Chapter 207

"Since they are fleeing hard labor, how can they carry with them something that can prove their identity," at the critical moment, the commander of the thousand commanders instructed his subordinates: "Don't embarrass them again." ”

"But?" I don't know what's going on, this person just can't get along with the three of them, and finally he even uses his eyes to convey his inner thoughts to the commander, which is obviously telling the commander that he would rather kill by mistake than let go.

From beginning to end, this person did not take the explanations of several people seriously at all. Under deep worry, Lin Xuanzhong wanted to force the other party to shut up, but like the other two, he never dared to show the anger in his heart.

"Do as I say," dismissed his subordinates' suggestions again, and the commander was faintly impatient.

The commander spoke for the three of them again and again, and the three of them were grateful to the commander, and one by one they privately rejoiced that the commander was a fair man, otherwise they really didn't know how to end up today.

"Thank you, sir," Ming said without regret and hurriedly thanked the commander.

"Dare to ask your Excellency, in which direction do we three brothers have to go, so that we can find the place where ordinary people live as quickly as possible?" The three of them didn't know anything about their current location, so they dared to ask the commander before leaving.

"There will be a city pass fifty miles south of here, you can settle there," the three of them could no longer be allowed to go back from the fierce forest, and the upright commander continued: "If the three of you don't mind, Chen can be the master and leave the three of you for one night, and it's not too late to leave tomorrow morning." ”

Now it's getting late, and the three of them are too unfamiliar with this place, if they can stay for one night, it will be beneficial for the three of them to inquire about some news by the way, but is the commander really willing to help!"

Thank you for your kindness, your adult has shown us a clear way, and the three of us brothers are grateful, and we dare not bother the adult again, "I don't regret that I want to stay overnight, but I'm embarrassed to speak."

"The three of you don't need to be polite to Chen, there is a reason why Chen wants to keep the three," the commander saw Ming's inner thoughts at a glance, and immediately said with a smile: "Tonight I will write a certificate of entry for you as a token, and you can enter the city with the token tomorrow, otherwise even if you find the location of the city management, you still can't enter the city." ”

As soon as the commander said this, the three of them changed color in unison, and they all felt that there was something in the commander's words, but the commander didn't say it, and the three of them didn't dare to ask directly. In their confusion, the three of them gave up the idea of leaving immediately.

"Take them down to rest," he commanded his subordinate, and the commander had already turned back into his tent.

"Follow me," I don't know why the commander favored Lin Xuanzhong and the others, the non-commissioned officer saw the commander leave and knew that it was useless to say anything, so he immediately turned around and left.

At the man's signal, all ten of his men stepped aside and waited, and then the man kept trying to take the three of them somewhere.

Following behind this person, the three of them felt very awkward, always thinking that the other party was not a good person. In fact, the reason why this person competes with the three of them and makes people unable to adapt is just that this person is cautious, and it has nothing to do with his personality. The three of them cannot judge this person by their impressions of him.

Following behind each other, the three of you, you look at me, and I see that none of you have spoken, and maybe you don't know what to say.

Not long after, the people in front brought the three to a tent.

"Rest in the tent tonight, and don't run around, or you will be taken down," and before the three of them could react, the three of them had already turned around and left with a displeased expression, leaving the three of them looking at each other.

"What should I do?" Glancing at the back of the man leaving, and then at the small tent in front of him, Lin Xuanzhong hesitated.

"Let's go in," still calmed down, lifted the curtain, and walked in a few steps. As a result, the two people outside had no choice but to follow in.

There were a few bunks in the tent, nothing else, and it looked empty and could only be used for rest, and the three of them were shocked by the simplicity of the tent.

But it was better to have a tent to shelter from the wind and rain than to sleep in the wasteland, so the three of them were already very happy to have a simple tent to live in. The trio might have been more content if they had known that half of the people in the barracks were unable to rest in their tents every night.

After finding a relatively clean position to sit down, the three of them suddenly felt extremely relaxed. After days of traveling, it is only now that they can really rest, and it is in the barracks, the three of them do not have to worry about the threat from any fierce beasts, and the current situation is definitely very safe.

In addition, even if they have to worry that the army will be unfavorable to them, as long as they think that they have no choice now, they are originally at the mercy of others, and the three of them do not need to have any worries.

"Brother Ming, that person just now won't come back to trouble us, right?" Thinking of the non-commissioned officer who brought the three people here just now, Lin Xuanzhong couldn't let go.

