Chapter 256: Ma Ta Company Camp (1)

Luolin Empire, north bank of Shunuo River, Simeon Army position, inside the main camp.

"General Simeon, the new baggage sent from the south bank this morning has been completely registered and counted. There are no omissions. Here is the list. Please take a look."

A general who looked to be about 30 years old handed a small stack of paper in his hand to a young man in front of him who was a little too young.

"Um."

The young man said "hmm", took the small stack of paper from the general's hand, and then read it quickly.

This young man, who was a little too young, was responsible for commanding 10,000 troops to defend Simeon de Duran on the west side of the north bank of the Shunau River.

In order to train the younger generation of the imperial military and save the current situation of the "aging" of the Luolin Empire's military, Barr and others boldly appointed five young generals and put them in charge. The entire eastern front defends the 40,000 Eastern Route Army of the Britannia Empire.

Among them, Luo Xie, who is the oldest and has the most combat experience, serves as the deputy commander.

Gill, Ode, Eugene, and Simeon served as deputy coaches to assist Roche.

These five people can be said to be the five most promising young people in the Luolin Empire's military circles.

Many people even said that the future of the Luolin Empire's military was supported by these five people.

Simeon is the youngest among the five and the least experienced in combat.

This year I have just turned 20.

However, although he is young, he is still very serious and meticulous in what he does.

Even though it was already late at night, Simeon was still handling military affairs seriously and had not yet gone to bed.

After reviewing all the newly delivered baggage lists recorded in front of him, Simeon nodded with a smile, put the small stack of paper in his hand aside, and said in a praising tone:

"Well done, thank you for your hard work."

After hearing Simeon's praise, the general, who was much older than Simeon, immediately said respectfully:

"Don't take it seriously. This is just what a lower official should do."

Although Simeon was very young, the general still respected him very much.

Putting aside his combat experience and talents, Simeon's attitude alone made the general feel worthy of respect.

In the past ten days since Simeon led an army of 10,000 men and built a defensive position on the west side of the north bank of the Shunau River, the general had hardly seen Simeon sleeping earlier than 11 o'clock.

Basically every day, Simeon would deal with military affairs until late at night, and would not go to bed until today's military affairs were completed.

After handling the military affairs, if there is still time, Simeon will study the map and tactics by himself.

Just Simeon's attitude towards doing things made this general highly respected.

After respectfully declining, the general said to Simeon with a concerned tone:

"General Simeon, it's getting late now. You'd better rest early."

After hearing the concerned words of the general, Simeon took the pocket watch aside and looked at the time.

"ah……"

Simeon said softly, "Ah", and then said with a somewhat helpless tone:

"It's already 23:32...it's so late."

After closing the pocket watch in his hand, Simeon thanked the general in a grateful tone:

"Thank you for your concern, but I still have two military affairs to deal with. I will rest after I finish handling these two military affairs."

After hearing what Simeon said, the general opened his mouth. When he was about to say something more, he paused, and finally closed his mouth. Then he looked directly at Simeon with a bit of admiration. Weng, then said:

"General Simeon. You are so diligent. I have fought with many generals, but for a general like General Simeon who is so diligent,

This is my first time seeing you. "

"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment."

Simeon nodded politely and thanked him, and then continued:

"I am only 20 years old this year. The reason why I have the opportunity to command an army of 10,000 is simply because of my good luck and the love and favor of my seniors."

"Since I am so deeply expected by my seniors, I must work harder than usual, otherwise I will be sorry for the expectations my seniors have for me."

After listening to Simeon's sonorous and powerful words, the admiration in this general's eyes became even stronger.

Afterwards, the general gave Simeon a standard Rollin Empire military salute, and then said loudly:

"Thank you for your hard work! General Simeon! But even so, you must take a good rest! I will go down and rest now!"

"Well, it's getting late now. Remember to go to bed early."

"yes!"

After watching the general leave the camp, Simeon sighed slightly, and then pinched the bridge of his nose.

"I'm a little sleepy too... Come on! Finish these last two military affairs quickly."

After cheering himself up, Simeon raised his hands and slapped his cheeks twice to make himself more energetic. Then he took a piece of paper with Luo Lin written on it from the side of the table, Start concentrating on the last two military matters tonight.

…

More than 2 hours later.

July 18, 290 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire.

2:28 am.

Although it was already early in the morning, a large number of soldiers were still deployed around Simeon's defensive position for defense.

Nearly a thousand soldiers of Simeon's army, each armed with a crossbow, were ambushing around the position.

There was dead silence all around, and no movement could be heard. Only a faint mist filled the air silently.

"Hawu..."

It is already 2:30 in the morning, which is the time when people are most sleepy and tired.

In addition, the Eastern Route Army of the Britannia Army located to the north of them has been silent since the beginning of the war.

As time passed, the soldiers became more relaxed, feeling that tonight would be like usual, a normal, uneventful night.

Not only that, but tonight was unexpectedly a cool night.

It is already summer time, and the Luolin Empire is the most southerly country among the four empires.

"Summer of the Rollin Empire" can be said to be a terrifying thing that makes people all over the world talk about it.

"Don't go to the Holy Hiran Empire in winter, and don't go to Luolin Empire in summer." - This is the consensus of almost everyone in this world.

Tonight is different from the previous nights. It is unexpectedly very cool and suitable for sleeping.

This undoubtedly further aggravated the sleepiness of the soldiers guarding the camp.

Now the soldiers guarding the camp are focusing on how to open their eyes that are about to close, rather than on guarding the surrounding situation.

The soldiers guarding the camp did not notice it.

They didn't find that not far away from them, there was a pair of eyes quietly observing them.

He was watching them quietly with cold eyes.
