"Where's the trumpeter?! Wasn't Kouri still here just now?" Company Commander Green asked looking for someone.

"Here it is here!"

The shorter little soldier Koli held his trumpet and ran over with his hat on his hand and said.

"Let's play a prelude, give the soldiers a head start, and let the folks listen." Company Commander Green said with a smile.

"That tune? Comrade Green?" Curry asked, taking out a small harmonica from his pocket.

"It's the song 'Unity'."

A smooth prelude was played, followed by a very powerful singing voice.

"unity is strength!"

"unity is strength!"

The soldiers sang loudly, the singing was simple and straightforward, and with a burst of vitality, it attracted all the nearby villagers to listen to the singing of these soldiers.

"This strength is iron, this strength is steel!"

"Harder than iron and stronger than steel!"

Some companies sang again, and the singing one after another was interspersed in the marching route, filling the place with singing.

"Fire at the devils and let all undemocratic systems die!"

"To Dipolo, to freedom, to Shine Yuta!"

The villagers clapped their hands and applauded, and some brave villagers even took food to feed these young warriors.These young and lovely warriors did not fight to defend a certain emperor or a certain king, it was they who they wanted to defend.

"Comrades have worked hard, let's eat some fruit! The specialty of our village!"

A representative of the village collective came out carrying a basket of apples, and together with the president of the women's representative committee beside him, they were going to distribute them to the soldiers.

"Ah! No way! Comrade, we have discipline, and we can't take needles and threads from fellow villagers!"

When the captains saw that the representative wanted to share the fruit, they quickly refused, and then called to Company Commander Green to help.

"Oh (three beeps)! It's not what you asked us for. It's not a needle or a thread. It's grown in our own yard." The group representative evaded.

"That's not okay, comrade, we have discipline. If soldiers want to eat fruit, they will report it to them before buying it. But you can't take things from the folks, no matter what the reason!" A squad leader firmly refused.

"It's no big deal. It doesn't cost much to buy just such a little fruit." The representative said helplessly.

"Yeah, just take it, this is also the wish of our farmers..." the president of the women's representative association said helplessly.

"Comrade, it's like this." Company Commander Green came up and said with a smile.

"This is one of the signs that differentiates our First Army from the old army. We resolutely do not take anything from the masses, adhere to discipline, and cannot relax in the slightest." Company Commander Green explained.

"Furthermore, comrades have a rich menu, and you can eat fruit every two weeks. If comrades need it, they will respond to the soldier committee and buy fruits for everyone to use. So everyone is not short of fruits , can be eaten.” Captain Green said with a smile.

"Comrades come to us to sing! Come on, let me start first: all revolutionary soldiers must keep in mind..."

Company Commander Samuel over there also fell into the same "dilemma". As a last resort, he could only organize the soldiers to sing military songs to show their determination.

"First, obey the command in all actions, and march..."

"Second, don't take the masses with a needle..."

"Third, everything captured and seized must be returned to the public..."

The soldiers sang together to express their resolute style of not taking a single needle and thread and their determination to fight against the enemy. The villagers carried the basket no matter how they sent it, but no one took it back. Many villagers even cried anxiously. Feeling useless, not providing any help to these lovely people, I sat on the ground in shame and cried.

"If you don't accept it, how can I explain to the old people in the village? Comrade, you don't know. If they know that I haven't given it away, they will come here with a hoe. They are more difficult than us." The village representative said helplessly.

"Hey, that's it, comrade, I'll buy it." Company Commander Green took out a large copper coin from his military uniform and said.

"You... Comrade, this little fruit can't cost this money." The village representative quickly evaded, after all, this is not a small amount, and it has far exceeded the price of these fruits.

"Such a good fruit is worth the price." Green smiled, and called out to the correspondent in the company.

"Correspondent! Do me a favor, send it to the cook, and improve the food at noon!"

"No, no, no, I'm determined not to take any money. Doesn't this mean that I'm taking advantage of the army?" Just as the village representative was about to continue entanglement, a young girl ran towards them and yelled at them. .

"Auntie! Uncle! Those soldiers who came to our house to drink water kept carrying water for us after eating water! Grandpa can't persuade us no matter how hard he is!"

"It's broken, we've been attacked from front to back!" The village representative wanted to go back but also wanted to return the money. Captain Green ran away in a hurry while not paying attention, and led the team to stride forward again, singing.

"The second transaction price must be fair..."

......

Dirty songs full of obscenity were sung among the light infantry, who whistled flirtatiously when they saw a woman passing by, and even stepped forward to tease them.A few armored infantry broke through the dilapidated gate, forced their way in and plundered wantonly like robbers.They started kicking the door again, trying to kick open the door of the house.The owner of the house resisted desperately and tried his best to prevent these soldiers and bandits from breaking in.Fortunately, a company commander rode a horse and yelled a few times outside, and the armored infantrymen carried the things they had snatched from the yard, cursing unhappily, and went out to return to the team.

