Chapter XVII: Investigation

According to my brother, the most suitable time for reconnaissance is after midnight, and two or three o'clock in the morning is the time when the sentries are more relaxed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"You'll lead the team tonight."

"What? I don't understand anything. ā€

"I will give you an adjutant, he is not a nobleman, so he can only be an adjutant. But he has a lot of experience and has been through a lot of battles. ā€

It turns out that the nobility has such privileges, and everyone is different at the starting line at birth.

After dinner, Berlin Persian took Days to report for duty.

The people in the team are all old fritters, disheveled, some are smoking pipes, some are wiping weapons, and some are sleeping in beds.

Seeing that there were two noble lords wearing cloaks coming to inspect, especially the leader in front was the young master of Berlin Persia, an upstart in the army who had recently risen rapidly, the leader of this squad immediately began to gather troops.

"Quick, get up, you slacker! Hurry up and put out the smoke, damn it, don't throw it next to the firewood! Your hat is crooked! This way, this way! ā€

"Count from left to right!"

"One!"

"Two!"

"Three!"

……

The lieutenant looked a little old, with a little wrinkles on his forehead and a little gray sideburns.

"Report to the sir, the 105th reconnaissance detachment has been assembled, a total of 20 people, to 20 people."

"Good. This is the newly appointed captain of your squad, and I wish you a safe return tonight. I had to leave beforehand. ā€

Lord Persia of Berlin simply left, leaving Lord Dyce, who had not yet fully adapted.

"......" Days felt like he had to say something.

"Uh-ah-ah, everyone, good evening."

ā€œā€¦ā€¦ā€

"Have you all eaten dinner?"

"Eat! Sir! The adjutant replied loudly.

"My name is Dais Kellner, and I'm at Cellon Castle in the morning, and I've just arrived. At night...... At night...... As a matter of fact...... Hmm......" Days looked at the lieutenant with some pleading.

The adjutant understood: "Report sir, I have something to report to you. ā€

"Ah, yes."

"Okay." The adjutant walked up to Days and whispered, "All you have to do is say that everyone disbands first, and I'll tell you about tonight's mission." ā€

"Everyone, ah, why don't we disband first?"

Deis's negotiating tone confused the soldiers in the queue, because they were not receiving orders that they were used to. So Dyce's words didn't work immediately.

"Stand upright, take a break, and dissolve. Get ready! There was another roar, and the adjutant disbanded all 19 soldiers, leaving Days and him behind.

"Are you new to the army?"

"Ah, yes, I'm really sorry that I didn't understand anything about the army, but I was sent here. I don't even know how to direct everyone to complete the mission. ā€

It is very common for the son of a nobleman to be arranged to mix experience in the army, accumulate the army, and then buy off the relationship after retiring from the army to mix an official and a half-position, and this adjutant is not the first time he has encountered it, so he is also calm, not to mention that he met such a "tender" person this time.

"Ah, where, where, such things, I am used to it...... Do you have any special skills? ā€

Originally, he was going to hear about such feats as "Latin dance" and "gardening", which had nothing to do with combat, but Days gave him a surprise.

"Magic, I know some magic."

"Oh, you're a venerable magician?"

"Still in school, hehehe."

"Ah, if there is any danger at that time, we will protect you, you can put a few magic in the back."

"What kind of magic is better?"

"This, how to say it, I'm a rough man, but I can't say anything about it when I see the honorable magicians in the army release those magics that look like miracles from afar."

I guess it's really magic. Probably the uncle in front of him thought that he was a man who could release powerful magic like those army magicians...... Feeling so stressed when you were in Dayston.

Hopefully, a giant spell will help them a little bit.

"That...... When I get to the battlefield, what do I need to do, how do I command everyone to act? ā€

"Well...... adjutant said, scratching his head, a little embarrassed, "could you please keep the composure of a good nobleman at that time?" ā€

"Huh?"

For this task, Days really didn't know what he was going to do.

Listen to the adjutant's meaning, as long as he keeps a good sitting posture on the horned zebra and doesn't panic, he will take care of the rest.

