Winter frost as well as acquaintances
By May, Camp Riptide was on track. Kakawi was in charge of the operation of the mech, and the physical combat was all handed over to Caesar. So far, no recruit has been able to survive Caesar's three moves.
This made it a lot easier for Anna, who was holding the title of battalion commander, and had more time to think about other things.
May 17 Training Base Rapids Camp Temporary Conference Room
"Kakawi, I need you to go down there and get a list of people. ”
Anna moved a table labeled with a platoon leader to the corner of her desk.
At the end of the month, more than a dozen related households planted in the battalion will return to their respective units one after another. They talked about the next round of recruit training according to the training mode of the Riptide Battalion. Then those vacant positions urgently need to be filled.
Of course, Anna doesn't want outsiders to meddle in these positions, after all, it's still the insiders who are more reliable. After all, it's your own people, and it's a lot easier to command.
"I see! Anything else?"
Kakawi picked up the list and looked at it. On the list, Anna has written several candidates that she thinks are suitable, and the names of some less desirable people are also circled in red pen as alternate candidates. This Kakavi will make the next work much easier.
"Also, you and I will be transported to Aobo in the afternoon, and we will go to receive it together. ”
Anna moved her sore neck from side to side, her spine rattling softly. I raised my head and thought about it carefully, and I felt that there seemed to be nothing missing.
"That's all for now, you go first. "Oh, by the way, to those subordinates, show what a commander should be. ”
"Hey, I'll go. ”
Kakawi was only four or five years older than Anna, and her overly gentle personality made it hard to imagine that she was already a veteran for more than three years.
Originally, Anna had plans to send Kakawi to the company, but looking at the current situation, it simply didn't work. Don't talk about commanding others, go and convey an order alone, because the resistance caused by the harshness of the content of the order can scare this guy speechless.
The last two months of busyness have made Anna forget one thing. That is, the weapon she asked the dwarves to build, but she never took it. Anna decided to do just that, and went out for a run.
Of course, this kind of thing can't go through the main door. According to the regulations of the base, all personnel are prohibited from going out unless necessary leave during the training period.
As a result, Anna became the first person in the Riptide Camp to go out over the wall to hang out, but she was also the military commander.
As for how good the Torrent Battalion is, at a military training assessment in early May, only this battalion in the entire base had a pass rate of more than 97 percent. Whether it is the traditional training method or the new training system, this is the highest score in the history of the Empire. Even a colonel sent by the Imperial War Department to inspect felt that someone had manipulated the score. He did not hesitate to use the power in his hands to make the soldiers of the Riptide Battalion do it all over again.
The officers and men of the entire battalion, whether they were officers, soldiers, logistics personnel, and cooks, all of them once again proved themselves with a pass rate of 98 percent.
That's how Anna's share of the soldier promotion quota came about, but in fact, there were only three people who knew about it. Anna, Kakawi, and a high-ranking officer at the General Staff Headquarters.
The supreme honor is the most inspiring. This kind of assessment made the three companies of the Riptide Battalion realize what it means to be a collective honor and what it means to be a pioneer.
Hemarton North End Fair Dwarven Weapons Shop
"I thought you forgot about it!"
The bearded dwarven blacksmith chatted with Anna as he motioned for a human apprentice to fetch something.
A few minutes later, the young apprentice struggled to carry the two one-handed swords to the counter with their scabbards. Looking at him, it seems that the weapon is very heavy.
The dwarf snapped and pressed his right hand against the two swords on the table, preventing Anna from reaching for the swords.
"Hey, I know, yes, it's a commission. ”
A bulging cloth bag was placed on the table, and in it was Anna's military salary for a whole year. When she came out to take it, Anna felt like her heart was dripping blood.
(Hopefully it's worth the money!)
She can only do this, and she can't stop comforting herself.
The dwarf didn't touch the money bag on the table, and he seemed to be very confident in his work.
"Be careful, the moment this thing is made, it becomes unusually load-bearing, don't be fooled by his appearance. "If you can handle it, I can waive the commission for the manufacture of the two swords. ”
As he spoke, the dwarf removed his scarred right hand from the scabbard.
The first sword had a black scabbard, and in the words of the dwarves, it was made with meteoric iron, mainly to prevent the cold air from leaking out.
Indeed, Anna held it in her hand and felt that the scabbard was unusually cold. The moment the sword was drawn, the chill of the sword body made the weapon shop turn into an ice cellar in the blink of an eye, even though it was already summer outside.
The whole body is white like crystal, causing the person's vision to faintly pass through, and the sword body looks thin. It may be that the dwarven blacksmith considered the transmissibility of the overall magic power, and the hilt was made of mythril. These appearances give the illusion that the sword is very light. However, holding it in the hand does have a different feeling.
However, this is not difficult for Anna. You know, for a long time, Anna used a greatsword.
Anna waved it lightly, and a cold wind rose from the ground. On the side, the flames in the blacksmith's furnace felt like they were going to be extinguished.
"It feels pretty good!"
Gently retracting the scabbard, the cold air gradually dissipated, and the temperature in the room returned to its previous sweltering heat. (After all, there is a good blacksmith furnace in existence, so it's no wonder if it's not hot.) )
The dwarf showed a very appreciative expression, "Well, according to the agreement, now the "Winter Frost" is yours. ”
(Winter frost does go well with it.) )
"Hmm, uncle, I still have one more thing to ask you, can you send this spaniel to the academy in the southern district. ”
"Leave it to me!"
Anna placed a note with her address and name on the table, along with two silver coins, and turned and walked out of the weapons shop.
(Yani must be disappointed after so long!)
As soon as Anna took out her weapon, she collided with a girl. Anna, who was the first to see the other party's face, secretly shouted "Oops", lowered her head and turned around to drill into the crowd.
"Stop. ”
As a result, Anna walked faster.
This girl is really Elle, because of the corded telephone and the switch, which has something to do with her. Therefore, she was assigned to come and conduct systematic training on the use of switches and signal soldiers in the base.
The two of them were able to collide here entirely because a certain high-ranking official of the Aobo garrison wanted to be courteous. And although Anna wanted to say hello to Ellie, considering that she had secretly run out of the barracks, she could only dodge first.
"Hey, it's here? Am I dazzled? ”
At the market, Elle, who had walked back and forth several times, finally ended her interest in continuing to wander around with the idea that she was dazzled.
