Durin's Diary

Chapter 634 Moving forward
"This is a living slander."

Rovsky was very angry about some people saying that they were followers of the Red God of War - he said that he was a believer in the original creator, and anyone who believed in a foreign god like the Red God of War was an idiot.

"Idiot... wait a minute, this word is from Changtang language, right? What does it mean?" Luo Ta has been studying some Changtang books recently and has a certain grasp of Changtang proverbs, but he still finds it difficult to understand Changtang's daily language.

He still couldn't figure out how the people of Changtang understood their words as insults or compliments.

"It's pretty much the same as 'idiot,' just a little more dirty." And Rovsky explained, "Principal Du Lin would occasionally use the long Tang dialect when calling someone stupid. Over time, we started using it too."

At this point, Rovsky looked at Rota's new uniform and said, "Lieutenant Colonel."

"That's all thanks to you." Rota said, learning and applying it immediately.

Rovsky smiled and patted his arm. "By the way, I heard that your regimental commander Sharon is planning to invite Lieutenant Colonel Willy, right?"

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel Willy and you are so outstanding that Commander Sharon decided to make an exception and accept you. Normally, new recruits have to live for at least a month before their strength is considered sufficient to meet the admission standards." At this point, Rota noticed Lieutenant Colonel Willy walking around the battlefield. "Lieutenant Colonel Willy always likes to read when he's free. Does he really like reading?"

"Of course, his favorite books at school are The Doctor and the Detective, and One Hundred Years of Solitude, written by Principal Du Lin."

Speaking of this, Rota nodded in understanding. "The books written by Lord Du Lin are indeed very good. My two sisters love them very much. If they hadn't married early, they might have insisted on marrying Lord Du Lin."

"I've heard about this too. It is said that many young girls are vying to marry our principal, without even considering their advantages. Our principal is very picky, okay?" Rovsky muttered as he took out his copper cigarette case.

"Do all you students have copper cigarette cases? I've only heard of gold and silver cigarette cases." Rota took the cigarette and was very envious of the cigarette case in his new friend's hand.

"Yes, this is a copper cigarette case unique to military cadets. Every student recognized by Principal Dulin has one," Rovsky replied, then pointed at Willy. "Willi doesn't smoke, so he has a candy box. It's a silver item unique to the chief."

"Amazing! I heard that only friends recognized by Lord Durin will receive silver cigarette cases, and only elders he considers reliable will receive gold cigarette cases."

"Yes, so if you see a cigarette box like this, you must speak nicely. Speaking of which, you are quite knowledgeable, right?"

"Nonsense, I don't know Lord Du Lin. If you do something evil, you might die without knowing how."

The two young men sitting on the sandbags were smoking and muttering to each other until they noticed that Willy had walked up to them at some point.

The little cutie looked them over and said, "If you have nothing to do, go to the front line and dig a few bags of sand for everyone."

Lotta turned around and saw that his new friend Rovsky had started to roll up his sleeves, so he started to roll up his sleeves too.

………………

After spending most of the day digging sandbags and filling them with soil, when Rota returned to his small tent, he felt like he was about to fall apart.

After reporting today's events to his recorder, who compiled them into a booklet and sent it to His Highness Zaigu, Rota soaked his feet in hot water.

He was lucky today. Until Rota wiped his feet clean, there was no news of the greenskins' night attack. Last time during the night attack, Rota didn't wipe his feet dry, and as a result, after fighting all night, he got seven frostbite on his feet.

Because it was just a minor injury and Rota was young, he insisted that it did not require surgical treatment.

Now, these chilblains hurt Luota in a way that was different from the pain, but because of her stubbornness, Luota couldn't complain. She could only learn from her mistakes.

Well, this time the Chang Tang proverb was definitely used correctly.

After confirming that the contents of the booklet were correct, Rota asked the recorder to deliver the booklet - this recorder was His Highness Zaigu's man. Although Rota was not good at leading troops in battle, he knew some little tricks. If he didn't need a recorder at this time, would he have to let this half-injured soldier crawl around on the ground with his chilblained feet?

………………

Willy returned to his room and began writing in his diary.

He found the young man Lotta Vanta very interesting.

First of all, this young man is an opportunist. He is smooth in his dealings, but he cannot be said to be cunning - you ask him to do something, and he really does it. He was on the front line in two night battles. Although he vomited all over the floor after being stimulated by the steamed brains the second time, as a combatant who came from a staff background, he was able to pull the trigger all night instead of holding his head and screaming all night like those mentally broken young men in the battle reports. This is already very outstanding.

Moreover, although he was not good at fighting - this could be seen from the fact that he fired more than 600 bullets in two nights, but in the end the military judge only gave him 20 kills and wounds, which showed that he was unreliable in combat.

However, this young man's analysis and grasp of things are really good. It is said that the Wanta family has always been a family of consultants. It can only be said that Luo Ta is also a professional counterpart, and the contents of his analysis are almost correct.

Now the two sides are still comrades-in-arms, and Willy still admires this young man very much, even though this young man is many years older than him.

But unfortunately, he is a noble.

Rovsky was born with good athletic ability and a simple mind. He naively thought that all the nobles here were good people - yes, that's right, the nobles here were good people, and they were willing to fight for the land behind them.

But they are aristocrats after all, and they are the oppressors we want to overthrow.

The principal said that our future is a future of struggle. If we want to usher in peace and happiness, we must fight against all injustices. This is true for me as an orphan in the army, and for Rovsky who failed in the political struggle. Everyone has his own hardships to face and fight.

There is too much injustice in this world. The nobles and tycoons are all owners and supporters of vested interests. Their existence is the biggest enemy of fairness and justice. No one will willingly give up power and interests.

Therefore, life never stops and struggle never ends.

Having written this, Willy closed the diary and put it back into his small space using a spell.

Willy is not a wizard, but a being called a psychic by the principal.

Willy didn't understand what a psychic was.

But the principal said so.

A psyker is one who has powers, and he believes that this is a power greater than the Path and the Sequence.

And the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
