Chapter 1044: Military Station No. 27 (Part 1, please vote for me)
In the city of Haligad, there is the most famous maple forest.
It is said that the maple forest was specially planted by General Hadou because he once visited the Maple Leaf Danlin and immediately fell in love with the red maples there.
Unfortunately, due to climate reasons, these red maples have never been as beautiful as the red maple forests.
That evening, there was a man standing quietly in the maple forest with his hands behind his back, staring at the bright moon in the sky.
Perhaps because he was a little old, or perhaps because he was still ill, his figure was slightly stooped, and he looked particularly lonely in the large maple forest.
The chirping of insects could be heard all around, and their low singing made the night even quieter.
Immediately, a series of light and delicate footsteps came, breaking the silence of the maple forest.
Then, a clear voice came: "Sir, it's time to take medicine."
As those words fell, a petite and lovely maid walked out from the corner of the alley.
On the tray in her hand was a bowl of steaming hot soup. No matter how far away you were, you could smell the pungent smell coming from the soup.
The man snorted and said calmly: "Okay, let it go."
The maid immediately frowned slightly and said softly: "Sir, it's best to drink the medicine while it's hot~!"
The man couldn't help but sigh softly, and then slowly turned back.
Through the moonlight, you can just see the face of that man, it is the famous general who made all Ruman people fearful, General Hadou.
He smiled bitterly, looked at the little maid, and said: "Lilia, put it down first, I'll drink it later. This thing is really... really bitter..."
Lilia didn't say anything, but tried to widen her eyes, trying her best to imitate the scary expression of the housekeeper's fat aunt. Because among the people she knew, the fat aunt looked the most scary. Every time she stared,
It will scare you so much that you will run very fast.
Looking at her appearance, Hadou couldn't help but smile bitterly again, reluctantly reached out and picked up the bowl of medicinal soup.
He glanced at the medicinal soup, then took a few gulps of it, and then put it down. At this moment, he suddenly felt the eyes of the little maid next to him brighten.
In desperation, he had no choice but to close his eyes and drink all the medicine in the bowl. Then he turned the medicine bowl over, and with a hoarse voice stimulated by the medicine, he hissed: "Is the head office ready now?"
Only then did the little maid show a look of satisfaction in her eyes, and she hurriedly handed over another large glass of honey water.
Hadu took it and whispered "thank you". Then he hurriedly drank a few mouthfuls of honey water and rinsed his mouth vigorously.
While he was busy, the little maid saw a piece of paper in his hand, and some words could be vaguely seen on it. "The enemy, the forward, has arrived..."
Her young face couldn't help but show a worried look. The general was still extremely weak and should have had a good rest, but he was still dealing with military affairs...
But Hadu also noticed where her gaze fell, and couldn't help but sigh softly, shook the document in his hand, and said: "Lilia, what do you think of Lorraine opposite?"
"He is a bad guy~!" Lilia said categorically without hesitation, "Corruption, bribery, land grabbing, using a pretty face to deceive the sincere feelings of ignorant girls, murder and arson, all bad things..."
Hadu couldn't help but laugh. The maid couldn't help but be startled. She tilted her head slightly in confusion and said, "Sir, did I say something wrong?"
Hadu smiled and said: "Then how did I find out that you were reading his book a few days ago?"
The maid's pretty face turned red, but then she said: "I just read the book, and a person who writes well does not mean that he is not a bad guy.
Those who know a few words like this are the worst of all!
Ordinary people are illiterate and don't have that knowledge. No matter how bad they are, they can't be any worse.
And a literate guy like him can use his knowledge to do evil, and he can get out of the circle and then turn around."
Hadu burst out laughing immediately and said: "Actually, he is not that bad. He robbed things and scraped the land and so on, all of which were scraped by the nobles. It is not a bad thing."
The little maid snorted angrily and said: "Why are you shaving the nobles? After he has finished shaving the nobles, when he looks back, those nobles will still have to get worse and scratch the common people again."
It would be better to scrape it directly from the people, at least it would be lighter."
Hadou was speechless.
The maid looked sideways at him, and then asked strangely: "Sir, aren't we enemies with that guy? Why are you suddenly speaking for that bad guy?"
Hadu was silent for a while, and then he sighed softly and said: "Actually, actually, I really want to be friends with him. Alas, maybe it's because I am also a bad person~!"
"Eh...Eh...Eh?"
Hadu said: "I really want to see how that young man is different from others. Why is he so amazing and unique..."
Lilia was speechless for a moment.
If she said bad things about Lorraine again, she would involve the adult who wanted to make friends with Lorraine. But if she wanted to say something good to her, she couldn't do it.
At this moment, a sudden burst of darkness came from the corner.
The darkness was like a thick fog, slowly drifting over.
The thick fog came over little by little, as if it were a living object, but it was surrounded by bright moonlight. This scene was extremely strange.
The maid felt a burst of fear in her heart and couldn't help but take half a step back.
