Chapter 42: Entering the Camp
"War Horn!" Colin jumped up like a rabbit with his tail on his tail, and Alexander's corpse sprang helplessly in the Colosseum.
"The king has an order, all nobles and freemen are conscripted into the army! Beast fighting slaves are in the camp of the dead!" Several heralds wearing high hats ran up to the stands of the Colosseum and announced the emergency conscription order of Gu Aoguo. The spectators in the stands, who were cheering just now, turned pale with fright.
When the herald saw Parker in the box, he hurriedly stepped forward to report, "The king urgently summoned the Minister of State to discuss the matter, and the Selwan thief army has invaded!"
Selwan is the country of Ada, and they have coveted the country of Guao for a long time, and this time they have really sent troops. I don't know, Ada is not in the army. This was Amos's idea, and he didn't feel nervous at all.
The blue-faced Lord Parker hurriedly left the Colosseum, and the equally anxious spectators of the stands dispersed in a hurry. The national war began, and whether they wanted to contribute to the country or not, the people of Gu Ao had to endure the hardships of war. In the iron-blooded and ruthless battlefield strangulation, both nobles and slaves cannot escape death. Under the terrifying war machine, everyone has only one life.
"Colin, what is the Dead Soldier Battalion?" Aya, despite her injuries, survived like a cockroach. He lay bored in bed and asked Colin about the army.
"The Camp of the Dead, it's the Camp of the Dead!" said Colin, angrily. He was afraid of death so he became a deserter, and this time he actually entered the camp of the dead, so it is better not to escape.
In the country of Guao, the national strength is weak, and it is unable to maintain a strong army, and only has a corps on the three borders, and it is poorly trained and weak. In the event of a war, the armies in each direction are vulnerable. Later, it was suggested to the king that death row prisoners, fugitive slaves, and felons should be organized into death camps, and that they should be driven forward in the event of war, and if they could return alive from the enemy's ranks, their sins would be pardoned.
These criminals are ruthless and brave, and they are more useful than cowardly soldiers, and they have played a major role in several small-scale border conflicts. They fought desperately, and even won several battles, and the camp of the dead soldiers has been retained.
"Cut, afraid of birds. After hearing this, Aya dismissed, "No matter how hard you try, it's better than fighting in the Colosseum, look at how scared you are." ”
"Stinky hairy kid, you haven't seen it. The desperation of the enemy army when they were all over the mountains was like the sky falling. "Colin has been through front-line battles and is terrified of enemy charges. "It's not a one-on-one attack, you still know how to die. The overwhelming iron arrows shot over, drowning in the sea of enemy troops at once, this oppression was the most devastating. ”
"Combat skills?" Amos remembered that Ada had taught him to cooperate in battle. Just imagine that 10,000 people are facing each other, and the cooperation in the formation is indeed more than the ability of individual soldiers.
"Combat skills!" Colin confirmed, appearing to say, "It's not a few people cooperating, it's hundreds, thousands of people cooperating. Otherwise, you won't be able to prevent the spear stabbed in the back. ”
"I don't believe it!" Aya looked down on Colin's rat guts the most, thinking that he was bluffing, "We have Amos, and we don't kill seven in and seven out!"
"To put it mildly, he can't. Colin closed his eyes, turned around and said nothing, recuperating himself to continue his escape. Amos could hear it, Colin was talking about "him"! Could it be that the war was so terrible?
After the end of the battle is opened, all kinds of efficiency are very high. Early the next morning, the three Amos were taken to the camp of the dead. But I didn't see "him", I don't know if he wasn't drafted, or if he went to another barracks, after all, he was already a free man.
"No matter how rampant you used to be, when you come to my territory, you have to listen to me!" On the stand, a man with a full face and a bright armor scolded, and he scolded the new soldier menacingly, Colin said to be a general. Amos glanced around, there were seven or eight hundred people in the camp of the dead soldiers, and everyone was listlessly listening to the general's lecture, "Who dares to say a word..."
"Bu...", the new Ding of the dead soldier battalion who was standing in a scattered manner, there was a fart sound in the middle, which immediately attracted everyone's laughter. Amos turned his head to see that he was a dark, strong man, his clothes open on his chest, revealing his messy chest hair. It's winter in Onda Port, and it snowed for the first time yesterday, and this guy is not afraid of the cold.
For offending the general in the stands, the black strong man didn't care, and twisted his neck a few times at will, like a nobody.
"Hack him for me!" The general in the stands was very short-tempered and wanted to give everyone a dismount. The five sergeants standing like javelins under the taping platform immediately raised their spears and killed them when they heard the order.
Amos's eyes followed the figures of the five soldiers, and saw their staggered formations and footsteps, which confirmed the combat skills taught by Ada one by one.
This black strong man obviously didn't look like five soldiers. He twisted his wrist with a big grin, and it seemed that he was very conceited about his combat power.
The formation of the five soldiers was still loose at the beginning, but the more they got in front of the black man, the more concentrated they became, and finally the formation was neat, like a dagger, and they went straight away.
"Kill!" The five voices sounded almost at the same time, and the five spears came out of the water like dragons, stabbing the black strong man everywhere in no particular order.
"Hah!" the black man stepped back, exhaling and exhaling, to fight against five pikemen. He had a long arm, and he really blocked five spears.
"It's dead. Amos only saw the trick and concluded the fate of the black man. This person's strength is comparable to that of a Twin Soul Mad Beast Fighter, but he is slow to change moves, and it is only at the stage of brute force using a knife.
And then, the killing moves of the five pikemen immediately confirmed Amos's words.
