Claude told the story of his conflicts with the veterans very honestly. The only thing he didn't tell the truth was how he broke both hands and wrists of the round-faced corporal named Enge. Claude's explanation was that he was taking good care of himself.
He stood in line, and when it was about to be his turn to eat, Corporal Engel rushed over and grabbed his chest collar with both hands. He resisted spontaneously and instinctively, not wanting to be pulled out of the queue.
But at that time, he was holding the lunch box in his right hand, and he only had one left hand to open Corporal Engel's hands. As a result, the three hands were intertwined. And he did not have the strength of Corporal Engel, so he was pulled out of the lunch queue.
At this time, because he was dragged out by Corporal Enge, he staggered, lost his balance, and fell to the ground in front of him. He did not expect that this action would cause Corporal Enge's hands and wrists to be broken. He was also shocked at the time.
Stayed...
At this time, Sergeant Jem, who was the first to provoke, suddenly rushed over, grabbed his head and beat him, saying that he was the culprit who caused Corporal Enge's injury. Because of the other party's indiscriminate accusations and indifference to right and wrong,
Yu You started beating people, and he received a few hard blows, so he got mad and threw his lunch box and got into a fight with Sergeant Jim.
After he knocked Sergeant Jem to the ground, several soldiers who were friends with them came over and saw him, and rushed up to beat him again. But at that time, he was beaten by them until he was completely stunned, and he could only rely on instinct and subconsciousness.
Fighting back, I have really forgotten what I did before I finally passed out, and I can't remember anything...
Sitting in front of the bed was the military judge who came to investigate the fight in the cafeteria, Lieutenant Officer Brickland Hesdri. He kept a sullen face and silently recorded the fight described by Claude in a notebook.
As the incident unfolded, there were no questions or reminders, it was just written there silently.
After Claude felt that he had nothing more to say, he closed the notebook, looked at Claude and asked coldly: "Your story is generally not very different from what the soldiers who watched the entire incident said.
Many deviations. As the number one student in physical education who graduated from a junior high school, your fighting skills and skills are indeed outstanding, but don’t you think it’s too cruel to be so cruel to your comrades? "
Claude smiled bitterly, knowing that he would be questioned for taking too heavy a shot: "I just acted in self-defense instinctively, Billik..."
"Call me Lieutenant Sdri." The military judge interrupted Claude.
This world is also very particular about addressing people. Generally speaking, they are called by their first name, with the suffix of Mr. Madam, Madam, Miss, or job title to show a close relationship or a closer relationship. However, using a surname to commensurate with each other brings distance.
And a sense of alienation, which means the relationship is not close or familiar, or the attitude is business-like.
Just like Claude calls the military judge Lieutenant Brickland, putting his name in front of the military rank means that they are comrades-in-arms. And the military judge asks Claude to call him by his last name, Lieutenant Sdri, which means that he
In official matters, Claude is not regarded as his comrade-in-arms, but as a subject of investigation.
"Okay, Lieutenant Sdri, I regret that I had a conflict with the veterans on the first day I entered the military camp and was injured in the fight. But this was not my intention. If you have read my file, then you
You should know that I am also an excellent hunter. I have killed large pythons, giant crocodiles, wolves, mountain leopards, wild boars and many other prey.
I am not saying this to show off, but I want to explain that whether my attacks are cruel or vicious is not something I can control. These are all instinctive reactions caused by the experience I have gained in the hunting process. You should be able to understand,
When facing a ferocious beast, your action determines your life or death. So when being attacked by the opponent, my instinctive counterattack is to subdue the opponent as quickly as possible to protect myself from harm. As for whether the opponent will be injured, to be honest
I was so blinded at that time that I never thought about it..."
The military judge was silent for a while and then said: "Maybe you can consider giving in. They are both veterans and sergeants. As new recruits, you should respect them and obey their wishes..."
"I don't understand, Lieutenant Sdri." Claude retorted: "When I reported for duty, Lieutenant Gilp who received me said to me, Claude, from today on, you are a soldier of the Blue Feather Legion. And
Corporal Gro, who sent me to the camping tent, also told me that I could use my temporary soldier ID card to eat and bathe in the canteen and bathhouse. But when I was waiting in line for food, the veterans told me that I was not a member of the Blue Feathers.
Soldiers cannot eat there. Could it be said that these veterans decide whether to be soldiers of the Blue Feather Corps? Does Second Lieutenant Gilp have any say?"
The military judge was a little embarrassed by Claude's question. Of course, he would not admit that Second Lieutenant Gilp had nothing to say. From a certain point of view, he thought Claude was a thorn in the side, even if Claude was not involved in the whole fight.
He didn't make any big mistakes. But he had a conflict with the veteran on the first day after entering the camp. Although both parties entered the treatment center, Claude was one to six. Even though his fighting ability was extraordinary, in the eyes of the military judge, he was still
It became an unstable factor in the military camp.
"I don't mean that. I just think you can make a slight concession and obey the wishes of the veterans, so that you can avoid conflicts." The military judge thought for a while and then said.
"As a soldier of the Blue Feather Legion, why should I give in?" Claude asked: "On the first day I joined the army, I was in a hurry to report, so I didn't eat lunch and was very hungry. After arriving at the cafeteria,
The more than two hundred soldiers in front had no objection to my arrival. They thought that I was one of them. But when I was about to queue up for lunch, these veterans came in through the gate and asked me to leave.