Then, as soon as her eyes blurred, she saw Hadu's figure blocking her in front of her.
She looked at Hadou's tall back and suddenly felt relieved.
At this time, Hadu snorted coldly and said: "Stop pretending to be a fool, show up~!"
The little maid couldn't help but be stunned, and thought to herself: Could that be a person?
Out of curiosity, she boldly and cautiously poked her head out from behind Hadu and looked over.
Then he saw the thick black fog rolling up, and in a few breaths, it turned into a man in black robes wearing a hood.
The little maid's eyes widened immediately. Wasn't that person the one who always followed the general, and when the general was seriously ill, he was often by the young general's side, giving him bad ideas?
When the maids and servants in the mansion gossiped and chatted together, they directly classified this guy into the ranks of white-nosed traitors.
After the man in gray robe appeared, he bowed slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "My lord, weren't you the one who came to see me?"
While speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the little maid.
The maid's eyes suddenly widened in horror.
Although the face of the man in gray robe, which was deeply hidden in the shadow of the hood, could not be seen clearly, one could vaguely see two terrifying eyes that were shining green like phosphorous fire~!
Completely inhuman eyes~!
Those eyes were full of coldness and ferocity, like wild beasts.
She was so frightened that her whole body stiffened, as if she had found a snake crawling over her body while taking a nap.
Hadu stared at him coldly. After a while, he raised his hand, threw the document in his hand, and said slowly: "This is my new plan. According to this..."
He paused for a moment, then sighed softly and said: "Let's execute this..."
The man in gray robe suddenly had a bright light in his eyes. He stared at Hadu's eyes carefully for a long time, then suddenly laughed and said: "As you wish, General~! Jie Jie Jie Jie..."
As he spoke, he waved his long sleeves vigorously.
A burst of black smoke came out, completely covering his figure. Then, the smoke rolled up and turned into a huge bat with blood-red eyes and fangs exposed at the corners of its mouth.
The maid looked at it and screamed in fright. She closed her eyes and huddled tightly behind Hadou, shivering all over her body.
The bat gave the maid a cold look, then flapped its wings and flew into the sky. It disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The little maid was frightened and her mind was confused all the time. She didn't know how she finally got back to the room. But when she was about to fall asleep, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind: Birds of a feather flock together. The general and
Such a terrifying monster cooperates. So is he a good guy or a bad guy...

The weather in Almohad was crisp and clear in October, and a large group of soldiers, carrying weapons, lazily walked along the road.
Ram, Archbishop Santos rubbed his aching thigh, raised his head to look at the dazzling sun above his head, and cursed loudly: "Damn it, it's already October and the weather is still so hot~! I'm going to give him an Almohad
The circle, this damn place, that old bitch Isabella..."
The guard next to him looked at the old man's violent words and slang words from all over the world. He could only bar his teeth and smile bitterly, and thought to himself: I really followed those words, and I've been a bad person for a day.
, study well for three years.
After only a few months of military service, and after spending a lot of time hanging out with those rude Qiu Ba people, the originally elegant and elegant Archbishop Santos became more and more like a veteran.
In the impression of the guards, this tall, handsome, and knowledgeable archbishop used to not even say a dirty word. He was always polite and did not speak loudly at all times. He always had a sweet look on his face.
Like a magic stick... bah bah bah, like a saint smiling sincerely. On a rainy day, you have to be petty bourgeois, very literary young people are sad for most of the autumn and sad for the spring.
But after a few months of fighting, this gentle archbishop became tanned, his voice became thicker, his speech became rude, and his behavior became more and more casual. He rode too much, and his O-shaped bow legs began to appear.
.
He had an unkempt beard on his chin, he had been running around all day, he was sweating all over and there was no place to wash himself, and his whole body was dirty and smelly.
He even often squatted on the ground to eat, and gathered around with his officers, shouting and telling all kinds of dirty jokes.
You must know that in the past, if the fork used by Archbishop Santos was not smooth, it would affect his appetite.
Not to mention the dirt between the nails. If the archbishop's nails were not beautifully trimmed before, it would be like the sky is falling.
The guard secretly made a calculation in his mind. He didn't know if the archbishop's mistresses would go crazy with anger when they saw such an archbishop after they returned, or they would be frightened and stupid. Or, as the archbishop expected now, seeing him
She was so full of manly aura that her delicate body immediately trembled and fell limply under his big pants.
At this time, a burst of cheers broke out from the front of the team, and someone shouted loudly: "We're here, we're here~!"
Archbishop Santos stood up from his horse with his stirrups on, put his hands on his eyes and looked forward, seeing a gray-black city wall in the distance.
The flag of the peacekeeping force is on the city wall, fluttering in the wind.
Archbishop Santos breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said: "Finally we arrived on time. You can take a good hot bath at night."
Because during the exercise, the small universe suddenly exploded. Bishop Santos finally passed the assessment, but he lost too many times. If you really want to talk about it, he is still at the bottom.
