Chapter 2 Sending Letters

Four years of war life gave Locke the habit of eating quickly. He wiped his hands after eating quickly and said to Hans next to him, "Hans, let's go."

Locke came to the military camp again. It was noon now. Most people were either sleeping or soaking in a tavern. Locke walked straight to the post station behind the military camp, took the wallet from Hans, and walked into the post station.

"Warner! Warner!" Locke shouted.

"You're going to die! You're going to die! Damn Locke, I heard it. You don't have to sleep well at noon. You damn guy!" Warner, who was in charge of the post station's communication obligation, walked out of a room inside the post station. He complained, "Are you sending money to your family again? Come on, give it to me!"

"For this, this is mine, this is the guys in my team, don't mess it up!" Rock reminded.

"I know, I know, it's not the first time I've sent you money. No other team is as good as your mother-in-law!" Warner was still dissatisfied with Locke's nap and complaining.

"You kid, if you mess up, I'll deal with you." Locke gritted his teeth at this lucky guy. He said that he was lucky because the person in charge of the post not only enjoyed the military pay of the Third Class, but the most important thing was the safety of the post. After all, everything can go wrong, but the logistics cannot go wrong. Moreover, there is no need to look at people's faces in this post. Ordinary squad leader dares not mess with Warner. However, there is no way to promote here. When Locke was a third Class Warner was in charge of the post. Now Locke has been promoted to Private Class for more than a year, and he is still here. However, I heard that he has a relative relationship with the Baron's housekeeper, and I think there will be a way out in the future.

"Yeah, yeah, are there any other requests? What about bringing words?" Warner has been dealing with Rock for a day or two. He knew that every time this guy received military pay and sent the money back, he always had to bring a few words to his family.

"Well. Let me tell my parents to take care of their health, and my sister, so that she doesn't have to save money all the time. I don't need to buy whatever she wants. I'm not short of that little money now." Locke had already thought about what to say. He believed that his sister knew what she wanted her to buy. A scarf with hair tied is Locke's obsession.

"Well, I know. The caravan sent back to our Kaidozi will set off tomorrow. First, to the occupied area of ​​Peters in the eastern province of Tyre, then to the capital Flor, and finally to our southern province of Del, and can be sent back in 20 days at the latest." Warner said. After a while of greeting with Warner, Locke said goodbye. He did not disturb Warner's lunch break. Although Warner is now quite deserted, it is the time to wait for the afternoon to be lively. Because today's salary is paid.

After walking out of the station, Locke took Hans back to their team's tent. "Hans, what do you think our village is like now?" On the way back, Locke and Hans chatted. They came from the same village, and their families were even neighbors.

"It's better to be the same. The maple tree at the entrance of the village should be bigger. My brother has another son this year. I have three nephews now. The land at home will not be worried about in the future. The harvest this year is said to be very good. The village killed a pig for our military households, and each family has a share. And..." Hans was usually a bored man, but he couldn't hold it as soon as he opened the clip and kept talking until the two of them returned to the camp.

"This war has been fighting for four years and is almost over. I really want to go back soon," Locke sighed.

After Locke and Hans returned to their tent, except for the servant Phil on duty, the rest of the squad were on lunch breaks. Those who had been on the battlefield understood that the abundant energy could make you live longer on the battlefield.

Locke walked to his bed, took off his coat, and went to bed, but he was not asleep. He was thinking about how he should operate and be promoted to Private First Class as soon as possible. The army of the Kingdom of Foster has its own promotion system: the cannon fodder on the battlefield, which has just been trained after two months of training; the army of the Third Class, the main combat power in the Kingdom of Kingdom of Furstein requires more than two years of military service (more than one year in wartime) and he must have the strength to deal with the three servants; the army of the Second Class, 10

The captain of a squadron requires more than three years of military experience (more than two years in wartime) to cope with three third-class privates; the first-class private is the ace combat power in the army, and serves as the captain of a hundred-man squadron, and requires more than four years of military experience (more than three years in wartime) to defeat at least three second-class privates. Yes, it is a defeat, because the first-class private has the right to practice fighting qi skills; as for the first-class privates to be promoted to knights, there is no clear explanation in the army, and I think it will not be public if I have not reached that level.

Locke knew his strength and dealt with three second-class privates of the same level as him. If he fought hard, he would be fine for a short time. He had enough military service, but he was not sure whether he could be promoted. There were many people with similar strength to him in their military camp. Because in that battle two months ago, one-third of their camp suffered casualties. The captain of the third squadron and the deputy captain of the fourth squadron were killed in battle. Only then did the two seats be vacant. There were too many monks and too few people staring at these two seats secretly.

