Chapter 023 - The Devil Race is on the move

Vasily was eating and without looking up asked, "How so?"

Ye Xia hurriedly swallowed the rice in his mouth and looked up to ask, "Were those two columns sneak attacked by the enemy?"

"Yes!" Victor put down the dinner spoon in his hand and whispered, "Three arrows were shot at the east road's Wanfeng captain, luckily he reacted quickly and dodged sideways, he didn't get hit by the arrows, but one of his guards got hit by the arrows and died. The Wanfujing of the middle road took an arrow in his arm and didn't die; his warhorse took an arrow in his neck and stomach and died."

Yeesha looked at Victor dumbfounded and asked, "Really?"

Victor hurriedly stopped Ye Xia, "Shhh! Keep your voice down!" Victor looked around, no one was paying attention to them, "It was the cook who heard it outside the tent when he was bringing food to Captain Wan. I was the last one to serve food just now, and I heard it from the cook."

Vasily happened to finish his meal, sighed, and said softly, "I originally thought that it was us, the junior soldiers, who die faster in a war. This hasn't even been a war yet, and even the ten thousand captains are starting to get injured, so it seems that fighting with the Demon Land soldiers won't go well for us."

Ye Xia, on the other hand, was eating while thinking, "Now we've just entered the Canino Frontier Province only, there's still a military town, Porna, separating us from the borderline, why would the Demon Clan's scouts turn through Porna to harass the big rear of our Sacred Kingdom's army? And all of them are dealing with the level of 10,000 captains when they strike?"

Ye Xia was meditating when the decapod came to them, the decapod stood up straight and shouted, "Vasily, Victor, Ye Xia!"

Immediately, Vasily, Victor, and Ye Xia put down their lunchboxes, stood up, stood at attention, and responded in unison, "Yes!"

Tenth Master Vitaly opens a small book and reads, "I reported your performance, approved by the Centurion, approved by the Thousand Master, reported to the Ten Thousand Master for knowledge, and hereby inform you of your rewards - Ye Xia, timely discovery of the enemy and informing his fellow soldiers, ten points added to the value of merit. Vasily, Victor found the enemy situation, disposed of properly, at the same time, leading the new recruits Ye Xia good results, merit value plus five points each. End of reading, everyone applaud!"

The soldiers on this side of the ten-man team who were eating, all followed and applauded and congratulated under Vitaly's leadership. Ye Xia's trio also smiled awkwardly and applauded joyfully.

During each two-year service period, if the merit value reaches two percent or more in advance, one can not wait for the full two years of service, but can receive the baptism of holy light in advance, and have the opportunity to become a knight of holy light.

The army will not be stingy with rewards for outstanding performance, but it also encourages unity and collaboration among soldiers, and they will work together to make merits and increase their merit value together; of course, if three people go out to act and make mistakes together, then there is a possibility that they will be punished collectively.

Ye Xia finally really understood why Vasily and Victor patiently taught him how to be a pointman along the way. However, in a rear march like this, the ten-man commander would not let Ye Xia and the others lead every day, he would change to another group every day, so he could not always leave the opportunity to take credit to the same three people. Similarly, the ten-man team and the hundred-man team would also rotate to be the frontline, which was requested by the 10,000-man commander, An Tipu.

But if you're in a war zone, it's not always rotated that way, and the troops will still let the guy with the specialty do what he does best for safety and victory.

Today, it was the turn of Ye Xia's trio to be the pointman, and they ran into "good luck".

All three of Ye Xia finished their meal and walked to wash the dishes. The 10th captain came over and patted Ye Xia's shoulder and said, "Ye Xia, you are good at observing, work harder in the future. You are still at the point where you see things that create doubts, in time, you will be able to judge that there is hostile situation as soon as you see something abnormal, that will be truly excellent. You should know that hesitation and delays will often cause large forces to suffer losses."

"The tenth captain taught me the right lesson!" Ye Xia was admiring these veterans more and more, "Tenth Master, wait a moment, I'm wondering about another problem, but just a little clue came to mind, but only a little, there's still a lot that hasn't come to mind, but I think you might want to remind our Centurion ..."

"Ughhh!" The tenth husband man was dry, "Ye Xia, we are in the army, we want to speak concisely and quickly, I just told you, no hesitations or delays! You speak confidently and simply!"

"Yes!" Ye Xia stood at attention, "The Tenth Husbandman is right to criticize! I suggest ..."

Wanfu Chief Anjip held the merit report book presented by Thousand Chief Gorman and said as he looked at it, "I never thought that ah, I was saved today by a freshly enlisted recruit, otherwise, maybe I would have been killed by a random arrow. Who would have thought that a devil assassin whose skin color is so different from ours would still go deep into our great rear to assassinate the highest commander of the troops. This young man called Ye Xia is not bad, although he is still in the stage of seeing anomalies and committing suspicions, when he is well exercised in the future, he will definitely be an excellent soldier."

Gorman, in the tent, and Theodore, the captain of the guard, nodded their heads in agreement.

A voice rang out from outside the tent, "Report, Centurion Flass is here to see Thousand-Master Gorman."

Antip waved Gorman out.

After a while, Gorman came in with Centurion Flass, stood at attention, and said, "Report, Centurion Flass has a proposal to make to the Lord Wannabe."

Antip had been staring at the map hanging up, when he turned to the centurion and said, "Vlas, any suggestions, go ahead!"

Centurion Flass wanted to speak, but did not dare to, and finally, he stood at attention and said, "Report, this suggestion was made by Ten Master Vitaly. He's right outside, and it would be clearer if he said it."

Antip got impatient and droned, "What words are you afraid to say? Who else is out there, come in!"

Two soldiers walked in and stood at attention.

Flass whispered to one of them, "Vitaly, you speak!"

Tenfold Vitali froze and looked bitterly at Flass, "Centurion, shall I speak?"

Flass nodded, then eyed his toes and didn't move. Gorman, the thousand-man commander next to him, did the same.

Vitaly thought about it, but still didn't dare to speak, he tugged on the soldier next to him and whispered, "Ye Xia, you speak!"

Ye Xia had all thought that there must be no part of his own speech, being pulled by the decapod to say so, he also froze, looking bitterly at Vitaly: ''What? I ... I say?"

An Jipu heavily placed his teacup on the table and drank, "Each of you officers, the bigger the officer, the more you're afraid of me, right? Am I that scary? Then who, that little soldier, what's your name? You say it?"

Ye Xia tremblingly, bending his back and looking at the middle-aged, blonde Wanfujing An Jiep, he said, "Lord Wanfujing, my name is Ye Xia. What I said may not please you when you hear it, but it's just a suggestion, if you don't take it, you mustn't punish me, you have to say it first."
