Chapter 27 New Leader

When Davos and his party returned to the Menon Barracks, the soldiers had been looking forward to it, eagerly welcoming them into the camp, and then asking about the situation.

"Clirkus and Menon have been killed by the Persians. The Persians also wanted us to surrender, but the officers refused. The war between us and the Persians is inevitable!" Antonios deliberately exaggerated the situation.

The soldiers were in an uproar.Although they had been notified by Hilos and the others before and were prepared in their hearts, they still held on to the illusion of peace.Now this last illusion was shattered.They are panicked, confused, and at a loss.

"Now, we must immediately elect a new leader to replace Menon and lead us back to Greece!" Felicius shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, Antonius's nephew Asistes, the young man whose life was saved by Davos, raised his right hand in the crowd and couldn't wait to shout: "Brothers, who foretold the fate of little Cyrus?" die?!"

"...It's Davos." Hilos and the others took the lead in responding.

"Who invented bacon sausage so we don't go hungry?!" Asistes continued to shout.

"It's Davos," the soldiers responded.

“Who created the medical camp so we no longer have to worry about injuries?!”

"Davos!" the soldiers began to answer in unison.

"Who foretold that today's meeting with the Persians was a conspiracy and tried to stop Menon and the others?!"

"Davos!!" the soldiers shouted in unison.

"Who is the favored one of Hades?! Who can protect us and return to Greece?!"

"Davos!!!" the soldiers shouted in unison.

"Who -" Asistes pointed at Davos and shouted in a hoarse voice: "is our new leader?!!"

"Davos! Davos!! Davos!!!..." The soldiers in the entire military camp shouted excitedly for a long time.

Felicius and the squadron captains were all at a loss when they suddenly faced such a scene. They all looked at Davos, while Davos looked surprised and seemed to know nothing about it, but his eyes were silent. Glancing at the dancing Martonis and Geogris in the crowd, he did not expect that Asistes would be leading the soldiers, but the effect clearly exceeded his expectations.

The soldiers' shouts became louder and louder, and the team officers had to respond. After everyone had an urgent consultation, Felicius came out. He glanced at Davos next to him with a complicated expression, and then spoke to the gathering. The soldiers shouted: "Brothers, are you sure you want to choose Davos as your new leader?!"

"Yes!!!" Under the leadership of Asistes, the soldiers shouted in unison.

"Are there any other candidates?!"

"No!!"

"We need guidance from God's Favored Ones!!"

Felicius turned around, Antonios and Capos nodded, and then Amyntas, Alexis... and other squadron leaders also nodded helplessly.

Felicius shouted solemnly: "Witnessed by the gods, after being recommended by the soldiers and agreed by the team officers, Davos will become our new leader!"

Cheers rang out.

Davos unclenched his clenched fists, his palms already wet with sweat.He breathed a sigh of relief and was extremely excited: all the hard work and efforts during this period were not in vain!He, a time traveler, an ordinary young soldier, directly passed through the ranks of squad leader, squad leader, and squadron leader, and became the leader of more than 1000 soldiers.Although he was just a mercenary, his dream was finally realized in a short period of time, and he transformed from a chess piece to a chess player.Of course, this also means that he will bear a heavy responsibility, but compared with dying as cannon fodder, no matter how great the responsibility is, there is nothing to be afraid of!
Facing excited faces, he raised his right arm high.

....................................

Compared with other military camps, Menon Barracks suffered the least losses. Due to everyone's lack of cooperation, only three team officers followed Menon to the Persian Barracks, and the soldiers quickly elected their successors.

Then the soldiers retreated, and the new leader Davos and the squadron leaders held their first meeting in the big tent.Felicius was only an adjutant attached to Menon and had no right to lead troops. When a new leader took office, his duties were naturally relieved, so he could only stay outside.

Davos looked at the thirteen squadron leaders, some of whom he was familiar with such as Antonios, Capps, etc., and many more who were less familiar... The squadron leaders also looked at the new leader who was too young. , some with expectations, some just curious, and some simply ignore it and talk to themselves...

It was not like he had never been a leader in his previous life. Davos had no timidity at all. He met their eyes with a serious expression and remained silent for a long time, causing the initial noise in the big tent to gradually become quiet.The invisible pressure this young man exuded in silence made the squadron leaders start to look at him squarely.

At this time, he said calmly: "Thank you soldiers for trusting me! Thank you for your support! I will use my actions to prove that your choice is correct!"

This young new leader is not humble at all!Alexis and the others opened their mouths slightly in surprise, while Antonios and Capps were infected by his confidence and smiled.

"Now, I have decided to let Felicius continue to serve as adjutant and assist me in managing military affairs." This proposal temporarily relieved several squadron commanders who were worried about Davos' lack of experience and chaos.

Felicius was invited in, he smiled and thanked Davos, and then sat next to Davos.

"I decided to set up a medical battalion, with Hull's as the medical officer, and he must attend important meetings!" The field hospital in the Menon barracks has long been operating independently, and now it's only officially put on the table.

Amyntas raised an objection: "As long as the doctor can cure the brothers' injuries, they don't understand what kind of military meeting they are participating in, and they have never done anything like this before!"

"Now is a special period!" Davos looked at this strong man with a strong body and a somewhat ferocious appearance, and said with emphasis: "In the next trip, we may encounter many battles, we must protect us At the same time, we also need to know how many wounded soldiers the medical battalion can treat us? Is there a shortage of labor? Is there a shortage of medical supplies?... These need to be discussed with Hull's!"

Amyntas was stunned, scratched his head, and said nothing.No one wanted to let their injured soldiers go without medical treatment, so Davers' proposal was passed easily.

"I hope Merses from the baggage camp will also attend the military meeting. Because we need to know at any time whether there is enough food? Are there enough beasts of burden?..." Davos's second proposal was once again accepted by everyone. After all, food This is everyone's biggest concern, not to mention that there are also their salaries and looted money in the baggage camp. Of course, they need to be understood and protected at all times.

After successfully passing three personnel appointments in succession, Davers stopped the proposal.

At this time, Felicius next to him touched Davos lightly and opened his mouth to him.

Davos suddenly realized from the other person's mouth: he had forgotten a key position - herald.Don't underestimate this position. He is the one who relies on him for the smooth delivery of military and government orders.If you don't make a decision now in front of everyone, it will be easy for things to go wrong later.Still lack of experience!

Davos thought for a moment and said calmly: "In addition, I appoint Asistes as herald!" Not only to repay the merit of the recommendation just now, but also Asistes has been assisting his uncle Antonio before. Si does some trivial military work and is familiar with the Menon barracks.Besides, Daves has been in contact with this young man many times. He is cheerful and full of energy, and the team officials have a good impression of him.Moreover, he is full of gratitude to Davos, and he doesn't need anyone!

Sure enough, this candidate was successfully recognized by everyone.

Antonios went out and called Asistes.

After expressing his gratitude to everyone excitedly, Asistes immediately began to perform his duties.He quickly called for Helps and Melses.

At this point, all the new senior officials of Menon Barracks have arrived.

　Although there are still many tribulations later, the protagonist has escaped from the miserable state at the beginning and has begun to step onto the big stage of history.
　　For this reason, should brothers vote to celebrate? !

　　Are there any rewards? . . . . .laugh
