From a bird's-eye view from the sky, the expeditionary force walking in the mountains is divided into countless squads distributed like spider webs in the vast mountainous terrain, this expeditionary force numbered more than 5,000, including the reserve unit of the Knights of the El City Defense Garrison Department, the El Junior War College, the Stans College, the El City Wizards Union, the El City Adventure Group Union, the El City Industrial School, The supreme commander of this expeditionary force is Colonel Mastin, who led the 3,000 reserve troops of the Knights of the Garrison Department to form the most basic structure of this expeditionary force.
At the forefront is the reserve force of the Knights, these young warriors belong to the reserve corps of the El City Guard Regiment, the law of the Green Empire stipulates that all male citizens are obliged to serve in the military after reaching the age of sixteen, this large number of guard regiment reserves were also born under this law, many residents of the city of El are worried that after their children join the Legion of the North Wind, there will be various dangers in the next defense against the barbarians on the ice and snow tundra, so the nobles in the city of El in order to preserve the continuation of the family bloodline, so they created such a nominally belonging to the Legion of the North Wind, but the actual control and management rights belong to the city of Eyre, such a reserve, this kind of reserve is actually found in various cities, and it costs a lot of money to buy a place in the guard regiment, and the reserve force of this garrison knight regiment is such a team.
Speaking of which, this kind of army reserve force is very despised by those regular troops, but now such an army is rushing to the front, obviously hearing that the 300,000 army of the North Wind Legion on the front line surrounded tens of thousands of barbarians of the Celtic barbarian tribe between the Cursed Land and the Galloping Horse River, and these people planned to rush to the front line to grab military merits.
In order to be able to disguise the eating image better. Deliberately gathered the student army of the major famous schools in El City and organized some powerful trade unions in El City to participate, and some magicians and adventurers joined, making the lineup of the nondescript temporary army look more gorgeous, but among these organizations, the most disadvantaged is the Chamber of Commerce, they don't just have to contribute. He is also responsible for preparing supplies for the entire team along the way.
It was in such a chaotic situation that the senior management of Stans School resolutely decided to send a team composed of senior students and key teachers to participate in this crusade army, in fact, their idea was to take advantage of this east wind to add a strong stroke to Stans College, and also let the Stans College, which has a deep background, have a historical event worth boasting about and showing off.
The students of Stans College lined up in the rear of the large army, and in just three days, these teenagers, who usually boasted of being the elite of the campus, had already made themselves disgraced. in the laws of the Empire. Women are not required to serve in the military, but there are many people who want to become female warriors by learning combat skills in the academy.
Because the northern provinces were plagued by the barbarian winter slave hunting and hunting campaigns, it was extremely common for women to be more numerous than men in each province, and girls had to take on the responsibility of supporting their families when they grew up, so that many girls would also go to school to learn some war skills. In order to be able to work in some jobs that pay well enough in the future.
Staines College also has a significant number of female students, but not many female students can become elite and participate in the ranks of this expeditionary force. Tracy is one of those schoolgirls. Not only because her father is a very prestigious rapier swordsmanship instructor at Stans Academy, but also because it has a lot to do with her own strength, Tracy is also a sword master like Ryant, her body coordination is very good, and she can easily complete all kinds of extremely difficult movements. Tracy is also a man of the year in Stans College.
At this time, I followed her, and was helplessly pulled by her on the narrow ridge, where the green waves of wheat that rose and fell with the wind moved with our steps, and a few white clouds like cotton candy floated in the blue sky. The breeze blew Tracy's long golden hair, and she reached out to pin the broken hair behind her ear, the delicate leather armor that made her figure stand out. I secretly tried to withdraw my hand, but she grabbed my fingers tightly and did not let go for a moment, she looked back at me deeply, lowered her voice and said in my ear: "Follow me obediently, don't accidentally fall into the ridge, stain your clothes, and finally need me to wash you!"
"I've always had a good sense of balance, Tracy, and I don't think I'm going to fall, just let it go!" I quickly continued her words.
