I have a shelter

Chapter 168 Sergeant Wayne

The light snow slowly drifted into the window and landed on Wayne's face, feeling a little cool. Wayne looked at the sky that was not yet bright, picked up a towel to wipe his face, poured out the hot water in the basin, closed the window, and picked up the big kettle on the stove.

Amid his busy voice, his comrades in the barracks also got up one by one.

Seeing that most of his companions had put on their clothes, Wayne was very satisfied. After kicking awake the two lazy guys who were still in bed, he put on his armor with the help of a squad leader and a sergeant.

"Sir, according to the latest military regulations, I have a military rank. You should call me second lieutenant." The captain said.

"I can't change my mouth for a while." Wayne blushed and asked, "What was my name?"

"Lieutenant, sir." The second lieutenant replied.

"Isn't I a sergeant major? What is the difference between a sergeant major and a lieutenant?" Wayne couldn't help scratching his head.

"Sir, the sergeant major is the chief sergeant, and he has no subordinates. The lieutenant is a military rank, and he has more than 30 subordinates." The second lieutenant said.

"Okay." Sergeant Major Wayne looked at the soldiers in the barracks and understood what the chief who managed the three squads should be called.

Although for a while, he was still a little bit unable to change his words. But Boss Martin said that in the past, because the nobles led the troops, the army organization was very chaotic. During the war, if the master died, those who were not the knights' squires would not know who to listen to.

After all, the title of "Sergeant Major" is still too general.

Now the knights have their own tasks. Soldiers need to be led by their superiors to perform their tasks. Naturally, there should also be superiors and military ranks.

So, this is a good thing. In the words of Boss Martin-"You kid has been promoted again."

Thinking of this, Wayne couldn't help but be full of energy. At the beginning, he was just a poor man, although he had served as a soldier under Lord Babur before. But how can a soldier have the opportunity to be promoted? Among a thousand people, not everyone can survive to the end and be canonized as a knight.

But now, everyone has a chance, and different ranks have different salaries - who paid before? Soldiers just wanted to pay less food!

But at this moment, I can see the wide road ahead of me. In terms of faith, I have a goal. Even if I don’t have the title of knight, I have the opportunity to stand shoulder to shoulder with them!

After death, I will be buried in the Hall of Heroes under the church and become one of the heroes respected and worshipped by future generations!

Of course, maybe one day I can also wear a red robe, or rest in the hall with that red robe - this is the highest honor of every soldier!

He still remembers the scene of taking the oath at dawn some time ago. There are 59 red-robed knights now, and Wayne always feels that the 60th one may be himself!

Whenever he thinks of this, Wayne feels full of energy!

The soldiers were all equipped. Wayne took the Dawn Sword handed over by the second lieutenant and hung it on his waist.

After leaving the castle barracks, there was the military deputy hall, where many soldiers were already lined up. After greeting several sergeants, Wayne ordered his subordinates to go to the kitchen to get dry food and all the patrol equipment (as usual, it was their turn to patrol the South Mountain today. So breakfast and dinner could only be solved outside.), and then he chatted with several idle sergeants.

Looking at these partners and their wolf packs and newcomers, Wayne remembered the new tasks issued recently - it seemed that everyone had some new tasks except himself. Leading the more than 200 new soldiers was one of them.

Leading newcomers is a hard and worrying thing. Although those cubs are very brave after the initial training. But on the battlefield, they always do some stupid things. However, it is easy to lead veterans. They are also very reliable. But there are always some things in the south that are handed over to me.

However, there is a contempt chain in the army. Everyone wants to squeeze in for a team like his.

Patrolling the mountains takes many days, and there is a lot of preparation work, so there is no hurry to leave. So when some teams have hurried out, the soldiers of his team have not returned yet.

Gradually, half of the people in the deputy hall have been gone, and most of them are new faces. So Wayne lost interest in chatting, and stood at the door alone with his shoulders hugged, watching the snow.

Although the weather was very cold, there were already several knights who got up early and practiced with their bare chests.

Since the lord came back, many knights have been sent to the south by him. There are not many knights in the territory, and they are all on a semi-vacation. But they all seem to be unable to sit still.

After getting those new weapons, it was even more so.

Those fine gold weapons with runes outlined are better than the swords he issued some time ago. Wayne couldn't help but feel a surge of heat in his heart.

Everyone's equipment has increased a little. The equipment on the soldiers is also heavier. But since he took a bath with those potions, Wayne felt that his strength was getting stronger and stronger.

Although weapons other than spears, such as the Dawn Sword, represent status. But he still prefers the big oak hammer.

