There are still 3 days to go, and at this moment, of course, no more high-intensity training, but some suitable 32 days of rest to ensure that you are in the best condition. At the same time, further check the weapons and equipment, sharpen the sword, sort it out, the number of arrows, the number of stone bullets, etc., all need to be counted and recorded.

Deliver it to the logistics department before you go on the expedition, and when you come back, count it again to confirm how much you have consumed. It can then be supplemented according to the document appropriation, which is very cumbersome. In peacetime, control is always stricter, and in wartime it is a different story.

In the past, Kevin did all these jobs alone, including the last military exercise, but now there are three more people, but it is not much easier. The newcomers, Starter and Gray, know nothing about catapults, and Kevin takes the trouble to teach them from scratch. Sain was also sitting on the side, which was considered to be another study.

This is a real battle, a real sword, not a military exercise. Although the scale of the military exercise is large, everyone's mentality is relatively relaxed, and eating barbecue is called a pleasure. And in actual combat, even if you fight a bandit, you can't be careless, and the lion fights the rabbit with all his might. Kevin and others are not first-class masters, and they rely on equipment to win, which must be paid attention to. Ten thousand times of caution is not too much, and one carelessness can be fatal.

Fortunately, Stadt is also a very literate person, and he has almost learned how to operate a catapult in half a day. It was a matter of life and death, and he didn't dare to be careless. In fact, the more people who are afraid of death at this time, the more diligent they are. Half a day, at least to ensure that once Kevin is disabled or even killed, Stat can also manipulate the catapult to fight back.

Of course, half a day can only teach a preliminary, once the catapult encounters any fault how to repair it in an emergency, or like Kevin's in the military exercise, using the catapult chassis to adjust the "killing", using the lights to blind the opponent to "kill", or even dismantling the entire catapult and reassembling it, it will be a little difficult for them.

After Kevin finished teaching for half a day, he immediately left the three of them in the barracks to train on their own, and urged them not to slack off. And he immediately ran out, looking for the craftsman who gave the drawings last time, and brought back the homemade repeater crossbow.

This machine crossbow is a novel design that Kevin saw in the 213 regiment, and then directly wrote down the principle and structure, drew a drawing, and then handed it over to the craftsman to copy. Of course, this craftsman is not an ordinary person found on the street, and all the shops that make weapons in the country are actually connected to the military, so there is no need to worry about leaks and other problems. 【】

After a few days, the craftsmen imitated it, and they were also very interested in making something new, and it was extremely efficient. However, faced with a problem, the volume of this repeating machine crossbow was too large, and it could not fit on the catapult.

Kevin's catapult has five pairs of load-bearing wheels and a larger chassis, but it also has a lot of stuff on it. The chute at the rear for self-loading the projectiles takes up a lot of space, and the winch, pulled by a donkey, almost fills the front. The space on both sides is too narrow, which is really a headache.

Time is running out, and it is unlikely that the catapult will be significantly modified, and the performance may be greatly affected. The four of them discussed for a long time, and finally decided to install wheels on this machine crossbow. In peacetime and dragged behind the catapult, while in battle, it can act alone, can attack and defend, and the tactics are more flexible and changeable.

It's still very simple to just install wheels, but if you want to install the right wheels, you just rely on four people to take it for granted, which is obviously not possible. Kevin went to the repair shop again and found Lao Te, a veteran in his 40s who also designed the chassis of Kevin's catapult.

However, Lao Teh has never seen this kind of novel machine crossbow, and he is also very curious about its burst performance. But fortunately, Lao Teh has a lot of experience, and he casually found two small trolleys from logistics. Remove the chassis, assemble the two front and rear, and then install the crossbow.

This strange four-wheeled crossbow was finally basically born, and it looked like the body of a wooden horse, with four large wheels next to it. The position of the horse's head is a device with two crossbows superimposed on top of each other, and the horse's belly is a pedal. By pressing the pedal forcefully, you can make the crossbow pull the string in a row, the left hand to pull the arrow belt, the right hand to control the crossbow to turn, and the trigger to control the launch.

There is no power, only people can push or pull horses, and then the back of the trailer. It's also easy to get stuck when firing in bursts, and although you can continue firing after a single fiddle, on the battlefield, this tinkering can be fatal.

But no matter what, everyone present was very optimistic about this strange-shaped weapon, and it was all hard work after all. Gray even suggested a name for the new thing, and several people immediately expressed their opinions. Some people said it was called: "Repeating Cavalry", some people said it was called "Infantry Fighting Vehicle", and Statt even said: "It should be named after the founder, for example, it should be called the Indonsi Hall Car." 【】”

Kevin just smiled: "It's better to wait for the car to really show its strength, and then discuss the details such as the name." If it is scrapped in a real battle, then it makes no sense to take a name. ”

While the equipment is being sorted out, the new parrot training can't be pulled down. Kevin thinks that the main reason why the big girl has a low hit rate is because of her strength. The foundation is not solid, and it may not be of much help to practice stone-throwing guidance directly, so I simply let her keep holding on to the stone and flying, practicing strength.

In addition to stepping up his preparations, Kevin is also very concerned about the crow. From time to time, the parrot who was patrolling the air asked about the situation, and the parrot said at first: "Well, it's good, now follow our leader." But finally one time, a parrot slipped out, and after Kevin's repeated questioning, he learned the truth.

The crow has actually been signed by the parrot leader as a master and servant, and has become his pet, and can even be said to be a slave.

