German Eagle: Steel and Magic

Chapter 39 Memorial for Fenner
"Hurry up, run! If you are on the battlefield, you will only hinder your comrades!"

On the training ground of the Parisino Non-commissioned Officer Academy, the freshmen are sweating wildly in this midsummer season, and they are really full of vitality.

In fact, they are exhausted like dogs.Not only do they have to carry a marching bag and a rifle, but they also hear loud reprimands from the instructors. You must know that the students of the 74th class have only been enrolled for less than half a year.

Because the war on the front line is relatively tight, all cultural courses in the military academy and non-commissioned officer school of the German Empire have been compressed or cancelled. Holidays?Soldiers don't need vacations!
Now the most lively place in Germany is not Heidelberg, but the training ground and shooting range of the military school.

The military factories of the German Empire were fully fired, with planes, tanks, cannons, guns, ammunition, and newly delivered recruit eggs. In just two months, the German Empire quickly formed more than 100 reserve divisions, and the troops were fully expanded. double.

"I can't live through this day. Is the military academy just like this?"

"I want to go home, I want my mother and the rhubarb at home..."

"I'll tell you a cold joke. After the run, there will be shooting training, and then there will be long-distance marching training."

"If my mother gave birth to me a year earlier, wouldn't I have to suffer this crime?"

"I want to tell everyone a good news. After Christmas is over, we will enter the internship period. At that time, everyone will eat Frank brand peanuts. Don't practice. I will suffer by myself."

……

At this time, there were two lazy students, both from the 74th class, but the two of them were resting under the tree at the school gate, eating bacon cakes, joking and chatting at the same time, very happy.

A young figure caught the attention of one of them. He pointed to the little guy in the dark green military uniform and said, "Hey, look."

The cadet next to him put down the bacon patties, and was also surprised to see the person coming. He was short in stature but wearing a military uniform, and he had come to the Parisino Non-commissioned Officer Academy.

There's only one person, Carl.

After all, their girls came here to see Carl off, and many of them secretly wiped their tears at night, not knowing where they lost.

At this time, under extremely unfavorable circumstances, a little hero who almost wiped out half of the Frankish Air Mage Squadron by himself, with bandages on his arms, a command knife on his waist, and a warrant officer medal on his shoulder, limped. Turned over.

At this time, his record was already very dazzling. At least in the last war with the Franks, no one could achieve such a record by himself.

But this is all known by insiders. This kind of thing should not be publicized. It will be accused by other countries of forcing minors to join the army. If a country sends young soldiers to the battlefield, this will increase diplomatic pressure in the future.

Therefore, the military committee of the Ministry of National Defense can only deal with it in a low-key manner. Except for some necessary units and troops, not many people know about Karl's existence.

The deeds need to be hidden, but there must be rewards for deeds afterwards. Karl was awarded the rank of warrant officer and at the same time received the Young Eagle command knife.

This is a reward for those who have made great contributions on the front line. It is a short knife made of brass with an eagle-shaped gauntlet, which is very handsome overall.

All the students were shocked by Karl's appearance.

In this school, Karl's achievements are still disclosed. Anyway, they have to stay in the school for a year of training, and then go to fight, and they are not afraid of leaking.

As a student of the 73rd class, Karl is one of the few intact survivors. If it is narrowed down to the 73rd class of aviation mages training class, then he is the only survivor.Seriously injured but hanging on his breath, he was treated in a field hospital on the front line, and now he is back alive

Others were not so lucky, half of the total number was killed in battle, and half of the remaining people were seriously injured. Simply put, on the first day of the war, they had already lost three quarters before they even reached the front line.

No one thought that this train would become the prey of the Franks. For this uncontrollable incident, Parisino Academy can only try to explain it. After all, this result will cause many negative effects. Fortunately, Carl's record is not Let the mentality of the new students be too low.

"Carl, you should go and have a rest when you come back."

Major Hiber brought people to greet Karl as soon as he heard the news, but seeing his bandages all over his body and relatively low mood, he decided to let Karl go back to his single dormitory to rest.

If there is no accident, Karl's single dormitory will always be Karl's alone in the future.

"Director Hiber, long time no see." Karl smiled, but only twitched the corners of his mouth politely.

Under the eyes of everyone, Carl came to the lounge of the Academic Affairs Office. Fama brought him a cup of tea. Carl smiled as normal as possible to reassure her that she was fine.

Karl's injury is indeed almost healed. Although the time in this world is obviously shorter than that in the previous life, the existence of magic has also made many miracles here.

Putting it in the previous life, it was said that he would be hospitalized for more than three months, but now he can come back early.

I briefly talked about the past with some acquaintances, and then I talked about my experience in the field hospital, and then left.

Carl returned to his familiar dormitory, sorted out his personal belongings, and then went to the church alone to do prayer work.

The content of the prayer was still cursing, from cursing secretly in his heart to cursing loudly when he stood up, Karl was venting his heart out.

It was as if all the bad luck was a coincidence, and it was all inextricably linked to this boring, arrogant god, but it didn't help.

The gods will not suddenly appear to resurrect the dead, and they will not pay attention to Karl at all, and that guy may not even have time to listen to Karl's appeal.

Carl limped away from the church, and then she saw Fenner, and behind him were almost all the students of the 74th Magister Training Class.

They all stood silently outside the church, and no one bothered Karl, because they all knew what this senior had experienced on the front line, and the bandages on Karl's body hadn't been removed yet.

But fortunately, they didn't come in, otherwise it wouldn't be easy to explain the abuse.

"Senior Karl..."

Fenner obviously had a lot to say, and she wanted to ask how Carl was doing, whether he had gotten over the grief of the departure of his comrades, and whether she could let herself comfort Karl's sadness.

But she didn't know what to say. Fenner saw the commanding knife of the young eagle on Carl's waist, and she also saw Karl's rank of warrant officer and the commanding knife of the young eagle on his waist.

Fenner, who is usually very evasive and willing to get close to Karl, is a little at a loss now.

Now Karl is already a real soldier, and a very good soldier at that.

"I'll give this to you. Remember, if you go to the battlefield in the future, you must stay calm and try your best to survive."

Carl took out an armband from his pocket. It was the school emblem of the Parisino Military Academy. There was a 73 on it, and there were faint bloodstains.

This is the military uniform that Karl was wearing when he was unconscious. After arriving at the field hospital, the nurse cut it out and left it beside the unconscious Karl's bed.

"Senior Karl..."

Fenner wanted to give Carl a hug, but Carl had already walked past her.

The juniors spontaneously made way for him, saluted together, and watched him leave.