Leon is in the team not far away, he has finally found out that something is not quite wrong in the past few days, Tracy is in front of me, and he will not put on a sister's show, and some things are always competing with me, but he is worried about being scolded by Ryant, and he always takes advantage of Rryant's inattention, and even keeps arguing with people.
"Humph!" Tracy snorted softly.
She quickened her pace on the ridge, and she deliberately walked faster, thinking that this would make me fall on the ridge and make a mess in front of her friends. Tracy is a head taller than me, her legs are very long, and she doesn't take a big step when she runs, but the frequency is extraordinarily large, this kind of pace can only be learned by those who practice using the rapier, and this kind of pace has a unique rhythm, I have begun to feel a little uncomfortable, I was staggered, and I ran very awkwardly, which also made the corners of Tracy's mouth slightly upturned, and he looked very proud.
But after all, she was in the team, even if Trey wanted to run quickly, but she quickly caught up with the team in front, and it was impossible to run past this team to the front, so she could only obediently follow behind the team. Obviously, some of this team were also former students of Rryant, and they had not been in contact with me for the past few days, but they saw that I had been following Lryant, and it was obvious that my identity had spread in the academy, and some of the instructors would also let out a gentle smile when they saw me, and when I was trying to balance my breath and try to follow Tracy's pace and rhythm to run on the ridge, someone in the front team turned back to me and smiled mysteriously, and then he said to Tracy bluntly: " Hey, Tracy, Leon's fool is on fire in the back. You're really not going to go over and comfort him?"
Tracy steadied his breathing, glared at the man fiercely, and then secretly looked at the situation behind him, and saw that not far behind him, sure enough, Leon was constantly looking over, and his face sank and he was about to get angry. But knowing that this place is not easy to get angry no matter what, Tracy continued: "Jia, let's go back!"
"Hey, hey, I'm not afraid of the person who will throw his face at you, you still have to think about how to make up a reason, hide this matter, leave your brother here for a while, and I will take care of it for you." The man stopped Tracy's hand again, but this time Tracy didn't refuse again, but looked at me. said: "Warn you, Albert, don't say useless words in front of Jia, I'll be back in a while!"
The young man, known as Albert, winked at me with a grin, and I saw that he was also a very interesting man, so I was very interested in staying and talking to him. In this boring journey, it is rare to meet such an interesting person. Tracy's weaknesses are clearly felt by him. He knew that Tracy cared more about what he cared about at this time, so he could take Tracy away with a word. It also seemed to know that I didn't really like walking on the ridge with Tracy, so he left me alone.
In the past two days, I have deeply experienced the preferential treatment that I can receive as a teacher's family. The students that Lyant taught would look for an opportunity to give me a kind look, and some would even sneak a honey cookie in my pocket. During this march, although the merchants prepared plenty of food and water, the taste of aged rice was not acceptable to everyone, so the children of the wealthy families would bring some biscuits and other food in their luggage packages and some luncheon meat, and they secretly shared the food. I usually be called to share with me.
"Tracy, this time the vision is really not good, a little willful. It's a pleasure to meet you, my name is Albert, I've heard your name for a long time, but we've never met. Ever since we were at Stans College, Tracy has cut us off because of that kid over there, saying that he was looking for so-called love! Albert said as he laughed so hard that tears flowed from his eyes, as if he thought it was too ridiculous to be a joke.
I asked curiously, "There's nothing wrong with what she said!"
At this time, Albert's turn did not know how to pick up my words, and his mouth opened wide in surprise. Instead, someone next to him said, "Hey, Albert, I heard you're going to open a box of luncheon meat at noon today, and we're all here!"
The voice dissolved the embarrassment, and Albert came back to his senses and said, "Even if I talk too much, it seems that you are really defending Tracy! I am a student of Mr. Ryant again, my name is Albert! At noon, we are going to eat luncheon meat stew with hazel mushrooms, these mushrooms were picked under the golden apple tree yesterday, just try them together!"
