GOR Chapter 628 Disobeying Orders Again
"Muse. I saw her in Ajin City from afar. She was wearing armor and uniform and there were some other soldiers beside her … … but from the looks of it, those people are very strange. I sent someone to inquire about them. It seems that they are soldiers from the central battlefront who are gathering supplies … … "
Little Charlie smiled as he spoke. Du Wei's face immediately turned serious.
Du Wei immediately sent someone to write a letter and quickly sent it to the central Wolf Fang Barracks.
But after a while, he called for Elder Smoke.
"Fatty, I am worried that he will not follow orders. You will personally make a trip there! Bring him back here for me! This is simply nonsense! "
•
A few days later … …
The Empire's northern battlefront, south of the central stronghold.
This place was not far from the Empire's air force base. This barracks alone was large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
Although there were not that many soldiers in this barracks, at the entrance of the barracks, soldiers in armor were already busy going back and forth.
A group of carriages drove into the military camp after showing their documents. The carriages behind the carriages were loaded with sacks of food, meat jerky, weapons, armor, and bundles of Heavy Spine Armor-Piercing Arrows.
Inside the barracks, there was a flag with a strange pattern embroidered on it. The strange pattern looked like the sharp fangs of some kind of beast.
On the drill grounds of the barracks, there was no neat drill formation like the other regular armies of the Empire. Instead, there were some soldiers who were training early in the morning. They formed into small teams on the drill grounds and used the terrain of the drill grounds: high and low, broken ground, obstacles and so on to carry out some strange tactical drills.
Some of the warriors were not even wearing armor. Instead, they were wearing strange clothes with strong camouflage effects, such as uniforms with branches and leaves hanging all over them, or helmets made of straw. Some of them had even smeared black and green paint on their faces.
On the edge of the drill grounds, there were some soldiers who had taken off their shirts and were barefooted. They were wrestling with each other. There were many people around them who were watching and shouting.
They didn't look like the regular army of the Empire at all.
This was the only mercenary army officially recruited by the Empire — the Wolf Fang Army. Under the leadership of Longbottom, the Wolf Fang Army had once achieved a miraculous feat and obtained the first airborne victory in a battle behind enemy lines.
Longbottom, the fat man, had led a group of cavalrymen to ride a few rounds around the campsite in the morning. At this moment, he had already moved his body and was sweating profusely. He had taken off his armor and was only wearing his uniform as he strode through the campsite. Along the way, he nodded and greeted those rough men. "Emre, you lost last night in a wrestling match. Be careful not to break your leg!" "Karl, you bastard, you're not allowed to drink in the morning!" "Loki, why are your eyes so red? Could it be that you couldn't sleep because you missed your women last night?"
Although these words were crude, in this place, they were the most common language of the warriors.
It was clear that Longbottom had gained the support of the mercenaries in the Wolf Fang army. Everyone was respectful and affectionate towards him.
The fat man strode through one barrack after another before arriving at his own tent. He kicked open the wooden planks and strode in.
This barrack was next to Longbottom's own. When he walked in, he saw the armor and weapons that were casually thrown on the ground. There was also a faint smell of alcohol in the air.
The fat man wrinkled his nose and frowned.
There was only one bed in the barrack. On the bed, there was a person wrapped tightly in a blanket. She was curled up into a ball and snoring loudly. Probably because she was too tired, she was even snoring intermittently.
The fat man walked to the side of the bed and lowered his head to look at the person on the bed.
Muse, the tomboy, was wrapped in a blanket. However, judging from her exposed shoulders, this girl did not take off her clothes when she slept. Instead, she slept with her clothes on. At this moment, she was lying on her side, tightly hugging a leather bag that contained wine. Because she was sleeping too soundly, her small mouth was slightly open. There were even traces of saliva on the corner of her mouth and the pillow.
"Hmph, such a cute girl. Why does she sleep like a fool? Heavens, she is actually snoring and drooling. "
The fat man raised his eyebrows. He didn't reach out with his hand. Instead, he raised his leg and gently kicked Muse's butt. He shouted, "Hey, tomboy, wake up!"