"That Qianfu elder has already made it clear that we are not a gap, and he shouldn't dare to do anything to us in private," Ming Buregret seemed to have considered this issue, and immediately explained to Lin Xuanzhong: "We can leave early tomorrow morning, and that person can't come to trouble us again." ”

For the non-commissioned officer who escorted the three people, Ming Buregret also disliked it, and was there any prejudice against that person that caused Ming Buregret to be unable to objectively judge the situation in front of him.

"Brother Ming, does that person have a lot of rights?" Having said that, in fact, from beginning to end, Lin Xuanzhong didn't know what the status of that person was in the entire military camp just now.

"If my guess is correct, the person just now should be a chief, and the chief is the lowest rank in the barracks," the answer was Qing Yi, who had heard some knowledge of military ranks before.

According to what Qing Yi remembered, there were generally five ranks in the army from top to bottom, from low to high, they were chief, centurion, thousand-commander, general, and marshal. The commander is the superior of an ordinary soldier, and in the commander he is a centurion, and he has more power, and so on the commander has a thousand people under him. And the general is in charge of the life and death of ten thousand people.

The five ranks are only an approximate division, and there are more detailed divisions among them. For example, an average general can control the life and death of tens of thousands of people, but that powerful general may control the life and death of hundreds of thousands of troops. As for the marshal, as the chief of the generals, he has the highest status in the army.

Regarding the knowledge of the army, Qing Yi only knew a rough idea, and now seeing that Lin Xuanzhong was interested in it, Qing Yi told Lin Xuanzhong what he knew.

The man just now was indeed a chief, and the previous ten cavalrymen were under this man's men. Thinking of the majesty of the commander just now, the three of them couldn't help but be even more shocked by the status of the commander,

After Qingyi finished talking about the relevant information, Lin Xuanzhong's understanding of the army reached a new level. A commander is so vigorous, I don't know how majestic the general in the barracks should be. If you elaborate, this is the first time that Lin Xuanzhong has an understanding of the organization of rights, the army is a more formal institution than those family forces, and the division of rights is very prominent.

Then, as the three of them continued to talk about the army, the sounds of the training outside faded away, and all the soldiers were returning from their training area towards the camp. While resting, waiting for dinner.

Usually there are two meals a day in a barracks, and the time is very standard, because there is nothing to do, and many soldiers look forward to those two meals a day in addition to group drills.

As usual, the soldiers outside had already closed their ranks, but the order of the officers was not chaotic at all, and of course no one dared to mess up.

"It seems to be a lot quieter outside, should we go out and have a look?" After the sound of the drill disappeared, it always made people feel a little strange, and inside the tent, Lin Xuanzhong wanted to see what was going on outside.

"En," Ming did not regret having no opinion, nodded and signaled that Lin Xuanzhong could go over.

Got up and walked to the door of the tent, and when he opened the curtain, Lin Xuanzhong found that there was cooking smoke in many places around him. The soldiers waited in long lines for some people to feed them, and they looked very lively, but those people didn't speak loudly, so they felt that the outside was noticeably quieter inside the tent.

"The soldiers of the army are eating," he said to the two people with puzzled faces, and Lin Xuanzhong suddenly remembered the time of his life in the mercenary team.

Some familiar faces appeared in his eyes, and a feeling of helplessness and sadness arose. Maybe because he has been living without a fixed place recently, Lin Xuanzhong always can't control himself from thinking about the sad past. Fortunately, Lin Xuanzhong soon calmed himself down again and didn't think about those things.

"Why don't we eat something too?" After receiving Lin Xuanzhong's reply, he could think of what was going on outside, so he took down the snake meat he was carrying on his back, and then motioned for the two of them to come over.

Before being caught by Nash Chang, the three of them had been on the road for nearly a day, and they did not stop to eat on the way, and now they were indeed a little hungry. The only remaining snake meat was obtained by the three of them when they finally encountered a lone big snake, otherwise the three of them would have been hungry for the past few days.

Although it was safe at the junction of the two fierce beast territories, there was not a single fierce beast, and the three of them had food problems, but fortunately, the three of them were lucky in the end.

Now don't look at the snake meat left, and it is still eaten raw, compared to those soldiers outside who only have dry food and pickles to eat, the food of the general army is indeed not very good, especially in a small border country like this, those soldiers can eat every day is already very good, generally only in the military camp high-status people have meat to eat.

For a few days, they have been living a life of drinking blood, and there is nothing that the three of them are not used to, after all, if they don't eat, they will be hungry.

It didn't take long for the three of them to finish dinner. It was getting late, the tent was getting darker, and the little noise outside was diminishing and almost disappearing.