Of course I refused such an unreasonable request. Why did they say that I was not a soldier of the Blue Feather Legion? I was not. I refuted them a few words, and they started beating me. Even though I am injured and lying in the treatment center now,
I don’t think I did anything wrong, and I don’t regret the so-called serious consequences I caused. I think the injuries of those veterans were their own fault..."
After saying a few words, the military judge stood up without saying a word, put the notebook back in his briefcase, picked up the briefcase and walked to the door. But when he opened the door, Claude called
He stopped him: "Lieutenant Sdri, I have a question, why do those veterans target us recruits who come to participate in non-commissioned officer training? Some of my comrades who camped with me in the tents came a few days early, so they only had enough time to eat every day.
When the meal time is approaching in the canteen, they go to get some leftovers to fill their stomachs. If they go there early, they will be kicked out by the veterans..."
The military judge stood at the door without saying a word. After a while, he turned around and opened the door and left.
The middle-aged pharmacist who was playing with the medicine tube turned around with a smile: "I can answer this question for you, kid."
"You know?"
"Of course," the middle-aged pharmacist nodded: "Do you know how many people there are in our Blue Feather Army now?"
"More than thirty thousand." Claude replied: "The soldiers standing guard at the foot of the mountain told me that this is not the main camp of the Blue Feather Army. The main camp is to the west of the city of Conigada, where there are three
More than ten thousand people.”
Unexpectedly, Claude, who had only been in the camp for a day, knew this answer. The middle-aged pharmacist was stunned for a moment: "You are right, but do you know that our Blue Feather Legion will expand its recruitment by the end of the year?"
I really don’t know this, Claude shook his head honestly.
The middle-aged pharmacist said proudly: "This time our Blue Feather Legion is expanding its recruitment. To reach full strength, we need to add more than 20,000 recruits. In other words, there will be more than 2,000 sergeant major and sergeant positions that need to be promoted.
Veterans come to fill the vacancies. The Corps has already decided that sergeants will be directly promoted to sergeants and master sergeants. Then there are still about 800 vacancies that will be selected from veterans with outstanding performance such as sergeants and corporals, and the training of non-commissioned officers is for these
Conducted by veterans.
I just didn't expect that after this non-commissioned officer training plan was submitted to the Ministry of War for approval, there were countless people who came to the trust to recommend people who wanted to participate in this non-commissioned officer training. The army was also in a dilemma, because many of them were unacceptable and required by the army.
After making good friends with the big shots, after careful consideration, the legion finally decided to divide the non-commissioned officer training into two batches. One batch is the veterans selected from the legion, who will serve as sergeants after the training. The other batch is those of you who have been recommended and sent
The favored recruits who come over will become non-commissioned officers after training.
Because there are more recruits like you, the number of veterans originally planned to participate in non-commissioned officer training must be reduced by half to make room for you. Therefore, another assessment was conducted among those veterans, and half of them were eliminated. It is embarrassing for you.
Veterans are one of those eliminated, so they are very dissatisfied and take the opportunity to cause trouble for you.
The legion is not unaware of this situation, but in order to appease these eliminated veterans, it deliberately pretended not to see it, so that those veterans can vent their anger in front of you recruits who arrived early. At the same time, it also gives you recruits a chance to show off.
Don't show off your power in the military camp by relying on your family's power. In fact, everyone knew that they would not cause a big mess, but they didn't expect that you, a stupid young man, sent six veterans to the treatment center on the first day you joined the army.
When the matter gets serious, it will end badly, and the higher-ups will be anxious..."
Looking at the middle-aged pharmacist who was gloating about the background and the whole story, Claude was a little bit dumbfounded. Uncle, why are you so happy? It seems that you are very happy to see the Legion in such embarrassment and don't know how to deal with this matter.
Claude finally understood why the military judge who seemed cold but biased in his words had such an attitude towards him. If the mess fight he caused was not handled well, the recruits who were participating in the non-commissioned officer training and those who were being treated would be in trouble.
There was a confrontation between the eliminated veterans. But he had already expressed his attitude and resolutely refused to admit his mistakes. This really made the legion who was eager to find a way to step down feel very embarrassed. Who told those veterans that they couldn't win even one of the six fights?
He was hurt so badly...
At this time, the door was pushed open, and the medical soldier named Bell came in carrying a large basket. When he came to Claude's bed, he took out a large bowl of oatmeal from the basket. He looked at Claude
Looking at you with suspicious eyes, Bell said anxiously: "Man, brother, I swear I washed my hands before going to the cafeteria. Don't worry. Look, I even asked the boss of the kitchen to add an egg to your bowl of oatmeal.
Smell it and see if it smells good..."
It does smell like eggs, but Claude doesn't understand why the boss in the kitchen is so kind enough to add an egg in it...
"To be honest, man." Bell mysteriously approached Claude's ear and whispered: "Actually, you injured Jim and the others. Many people in the military camp were happy, including the boss in the kitchen. Because they have all suffered from this.
A few veterans bullied us just a year or two before we entered the camp. They kept pretending to be seniors in front of us, yelling at us to do this and that for them, and beating us if we didn't get what we wanted. So many people
I hate them in my heart.
This time you sent them to the treatment center, and many people were very happy. Just like the boss in the kitchen, when I told him that you had woken up and there was nothing serious, he happily added it to your porridge.
Go in and put an egg in. When Jim and the others were on patrol at night, they would often go to the kitchen and ask for supper in the name of midnight snacks. If they didn't give it, they would beat them up. So this time I saw you beat them up.
Everyone is very happy.”
Claude was not used to being so intimate with Bell, but he couldn't move his body yet. He had to be fed by Bell even to drink porridge, and he could only let Bell whisper in his ear.