No response …
"Hey! Wake up! "
Snore … snore …
The fat man became angry. He turned around and walked out of the door. Carrying a bucket of water, he strode back and stood in front of Muse's bed. He pulled out a whistle from his pocket and blew hard …
Muse, who was in her sleep, opened her mouth as though she was still having a beautiful dream. Suddenly, she heard a sharp whistle! That sharp and ear-piercing sound suddenly woke her up!
Then, she heard the fat man's hateful roar …
Emergency assembly?
Muse immediately jumped up from the bed as though it was a conditioned reflex. She subconsciously reached out with her hand to search for the boots that had been thrown by the side of the bed. But when she opened her eyes, she saw the fat man's hateful smiling face by the side of the bed. Before she could cry out …
Splash!
A bucket of cold water was splashed down on her head. Muse was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She screamed and jumped up!
"Bastard! Damned fatty! What are you doing? Are you crazy? "
Muse finally woke up. She stared at the fat man with wide eyes. This hateful fat man had a malicious smile on his face. He was holding onto a bucket of water as he smiled at her.
"Awake? Then hurry up and get up! You are simply a little pig who likes to sleep in … an aristocratic little pig. "
Muse was infuriated and she immediately screamed, "You damned fatty! Who allowed you to run into my room! "After saying that, she subconsciously clutched the blanket tightly.
The fat man sighed and cast a disdainful glance at the girl. "What are you doing? You didn't take off your clothes anyways … besides, with your age, you are too young to be my daughter. Listen up, this is the military camp! Right now, the sun is shining on your buttocks. Are you still going to hide under the blanket? "
Muse looked helplessly at the shameless fatty and fell down on the bed once more. She groaned, "I beg you, fatty … today is my day off! Damn it! Today is my day off! I only returned from the eastern battlefront yesterday! I rode back and forth for six days! I brought back a total of 26 carts of supplies for you! Now, I am on holiday! Do you know what holiday means? "
Longbottom did not seem to realize what was going on and he continued to smile. "Of course I know. I was the one who personally approved the holiday. But … "
He suddenly reached out with his hand to pick up the wineskin on the bed and shook it a few times. "It's empty … you can really drink. It seems your alcohol tolerance has increased. But, you bastard, did you forget my orders?! Those who are on holiday are allowed to move about freely within the camp. However … you are not allowed to drink in the camp! "
After saying that, the fat man appeared to have caught hold of something and he smiled as he stared at Muse.
Muse was not afraid at all. He glanced at the fat man and retorted, "Damn fatty, I stole this wineskin from your room."
"Err …"
He quickly shook the wineskin and screamed, "Bastard! This is my treasure! You actually drank it all! "
Muse shook his head and lifted up the blanket. He crawled to the side of the bed and groped around the floor for a while. "Fatty, where did you kick my boots?"
"On your feet." Longbottom angrily pinched the empty wineskin. "Do you not take off your boots when you sleep?"
Only then did Muse jump to the ground. He stretched his body and randomly grabbed his armour and weapon to put them on. Then, he turned around and glared at Fatty. "Even if you are my commanding officer, you can't just barge into my room … … also, the next time you wake me up, you are not allowed to splash water on me! Now, I need to wash my face … "
"Sorry, there is no more water for you to wash your face." The fat man pointed at the empty bucket. "You have already used up your water."
This was the military camp after all. Every soldier only had one bucket of water to use every day.
Muse looked angrily at the empty bucket and raged, "You! Do you know? In order to complete your task, I have not slept for three days! I have not washed my face for three days! You actually! I am a girl! Girls need to be clean! "
The fat man crossed his arms and smiled at her. Then, he deliberately said, "Oh, you are a girl? I forgot that you are a girl. Look at your current appearance. "
Indeed, if one had to describe Muse's current appearance, there was only one simple word to describe it: Sloppy!
Extremely sloppy!
Her hair was a mess and her face was covered in dirt – she had been running around for the past few days to gather rations and supplies. When she returned last night, she was extremely tired. After drinking the wine, she fell asleep and did not bother to wash up.