There are also unlucky ones, the door was knocked open.The infantrymen came in aggressively to the robbers, looking for everything they could take away.After more than a year of independent stationing, the military discipline of the Fafnir Legion has almost become a decoration.The legionnaires, who were already fond of disturbing the people, intensified under the deliberate connivance of the officers. They had no scruples at all, even more robbers and bandits than bandits.

"My lord, our village has never missed a single tax payment. Can you be merciful?"

The old farmer knelt on the ground in despair, begging tremblingly to the officer in front of him.

"What are you? The village head (landlord) of your village didn't say anything, so you dare to point fingers? I think you old bastard is a red bandit! You dare to talk nonsense with their support!"

An officer on horseback brandished his whip and lashed at the old farmer, cursing angrily.

"You can't do this!" The old farmer didn't even dare to resist, so he could only beg.

"My lord, the soldiers need to regain their spirits. After all, the battle is imminent, and this village is close to the border of the Red Bandits..." the deputy general whispered to the army chief.

"En." The legion leader nodded lazily, neither agreeing nor objecting. This is his usual style. Once the legion leader expresses this, it means that he can "play" at will.

"The Fifteenth Army, come quickly, come and drive these bandits away!" A young man huddled in a corner of the house, watching everything in front of him and shouted angrily in his heart.

In the village, the fire burned even more vigorously, not only burning on the road, but also burning in the hearts of the farmers.

160 Tit for Tat

Rest is also very important. It was almost noon that day, and it was almost twelve o'clock.With a sound of orders, the troops began to stop and prepare to rest.The meals for the cooks were almost ready. Although the meals were not generous, they satisfied all the soldiers. After all, in the past, no matter whether it was in the old army or in the countryside, they could not eat such good meals.

The Yongdalimdo Plain is a fertile soil suitable for farming. Sometimes Sun Boyang can't help but nod when he looks at the geographical map of Yongdalim, thinking that if Yongdalim has the same intricate landforms such as mountains and hills, it is probably the first place. The food and treatment of the army will be the same.

The troops were resting on the spot near Pinghai City, and the soldiers were waiting in groups before the meal, and sat on the broken stones everywhere nearby. Everyone was chatting, talking about the next battle method, actively Make suggestions for your team.

"Comrade Molk, tell me, why do you want us to fix this soldiers' committee? We have just learned to read, and we have to give advice to the company commander. Isn't this adding to the chaos of the company commander?" An ordinary young soldier Sitting on a small rock, he asked the young man in front of him.

"It's a democratic republic." Comrade Molk has a very handsome and very gentle face, holding the book "On Guiding the Construction of Democracy in China" issued by Sun Boyang just a week ago in his hand, and said to the soldiers in front of him with a smile .

"In the previous army, the company commander and platoon leader had the final say. Mr. Sun Boyang felt that this was very bad and not conducive to democracy in the army. So there were company committees, platoon committees, etc., and we soldiers. Committee."

"The soldiers' committee is to supervise, propose, and assist in combat and training. For example, if the company commander takes an apple from the cooking class, the soldiers' committee must play a supervisory role. When the battle starts, tactics must be formulated. We have to come up with our own ideas, brainstorm and come up with the best way to fight the war."

"For example, if you feel that the food is not good, you feel that the amount of training is too much, and you feel that it is necessary to organize cultural and artistic activities, that is the role of the Soldiers Committee. In general, it is no different from the democratic republic we advocate. It is everyone's discussion. .” Mork laughed again, and said with one hand on his leg and the other on his leg.

"Oh, once you explain it like this, I can understand it, that is to say, in the future, what the company commander says doesn't matter, and I have the final say!" The young soldier said mischievously.

The other soldiers around burst into laughter. The company commander Green stood behind them and listened for a long time. He waited until the young soldier spoke mischievously before taking action. He pressed the young soldier's shoulder hard, making him Grinning his teeth, he begged for mercy repeatedly.

"You kid, I've been thinking too much." Green also laughed and pressed the soldier a few more times, before finally letting him go and telling everyone.

"Prepare to eat, line up and go in order. If the surveillance catches you messing around, I will let you run another five kilometers to the place tonight."

The soldiers got up and lined up to eat, Mork also put away the booklets and prepared to stand up to eat, Green reached out to stop him, and sat by his side to chat with him for a while.

"Why do you think the Tenth Army came to attack us?" Company Commander Green asked.

"Isn't everyone talking about the army of the Democratic Republic? Why is it suddenly not with us?"

