When the remnants of this scout cavalry returned to the garrison of the Thirteenth Cavalry Corps, everyone's faces showed a slight lightening.
Naturally, the military information brought back was presented by the scout captain according to the system in the army, and Char was brought back to the personal guard by Kevin.
Watching the scout cavalry who had fought side by side silently leave and return to the camp, Char's heart was suddenly a little blocked, and everyone barely spoke when they came back on the way, and an invisible fire burned badly in Char's heart, and it burned more and more.
Watching the scout cavalry leave, Char looked at the back of the captain He suddenly felt lucky.
At least, the old guy died in bed, and he could bury him with his own hands.
And the captain's son, in order to hurry back, did not even have time to bury the body Char and Kevin didn't get time to rest, they had just returned to the tent after they were in the personal guard, and before they could untie their armor belts, someone outside came to spread the word: The general wants to see them, now.
When he came to General Adric's tent for the second time, Char immediately felt that the atmosphere was different.
At the door of the big tent, the number of pro-guards on duty doubled, and everyone's faces were full of pre-war tension.
While waiting for the briefing, Char and Kevin were standing outside the tent, and they heard angry shouts from the tent, followed by a fierce quarrel.
A moment later, several generals came out of the tent, and Char recognized one of them as Butler, the flag officer of the Third Banner Regiment of the silver-haired middle-aged man he had seen last time, and the others must have been the generals of the Banner Regiment under the 13th Cavalry Corps.
When the seven or eight people strode out, everyone looked different, some were worried, some were full of care, and some were full of anger in their eyes.
When they walked over, Kevin immediately pulled Char a little, and the two stepped back, beating their chests and saluting.
After these people were far away, looking at the doubts on Char's face, Kevin said: "It must be a pre-war meeting, and it is common for the following flag groups to grab up for who is playing the striker."
Looking at the look of Butler's flag officer, it is likely that this striker opportunity has fallen into his hands. ” The map on the wall of the tent had been painted in a variety of colors, and some dense military symbols had been marked on various regions, and the symbols had been painted in various colors.
As soon as Char saw this map, which seemed to have been changed beyond recognition, he was suddenly stunned, and subconsciously took a few more looks This seems to be a symbol of a military map, I remember that the old guy's collection of books has a special description of these things, Char watched it fun when he was a child, and once took a map of the wildfire field and scribbled it for a while.
Well, the square symbol represents your station, the circle symbol represents the logistics facility, and the dotted line represents the logistics transportation line.
There are also all triangles representing the height of the hills, and the elliptical type representing low-lying areas.
Some areas on the map are marked with small green flags to indicate safe areas that have been searched.
In some places, small crosses are drawn, indicating that there have been small-scale skirmishes with the enemy.
Char couldn't help but be a little distracted, and it wasn't until Kevin next to him pulled him that he came back to his senses.
Char looked up and saw General Adric looking at him with an interested look.
The general's face was flushed, his forehead was slightly sweaty, and he held a small dagger with a golden hilt in his hand, and was randomly cutting a thick piece of paper into pieces.
He looked at Char, and the movements in his hands did not stop, and after examining it like this for a long time, it even made Char feel a little numb in his scalp before General Adric withdrew his bright and terrifying eyes.
"You can read the military symbols on these maps," Adric captured, as Char looked at the map when he first came in.
Char hesitated: "Recognize some."
Kevin, who was next to him, was curious and looked sideways at Char.
Char took a breath: "Some of the books I've read have these things on them. ” "Good."
Adric nodded, picked up a charcoal pen in front of him and threw it to Char: "Mark the map where you met the Odin people and show me the place where you clashed." ” Char took the charcoal pen, did not hesitate, walked to the map and found the location accurately, and then drew a small cross symbol on it, thought for a while, and marked a small circle next to the symbol The last move made Adric's eyes immediately show a trace of satisfaction.
Char's last symbol, in the Byzantine military symbol, represents the front line of the enemy's search force.
"Looks like you really understand these things."
Adric smiled, he retracted his eyes, nailed the dagger in his hand to the table, and his face became serious: "I know the results of your operation this time.
Well done" His eyes were fixed on Char: "You single-handedly killed six of Odin's Ice Hunters" "It's five."
