Chapter 763

At the bear regiment station 20 kilometers west of the ghost forest development site of Dodo Kingdom, the old leader Barrett sat at the head of the Council hall and was distracted by the secret order from Yinyue manor ten days ago.

The secret order was written by Lilia herself, stamped with the seal of the family manager, and asked him to take the bear regiment to the Raven town at the north end of the human horse hill within two months, and then the fourth Randall regiment reorganized the bear regiment mercenaries, which was then included in the fourth mercenary regiment sequence. The family members of the bear regiment mercenary gave landers a tenant registered residence, and each family allocated 50 mu of rotation for farming, and they were relieved of their rent for two years.

Mrs. Lilia's offer is generous, which is the capital to buy people's hearts for Barrett, but her secret order does not mention Barrett's post after his return to the family.

Barrett is a war bear veteran who watched the Nelson brothers and sisters grow up. At that time, although the life of the War Bear mercenary regiment was hard, Lilia was also the apple of the big guy's eye. If Lilia wants to buy uncle Barrett with power and wealth now, she will make the old mercenary feel sad.

The reason why Barrett was upset was by no means greed for the position of head of the bear group. Ordinary people grow up at the age of 15 and live to the age of 65. He has reached the age of 55 and has entered the twilight of his life. Although he practices secret skills and his family regularly provides valuable life prolonging potions, his energy can not be compared with his prime of life. A little ambition in his youth has long been consumed in his wandering career as a mercenary. Even if he returned to Randall's leadership, he did not want to hold a position in the family. He was only willing to carefully teach his underage children and pave the way for future generations.

The reason why old leader Barrett feels embarrassed is that he has lost control of the bear group, or in other words, it would be more accurate: he has not mastered the real bear group, not in the past, not now, and even more impossible in the future.

The bear Group originated from a whimsical dream of his highness Randall. The infantry array he designed was worthless by Mrs. Nicole, and the result of military chess deduction was a defeat. At that time, his highness Randall, who was still young, was very unwilling. In order to accumulate the actual combat experience of the large legion, he decided to set up a super large mercenary regiment. Then, a group of inexperienced buns and bear mercenaries raised their hands and feet to express their approval, mainly because the elite guards of his highness Randall were powerful and gave them inexplicable confidence. Later, Barrett became the head of the bear group. With a large sum of money and more than 30 Randall elite guards, he ran excitedly from the horse hills to the south of Dodo Kingdom, took in wandering mercenaries, villains and small refugee groups, pulled up a team of hundreds of people and formed the bear group.

Barrett now recalls that in the early days of the bear regiment, it was actually an out and out large refugee Gang, which could not receive any mercenary tasks. He robbed a lot of hired workers such as building roads and houses, which was also won by fighting and mainly by low-cost competition. Therefore, the regimental commander Barrett had to support hundreds of mouths out of his own pocket.

It was not until his highness Randall ordered Barrett to cooperate with Nelson and ambush count Ludwig in Dengshi city of Dodo kingdom that the bear regiment changed from a refugee Gang to a mercenary armed force.

With the elite guards and mountain hunters sent by his highness Randall, the bear regiment not only completed the ambush task, but also made rapid progress in its own strength. It was hung under the name of Sophia's mother, which attracted the attention of Lord dodo.

The bear regiment emerged in the mercenary world, but it began to accept the employment of Lord dodo at the ghost forest development point to fight against the grassland jackals and forest jackals.

At that time, Lord dodor's main army went north to fight against the Centaur army, unable to take into account the defense of the ghost forest development point, and the refugees and employees of the development point fled one after another. In order to stabilize the situation, Lord dodo offered very favorable conditions and wantonly recruited mercenaries and rangers to take over the garrison task of the ghost forest development point.

The mercenary regiment disbanded by Wimbledon chamber of Commerce was worried about not having a job. They joined forces to accept the employment of Lord dodo, dominated by the most powerful head Barrett, and played the banner of bear regiment for the first time.

The troops of the dodos left in the development point of the ghost forest were pitifully small, and the mercenaries and Rangers became the main armed forces against the jackals. In order to facilitate unified command, the garrison priest of the development point came forward in person. He decided to incorporate all large and small mercenaries into the name of the largest bear group.

It was the most prosperous period of the bear regiment, with more than 3000 armed mercenaries and more than 8000 mercenary families. Mercenaries fight and their families work. The income collected by the bear group in the development point only needs to deduct 11 taxes, and then turn in 20% to Lord dodo. The rest is sold to the development point and belongs to the bear group. The dodos also sold half used armaments to the bear regiment and even helped them form a 200 strong cavalry force.

The ghost forest development point seems to have become an independent kingdom of the bear group. The old head of Barrett is also the consul of the development point, if not the king.

However, the bear group seems to have a large scale. After all, it is a combination of refugee mercenaries and Rangers. No matter what their strength, all the mercenary commanders, big or small, are old and crafty. They joined forces vertically and horizontally in the battle and gradually formed several powerful forces, which could compete with the old head for the voice of the bear regiment. Barrett had to assign eight Deputy commanders to them. In fact, he adopted a compromise strategy.

