Durin's Diary

Chapter 635 Hometown
When Du Lin got off the train, he sighed as he looked at the small, shabby station in the middle of nowhere.

The soldiers were getting off the bus, and the older boys who followed Du Lin were looking at everything here curiously.

Rovsky walked over quickly and said, "Principal, you are finally here."

"Why? Is there a problem that neither you nor the liberal arts and science students can solve?" Du Lin took off his gloves and signaled the freshmen to follow the team.

"Many nobles want to introduce their daughters to us." Rovsky muttered beside Dulin.

"I know Wenli. He has a girl in Zhuangzi who he loves. What about you? Don't you have anyone you like?" Du Lin looked at the big man with a smile.

"Don't make fun of me. We can't stand with them." Rovsky said embarrassedly.

"It seems you understand quite well and still remember the suffering your parents went through when they were framed." Du Lin nodded. "By the way, what about the arts and sciences?"

"The commanders at the front are taking a literacy class. Everyone nearby who can make it has come." Rovsky said, then turned to look at the lieutenant company following the soldiers. "Have the second-term freshmen arrived too?"

"Yes, it's easy to recruit new chapters, but there aren't many excellent commanders like you. I can only recruit more students, hoping that they can learn more. This time, I want them to come up and see blood."

To be honest, the first batch of students was carefully selected by Du Lin, but only a few dozen of them have graduated. However, there are at least fifty new regiments this year alone, and the shortage of lieutenants and majors is extremely serious.

Du Lin had no choice but to relax a little. This time, he selected a number of children aged thirteen or fourteen from the military orphans in the south of Sidney.

This time Du Lin brought them here just to make these young men bleed.

When he arrived at the position, Du Lin went to check the progress of the literacy class for a while and found that some grassroots commanders of various countries could not even understand the military intelligence and needed their adjutants to read it through.

It's really just bullying the honest green-skinned people.

If it were Dulin's military academy, such a commander would either have to go through literacy classes and learn to read and write, or he would only be a regimental commander in his life.

Du Lin's arrival surprised everyone. Old Alessandro, who was listening to the class and killing time in the back row, greeted Du Lin warmly.

Du Lin specially brought Reed with him today. Perhaps because this girl has been close to Du Lin recently, her psychic level has increased by three levels. Now her psychic power is strong enough to distort the flesh of living things.

Of course, this creature cannot be too strong, otherwise someone like Du Lin would have no way to deal with it, but twisting the alien's head is easy.

Reed's appearance made Duke Alessandro stunned for a moment, then he smiled and patted Reed's head: "This is a battlefield, listen to Du Lin, don't run around, okay?"

The little girl nodded - Du Lin didn't want to bring her here at first, but the girl kept pestering him and Du Lin really couldn't do anything about her.

As for the half-grown children brought by Dulin, the Sidney military was embarrassed because these children looked at them with naked hatred.

But this is what you deserve. Now all the military orphans who can escape in the south of Sidney have fled to Dulin's rule, and the adults among the military orphans have also been martyred as much as possible. It has become normal for the whole family to flee.

As for the Sulem Forest Homeland Security Bureau, many young people also fled to the control area of ​​​​Dullin.

It is precisely because of this that Du Lin dared to recruit so many young people - after all, these children all have a foundation.

However, Dulin did not come here today to take care of the children. He asked Willy to assign tasks to the younger ones. As for the older ones, Dulin asked Rovsky to be responsible.

Then, in perfect sync, the two seniors assigned the second-term students to dig... not trenches, but the second trench line in this area was now fully connected. Willy and Rovsky left it to the young men to figure out how to establish new machine gun and mortar positions—to put it bluntly, it was to give these young men, who were only a few years younger than them, a way to vent their energy.

Willy had already chosen the positions long ago. He just wanted to test these younger generations. But that's also good, as it gives these young people a chance to use their hands and brains.

It can also be considered as an in-class assignment.

Du Lin simply arranged it this way.

………………

Rota stood behind the children, who had reserve lieutenant epaulettes on their shoulders, and watched them mark the heights and firing ranges on the map with pencils.

The more he looked, the more he felt that compared to these young children, the first-line commanders of Savoy... No, not only Savoy, but even the Northern Kingdom, known as the best army on the continent, and the Sidney Army, known for its strong army, were not as good as them - most of these middle-aged men over 40 couldn't even recognize all the words. They could understand the letters when they were written individually, but they had dyslexia when they were put into words.

So Lieutenant Colonel Willy held a literacy class to teach them how to read military intelligence reports in order to avoid accidents. Yesterday, Farol's troops made a fool of themselves. A mid-level officer wrote a military intelligence order incorrectly. The front-line commander who received the order did not think about it and chose to retreat according to the order.

But in fact he was ordered to stay where he was.

Lieutenant Colonel Willy had to pick out some important words to teach these rough guys, and repeatedly warned them that if they had any questions about the orders, they could ask the messenger to run a trip, and not to act recklessly - the officers who wrote the wrong orders and the front-line commanders were whipped twenty times, and the military judge of Farol did it himself. The whips were so sharp that they bit into the flesh. If it weren't for the pleading of several dukes headed by Duke Alessandro,

Maybe everyone will become enemies in the future, but now, everyone has the same enemy - and the Farol people are also men. Their companies usually fight to the last squad and then use flares to call for saturation artillery bombardment.

But these kids were different. They could communicate easily, mark locations on maps, draw firing lines, and identify crossfire points.

They don't even have to think when they spell words.

As for confirming the mortar positions, these half-grown children are even more amazing. They will choose positions that are difficult for the attackers to hit directly, such as positions behind machine gun positions that are higher than the ground.

They even calculated the artillery coordinates and confirmed how many areas between two mortar positions could be covered by crossfire - these were tasks that only artillery commanders would do in the Savoy army, but here a thirteen-year-old child could arrange them clearly.

When these children went to find Lieutenant Colonel Willy with the map, Rota wiped his nose - Lord Durin seemed to be the best believer of the God of Wisdom, because he truly implemented the creed of the God of Wisdom - knowledge is a free treasure that everyone deserves to enjoy.

It’s a pity that he is the most beloved child of the Twin Mother Goddesses, the messenger of the God of Art, Beauty and Love, but not the saint of the God of Wisdom.

Rota followed the children into the command post and saw the map on Lieutenant Colonel Willy's desk. The coordinates marked on it were not much different from the coordinates the children had discussed.

After the children received their rewards and began to practice, Rota came to Lieutenant Colonel Willy and said, "Your military academy kids are really amazing. The coordinates they drew are very similar to the ones you drew."

"Because that's how they're taught in the military academy. They're considered the best of the second-term students, otherwise they wouldn't be brought to the battlefield." Lieutenant Colonel Willy said as he looked at Rota. "Lieutenant Colonel Rota, do you have any other brilliant ideas?"

"Well, you know, I never think about this. This is not something I, as a staff officer, should consider."

Lieutenant Colonel Willy smiled.

Lotta felt as if the clever man was making fun of him.