He has tried the big hammer of Boss Wolpe. Although it weighs more than 40 kilograms, it is not difficult to lift it. It is said that Wolpe originally wanted a heavier one. But it seems that because it is not convenient to carry, he finally gave up.

"It just so happens that today Wayne is leading people to the south, just leave it to him - look, the one standing there stupidly." Martin put away his two long swords and pointed in this direction.

Seeing that Master Martin pointed at him, Wayne hurried over to report.

Wayne still admired Master Martin. After the new proposal came out, the Lord had originally talked to him and wanted him to be appointed as the 'Consul', but he resigned: "Boss, you keep leaving me in the territory, my bones are almost rusty - let Mishan do it, I want to follow you behind!"

This incident made Wayne depressed for a long time. After all, if the boss was promoted, he would have more face in front of everyone.

But Martin called him a fool.

After the salute, he saw that on the second-floor window of a room in the castle, a famous scholar was yawning and looking at the parade ground.

"The old man has something to tell you. This is a good thing. It's like half a vacation! Go quickly - although the old guy Aldous is annoying, he is Anthony's second apprentice. You should be respectful to him." Martin scratched his sweaty chest, patted his shoulder, and let him go.

Of course, you have to be respectful! Those who live on the second floor are all dark wizards. There are not many people in the whole territory who dare to call them old men.

After standing downstairs and talking, Wayne received a new task - it was about the injured who was sent overnight last night.

The injured was a rich man from Gu Nan, who was considered the leader of a traveling merchant team and often organized people to go to the coal mine to "make money". Wayne had seen him several times when patrolling the trade route.

I heard that his injuries were very scary, but he was really lucky to survive the attack of the werewolf.

After hearing what the scholar said, Wayne's eyes narrowed slightly: "Mr. Aldous, please rest assured. I will definitely come back to see you with the werewolves' heads!"

"The laboratory is not short of dead ones." Mr. Aldous stroked his beard and looked up and down at the lean and capable lieutenant in front of him. He said in a roundabout way: "Of course, don't be too stubborn, just try to catch them alive."

After that, he took out a whistle and threw it to Wayne from the second floor: "Those things may not be easy to find in the mountains. I specially asked Lord Alexander to borrow two helpers for you-don't forget to let them poop outside before coming back."

Taking the whistle thrown down, Wayne recognized this thing. Many people have walked the two dogs.

After blowing it gently with some hesitation, two huge figures suddenly jumped out of the window on the third floor.

Looking at these two huge things with black bodies and blue stripes, the two pairs of scarlet vertical eyes staring at them made Wayne's heart tremble.

——What are they called? !

"Adam! Eve!"

Thank goodness! I finally remembered.

Fortunately, although I haven't seen them for a while, they still smelled my scent. Seeing them licking the palm of his hand, Wayne's nervous mood slowly relaxed.

These two guys are bigger than the last time I saw them.

I remember that these two guys were only about three months old when they first entered the territory, and I used prey to feed them for Miss Rona. Now they are almost eight months old, but now they are a circle bigger than those adult northern male wolves, and they look only slightly shorter than "Little William"!

The wolves in the team like to follow them, but only Ersha dares to get close to them. As these two guys grow bigger and bigger, the soldiers who have seen them hunt gradually dare not bring them along. The sight of dragging a whole deer in the mountains and forests and tearing it apart while running is too scary.

They are much stronger than horses!

Whenever Wayne saw these two giant wolves, he would think of werewolves.

According to the old knights around the lords, they seemed to be related. But what were those words called?

'Hybridization? ', 'mutation' and 'reversion'?

A bag was suddenly thrown into Wayne's arms. Wayne came to his senses and opened it. He found a bunch of coarse hair inside, which should be from a werewolf; a few small bottles of potions wrapped in cotton, each the size of a finger, which he had seen before, and could cure wolf poison; a limited purchase coupon, which was nothing special. Although it was rare, soldiers rarely used these things.

But the seven golden lions were so dazzling that Wayne's eyes widened.

Wayne knew that these golden lions should be extra money for his brothers - they were really generous! It was worth it even if they had to stay in the snow outside for a few days! On average, each person could get seven silver foxes on this trip!

Of course, if he knew that Anthony had taken out ten coins before, I don't know what he would say.

"Buy something when you go out. The snow forest at night is not easy - it seems that there is a market today." Mr. Aldous's voice came from above: "In addition, the meat of the past two days has not been delivered by the hunters in Gu Nan. I don't know if you are good at hunting. If I were you, I would not let them starve - see what is on sale in the market."

"What are they eating now?" Wayne raised his head and looked at the window on the second floor.

"Don't feed them." Mr. Aldous threw down this sentence and closed the window with a clang.
