Chapter 62: It turned out to be a misunderstanding
"Your Excellency, please show me your appointment!" Captain Justin looked at Lin He stumblingly, and had already made up his mind that as long as the other party made any angry moves, he would immediately roll aside with his subordinates, so as not to affect the mood of the group leader.
Motioning for Gray to go up and hand in the paperwork, Lin He smiled politely at Justin. What made the latter look at it was a straight hair in his heart, and he squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying.
The speed of checking the documents is indescribable, especially Captain Justin's unique ability to read the documents upside down with one hand, which made the people on Lin He's side dumbfounded, this guy can't do it on purpose, right?
Politely handing back the paperwork, Captain Justin quickly instructed his men to move the barricades and make way for the logistics battalion waiting on the road.
Looking at the strangely shaped big guys in the team, who were not easy to mess with at first glance, all the sentry soldiers consciously lowered their heads. In this troubled world, more things are better than less, and for some things that are beyond the norm, such as the army that passed in front of us today, this truth is even more understood.
As soon as you step within the boundaries of the province of Limburg, the whole atmosphere changes completely. Warning bells rang one after another in the passing villages. Seeing the frightened expressions of the farmers holding farm tools, the logistics battalion had no choice but to waive all the flags that could explain their identities and gallop past the outskirts of the village.
Lin He really didn't want to believe that the once famous grain-producing area of the empire had now turned into such a depressed scene. The fields are full of crops that are about to ripen, and there are no farmers who can take care of them.
As everyone walked by, countless birds and finches that were stealing crops flew over the field and flew over the team in black, making the sky darker a lot.
"You humans, this is all food!" The MiG patriarch looked at the crops in front of him painfully, and he really didn't understand what he had to do with a good life on the human side.
"Patriarch, this is the real human world, we are indeed much richer than you, but at the same time, we lack common values even more than you!"
Riding a horse at the head of the procession, Lin He introduced the real human society to the MiG patriarch beside him. We used to call the 100,000 inhabitants of the mountains dirt buns, savages. Now that I look back and think about it, are we civilized people sometimes chopping people more barbarians than barbarians?
"Regiment commander, the wolf cavalry reported that there is a human army coming five kilometers ahead, numbering about two thousand, and it is expected to contact in twenty minutes."
Even if they have entered the plains, the elusive wolf cavalry is still the most reliable guard force. Especially when you can hide your whereabouts, it's simply the best scout.
"Inform the troops, enter the combat state, and the cavalry troops will follow me up to have a look!"
Hearing that he had finally met the regular troops, Lin He quickly gave the order to fight. Amid the shouts of the junior officers, a large group of soldiers on foot jumped out of the carriage and began to quickly form a defensive formation, huddled in the middle of the road.
On the outer side of the road, there were human light cavalry units that had been ordered to rush to the front. The wolf cavalry, which had been on guard in small units, was also quietly gathering, preparing to bite the deadliest bite where the enemy was not looking.
The light cavalry rallied in defensive formation at the front of the entire rank, quietly covering the troops behind. The astonishing flock of birds in the distance indicates that the force is coming quickly, and it does not look like a friendly army.
In fact, it was indeed not a friendly army, and the real identity of the other party was the Ninth Brigade of the Limburg Provincial City Defense Army, which was subordinate to the direct subordinate troops of the Governor's Mansion of Jiashan City. He had been on guard duty in the Huska area bordering the province of Kot, and as soon as he received a report from the bayonet, Captain Lao An arrived with the entire brigade.
I heard that it was the logistics battalion of the 45th Army Corps, and I felt that this was a big piece of fat, even if I couldn't get a piece of the pie, at least I had to make some trouble for these guys.
The 45th Corps' logistical supply in Limburg Province has been tight, and most of it has to rely on logistics materials raised from surrounding provinces to barely sustain itself.
Captain Lao An has already made up his mind, and will find an opportunity to directly seize this batch of materials later. How much combat effectiveness can an ordinary logistics team have, and he can bring enough troops to bring a large team.
The captain recalled the contents of the letter, and the five words of the logistics battalion made him relax his last trace of vigilance. commanding his own troops, he pounced directly on the border security bayonet.
"Captain, the scouts we went out to guard haven't reported information for twenty minutes, why don't you send more people to investigate!" The staff rushed over to report an unusual piece of information.
"No need, the troops rushed to the incident bayonet as fast as possible, and I will clean up the captain of the scout team when I am done!" Sitting on horseback, Rau An ordered his troops to speed up the march after a moment's thought.
A logistics force is not enough to let its team go all out!
Lin He on the other side also thought so, a city defense army of more than 2,000 people was not enough to stuff his teeth. But after all, it is the first battle to enter the southwest region, and it is still safe. Under Staff's command, a squad of wolf cavalry began to search the area within twenty kilometers ahead, making sure that no second force was present.
"Commander, they're coming!"
With the blessing of eagle glasses contributed by a dwarf, the direct battalion quickly discovered the troops a kilometer away. Looking at the infantry brigade that was running all the way and the formation was scattered, a faint smile appeared in the corner of Lin He's eyes.
Stretching out his hand and pointing ahead, Deputy Commander Cohen led a squad of light cavalry to meet him.
Ten minutes later!
"Commander, Deputy Commander Cohen has exchanged fire with the other party, and urgent support is needed!" The lookout post immediately issued an early warning.
"Staff, the light cavalry raids the opposing troops, stay alive!"
"Understood, Captain!"
...........
In fact, it wasn't until Captain Lao'an was tied up in front of Lin He that everyone knew that it was just a misunderstanding. When Captain Lao'an was picking on Deputy Commander Cohen's stab, an officer behind the captain drew his long sword, intending to cooperate to create an atmosphere. As a result, he was misunderstood by the guards led by Deputy Commander Cohen, who was also nervous.
As a result, just when the two sides were about to talk again, the light cavalry led by Stave was overwhelmed.
If it weren't for the regiment commander's explanation, it is estimated that Captain Lao An and one of his brigade soldiers would have received a boxed lunch collectively. A whole brigade of light cavalry, or the kind of assault cavalry in full armor, when did the empire have the luxury of logistics troops also began to equip assault cavalry.
When he was disarmed and escorted to his team by the other party's captain, the soul of the captain of Lao An was frightened. This is the logistics battalion mentioned in the letter, and the whole thing is a monster armed to the teeth!