"Kill!" the five voices sounded at the same time again, but this time the five spears were staggered, some fast and some slow, some front and some backward. If the black strong man wants to hold it in one fell swoop, it will be impossible. Two spears that seemed to be slow and fast pierced his thighs in an instant.
But then it didn't end, and the arrogant generals on the platform had no talent. The other three soldiers took out their spears and tied the black man into meat skewers. But not yet, the five of them fought and picked him up with their spears, and in the midst of the miserable screams, they held him high and returned to the front.
Bright red blood flowed down the barrel of the gun, and a scream like killing a pig came from the mouth of the black strong man, but no one sympathized, and no one dared to express sympathy. In the garrison of the dead soldiers' camp, no one is the opponent of the inspection team. Despite the large number of death row inmates, everyone is not of the same mind.
The arrogant general on the platform picked up a spear, stabbed it through the black man's asshole, and came out of his mouth. He blocked the fart and said viciously, "You still haven't yet!"
The strong black man, who was not yet dead, was hung on the gallows again, and all the new soldiers in the dead battalion watched, this is the fate of violating General Bruce. Here, it is not the beheading that can be shocked, but it is the most frightening thing that makes people unable to die or suffer crimes. This sturdy black man wailed for three days before he lost his breath, and in the past three days, the Dead Soldier Battalion had completed the Xinding formation.
Amos became the squad leader, leading Colin and Aya, in addition to seventeen felons on death row, and twenty people formed the ninth squad of the D brigade. This time, the battalion of the dead soldiers was divided into four brigades, each with ten squads, and each squad was twenty people.
A total of 800 dead soldiers began to practice in the battalion. The four captains were the pikemen who picked and killed the black strong man on the first day, and they were all from the supervision and inspection team, and they all had black hearts. And the captain of the squad is killed by the team itself, whoever has a hard fist is the captain.
In fact, the total number of new Ding who entered the camp this time exceeded 800. But the extra number of people was killed by General Bruce. There are physical disabilities that do not meet the standards, there are intra-team competition competition team leaders who violate orders, and there are those who are slaughtered for no reason.
But all those who were executed were in great pain, and some even wailed for seven days before they died. Around the camp of the dead, corpses hung on the high and low gallows, and everyone shuddered to see it.
Forward, maybe die in battle or be free, but backward, it is better to live than to die. The 800 dead soldiers battalion Xinding, under such a terrifying suppression, quickly completed the pre-war training.
The soldiers of the Dead Battalion were poorly equipped, each with a spear, and the squad leader had only one piece of chest leather armor, and the others were as shabby as beast fighters. Amos also has a Warrior's Sword, which he gave as a separate gift to commemorate a month's master-apprentice relationship.
It was this short sword that caused Aya to get into trouble.
Because of the urgency of the war, General Bruce trained very hard, from morning to night, and even held an emergency assembly in the middle of the night. The 800 Xinding were tired like dogs, and they had no strength to speak, so they not only trained the team to cooperate, but also carried out the joint training of the brigade and the cooperation of the whole army. The slightest misconduct will result in the use of military clubs.
The one who practiced the most was the team training. On a frontal battlefield, the squad is just a horizontal column, and only one forward assassination move is practiced. With his hands level, the seventeen-foot-long spear stabbed out, retracted, and stabbed out again. These movements, under the orders of the squad leader, can be practiced neatly. As for the captains on the first day, the assassination of the spear with a changing fast and slow rhythm is not practiced by death row prisoners, and their goal is only to fight to the death.
And a brigade of 200 people involves overall cooperation. The squads changed formations in time, each in a different position, and worked closely together to protect each other. It was these trainings that were the most time-consuming, and the newcomers to the Dead Soldier Battalion were also beaten the most.
The reason why the spear formation is powerful is not how each soldier kills the enemy, so the individual combat method is not important. The important thing is that dozens or even hundreds of people, close in front and back, form a spear formation, like an unbreakable hedgehog, so that the troops in the front have no way to start.
Even if you use brute force to pull away a spear that comes in, in fact, it is a dozen staggered shots in front and back, and one shot is pulled away, and it doesn't matter at all. Even if you push away a layer of spear heads, drill into the dense forest composed of gun barrels, and want to destroy the phalanx. But the rear team assassinated again, and the infantry who got into it would be pierced by the spears in the back.
"The 1234 team advances! The 5678 advance and retreat! The 9th team turns left! The 10th team turns right!" The captain of the D team, named Walter, is not tall, but he is very competitive and competitive. Red hair, as fiery as his personality. The team often calls him the Fire Ghost, but they always say it in private.
"Turn left, go!" Amos received the order in time, and the whole team fanned out and moved to the left side of the brigade to attack. A column of twenty people, the outermost Aya in order to keep the formation neat, had to run quickly, and accidentally touched the spear in his hand to the ten team of Gna. The 10th team is turning to the right side of the brigade, which is also a fan-shaped turn, and the outermost Gna is also running in a hurry.
"Damn you don't have dog eyes!" Gna let Aya's spear mix, losing his position in the queue. Thinking that he would definitely be scolded, he scolded Aya in a hurry.
Who is Aya, who is Aya, who is full of revenge, and immediately scolded back, "You fucking long dog eyes!" But in this way, he also lost his position.
There was a problem at the end of the two teams, the nine teams and the ten teams did not achieve their goals, and the overall layout of the Ding team was complete, which made everyone see the joke.
"!" the fire ghost Walter was furious again. He didn't listen to the reason, and shouted Gna and Aya out of the queue, each of them was twenty military sticks, and beat the two of them to cry wolf.
This feud is settled. Everyone is a dead soldier who has lived today and tomorrow, how can he swallow this breath. After dinner, they invited each other to fight
