Until the end of the siege, the expeditionary force of Elcheng finally failed to enter the front line to fight a real battle, and this expeditionary force of several thousand men ended up just guarding a zero-hour material warehouse in a valley in the rear of the siege and annihilation.In fact, the real resistance is not from the military of the North Wind Legion, but from the top of the Knights of the Garrison Department, they absolutely dare not recklessly send these bastard soldiers to the battlefield, outsiders look at these bright armor, war horses fat and strong reserve soldiers just look at the surface, see that they do not have too many problems except for loose military discipline, but those high-level people in the El City Garrison Department know in their hearts that these reserve soldiers are actually made of tofu scum mixed with fart, and they are purely waste firewood that the mud can't support the wall.So after many tactful requests and walks, I asked for such a good errand.In this way, the safety can be guaranteed, and after returning to the city of El in the future, there will be an excuse to tell the citizens of the city of Eyre: The expeditionary force has really joined the battle to encircle and suppress the barbarians, but the division of labor is different during the war!
There is also the importance of guarding the material warehouse, after all, there is such a proverb in the army that explains the importance of materials: before the soldiers and horses move, the grain and grass go first.But obviously, this statement is not so appropriate to use in the Grimm Empire, with the rise of the magic age, there have been many great magicians in human beings, and human beings have been able to make large space-based magic items by relying on magic, which is a large storage box similar to a magic belt, as long as there is a magician with him when marching, such a magic box can store the materials of an entire army.Of course, there are also such magical items in the Legion of the North Wind.And the existence of this material warehouse is only set up as a precaution, and basically the materials of the North Wind Legion do not come here to receive them.This temporary storage will only last until the end of the campaign, when it will end its role.It was under such circumstances that the expeditionary force of the city of El was stationed in this material warehouse.As everyone knows, the guard regiment did this, and it also made the parents of those student soldiers in El City completely eat a reassuring tile in their hearts, after all, they are not very willing to let their underage children enter the battlefield.Although this battlefield is an inevitable experience for every boy in the Green Empire, it is also after participating in the coming-of-age ceremony, and they will also have more life-saving skills when they become adults.And the idea may not be as naïve as it is now.Therefore, in this way, everyone seems to be able to reluctantly accept the matter of stationing in the material warehouse, except for those student soldiers who are not afraid of heaven and earth.Although this was not a glorious thing, the high-ranking members of the garrison corps received some praise from the council chamber of El City, although it was only a verbal compliment, but it was enough.Not being able to go to the battlefield to kill the barbarians made those elite students who came to the Academy of El City a little disappointed, they originally thought that they could carry their swords to kill the enemy on the battlefield, did they have a way to show off to their friends how majestic they were in the ears of the barbarians after the return trip, and now they could only line up and sit lazily on the threshing floor to carry out those damp beans.Spread on the ground to dry.The day before yesterday, a heavy rain lifted the roof of the No. 22 grass warehouse, and the beans in the entire warehouse were damp, if they were not dried in time, about three days later, the entire 300,000 soldiers of the North Wind Army would have the opportunity to eat a meal of vegetarian fried bean sprouts.Obviously, the higher-ups of the North Wind Army hated the bean sprouts.Therefore, the order from the top was to make sure to dry the beans in this warehouse and store them again before they sprouted.For those who are in the reserve of the Knights of the El City Garrison, this is inevitably a pie-in-the-sky thing, I really didn't expect God to be able to do it when the battle is about to end.gave such a chance to fish for oil and water.In fact, it is very simple to say, that is, these beans are good fodder for horses, and as members of the Knights' reserves, each of them owns horses.Moreover, every day the garrison regiment will distribute the reserves as needed, and these knights will be fed a certain amount of fodder for the horses.But now the beans from these warehouses were to be transported to the threshing floor to dry, and the people who did the work happened to be the Elciton Expeditionary Force stationed here, so that the knights of these garrisons began to think about the beans.The old quartermasters knew that every time the barn was flooded and the grain was dried.There will be some loss.The reason is that because of the rain and dampness, some grains are