Her clothes were originally white, but now they were covered in suspicious stains, yellow dust, and traces of alcohol … …
Looking at her appearance, who would have thought that she was the young master (miss?) of the Lister Family. Moreover, she was a nobleman with mysophobia!
Since running away from home to the North, Muse had no other choice but to seek shelter from the fat man. Hiding in the military camp, she became an officer under the fat man. Of course, she didn't have an official position because this was a mercenary army. Aside from the nominal leader, the fat man and Hussain, the others didn't have an official position.
Every day, she would train with the vulgar mercenaries, climb and roll, ride horses, and train in the wilderness. Every time she would walk, it would take two to three days. Sleeping in the wilderness, drinking water from the stream, eating dry rations, and not bathing for several days was a common occurrence.
After coming to the North, she had been hiding by the fat man's side, but … … She didn't even know what she was hiding from.
Later, when Du Wei led his troops to the North and became the commander of the eastern front, the fat man wanted to send her to the East. But this girl refused no matter what. Perhaps it was because Gabriel was in the East?
But that didn't seem to be the case … …
She continued to stay by the fat man's side.
As for the fat man's mercenary army, nominally, they belonged to the central war zone. But because they disobeyed orders and launched the airborne attack, the plan was successful and the fat man received a reward. This mercenary army also received the official name "Wolf Fang Army".
But this made the Tempest Legion's higher-ups who originally looked down on this group of "motley crew" even more dissatisfied! Even if the battle was successful, the higher-ups of the Tempest Legion hated the fat man and this mercenary army even more. In addition to the original term "motley crew", they also added "not willing to be assigned".
Plus, the central Tempest Legion didn't achieve any good results, so the fat man's mercenary army received a reward, which inevitably made the higher-ups jealous.
As a result … the Wolf Fang Army was treated with disdain when it came to supplies. When it came to the distribution of supplies, the Storm Legion would often make things difficult for them, cut off, obstruct, and delay the distribution of supplies ….
The fat man had a bad temper to begin with, so he simply fell out with the people of the Tempest Legion.
Fortunately, General Andre of the Air Force had a close relationship with the Tulip Family. With his support, the Air Force's supplies were often transferred to the fat man's side. But the fat man who had enough of the Tempest Legion's disdain, simply sent someone to contact Du Wei after Du Wei went to the North.
Du Wei naturally wanted to protect his own people. Since then, although the fat man's mercenary army remained in the central war zone, all the supplies were transported from the eastern front.
Muse refused to go to the East and insisted on staying by the fat man's side, but the fat man didn't care. A few days ago, he asked Muse to personally lead a team to the eastern Golden City to receive this month's supplies. Muse's team traveled back and forth for six days, which was really tiring.
Speaking of which, the fat man took good care of Muse. He gave her a separate barracks and took good care of her on a daily basis. Although there was a woman in the barracks, these mercenaries weren't regular soldiers anyway. The Empire's mercenary industry wasn't without women (such as Ruo Lin in the past), so the mercenaries didn't make too much of a fuss.
"Okay, okay." Looking at Muse's murderous eyes, the fat man waved his hand: "I woke you up out of kindness … … You don't know what's good for you. Quickly get up, there's good news. If you're late, don't blame me for not taking care of you. "
Muse had already equipped her weapon. She casually wiped her hands from the bucket, dipped her palms in water, and rubbed her face. She stroked her hair and said: "Okay, what good news?"
