Chapter 19 Rescue (1)

Cons was also thinking about a solution, this was his first time thinking about how to eliminate the enemy.

The environment will change people. In the past, Cons just followed the captain to kill, and killing was his task, and he only needed a flexible and strong body.

And now it was his first time attending a meeting. Seeing that everyone was thinking, he began to use his mind.

When he thought of the inspiration he had obtained from hunting when he saved the princess, he couldn't help but think about all the strategies to capture animals. As he thought about it, he couldn't help but say it out.

"I wonder if these 50,000 people are separated? Or are they together? If they are separated, first destroy the weak, and then wait for the opportunity to destroy the powerful. If they cannot defeat them, they can escape before the stronger ten thousand arrives, and then wait for an opportunity to destroy it."

What Cons muttered was his hunting method when dealing with big and small tigers.

Although Cons's voice was very low, he was in the quiet camp and everyone suddenly woke up.

In fact, they also knew this method, but they all thought about the heavy battle with the Imperial Guards and how to preserve their strength and return to the King Capital. They completely forgot that they could find a weak enemy to fight a victory, and then immediately withdrew to the King Capital.

Kane said happily: "They were separated, and I don't know what happened. The powerful enemy of the Imperial Guards was actually placed in the rear guard. The 30,000 people in front were just some infantry, and they were amazing just a few teams of cavalry."

"Okay! Just decide like this. Kane, you will lead people to reconnaissance the command location of the 30,000 enemy troops, and at the same time determine the position of the rebels."

After discussing with the generals, Alice decided to adopt Cons' proposal and first eliminate the army that was weaker than her, so you must know the correct position of the Imperial Guards and the enemy.

"Yes." Kane quickly got up and saluted.

"The other generals began to prepare for the war! The meeting was dispersed." Alice stood up and ordered.

Everyone stood up and said respectfully: "Yes, I'll send you my Majesty!"

When Alice left, she glanced at Cons, who was standing in the corner with her head down and could not see her expression, sighed in her heart, and without stopping, she took the maid and the guards away.

She now gradually felt that the experience between her and Cons would become a memory.

The good feelings for Cons were strangled by her after she came to this camp.

No, because she is a princess who will become the queen, and Cons is just a soldier.

Although he was the captain of the brigade, in this legion battle, the captain was just a soldier, let alone a captain without subordinates.

It is completely impossible for the princess who is about to become the queen and the soldier who dies at any time. If you kill the good feelings, you will not have love. This is why Alice killed that wonderful time. It is her vigilance towards herself...

Cons didn't pay attention to Alice at all, and it was impossible for him to know what Alice was thinking.

He only knew that he was a soldier, and the enemy had no meaning to him, and he didn't know his goal in life. If he really wanted to say that, he would live until he could never survive.

After Cons left the main camp, he walked in the barracks with nothing to do. Finally, he walked into the barracks where he had just rested. As soon as he sat down, Kane came in.

Cons quickly stood up and saluted, and Kane ordered to him with a blank expression: "Cons, you have been assigned to my troops. Go and perform reconnaissance missions immediately."

"yes."

Cons only knew the reason why he had to do things for others when he had eaten food. But he didn't think about whether it was a great hero who rescued the future queen, and he was sent to reconnaissance the enemy in the middle of the night, nor did he think about whether it was reasonable for him, the captain, to be called as an ordinary soldier.

He could not have known that Kane, a rude guy who looks but is smart inside, would have caught a cold because of Alice's special attention to him.

Kane felt uncomfortable about Alice asking Cons to attend the meeting, and also making Cons feel uncomfortable when speaking.

This is also Kane's deep-rooted idea - the class system is causing trouble. He believes that it is natural for his subordinates to suffer for their superiors.

He also thought that Cons was supposed to rescue Alice, and he didn't have to be so polite to Cons. At most, he would just improve his military rank and reward him with a little money.