moldy and spoiled, and in the end only some good ones can be left, so that the beans will be reduced by one percent, and after drying, they will be lost and reduced by one percent.After the final drying, it is good that the beans taken out can be transported back eighty percent.In fact, where would the reduced beans disappear so easily, they were just put into the pockets of the Knights.In those days, the entire material warehouse was as lively as the New Year.But these things, for those student soldiers who came with the Knights of the Garrison Department, did not know anything about them.They still have to be under military control every day, they have to go out in the morning, and then they have breakfast, except for the personnel who change guards in normal shifts, the rest of the people have to go to the threshing floor to dry beans, every day is boring for us, and Arendt and Eveli always like to sit together and sigh, lamenting that heroes are useless, and they are placed in such a small valley to guard supplies.The two of them were sitting on a sack full of beans, resting back to back.The two of them were young and vigorous, but apparently they had been in a privileged family since childhood, and had not done such rough farm work, and after a while they were already as tired as dead dogs, and only thought of sitting on the sack and gasping for breath, and although they were a little thirsty, they would not take two more steps to the well to drink.Although it is spring, the midday sun will also roast people's faces warmly.I stood at the edge of the barn, carrying a pot of chilled mung bean soup in one hand, waving vigorously to the sweaty Eveli and the bitter-looking Alendt, who had been preparing a pot of cool mung bean soup to bring to the barn at noon for the past few days.These mung beans were accidentally found in a corner of the warehouse when I was rescuing the rain-soaked warehouse beans a few days ago, and I did not expect to encounter this grain that I was so familiar with again, and then I exchanged two browned crispy ducks for a small noodle bag with the quartermaster in charge of the warehouse.Frosting is my own, and when I cook food, I like to put more sugar.Most of the frosted sugar in El City is transported from the southern provinces of the Grimm Empire, so after adding the cost of freight, the price of these frosted sugars is very expensive, and ordinary families are almost willing to eat sugar during festivals.I think.A childhood is incomplete without sugar, so sometimes if you want to eat sugar, you will sneak out of the city of El and hunt for a sought-after object or two outside the city.For example, the wealthy people of El City like to eat eagle boobies, which are very fast birds that live near the lake, and they usually build their nests on high cliffs, and usually fly on the lake all day, and rarely have time to rest.It's hard to catch.But the meat of this bird is extremely delicious, and the price in El City is very high, and I basically hunt this bird for money to buy frosting candy to eat.But I don't do this much lately, because Fanny thinks I'm an introvert and should go out with other kids from time to time, and she stubbornly thinks that the reason I don't go out is because I don't have much money in my pocket and I don't have confidence in front of other children, so my pocket money has been too much to spend in the last two years, which is something that Tracy is jealous of.I saw Tracy also sitting in her and her classmates' squad, an improvised wooden cane aside.Tracy suffered some minor injuries in the last accident.A cut was made in her left leg, but fortunately she didn't cut the arteries or tendons, otherwise she might not be able to walk in the future.She was wearing a pair of oversized trousers, and the bandages on her thighs were tied inside the thighs, so that they could not be seen from the outside.Maybe it was a very funny joke told by one of the classmates next to her, and the other companions around her burst into laughter, but she just smiled faintly and sat there quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.More difficult for her to heal than Tracy's leg injury was her heartache.I think that only after taking time to erase those unforgettable memories from her mind little by little, she may come out of her depression.However, it is clear that Ryan thinks that it does not have much to do with it, but rather a good thing, which shows that Tracy has experienced the first love she is destined to experience in her life.The fairytale perfect castle she had built for herself in her heart was gone, and now it had become a leaky and leaky house, and she needed to repair it herself, and this process of repairing it was the process of growing up and becoming mature.I've seen Tracy eat almost very little lately, so at yesterday's time.I cooked a pot of mung bean soup for her to drink, maybe because she had never drunk mung bean soup, maybe it was because there was a lot of frosting sugar added to the soup, it was very sweet, and it was obvious that she liked it very much.In order for her to get better as soon as possible, so as not to worry Fanny when she returns to El City.That's why I decided to send it again today.And this time I cooked it for three, and Arendt and Evely might like it!
