MTL - Lord Highlander-Chapter 6 5. Born Warrior

  Chapter 6 5. Born Warrior

  Two months allowed He Boqiang to fully recover, and these days in the military camp also allowed him to slowly settle down.

Many infantry regiments of the Green Empire fought in the wild and did not have a dedicated logistics supply unit. The same was true for the 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment. They all looked the same, and handed over the logistical supplies to the accompanying caravan.

The number of caravans that followed the Grand Duke Newman into Handanal County was very large. Those big merchants followed the Duke Newman's main force to build the knights and drank soup. Only some small caravans would come to do heavy armor. The business of the corps, of course, most of these caravans are business groups in Baron Sidney's territory. These business groups not only have ways to help soldiers bring their general salaries and letters back to their hometowns, but also occasionally bring news of their hometowns to soldiers. .

  Suldak can often get some black-patterned magic skins in his hands, so he knows many managers of business groups, and everyone can get together to chat with each other.

He Boqiang sat on the dirt **** at the entrance of the camp, watching Suerdak standing outside the camp and chatting with a businessman wearing silk tight pants and a long shirt with cut sleeves. Occasionally, the bearded businessman looked at He Boqiang from time to time Take a few glances.

  At first, the businessman thought that Suerdak was joking, but then he got serious.

  Suldak waved to He Boqiang. He Boqiang stood up from the grass, patted the grass clippings on his buttocks and ran down the hillside in a few steps.

  The businessman raised his head slightly and looked at He Boqiang, squinting his eyes like a cunning fox.

   "Northern?" He asked casually, and his eyes fell on He Boqiang's raised biceps.

  He Boqiang nodded.

  People here are very concerned about their identity as northerners.

  Suldak on the side quickly said: "Hey! Larkin, he can't speak, maybe it's the sequelae of the injury, but it's absolutely fine to tell him what to do, just don't expect him to answer."

La Jin looked around slowly from top to bottom, and finally landed on He Boqiang's feet, and sighed: "...he is strong enough, I'm sure he was a warrior before, you really want to stuff him into the caravan inside?"

   Larkin asked Suldak the last sentence with a smile, and it felt like he was joking.

  Suldak frowned, and said impatiently to Larkin: "Can you please tell me something sweet, if you don't want to, I'll go find Big-Eyed Pique."

Seeing that Suldak was not joking, Lajin quickly smoothed things over for himself, and even said: "I didn't say no, please be patient with me, we are fellow villagers, you take care of me, and I take care of you, that's what it should be." !"

Suldak felt that Lakin was still playing tricks, and wanted to reprimand Lakin, but Lakin didn't give him this chance, patted Suldak on the shoulder, and said repeatedly: "Okay, I understand your point." Means, leave him to me, I think he...doesn't really need to be taken care of, I will pay him."

  He Boqiang was dragged away from the barracks by businessman Lakin, and Suldak, who was standing at the gate of the barracks, waved gently to him.

  …

The merchant’s temporary residence is not too far from the military camp. It looks like a lively market. Some tents are set up on both sides of the tent market. There are various daily necessities outside the tents, and various commodities along the street. The merchants will not Giving up any opportunity to make money, the soldiers in the barracks often ran out to buy some daily necessities, and more soldiers ran out to eat a good meal.

  But for the merchants here, these small businesses are not their main business items. Relying on the limited silver coins in the pockets of these soldiers is not worth making them travel thousands of miles to follow the legion to the front line.

The main business here is the military supplies purchased in large quantities in the barracks, including bulk purchases of food, cloth, ironware and many other aspects. In addition, the merchants also collect various trophies on behalf of them, and exchange these trophies into gold coins and silver coins. Feeling more at ease, some large chambers of commerce also have delivery services, and they will send the money saved by the soldiers to their hometowns.

  The 57th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment is in charge of the defense line on the north **** of the forest farm. There are only occasional ghosts here, and the last battle was also a month ago.

  Although He Boqiang didn't show it, he was very grateful to Suldak in his heart.

Thinking that the reason why Suerdak is respected by the merchants is that he possesses a superb skinning technique, looking down at the thick calluses on the mouth of his strong hands, He Boqiang felt that he should also treat himself Pick up the craft you are good at.

The businessman Lajin suddenly stopped, and He Boqiang, who was walking behind with his head bowed, almost knocked him down, and he turned to He Boqiang and said, "Hey, I forgot to ask Duck what your name is, so what should I call you? "

  He Boqiang tried to pronounce it, but his face was flushed. When he spoke, he would subconsciously think of the syllables 'a—o—e'. It seemed that he had to completely forget them.

   "Big guy?"

   Larkin tried to shout.

  He Boqiang's face was a little ugly.

   "Kid from the North?"

   Larkin continued to test.

  He Boqiang glanced to the side.

"Or just come up with a random name, anyway, it's just a code name, how about calling you Morgan, there used to be a big man named Morgan in the caravan, he was a good driver of a carriage." Larkin suggested to He Boqiang without discouragement road.

   Just when He Boqiang felt that he should probably use his previous name, Larkin slapped his forehead hard and asked He Boqiang: "Okay, then what do you want me to call you?...Little Duck!"

  Seeing that He Boqiang hesitated for a moment, and did not continue to make a bad face, the businessman Larkin immediately patted him on the shoulder vigorously, and said excitedly: "Ha, I also think this name is really great!"

  The two walked side by side into this temporary market, and Larkin was still talking endlessly.

  He was very curious about how Suldak said He Boqiang was brought back from the battlefield, so he asked: "I heard that Dak dug you out from the pile of ghost corpses on the battlefield?"

  He Boqiang only occasionally nodded under his gaze.

La Jin took He Boqiang to a camp consisting of three groups of tents, and called over the curly-haired boy squatting on the side of the street guarding the booth and a strong man sleeping outside the tent, and introduced to He Boqiang that the young curly-haired boy was called Gabi, the sleepy-eyed burly man is called Ulysses, and we all want to do things together from now on,

  The curly-haired boy Gabi looked very slippery, smiled at He Boqiang in front of Larkin, and ran back to look at the stall.

   On the contrary, Ulysses, a strong man, was very interested in He Boqiang and offered to extend his hand.

  He Boqiang is used to holding it up, and it feels like a huge iron pliers is clamping his hand, and the strength is getting heavier...

   A triumphant smile appeared on Ulysses' face.

   But before the smile spread completely across his face, Ulysses' dark face slowly became a little stiff.

  He Boqiang let go of his hand calmly, and Ulysses quickly retracted his hand as if bitten by a poisonous snake.

   Larkin just pretended not to see these tentative little moves among his subordinates.

   After greeting the two hired workers, Larkin arranged a place for He Boqiang to live...
