Chapter 2: The Search for Napoleon

"Is this the horn of an emergency assembly?" Lin Haoda, whose mind has been tense in an unfamiliar environment, immediately found the meaning of this trumpet from the original memory of this body after hearing the sound of the trumpet outside. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although mercenaries are semi-militarized, basic military training is still carried out after recruits join the army.

In Lin Haoda's fragmented memories, he generally understood the so-called mercenary system of this era.

Unlike the mercenary companies in the 21st century, which have strict systems and detailed military levels and mission categories, mercenaries in this era are actually temporary military organizations!

It is true that most mercenaries have combat experience and have a name in local organizations such as mercenary unions, but mercenaries are very loose 'free men' before signing a contract with their employers, these people may be familiar with each other, but there will never be a strict relationship between superiors and subordinates, when a mercenary sees the mercenary task issued by the lord or even the king, he often does not go to gather his subordinates, but to gather his comrades or win over idle men who want to make money!

Of course, the mercenary who was the first to be notified and pulled people will become the temporary leader in this mission, that is, the so-called mercenary officer, because he has found a profitable deal for the big guys!

In addition to this kind of people, mercenaries with more combat experience and seniority will be supported by the majority of the people, and become temporary 'boss officers' when performing tasks, such officers rarely enforce strict military law against mercenaries who make mistakes, unless a single mercenary seriously endangers the interests of all mercenaries, they will be punished!

As in the Standing Army of Europe, the situation of officers beating and scolding soldiers at will is rare in mercenaries!

Because of this, the morale of mercenaries when fighting has always been very problematic, ** Plunder is not evil, let's not talk about it first, once the battlefield situation is unfavorable, it is easy to rout and flee!

This is the ultimate reason why the mercenary system was replaced by a standing army.

Lin Haoda, who is only 16 years old, is a novice big soldier, so it is naturally impossible to become a small leader of mercenaries......

It's a pity that Lin Haoda at this time is not interested in the mercenary business in this era at all......

Lin Haoda, who heard the sound of the horn, sighed helplessly after pondering for a few seconds and began to put it on......

Being a deserter at this time is undoubtedly joking with his own life, after all, 'Lin Haoda' can be regarded as a person who has received a commission......

The shabby mercenaries have no standard military uniforms at all, Lin Haoda is wearing a shabby leather coat that is common in this era, a pair of leather boots with a hole in the left heel of his left foot, a hole in the toe of his right foot, and the strange smell on the boat-shaped triangular hat placed next to the bed makes Lin Haoda's heart struggle for a long time before putting it on......

Compared to the smoky smell, the key is to make yourself not appear so prominent and be noticed by outsiders!

With the all-out war system, Lin Haoda has an infinite way out, and survival is the most important thing!

After Lin Haoda dressed 'neatly', he picked up the bullet bag and the rusty long-pole flintlock pistol, the gunpowder and lead bullet in the ammunition bag were separated, which was completely different from the paper shell bullet in the movie that was bitten open directly with teeth!

Even the stabbing bars are wooden, which will undoubtedly further reduce the frequency of firing, and if you use too much force when reloading, you can only use your fingers to break the wooden bars...... If you can put your fingers in it!

Of course, for Lin Haoda, who plays with guns, it is not difficult to fiddle with this easy-to-operate flintlock pistol, and the approximate weight of the loaded gunpowder also exists in the memory fragments in this body, and learning to use a flintlock pistol is a basic training course for a mercenary!

"Fighting with this thing in 1789? The European whitelancers are really hard enough, and I don't know how many European whitekees have been blown up by the flintlock pistol to play to death, hehe~" Lin Haoda smiled bitterly and hung the ammunition bag on his belt, picked up the long-pole flintlock pistol and left this place, he never wanted to come back, the damn wooden house that exuded a musty smell, sweat, foot odor and even a slight smell of excrement!

A place where serious mercenaries who came to protect the King of France lived was so 'fresh and refined' that Lin Haoda could not imagine how 'good' the living conditions of those poor people in France must be......

Lin Haoda felt that the taste in the rural pigsty he had seen when he was a child was better than here!

Well, forgive Lin Haoda's ignorance of history, when he went to school, except for physical education class, all other classes were used for sleeping and 'playing'......

This is a 'student' who respects the PE teacher very much!

After opening the only exit of the cabin without even a window, Lin Haoda, who was blinded by a burst of sunlight, squinted his eyes slightly, and immediately, he felt the so-called 'rhythm' of the army in this era......

He felt that he had wasted a lot of time in the cabin, but when he walked out with a long-roded flintlock pistol on his back, the only thing he could see at a glance was the mercenaries dressed in pairs and threes, not much different from the civilians, gossiping and farting, while waiting for his comrades to gather......

