Chapter Forty-Seven: The Chief Centurion
Through the gap in the shield, I could clearly see that the guy named Guy was sneering and throwing the stone in his hand, and the eagle-like eyes were staring at me all the time.
"Watch your location! Exercise! Could it be that the soldiers of the Seventh Legion, who were so highly valued by Aetius, could not even put the most basic formations in place? Chief Centurion Guy rebuked, and then a flying stone slammed in, and thanks to my quick eyes, my shield jerked down, blocking the flying stone.
"Dang!"
I only felt the shield in my hand sink, and I saw the stone fall at my feet in response, I gritted my teeth, and secretly cursed in my heart for selling a batch, but my body did not dare to make any radical moves. I can only follow the trumpeter's trumpet to move forward step by step!
"Hah, good block!"
What I didn't expect was that the stone was smashed into the air, and the guy didn't have a discouraged and dissatisfied reaction, but applauded and cheered, and listened to him continue: "Okay, new boy, you have successfully saved your precious life with your reaction!" ”
I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and through the shield, I saw that bastard bending down to pick up stones! The nerves I had just relaxed a little bit tightened again, and this guy was still looking at me, and it was over, this guy had such an accurate idea, and I was afraid that I would be like the poor worm next to me who was bleeding from the nose when I got another headshot! Thinking so, I hurriedly hid my whole body behind the shield, ready to take the blow of the stone again!
"Dang!"
Again, but this time the target of the flying stone was not me, but the soldier on the other side, and I wondered which unlucky man had caught this guy's attention. Fortunately, the soldier was clever enough to block his murderous flying stone, but then he heard the chief centurion Guy scolding at the top of his throat again.
"Hey! Idiot, are you just watching my moves? Dare to poke your head out to see! Why don't you come to me without going out of the army to see it! Stupid thing! "The more Guy talked, the more angry he became, and at first he paced back and forth with the stones, looking here and there for the weaknesses of our tortoiseshell formation, such as the slack soldiers. But after all, he is only one person, and we are a large phalanx formed by several small phalanxes, densely packed with shields, which makes people a little overwhelmed at first glance, not everyone's actions in the formation can be 100% standardized in the movement, and it is even more difficult to correct. It's like smashing a gopher, a dozen pits are already a little overwhelming, not to mention a huge phalanx composed of hundreds of people?
Guy poked his head out and looked up, he looked to the left, and the person on the right was a little slack, and to the right, the person on the left was slackened again. I can understand this kind of disorganization and undiscipline, and I can explain why there are so many of these ten-masters, it is completely a patchwork team!
"You guys, oh, son of a bitch!"
Guy was furious, pointing at us and yelling, "If it weren't for the fact that there was no one in the army and I hated those barbarians, I would have broken your legs!" Oh my God, how did you slackers survive on the battlefield! It was useless to say anything, he picked up all the stones under his feet, didn't care whether he hit anyone or not, closed his eyes and just threw them, which was even more "ping-pong" in the military formation. Soon, all the stones in his arms were thrown away, and the scope of such supervision was still neither high nor low.
Guy was lost in thought, and I could clearly see him with his head down, obliviously picking at his freshly shaved beard on his chin, and I didn't know what to pick at it. But even so, I didn't dare to relax, for fear of falling into this guy's suspicious plan. When the time comes, after eating a stone from him, you will really understand why the flowers are so red!
"Hah! I've figured out how to clean you up, you bunnies! ”
It had only been a moment before I heard the chief centurion laugh very, exaggerated from his big mouth, and it sent chills down my spine. I saw him turn around and whisper a few words to the trumpeter's ear, what was so wonderful to say, and the red light of the trumpeter's music was full of light, and he glanced at us with a wicked smile. When he had finished speaking, the trumpeter nodded again and again, and trotted all the way out of the camp gate.
"Oh no, this guy won't have any bad ideas!"
Andrew was vaguely uneasy behind me, and the others around me were also talking to each other in private, and I think the main topic was to guess what kind of medicine this guy had in his gourd.
"Alright, alright!"
Then he saw that Guy swept away his original gloomy face, and then looked at us with a smile, stretched out his hand to signal us to relax, and continued: "Put down your shields, I declare now, it's time to rest!" ”
But when this command came, no one responded, and all of them held their shields and did not move, and no one wanted to be the first to eat the crab.
"How?"
Guy looked at us with a puzzled expression: "I let you rest, why don't you listen to me?" When he asked this, no one in the phalanx responded, and even the few leaders who were standing in front didn't have the courage to move.
"That's right." Guy laughed again, "I don't have much dissatisfaction with your current behavior as it was just now, but now, hmph, it's too late to tell you!" Guy clapped his hands, turned to a stool and sat down, looked at us and asked again, "I say, are you going to rest?" ”
Now that everyone had sat down, it seemed that there was no great threat, and the centurions who took the lead got up and walked out of the group, turned back to us and shouted an order: "Phalanx, rest in place!" ”
"Whew!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and one after another put down their shields, and I rubbed my shoulders, which were already a little sore, still wondering what the commander who had gone out had done.
There were a lot of people in the team who sat down, and most of them should be thinking the same as me, that is, thinking about what this inhuman guy was doing in private, and he was so angry that he was thunderous just now, and in the blink of an eye, he was smiling. In other words, this guy, what a villain!
No, after only a few minutes of rest, the sound of rolling wheels rumbled outside the door, and the sound shook people's hearts slightly. All eyes were on the camp gate, and it seemed that it was time to witness what the hell had been done to that Guy.
"Now you can see it, Luga, you have to be careful."
Andrew didn't forget to remind me behind me at this time, I don't know what to say, anyway, let's take a look first, and see what big gift this guy Guy has given us?