After all, it is because Cons is just an ordinary person without a surname.

Cons came to the horse shed, picked up a horse and rode it on, and took the weapons handed over by a cavalry - a spear and a sabre.

Kane's troops were divided into 100 squads, each with ten people. These squads left the barracks in batches to investigate the whereabouts of the enemy.

Cons's rank was the captain of the Hundred-Man Brigade, and this rank was not cancelled due to the demise of the Ninth Legion.

So, he naturally became the commander of his ten-man team. Moreover, he was the ten cavalrymen who led the way for him and Ellie.

This may be a kind of care that Kane showed while catching a cold with Cons. Of course, this is to complete the task. If he changed to some cavalrymen who didn't know Cons, the team would be unable to complete the task because it was difficult to cooperate.

"Sir, which direction should we search?"

The inquiring cavalry was rank of the squad leader. If he hadn't known that Cons was the captain of the infantry squadron and had saved His Majesty's great hero, I believe he would be promoted soon. I'm afraid he would have been rude to each other for a long time, so he would not have been so polite. You know, this squad originally obeyed his orders.

"Sorry, I'm not familiar with the terrain here. Which direction do you think we should search?" Cons asked back.

He said he didn't know anything he didn't know, and he never slapped his face and pretended to be fat, especially in military affairs.

"Uh..." Hearing Cons' rebellious question, not only the captain was stunned, but the other nine soldiers also stared at Cons in a daze.

They have never met a commander who would ask the soldiers for their opinions. The commander directly ordered that the soldiers obeyed.

The captain saw that Cons's eyes were clear and there was a faint smile on his lips waiting for him to answer. He knew that Cons was not laughing at him, but really wanted him to answer.

He calmed down and replied respectfully: "Sir, subordinates believe that we should search for the town a hundred miles southwest. If the enemy has been there or is nearby, the residents of the town will definitely move, because rumors are sometimes much faster than horses."

"Okay, let's go there to search. Could you please lead the way?"

Cons immediately adopted the team leader's opinion. From the team leader's conversation, he guessed that he must have read a book.

Cons respects scholars very much because when he was young, he envied the most were those rich and rich teenagers. Besides, the team leader made sense.

"Uh...yes. Please come with me, the squad leader." The team leader was stunned for a moment.

The commander actually used honorific words to his subordinates. He really couldn't understand what kind of person Cons was.

In this society with strict classes, especially in the army, even if you were an approachable soldier, when you became a commander, you would unconsciously feel superior to ordinary soldiers.

Cons's team followed the captain, and began to cross mountains and ridges with the light of the moonlight, running towards the unknown town.

On the way, Cons approached the cavalry, and after a while, he asked him, "My name is Cons, where is you?" Cons would speak actively to know if the soldier had read a book.

He wouldn't be stupid enough to ask the princess if she had read a book, nor would he want to ask.

In his mind, the princess and he are people from different worlds. As for the team leader, it is because he and Cons are both soldiers and people from the same world.

This also shows that there is still a class system deep in Cons' heart, but his class is only divided into aristocrats and civilians.

This team leader is definitely not a noble, because even the lowest-level nobleman will be the corps leader once he joins the army. If he joins the army in a remote area, he is more likely to become the division commander.

I believe that if there weren't too many nobles in the Seventh Legion, Kane wouldn't be just a team leader.

After joining the army, Cons did not want to study, but firstly, he had war all day and had no time at all. Secondly, the brothers in the military camp were illiterate like him and could not learn even if they wanted to. Others were either illiterate, either high-ranking officials or very busy, so it was impossible to teach Cons.

"Sir, my subordinate is called Weiner." The cavalry was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said his name.

"Wina, you should have read a lot of books?"

"I have only read the Enlightenment Book for a few years."

There was a hint of pride in Vina's expression, because his ancestors were inferior nobles. Although he had no titles now, he could still get the opportunity to learn. However, because of his status as a former noble, he could not get a status all at once, so he had to start as a team leader.