It's like, "Just don't make a mess and don't be a burden to us." ā€

In fact, this team usually does not have a captain, and when there is no captain, it is the adjutant who is responsible for these things. In the position of captain, there are often some aristocratic children who are mixed with experience, and it is not a joke to ask those noble children who don't know anything to command the reconnaissance team. So just ask those captains not to mess around, it's really that simple.

Days didn't figure it out, so he was still in the clouds.

Seeing everyone napping by the fire, he also found a relatively empty place to sleep. The adjutant thoughtfully found a relatively clean pillow for Dyce, so that Dyce could sleep a little more comfortably.

By the fire, it was warm and comfortable, and Days fell asleep before he knew it. I got up very early today, and I was called up by my brother from the bed when it was very dark, and Sophia was still shrunk in the bed at that time, and Days saw Sophia's sleeping face for the first time, well, I was probably really tired recently, and Sophia was not woken up by my brother.

There are many stars in the sky, and the moon is not visible tonight. But it's probably time to take a break now.

In the dream, Days dreamed that school was going back to school and saw John's big guy on his knees proposing to his sister Anna. Ah, so hateful, how could my sister marry such a guy!

Just as he was about to step forward and teach him a good lesson, Days was woken up.

"Master Magician, wake up, captain, wake up, we're leaving, wake up quickly." It was the adjutant's voice.

Someone on the side made a foolish idea: "Why don't you bring a basin of water?" ā€

"Shhhh

Days woke up and slowly sobered up his mind: "Please get a basin of water, I want to wash my face and sober up." ā€

"Okay, sir, wait a minute."

Soon the water was brought in, it was very clear and smelled sweet. But the expressions of the soldiers looking at the basin of water made Deis a little strange, could there be something wrong with this water?

Finding the puzzled look in Dyce's eyes, the adjutant hurriedly explained: "That's the case, Master Dyce." ā€

"Just call me Dyce."

"Ah, Dyce...... Captain," the lieutenant still uses his official position to show his honorific title for insurance, "The water for washing his face is shared by everyone, and it is a little dirty, and this water is the drinking water that is rationed every day." ā€

"......" Days was a little surprised, and immediately excused himself, "Ah, no need! I can't use this water. ā€

Days resolutely refused, and the water was put back. But Days asked for an empty basin.

What is the use, the 20 people all looked at the aristocratic young master in front of them strangely, looking very young, always a little nervous, it looked like he was only 13 or 14 years old.

Days concentrates and begins to communicate with the elements around him and gather the water element within it. Droplets of water appeared and fell from above the basin one after another. After a minute, the water in the basin is enough to wash your face. Only then did Days wash his face with peace of mind: "Let's go, let's go." ā€

Days is a beautiful hand, and everyone knows that their new captain is a magician. As a result, everyone's confidence was very high, and they felt that no matter how difficult the reconnaissance mission was, there would be no problem. In the future, when you eat, you can also talk to the rest of the team about how you once worked with a magician. When I think about it, I think it's a glorious thing, and when I go home from the army, I can still tell my wife and children, as well as those in the village who have not seen the world.

The magician I worked with was still very young, and he didn't have any shelves, so he would use magic to conjure water by himself in order to wash his face. He must be powerful, and such a thing is simple for him, as few have heard of a magician doing such a thing.

The team set off, and after coming out of the castle, everyone arranged Days in the middle of the team, which was to better protect Days.

This time, I didn't worry that everyone would be punished if Dyce was hurt, but I sincerely wanted to protect Dyce.

Tonight's mission is to reconnoiter the movement on the front line and see if there is any movement on the side of the military fortress in the kingdom of Kaunki.

The lieutenant was a veteran, and as soon as he left the castle, he led everyone down the river with the wind in order to maximize the stealth of the horned zebra. Days just needs to be quiet and not speak and maintain the "composure of the nobility".

After more than half an hour, the team managed to approach its target.

It's a town over there, and there is no castle built like the Kingdom of DiCasna.

But the town is militarized. Or, it's more like a bunch of military tents, surrounded by a fence on the outside.

There is a small hill on the side, but there are sentinels there.

The adjutant and two other soldiers sneaked up on them, knocked them unconscious, and gave them some blood by the way, which, although not fatal, could also allow them to be lucky to get out of the battlefield.
