Yang Yu did not immediately follow the other soldiers to reinforce the city wall. Instead, he stood there and observed for a while. After confirming that the Luhua Army did not intend to treat him differently, he "wisely" took Bai Jin and the others to start the action and headed for the quarry behind him.
Luhuajun didn't say anything, but continued to stand aside and supervise the reinforcement of the city wall.
The new recruits were in a panic and didn't know how to ask the nearby veterans for advice on how to reinforce the city wall.
Some brave new recruits started working right away, but before they could build much, they were stopped by the veteran soldiers standing by. They had no choice but to tear it down and reinforce the wall again as the veteran soldiers said.
As many new recruits joined in the construction of the city wall, the wall soon became lively and every new recruit was working hard.
The stones on the wall were soon used up, and the recruits realized that they had to assign some people to transport the stones. By then, Yang Yu had already transported a lot of stones and piled them under the wall.
After a busy day, we barely finished reinforcing the city wall today.
Afterwards, the veterans were led by their respective superiors to have meals, while the new recruits gathered at the gate of the city, listening to the Luhua Army assigning them tasks. Basically, there was one centurion leading thirty new recruits.
Among the assigned teams, there was one group that was very special, that was the group with Yang Yu as the centurion.
Mingdarak hopes that General Luhuajun can follow the wishes of the Elf Queen, eliminate other difficulties, and let Yang Yu and Iyas act together as much as possible.
Lu Huajun did as he was told, but...
Yang Yu looked around at the new recruits he was assigned to. They were almost the worst in the team of recruits.
"My grouping is very even, no doubt about it." Lu Huajun blew out a puff of smoke and looked at Yang Yu's group, who were left alone at the end. "Come with me. I'll have a meal first, then I'll take you to get familiar with the military camp, and finally, I'll take you to meet your superiors and subordinates."
The corners of Yang Yu's mouth slightly raised, and there was no dissatisfaction on his face. "I see, asking us to build the wall is to observe our strength and character from the details. You are worthy of being the general of the Luhua Army. There is nothing wrong with this allocation."
"I don't know where you come from or who you are, but let's make it clear. This is a battlefield, and no one is allowed to mess around.
This war has been going on for seven or eight years. There are not many cases now, but in the past, I have seen too many bastards who had no real strength but relied on connections to get in and used the war as a tool to get promoted and make money.
They left one mess after another, and I hope you won’t make the same mistake they did.”
Although these words sounded like a reminder, Yang Yu could feel the resentment contained in them. This war had been going on for a very long time, and the emergence of a few people who valued power over their lives and gave unreasonable commands was not surprising.
"Thank you for your reminder, General. I will do my best to ensure the survival of my men."
The Luhua Army did not respond, but continued to take Yang Yu and his men to eat the disgusting military rations, then took them to meet a senior officer who was higher than them, taught them how to navigate the military camp, and finally took Yang Yu and his men to a tent.
There were already more than sixty veterans on standby there. The most conspicuous one among them was a short and strong middle-aged man with three scars on his face. Through the panel, Yang Yu could see the information of each person.
The man's name was Ayou, and his attributes were similar to Yang Yu. He was a soldier of Wansheng Country, and did not have the title of sergeant or squad leader.
As soon as he saw him, Yang Yu smelled a trick in the air.
In some frivolous games, what a person in a high position says is often taken as the truth by others.
For example, in a game that Yang Yu had played before, he was named a general by the king of that world without having done anything major. Wherever he went, people called him general.
but
You said you would appoint me as a general, so why don't you give me the military power? But general is just a title. Fighting monsters and leveling up still depends on me and my friends. It's really full of complaints.
However, in this game, different military ranks will have different actual powers. It is not difficult to imagine that if you become a king, you can command an entire country.
In RPG, if you want to climb up step by step, there will naturally be some people who are unwilling to accept the defeat and will come over to give you experience without saying a word.
These veterans must be dissatisfied with being commanded by an officer of unknown origin and without any background. They don't want to put their lives in the hands of someone they don't know.
That soldier is most likely the one who challenged me on behalf of the veterans. As long as he defeats me, he will be able to secure his position as centurion.
Just as Yang Yu was thinking about how to establish his prestige among the nearly 100 people, Lu Huajun introduced Yang Yu to the people present again.
"I have gathered you here for no other reason than this person is your new centurion, his name is Potato Thorn.
The ones behind him are the new soldiers he leads. I hope you can treat them kindly and teach them the rules of the battlefield. That’s all.”
After saying that, Lu Huajun looked at Yang Yu again.
“Don’t forget what I taught you before, obeying orders is your first priority.
Someone should have taught you what you need to know before you set out.
We don't have much time, so we need to get these new recruits through the training process as quickly as possible.
That’s all I have to say today. Now is the time for independent training. You can lead the team in independent training. After the training, please go to bed on time at the designated time.
I still have something to do, so I'll give you this military regulation. Please read it carefully."
Taking the military regulations booklet of Wansheng Kingdom from Lu Huajun, Yang Yu smiled and said goodbye to Lu Huajun.
What Lu Huajun said was quite clear, and Yang Yu was already a little impatient to receive these experience points.
After clearing his throat, Yang Yu spoke and briefly introduced himself again:
"As you just heard, my name is Potato Thorn. Although it takes some time, I hope you can accept each other so that I can remember you. This is the first order I give.
"Old soldier over there, what are you dissatisfied with? It's you, let's start with you! Introduce yourself!"
Yang Yu's attitude was extremely arrogant, however, the trouble he imagined did not come.
The veteran named Ah You straightened his chest and tightened his stomach, and responded in a sonorous voice: "My name is Ah You! What I like is fish, and what I hate is broken straw sandals. Report, over."
Yang Yu frowned slightly.
This seems a little different from what I thought. Didn’t we agree to find fault
The result, that’s it
"Do you have anything to say to me?" Yang Yu asked tentatively.
Ah You once again responded in a sonorous and powerful voice: "No, sir, we will absolutely obey your orders. Please be responsible for your words and actions and do not violate any military regulations!"