Kevin was shocked, although he didn't want to believe it in his heart, but he considered it from a rational point of view. No matter how powerful this crow is, it is unlikely that it will be an opponent for a high-level mage like the Minister of Communications. Kevin can only feel sorry in his heart, this signing is a lifelong thing.

However, on the third day, Kevin happened to pass by the cafeteria and saw a crow playing with the dog, accompanied by a parrot. When he saw Kevin coming, the crow crowed twice, looking very cheerful. The parrot on the side looked very unhappy, but still spoke: "Hello sir." ”

Kevin felt a little strange and immediately asked, "I heard that the crow has signed a master-servant contract?"

"Yes. The parrot's tone was stiff and obviously uncomfortable.

"And what is this doing?" asked Kevin.

"It's your business. The parrot replied coldly.

Kevin shook his head. The person who can speak to Kevin like this should be a parrot of a very high rank, and it is likely to be the parrot of the Minister of Communications, that is, the parrot leader, that is, the main "man" of the crow. But...... Will the slave owner personally accompany the slave to walk the dog?

Of course, it's not that there isn't, and the disparity in status is not all barriers, Kevin has seen countless noble but mentally retarded young ladies, and inexplicably falls in love with lowly and equally mentally retarded protagonists. Maybe birds think differently, right?

Others may be so strange that they forget it in a blink of an eye, but Kevin knows that this crow has different strengths. I can't help but have some hopes for him, and when I see some strange phenomena, I always associate some complicated plots. Could it be that this crow has somehow lurked again, etc.

Kevin decided to test it and took two steps forward: "By the way, what's the name of this crow now?"

The two birds glanced at each other, and then the crow subconsciously shook its head left and right, and after a moment, the parrot said with difficulty: "He...... His name is ...... Dog walkers. ”

Kevin: "......"

"Ahhhh......h

"What's your bad name?" Kevin complained, and then Kevin continued to make small talk, "What have you been up to lately?"

The parrot was silent for a moment, but still spoke: "Tao ...... Cultivating sentiments. ”

Kevin had become more and more aware that something was wrong, and the parrot had been clearly impatient with himself just now, but now he was beginning to answer questions honestly. Although I couldn't see his face, his voice was intermittent, and I always felt very suspicious.

However, Kevin's expedition was imminent, so he didn't have so much thought about it, and he didn't continue to try. Doubts are left in the psyche, and things will depend on the situation in the future. Simply stood up: "Finally, we have worked together before, and we will go on the expedition soon, wish me good luck." ”

The crow looked left and right, silently walked to the dog basin, and fiddled with the meat in the dog basin at will, and the dog on the side hid far away. Just for a moment, the meat and bones are placed in the shape of a person, and then with a peck, the meat at the head is pecked and eaten.

Kevin was stunned, he couldn't help but be frightened, he was covered in a cold sweat on his back, and subconsciously clenched his fists. There was a long silence before Kevin turned to leave.

The time of the 3rd was soon approaching, and on this day the staff officers began to gather the commanders who went out to announce the specific tasks.

"The target of this departure is the bandits in the hills of Kaludia, this group of people has not come out for a while after hearing the wind. But they are inactive, and we can't just wait forever, so I led the expedition with Lieutenant Colonel House, the captain of the 3rd Group, and Lieutenant Kevin of the catapult brigade cooperating. "The staff officer has indicated the location on the map.

Kevin was surprised, the Carudia hills? Isn't this the place where he once did a mission with the general? At that time, the general's guards killed two groups of bandits, and now they are there again so soon? And remember that the bandits at that time were almost unclothed, and now they need to be cleaned up on such a scale? Could it be that another group of people has come?

"The Kaludia Hills go to the north, that is, go deeper, there are middle and low-level demonic beasts in it, I hope everyone will not be left alone when they move," the staff officer continued to introduce the terrain, "The terrain is quite undulating, and there is some restraint on our cavalry, but it is not impossible to walk." The ground is soft and suitable for burrowing, and it is estimated that the bandits have a deep base inside. There is a perennial fog over there, and the effect of using the crystal ball is also very poor, so you can't see anything. ”

"The terrain is very unfavorable to us, but with such a resounding reputation as our Thunder Knights, will we still be afraid of this? Of course, don't think that the bandits are very weak, and the officers and soldiers under your command must make it clear, and we must not have the slightest idea of underestimating the enemy. Because we currently have very little specific information about the bandits. "The staff officers continue to mobilize.

The more Kevin listened, the more he frowned, the hilly area, the perennial fog, this can't be seen, how can he throw stones? It doesn't feel like a place where catapults should go in. But at this time, it is inconvenient to refute.

"When you get back, start moving right away," the staff officer continued methodically, "and you must reach the first transit station before dark, and use it as a base to advance step by step." The logistics unit went on to go up. ”

"In addition, 75% of the men will be sent out this time, and the remaining 25% will be left behind. The staff officer turned to look at Kevin, "Kevin, you put Sain behind for me." ”

Kevin was stunned and blurted out, "Why?"

"No, it's an order," the staff officer sneered, "it seems that you really should go back to the recruit corps and train your sense of obedience to orders." ”

Kevin was silent, as a staff officer, he had to stipulate who stayed behind, which was too lenient. But Kevin's qualifications are too young, and Sain also has a special status, and Kevin has nothing to say. I knew that this was not an occasion to be reasonable, but the uneasiness in my heart was stronger. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