Char thought for a moment, and his tone was very calm: "I killed five, and one was injured by me, which was killed by Kevin." ” The general nodded, he stood up and walked around the table and walked in front of Char, this general was very burly, and when he stood in front of Char, Char felt that what he was looking for was not a person, but a lion king Adric's eyes were blazing, and he looked at Char: "Raise your head and stand up" Then the general pressed his big rough hand on Char's shoulder and pinned a badge to Char's chest: "This is your military rank." ” His tone was serious: "Originally, you were supposed to be a private, but in view of your excellent performance in this mission, killing five Odin, according to the Imperial Military Law, I promoted you to sergeant." ” This badge was just a polished piece of slightly raised black iron, Char didn't care much about this, but when he saw this black iron piece, he suddenly remembered the scout captain's dead son, as if he was wearing this kind of badge.
"I hope you understand that here, this badge represents glory, blood, sacrifice" Adric's voice was majestic: "In addition, if you kill five enemies, according to Imperial Military Law, you can receive a Black Iron Medal of Courage, which will be declared by the Judge Advocate General's Office, and it will be sent to you soon." ” Speaking of this, he suddenly turned his head to look at Kevin: "Kevin, how long did you enlist in the army to get your first medal of courage?"
Kevin seemed to be a little embarrassed, scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "I can't remember, but it should be a year later."
"Ha, it seems that this new kid is better than you" After Adric finished speaking, he walked back to the table: "Kevin, take this kid to get the newly arrived war horse, and, from today onwards, the pro-guard team will be equipped with cavalry equipment" Kevin's eyes immediately lit up: "General, are we going to attack?"
Adric glanced at Kevin, his eyes seemed to be smiling, Kevin immediately understood, beat his chest excitedly, pulled Char who was still in a daze and ran away.
After leaving the tent, Char remembered to ask Kevin what the Medal of Courage was.
According to Kevin's explanation, an ordinary soldier in the Imperial army who can kill more than five enemies on the battlefield will receive a medal of courage.
This medal will also be the capital of merit in future promotions.
The Order of Black Iron Courage is awarded only to ordinary soldiers who do not have a military rank.
And once promoted to an officer, you can no longer receive this kind of medal.
In addition to this, the Order of Courage of the Black Iron has a special benefit: after the veterans who have received this medal are discharged from the army, they are exempt from paying all taxes of the empire for the rest of their lives.
Char listened to this, and was quite disapproving, he originally lived in Wildfire Town, he was not from the Byzantine Empire, and he had never paid taxes to the Byzantine Empire.
Kevin pulled Char back to the tent, the bald man looked excited, and his reason for excitement was simple: "The guards are rarely equipped with cavalry equipment, and since the general has given this order, it is clear that we have a big battle to fight."

After a pause, he smiled and said, "Okay, now I'll take you to get your warhorse, and I finally don't have to let you torture my reserve horse." ” After a battle, Kevin's attitude towards Char is much more affectionate, and it is clear that he has begun to accept Char as his comrade-in-arms.
"If you become a sergeant, you can be considered a regular soldier, and in the army, a private can only serve as an auxiliary, and only when you become a regular soldier can you serve as a real soldier.
We are a cavalry unit here, and the requirements for becoming a regular soldier are much stricter than those of an infantry regiment.
You can now receive two horses, both of which are your mounts, along with your cavalry equipment, armor, shield, and spear."
Speaking of this, Kevin suddenly stopped and patted his head: "Ah, I almost forgot something important." ” "What" Char was a little puzzled.
"Your servant" Kevin smiled: "You are now a formal cavalryman, a formal cavalry will be equipped with a servant, and as a general's personal guard, we have a special treatment, we can be equipped with a servant one-on-one."
If it is in the banner regiment below, it is a few cavalry sharing a servant. ” "What is that for" Char obviously has very limited knowledge of the details of this kind of army.
Kevin frowned: "You guy can even read military maps, but you don't know this" He patiently explained: "Look at me, my current military position is a cavalry commander, I have three war horses, two sets of standing equipment, weapons, shields, and uniforms, since this is the case, someone must be responsible for taking care of my war horses, feeding the horses, washing the horses, and wiping the armor and weapons, and these chores must be done by someone Of course, it is impossible for me to do these things myself, otherwise, just taking care of the three war horses, I don't have to do anything else every day." ” After a pause, he smiled and said, "Hu Servant, that is, your entourage, you are responsible for fighting the war, and everything else is left to Hu Servant."
Even if you are injured, the servant will be responsible for taking care of you. ” As he spoke, he patted Char, and then walked forward, saying loudly as he walked: "Let's go, I'll take you to the Minfu camp first, and choose a suitable candidate to explain first, according to the tradition of our Byzantine army, the cost of cavalry is to be paid by yourself, anyway, your military salary is not low, and you can afford to hire a servant." ” Speaking of this, Char suddenly remembered an important thing, and he strode after Kevin: "Hey, how much is my current military salary, uh, where can I get it":
