Chapter 35 Goulan Street, Shili Temple!
"Gopher, fourteen years old, Shili Temple on Goulan Street!" Gopher stood in front of the middle-aged man in chainmail, reported his name, age, and address, and then looked at him.
The middle-aged man looked at the young man in front of him, uh... let's just think of him as a young man for now! My mood is a bit complicated and my mind is a bit confused. Because the one in front of me is one year older than the previous monkey, but his figure...
It was one size smaller than the previous monkey. It also had pointed ears and cheeks, but it was a little different from the monkey. At first glance, it looked a bit like a huge rat. The same thing between him and the previous two is that his address is Shili Temple, Goulan Street.
"Over there..." The middle-aged man no longer had the same attitude towards Monkey Naya as before. Instead, he pointed in the direction of the stone lock and started to register. It can be seen that his movements are a little stiff at this time.
The gopher walked towards the stone lock. Almost everyone looked at him. There was already a miraculous monkey before. They were thinking, is this also going to challenge the heaviest stone lock?
Their guess was correct. The gopher did not show his speed. In fact, he was faster than the monkey. He walked slowly to the largest stone lock, and everyone stared at it with wide eyes.
However, the gopher did not disappoint them. He really lifted the huge stone lock. Although it seemed to take more effort than the monkey, he still persisted for three seconds before putting it down.
Everyone present felt the urge to curse at their mother. Are they even fucking human? This is going against the laws of nature. Thinking about their size and strength, many people want to find a hole in the ground and burrow down...
"Enter... Private First Class!" The middle-aged man swallowed hard, and then gave the gopher the sign that represented First Class Soldier. He was a little confused at this time.
Recruitment just started today, and he had the same idea as other officers. They predicted that there would be more people signing up on Goulan Street, but the overall quality would definitely be lower. When the recruitment started, it was exactly what he thought. Most of the successful applicants were auxiliary soldiers.
But since the previous iron tower came, the three in succession are all superior soldiers, and they are the strongest among the superior soldiers. You know, most of the superior soldiers cannot lift the heaviest stone lock.
What's more, the last two, their body types...
"Next!" The middle-aged man shook his head vigorously to wake himself up as soon as possible, and then continued.
"Fat man, thirteen years old, Shili Temple on Goulan Street." The one who came out this time is still not normal, but it is exactly the opposite of the two above. Thirteen years old, that fat body...
It probably weighs nearly a hundred kilograms, right?
The middle-aged officer's striking ability was much stronger now, and he no longer asked about their strange names. Everything continued in an orderly manner, but when the fat man raised the largest stone lock with one hand, he let it go again. He feels a little dizzy...
"Black Eagle, fourteen years old, Shili Temple on Goulan Street..."
This one looks more normal, except that the skin is really darker, but the eyes are very sharp.
"Luo Ming, fourteen years old, Shili Temple on Goulan Street..."
"Xiao Zhiyu, fifteen years old, Shili Temple, Goulan Street..."
The next registration made the middle-aged officer feel like he was in a dream. All those who came from Shili Temple on Goulan Street had the result of lifting the heaviest stone lock, and the latter ones all looked relatively relaxed...
"Ten Mile Temple on Goulan Street? What kind of temple is this for gods? If you have time, I'm afraid I have to go and worship the gods!" The middle-aged officer couldn't help but think in his heart. There have been more than ten in a row just now, and not a single accident has happened. , even though the latter body types look more consistent with their age.
"Xiao He, thirteen years old, Shili Temple, Goulan Street." Finally, it was Xiao He's turn, and the crisp voice woke up the middle-aged officer as if he was in a dream.
"Huh..." The middle-aged officer saw a little girl who was only in her teens, and immediately wanted to shout something nonsense, but when he heard the Shili Temple on Goulan Street behind him, he swallowed back his words. , and then started to register in a daze, not forgetting to point towards Shi Suo.
Logically speaking, it is illegal for women to join the army, because in the military camp, they are all men, and they are all hot-blooded and impulsive men. If a woman appears among them, the consequences will be clear if you think about it...
But the middle-aged officer seemed not to have thought of this just now. He only heard the address of Shili Temple on Goulan Street. When registering, he had already taken out a metal sign representing a superior soldier. He was so used to it that he became numb. Yes, it seems that we have passed the Eighteen Goulan Street and Shili Temple just now. Have there been any accidents?
