Early in the morning, when Gao Ge woke up from his sleep, he didn't open his eyes immediately, as if he was brewing courage.

Suddenly, there was a wake-up call in the distance, three long and two short, then four long and one short, repeating repeatedly.

He was deflated all of a sudden, shook his head and sighed, it seems that this "dream" still hasn't woken up.

"Gao Ge, what's wrong with you?" Gurley's shouting voice exploded around him.

"What's wrong with me?" Gao Ge sat up, asking Gurley who had just gotten up and whose eyes were bigger than a bull's eye.

"Your hair, your face ......" Gurley looked at Gao Ge again, and hesitated, "And your whole ......"

The eyes that used to be empty and blank are now strikingly bright, like the sun's rays gathered by a concave mirror, and the mouth, which used to be unconsciously half-open, is now tightly pursed into a firm line.

Seeing Gli's suspicious look, Gao Ge immediately realized that something was wrong, a person's change should not be too sudden, otherwise, he would be arrested as a demon.

"Hehe! I think it's beautiful. Gao Ge gave Gurley a silly smile as he remembered.

Seeing this familiar expression and familiar taste, the nervous Gerly suddenly felt relieved, and muttered, "Why do I think you are still pleasing to the eye! ”

After quickly getting dressed as they remembered, Gao Ge and Gurley lifted the curtain of the tent and bent down to get out.

The whole camp was shrouded in a thick fog, and after the rain in the south, it was always like this.

The rising sun was not yet able to penetrate the dense fog, but only projected the running figures of a group on the fog, and the shadows were sufficient.

All around were short but powerful orders, and neat and heavy footsteps, just listening to the sound, you knew that this was a well-trained elite army, the Golden Griffin Legion, one of the five major field legions of the Tuyue Kingdom, and it was not in vain.

"Warrant Officer Gao Ge, Warrant Officer Gerley. ”

With a hoarse and majestic shout, a tall figure broke through the fog and stood in front of the two.

Nearly two meters tall, dressed in heavy leather armor, wearing a high crowned helmet, the lines of his dark face are as hard as a knife and axe, really like an iron tower cast from steel.

Those eyes as cold as a blade, and the horrific old knife wound on his face, all showed that this was a battle-hardened man.

Dari...... Uncle Darigory!" Gerly's voice winced.

"Did I already tell you that in the army, you must be commensurate with your rank!" Darigori put his hands behind his back, with an irresistible majesty.

"Yes...... Yes, Sergeant Darigoli. Gurley stammered.

"Hmm!" Darigori nodded expressionlessly, and turned to Gao Ge and said, "Warrant Officer Gao Ge, it's still the same today, you follow me closely." ”

"Yes, Sergeant Darigori. Gao Ge straightened up and replied neatly.

Memory tells Gao Ge that this is a person who can be absolutely trusted, the protector of his army, the subject of his father's small territory and the partner who grew up together, joined the army together, and fought side by side for more than ten years.

In this world, the same army is often composed of soldiers from the same place, and everyone is a fellow countryman, one can enhance the cohesion and sense of honor, and the other is to solve the problem of language communication during combat.

After all, the warriors composed of civilians could not speak the so-called Yayan that was commonly spoken, and hundreds of miles apart were dialects that could not be communicated at all, especially in the Tuyue Kingdom, where most of the land was mountainous, and the dialects were so different that they could really be described as a hundred miles of different sounds.

As for the Golden Griffin Legion, the source of soldiers is Songnan County, where Gao Ge's hometown is located, and this tradition has been inherited for hundreds of years, so it is also known as the Songnan Army.

Hearing Gao Ge's answer, Dari Gory glanced at him in surprise, and then said in a deep voice: "I've heard that this bastard Jereve will pay for this." ”

"Uncle Darigory, you don't have to stand up for me for this, I didn't take it to heart, and besides, it won't happen again. Gao Ge smiled, his tone firm.

The look of surprise in Darigoli's eyes became even greater, and he said after a while: "Young Master Gao Ge, you don't have to worry about me, although he is an officer, I am not afraid of him, but he is afraid of me. ”

Although he fought bravely and received countless medals, Darigori, who had served in the army for more than 20 years and is now over 40 years old, is still only a sergeant.

As a civilian, it is already the limit to be a sergeant in the army, and the officer can only be a nobleman, which is an iron law written into the military law of the kingdom.

Therefore, a veteran like Darigori, who had distinguished himself in battle and had a high prestige among ordinary soldiers, was a thorn in the coffin that the junior officers could not provoke, and they could not do without them in battle, but they had no room to rise, and they did not have to scruple about anything in front of these junior officers.

"Not really, Uncle Darigory, and...... You've done enough for me. Gao Ge subconsciously glanced at Darigori's right arm, where a blood-oozing bandage was tightly bandaged.

In yesterday's battle, the ugly figure that flew over and hissed, the tall back that flew and blocked him behind him without hesitation, and the hoarse and angry cry of pain, and the terrible loud sound of the shield spine of the heavy shield breaking bones, fragments of memory flashed one by one.

