   Chapter 1007 993. Quartermaster's troubles

At night, when camping in a riverside camp, each squadron will send down five marching tents. There is no need to consider drinking water when camping by the river, but the problem is that there are too many mosquitoes. This is the southernmost rainforest on the Ganbu plane. , No matter where you camp, you will inevitably have mosquitoes.

  When camping in summer, tents are also built, in fact, to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes while sleeping.

   It's just that there are twelve recruits in each tent, which is indeed a bit crowded for this kind of standard marching tent.

Although there was no yellow mutton soup in the evening, the dinner turned into oatmeal mixed with cabbage and luncheon meat. Even Quintas the Great Swordsman couldn't figure out where Suldak got so much of cabbage.

When the new army climbed out of the tents the next morning, they found that there were twelve pairs of long leather boots hanging outside each tent. This was even more outrageous. They had walked on the dirt road for a day without sending out yesterday morning. , At this time, this kind of glossy black and shiny long leather boots was sent out. This kind of standard leather boots is very sophisticated and strong, and is more suitable for walking on this kind of muddy mountain road.

  Although the armor and weapons have not yet been distributed, these new soldiers have already felt what is different from the regular army. These ordinary benefits are simply too good.

  Before distributing the weapons, Suldak and Ned Mosby conducted a survey among the various squadrons, and organized all the new troops who were good at archery into a single squadron.

   On the night of the third day, Quartermaster Louis Fitch and Suldak calculated the military expenses of these supplies.

Because Suldak has already brought the standard weapons of the heavy armored infantry regiment. A squadron of sixty people is divided into shield fighters and spear fighters. There are thirty knight long swords and thirty iris shields. Slightly lighter than the tower shield, this leather shield is named after the blue iris flower printed on its surface.

In addition, there are 30 Paglio spears. The blades of these spears purchased by Suldak are all added with lapis lazuli to improve sharpness. None of the spear handles are made of iron and wood. Engraved with spiral patterns, people can tell at a glance that it was produced by 'Dwarf Master', the most famous weapon shop for making spears in Bena City.

Quartermaster Louis Fitch is indeed an old quartermaster. He didn't need Suldak to quote the price of these items, so he directly added 20% to the original price of these items and converted the payment into magic crystals. The stone was returned to Suldak.

While calculating silently, the quartermaster chattered endlessly: "The military department asked you to form a heavy armored infantry regiment. It seems that you are right. Along the way, you equipped these resistance forces with almost all top-level infantry. Equipment, the four-leaf clover water bladder from the Auchinleck leather workshop, only Benner knows how elegant this thing is."

   "This is the copper lunch box from Cod County Copper Ware Shop. Who told you that the copper lunch box made by his family is the most durable?"

   "Digler from the Wood Blacksmith Shop was used by you as a skinning knife. Why don't you replace the knight's long sword they distribute with blue anger?"

  Suldak could only put a smile on his face, and whispered: "You still have a pair of leather boots and no comments..."

   "Those boots are military standard boots. What can I comment on?" Quartermaster Louis Fitch rolled his eyes and said.

  …

   I don’t know if it’s because the new army can eat oatmeal and oatmeal with luncheon meat every day, or because they distributed a whole new set of armaments, which made other resistance troops around them extremely envious.

  You need to know... Which of the items used by these new troops in the past was not picked up from the corpse?

  So something happened along the way, so that a trend was formed.

There will always be some resistance camps along the way, so whenever the team passes by these camps, there will always be a small group of resistance fighters gathered on the forest path, quietly joining the heavy armored infantry regiment of Suldak Come here.

   Every night when camping, Suldak will find that the team is growing, and Suldak needs to prepare new armaments for these new recruits.

Fortunately, when he purchased in Bena City, each item was customized according to 20,000 copies. For these shops, Suldak was also the first big order this spring. Clear the inventory.

Samira and Siya have to register the new recruits every day. The heavy armored infantry regiment has been walking for nearly a week, and the team seems to have some regular army appearance. At least every time these recruits act, they form As a unit, everyone together.

   Moreover, the number of Suldak's heavy armored infantry regiment quickly doubled from 3,000 to more than 6,700.

  Now the heavy armored infantry regiment of Suldak has been divided into five regiments, of which the first four regiments are currently fully staffed.

  The fifth branch is the reserve team, and the new army that joins one after another must enter the fifth battle group.

  …

  On the eighth day after leaving Canyon Town, the heavy armored infantry regiment was still walking through the rain forest and did not step into the territory of Bansko Town.

  Mage Harper, the magician group walking in front of the team, found Suldak on purpose, and said to him solemnly:

   "The magician who was scouting in front today has seen the black magician on the opposite side scouting over this jungle, but the other party ran away immediately when they saw us."

  Suldak immediately pulled out the map and confirmed that the current position of the infantry regiment was at least a hundred miles away from the border of the territory of Bansko Town.

"I didn't expect them to prepare for the Eastern Expedition so soon. I thought they would be held back by the resistance fighters scattered in the mountains." Suldak said with a frown. He planned to rescue the resistance soldiers in the mountains. Come out and become the backbone of the infantry regiment, that is the veteran who crawled out of the death pit.

  The Lord Army of the Third Legion can only start the Eastern Expedition if they are completely cleaned up.

   "Tomorrow, I will ask the magicians to increase the scope of investigation to see if they can find the main force of the Third Legion." Archmage Harper said.

   "I will also prepare for battle here. It is better to fight in the outskirts than they are huddled in the town. When the time comes, I will rebuild the town..."

  Suldak said confidently.

  That night, Suldak took out 1,500 pieces of infantry heavy armor to equip the first heavy infantry regiment.

  However, it takes a lot of physical strength for shield warriors to wear this kind of full-coverage armor. Generally speaking, spear warriors wear half-body armor without leg guards and arm guards.

The entire camp was completely erupting, and quartermaster Louis Fitch covered his eyes and stood outside the camp with a look of pain, "I should have guessed...you will buy this This kind of alloy full-cover armor mixed with black iron, you probably have completely revitalized the 'Gutqi' blacksmith shop this time, I believe their manager will not be able to make this kind of extremely low-cost full-cover armor in the future."

  Suldak stood next to Louis Fitch, the quartermaster, and said, "It's actually okay, I ordered 10,000 sets from the store..."