After all, he is old and his talent is limited. Even several mercenary regiments of the chamber of commerce with him were pulled away.

Up to now, the mercenaries of the bear regiment controlled by Barrett account for only one tenth of the total number. Lilia asked him to take the bear regiment back to Randall. The eight deputy heads had their own thoughts, and I'm afraid it was not so easy to get rid of them.

When Barrett was secretly worried, the door of the Council hall was pushed open from the outside, and a young maid with brown and red ponytail broke in and shouted happily: "Hey, uncle, you asked me to come over. Have you made up your mind to ask me to take over as the head of the bear regiment? I tell you, I'm not so easy to promise. You have to sincerely beg me three times... Er, twice, I'll reluctantly promise."

Her voice is a little hoarse, but full of youth and vitality, with a lovely enthusiasm.

Barrett forgot his sorrow for the time being and couldn't help laughing: "deputy commander weir, you're not the only one staring at my seat. As long as everyone obeys you, just take the seat of the head of the bear regiment."

"Uncle, you are ready to give way to me! Don't worry, give me the bear regiment, and I will take it to the peak and become the largest mercenary regiment in the history of the human country!" The female mercenary with ponytail had bright eyes, patted her full chest and promised.

Barrett couldn't laugh or cry, and he was not surprised by the other party's style. The eight deputy heads of the bear group wanted to oust the old head, but only octavel publicly said he wanted to be the head, but he wouldn't be disgusted.

He deliberately joked with will and reminded him with a smile: "I've been a mercenary for most of my life. I haven't heard of a mercenary regiment bigger than the bear regiment."

"I will carry forward the bear regiment and make it a legendary mercenary regiment." Said the maid very seriously.

She is about 20 years old, wearing bright and clean half body armor and women's long boots with half high heels. This tight dress is clean and powerful, highlighting her tall and slender figure and straight and slender legs, leaving a good impression of intelligence and ability; her facial features are beautiful, her full and smooth forehead to her upturned nose outline the lines of wisdom, and her skin is healthy Wheat color, gray green, smart and pure eyes, always with a small sly smile at the corners of her mouth, and there is a shallow arc scar on her left cheek, extending from the corners of her eyes to her chin, which does not damage her beautiful appearance, but adds a trace of resolute and wild charm.

Barrett looked at her bright eyes and couldn't help imagining that the bear regiment had become a legendary mercenary regiment in her hands. The old mercenary had to admit that deputy commander octavel had a convincing charisma.

He shook his head, put this unrealistic fantasy out of his mind, raised his finger to the chair in front of the desk and said, "let's sit down and talk."

The youngest deputy head of the bear regiment sat on the chair and asked with a smile, "uncle, how can we hand over?"

Barrett waved his hand and said wearily, "no kidding, let's talk about business... The situation of the bear regiment has become worse and worse since the end of the five-day war. You should have heard the rumor in the regiment. What do you think?"

"Rumors... What rumors?" The young maid blinked and asked innocently.

Octavel, a 23-year-old female Ranger, is a junior trainee knight and the head of the fire lion mercenary regiment. She has the shortest time to join the bear regiment and the weakest power to gather. However, she can stand out from many mercenary heads and Rangers and become the deputy head of the bear regiment, which shows her ability.

Barrett doesn't expect to bring the whole bear group back to the man horse hill now, but if someone can help him take more than half of his hands away, it must be octavel.

We should start with the five-day war last year.

In January of last year's windy season, the southward migration of Sasan refugees officially ended. More than 5000 mercenary soldiers from the man horse hills no longer need to protect the refugee migration channel. They were ordered by the Duke of York to evacuate along the ghost forest development point. The Dodo people asked the bear regiment to take over the sentry camp abandoned by the Gambis mercenary Corps until the Dodo army officially settled in.

At that time, the armed mercenaries of the bear regiment were only more than 3400. In order to take over the abandoned sentry camps, Barrett urgently armed more than 600 young men and women. The troops were still stretched out. The bear regiment had to withdraw all the guard mercenaries on the front line of the ghost forest. More than 4000 bear regiment mercenaries were scattered in large and small sentry camps. The garrison force was weak and lost the ability of mobile reinforcement power.

However, the Dodo people promised to send troops to settle in, but there was no news. The Jackal tribe in the ghost forest had long been unified under the oppression of human pioneers. The warning forces outside the forest withdrew, and they finally United. In the late night of February 11 in the wind season, more than 6000 jackals gathered three times the number of goblins and gopher slaves from the ghost forest He rushed out and attacked the forward sentry camp where the bear mercenaries were stationed.

Bear regiment's general garrison bears the brunt. Tens of thousands of ORC monsters hit the Garrison's defense line like a raging tide. Bear regiment mercenaries bowed down and repulsed their attacks again and again with strong bows and crossbows, but the cunning jackal leader saw the weakness of the Garrison's defense line and drove the powerful bear goblins and dog headed men to break down a section of iron and wood fence.

