One by one, the teams set off in an orderly manner. This was due to the academy's emphasis on the compulsory weekly discipline class in the first semester. It finally came in handy at this critical moment.
Through the free teleportation portal specially opened for the army, each team soon arrived at the various gates of Chang 'an. Reynolds's target was Will City in the southeast, so he naturally teleported to the southeast gate. At this time, he had no experience in leading a team. Fortunately, each team had been assigned ten experienced mercenaries in advance. Although they were not at the level of a commander, the mercenaries were known for their organization, so it was not a problem for them to control the team.
As there were students from the special class in the 376th Regiment, the academy specially hired Painted Heart to cheer them on.
The people of the 376th Regiment were the lucky ones. Amidst Painted Heart's inspirational singing, over a hundred Earth Dragon Chariots set off with their blood boiling and fighting spirits high. As the regiment commander, Renault sat on the head of the Earth Dragon Chariot in high spirits, while Irene, who had just been appointed as another adjutant, sat on a Heavenly Spirit Kite and flew high up in the sky.
Reynolds remembered that when he left the Calore Tribe, he was still a jobless person who had yet to apply for a profession certification. Now, he was the leader of a dignified army.
Even though the Earth Dragon Chariots were excellent, it would still take at least four days to reach Will City under the circumstances of speeding up. According to intelligence, the level 3 city corridor in front of Will City was resisting with all its might, but it was almost unable to hold on, and a large number of citizens were being evacuated. It was estimated that the city would be breached soon. The enemy would be able to reach Will City in six to seven days if they were fast. In other words, Reynolds only had two to three days left to prepare everything.
The team still had to rest at night. This was a suggestion. No matter how tight the time was, they could not march through the night. Otherwise, it would cause psychological pressure. Although it was said that the enemy's strength was slightly inferior, many of them were rookies after all. They lacked experience, and the chances of accidents happening were higher. It was better to be safe, lest the army's morale was shaken, and the gains did not make up for the losses.
Reynolds had given the order in the face of danger and had not received any relevant training. Basically, he had to seek the opinions of the other adjutants. His humble attitude in asking questions had won the praise of the other senior members. Coupled with the fact that he was able to come up with some wonderful ideas that were beyond their imagination from time to time, those who were originally dissatisfied with him taking on the role without any experience had now reluctantly accepted this young new regiment commander. The rest of the members were mostly newcomers from Chang 'an Academy and other academies in Chang' an. They were all convinced of Reynolds's strength because he was very famous in Chang 'an. Especially those who had witnessed him defeating Vashlaki and Townsend, they were even more respectful and did not dare to complain. This was a world where power reigned supreme. Whoever had a harder fist would easily gain the trust and respect of others.
Of course, Reynolds's additional suggestions were all based on the military knowledge on Earth. For example, he proposed a tree-like organization. It was so detailed that every five people could form a group, and they would supervise and take care of each other. They would also appoint a group leader. If there were any casualties or other special situations, they could immediately report to the team leader on the next level. The team leader would be the platoon leader, and the adjutant would naturally become the company commander second only to the regiment commander. It was similar to the military hierarchy on Earth.
In addition, there were other things. These theories were very simple for Reynolds. On Earth, even a three-year-old child might have some understanding of them. The Kings' Mainland had to withstand the test of Warcraft's siege every few years, so they were not idiots in terms of cooperation. However, compared to Earth, which had been fighting for thousands of years, there was still an unreachable gap.
As for the role of the troop class, such as long-range and short-range, the strength of defense, direct combat or support, Reynolds did not know much. He was almost no different from a rookie. Naturally, he would listen to the opinions of the experienced ones.
The raging bonfire burned brightly, illuminating Reynolds, Irene and Avina's faces red. The roasted meat on the fire was emitting a rich fragrance, and the fat was dripping down continuously. It was very tempting. When setting up camp, the regiment commander gave them special treatment. They occupied a large area in the middle of the team, and set up a soundproof and protective barrier tent to rest. The others could only use ordinary tents. Although there were fewer Warcraft roaming around this route, there were still sentries patrolling around the team to prevent any accidents.
This large area of the regiment commander's camp was not disturbed by anyone. The nearest one was twenty to thirty meters away. Reynolds called Irene to his own tent a little favoritism. It was not because he wanted to do anything, but because he would be fighting in a few days, so he had to conserve his energy. However, there were too many variables in the war. No one could guarantee a hundred percent victory or defeat. They had to prepare for the worst. Reynolds was very afraid that he would have three deaths and two deaths. Therefore, he seized the opportunity to spend more time with the two girls. He also appointed Irene as an advisor, and Irene as his personal guard. They were both members of the army who would stay by his side at all times. Although it was more scientific, Reynolds was still a little selfish.
The skin of the roasted meat was completely burnt yellow, and the fat was about to dry up. Reynolds knew that the time was right. He took the roasted meat down from the wooden rack, took out a small knife, and cut off a large piece of fat and smooth meat from the hind leg, and handed it to the two people beside him.
Irene smiled brightly as she stuck to Reynolds's side. She first gave Reynolds a bite of the hind leg, then ate it herself. She didn't feel any pressure being with Reynolds.
On the other side, Avina's expression was a little serious. She usually had a good appetite, but she only took two small bites. She looked at Reynolds, wanting to say something.
Reynolds saw this and laughed. "Little Shi Jun, are you a feast for the eyes? You don't need to eat when you see a handsome man like me, right?"
Avina giggled. "How shameless. You're praising yourself."
Reynolds shamelessly said to Irene, "Ling 'er, don't you think I'm the most handsome man in the world?"
Irene rolled her eyes at Reynolds, then giggled. "You're right, you're right."
Avina glared at Reynolds. "You only know how to ask Ling 'er for help."
Reynolds chuckled. He didn't think much of it, but he could see that there was something on her mind. He was just teasing her to relax. If it had to do with the upcoming battle, he still had to ask her clearly. "Shi Jun, do you have any misgivings?"
Avina sighed. "Reynolds, there's something I have to tell you. You have to keep calm."
Reynolds saw how serious she was and nodded seriously. "What is it? Tell me. "
"Do you think there's a problem with you becoming the commander of the 007th Regiment?" Reynolds had always been puzzled about this. Even if the country didn't have any capable people, they still couldn't let a rookie like him become the commander of a regiment. Randolph had solemnly said before they left that they had to listen to the opinions of the other adjutants.
