Chapter Fifty-Five: Commander of the Light Pole

Because the war was tight, the four of them began to set off towards their destination after receiving their own orders. The troops to which Wang Yuan and Xiao Jingru belonged to www.biquge.info had already opened the front line, so they could just go to the front line to report for duty, and the troops assigned by Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng were still stationed in Qingyun City, so they could only part ways.

Along the way, riding two excellent thousand-mile horses, wearing standard military uniforms that only belonged to the battalion commander, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng were in a good mood. Both of them have not been in the army for a long time, and it is not easy to achieve such an achievement, and to become the commander of a battalion is already a powerful officer, and the ambitions in their respective hearts can be displayed together.

Half a day's journey, the two soon rushed to their upcoming Qingyun City, Qingyun City is located in the middle of Beiyue Kingdom, as the second largest city in Beiyue Kingdom, the population and prosperity here are not comparable to the small border fortress cities like Qingshi City.

According to the instructions on the assignment, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng directly came to the camp stationed outside Qingyun City to report, which was the first and second battalions under the Fourth Wing, and now that Wang Yuan has served as the wing leader of the Fourth Wing, then the two of them have become Wang Yuan's subordinates.

But when Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng happily rushed to the barracks, the scene in front of them made their hearts feel like a basin of cold water was poured on them, and they were half cold in an instant.

There are only a dozen tattered tents as far as the eye can see, and even if ten soldiers live in one tent, there are only one or two squadrons stationed here, which is a far cry from the commander of a battalion they have appointed.

With suspicions in their stomachs, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng also sped up the speed on their feet and rushed towards the camp, no matter what the situation was, the two of them had to ask clearly before making plans.

"Stop, the barracks are heavy, and idlers are not allowed to enter." As the two approached, a squad leader who was on duty outside the barracks dutifully stopped the two and scolded loudly.

Regarding this, Ye Wen and Lin Chufeng didn't say much, and directly took out their own orders, and the military seal on it was naturally the best evidence to prove the identities of the two.

"See the battalion commander." After a brief look at the order, the squad leader immediately gave a standard military salute, and then said respectfully to the two.

"Is this the camp for the 1st and 2nd battalions?" With doubts, Ye Wen asked a little impatiently.

"Report sir, here it is." The squad leader replied in a very definite tone.

"What about the rest of the people in the camp?" Since they weren't looking for the wrong place, it was a matter of the barracks, so Ye Wen continued to ask.

"All the officers and soldiers of the second battalion are here, and the brothers of the first battalion escorted a batch of military rations to the front line, and they have not yet returned." For his future commander, this squad leader also seems to be flattering.

"You're saying you're the only ones in the entire second battalion." This time, before Ye Wen could speak, Lin Chufeng on the side exclaimed directly.

In fact, it was no wonder that Lin Chufeng was so surprised, because he was appointed as the commander of the second battalion, and Ye Wen belonged to the first battalion.

On the side, Ye Wen's face was also not good-looking, and it could be judged from the words of this squad leader that the situation in his first battalion was bound to be not much stronger, or even worse.

"Isn't this the formation of a battalion? So there will only be so few people? For such a situation, Lin Chufeng asked eagerly.

"The first and second battalions of our fourth wing were originally stationed in Black Rock City, but it has now been occupied by the Lanxi army, and our two battalions suffered heavy casualties when defending the city, even those who survived were later incorporated into other battalions, only our two squadrons maintained their original formation and were ordered to rest here." The squad leader replied fifteen-ten.

"How so?" After hearing this, Lin Chufeng couldn't help but let out a long sigh, he could be considered to have completely understood the current situation, and he only got the false title of a light pole commander for a long time.

Although Lin Chufeng turned out to be a squadron leader, but the men and horses under him were all bandits with amazing combat effectiveness, this time, in order to be able to take office smoothly, he left the original people in the front line, but in exchange for such a group of defeated generals, how could such a loss-making deal not make Lin Chufeng annoyed.

And Ye Wen also had a feeling of being fooled, if the other party was not his Uncle Xiao, he might really have the urge to open his mouth and scold his mother. However, the reality still has to be faced, Ye Wen is not a person who can only complain.

"Why don't you go to the draft?" Since the establishment of the first and second battalions was retained, that was to say, they could recruit and replenish the soldiers on their own, Ye Wen immediately asked in a substantive manner.

And when he came, Ye Wen had already noticed that the scale of this Qingyun City was very large, not to mention that there should be a population of more than 100,000, and it should not be difficult to recruit two battalions of troops from these population bases! Ye Wen thought almost instinctively.

"How could it be that it hasn't been recruited, but now that the war in North Vietnam is tight, this Qingyun City alone has already recruited soldiers twice, and now there is really no one who wants to join the army." In the face of reality, the squad leader said a little frustratedly: "If you want to raise all the soldiers, I'm afraid there is no other way than to catch the strong men." ”

"We must not arrest strong men and force the people to join the army." After hearing this, Ye Wen immediately vetoed, he had just come down from the battlefield, and he clearly knew what cohesion meant for a force.

It is true that the soldiers can be temporarily replenished by catching strong men, but a forcibly mixed army is like a plate of scattered sand, and there will be no combat effectiveness at all.

But then again, in a war that may die at any time, except for a few enthusiastic people, where are so many people willing to take the initiative to join the army. can't recruit soldiers, the two of them are such bare-bones commanders, how can they go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, protect their families and defend the country, and create a meritorious career.

"Uncle Xiao, Uncle Xiao, you really left a problem for your nephew!" Regarding such a situation, Ye Wen only shook his head and said to himself.

"Let's go in first!" The dilemma in front of him is not something that can be solved in a day, nor can it be solved, so Lin Chufeng suggested next to him.

"Well, let's settle down first!" Without his previous enthusiasm, like Lin Chufeng, Ye Wen's words also had a sense of decadence.

thought that when they arrived here, they could lead the soldiers and horses to the front line and kill the enemy, but the facts clearly told the two that their ideas were too simple and naïve.
