Chapter 96: Where is the battlefield?

Among the graduating recruits in previous years, it is not that there are no women, although there are few, but there are still them, but a recruit like Zhang Han with a good face and strong strength has never appeared.

Perhaps the really good people have few friends around them.

Or maybe it's because there are very few people who are just as good.

Zhang Han is dressed very casually today, just like when he usually went to school, shoulder armor, battle skirt, war knife hanging from his waist, and black hair coiled up.

She just stood there, looking at her classmates around her and smiling, still with an unsmiling expression.

"Silence! Lined up! ”

The officer's unprepared order sounded under the city walls, but the frolic under the city gates came to an abrupt end.

The recruits moved quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the sound of the crowd ceased for a moment.

This is the soldier of the Noxus Military Academy, well-trained and obedient to orders.

"Look at you all by one! Did you know you're going to war!? "The uniformed officers were at the gates of the city, giving lectures at the front of the ranks of recruits.

"The cunning of the soldiers of Demacia is beyond your imagination! We must not be afraid of the enemy, but we must not despise the enemy! Although the soldier's words had been heard countless times in the military academy, at this time, they could make these recruits feel that the enemy's sword seemed to be on their necks.

"We'll leave on time at eight o'clock!" The officer left one last order and turned away.

It's not that Zhang Han hasn't left the city, but he hasn't stayed away.

In the old man's mouth, after leaving the city, there is danger everywhere, the assault of bandits, the invasion of wild beasts, and even the predators from another world.

In previous years, countless people died from all kinds of inexplicable creatures, but hunting them was a good income, and even though the Noxian decree clearly stated that it was not allowed to try to hunt otherworldly creatures without permission, there were still many people who earned this gold coin in exchange for their lives.

Therefore, even if you are still walking within the borders of Noxus, you still need to be cautious when marching.

Zhang Han walks in front of the team, excellent students are always easy to be valued by superiors, these students are easy to assign, rarely have their own ideas, and regard orders as heavenly orders, but Zhang Han is now walking in front, but not because she has no thoughts, it is indeed because her ability is relatively strong.

Her insight is even stronger than that of many scouts.

Any disturbance will be incorporated into her eyes, which causes Zhang Han's eyes to always be dull and out of focus.

The march was very boring, with limited water and food, and certainly not enough baggage like the front, so even some recruits knew to reduce communication and save as much physical strength as possible.

Except for some orders from the leading non-commissioned officer from time to time, no one said anything superfluous this morning.

The whole group arrived at the predetermined location before noon, where they had eaten and drunk before continuing their journey, and their first stop was a farmhouse outside the city.

It is dangerous to live outside the city-state in these troubled times, but this family has been farming for decades, not to mention dangerous, not to mention dangerous, even thieves have never patronized it, so it is called the chosen farmer by the soldiers who come and go, and every march will rest here.

However, in this troubled world, who can really live by luck?

When Zhang Han saw the old farmer who went out to greet the army, the first thing he noticed was that the old farmer's eyes were very similar to his father.

He must be a loving father.

The calluses on the hands of the old farmers are also very thick, and in this chaotic era, there must be a special shortage of manpower to take care of such a large area of farmland.

"Old man, I'm here to trouble you again." The non-commissioned officer who led the team said.

"Hey, it's been decades, I'm used to it, don't be polite, you can do whatever you want with these recruits." The old peasant glanced behind the sergeant, then nodded, and turned back to the farmhouse.

Zhang Han saw the old gentleman's eyes again, and for a moment they looked at each other.

However, she had no other thoughts, and listened to the instructions of the chief, so she found a nearby place a little away from the farmland and sat on the ground, took out the food she had brought with her, and ate it.

The blue sky in Noxus is rarely visible, but that doesn't mean people don't yearn for it, so once the clouds in the sky have cleared, people who don't have anything important to do at hand have to put down what they are doing and look up.

At this time, the soldiers, who had eaten their dry rations with little moisture, lay on their backs on the grass outside the fields, looking out at the blue sky.

Zhang Han is no exception.

She habitually put her hands behind her head and lay down on the ground.

After a while, there was the sound of staggering footsteps.

Zhang Han sat up and looked over.

"Hello," the old farmer with the same eyes as Zhang Han's father said first.

"You... Hello. Zhang Han asked, "Do you have something to do, old man?"

"It's okay, it's just that I rarely see the female soldiers standing at the head of the line, old man, I just want to take a closer look."

"Oh." When Zhang Han heard that there was nothing wrong, he wanted to continue to look at the transparent sky, but he heard the old man's words again.

"Female doll... Why do you want to join the army? ”

Zhang Han looked at the old man suspiciously, not understanding why he asked, but he still answered honestly: "For the sake of a better life for the family." ”

The old man looked at Zhang Han's eyes and was speechless for a long time.

After a long time, the old man's gaze moved away, looked at the blue sky, and then said, "A better life? Isn't it the best life to live? ”

Zhang Han was a little puzzled, looking at the old man's vicissitudes of life, he wanted to ask something but couldn't ask.

I wanted to question that the old man didn't have the fighting heart of a Noxian, but I wanted to know what the latter sentence meant.

How can a simple life be called a good life?

The old man didn't stop long, didn't give Zhang Han a chance to ask, he stood up, patted the weeds stuck on his buttocks, and walked towards the farmland.

Zhang Han didn't think much about it, she wrapped up the unfinished bun, got up and returned to her place.

was about to set off, and the recruits did not have time for a lunch break, because the marching speed in the morning was a little slow, which made the instructor who led the team very annoyed, standing beside Zhang Han, facing the soldiers behind Zhang Han, and scolding.

The old man stood at the intersection with some clumsy hands, looking at these recruits who had accelerated the march, and sighed a little gloomily, I don't know why the old man, who was used to seeing the recruits who went to the front line, sighed, but looked so lonely.