"We're going to set off." There was a strange smile on the fat man's face: "I will personally lead the team … … we'll circle around the fortress and head west. Then … … we'll quietly sneak behind the enemy and get some loot! Heh heh, now is the season for harvesting food. We can't just sit around and cause trouble for them. "
Muse's eyes immediately lit up: "It really is a good thing! All right, at least you have a conscience. You didn't forget to wake me up for such an interesting thing. "
"Let's hurry up! We'll be ready to set off soon. "
When they reached the door, the fat man suddenly stopped. He turned around to look at Muse and hesitated for a moment. "There is one more thing … … Muse, you being here with me is something that cannot be hidden from others. I believe the Duke will find out about it sooner or later – maybe he already knows about it. Maybe, in the next few days, he will send a letter asking me to send you over … … "
Muse's eyes immediately turned blank. She froze for a moment before shaking her head vigorously: "I won't go! I won't go anywhere! I don't want to become Du Wei's subordinate … … I hate that fellow the most. "
The fat man rubbed his chin and snickered. His smile was somewhat strange: "That is up to you … … however, if the boss finds out that I am secretly helping you hide, I fear that I will have to be beaten by the military again."
Muse rolled her eyes: "You have a body of fat, they won't be able to hurt you."
After hesitating for a moment, Muse retracted her smile. She lowered her voice and spoke with a sincere tone: "Actually … … I know that you take good care of me … … thank you, Uncle Longbottom."
Hearing that, the fat man's face turned as though he had just seen a ghost. It was as though an egg had been stuffed into his mouth. He stared at Muse with widened eyes: "You! What did you call me? You actually called me uncle? Oh my God! "
Muse made a face and smiled sweetly: "Isn't that right? You said it yourself, I am too young to be your daughter. "
"This senior is not even 40 years old!" The fat man shouted angrily. After saying that, he stretched out his thick palm and slapped Muse's head: "Don't call me that! Son of a bitch. "Although he spoke in a relaxed manner, a trace of pain flashed through his eyes.
Muse saw that and lowered her voice: "Fatty … … I heard that you had a daughter in the past … …"
"None of your business." The fat man became angry and stretched out his leg to kick Muse. However, Muse jumped to avoid him: "Hurry up and get your horse! Go gather at the entrance of the camp! If you are late, I will beat you with the military rod! "
Muse stuck out her tongue and quickly ran out. As she walked past the fat man, she whispered: "Thank you."
Seeing the little girl running away, Longbottom sighed. He looked at the back view of the little girl who was leaving and a trace of genuine kindness and warmth appeared within his eyes.
He pinched his pocket … … there was a letter in his pocket. It was written by Du Wei.
He had lied to Muse earlier … … Du Wei was not 'going to find out sooner or later', he already knew! He already knew that Muse was here.
The letter was sent by horse last night. In the letter, Du Wei wanted the fat man to immediately send Muse to Ajin City – if she refused, he would tie her up and bring her there!
Those were Du Wei's original words in the letter.
However, this time, the fat man acted on his own initiative and disobeyed Du Wei's order – at any rate, this was not the first time he had disobeyed an order.
Because … … back then, when this poor tomboy came running to him on a horse, this little girl who had always had a strong expression on her face like a little hedgehog, when she came running to him, her face was filled with exhaustion and weakness. The sadness in her eyes caused the fat man to feel pity for her.
These days, she was here with a group of rough men, eating meat, drinking wine and shouting loudly. She appeared to be happy, but … … which girl would sleep with a wine bag in her room at night?
That mark on the pillow … … is it really just saliva?
Or … … tears?
"Motherfucker." The fatty rubbed his chubby cheeks and said, "These young bastards are so lovey-dovey. How troublesome. How can it compare to when I was young, when I could love and hate whenever I wanted to? If I like a woman, I can just openly snatch her away. Young people these days are really suffering because of their pride! "
— — —
Holding Du Wei's handwritten letter, Old Smoke rushed all the way to the Wolf Fang camp with a group of cavalry. By the time he arrived, it was already evening.
But in the end, he was one step too late. The Wolf Fang soldiers told him that Commander Longbottom had sent a thousand men out to "hunt" this morning.
"Hunt" was a slang term used by these mercenaries. In fact, they were taking a detour to harass the enemy's rear.
Longbottom was not present, so Old Smoke inquired about Muse's appearance in the camp. Sure enough, many people recognized her. But they soon learned that Longbottom had taken Muse with him.
Old Smoke sighed … … Sure enough, it was just as the Duke had predicted. If he was late, it would've been too late.
This Longbottom had disobeyed his orders again.
