Chapter 493: Mercenary Three

,!

"Drip~drip~drip~"

The loud trumpet sound resounded throughout the camp, and this sound represented the time for dinner.

Doug and Patton took the wooden lunch box and came to line up in front of the kitchen. There were already more than 30 people in front of them.

"Hey, Boss Doug!"

"Hey, Patton!"

Seeing the two people coming, people kept saying hello to them.

The mercenaries were not dispersed, but were all thrown into this labor camp next to the coal mine.

The Austrian elders don't care whether they still maintain the old order of the mercenary group, the Austrian elders don't care whether they are still listening to the boss of the mercenary group, the Austrian elders only need them to complete the assigned tasks on time and in full That's it.

When he was in Jiaowan, mercenaries, especially those with rich combat experience, were precious resources of force. After being captured, they would often be incorporated into the army that captured him. These guys are not knights, loyal or something They have nothing to do with them, whoever offers good treatment or promises to restore their freedom after being captured will hang out with whoever.

But it is not applicable here in the Northwest Gulf. The lord who captured them had no intention of taking them in at all, and just used them as tools.

At the beginning, some people wanted to make trouble, but the leader—in fact, was secretly instigated by Doug and the head of another mercenary group, Ferguson—was **** by Aldo and shot on the spot with a 12-pound cannon. The scene frightened the courage of the mercenaries, and they quickly calmed down.

They finally understood that the Ao elders really didn't care what they thought, they just regarded him as a group of tools that could move on their own, and if something went wrong, they would "throw away".

After the original fantasies were shattered by the ruthless reality, the mercenaries from Jiaowan quickly positioned themselves as Aldo's slaves, and their mentality could change so quickly, It is related to the Jiaowan culture they have been familiar with since they were young. In Jiaowan, there is a tradition of using prisoners of war as slaves.

Well, as long as you have a good attitude, you can live a pretty good life in this labor camp.

After Doug prepared his meal, he and Parton participated in a "dinner" with a bunch of people.

He first soaked the bread in his hand into the thick soup—if he didn’t do so, he would break his teeth—after he felt that it was almost done, he put it in his mouth and chewed the next piece vigorously.

Today's soup has a little meat in it, which is not bad.

"I said guys! Why didn't you see Ferguson and his people today."

he looked around at the customer, asking as he chewed his bread.

Ferguson was the head of another mercenary group, they were hired together and captured together.

"When I was still queuing just now—you and Patton hadn't come yet—I saw that the guards assembled and took away the people from their regiment."

A young guy who was only about sixteen or seventeen years old replied.

When Doug saw the young guy who answered him, he felt a pang of regret. His life had just begun, and he was going to be confessed to this ghostly place for the rest of his life.

"I saw it too."

"Yes, the guard came to look for Ferguson himself, and asked him to lead his regiment away."

Doug has been given information by many people.

What happened?

Doug was a little dazed, Ferguson and his people were taken away by Aldo?

Was it taken...to be executed?

Or... released?

If it's the former, will the next batch be my turn and my own people?

If it's the latter...why? Why?

Doug just grabbed the bread and was so dazed, he didn't even hear someone calling him next to him.

"Boss Doug! Boss Doug!"

Patton tugged at Doug's sleeve and kept shaking it.

"Ah? What's the matter?"

Doug awoke from his thoughts.

"The guards are calling us."

"what?"

Is it your turn?

When an unknown fate befell him, Doug's heart trembled.

"Everyone!"

The guard held up a loudspeaker and shouted loudly:

"Assemble in the open space outside immediately, within fifteen minutes, immediately!"

The people present, almost like a conditioned reflex, got up and ran outside, regardless of the unfinished meal.

Prisoners have been undergoing a certain degree of militarized training in the same way as in Arda's army - such as queues, internal affairs, and running exercises in the morning and evening. The original intention of doing so was only for the convenience of management.

After the assembly was over, a man in Arda's military uniform came over, walked back and forth in front of the prisoners several times, and observed them carefully.

In the end, he nodded with satisfaction, and asked with great enthusiasm: "Which one is Ribeiro Doug? Get out!"

Doug hesitated, but he knew he couldn't escape after all.

So he yelled, "Here!"

Following his usual running training, he clenched his fists on his left and right sides, raised them above his waist, trotted out of the queue, and stood still in front of the Arda soldier.

"Report! No. 2001 Ribeiro Doug is reporting to you!"

The soldier looked him over from top to bottom, making Doug feel as if he was in a livestock market, where he was a horse and the other was a horse buyer.

"Follow me! The rest of you, stand like this for an hour!"

The "buyer" seemed to have taken a fancy to his horse and pulled the rein.

The rest of the people were puzzled, but they didn't even dare to look at each other to see if some **** made a mistake, and then everyone was punished to sit and stand.

Doug followed anxiously all the way until he entered the management office of the labor camp.

"Ferguson?"

Doug was a little surprised. When he entered the door, he found that another mercenary group leader, Beluso Ferguson, was also here.

When Ferguson saw him, surprise was revealed in his eyes, and then there was a trace of panic. Although he covered it up in a blink of an eye, Doug caught the panic.

"Hmph!" Ferguson snorted heavily as he opened his already big nostrils even bigger.

He seemed to be full of fighting spirit all of a sudden.

"Master Erwin! We [Rhinoceros] are enough~ www.readwn.com~ There is no need to use [Black Dog]'s weaklings!"

rhino! Black dog!

What a nostalgic word, Doug's heart trembled. These two words were the names of Ferguson's mercenary group and his mercenary group.

But since being sent to a labor camp, these words have been sealed in the depths of my memory.

Now they resurfaced in his mind again, and also awakened Doug's habits from being the captain of the mercenary team.

"[Rhinoceros] offal! Who do you call a weak chicken?"

Doug snapped back curtly.

Although his mouth was not polite, Doug's heart was full of joy like a huge wave.

Judging from Ferguson's panicked reaction when he saw him, and what he said to the soldier named Erwin, the Aldos...seem to have something to use them, and it's not low-end jobs like coal shoveling Son, otherwise Ferguson wouldn't need to be so eager - just now he seemed to have some business to be snatched away.

Does that mean... there is hope of getting out of trouble?