Although we didn't end up eating duck stewed hazelnut mushrooms that night, we slowly began to get acquainted and became friends.When I'm bored, I go to them and we sit together and talk.The noon sun shines directly on the threshing floor, and the ground is a little hot to the touch, so the bags of beans are carried to the threshing floor, and then the damp beans are spread out and dried, Tracy sits on the sack full of beans, holding a pen in one hand, and a roll of parchment paper in the other, responsible for counting the number of beans on the grain floor, this work is very easy, originally the wounded do not need to work, Tracy really felt that lying in the tent in the camp was too boring, so he asked the teacher of the academy to come.The academy teacher naturally agreed, and chose the easiest job for Tracy, which was mainly for the sake of Ryant's face, and secondly, because Tracy had become a heroic figure in Stans College at this time, and the school teacher would naturally take care of it.In contrast, Leon's life is very difficult, he chose to abandon his teammates and flee alone at the most critical moment, which alone will make it difficult for him to find a partner to train with in the future.Therefore, everyone in the academy must have three or two good friends, otherwise the life of the academy will be difficult.Tracy is really famous this time, and the entire expeditionary force is spreading her deeds, and her desperate fight against man-eating poisonous spiders has also made many girls in the academy respect idols.Even two people, Arendt and Evely, have received a lot of attention.During breaks, there are always male students from other squads who come over and talk to other members of the squad.The sun shone on Tracy's face, causing two blush on her cheeks, a fine layer of sweat on her forehead, she put her hand in front of her forehead to build a pergola, looked up at the hot sun, looked at the crowd gathered by the well in the distance, and sighed.casually fanned the wind in front of his face with his hand, only to feel that the wind was hot, so he had to unbutton the collar of his shirt again, revealing a delicate snow-white chest inside.The boys who were chatting together around them swallowed and foamed at the mouth, and their eyes were invariably aimed at the depths of the neckline.Tracy glanced at it a little speechlessly, some of the thin-skinned boys bowed their heads weakly, and some of the cheeky boys looked at them with a cheeky smile.Tracy had some anger in his eyebrows, but in the end he could only sigh softly.Originally, Tracy was not the most popular girl in Stas College, and there was a heroic spirit in her beautiful face, but now her deeds of using a Western sword to cut off the three legs of a man-eating poisonous spider have been widely spread, and she has attracted many admirers for a while.I walked slowly along the gap between the dried beans on the threshing floor, and walked slowly towards Tracy's group, many people at Stas College knew me, and I had been here to bring food to Tracy these days, and sometimes they would give me some snacks, and I walked on the threshing floor, but I had to keep saying a short hello to those people, a simple greeting, a simple look or a simple gesture, and at the very least, a simple nod, which would make them think I was very polite.Tracy saw me from afar, and there was a hint of emotion in her eyes, the corners of her mouth rose up, and a shallow dimple appeared on her face, and she bit her lip lightly with her snow-white teeth, as if she must have been thirsty for a long time.I sighed and thought: Is this group of boys around Tracy really like stupid hats, can't they see that Tracy really wants to drink water?
She must have been sitting there still because of her immobility, why didn't anyone send her a bowl of cool well water at this time?"
Hey, Jia, you sent sweet bean soup to your sister again!""
Well, Ira, your team is on duty today!""
Haha, this job is much more comfortable than squatting in the grass to feed mosquitoes" I walked unhurriedly to Tracy's side, took off a porcelain bowl from the clay pot and put it in her hand, she was now as good as a cute puppy, and sat there obediently waiting for me to pour the sweet bean soup from the clay pot into the bowl, and then asked her if the injury was any better.She didn't talk to me, just quickly drank the sweet bean soup in the bowl, and then returned the bowl to me with a smile, but refused to say a word.Although she likes sweet bean soup very much, she will never say that she wants to drink a second bowl.I know she's changed her mind about me, from hostility to gratitude.But I still feel like there's a wall between us, and I'm trying to tear it down, but obviously it's a bit hard.Her stubborn belief that I robbed Fanny and Ryan of their love for her is deeply ingrained in her heart since she was a child and is hard to change.To be continued.