Therefore, his troops did not take the main attack mission, but followed behind to eliminate bandits, recruit stragglers from all walks of life, maintain local security and so on.
However, although this kind of task seems simple and does not involve much danger, it is also extremely difficult. Although the scattered Southern Army soldiers or bandits are not many in number, they are running around. Or you have to find someone
A place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack must be defended to the death.
Moreover, they all come in small groups, so it is extremely troublesome to clear them out.
Archbishop Santos worked very hard to deal with them. He often only entered the city once every ten days and a half. He had to take a good rest.
This time, he finally completed the mission and received the order to transfer back the main force. He was overjoyed immediately and without caring much, he pulled the troops out.
After such a long journey, when he saw the military station in front of him and finally had a place to rest, Archbishop Santos felt tired and uncomfortable, itching from top to bottom, and he was so anxious that he would not even want to rest for a moment.
Be patient.
This is a small town marked as Depot No. 27, one of the destinations of the Fourth Army.
As for its original name, it has been ignored for a long time. Everyone calls this small town after Military Station No. 27 because it is called that name on the map.
This is a military material storage and transfer point located behind the battle line. The legions going south must receive sufficient supplies here, and then rush to the battle front several hundred miles away. Such supply stations must be set up every two to three hundred miles.
.
Thanks to the efforts of the engineering troops, the original small town has disappeared and has now become a huge military supply warehouse.
The Fourth Holy See Legion was stationed in a flat area outside the city. Archbishop Santos led several officers from the headquarters and led a long team of carriages to the military station to receive supplies.
This was their last supply before entering the battle line, and Santos didn't dare not be careful.
As we got closer, the first thing we saw was the eye-catching gap in the city wall. Nearby were the rubbles piled up after the city wall collapsed, all of which were blasted open by artillery.
The peacekeeping troops attacked this small town just like they attacked all cities. They fired dozens of artillery pieces at the city wall for more than ten minutes. Of course, the thin wall of the small town could not block the artillery fire.
After the gap was opened, the infantry rushed forward and the city was captured. Because at this time there were few living people near the city wall. The remaining southern troops in the city either fled or surrendered.
The gaps in the city wall were just randomly filled with wood and gravel, so it was easy to climb up.
At the city gate, a group of guards stood behind Juma, waving to Archbishop Santos and the others, and shouted loudly: "Stop, stop, check. Show me your ID."
Archbishop Santos was stunned for a moment, pointed at himself, and said: "We are our own people."
The guard said impatiently: "Nonsense, of course I know he is one of my own."
"How can..."
The guard waved his hand, interrupting what Archbishop Santos was saying, and said in an official tone: "Sir, this is an important military supply area and is responsible for the transportation of supplies for hundreds of thousands of troops. It is extremely important.
The safety here is related to the lives of hundreds of thousands of our Laohe troops. If there is a mistake, the consequences will be disastrous.
There is an order from the summit that everyone must be inspected.
Therefore, I can only apologize, sir."
Archbishop Santos glared at the guard with dissatisfaction. If it were any other soldier who dared to talk to a legion commander like this, Archbishop Santos would have gone up to teach this impolite guy a lesson.
But when meeting this person in charge of logistics, even Archbishop Santos lost his temper. Not only could he not be angry, but he also had to be careful to laugh with him, which made him feel very aggrieved.
Who let these grandchildren hold supplies in their hands?
If they annoy them, although they dare not refuse the quota of supplies, they will find other ways to create trouble for others.
Either pick out items that are about to get moldy, or give away items that have been poorly stored and have been damaged by exposure to wind or sun.
For example, flour infested with worms, rice moldy, dried meat infested with maggots, military uniforms gnawed by rats, and other inferior things.
Those who get it can only admit that they are unlucky and have nowhere to sue.
Even though Lorraine and Grand Duke Julius had clearly defined rewards and punishments in running the army, there was nothing that Grand Duke Lorraine could do about this kind of unspoken rule that was obviously not to be violated.
Mildew and rat infestation of materials are normal losses, which are unavoidable during storage and transportation. Usually whoever suffers from them is unlucky.
A fair way is to divide the goods in turns, 80% of the goods are good and 20% of the goods are defective. If you piss off the logistics, just wait and receive 50% to 60% of the goods.
If you are dissatisfied, even if you take the lawsuit to the peacekeeping force headquarters, there will be no way to comment.
Nowadays, the logistics department is a more untouchable boss than the Military Justice Department and the Military Police.
Archbishop Santos was embarrassed, he had to swallow this breath, and there was nothing he could do if he didn't. If he really took a defective product back, the soldiers would point at him and scold him.
Archbishop Santos jumped off his horse, took out his ID and handed it to the officer next to him.
"It's from the Fourth Army..." The officer flipped through it carefully, then took out a form and said to himself: "The Fourth Army, let me take a look..."
The officer rummaged through the pile of papers as if he was looking for something, but he couldn't find it.
Archbishop Santos sighed secretly, he had seen too many such scenes in recent times.
