Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 1389: Registration

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

As an air cavalry base in the frontline, the no. 46 air cavalry base covered about 6 square miles. Looking down from the sky, this base and the other air cavalry bases were close to the human line of defense in the east bank of Weishui River like dense pearls. The distance between two air cavalry bases near Weishui River was about 120 miles. Each ordinary air cavalry base contained an air cavalry regiment. Some large air cavalry bases were directly renovated from airports, where more air cavalries were encamped.

In fewer than half an hour, they had already approached the no. 46 air cavalry base.

The no. 46 air cavalry base was surrounded by farm fields. As it was an autumn harvest, it was golden all over the farm fields. Two farm villages were near the base. Famers were busy reaping wheat by machines in farm fields. Some air cavalry I airplanes would fly across the farm fields in a formation from time to time.

Being fewer than 1.2 miles away from the base, when Stone was introducing Zhang Tie to the situation in the base, one guy suddenly flashed out of the pile of straw on the roadside as he waved his hand towards Stone. Stone slammed on the brake at once, leaving two black lines on the road.

“Damn it, do you wanna die...” Stone stretched his head out of the window as he started to swear that person.

The guy who stopped the vehicle looked languish. He was a bit elder than Stone. He was wearing a blue uniform of air cavalry while one of his arms was fixed by a bandage around his neck. When this guy stopped the SUV, Zhang Tie saw a foreign girl drilling out of a nearby roadside pile of straw. After smoothing her dress, she ran towards a farm village in the far along the ridge...

“Stop it, Stone. This elder brother has a pair of sharp eyes. I’ve long spotted your driving plate. I believe in your driving skills. Give me a ride. If there’re good girls, this elder brother will introduce them to you...” That guy told Stone with a big smile as he came to the door of the driver.

Stone peered at the young major through the rearview mirror while feeling guilty. Closely after that, he insinuated that guy to leave out of here right away.

“Wuh, you’ve got a passenger...” That guy looked at the back seat after seeing Stone’s eye light as he found that Zhang Tie was also looking at him. At the sight of Zhang Tie’s uniform, that guy’s smile froze at once as he stammered, “Si...sir...”

Any human army was a hierarchical organ of violence, including those in Taixia Country. Zhang Tie’s military rank was major; however, that guy was just a sergeant. There was a sharp difference between them. In the army, Zhang Tie could easily send him into the hell by one word. However, this guy was not sure that Zhang Tie didn’t see anything just now.

“Do you want a hitchhike? Get on. There’re a few miles to go...” Zhang Tie said calmly.

After hearing Zhang Tie’s words, that guy could only make a detour as he sat in the co-pilot’s seat. After that, Stone restarted the car and headed for the base.

The moment that guy got on the vehicle, he had tipped Stone a wink as he wanted to get some “tip” from Stone. However, Stone dared not make any petty action in front of Zhang Tie at all. He stared blankly forward as if he had not seen that guy’s impression.

“How’s that girl?” Zhang Tie opened his mouth.

“No...not bad...” That guy instantly became spirited as he kept twisting his body restlessly.

“She doesn’t look Hua!”

“Right, she...she came to Taixia Country from Fengyang Subcontinent 4 years ago. She’s living in a nearby farm village...”

“How do you know each other...”

“When I flew over a farm field by plane, she was waving her towel towards me...I also waved my hand to her. From then on, we knew each other...”

“Oh, you indeed have sharp eyes. You could flirt with girls even in training...” Zhang Tie said as he revealed a smile.

“Our air cavalries have good eyesight. Of...of course...” That guy wanted to show off; however, he instantly realized that it was not the right atmosphere. Therefore, he slowed down his voice...

“Did you force her to do that...”

“Ahh, of course not. We’re voluntary!” That guy almost sprung up as if his butt had been branded by a piece of searing iron. “Erm...She said her dad didn’t feel good lately...As I’m injured, I’ve got 2 vials of all-purpose medicament from my camp...I...I gave one to her...later on...as you’ve all seen...”

“I’ve not imagined that you’re a Casanova!” Zhang Tie let out a sigh.

“No, no, I’m not!” That guy replied with a smile.

“However, the all-purpose medicament that your camp delivered to you were for curing your wounds. After curing your wound, you need to go back to your troop for the fight. The all-purpose medicament is a military good. Even if they were delivered to you, they didn’t belong to you, just like the airplane that you drive. You gift military good to others, do you know what crime have you made and what punishment would you face?”

Zhang Tie’s words froze the atmosphere inside the car at once while that guy who was smiling just now instantly turned completely pale. Anyone who dared trade or embezzled military goods privately would be beheaded. In the theater of operations where military laws took effect, as his superior, Zhang Tie could even directly kill him at present without the trial of the Military Trial Center.

After hearing Zhang Tie’s question, Stone swallowed his saliva forcefully. He wanted to say something; however, he dared not. Because Zhang Tie’s calm voice was overbearing, that guy was also too shocked to utter a word...

“How did you get wounded?”

“Ahh...One week ago, when I fought a wing demon, the wing demon broke the cockpit and pierced through my hand by its spine. Thankfully, I survived myself by returning to the base by one hand...”

“Given your wound, I will pretend to not know about what happened to you today. No more! If you were caught by the Military Trial Center, you might barely escape from their punishment...”

“Ahh, thanks, officer; thanks, officer...” That guy was so happy that he had not imagined that he could survive the criminal punishment. After experiencing such mood fluctuations, his back had been wet all over.

Stone who was intense all over just now relaxed his muscles on the hands and the back at once as he let out a deep breath.

The SUV soon arrived at the gate of No. 46 air cavalry base. After checking, the SUV entered the gate. Stone soon parked it somewhere and let off the guy on the co-pilot seat.

“Wait a moment...”

Watching that guy getting off the vehicle, Zhang Tie stopped him, causing the guy intense once again.

“Return to your troop as soon as possible!” Zhang Tie raised his hand as he threw an item towards him through the window. That guy instantly caught it dexterously as he found that was a vial of an all-purpose medicament...

“Let’s go...” Zhang Tie ordered Stone to continue driving. From the rearview mirror, Zhang Tie found that the guy was seeing off the SUV blankly with a vial of all-purpose medicament in hand...

“Sir, you’re a good man...” Stone finally opened his mouth seriously after being silent for a short while.

“We’ve all been young...” Zhang Tie sighed with emotions.

Stone stared at Zhang Tie with a weird look through the rearview mirror as he wondered why Zhang Tie let out such a sigh. Because Zhang Tie was still very young given his look; why did his words sound as if he was an elder?

Zhang Tie just replied with a smile silently as he shook his head. That guy reminded Zhang Tie of his past experience. When in Kalur Theater of Operations, Zhang Tie was also that free. At that time, he got acquainted with Hanna, Linda and reached his heyday using earthworms. Zhang Tie thought that that was really a rare free, leisure and happy period since he joined the army...

This air cavalry base occupied a wide area, being filled with soldiers in blue or pale blue uniform. Besides that high observation post, the base was full of low buildings, which were at most 3-storeyed. The oil warehouse was underground. All the other buildings such as plane warehouses, material warehouses and dorms were low in the same style. Even those plants in the base were shorter than people. