Volume IX Section 57 Brigade
Originally, the stone was happy that it was really Uncle Mitheus, but Byron's performance made this kid's heart "chuckle" and feel a little uneasy. The www.biquge.info hurriedly asked, "My lord, what did you receive?"
Now Byron was a little embarrassed, and he remembered what happened in his mind.
About a year ago, somewhere on the Northern Front was in an emergency, a corps commander named Mitheus Asuka delivered two letters. One is a request for help, and the other is a suicide note.
Because he was at a critical point in the war, Byron did not have the extra troops on hand to rescue, so the matter was delayed. Although a corps was indeed sent to the rescue, it was a month before they arrived at the place where the fighting took place. And there, too, has long been gone.
In addition, if the soldiers who rescued at that time continued to explore forward, they would have to enter the territory of the Yuan Kingdom, so this corps also turned back.
Seeing that Byron was silent, the stone fell into deep thought, but he really made this kid anxious. Mitheus is the father of her friend Mina, and if something happens to her, what will happen to Mina, who is far away in Shidu. What about Mina's mother?
"Lord Commander, Uncle Mitheus has been kind to me, and I can become a soul master thanks to his care, please tell me truthfully. ”
"Uh... This happened a little suddenly, probably like this. ”
Now that it had happened, Byron naturally couldn't hide it. Although for the entire northern front, the life and death of Mitheus's corps does not play a big role, but after all, Byron was also responsible at the beginning, if he hadn't delayed Mitheus's letter asking for help, maybe this person is still fighting on the front line now. At least it's much better than no news of death.
Therefore, Byron also briefly told the stone about the urgency of the war a year ago and Mitheus's request for help. Originally, he thought that the stone would show a little excitement, after all, the uncle of the same villager died, and as a junior who had been taken care of by him, it was impossible to be indifferent.
But to Byron's surprise, the stone was surprisingly calm.
After being silent for a long time, Shi exhaled in a deep breath and said, "Commander, I don't know if I can be useful in the army?"
As soon as these words came out, Byron was a mixed bag. This young Brigadier of Shi Guo obviously wants to stay on the northern front.
Nowadays, the northern front is in urgent need of talents, whether it is an ordinary soldier or a military general who can lead troops to fight, that is as many as there are. At that moment, seeing that the stone wanted to do his part, Byron also said what he thought in his heart, "Since you are the captain of the military brigade and the cooking army under the logistics, there is really a place where the commander needs you at present." ”
Stone nodded, listening to Byron's instructions.
"On the front front, I sent five legions to fight. Four of the legions were in a passive combat situation. If I could, I would like to assign you to these four legions. ”
Byron's tone of voice must not be unkind, how can he, as a commander, send the people below to the front line and discuss with the other party.
The strength of the stone now, in the entire northern front, can also be regarded as a general. Although it can't compare to the existence of Herdo and Marlowe, the generals below the general corps commander are not his opponents.
"Don't worry, I won't let you go to the front line to fight, but let you lead a brigade of cooking troops to the front line with one of the five corps that will leave the front line tomorrow to take care of logistics. ”
As soon as he heard that he was going to be in charge of logistics, this made Shi feel a little unwilling. Anyway, I also have some combat power, so why can I only burn the fire and cook, this is obviously overkill.
As if to see what Stone was thinking, Byron explained: "Stone, don't underestimate your position, although the people below you are indeed in charge of the army's food, but you are different. ”
The stone looked up at Byron, and he really wanted to know how different he was from the people below. Before, he was ready to go into battle to kill the enemy, and this time he asked him to cook on the fire, but it was a little unsatisfactory.
"You said you were a beast cook, right?"
Stone nodded.
"Well, since you're a beast cook, then, let you be in charge of the soul beast cooking of the legion generals on weekdays, I don't know if you can be sure?"
"Oh?" Shi was slightly stunned, "Commander, can you tell me more about it?"
With the knowledge of stones, he naturally knows the importance of soul beast cuisine to a soul master. Whether it's improving cultivation or adjusting the state of the body, it's quite effective. But what he didn't know was that he didn't expect that in the army, those generals could enjoy this kind of treatment every day, which was really enviable.
I saw Byron say: "The generals on the front line have to go out to fight the enemy almost every day. After that, you will inevitably suffer a small injury, overdraw a small physical strength or something. ”
"Therefore, our army has equipped these generals with special animal cooks. The quickest way to get these generals to adjust their status. ”
"Although most of the effects of soul beast cooking are mainly to improve the soul master's own ability, it is different in the army. Most of them are to speed up the recovery of injuries in the soul master's body. ”
"Therefore, your duty is to be. Cook the soul beast dishes that the generals need, and provide them with a strong logistical support. Of course, it's just the logistics of food. ”
"Well, now you know how much responsibility you have. ”
"As long as there is a powerful beast cook, then the generals in the army can go out and fight the enemy without any scruples. This has greatly boosted the morale of our army. ”
Waiting for Byron to finish speaking, the stone thought that he had a certain number in his heart. The boy said, "Commander, then do as you say." ”
The stone was able to promise, which surprised Byron a little. At the moment, he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, "Haha, okay, then you can choose a corps and set off with them tomorrow." ”
Since he is already in the army, he naturally does not come to enjoy it, and at this point, Shishi's consciousness is still very high. So the boy said, "Commander, which of Uncle Mitheus's original legions?"
"Huh?" said this, which surprised Byron a little, but he didn't expect this kid to still think about it. "Should... It should be the Third Legion!"
Nodding, "Then I'll go to the Third Legion." ”
Originally, Byron thought that the stone would choose the legion that Heldo went to, after all, the two were more familiar. I didn't expect that this kid's purpose would be Mitheus, whose life and death are unknown.
"Stone, it's not that the commander is unwilling to let you enter the Third Legion, it's just that the current situation of the Third Legion is a bit special. ”
Byron's words are really good for stones, and among the five legions, the third legion is in the worst situation. Whether it is in terms of troops, food and grass, or situation, it is the worst one.
Shi Shi's face was serious, "My mind Commander must also be able to see it, so there is no need to say much about this matter, just the Third Legion." ”
Seeing the stone's serious face, Byron was embarrassed. It's a good thing that the royal family sent him to the battlefield to gild, so it's impossible to let him go to danger, in case something happens, how to explain it to the above.
At this time, Marlowe spoke: "My lord, since the stone has the intention to make a contribution, choosing the Third Legion can be regarded as sharing our worries. ”
"Moreover, the battlefield where the Third Legion is located is not so deadly. As long as they do their part in the city, and wait for the situation in the other battlefields to turn around, the situation of the Third Army will be smooth. ”
How could Byron not understand this, but waiting for the war on several other battlefields to turn around, this is not something that can be achieved by just talking about it. However, what Marlowe said also makes sense, as long as Stone hides in the city and does not go out, and only does what he should do, then there will naturally be no danger at all.
Finally, Byron nodded, and he didn't give any orders, but said to the stone: "In this case, you go and choose a brigade of soldiers." Oh yes, it's better to have cooking experience, and tomorrow I'll leave with the Corps to report to the Third Legion. ”
"Someone, call Walkley for me. Without saying any more useless words, Byron commanded the guard at the door.
Under Byron's appointment, Walkley was forcibly appointed as the deputy captain of the brigade where Stone was located, and would report with Stone to the Third Army tomorrow.
Of course, this person was naturally the person Byron had specifically sought out to give him advice in order to take care of the stone. Stone's military rank is only at the level of captain, and in fact, he is not qualified to have a strategist like Walkley on the command line.
However, due to the special status of the stone, Byron did not dare to treat him badly, so he still arranged for Walkley to be by his side.
Early the next morning, Shi followed the corps, leading a thousand soldiers with cooking experience selected overnight yesterday to the battlefield where the Third Legion was located, a town called "Fencheng".
Since the thousand people led by Shi had all passed as cooking soldiers, each of them did not carry the steel guns or steel knives of Shi Guo's soldiers in their hands. Instead, one person has one pot and a large iron spoon. Of course, even the stone who is the captain of the brigade is no exception.
In fact, there was no need for this outfit in the original stone. However, in consideration of safety factors and his identity as a captain, he naturally had to be the same as an ordinary cook, so he mixed in with the front of the team in the costume of a cook.
"Fencheng" is located 70 miles west of the rear command line, and was originally a medium-sized town with a permanent population of about 5 million. However, due to the war, the people in the city have long fled to death, and now in addition to the third army of the stone country, there are only some lonely old people left in the city.
Even middle-aged people with a little bit of strength are very few. It can be said that it is a town that has been devastated by war.
