Chapter 32 Integrating the Team

Joyce called out three times in a row, but few responded, and the scene was extremely embarrassing for a while.

"You're behind the scenes?" Joyce stared at Arthur with a cold face.

Arthur sneered, "Why don't the warriors below come with you, don't you know in your own heart?"

Joyce's face suddenly turned red, don't look at the position of battalion commander before he was captured, but because of the two years of groveling in the canyon to serve the orcs, his prestige among the soldiers was disgraced.

Joyston, who had been scarred by Arthur, was annoyed and angry, "Squadron Leader Arthur, I now order you to immediately bring people and prepare to return to the border." ”

Arthur looked at Joyce with a smirk, "What qualifications do you have to order me?"

"Have you forgotten the military regulations? Although they do not belong to the same army, I am also your commander in terms of rank, and you must obey my orders. ”

Arthur laughed, "Rank? You may have forgotten that since you were captured, the army has reported the death list, what rank do you have as a dead man?"

Joyce was scolded back by Arthur with a word, and there was no way to refute it. He knew the rules of the army better than Arthur, and once he was captured by the other side on the battlefield, he had no chance of returning alive. Therefore, it has always been customary within the army to report the missing persons on the battlefield according to the death list, and the advantage of this is that the families of the deceased soldiers can receive pensions as soon as possible, and the troops can also be replenished with new recruits as soon as possible.

Arthur took a sword from the warrior behind him and threw it at Joyce's feet.

"Since you were the battalion commander before, then you must be a sixth-level captain and a martial artist, and I am only a fourth-level captain, so if we two fight, I won't take advantage of you, right? Now give you a chance, pick up your sword, as long as you can defeat me, my squadron and I will recognize that you are qualified to order me." ”

Joyce hesitated and didn't bend down to pick up the sword because he didn't have any confidence to defeat Arthur. The center of the battle in the canyon last night was Arthur and the lion man FiroΓ±o, Arthur relied on the strength of the fourth-level captain but was able to carry the sixth-level lion man undefeated, and he was not the opponent of the lion man in his heyday, not to mention that he was locked up in the canyon for the past two years, his body and will were exhausted, and his strength may not even be half of what he used to be.

"Pick it up!" roared the warrior behind Arthur.

Joyce was still hesitating, his hands trembling slightly.

"Pick it up!"

"Pick it up!"

All the soldiers who escaped in the canyon roared, "I'd rather die in battle than be scared to death!", the army has always respected the strong and despised cowards, if Joyce doesn't even have the courage to hold a sword, don't say that he will order these soldiers below in the future, I'm afraid he will be drowned directly by saliva and white eyes.

Joyce finally bent down and picked up the sword on the ground, and with a flick of the hilt, a four- or five-foot-long fighting spirit overflowed from the blade, and at that moment he seemed to have regained his courage.

The next moment, the courage and face he had just picked up were shattered by Arthur's red-hot and violent fighting spirit.

With just one sword, the fiery red fighting qi of the "Burst Flame Slash" several zhang long directly knocked the sword in his hand to the ground, and the bursting fighting qi blew him away again.

It's all quiet!

Someone may have guessed the result, but no one guessed that it would be so crisp and straightforward.

Arthur coughed lightly, "Is there anyone else who wants to order me? ”

Arthur's gaze swept across the audience, no one dared to stand up, and when his gaze swept to Silas, Silas didn't dare to look directly at his gaze, and directly lowered his head.

"Since no one is going to order me, now I order, everyone assemble!"

With Arthur's loud shout, no soldier dared to stay where he was, whether voluntarily or forced, and quickly concentrated in front of Arthur, and soon formed a phalanx in front of Arthur.

The soldiers of the 7th Squadron stood in two rows behind Arthur, each with their chests held up and their heads raised, with a calm momentum.

Arthur said aloud to the soldiers in front of him, "I saved you out of the morality of fellow Terran soldiers, but I did not have the responsibility to send you home. If any of you want to go back by yourself, I will not stop you, not only will I give you the weapons and armor in your hands, but I will also prepare you food for three days and ten gold coins for the journey. ”

As soon as Arthur's words fell, there was a buzzing of discussion, and the soldiers exchanged glances and muttered to each other.

"If you want to leave, you can stand up now, and I will never embarrass him. ”

The soldiers made small movements below, but no one was the first to step forward.

Arthur's face gradually turned cold, "I have already given you the opportunity to choose, and those who choose to stay must obey the order, otherwise they will be dealt with by military law." ”

"Wait a minute, I'll go!" a middle-aged man walked out, one of the orcs who served with Joyce.

"I'll go too. Another soldier stepped forward.

As soon as someone took the lead, soldiers came out of the phalanx one after another, and at once fifty or sixty people gathered.

After waiting for a while, seeing that no one was leaving any further, Arthur turned to Jose and said, "Give them three days' worth of our food, and give them another map, and mark their current location and the location of the Terran border." ”

Seeing that Arthur really kept his promise and walked out of the army with another twenty or thirty people, Arthur still did not stop him.

JosΓ© quickly distributed the food and gold coins promised by Arthur to the soldiers who were leaving.

The first man to stand up with the departing soldiers gave Arthur and the remaining men a military salute, turned and walked down the hill.

"Wait. Arthur suddenly spoke.

"Do you want to regret it?" the man immediately turned green with fright.

Arthur smiled contemptuously and pointed to Joyce, who was still lying on the ground pretending to be dead, "Take him away too." ”

The procession descending the mountain gradually moved away.

Arthur's gaze swept back over the soldiers who had been left behind, and he was surprised to find that Silas hadn't left.

"Why didn't you leave?"

Silas' face flushed, "I think it's better to stay with you." ”

Arthur smiled, "You may lack courage, but at least you're a smart man." ”

Arthur spoke to the remaining soldiers again, this time in a much soothing tone, "Some people choose to leave, and I understand that they are not cowardly but want to go home too much. But they didn't make a smart choice, this is the Orc Wasteland, and in this completely unfamiliar environment, they will fall into the hands of the Orcs again in less than three days. ”

There was an uproar below, and some people were already glad that they didn't step out of the phalanx in the end.

Arthur continued, "Those who leave may think that your choice is foolish, after all, every day you stay in the Orc Wasteland is more dangerous. But look at the warriors behind me, they've been fighting in the Orc Wasteland for almost a month, and they've only lost two brothers!"

Why did Arthur specifically point out that the equipment of the soldiers of the seventh squadron completely shocked these soldiers last night, the majestic silver-horned stag mount, the lowest is a third-order weapon, and even many ordinary soldiers have enchanted weapons in their hands, and even the personal guard equipment around the commander is not so perverted.

"Stay, I can't guarantee that each of you will go back alive, but I will try to bring the vast majority of you back alive!

Arthur's words ignited the hope and courage of all the warriors!

From today onwards, what Arthur's sword points to, these warriors will do!
