On the Seven Towers

Chapter 452: Encountering a Runaway Slave

A team from Montenegro was marching on the road leading to Arano. The soldiers in this team were dressed completely differently from the locals. Everyone was wearing camouflage uniforms and carrying rifles, marching like an army that had traveled through time and space. In a foreign land.

Everyone in the team is riding a horse and the speed is very fast. The leader is Huang Zheng, who has been promoted to company commander. A group of old friends around him, Garcia, Enrique and Wu Qi are all in the team. Next to Huang Zheng is his old boss Ji Yijun. He is the only one in the team not wearing camouflage uniforms. He joined the support army as a loaned expert.

After Chen Hansheng captured Arano, he sent the noble prisoners to the rear and explained the complexity of the current situation in this town. At the same time, he asked the rear to send another support force to prevent revenge from the Duke of Greenwood City. This team of more than 100 people is the first support army.

After half a year of construction, the guard battalion has begun to expand into a guard regiment. They selected a group of better-performing activists from among the freedmen and slaves absorbed by the school. Using the soldiers from the original guard camp as the backbone, they more than tripled the team and formed a sizable team.

Although the support force is small in number, all members are equipped with air rifles, and more than twenty of them have combat professions.

A few months have passed, and various magic and fighting spirit training methods have been harvested. Mages and warriors such as Xiao Chen, Luo Ling, Mao Kai, Qin Mu and Chen Hansheng who have taken the lead have summarized their theories and experiences. The school's magic and fighting spirit education It has begun to slowly bear fruit. Among these people, Huang Zheng and Wu Qi were already low-level mages. They and eight other mages formed a battle mage class directly under the guard group. These mages have all learned the same combat magic. The researchers of the magic team hope that through coordinated operations, they will have an overwhelming combat effect on the battlefield.

In terms of warriors, in addition to Ji Yijun who is an intermediate warrior, Enrique's flying dragon bloodline has also advanced to the intermediate level. Ten of the other warriors have become low-level warriors. Although they are all low-level warriors, the warriors of these escort groups are very different from the low-level warriors of other forces on the mainland. Low-level warriors of other forces are often assigned as officers in the army, but the Chinese gather these warriors for reconnaissance Used by soldiers or special forces.

The military chief still selects the warriors with the best military qualities, the most political reliability, and sufficient management capabilities. Because even in this world where personal abilities can exceed imagination, both Wang Jiyuan and other committee members already believe that the power of the military still comes from the organization, not the individual.

"The Duke of Greenwood City is certainly powerful among the surrounding lords. But the biggest problem for these feudal lords is that their standing army is limited. Most of the power needs to be drawn from various small lords. It takes a long time just to gather the troops. Time." Huang Zheng said with Ji Yijun riding beside him.

Ji Yijun held the reins and nodded: "If we can get intelligence in advance, we should take the initiative to defend the enemy from the country. If we can kill them on the road, that town will not have to go through another battle."

Huang Zheng said: "The manpower of the intelligence team went down with the caravan a week ago and watched the movements in the territories of several lords below him. So once there is an army gathering, we will know about it soon."

"Since Zhou Xiaoren was driven away to farm, the efficiency of the intelligence team that Peng Ziyi took over has really improved a lot." Ji Yijun praised, "I don't have a professional background, but I am serious and public-minded. What I have done is not Same thing. Zhou Xiaoren did all kinds of bad things before, but Team Leader Luo was so good that he forced him into the fertilizer factory."

The two were about to deduce the details of the attack halfway when a soldier came up and reported: "Company Commander! There is a person lying down from the bottom of the hillside in front."

"Let's go and have a look!" Ji Yijun said.

Lying on the side of the road was a young man, who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old. He was wearing very shabby linen clothes, with many damages and scratches on his body and stains on his face.

"Still alive." Ji Yijun dismounted to check and put his hand on his forehead. "The fever is severe. Enrique, Garcia, move him to the open space over there first."

"This is a runaway slave. Did you see the brand under his collarbone? He must have escaped from the surrounding noble territories. There are rich mineral resources near Arano, and there are many mine owners who buy slaves to mine. This is one of them."

He waved back and said, "Wu Qi, come and see if there is any healing magic that can be used."

"You boy, the person who commanded me is not ambiguous. Who is the company commander?" Huang Zheng laughed and scolded.

"I'm commanding my apprentice and my girlfriend, it's none of your business!"

Wu Qi and the hygienist checked the boy's body together and said: "This child was frightened, overworked, and was cold at night, so he caught a cold. It is estimated that his legs were soft and slipped when he went downhill, and he rolled down this slope. After a while, he passed out. I first performed a disease treatment, and then treated a few larger wounds to stabilize his body. Then, after we camped, we gave him a body wash and fed him something hot. "I think he will recover."

Huang Zheng nodded and said: "We will walk another ten kilometers today and we will soon camp. Garcia, you can hold him while riding and be careful with your movements."

"Captain, this guy is dirty, but my clothes are brand new. Just find a ready horse and tie him to the horse's back, right?" Garcia muttered. The boy had a lot of unknown stains on his body, and he hadn't taken a shower for many days. He smelled sour.

"How can this be? He is a wounded soldier, and it is too dangerous. Just bear with it for a while." Huang Zheng said.

Ji Yijun slapped him on the back of his head, "A few months ago, you were still a mud monkey jumping up and down. It's only been a few days since you came down from the tree? You have become a young master? What are you so particular about?!"

"How can I be like him..." Garcia tilted his head and said.

"What did you say?"

"Yes, Master."

"This is called the close relationship between the army and the people, do you hear me!" Seeing Garcia frowning and looking at him, Ji Yijun said, "It seems that I have to advise Lao Huang to strengthen ideological and political education. The consciousness is too poor."

"Forgive me." Garcia quickly picked up the unconscious boy and climbed back on the horse. After having fighting spirit, these movements were very neat and clean.

Ji Yijun looked at Huang Zheng with some pride, and the latter smiled and said: "Garcia, you take care of him first, and let your master take over for you later. Today, you two will set an example for everyone. Also, after the camp is set up, you two will be responsible for bathing and changing his clothes."