"That's what I'm supposed to do. Darigori moved his right arm to show that he was okay, "Your father saved my life thirteen times. You're ...... though Although did not inherit his bravery and ...... Wisdom, but undoubtedly inherited his goodness. ”

The same thing Darigori said when he first saw Gao Ge, who had entered the barracks, but today, he hesitated.

On the way to follow Dari Gory to his battle position, Gurley asked indignantly and in a low voice, "Gao Ge, why is he unhappy when I call him uncle, but he has no problem when you call him uncle?"

"How do I know, maybe it's because I'm the captain. Gao Ge shrugged and chuckled.

The Royal Army implements the three-three system, and the three-person squad is the smallest combat formation, and as trainee officers, Gao Ge, Gli and Darigori form a combat detachment, which is subordinate to the First Guerrilla Wing of the Legion.

Dari Gori is the left shield, holding a heavy shield and a long sword, which is the cornerstone of the entire team's defense, Gurley is the right of the gun, responsible for the sudden forward assassination, and Gao Ge is responsible for releasing arrows and throwing javelins under the cover of the two.

What's even more surprising is that Gao Ge is actually the captain of this team, which is also the result of Darigori's repeated insistence, perhaps, because the captain has the right to be protected first.

Could it be that this world also has a fine tradition of protecting leaders when they are in danger?!

Along the way, fighters constantly stood up and saluted, beating their chests with their fists, their faces full of heartfelt respect.

"Hello! ”

"Hats off, Darigori. ”

"My wife has sent me honey cakes from my hometown, Uncle Darigori, please try a piece. ”

"Darigori, may the Lord God bless you. ”

......

Gao Ge and Gerly were automatically ignored by people, looking at the tall backs that frequently signaled to the soldiers while walking, Gao Ge suddenly had an illusion: it seemed that there was a famous general in front of him, and he and Gerly had become small guards following behind.

According to the combat order of "do not raise fire in the morning", no hot food was provided for breakfast on the day of the battle, and dry food was used to satisfy hunger, so after entering the queue, Gao Ge sat on the ground like everyone else, took out dried meat and fried beans and ate them, the taste of these things was ...... Well, it's terrible.

Under the morning breeze, the sun finally dispelled the fog, and the whole camp was revealed.

In the vast expanse of the savanna, the young grass was knee-high, and the rain-washed sky was crystal blue, except for a few wisps of clouds left in the distance.

After capturing Black Pine Ridge yesterday and recovering the gap in the Great Wall, the Golden Griffin Legion pursued all the way here, camped here and repaired, and handed over the task of continuing the pursuit to the later Vital Legion.

It was a dilapidated post station, all the supplies were looted by the invading Southern Barbarians, and the houses were burned down, leaving only the stone barricade warehouse that had been used as a place of celebration yesterday.

Large and small tents were orderly spread across the highland where the post station was located, like clusters of mushrooms that emerged after the rain on the grassland.

"Tick, tick!" Suddenly, there was a loud and rapid sound of trumpets, which could only be produced by the concerted performance of thirty trumpeters.

The warriors rose from the ground, straightened up, and munched on their breakfasts.

In the distance, a team of brightly armored and banner-carrying hunting teams slowly approached, heading towards the assembly area designated as the location of the Chinese army.

"Look, that's the Royal Forest Army brought by His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and there is a brigade of them!"

"Look, more than a hundred people are all knights, in our south, horses are rare, and only the captain of our legion can ride horses. ”

"Look at their plate armor, brighter than a mirror, I heard that they are all made of stainless steel, one piece is worth a hundred gold eagle coins, and the weight alone must be two hundred catties. ”

"Blow, you leper! Two hundred pounds of armor don't weigh people down! How can you still fight?"

"Do you think it's your weak chicken? The Royal Forest Army is all fighters!"

"Put your mother's fart, you think the fighter is a leek, so worthless! On average, only one fighter can be produced in a thousand people. They are all fighters, only the Holy Knights of the Church are fighters, and the Royal Forest Army, the squad leader and above are fighters. ”

"It's already remarkable, a first-class legion like our Golden Griffin, and the captain and above are the fighters. ”

"That's His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince! Tsk, he is worthy of being a beautiful man who has fascinated the entire circle of noblewomen in the royal capital, and he is so handsome in armor. It's actually a golden armor! How many Golden Eagle Coins do it cost!"

"Do you see the blonde knight behind him? That is the youngest Grand Fighter in the kingdom, the Francis Knight, only twenty-eight years old, known as a once-in-a-century martial arts wizard. ”

"Who are those two old men next to His Royal Highness, who are they, can they lift a sword when they are so old? ”

"What do you know, that's the magician guarding His Royal Highness the Prince, didn't you see the banner of the Magicians' Guild behind them?"

"Wow, with the help of a magician, then this Weishan City is not a drum!"

"Hey, these proud old things won't take it lightly, they're just here to protect His Royal Highness. ”

"Shhhh ”

"No...... Don't scare me, it's more than a hundred meters away!"

......

Gao Ge listened hungrily to the discussions around him, absorbing all the information about the world, blaming his predecessor, except for some of the most basic common sense, his understanding of the world was too limited and vague, like a child who did not understand the world.

Suddenly, agitated music sounded in the distance, and with the order of the wing commander, the flag of the first wing was raised high and waved three times from side to side.
