Chapter 102: John and Jon (3)
Make the best use of things and make the best use of talents.
Lelouch strictly adhered to this arrangement, and behind all the seemingly warm feelings, there was always nothing more than a string of cold numbers, all the migration hardships experienced by Jiao's camp, all the life and death, in Lelouch's Horn Fort, it was just a few strings of cold numbers, and then it was marked with a more cold and simple number: 467!
Camp 467 has three reserve soldiers.
The two Johns, who were reassured, went back happily, but they glanced at Jiao En with a little envy before parting, and from this moment on, the trajectory of their lives began to change.
John will become a mobilizer for training, and Jiao, if the assessment is passed, then he will directly skip the process of the mobilization of the standing soldier and directly enter the knight squire, even if it is the Terran of Middle-earth, there are not too many people like the knight squire, especially when Lelouch suddenly needs to expand the army on a large scale, the knight squire, the reserve of the knight, is even rarer.
The knight who led the team pulled out his sword from the hand, the sonorous sound of steel rubbing against the stone, very penetrating, Jiao En took the long sword handed over, waved a few sword flowers according to the sword moves in his memory, and took a deep breath to indicate that he was ready.
Of course, the knight will not attack with all his strength, after all, Jiao En has only been a knight squire for two months, and the knight compares it according to his expected Jiao En level.
Stabbing, chopping, chopping.
The simple three moves are extremely proficient and powerful under years of practice, and these simple three moves completely suppressed Jiao En, but fortunately, the two months that Jiao En was a knight's squire can be regarded as a wholehearted exercise, although embarrassed, Jiao En still withstood the knight's attack.
"Very good, you are still very good, you can go back and clean up now, your family will be proud and happy because you fought for the Son of God. ”
...
After a day's rest, John's camp finally headed for the settlement under the escort of the convoy, and the escorting troops did not send them all to the settlement, but only sent them to the garrison territory before leaving, and these vehicles were also given to John and them.
After all, with so many supplies on your own back, you can't be tired to death.
However, it is only some board carts, not including the horses that are towed, and the horses are not rich at all, especially in the north, which is a strict and undeveloped place, and the vast majority of the horses in Leluxiu's hands are purchased from the west and south, and the number is too small, and it is not enough to form a cavalry, let alone use it for consignment.
John's group was located closer to the core area, and although they would send the team to leave after they entered the garrison territory, they would be supplied by the supply station at a fixed location all the way through, and although they had been on the road all the way, they never went hungry or suffered from the cold.
Even on a rainy night, under the protection of the tent designed by Lelouch, John and his party had already thrown themselves to the ground for the five bodies that Lelouch admired, and the huge difference in life before and after was that Father Del's mission went exceptionally smoothly, even more smoothly than when he was poor and hopeless.
At this time, even if Father Del asked them to die for Lelouch, I believe that there will be many young people in the team who will happily go, and sometimes, religion can really make people do a lot of incredible things.
Father Del walked at the front of the line, although there was now a spare cart, but was completely rejected by Father Del, and resolutely gave way to the old and weak in the team, this style naturally won the favor of the crowd, I have to say, can play the religion around, can play the hearts of the people the same.
"Priest~Priest!"
In the midst of the crowd, a young man in front of him ran back quickly, his face full of excitement:
"It's here, we've arrived, and it's the village road ahead!"
The young men brought the news that the team had been waiting for day and night, and they had finally reached the finish line.
The so-called village road is actually a small road leading to each place next to the main road, such a small road is extremely simple, just use a cow to hold a large stone mill to press out one, the specifications of the road can be said to be not simple.
After all, in the governance norms formulated by Lelouch, the first priority of the activated village is to repair the road after solving the basic housing and living conditions, which is not only to strengthen the central government's control over the locality, but also to speed up the development of the village.
It was noon, and it stands to reason that the procession should stop to rest and cook in a pot, but the crowd of people, seeing that the end was imminent, did not stop at all, and under the leadership of Father Del, accompanied by the bright sun and blue sky, they broke away from the avenue and walked into the village road, and at the junction of the village road and the main road, a sign made a sign:
"To Village 467!"
The village road is not long, the group walked for only three hours, and a village that was obviously only built appeared in the eyes of everyone, because of the scarcity of manpower, the perfect standard of the village was lowered again and again, and now it has become only responsible for the construction of the village road, the foundation of the house, these two basic facilities, in addition, that is, the village church and the village chief's longhouse have been built, one belongs to the spiritual management area, and the other belongs to the secular management area, and at this time, their village chief has been waiting for them at the entrance of the village.
"Welcome, welcome, welcome home!"
The village chief did not need much work, nor did he need too much knowledge, he only needed absolute obedience to the central government, so these veterans became the most ideal basic managers for Leluxiu.
Although the crowd felt very unfamiliar with this village chief, the appointment of Lelouch gave him supreme authority, and the crowd saluted their village chief with a little awe.
Perhaps seeing the uneasiness of the crowd, the village chief smiled:
"Okay, everyone will have time to get to know each other in the future, everyone should come to me first and get the house number to their own home, these days you don't have to rush to plow the land, first repair your own house, the materials and foundation are ready, everyone helps each other to build, and you can't go back for a few days!"
In the village chief's grinning tone, the crowd breathed a sigh of relief, at least this village chief was not too harsh.
At this time, the village still looks a little cold, except for a two-storey square village chief's longhouse, there is also a small chapel with a spire, Del looked at the building in front of him with satisfaction, although the church is small, but it is made of wood and bricks, which looks extremely strong and solemn.
How can it not be exciting that for the monks of the church, who have been oppressed by the White City, have regained their official sermons for the first time in a century?
