Chapter 75: The First Mission
In the barracks, Li Qing was explaining the current battle situation to the officers in his unit.
"According to the message from Irelia's side, Svein has gathered a large number of troops and is preparing to attack Precidian, so we must also get closer there as soon as possible within a month to defend against the enemy."
"Is the source of the message reliable?" Norton asked, standing up.
"Of course, Irelia has her own intelligence network, and I trust her." Li Qing tapped on the map, pulled everyone's attention back again, and marked a route with a red pen on it, "Look, this is the fastest route we have to Préxidian so far, and a month is still very urgent for us." ”
"And there are a lot of areas along the road that have fallen, and Noxian troops are stationed. For example, in the city of Kanpur in front of us, there is an enemy army roughly equal to our strength, and we have been facing each other here for almost a week. A captain with an eyepatch on one eye said in a deep voice.
"Well, we didn't have that much pressure before, we didn't actively launch an offensive, we always aimed to avoid mass casualties. Now that things have changed, we need to change our strategy as well. As it happens, I think the information that came back yesterday can be of a little bit of a difference. Norton, how's that Dahl thing going? ”
"I've already brought him to the team, so I should be getting acquainted with my teammates at this time."
Li Qing nodded:
"Very good, I'll let him go if I think of this."
"Huh? Wouldn't that be too rushed? After all, he had just ......," Norton's expression was a little hesitant.
"So he needs a chance to prove himself even more, go ahead, just say what I ordered."
……
In the barracks, Ling Tianmao didn't know that his first mission after joining here was coming soon. He was still wondering what to do with his new points.
However, after a deeper understanding, he finally had some new understanding of the Ionian warriors in front of him, at least they were not as useless as he had seen at the beginning.
The oldest man, Miles, was not as dexterous as the others, but before the war he was a well-known traveler in Ionia and knew the geography of the land well.
And the little boy who looked at him was called Hank, and his sense of sight, hearing, and even smell was much more sensitive than that of normal people, so he could be considered to be of the greatest value in the reconnaissance unit.
What surprised Ling Tianmao the most was the disabled man, his name was Kati, and he was one of the most famous inventors in eastern Ionia, who could often make many eye-catching knick-knacks.
"You all have your own characteristics, and from today we are a team. I would like to ask you only two points here: First, many situations on the battlefield cannot be changed by the ability of one person. Regardless of the way you fought or the style of your fight, from today onwards, I want to put the team first, and each of you is just a part of the team; Second, I am your captain, so I am responsible to you, and at the same time, you must fulfill your duty to obey my orders unconditionally during the war. ”
Ling Tianmao gave his first speech since joining the Ionian Resistance after organizing his language a little. He didn't have much management experience, and even before he crossed over, he rarely participated in some of the school's group activities, but he came to these two conclusions based on several military training experiences in his previous life and some observations in Ionia during this time.
The most important thing in the military is unity and discipline, individual strength is never worth mentioning in front of the team, and obedience is considered to be the nature of soldiers, in the complex environment of the battlefield, the emergence of different voices is likely to bring disaster to the whole team.
And through some of his experiences in Ionia during this time, he also found that although there was almost no war in Ionia, because the people here were very passionate about martial arts, most of the Ionian Resistance fighters were temporarily formed, but their combat effectiveness was no worse than that of the Noxian army. The most dominant aspect of the Noxian army was their strict discipline.
In addition, the individual characteristics of this team are very prominent, which means that their strengths and weaknesses are easily magnified infinitely, and only by cooperating with each other can this team play its strongest strength.
The members of the team looked at the young man in front of them, and their expressions were a little strange. They used to be the best in their fields, and after joining the Resistance, they were assigned to the most important reconnaissance team because of their characteristics. Now that a young man suddenly came and became their captain, they were naturally not convinced.
In the end, it was the youngest Kati who applauded a few times, and under his leadership, the remaining few people followed with sparse applause.
Seeing the reactions of these people, Ling Tianmao also smiled bitterly in his heart, it seemed that he was really not very popular.
Just when Ling Tianmao was still having a headache about what to do, Norton and the guy in animal skins walked over to this side.
"Dahl, how's the new team going? You've got to know everyone, right? As soon as he walked up to Ling Tianmao, Norton asked.
"Uh...... Well, I've already said hello to them, and everyone is very good, and I'm sure we'll have a good effect in future wars. ”
"That's great, there's a task for you to complete right now. You're just starting your job, but it's a tight time, and you don't seem to be able to find anyone to choose from. ”
"It's okay, as a member of the Resistance, we should be ready to carry out all kinds of tasks at any time." Although Ling Tianmao promised on his lips, he couldn't help but want to scold in his heart. I've only known these guys for less than an hour, and I actually arranged a task for myself directly, and it sounds like this task is not so simple. But he was also unwilling to refuse, he was new to the city, and he couldn't leave a bad impression on Li Qing. And according to his guess, the Battle of Presidian should begin soon, and before that he needed to establish a certain position.
"Really, I only now believe that Captain Li Qing is not wrong, if all the fighters of the Resistance Army are like you, we will definitely win the final victory in this war. Okay, I'll leave the rest of the time to Lord Udir, and he'll explain to you the contents of the mission and the precautions. ”