Could it be that all the mercenaries in Europe are at this level?

Lin Haoda pretended to be normal and walked around, the scattered military discipline will certainly affect the overall combat effectiveness, but this mercenary can take on the task of defending the French king Louis XVI, no matter how you look at it, it will not be too watery......

In the memory fragments of Lin Haoda's body, he knew that France at this time was one of the European powers!

"By the way, I remember that around this time, there seemed to be a great man in continental France - Napoleon! I don't know if he's still alive......"

The amazing Lin Haoda, who lacked common sense in history, muttered in his heart.

However, I don't know if the three words Napoleon poked the sensitive zone of the all-out war system, and the long-silent all-out war system suddenly reminded Lin Haoda in his heart:

[Napoleon is still alive in the present, killing Napoleon can obtain a large number of history smash points, and permanently increase the reputation level by one level!] 】

Lin Haoda's eyes lit up while pacing, and he asked quietly in his heart: "System, can you determine Napoleon's position at this time?" ”

Although Lin Haoda lacks historical knowledge, he is now in power by the king of France, which is naturally the era when Napoleon is not in power, and he has the impression that Napoleon is the first emperor of France!

Killing an emperor, Lin Haoda never thought about it so much, but killing an 'emperor' who didn't make a fortune, Lin Haoda is still very interested!

After asking, Lin Haoda subconsciously glanced at the card of the cold-blooded killer - Jack the Ripper.

[If Napoleon is in the Paris area, the system can retrieve his specific location, but it will take a certain amount of time, and the historical smash point exchange item cannot be carried out within that time, will the chosen one start retrieving the specific location of Napoleon in the Paris area now?] 】

Lin Haoda glanced at his destitute personal information panel, and replied decisively: "Start retrieving now." ”

"Hey, Lin Haoda, you look in good spirits today." Just as Lin Haoda finished giving an order to the system, a slightly sharp male voice sounded behind his side, and then, a big calloused hand slapped on his shoulder, successfully leaving a greasy mark on Lin Haoda's already unclean leather coat again......

Lin Haoda looked back and saw a white man dressed similarly to himself, slightly thin, but taller than himself, with a pointed mouth and a long face, and brown hair scattered over his shoulders.

Lin Haoda's body is a yellow body, and he is only 16 years old now, so he is naturally not as tall as an adult white man.

I have to say that Caucasians still have some advantages over yellow people in terms of height, Lin Haoda just glanced around, and more than eighty percent of the white mercenaries were taller than him......

Judging from the figure of these Germanic strong men, it can be regarded as material for war......

If this Lin Haoda hadn't been an old mercenary from a distant relative who followed his adoptive parents with a dead face, he would have come to 'make contributions', and he would not have been selected into the German mercenary team at all!

Of course, it can also be seen from here how random and complex the membership of mercenaries is......

The white man in front of him who took the initiative to talk to Lin Haoda was naturally not his best friend or anything, in fact, in the circle of mercenaries, Lin Haoda, a thin yellow boy, was not too popular, if it weren't for the old mercenary who brought him in, Lin Haoda would have been squeezed out long ago!

"Lucas. Podol, is there something wrong with me? ”

Lin Haoda stopped and replied.

The white man named Lucas grinned and showed a brilliant ...... Big Yellow Fang!

"Hehe, Lin Haoda, aren't you curious about the attendance mission of this emergency horn?"

"Oh, not interested." Lin Haoda shrugged his shoulders and turned to walk towards the assembly area.

Lucas. Bodol's expression froze, as if he didn't expect Lin Haoda, a 'little heel' full of heroic fantasy spirit, to ignore him so decisively......

"Hey, hey, wait a minute, Lin Haoda, this task is not simple, I heard that in the downtown area of Paris, the owners of two small factories have died!"

Lin Haoda paused and wondered, "What happened?" ”

Lucas saw Lin Haoda stop, and said with a smug smile: "Hehe, my news is absolutely accurate, this mission is about your life and military merits, so ......"

Lin Haoda looked at Lucas. The classic 'little money' suggestive action in Podol's hand turned his head away again decisively and said, "I'm sorry, no money!" ”

"Eh~ Don't go yet, Lin Haoda, didn't you still have ten Su coins yesterday?"

Lin Haoda didn't bother with this Lucas mercenary who 'trafficked' intelligence this time, he just flipped through the memory fragments in his mind, and found that the original Lin Haoda didn't realize that his details had been touched by Lucas......

Temeow's even a few big boys in his pocket are known to Lucas!

(The soys were the French currency at the time, and in 1789, the revolutionary year of soaring prices, a Parisian worker earned 30 to 40 sousels a day, but sold for 4 sousels per pound of brown bread and 8 souses in the provinces.) )
