Early in the morning of December 4th.

Jo was cloak and yawned, crouched under the cloister, and washed up.

The rough towel wiped his face vigorously, and the trace of sleepiness left was completely disappeared in the stimulation brought by this vigorous friction. Qiao Yangtian sneezed, put on his coat tremblingly, and wrapped his coat tightly.

Gorkin's high-pitched and powerful voice came from outside, and in the midst of his shouting, the house was requisitioned for temporary residence, and the imperial officers and soldiers belonging to a full regiment under Gorkin's command had been assembled.

According to the military system of the imperial army, a full-fledged field regiment has one regiment commander, two deputy regimental commanders, two guard companies, three full-fledged battalions under its jurisdiction, and two special logistics companies are deducted, and the full-fledged combat personnel is 1,531 people.

Gorkin's regiment has been fighting fiercely on the front line of the Lanyin corridor, often suffering battle losses, and often with new recruits from the rear.

Having just experienced the battle of the Wolf's Tooth Fort, the regiment under Gorkin now has a total number of soldiers of more than 1,700 people, which is more than 100 more than the normal full establishment sequence.

Jo pressed his hands on the armed belt around his waist, and took Mr. Sgns and the others through the large courtyard slowly, and came to Gorkin, who was reorganizing the army.

Nearly two thousand imperial officers and soldiers were neatly arranged in three large and two small five phalanxes, with straight pestles like tree stumps in front of Joe. All were heavily armed and wrapped in thick winter coats. They breathed low, powerfully, their faces obscured by a thick white mist.

The spirit is vigorous, and the military is majestic.

Joe looked at the elite Imperial Field Army unit in front of him and suddenly drooled a little.

Compared with these elites, his current subordinates are only able to stabilize Marcos's blood axe battle group. The group of guards of the Vettu family, let's not talk about it for the time being; Big Ivan's blizzard warband, that's a bunch of old-***-sons!

Not to mention the combat effectiveness, in terms of military posture and discipline, the Blizzard War Group has been compared to the shadows at all.

"On the orders of the superiors, the headquarters was replaced. Now everyone, listen to my orders......" Gorkin saw Joe coming, he nodded, and shouted the order: "Everyone, turn left?" A row of four? Team...... Walk! ”

A group of logistics soldiers rushed over with a group of war horses, and the soldiers gathered in the compound shouted slogans? A row of four? lined up in a neat line, and walked out of the compound with a 'rumbling' pace? Trot down the street towards the outside of Wolftooth Castle.

Joe jumped on horseback with Gorkin, and a group of officers trotted? Follow the group.

When you came last night? It was late at night, and Joe wasn't in the mood to look at the scenery of Wolftooth Castle.

Now that the sky is slightly bright, and under the dim sky light, this important town of the Lanyin Corridor built in the hands of the Blue Wolf Principality? The rough interracial style was completely displayed in front of Joe.

Spacious? It can be 500 feet wide at its widest point, and 200 feet long at its narrowest point.

The boulders are built entirely on the original shape of the boulders, without any carving, and the buildings built by the large and small stones stand in rows on both sides of the street.

Are these buildings rough, tall, heavy? It lacks architectural beauty, but it is strong and durable.

Just like the nomads on the plateau? They are rude, fierce, and uncivilized, but they are like thick moss everywhere? The vitality is extremely tenacious, what a difficult and difficult environment? They can all stubbornly survive.

On the street? There are patrols of 12 people.

Twelve? It happened to be the full strength of a squad of the Imperial Army.

Gorkin's brigade marched through the streets, patrols raising their hands in salute. Gorkin rode on horseback and saluted them with a serious expression.

And on the side of the road, there are also early risers of Wolf's Tooth Castle.

Most of them are descendants of highlanders, and their dark skin and slightly curly hair indicate their identity.

Only a small number of the descendants of the Imperial people were mixed in, but the descendants of these Imperial people, like the highlanders, looked at Gorkin's army with fierce eyes and distorted expressions, and looked like they had a deep hatred of blood and hatred.

"I don't like the look in these people's eyes." Jo Zeqi rode beside Gorkin and shook his head as he pointed at the men on the side of the road.

"It's been too long since the Empire lost the Rann Corridor." Gorkin's dark eyes flashed with an extremely fierce gaze: "However, what else can they do but stand on the side of the road and be ruthless?" Their bones are not as hard as they think. ”

"Occasionally, a few hard bones are broken with a war knife, and they are broken." Gorkin said coldly: "The broken backbone is useless to pick it up...... Or, simply chop off their heads. Disobedient highlanders, go to death. ”

Joe looked at Gorkin in surprise.

The brother he used to remember—the brother who fought fiercely, but was actually very sullen, and the greatest pleasure every day was to write love poems, play the violin, and hook up with the little girls in Tulun Port......

