she would bring the master back "as quickly as possible".
"I didn't ...... It's okay, don't be in a hurry, you look for it slowly. ”
Forced by Serena's momentum, Wen Dao immediately said that he could wait here until he was old. After saluting Wendao, Serena rushed out of the secretary's office with a fierce force, and left a few seconds later with the panicked guards and knights. Wen Dao, who listened to the footsteps in the distance, exhaled and exchanged a sympathetic look with Fili.
"Miss Serena, it's really hard......"
"yes, anyway, let's clean it up first, right?"
Wendao sighed and approached the open window, while Fili looked down and picked up the pieces of paper scattered on the floor. When he closed the window, Wen Dao's gaze swept over the edge of the window frame, and then he let out a "huh" and squinted his eyes. I saw a small note in an inconspicuous position on the edge of the window frame, and a line of phrases was written in dragon script on the small note......
