In the distance, the town of Dodan was immersed in night, and in the distance only the horse lanterns hanging from the arrow tower on the north city wall could be seen.

Even the Thorny Mountains were hidden in the night, leaving only a dirt road in the meadow that stretched into the distance, and a row of thunderous rhinos marched towards the town of Plantos with heavy steps.

The soft grass left a row of deep giant footprints.

Occasionally, the Thunderrhino makes a 'grunt' low sound, and that roar is very oppressive.

The caravan moved along the dirt road, and it wasn't long before two thunderrhinos broke away from the group and stopped on the grassy slope, and the two thunder rhinos let out a long low roar.

Director Jorge hurriedly let the thunderbolt rhinoceros in his car rush to the front.

The two riders were already standing next to the front legs of a thunder rhino to check the situation, and behind them were two assistants carrying horse lanterns, and several people were whispering.

Director Jorg and Quartermaster Handel descended from the ladder and walked briskly over, and the two pilots hurriedly whispered a few words to Director Jorge, and then led him around the two front legs of the Thunder Rhino.

Not long after, Director Jörg also walked back with a frown, and said to the quartermaster with a somewhat ugly face:

"Lord Handel, we have two thunder rhinos with festering toes, they should have been bitten by red ants last time we encountered a colony of ghostly red ants."

Handel took a deep breath, and since Director Yodel had come over to talk about it, it meant that something had happened, and he asked, "Is it troublesome?" ”

Director Jörg nodded and said, "We've taken care of the wound, but the festering hasn't been cured, and now it's getting worse. ”

"Need a potions master?" Quartermaster Handel asked.

Director Jörg shook his head and said, "Not for now!" We've sent a message to Wilkes that there will be a dedicated animal trainer and healer on the way. ”

"Can you hold on to the town of Plantos?" Quartermaster Handel asked, frowning, looking at the pitch-black meadow again.

Director Jörg said with some concern, "The toe injury will make the Thunder Rhino very irritable, and there may be problems. ”

Quartermaster Handel thought for a moment before saying, "Then load the goods on these two Thunderrhinos on the other Thunderrhinos, take them both back to Dodan Town, and the other Thunderrhinos continue to the town of Plantos." ”

"Yes, Lord Handel." Director Yorg breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly criticized that the logistics director of the military department was really good at communicating.

As the youngest director of the Thunder Rhino Caravan, this time he led the team to the northern towns of Wilkes City, in fact, it was quite stressful, this transportation task was completed, and his position as the director of the Thunder Rhino Caravan would be stable in the future, if he didn't do it well, I was afraid that he would have to go back to other caravans as a deputy.

Because these two thunder rhinos were injured, the goods on their bodies were not much.

Director Jörg sent the two riders back to Dodan to wait for the animal trainers and healers who arrived from Wilkes.

The caravan still needs to keep on its way.

Before leaving, Quartermaster Handel took out a piece of parchment and handed it to Director Jörg, and said to him: "I have a good relationship with the commander of the garrison in Dodan Town, and this is the person who wrote a letter to Commander Surdak to ask your people to give him this letter when they return to Dodan Town, and trust him to take care of you." ”

Jorg hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you so much, Lord Handel. ”

Not long after, the two riders took the letterhead and drove the two thunder rhinos back to Dodan Town, and the other thunder rhinos continued to march towards the town of Plantos.

……

Andrew returned to the barracks from Dodan Gorge with a squad of cavalry from the cavalry camp very late.

After returning to the station, a group of cavalrymen wearing full-coverage heavy armor rushed to the bottom of the bath wall to rinse the acid on their bodies, and took off their armor with a loud shout, and the knights' bodies were almost corroded red by the acid decay, and many of their skin were severely ulcerated.

The aboriginal herdsmen in the barracks hurriedly ran out of the dormitory and took over the horses, according to the previous practice, first unloaded the heavy armor on the horses, and then shaved the horses' sweat, drank water, fed forage, and finally led them into the stables.

But this time, these aboriginal herders ran to Andrew's side and talked to Andrew, who was shirtless, for a long time next to the bath wall.

After returning from this battle, these war horses have been physically exhausted, and even if they can heal the dark injuries on their bodies, I am afraid they will not be able to charge on the battlefield.

Despite several weight reductions, these Gubolite horses could not withstand the weight of cavalry and full armor.

After a few charges, the hamstrings of these Gubolai horses have been damaged, and even if they cultivate now, they may not be able to return to their previous state.

Andrew didn't expect the matter to be so serious, although he knew that these war horses were not the first choice of the heavy cavalry, but he never thought that this matter would be so serious, twenty gold a war horse, I'm afraid it can only be used to pull carts in the future, which is really a bit unacceptable.

The cavalry who were bathing also gathered one after another, and everyone was a little dumbfounded when they heard the complaints of the aboriginal herdsmen.

When I thought that I had not received formal knight training after all, and I was not very proficient in regular horsemanship, I would make my horses crippled once I went out of the city to fight, and if I didn't do it well in the future, the cavalry would turn into infantry, and then it would be really humiliating.

Surdak was still on the side of the small building, preparing to use the Holy Light Technique to treat these knights who had returned from the Dodan Gorge, and he saw from a distance that many of the knights had been corroded by acid and had large areas of skin ulcers.

Seeing the cavalry gathered around the stable, he walked over and found a group of honest aboriginal herdsmen who were all angry, and after listening carefully for a while, he realized that Andrew was a little too greedy to fight in the canyon this time, so that these horses could not withstand the high-intensity charge.

When the ogre heard this, he ran to the stable, and now he looked at the horses with a much more ferocious gaze, and he did not hide the exuberant appetite in his heart, like a lion wandering in the prairie.

When the aborigines saw Surdak and the half-elf archer Samira approaching, they greeted him one after another, expressing their thoughts to Surdak, hoping that the cavalry in the cavalry camp would better wear hard leather armor to fight, and the heavy armor on the horses would also be discarded, so that the horses could run.

Surdak didn't want his heavy cavalry battalion to become light cavalry all of a sudden, the most advantageous type of the Green Empire was the Knights, followed by the heavy cavalry regiment, the light cavalry was inferior to the heavy infantry regiment, what use could it be on the battlefield?

After much thought, he decided to go to the stables to see if the horses had any chance of healing.

At this time, a team of four-wheeled carriages drove into the barracks, these carriages were full of the corpses of some ghost-patterned male ants and giant soldier ants, ordinary soldier ants had been thrown into the pit for the initial softening of the hard armor, and the four-wheeled carriages stopped in the open field in front of the small building, and the aborigines of the town jumped down from the carriages and began to unload the goods with all hands and feet.

Unexpectedly, Andrew actually led the cavalry to the middle of the canyon, drove away the ant colony there, and hired a group of aborigines from the town to dig out all the ghost male ants buried under the rocky flow.

Basically, all the gains from the battle were transported back to the garrison camp, but these gains were probably worth more than these Gubolai horses.

Surdak can only comfort these aboriginal herdsmen, those abandoned war horses can also be incorporated into the logistics regiment, the Bailin plane is full of some large pastures, and it is easy to buy some war horses.

The only problem is that the newly bought Gubolai horses still can't carry the heavy cavalry, and the new horses have to re-cultivate a close partnership with the cavalry.

When the group walked to the stable, Surdak suddenly saw his old man, this Gubolai horse he had brought back from Handanar County, and after Surdak became a knight, it was also facing the problem of not being able to bear Surdak's weight.

This is probably a problem for all heavy cavalry regiments, and unless they can buy stronger green horses, they will have to think about the more popular Gubolai horses.

Standing in front of the stables, Surdak reached out and gently stroked the old mane's supple mane, which had been well cared for by the aborigine herders, and had recently become shiny.

When the Guborai saw Surdak, he meekly licked Surdak's palm with his wet tongue.

Surdak remembered that he had obtained an enhanced scroll from Scholar Ferdinand to give his horse enough carrying capacity.

Although he doesn't have a strengthening scroll in his hand now, the 'strength and tenacity' of the life demon pattern obtained from the giant ghost pattern soldier ant is so much that the sealing box is almost too much to fit.

The veterans of the cavalry battalion were implanted with this magic pattern almost as soon as they reached the first turn.

But after all, there are only a few dozen veterans who can be successfully promoted, and the remaining life magic patterns cannot be sold publicly, once this thing is noticed by the magic union, it is not good that it will be disposed of as a heretic.

Now, if it can be implanted in the bodies of these Gubolima, maybe the problem of insufficient carrying capacity can be solved.

Surdak wanted to try it, but he wasn't in a hurry to do it right away.

He first instructed Andrew to check the cavalrymen's injuries, and if the injuries were serious, they should be treated first, and the lightly wounded cavalrymen would go to the cafeteria for dinner before returning for treatment.

……

Although it is not a magic herb, it has a unique curative effect on the burns of the ghostly red formic acid decaying liquid.

Recently, there were more and more wounded and acid-burning cavalry in the barracks, and Nika heard from the local aborigines that this weed was very effective, so he took some aboriginal children to the field to pick some of them, and then used a stone mill to crush them into a green juice, which was stored in a clay pot.

Now this group of cavalry came to heal their wounds, as long as the body was burned by acid putrefaction, after the skin was cleaned, they directly applied this green grass juice, which is said to be very effective.

Although Selena looked haggard after recovering from a serious illness, she still had to count the seized materials in the barracks.

She was holding a sheepskin account book, covering her mouth and nose, and leading people to count the ghost-patterned male ants in the empty field in front of the small building.

There is no way, there are too few people in the barracks who can do material statistics.

Signa squatted in the kitchen to boil the water, re-boiling the hemostatic bandage and continuing to use it, while Surdak concentrated on treating the wounded cavalry.

Seeing off the last wounded soldier, Surdak leaned against the railing in front of the house, looked at the northern city wall hidden in the night not far away, and took a sip of a glass of golden cider, with an indescribable relief.

The fourth queen ant withdrew from the Dodan Gorge with the ant colony in the canyon, and the garrison camp was a little easier.

Just as he was about to return to Puss Mountain through the Void Gate to see the red dragon Isser, he saw Adams and Gallatin walking from the dormitory.

"Commander Surdak!" Dressed in Mithril-plated armor and wearing a bright red cloak, Adams walked up to Surdak with his chest puffed out, looking heroic.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of the two, Surdak guessed what they were thinking.

"What? Do you want to try to clean up the ghostly red ants outside the city tomorrow? Surdak asked with a smile.

"Yes, there is no need for me and Gallatin to be on duty on the city wall during the day tomorrow, so we applied to clean up those ghost-patterned red ants in the canyon!" Adams said.

Surdak casually agreed: "Yes, tomorrow I will arrange for Samira to guard the north wall during the day, but you should also pay attention to safety and try not to go too deep into ......"

Seeing that Surdak agreed, Adams and Gallatin left the building contentedly.

As soon as Surdak put down his glass, the guards at the gate of the camp ran in and reported to him, "Commander, two pilots of the Thunder Rhino Caravan have sent a letter. ”

Surdak frowned, took the letter in his hand, and saw that it read:

'Baron Surdak:

Sorry to bother you at this time!

When we saw this letter, the caravan had already left Dodan Town and was on its way to the town of Plantos, but when we set off, we found that the two Thunder Rhinos were slightly injured, and we need to stay with you for the time being.

Your friend Handel'

Surdak folded the letterhead back and put it in his bosom before asking, "What about the two Thunder Riders?" Still at the door? ”

"Yes, Commander!" The guard at the gate of the camp replied.

Surdak nodded and said, "Okay, you invite the two of them in, and I'll arrange this matter......"

I wanted to invite the two pilots to live in the barracks, but I didn't expect these two pilots to live directly in the wooden house on the back of the thunder rhinoceros, they just hoped that during this period in Dodan Town, they could get the protection of Baron Surdak.

As long as you don't break any of the laws of Dodan, no one can do anything to you! Surdak said.

The two riders left the barracks with great gratitude.

In fact, Surdak originally wanted to ask what kind of injury the Thunder Rhino had suffered.

It's a pity that the two riders walked too fast, and he didn't have time to ask......
