Chapter 1 Army Chariots

The walls of Kareni in the setting sun are thick and cold.

This is Kareni, the northernmost city of the Nuolan Empire, and further north is the United Kingdom, the deadly enemy of the empire.

The city of Kareni is majestic and tall, and as the strategic front tooth of the empire, the entire Third Army is stationed.

Although the armistice agreement with the United Kingdom is still in force, incidents of misfires happen almost every day. In this city where the air is filled with the smell of gunpowder, the war may have broken out as soon as we wake up.

The bleak autumn wind rolled up a few strands of sand in the school field, where the training of recruits was carried out.

As early as half a year ago, as one of the five most powerful countries in the Jialan Continent, the Nuolan Empire began to continuously expand its military strength, and the border city of Kareni was naturally no exception.

Da da da.

In the setting sun, a company of about 200 people broke through the wind and sand like a sharp sword, and walked around the school field in neat steps, doing the final sprint training with a weight of [-] kilograms. difference.

"stop."

The company instructor gave the order, and the whole team stopped and stood neatly in less than three seconds. However, after a whole day of intensive training, every soldier's face inevitably looked a little tired.

The company is divided into four columns.

At the head of the third column is a child.

If you don't look carefully, the height of 1.40m can easily make you overlook this kid who has a more obvious backpack than him.

His name is Vega, and his age of 11 is far younger than the average age of the soldiers in this team, which is about 23. Compared with this group of adults, he is completely a child with no hair, but the military uniform that does not fit tell us--

He is a qualified imperial soldier.

The recruit training is coming to an end, and the recruit ceremony will be held tomorrow. Soldiers who can persist in the devilish recruit training until today and not be eliminated are qualified imperial soldiers who can go to the battlefield at any time, even if he is an 11-year-old child. No one dared to underestimate his fighting ability.

"All are there, turn left and walk in unison."

After some lectures, the instructor gave the order to march to the cafeteria.

"Hmm~"

Weijia exhausted all his strength to stand on tiptoe, barely able to see tonight’s dishes through the 1.45m-high dining window, pointing to the unnamed two vegetables and one meat with difficulty with his immature hands. The middle-aged women who work in the cafeteria will give Vega more meals than others with distress.

"What a crime."

"The empire actually sent such a young child to the battlefield."

"Every time I see this kid, I can't help but think of my 13-year-old Tohru."

Listening to the discussion, Veigar didn't show any expression on his immature face. He quietly enjoyed his exhausted dinner in the corner. Meal time was his happiest moment every day.

Perhaps in the eyes of others, he is really pitiful.

He joined the imperial army at the age of 11, but the body of a child has to complete the training volume of an adult every day, and the recruits may be sent to the battlefield at any time after graduation to lose their lives.

But Veigar felt no mercy.

Vega's full name is Li Weijia, and he is an out-and-out earthling.

9 months and 15 days ago.

Veigar deeply remembers that he was still staying at home enjoying the popular game LOL, drinking ice-cold Coke, and blowing on the comfortable air conditioner. By the way, his namesake hero, the evil little mage Veigar, was a thief.

Everything started to change after that 0-30-0 game.

After fainting and waking up again, he found himself turned into an 11-year-old child.

He is only 1.4 meters tall, but he is wearing a tattered long gown that is not warm against the cold even though it is deep winter. The growl of his stomach is constantly torturing the nerves growing under the national flag. When did he suffer this kind of pain? Where is this?

Who knows how he survived that winter.

Born in troubled times and an orphan, he almost starved to death on the streets of Kareni City half a year ago.

Does anyone have mercy on him?

The friction on the border has caused as many street children as Mi in the streets of Kaleni City. Even if he is quite handsome, no one will pity him with a piece of black bread. Only street children in the same situation can hug him for warmth.

When spring came.

Regardless of his companions' obstruction and incomprehension, he chose to volunteer for the army alone.

Although imperial soldiers have good welfare and high status, their training intensity and elimination rate are surprisingly high.

Veigar knew very well that it was impossible to complete high-intensity adult training with a child's body. The best result would be to be eliminated in less than a week, and the most likely thing would be to die during training.

The instructor will not take good care of you just because you are a child. The imperial army follows the cruelest law of the jungle, natural selection, and survival of the fittest. This is why the Nuolan Imperial Army is famous in the Jialan Continent.

Today, half a year later.

He is still alive in this world.

With the body of a child and the soul cultivated in the greenhouse for 18 years, he actually completed all the training and assessments, and finally persisted with the elimination rate of recruits as high as 70.00%, and achieved extremely excellent results.

He won the respect of his comrades and instructors.

----

The next day, at the awarding ceremony.

The instructor put the rank of first class soldier and the badge of outstanding soldier on Weiss, and then gave a military salute.

"Soldier, the glory of the empire be with you!"

"For the glory of the empire!"

Veigar raised his right palm to his temple, the military salute of the empire was no different from that of the earth.

"You are the best soldier in the company. After you are assigned to the army, don't let the name of the company fall."

The instructor rarely showed a satisfied expression, and wanted to pat Weiss on the shoulder, but Weiss' embarrassing height made him helpless and had to salute again: "I wish you good luck."

Returning a military salute, Veigar stepped down from the awarding platform.

Veigar stood still, and took a peek at the tailor-made official military uniform and the outstanding soldier medal on his chest. He knew that he had finally gained a firm foothold in this different world similar to the Western Middle Ages.

Although there is a certain risk of life in a chariot of the army, it also represents an identity and status higher than that of civilians. Not only does it not have to suffer from hunger, but it can also receive a salary from the empire.

And it is different from the rank of ordinary formal soldiers who are only privates.

Graduated as an outstanding soldier, he started with the rank of first class, which meant that he would not be assigned to the cannon fodder unit, but would be assigned to the backbone unit as an elite.

What is the backbone force?

The backbone force means that as long as a full-scale war does not break out, there is generally no need to participate in the war. Although the border is not peaceful now, the Empire and the United Kingdom have not broken their faces, only a slight friction.

Veigar finally ushered in his own spring.

Alive.

A smooth life.

Traveling through another world, Vega, who almost starved to death on the streets, only had these two wishes left in his heart.