Thinking of the battle two months ago, Locke was also shuddering. This was the battle that Locke experienced second only to the bloody battle in Gordon Heights. In order to win the Felmer Grand Canyon that leads to the hinterland of the enemy country, the three legions of the kingdom were filled up regardless of casualties. In order to break the deadlock, the three legions used wheel battles to attack the canyon highlands in turn. The enemy defending the canyon is said to have only one legion, so how can they defend it? This battle was extremely difficult. The enemy fought hard to defend this last front. Locke had experienced more than once that the enemy was seriously injured.

After the siege, Fang attacked wildly without hesitation. Is this to protect his home? Locke asked himself, would he do this if his kingdom was invaded? I remembered the successful defeat of the large army of the Kingdom of Charlotte last year, occupied Peters' leadership and burned, killed, looted, and the family of those with little assets was demoted to slaves. The beautiful woman was either occupied by the nobles or served as military prostitutes. She also remembered her simple parents and kind sisters. Locke also understood these opponents, because under the same circumstances, Locke would do more ruthlessly.

Faced with such a bloody opponent, Locke was full of respect, but he was not ruthless. This was a war, and his brothers were also suffering from casualties.

The three major legions attacked for nearly a month before they took down the Felmer Grand Canyon. Their battalion belonged to the Eagle Legion, the fifth brigade of the Second Infantry Regiment of the Eagle Legion. In that battle, the Second Infantry Regiment was the vanguard of the entire legion, and the third and fourth brigades of their brigade were the vanguard of their battalion. The first battle was the attack of their two brigades. The sound of killing never stopped. Even Locke, who was trimming behind at that time, could hear screams, scoldings, and the sound of swords colliding. From time to time, a fireball or lightning flashed across the sky. This is said to be the power of magic, and blood dyed the entire sky red.

When it was Locke's turn to participate in the attack, the third and fourth squadrons and the first squadrons that their battalion had been reduced by nearly half, which caused a lot of panic to the soldiers in the barracks. However, Locke, who had fought for four years, suppressed the panic in his heart. Locke, who had lived on a meat grinder-like battlefield for four years, understood a truth. You should not be timid on the battlefield. The more you are afraid, the faster you will die. In that battle, their team avoided several waves of magic bombing under the command of Locke. Locke did not fight hard against the enemy. Such an enemy with ambition was the worst to mess with. He chose to suggest that the squadron leader Yoshak participate in the war on the flank of the canyon. There are many dangerous stones there, which are easy to avoid bows and arrows and magic attacks. The enemy's garrisons do not have much force, and it is a credit to occupy the commanding heights on the flank of the canyon.

After all, it was a war. Locke and his team still killed two people, Private Gree, a sword and shield hand with strength, a servant Gal, and a humorous little boy, only 16 years old. Locke personally captured a private who was slightly injured, a private, and five or six privates, at the cost of Locke being stabbed with a knife and a lot of minor injuries. The final result was that their team killed a total of 1 private, 5 privates, and more than ten servants. They were able to achieve such a great record not only because their battle was more and less from the beginning to the end, but also because their team was strong in cohesion.

After killing the enemy, they can go to the camp to exchange military merits. The servants occupy 1 point of military merit in the army, 5 points of third-class privates and 10 points of second-class privates. Locke has saved almost 50 points of military merits. Military merits in the military barracks can be exchanged for promotions, and 100 military merits can be exchanged for first-class private ranks; and it is also used as currency. Soldiers can buy everything they want in the military barracks through military merits. This is more common than Yindler and has stronger purchasing power. In the end, it can be exchanged for money, 1 military merit for 1 Yindler. Military merits are the choice of most soldiers. The Kingdom of Foster has experienced two years of drought, and the price of food remains high. Most of the soldiers are to make their families survive. The money exchanged for military merits is the nobles and military headquarters dare not embezzle or be corrupt. If the money is sent back to the family, their relatives can survive.

Locke had always exchanged his military achievements for money before, but since he experienced the bloody battle of Gordon Heights last year, he changed his mind. If he couldn't survive, how could his family live a better life? The one who died the most on the battlefield was the cannon fodder at the bottom, and the servants died the fastest in high-intensity wars. Even the third-class private who was a little powerful at the time, he survived in the pile of dead people. After that bloody battle, his strength made considerable progress. With the care of the captured enemy's large number of badges and the care of Uncle Yoshak, who had also survived, he became the squadron leader and left the category of a big-headed soldier.
