The drinking continues in the cabin.
The red-bearded man suddenly said: "Old HU, isn't this bad? The casualty rate at Lin dong Lake is too high. If this kid really has an accident here, you won't be able to explain it to the higher ups."
Huge drank a drink himself and replied angrily: "When you come to my place, you are here to serve as a soldier. When you are a soldier, you will inevitably suffer casualties. I don't support young masters and uncles here."
"Students from Guano Academy come to us just to get gold-plated. You just give them the munitions department. They want your favor at home, and maybe they can help our regiment with some military supplies? You can give them to them now. Go to Lin dong Lake, if he dies there, you don't know who will cause trouble for you in the future?"
Huge suddenly looked at Red Beard and laughed.
"Why are you laughing?"
"When did you, a rough guy like you, Redbird, learn how to use connections as a nobleman?"
Red Beard spit into the stove rudely, "Fuck, I'm worried about you. If it weren't for your bad temper, it would have been your turn to be the division commander."
HU Ge smiled and waved his hand, "Brother, you still don't understand. He was sent here so early. He must have been ostracized by the family. If he really has connections from above, he will be arranged to be here with us?"
Hongbeard thought for a moment and nodded repeatedly, "You are still smart."
Arthur, who has nothing to do with him, doesn't understand the inside story. Although according to regulations, all students will be sent to the field corps for training, there is a lot of room for maneuver.
The five major field legions of the Kingdom of Isaac are the War song Legion stationed in the southwest, the Snow and Frost Legion stationed in the northwest, the Blazing Legion stationed in the southeast, and the Tail Army stationed in the northeast.
The two legion defense zones of Blazing Fire and Iron Current are bordering the human kingdom, and there are rarely wars in peacetime. Therefore, many noble families will try their best to operate the academy relationship and send their children to these two legions for training.
Although the three legions of War Song, Dengue, and Frost and Thunder are all bordering the Orc Wasteland, there are differences among them.
Because the southwest region of the kingdom has the tall Orlando Mountains as a barrier, historically there have been few large-scale orc legions crossing the mountains to invade the inland areas of the human race. Most of them were harassed by small groups of orcs. Although there are wars in the War song Legion, most of them are large troops targeting small groups of orcs, so the risk is not too great.
The northwest region of the kingdom is already the remnant of the Orlando Mountains, and has no terrain advantage. Most of the large-scale wars between humans and orcs are initiated from the northwest region. This is why the two major field legions of Dengue and Frost and Thunder are stationed in the northwest region. . Once on a battlefield of this scale, it is a matter of life and death.
Even if you are unable to use your relationship with the Guano Academy and are unfortunately assigned to the Dengue and Frost thunder legions, you can still use your relationship with the army to keep your children in less dangerous departments such as staff, military supplies, and logistics. Only students who have no connections or have offended forces they cannot afford to offend will be sent to the most dangerous frontline troops.
As the saying goes, there are policies above and countermeasures below. His Majesty Stacey's original intention of cultivating and tempering the true aristocratic will was turned into a gilded and formality by the people below. Even so, the nobles who go through the motions in the field army are more than a little bit better than the nobles who live in the rich dens all day long.
Arthur naturally didn't know so much inside information. The so-called hot-blooded young man, at this time, Arthur was still immersed in the excitement of being able to go to the front line and fight the orcs with real swords and guns.
When Huger's lieutenant led Arthur out of the military camp and continued walking into the woods, Arthur realized that his station was not here.
Huge's lieutenant is called Nick. He is a young man who is a few years older than Arthur. He has a baby face and a very pleasant appearance.
Seeing Arthur's confusion, Nick took the initiative to explain, "This is the regiment headquarters, and only half of the brothers are stationed. Our regiment's defense area is 200 miles along the cedar forest, so we set up guard posts every 15 miles, totaling 200 miles in the cedar forest." 15 guard posts have been set up on the front line. Each guard post is stationed by a squadron, and the seventh squadron you are responsible for is stationed near Lake Lin dong."
Arthur was clear that he would be leading a squadron. The establishment of the Kingdom's field army is a small team of ten, three small teams make up a squadron, three squadrons make up a large team, and the full strength of the large team is one hundred people. Except for a few recruits in the army, the soldiers are generally second-level warriors. Third-level warriors can serve as squad leaders. Arthur's fourth-level warrior's combat prowess is the basic requirement for a squadron leader.
"Your daily duty is to patrol the defense line and prevent orc spies and small groups of orcs from infiltrating. Once these guys bypass our defense line, they will attack the people in the villages behind. If there is a large-scale attack by orcs, you do not need to intercept it. But we must issue an alarm as soon as possible." Along the way, Nick very enthusiastically introduced Arthur to the garrison situation of the troops.
Arthur remembered them all one by one. Unlike the martial artist department where Gold was in, professors in the magic department would not teach students the theory of leading troops in battle, because the role of magicians in the army has always been to output powerful firepower, not to be generals who lead troops.
"The Lin dong Lake you are in is an ice-free lake. Because of the water source, orcs have been very active in that area recently. You have to be careful." Nick instructed very enthusiastically.
"Be careful!" Arthur suddenly grabbed Nick.
In front of the foot that Nick was about to take a step forward was a huge animal trap with a few dead branches scattered on it, which served as a simple disguise.
Nick wiped his sweat and said, "Thank you. I was so busy talking that I didn't pay attention to my steps. Your guardhouse is almost here. Those guys must have done it."
Arthur smiled and said, "I should thank you for telling me so much. You can show me the way from behind, and I'll walk in front."
"You?"
Arthur walked forward, directly under Nick's surprised gaze.
In the next few hundred meters, the two of them encountered four traps one after another, including traps, nooses, sky nets, and warning bells. Arthur circumvented them all perfectly.
Nick discovered that this lieutenant who was younger than himself was not as simple as it seemed.
How did he know that Arthur had been following hunter Angus for three years? These traps were too childish for professional hunters.
Arthur suddenly stopped again, and a beautiful large bow appeared in his hand like a magic trick. He instantly drew the bow and knocked an arrow, and the tip of the arrow was aimed at the treetops in front of him.
"Nick, where did you bring such a powerful boy?" A thin warrior appeared from the branches of the tree, also holding a bow in his hand.
Nick smiled, "Monkey, let your people gather together, I will bring you a new leader!"