Xiaohe's figure is actually very slender, but somehow she is taller than the monkey and gopher.
The result was just as they expected. The fragile little girl actually lifted the huge stone lock above her head. Although her face looked a little red, she still managed to hold on for three seconds.
Then, Xiao He naturally took the metal sign and walked towards the big tent.
The recruitment is still going on, and people are joining the queue one after another. However, since I didn't hear the address of Shili Temple on Goulan Street, there has never been such a strange scene. Although there are a few others who performed well, but compared to those individuals from Shili Temple on Goulan Street, the gap is beyond reason...
In that tent, Bai Yuzhe and a group of people gathered in a corner, not talking to anyone, and they all sat cross-legged, as if they were meditating. Bai Yuzhe behaved the same way when registering. He didn't think about making any big noise.
Of course, the movement of these nineteen people is already big enough. I believe it won’t be long before the name of Shili Temple on Goulan Street will be spread in Floating City.
In this big tent, the nineteen of them seemed out of place. No one else dared to approach easily, nor did they dare to point casually. It’s just that many people are secretly amazed and talking.
In fact, many people knew Bai Yuzhe and the others. After all, they all lived on Goulan Street. It's just that the current Bai Yuzhe and the others are like a completely different group of people from the people they knew before.
The recruitment process lasted until the evening, and today's work was not completed until the sun set. In fact, by the afternoon, the Silver Wolf Kingdom's attack had already begun again, but they could not feel it in the south of the city.
The number of soldiers recruited on Goulan Street today was pretty good, about two thousand. After today's recruitment ended, the middle-aged officer did not take them to the city lord's mansion in the north of the city, but to a camp in the south of the city.
The military camps in Floating City are not only located in the north of the city, but there are also several in other places.
After arriving at the military camp, everyone had dinner, and then, under the leadership of several captains, they settled down in their residences.
These two thousand people were divided into small teams, each team consisted of twenty people, then five small teams formed a large group, and five large groups formed a battalion. Nineteen people like Bai Yuzhe were divided into a team. Because of their special characteristics, no one else was willing to join their team to match the number. The captain was also watching today and knew the situation of these nineteen people, so he did not force it.
"Boss, do you think our performance today is too eye-catching?" Luo Ming asked worriedly in the camp. Each team was divided into a camp, and the nineteen of them were naturally together.
"It's okay, don't worry, it doesn't matter if you keep a high profile. Otherwise, if you are an auxiliary soldier or a low-level soldier, you may not have many opportunities to actually play." Bai Yuzhe said.
Everyone else nodded, and they would do whatever Bai Yuzhe said.
"Okay, everyone, let's start practicing. It is said that there will be a day of training tomorrow, and then they will be transferred to the north of the city to participate in the war!" Finally, Bai Yuzhe gave an order, and then started practicing again.
In fact, under normal circumstances, the threshold for Yu State's recruitment is different from this, and the training is not one day, but more than a month before they can be put on the battlefield.
But now is an extraordinary period, and naturally there is no way to do the same as before. Otherwise, by the time they finish training, God knows whether the gate of the floating city will have been breached.
Early the next morning, at dawn, all the recruits had already gathered on the school grounds. After last night, their arms had also been divided into different groups. Of these two thousand people, more than a thousand were auxiliary soldiers. There were only two squads of superior soldiers, including nineteen people like Bai Yuzhe.
The others were all lowly soldiers.
Therefore, the content of their training is also different and divided into three groups.
The main function of the auxiliary soldiers is to carry combat supplies from the bottom of the city wall to the top of the city wall, and do other chores. If the battle situation is not urgent, they will not directly face the enemy.
The role of the lower-class soldiers is to release logs, fuel oil, rolling stones, etc., to suppress the city with bows and arrows, etc. When defending the city, it is not their turn at all. The superior soldiers basically have to fight head-on. Of course, if there is a shortage of manpower when defending the city, they will also have to help, and the newly recruited superior soldiers will not be allowed to serve as archers.
Archers require long-term training, and their arm strength is also very important.
A day's training is actually about arranging some basic formations, and then explaining some military regulations, so that everyone can understand that a soldier's bounden duty is to obey orders absolutely.
After the day's training, early in the morning on the third day, Bai Yuzhe and others set off towards the north of the city under the leadership of a general. Today, they are going to climb the city wall and start the battle to defend the city.
The work of recruiting soldiers has never stopped and continues every day...