His back in Joe's impression had faded away.

Only this cold, ruthless, cold as a steel knife in the Imperial Army, Lieutenant Colonel Gorkin......

Joe sighed in his heart, this is war!

A large group of people walked on the snowy streets, and gradually there were big men in brown and yellow uniforms, shackled on their feet, holding various tools, and clearing the snow in the cold wind with difficulty.

When these big men saw Gorkin walking by with a large group of men and horses, they all raised their heads, and their eyes swept around the Imperial soldiers with vicious eyes, and some of them cursed in High Country language.

The soldiers of the Imperial Army who were in charge of overseeing the work picked up heavy sticks and smashed them at these big men.

'Bang, bang, bang', the hardwood stick with the thickness of the arm smashed on these big men, smashing them in pain, gritting their teeth one by one, with a face full of resentment, bending down to continue to clear the snow.

In the building on the side of the road, behind the windows facing the street, the curtains were lifted.

Figures stood behind the glass windows, staring lifelessly at the large group of Imperial Army soldiers passing by on the road.

Countless invisible gazes swept by, and in these gazes, Joe felt a strong, almost substantial malice.

"Behind every window, there is the possibility of arrows, bullets, and bombs."

Gorkin patted Joe's arm, pointed to a few tall buildings on the side of the road, and said in a deep voice: "So, when marching on the streets, you must be vigilant and vigilant...... In particular, do not enter the middle of nowhere, alleys or side roads......"

After pondering for a while, Gorkin tilted his head and said, "Well, if a beautiful lady is in trouble and asks you for help...... Arrest her directly. If there is a lost child asking you for help...... Arrest him directly. If there is an old man who wrestles asking you for help...... Arrest him directly. ”

"In short, come at our pace, whatever trouble they have, arrest them, take them to the barracks, all troubles are not troubles...... But if we follow their rhythm, they may really ask for help, or they may be at their destination, and what awaits us is a trap. ”

"Last night you said you went to the military university, which is a good thing."

"But there are a lot of things that the group of teachers at the military university don't understand...... Only on the battlefield, after truly experiencing it yourself, do you know how dark and terrible the human heart is, and if you want to survive on the battlefield, you have to become how terrible and dark you become! ”

Joe winked, "You have ...... Hands-on? ”

Gorkin was silent for a moment, then pointed to his heart.

Joe remembered clearly that yesterday he saw a half-inch-deep scar near Gorkin's heart. The scar that had healed was still so deep, you can imagine how serious the injury was when he was injured in the first place.

"I just left boot camp and entered my third month of front-line operations. At that time, I was not in the Rhine Corridor, but in the north to guard against the barbarians of the ice fields who had come across the sea. ”

"I'm going to save a little girl, at most twelve." Gorkin squinted his eyes and muttered in a low voice, "She was badly injured in the leg, and I took her to the medics...... She used a corrugated short sword and gave me a sword directly. ”

"Then, three Icefield Beast Soul warriors with the same strength as me at that time jumped out, and the three of them surrounded and killed one of me."

"I killed them all...... The little girl ......" Gorkin looked up at the sky: "That little girl ......"

"You killed her?" Joe's eyes widened.

Twelve-year-old girl...... This inexplicably reminded Joe of Weima.

Although she assassinated Gorkin, she was an enemy...... But......

"I'm going to let her go, but the three people I killed were her three brothers, the only three men left in her family. Her father, uncle, and other brothers were all killed in the attack on the Empire. ”

"She killed herself in front of me with that corrugated dagger."

Gorkin shrugged his shoulders: "I haven't been back in a month...... But then, it's good to get used to it. ”

Joe grinned, raised his hand, and gently patted Gorkin on the back.

Just get used to it.

It's uncomfortable to listen to.

"Gorkin, you say, isn't it good for you to continue writing your love poems in the port of Tulum? Why did you join the army! Joe sighed helplessly.

"But I can't write love poems for the rest of my life, can I?" Gorkin looked at Joe with a smile and said with a hippie smile: "Then, taking over the family property left by Hesse, he held his belly at a young age and lay on the cloister to bask in the sun?" ”

"No, no, no, that's not the life I want."

"In addition to love poems, gold coins and women, I have a greater pursuit...... Sky, freedom, and the hustle and bustle of the wind! Gorkin looked up at the sky very seriously and muttered, "Even if my ideal in life is to hook up with a few more women, I can't be limited to that small place in Tulun Port." ”

Joe's face was dark.

Gorkin laughed, and he slapped Joe's arm hard: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, that's a child's ...... Tsk, how can my life ideals be so narrow? ”

"Well, responsibility!" Gorkin patted his chest lightly and looked at Joe with a smile: "This is my responsibility as an eldest brother." A family is more than just rich. ”