The orcs rushed into the camp of the bear regiment, where there were thousands of families of mercenaries, old and weak women and children. In front of the man eating monster, humans had no way out. The mercenaries of the bear regiment showed unimaginable courage and strength. Anyone who could hold weapons was fighting hard even with a stick and pitchfork. The camp was stained with blood, and the bodies of the orcs and mercenaries could be seen everywhere. The mercenaries drove the orcs away several times He went out and was attacked several times. The cruel tug of war finally drove back the goblins, dog headed men and jackals from night to dawn, and filled the gap of the fence with obstacles.

Both sides were badly wounded and exhausted. Seeing that the attack failed, the Jackal leader led half of the orcs to the north.

The mercenaries in the bear regiment soon realized that the jackals were ready to attack the rest of the small strongholds. Those sentry camps were empty, ranging from hundreds to dozens, and could not stop the jackals' attack at all. However, the mercenaries in the camp were no longer able to fight, and more than half of the monsters outside the fence were eyeing them. We can only send out letter crows to inform the bear mercenaries in each stronghold that orcs are coming, and urge the commander of Dodo in the rear development point to send cavalry support.

Mercenaries can't beat the jackals on the grassland with their legs, and they can't hold their stronghold. How many mercenaries can live and reunite with their families depends on the speed and direction of Dodo cavalry reinforcement. The only thing you can do is pray to the Supreme Lord of light.

Except octavel

She tied the flag of the bear group to the spear, with a long sword in her waist and crotch, picked up the shield of the dead, crossed the barrier at the fence break in spite of the dissuasion of her companions, rushed to the open space outside the range of the bow and arrow, and faced the dark Orcs alone.

No one dared to chase octavel back, and no one understood what she was going to do. The only explanation was that the beautiful young maid was stimulated and deliberately wanted to die. Such things are common in young mercenaries.

Everyone watched numbly as she used her shield to resist the goblin's bow and stone bullet, and stabbed the Jackal and bear goblins near her with a spear wrapped in a bear ball. She dances like a light deer among the sharp teeth and claws of the Jackal; Like a vigorous female leopard, she fiercely kills every flawed monster; Like a cunning wolf, she rushed back to the station unharmed before being surrounded by monsters.

The bear regiment mercenaries used bows and crossbows to meet the sober octaville. Some congratulated, some were indifferent, some ridiculed and some praised, but she responded to all the voices with her raised chin and tight lips. After a short rest, she rushed out of the garrison defense circle again holding the mercenary FLAG embroidered with bear head.

Then the third, fourth and fifth

Barrett will never forget his lonely and slender back, proudly holding up the broken flag dyed red by blood in the morning. She is a ray of light on the battlefield, dispelling the fear and weakness in the hearts of mercenaries.

Octavel's sixth attack was accompanied by soldiers of the fire lion mercenary regiment; The seventh time, the deputy head of the bear group, "spurs" bikedorn led his men to follow her around; On the eighth attack, the Ranger blind swordsman quiker and the deputy head of the bear regiment "blood eagle" Harlem joined her command; On the ninth attack, the old leader Barrett handed over his most elite black crow guard to octavel. She took over the command of the bear regiment in a hail.

Great leaders can always inspire the inner courage of their followers and point out the direction of victory for them.

Octavel proved it. Under her leadership, the bear mercenaries became one for the first time. After paying the price of bleeding, they gradually became united and moved forward and backward freely.

She is always able to accurately predict the battlefield situation, exchange the smallest price for the greatest results, and command the bear mercenaries to attack, retreat and rest alternately. The distant jackal leader was attracted back by the battle outside the ground, but it didn't help. The stupid ORC was still led by the nose by octavel's simplest tactics.

Relying on the fortification of the station, octavel commanded the bear mercenaries to entangle with the orc monsters for four days and three nights, and the mercenary partners stationed at the sentry along the way survived.

On the morning of the fifth day, the passionate horn of the Dodo cavalry sounded through the battlefield, and the iron wall Knights wiped out the forest jackals who besieged the bear regiment.

When the five-day war ended, the bear mercenaries raised their female martial god octavel and the dark red bear flag into the air with countless hands.

Octavel, young female Ranger, deputy head of the bear group, female martial god of the bear group.

The scar on her face was left by the Jackal leader, but the violent and cunning beast paid the price of its life. A dozen black crows rushed at it recklessly, and octavel's spear flag pierced its heart.

The resident priest was willing to ask a high-ranking priest to remove the scar on her face, but octavel refused. She said it was a witness of glory. She would remember those sacrificed companions when she looked in the mirror every day.

Aristocrats pay attention to appearance. Octavel is a junior trainee knight who wakes up by washing medicine. She had the opportunity to marry a little aristocrat by virtue of her war achievements. Because of the scar on her face, her chance is very small.

The Randall family also valued the knight's blood and strength, but also valued the talent pattern of people. Barrett felt that if octavel could be brought back to Pinghu Town, even if most bear mercenaries were unwilling to follow him, they would make a profit.

The old regimental commander was hot in his heart, but his expression was particularly serious. He said in a deep voice, "octaville, there are rumors within the bear regiment that the five-day war may be a conspiracy of the dodos... I think so."
