North of the fortress of Brix, on a snowy field near the border of the Duchy of Belmar.

The people who survived the first round of tests, before they had time to slow down, were thrown directly into the familiar Camekki Mountains when Anna was on a sentinel mission. Because of the presence of southern and eastern soldiers, they chose to conduct a week-long field training in this area.

At the very least, a sentinel patrol of dozens of people in this area can ensure that these people will not die unnaturally due to accidents such as getting lost.

Including the maintenance team and the clergy, a total of more than 80 people marched on the snow field with no edge in sight.

Even Tifa, who was in the second squadron, began to go from being full of joy to constantly cheering himself up, and in the end, he could only use all his mental attention on the way forward in constant breathing. Because she was afraid that if she was distracted, she would fall behind.

At this moment, she deeply believes that her senior sister. Captain Angelina is definitely not an angel, but a messenger of demons. There have been no less than ten cases of kicking out comrades who had fainted during training, and by the time they reacted, those individuals had already been repatriated.

That's why she gritted her teeth and didn't dare to let herself fall.

(If he was kicked back like this, how would he face his grandfather, he swore that he would do something good.) ）

Tifa could only keep reminding himself with such thoughts while peeking at the Grim Reaper hovering left and right.

The average altitude of the mountainous area chosen by Anna is around 3,000 to 4,000 meters. Also, when there is waist-deep fluffy snow, everyone can only crawl in a full-body position.

At this time, I was waiting at the third meeting point, leaning on Zack's thick fur, crossing Erlang's legs, and tasting good black tea, while picking up the telescope on the side from time to time to observe the slowly moving team in the distance.

"It's good that we haven't been left behind. Looks like it should be adding some ingredients. ”

"Whew!"

Zach couldn't seem to bear to look at it anymore, and let out a roar of disapproval.

Because the Commander's Department had greeted the Northern Army in advance, and knew that it was me coming, Loya specially brought me back Zack, the wolf I had before. Although it has been a while since we separated, I am still very happy that this guy still remembers me, especially the intimacy when we met. At the same time, I also thank the head of the regiment for his good intentions.

As the procession approached the third assembly point, especially when Anna's virtue was seen, some people began to grit their teeth and complain.

"Why should I endure the torture of such wayward imps?"

Although it was just a small mutter, unfortunately I heard really well. This reaction is exactly what I want, all I want is anger, and when anger gets carried away, I can't help but make bad choices.

Of course, I'm not going to tell them the idea of ending training before the team size is reduced to the number I want.

"This is your route back!"

I threw the rolled map into a cylinder and threw it on the snow in front of everyone, stretching my waist very casually.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to remind you. On the way back, you may encounter the Principality's Border Patrol Team, and if they find it or catch it, you will be eliminated. Remember, it's a march. Please arrive within 24 hours, otherwise ....... Then good luck to you guys!"

Gently patted Zach behind him twice, Zach was very cooperative and lay on the snow, and the posture was very low. After I got on the mount in a seductive position, Zach let out a soft roar and disappeared over the snowy mountain with a puff of smoke.

Well, I'm going to use that kind of contrived gesture to stimulate these people.

Remember, it's a march.

Kakawi, who knew Anna's virtues, had already begun to anticipate the worst of the situation. As one of the few women in the group, she felt the need to gather Tifa with two other women, who were divided into priesthood and maintenance, and inform them of her thoughts.

Anything can happen, and never let your guard down.

However, what happened after that was beyond their expectations.

First, the wolves living in the snow valley avoided it with a false alarm, but soon they found the sky again, and the griffons of the Imperial Aviation began to play the role of "bombers", once they found a target on the ground, they would immediately be greeted by a rain of feathered arrows. However, they can only dodge and cannot take the initiative to fight back.

When all this is over, it begins to enter a long period of peace.

But Kakawi still didn't dare to let her guard down, she knew that the calmer it was, the more dangerous it became. And Anna couldn't just stop there.

The others began to laugh at her frightened bird-like state, and the long period of calm also made her herself, and she couldn't help but question herself.

(Could it be that I was thinking wrong?) Is it really just a march with a time limit?)

Of course not!

At the moment, while Zach was carrying me around the snowfield, I was coordinating with the fortress command about the use of artillery.

In fact, every once in a while, the artillerymen cooperate with the remote reconnaissance posts to conduct training subjects in nailing shelling. This was an additional subject for the Brix soldiers after the signing of the Permanent Non-Aggression Pact with Belma. And I, just in time for this field collaborative training.

However, for the safety of the soldiers, the first round of shelling was replaced by air-burst shells as required. I don't want to be charged with the murder of an Imperial soldier. At the same time, five minutes before the shelling, I also arrived at the predetermined position.

"Call the artillery brigade, this is AOE07. ”

After taking over the task of the reconnaissance post, I became proficient in radio coordination.

[Roger, here is the artillery team.] Radio communication is good, shelling can start at any time. ]