"Okay!" I'm always very interested in eating, and I won't refuse delicious food.
In order not to damage the crops in the field, the team had to pass through the entire wheat field, and probably could stop and rest, otherwise Colonel Mastin's order to rest came down, and these people sat on the ridge to rest, afraid that this whole wheat field would suffer, but apparently Albert also invited some of his friends, a box of luncheon meat that was originally enough for one person to eat, and it seemed a little less for several teenagers to share together, even if there were some fresh hazelnut mushrooms prepared, it was slightly insufficient.
But apparently everyone is very good at such a dinner, and the person next to him also took out a pack of air-dried ribs and bacon from his backpack, and then said happily: "It just so happens that I still have a piece of bacon that I haven't eaten, so it's better to cook it together at noon!"
Albert turned his gaze to the oak grove at the end of the wheat field, and after a while said, "Perhaps we should eat some fresh game, I heard that during the last training there was a musk deer caught in the oak grove, and it was said that the meat was roasted and eaten deliciously." I thought maybe we could try our luck in the woods!"
"Those guards are in the forefront, and they have scared away all the game, where can we still hunt!" someone in the back replied.
Albert said: "Go deeper, if you are lucky, you may be able to meet it!" Anyway, it is getting closer and closer to the battlefield, and those reservists are not willing to go any further, and it is estimated that they can only walk through this wheat field today, and they will camp and rest, and if the news from the battlefield in front does not come for a day, we will definitely not act rashly. So we have a lot of time to hunt. ”
There were quite a few complaints in the words, and it seemed that there was a lot of dissatisfaction with the Knights of the Garrison Department.
"Don't complain, let's think about how we can make a good lunch, I've heard that Mr. Ryan brought his youngest son out this time, it looks like it's you, hello, my name is Yveli!" The man also introduced himself very directly, and then said: "We have been Tracy's playmates since we were children, but that guy has only been disliked by us friends who grew up together since he went to school in Staines, and she has her own circle of friends, so we haven't seen each other!"
"Call me Jia, ...... Eveli"
I always felt that Tracy didn't have enough friends, she rarely brought them home, and occasionally the girls or boys who were dressed in ordinary clothes would seem very reserved, preferring to stand outside the door of the villa and wait for Tracy. I always thought it was a little strange, and at first I even thought that Tracy rarely invited her friends to her house because she was guarding against me, but then I gradually realized that she didn't have many friends, and she was a little more civilian.
At this time, I realized that she didn't actually have no friends, but for some reason, those friends who played with her until they were big are now rusty.
But these people are very warm and kind to me, and I can clearly feel this.
I turned my head to look at Lryant, who was walking steadily in the line not far behind, he seemed to encourage me to come out and communicate with these teenagers, maybe in the eyes of him and Fanny, my personality is a little too introverted, I have always liked to hide in the attic for the past few years, and now I have a rare opportunity to meet some peers who are a few years older than me, maybe I can make some friends, Ryant thinks in his eyes: It is because I am too lonely and have no friends that I will go on a trip every year.
Seeing someone take me into their circle was very supportive of that.
...... Beautiful Dividing Line......
Stepping on the damp and rotten leaves of dead trees in the forest, these elites of the Stas School did not know that the sound of dead branches and leaves being trampled off would scare away many small beasts, or make them hide in caves in advance, so walking in the forest, if they can catch prey, they are only a few stupid roe deer.
There were only three of us on this team, Albert, Yvely, and me. The two of them were the same age as Tracy, but Albert was a seventh-level warrior apprentice skilled in the use of longarms, carrying a giant slash behind his back and wearing a suit of chain mail lined with sheepskin soft armor. The sturdy Evely, on the other hand, wears a pair of iron fists, a pair of arm guards with numerous barbs strapped to his wrists, and the same goes to his legs, so he knows at a glance that he is a fighter who is good at hand-to-hand combat.
Evely looked up at the huge oak tree that towered into the sky, and turned to talk to me: "Jia, you're almost old enough to go to school!"
