The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Chapter 218: Rift 4

After three days, Basit finally accepted Chechen's condition and formally joined the mercenary group as the deputy commander. Before that, Tepesh had already incorporated his people into the mercenary group as ordered by Prince Yanush.

After collecting these two groups of people, the mercenary group already has a scale of nearly a thousand. As long as you receive the weapons and equipment promised by Prince Yanush and get a little training, you can become a strong team.

But before that, Cheerchen had reformed the mercenary group again. In this reform, Cheorchen divided the mercenary regiment into two infantry squadrons, one cavalry company, and one artillery company. The infantry squadron consisted of 408 people, including 216 pikemen and 192 musketeers. For the first time, the number of pikemen in the mercenary regiment exceeded the number of musketeers. Some old men in the mercenary regiment felt uncomfortable because they were used to fighting with muskets. But Cheerchen came to the conclusion from the notes and combat experience left by Christina: Pikemen's lethality and combat efficiency are higher than that of Musketeers.

The captain of the first squadron is the deputy commander Basit, and his officers are Father Spasokukotsky and Yelisei; the captain of the second squadron is the deputy commander Pidro, officer. Served by Tepes and Fedot.

The cavalry company and artillery company only exist in the organization for the time being due to the lack of equipment and horses. Of course, Cheer Chen had already decided on the candidate for the officer, and that was Fatima and herself.

The current situation is that the cavalry company is okay, at least the mercenary regiment has a small multi-purpose cavalry unit and has been led by Fatima; while the artillery company does not even have a gun. The mercenary group used to have a three-pounder gun, but Chechen left that gun to Miss Orina to guard Polotsk. Now that the mercenary regiment and Anjay are enemies, the three-pounder gun is of course impossible to return.

But even with all kinds of difficulties, everyone still mustered their energy to prepare for a big fight. The only unhappy person is Pedro. Because he overheard that all the teams under Prince Yanush, including Victor, must be expanded, and the intensity is not less than that of his own mercenary group. The deputy commander was a little psychologically unbalanced. But this little thought Pidro can only think about it in his own mind.

And Cheerchen did not mention the matter of Father Spaso Kukecki again. Cheerchen, who had never expected that his uncle would do anything to the priest, still naively thought that Father Spasokuktsky was still on his way to Viri.

The mountains from Werner to Viri were long and high, and the road was not peaceful. Even on horseback, the priest will not be able to return within ten and a half months.

After four more days, it was already the end of July. On this day, a large group of people came to the station of the mercenary regiment. There were seven or eighty men in this team, and they also brought supplies for twelve carriages and three three-pounder guns.

Such a big movement made everyone in the mercenary group reach the gate of the camp. Yelishei and a group of officers stood at the forefront surrounded by Cheerchen.

"Which of you is the leader of Chechen."

A knight in a red uniform got off the horse and asked Cheer Chen and others.

"I am."

Cheerchen took a step forward and said to the knight. At the same time, Cheerchen also looked at him carefully.

"My name is Algierdas, you can call my rank second lieutenant. I am an aristocrat who works for Prince Yanush. The Prince sent me to send you supplies and join your mercenary group for the coming Prepare for the war. Look, these cavalrymen will obey your command from the captain in the future." The knight named Al Gildas said.

"On behalf of the mercenary group, I welcome you, Lieutenant Al Gildas Cavalry." Chechen said to Al Gildas.

Cheerchen had a good impression of Al Gildas. In fact, Algierdas does have a very pleasing look. His face is square, and his complexion has a reassuring sense of vicissitudes. Al Gildas' hair and beard are golden yellow, and they are densely shining with golden light in the sun.

After that, Cheerchen asked other members of the mercenary group to help pull the materials and artillery on the flatbed into the camp, and arranged for the cavalry brought by Al Gildas to arrange accommodation, and the horses also needed to be arranged, all of a sudden. With seven or eighty horses, the stables of the mercenary group appeared small. Cheer Chen brought the officers of the mercenary group into the hall with Al Gildas, and he wanted to introduce the other officers to Al Gildas.

"Second Lieutenant Algierdas, these two are the deputy heads of our mercenary regiment Pidro and Bachter." Chechen introduced Algierdas.

Before coming, Algildas had some knowledge of the mercenary group. He knew that the deputy commander of the mercenary group, Piedro, was the uncle of the group leader, so he and Piedro shook hands intimately. But just as Bashit raised his hand to shake Algierdas, Algierdas put his hand back.

Such an impolite behavior made Bashit's complexion sink, and the complexion of other officers of the mercenary regiment was also not good.

"Head Chechen, you can introduce me to such a noble-born officer in the mercenary group." Algildas, who withdrew his hand, turned a blind eye to the glaring eyes at her~lightnovelpub.net~ but Dai He returned to the cavalry glove and said to Cheerchen.

Cheerchen was also very uncomfortable with Algildas's behavior, and the good impression that had been given to Cheerchen by Algildas's outstanding appearance disappeared. But he wanted to remind Al Gildas to pay attention to unity.

"Second Lieutenant Algildas..."

But Algildas seemed to know what Cheerchen was going to say. He waved his hand and said, "Commander Chechen, your mercenary group is good for everything. I admire the achievements you made for the prince. But one thing is that you are too insightful in choosing officers, even serfs and serfs. Heretics can have a foothold in your mercenary group."

These words smashed both Bachit and Fatima. Cheerchen's face suddenly became cold: "Ensign Algierdas, the prince did not send you to let you humiliate my officer. "

"Of course not, this is just my advice to you, Chief Chechen. You are also a person with status now, and you should get in touch with people who have the same status as you, instead of..."

Algierdas was interrupted by Cheechen before he finished speaking: "Mr. Lieutenant, I never thought that the prince gave me the status of aristocracy. If it affects my relationship with these friends, I will do nothing. Don't hesitate to return this identity to the prince."

Cheerchen's words aroused applause from Fedot and others, and even Bashit gave Cheerchen a grateful look.

"Well then, your lord. Since you can't listen to my advice, I can't help it. But please allow me to go back and have dinner with my subordinates." Algildas said.

He didn't even want to sit with everyone at the dinner party.

"Please, Lieutenant Al Gildas." Chechen said. He has no good feelings about this Algierdas now.