"Oh, I envy you very much."

After saying that, Cons looked up at the dark night sky, sighed deeply, and turned to smile lightly at Weiner, who showed a puzzled expression: "I have been an orphan since I was sensible. Until now, I don't even know a word, so I envy those who have read books."

Perhaps because of the confusion of Mingyue and Xingchen, he blurted out his orphan identity and admitted that he was illiterate.

Hearing this, the ten cavalry were shocked. Not to mention the fact that as a commander, even ordinary people would treat this as a secret, and they would not even be able to disclose it to friends, let alone telling them to people who have known each other for less than a day.

When Cons saw them in shock, he couldn't help but smile.

He never thought he was an orphan or an illiterate thing, nor did he think he would be a dwarf because of it.

He thought it was determined by fate, and he never thought of disobeying because fate was arranged irresistible.

Seeing Cons dismount, everyone stopped.

Did they know why Cons suddenly stopped moving forward because of what he said? However, they soon knew the reason.

After Cons stopped, he found a piece of cotton cloth from the saddle and wrapped the horse's hooves.

It turned out that the sound of the horse's hooves was discovered by the enemy. On this quiet night, the sound of the horse's hooves could be heard far away. Not to mention looking for the enemy, I am afraid that before I discovered the enemy, I might have been shot into a hornet's nest first.

The cavalry all knew about these things, so they immediately tied up their horse's hooves. After tied up their horse's hooves, everyone got on their horses and ran for a while.

Weiner suddenly stepped forward to Cons and said nervously to Cons: "Sir, if you don't dislike it... I can... I will study."

Weiner regretted how he was like this when he said this? Is it because of this man's straightforward tone?

"Really? I'm going to bother you, thank you."

Cons' smile this time seemed a little happy, no longer the faint smile that was indifferent before.

Seeing Cons' smile, Weiner said uncomfortablely: "Uh... I dare not be a good person, sir... you are polite."

He regrets even more now, because since he learned that Cons was an orphan, he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart, which was a sense of protection and jealousy. He didn't expect that his former nobleman would actually be under an orphan, and the orphan would soon get the opportunity to be promoted.

At this time, Cons suddenly made a stop. Although the cavalrymen were strange, they still stopped in a neat and silent manner.

After stopping, they found that there was a fire on the dark road at the foot of the mountain.

Judging from the number of firelights and the speed of movement, it seems that it is a team of more than fifty cavalry. Moreover, their torches are in a semicircular formation, which should be blocking or chasing something.

Soon, everyone knew the target of chasing because there was a large greenhouse moving in front of them, and screams came from time to time.

They also saw that the fifty people were scout cavalry, which was seen from the distance between the torch and the black shadow in front. Only scout cavalry equipped with bows and arrows could kill the people in front of them.

"Do we have scouts here?" Cons asked lightly.

"Sir, no."

"So it's the enemy's troops."

"Yes, sir, we should go back and report immediately, the enemy will arrive soon." This is the suggestion of another cavalryman.

Cons was stunned for a moment. He had experienced this scene and this conversation before, but before Cons could remember the past.

A voice came from the shadows chasing below, which was heard by a strong man with a loud voice: "Brothers! If you escape like this, you will definitely be killed! Anyway, you will die every day, so let's fight with them! Fight one plain book, fight two, and make a profit! Get it!"

Under the instigation of this great man, those who escaped hopelessly began to counterattack.

Suddenly, there were sounds of fighting at the foot of the mountain. In just a while, the black shadow had fallen down, and the torches fell to the ground, extinguishing more than a dozen.

"Sir, the one below may be our people. We should go down to save people now!"

According to the Knight's teachings, Vina said anxiously, and without waiting for Cons' answer, he hurriedly continued: "There are more than 40 enemies left. If we suddenly attacked from the side, under the night, they would not guess our strength at all and would definitely be scared away."
