Some people know Ren Ning's whereabouts very well, while others know nothing about it.
For example, Gu Datou.
When he came to help move things, he was still asking Ren Ning why he stayed at the scout camp and didn't go out for activities.
"Old Ren, our Eighth Cavalry Battalion is holding activities these evenings. If you come over to play, you will definitely kill everyone."
Ren Ning chuckled.
Rock Frontier Fortress is indeed a large military camp, but it is not without any entertainment.
Especially at night when there is no way to train in the dark, several battalions usually join forces to carry out activities. The literary ones are better than the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting; the martial arts are even more, such as wrestling, archery, swordsmanship...
These activities can kill time, liven up the atmosphere and get to know each other's minions.
Maybe when you go out to fight, these companions you meet accidentally can save your life.
This is how Ren Ning's predecessor met Gu Datou from the Eighth Battalion.
It's just that there are only a small number of scouts and they often go out on missions, so they rarely participate in such social activities.
Ren Ning smiled: "In the future, there will be a chance."
He has now transferred to the Starfall Legion, where the daily routine is relatively regular, and there will be no shortage of such social activities in the future.
After saying that, Ren Ning walked around the courtyard.
He doesn't have many personal belongings. Together with Gu Datou, they can easily move it all in one ride.
However, Gao Deming specially came over to name and suppress the training equipment that was built by Tie Tiangong.
"Go, go. These are things from our scout camp." Gao Deming shooed him away like a fly.
Ren Ning couldn't laugh or cry.
He has the blueprints. At most, he can ask Tie Tiangong to build a set of these training equipment. Anyway, it's free of charge.
But it takes time to build. Last time, it took Tie Tiangong a full month to build the most basic elements. Ren Ning only spent less than two months, and he was a little unwilling to get the scout battalion in vain.
"General, are these training equipment still useful?" Ren Ning asked.
Gao Deming shook his head and said without conscience: "It's not easy to use. It not only takes up space but also wastes the iron of the fortress."
"But something is better than nothing. We don't dislike things that are not easy to use. We will make do with them at worst."
Ren Ning seemed as if he hadn't heard anything.
"These are just the most basic physical training equipment. As a warrior, it is not enough to have well-developed limbs and a simple mind. I have also thought about some upgraded equipment, which I call professional training equipment."
"Professional training equipment?" Gao Deming hesitated.
"Yes!" Ren Ning nodded: "For example, based on the characteristics of a certain person, through training with these professional equipment, we can maximize his advantages, highlight his characteristics, and make each person a unique sharp knife."
"Is there such equipment?" Gao Deming didn't believe it.
Ren Ning said nothing and just raised his telescope.
Nima!
Gao Deming looked at the monocular telescope in Ren Ning's hand and almost drooled.
He once tried a telescope and was immediately shocked. He felt that the legendary clairvoyance was nothing more than that.
As a scout, General Deyong is, to put it bluntly, a scout instructor. Gao Deming knows better than anyone how useful a pair of binoculars can be for a scout.
It's definitely a sea change.
Although when he talked to Ren Ning yesterday, he said that most of the Xiliang scouts who turned into horse thieves were killed by the Kailun tribe, Gao Deming even suspected that it was actually Ren Ning who killed them.
It's just that this guy knows how to hide his clumsiness and puts the credit on the Kailun tribe.
No reason, just because Ren Ning has a telescope and a strong bow in his hand.
It's not surprising that a top-notch scout can create some miracles with such an artifact in his hand.
Even Gao Deming suspected that the reason why the Starfall Legion came to the scout camp every day like a pug to ask about Ren Ning's return date was because they were interested not only in his personal strength, but also in the various weird ideas in Ren Ning's mind.
.
"Forget it." Gao Deming sighed.
"Since these equipments are what you kid has spent so much time and effort on, it really doesn't make sense for our scout camp to use them in vain. I'll find someone to estimate their value later and give them to you as a reward."
"That's fine." This was what Ren Ning was waiting for, and he nodded with satisfaction.
It's not impossible to dismantle the training equipment in front of you and move it to the Starfall Legion.
It's just that it would be bad if other people in the Starfall Legion felt that he looked down on the legion's training equipment.
Moreover, the fortress has been established for such a long time, and various reward and punishment measures are complete. There are rules for how much reward you should get for inventing a new thing.
Of course, just like collecting new herbs, if Gao Deming and Mrs. Zhang value these equipments as much, the rewards will naturally be much greater.
"The upgraded version..." Gao Deming came over and asked with a face.
Ha ha!
Ren Ning said politely, "That goes without saying. After all, the scout camp is also our mother's family, isn't it? We have produced good things, so of course we can't forget our mother's family."
This is just right.
Gao Deming patted his arm with satisfaction, gave him a few words of cordial encouragement, then turned around and left.
The Starfall Legion that Ren Ning transferred will be transferred to other places to guard the border next year. Although he will still be a soldier of the empire by then, he will no longer be a part of the Rock Frontier Fortress.
If Ren Ning submits the new things he tinkered with to the fortress, he will naturally have a share in the scout battalion.
But if he only gives the stuff to the Starfall Legion, it's hard to say whether the Starfall Legion will take it out to improve the overall strength of all the legions in the fortress.
After all, there is competitive pressure between legions. Stronger combat effectiveness can gain greater attention from the empire. In turn, the treatment and status received by legions will be better.
Therefore, it is only normal that each legion will work hard to recruit various talents under its banner while hiding its own details and secret weapons.
With this thought in mind, Ren Ning left the scout camp.
The Starfall Legion is stationed in the east of the fortress, quite far away from the scout camp.
He and Gu Datou led two horses and just arrived at the legion station. The forward general Guan Luping got the news and greeted him at the entrance of the station early.
"Finally our long-awaited archer Brother Ren is here." Guan Luping took a few steps and patted Ren Ning on the shoulder, "Come in quickly."
"Thank you, General." Ren Ning saluted quickly.
Guan Luping, as the forward general of the Xingluo Legion, has a real general rank. A plaque with the words "XX General's Mansion" can be hung on the door of his hometown openly.
And Gao Deming, as the Deyong General of the Scout Battalion, although there is also the word "general" in his position, his hometown can only have the word "Gaofu" on it.
The two are completely different.
For such a person to specially come to greet an unknown person like Ren Ning was to give him a huge amount of face.
For a moment, the soldiers passing by were curious about Ren Ning's identity and looked at him frequently.
"Relax!" Guan Luping was very happy to see Ren Ning Zhi's advance and retreat, "My general still lacks some personal guards. I wonder if little brother Ren is willing to come over?"
Ren Ning was overjoyed and stood at attention without hesitation, "Ren Ning is willing, thank you General for your favor."
The general's bodyguard is not something ordinary soldiers can join casually.
After all, to protect the safety of the general, the personal guards not only need superior force, but also absolute loyalty.
But relatively speaking, the benefits are huge. At least when the top players have something to gain, they will give priority to those with low eyelids. Sooner or later, they can be upgraded, get a salary increase, or even take command of a side.
Therefore, as soon as he joined the Starfall Legion, Ren Ning became Guan Luping's personal guard.
It was no longer just one step up, but one step to the sky, several steps up.