Company Commander Green was also very puzzled. After all, the Central Province’s consistent propaganda is still in accordance with the "Charter". Since they all say that the army abides by the Charter, why do they want to beat themselves?

"Does that need to be said?" Molk stood up and took his own bowl and said to the company commander.

"It's nothing more than warlords who are chaotic. They are full of slogans, but in fact they can join forces with their original enemies to fight us."

"People like us are probably still in the minority." Molk sighed.

......

"For this march, we must lose the courage of the enemy!"

An officer wearing white gloves and holding a goblet congratulated the Howard regiment commander in front of him.

"Everyone, I'm honored. The encirclement and suppression of the rebels depends on the merits of the generals. Without everyone's dedication, it will not work." The commander of Howard's army also raised his glass in response.

"General, as long as we seize the territory of the rebels, our Fafnir Legion will be the most powerful legion in the entire Central South." Another officer also raised his glass.

"I'm afraid there are still many inappropriate things about attacking the [-]th Army this time?" An old general retorted in a low-faced voice.

"General Derek, what do you mean?" the officer asked with a gloomy face.

"Although the Fifteenth Army refused to obey the transfer order, it was the result of the central government negotiating peace with the nobles first. Originally, our army and the Fifteenth Army went hand in hand and went northward to attack the nobles, but now it is not good. Instead, they are going to fight against each other." Derek The general said disdainfully.

"Are you sympathizing with them?" The officer was about to get angry, and he asked General Derek.

"I just don't think it's necessary!" General Derek was also very stubborn, glaring back angrily.

"At the beginning, it was agreed to establish a democratic republic, but now? We actually want to make peace with the nobles. Then why did we revolt?"

"General Derek!" Captain Howard stretched out his hand to stop the quarrel.

"General Derek, don't say any more." The commander of Howard's army pretended to be gentle and comforted.

"The Fifteenth Army refused to obey the order, and sent troops to plunder the people (landlords), and even blackmailed the Adventurer's Union to control them. We can't fight these bandits, after all, we have to rescue those people." Howard Legion Said long falsely.

"Especially the traitor Sun Boyang, who conspired to assassinate His Majesty and launched a strike. If he is not arrested, how can the common people be outraged?" The officer also straightened his waist and sang the opposite tune.

"A powerful family is also considered a commoner?" General Derek laughed in a low voice with disdain.

"General Derek, your thoughts are dangerous?" Another officer hinted coldly.

"You mean I'm disloyal to the Legion?" General Derek asked back.

"I didn't mean that." The officer quickly changed his face and said.

"I didn't either." Seeing General Derek turn his gaze over, another officer quickly stated his position.

"Back then, you were my little soldiers, but now you dare to challenge me." General Derek sneered.

"General, don't get angry with them." Howard's army commander said kindly again.

"Generals, the battle is imminent, we must fight with one heart, and don't mess up our own positions." Commander Howard ordered again.

......

Seeing the back of Derek's last departure, several officers couldn't help complaining to Howard.

"Who does he think he is? Or the former regiment commander?" An officer said angrily.

"My lord, this old guy is confused. You must not hand over the Musketeers to him as commander." Another officer also shouted angrily.

"Of course I know." Captain Howard said while sitting on the recliner lazily.

"Of course there is a way."

......

"Still nothing?"

"Yes, still nothing."

"Exploring again, exploring again."

The commanders stood in front of the map thinking about each other, and constantly receiving the latest news to change tactics, thinking about how to win.

"The enemy army is very strange." Migucci put down the charcoal pencil in his hand and scratched his head.

"Accordingly, 1 can see their traces no matter what, but why haven't they reached this generation yet? It's impossible to say that they fell into a puddle, right?" Migucci said in confusion.

"Yes, according to our calculated marching speed, we should be able to reach the estimated location." Penny also scratched his head and felt very confused. What's the situation?It's the equivalent of a guy giving another boxer a fight, only to disappear the next morning.

"Could it be a natural disaster or something?" Fyodor took off his gloves, picked up the iron tank next to him and asked, taking a sip of water.

"Although the Fafnir Legion has been much worse than before in more than a year, it should not be unable to march because of such a small problem." As soon as Migucci finished speaking, a correspondent ran in and gave several commanders After making a report, he brought the latest information to Migucci.

"Is this weird?"

"what happened?"

"The cavalry regiment expanded its search area, but still couldn't find it." Migaucci replied.

"Then it's not a matter of delay, no matter how slow it is, it should have arrived soon." Fyodor said.

"It can't be delayed." Deputy Commander Rebio walked back from the big map hanging on the wall with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice.

"Once this side falls into stagnation and delay, the first-line defense of Kunqi Mountain and the first-line defense of Emenguan will be dangerous. We must make a quick decision and seek a decisive battle." Rebio said.
