"O endless plains, when will we get to Transvania?" Enduring blisters on the soles of her feet and poor food, Lorraine, who was dirty like a beggar, complained again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

For the mage who was weak and had no means of transportation, he had never considered the "No. 11 bus" for a long journey, and after barely walking for three days, Lorraine could no longer stand the torture of inferior roads, and maintained the earth elemental guard at all costs, sitting on a specially shaped stool to rest.

"Hell, can't you think about us if you can still rest!? There are also earth element mounts that are too shabby, and they can't block the wind and sand and the sun, do you want to make pure natural slate burning? Sam slumped into the seat of the other earth elemental, responding weakly.

He had a point, but the consequences of angering the mage were serious - so Sam's mount sped up a bit, and he ran forward howling all the way, and of course the sand was even more upset to the soldiers.

"Lorraine, stop playing, hurry up and contact Irene to see if we have gone the wrong way." The pale-faced uncle said, "Those scout brigades are really unreliable, and it is very likely that they will take us into the bandits' den again." ”

"Damn it, I'll contact her right away, uncle, how far are we from Transvania?"

"I really don't know, if the map hadn't gone wrong, we would have walked halfway down the road to the vicinity of the bridge, but now......" The uncle spread his hands, saying that he didn't know what to say.

"I said don't talk to the two of you, look at the soldiers, the tongues are sticking out, you're lucky to have elemental travel, I'm going to ride a horse to chase those deserters!" Taiwen, who rode from behind, looked unhappy, Lorraine turned his head to look over, the soldiers were on the so-called highway, stripped off their shirts and panting, carrying weapons or everything, and their faces were wrapped around the shirts they took off to protect themselves from wind and sand, and the whole person was surrounded by sweat and dust, it looked like the earth element troops were marching, but the smell was a little strange.

"Lorraine, there's bad news for you." An Elin's voice came from among the carrier pigeons, "The scouts who led the way have gone the wrong way again, and there are hundreds of bandits a kilometer ahead of us, slaughtering those unlucky ones. ”

Quiet, very quiet, several officers looked at each other a few times, and the weak Lorraine sighed, "Combat preparation, there are bandits ahead!" ”

……

After staying near the town of Milan for a long time, the three mages who were fanatical about studying magic armor, uh, well, two mages and a little mentor finally made fifty sets of first-generation armor, and then led the army to carnival over there, and the anxious Translonian side sent messengers from time to time to ask them to go, and they were always dragged.

Eventually, Crown Prince Baron wrote a letter to reappoint Lorraine and others as commanders of the Seventh Legion, promising by the way that they would agree to pay for employment as long as they set off now, and privately agreeing to Lorraine's dealings with Josephine.

At this time, Lorraine led the troops on the road slowly, but unfortunately the scouts under the quality always couldn't understand the map, and led the large army to the bandits' dens or guerrilla bases again and again, and had to go to war directly, the results were good, and the captured prisoners were all thrown into the punishment camp as cannon fodder, and a lot of gold and silver treasures were also obtained, all of which were sent down as military expenses.

It's not that Lorraine is not greedy for money, it's because the cost of the army is too high, and the daily food alone can easily consume Lorraine's small treasury, not to mention the cost of other equipment.

Of course, there is also the unpleasant place, that is, the hand-to-hand combat brigade with a really bad level of training, and no less than 500 people have escaped without permission on the march alone, so they have to let Taiwen organize all the horses and temporarily adapt them into cavalry to catch those bastards.

Fighting and training, deserters may not be good, corruption, theft and escape are really beyond Lorraine's reach, it is simply the garbage army of the Qing Dynasty, only know how to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, and take off their uniforms as deserters and bandits on the battlefield, which is very hateful.

Thaiwen chased him twice and figured out what to do, and as long as he saw a deserter, he didn't ask if you had an 800-year-old mother (don't laugh!). It's also possible for a half-blood elf to live to be eight hundred years old! There is a seventy-year-old daughter (mixed race, you know) who is frail and sickly (you can run 10.8 seconds in 100 meters, you call it frail and sickly?). ), kidney deficiency and blood fainting (who doesn't know how powerful you are to play special girls, and it doesn't matter what blood is not bloody when you rob with black hands), beg the uncle to let go of the little one, right? (You let me go this time, I'll shoot you next time)

Catch up, swing the big blade, pierce the spear to practice, immediately practice the musket accurately, and move without mistake!

All of a sudden, the crowd was rolling, and the momentum of the deserters was quickly curbed, because in order to prevent more soldiers from having breakfast, Lorraine directly announced that eighty percent of the property of the captured deserters' families belonged to the pursuers, and two percent were handed over to the legion.

After successfully dividing the ignorant soldiers and turning them into hunting experts, the establishment of the punishment battalion quickly soared, which really made the senior officers happy, after all, the punishment battalion troops did not need to pay salaries.

Little Carl expressed his anger and dissatisfaction with this, "How can you oppress the people like this!? Carl Jr. roared at Lorraine and the others and asked, "Because we have force, the end of disobedience in the army is handled by military law, at least let them participate in the punishment camp to save their lives." ”

"But they just want to survive...... It shouldn't be ......"

"You have to think clearly about Carl, Jr., joining the army is to sell his force in exchange for payment, deserters just want to ask for it unilaterally, but they don't want to pay, then as an employer we have the right to ask for liquidated damages, they can't afford to pay, sorry, go to the punishment camp."

Lorraine successfully fooled the mentor comrade of the plane, turned around and wiped his sweat silently, fortunately, the other party's theory and thinking have not yet been perfected, and a few words can block him.

In fact, some of the deserters did want to go home to visit their relatives for only a small salary, but they did not report or act privately, in this respect they were deserters, confiscated all their property and thrown into the punishment camp, which was a good solution for everyone, except for the unlucky deserters.

Once again, the encirclement of the bandits was broken, and the five hundred men did not even have fifty muskets, and they wanted to eat the Seventh Legion, which numbered as many as 23,000 people, young man, did you not take medicine today?

The seized goods were not much, but the captives were given their positions, "What do you say!" How far are we from Transvania!? ”

"Probably...... Probably...... A month's journey, I mean on horseback......" replied the captive tremblingly.

Lorraine looked at the captives helplessly, as well as the equally unhappy officers around him, "Okay, gentlemen, what do you say?" ”

No one spoke......

"Humph! All of them, and half an hour later, I got back on the road and got them all running!! ”

It's a march that everyone can't look back on, and I hope it won't be a death march!
