Chapter Eighty-Four: Survival
"This soldier is barely trained."
Thor followed Dane all the way into the camp, and also paid attention to the soldiers standing guard and patrolling, although he didn't see anything outstanding, but it was still quite decent, which made Thor feel a little more at ease.
Although Dane has been corrupted and assimilated by the nobles of the river valley for many years, he has invaded the military land and eaten all the empty quotas.
But Dane wasn't actually an incompetent, and if it weren't for his collusion with the nobles of the River Valley, Dane would have been a good officer.
Although nearly two-thirds of the air was heard, the remaining one-third of the actual soldiers were well trained, so the soldiers that Thor saw now still looked like regular troops.
But it didn't take long for Thor to discover a problem.
"Are all the soldiers here? Or is there some other garrison for the garrison? ”
After all, Thor has been in the army for a long time, and how many people there are in a troop, you can get a figure by looking closely,
Now there are at most six or seven thousand people in front of Thor, and the gap between them and the 20,000 actual soldiers of the garrison corps in the valley is still a bit large.
Hearing Thor's question, Dane, who was still smiling all over his face, suddenly turned pale, and his smile froze on his face, obviously it was not too hot, but the beads of sweat that were the size of beans couldn't stop flowing down from the corners of his forehead.
If the people who came from the royal capital were changed, Dane might dare to find some excuse to push it for two days, and then order troops to stand in line after the strong men who had recruited a lot of people arrived.
But in front of Thor, Dane didn't even have the courage to lie, with Dane's understanding of Thor, it was impossible for the rhetoric he prepared to hide from Dair, and the newly recruited strong man couldn't escape Thor's eyes, and he would definitely be discovered by Thor.
"Dane, what's the matter with you."
Thor also noticed that Dane was a little abnormal, and Dane's face was pale at this time, and cold sweat broke out.
You must know that Dane is a good hand at the Great Knight Rank, and his physique is more than ten times stronger than ordinary people, so he should have been cold and hot a long time ago, but at this time, his face was pale as if he was seriously ill, and cold sweat kept pouring out.
"Plop!"
Dane, a strong man of two hundred pounds, suddenly fell to his knees in front of Thor.
"There is no other garrison for the garrison, and that's all the soldiers."
As he spoke, Dane buried his head and tried to bow down, and the huge Dane shrunk in front of Thor like a leather ball.
After Dane finished speaking, the few people brought by Thor looked at each other.
Everyone is in the army, so naturally they all quickly figured out what was going on, and this kind of thing is actually very common in the army.
In addition to the fact that the Praetorian Guard of the royal capital is under the nose of Sol, and there is no problem of empty salaries under Sol's personal view, the garrisons of the kingdoms in various places are somewhat problematic.
But they didn't expect that the problem of air sound in the river valley was so serious, although the Golden Dragon Kingdom was not in its prime, it was by no means a dynasty in the final stage, and the nobles and officials everywhere did not dare to go too far.
Eating a vacancy is a common phenomenon, although Thor can't get used to it, but he can't control it.
But less than half of the actual troops like the Garrison Corps in the River Valley really surprised these well-informed officers, and if they had to evaluate it, this empty sound was simply frenzied.
"You're damned!"
"Bang!"
After being slightly stunned, Thor, who was originally quite kind, angrily raised his foot and kicked Dain hard.
Dane's two-hundred-pound strong man was gasped out a few meters by Thor's kick and slammed into the steps.
Seeing that Dane was being attacked, the patrolling garrison instinctively surrounded him.
"Ahem, stand down!"
Dane, who had fallen on the steps, gave a shout out of the soldiers who had come up, and then struggled to his feet, his body covered with dust,
Although he looked very embarrassed, he was actually not too seriously injured, although Thor kicked this kick ruthlessly, but he only kicked it out with his own physical strength, and did not use his fighting spirit.
Ordinary people may not be able to bear it, but a great knight like Dane definitely can't stand any serious injuries.
Although Dane looked embarrassed at this time, he was already a little happy in his heart,
The bet is right, although Saul's kick is angry, it is not a deadly posture, he is still useful, and he still has a chance.
"Qiang"
As soon as Dane struggled to get up, as soon as he looked up, Thor's long sword was already on his neck,
The blade of the sword rested on the major artery on the side of Dane's neck through a layer of skin,
Dane instinctively wanted to ignite his fighting spirit to resist, and suppressed this instinct fiercely,
Honestly knelt on the ground with his neck sideways.
"Give me a reason not to kill you!"
Thor pressed his sword hard against Dane and said coldly.
"I know enough about the valley, and I have evidence that the various families in the valley have encroached on the military land.
Although the garrison corps in the valley is seriously empty, the combat effectiveness of the six thousand people in front of him will definitely not disappoint the adults.
With me here, it will be more convenient for adults to control the garrison legion,
I also have a lot of handles in each family, I know their family background, and I am not afraid that they will not bleed.
I am still a great knight, and I am willing to be a pawn in front of adults and horses.
I ......"
Dane's words were urgent, for fear that he would be cut off by a sword if he spoke slowly and before he could satisfy Thor.
I have to say that Dane's effect of selling his teammates is quite good,
Emotionally speaking, although Saul wants to cut Dane with a thousand knives to vent his hatred, but rationally he also agrees with Dane's words,
At this point, killing a Dane can't solve the problem now, and the more important thing is to put this terrible river valley in order to support the Northland as soon as possible.
The orcs are moving more and more in Dragon's Breath, and it is likely that he will not have long to spend energy in the Northlands.
"Qiang"
Thinking of this, Thor put away his sword and returned it to its sheath,
"From now on, you are not the commander of the garrison corps, and the position of corps commander will be temporarily taken by me, so you can be a pawn in front of my account first."
"Thank you for not killing!"
Although he was pushed from the position of the commander of the legion to the end, Dane felt extremely happy, and his life was finally saved.
Next, you have to continue to reflect your value in front of Thor.
Sometimes, for those in higher positions, the view of a person is not to see whether he is good or bad, but to see whether the person is useful and valuable to himself.
As long as it is useful enough, no matter what bad things he has done, he should keep it or keep it,
Dane understands this and tries his best to show his worth before he narrowly escapes with his life.
"Order all the officers above the command to come to the main hall to discuss matters."
"Yes, sir!"
When Dain heard Thor's order, he immediately got up from the ground and went to summon people.
Although he was demoted to a minion, it was more convenient for Thor to let Dane handle the affairs of the garrison legion.
"Kuz, armor for me."
"Yes, my lord"
Kuz opened the chest behind him, and the armor in the box glowed with a dazzling golden glow in the sunlight.
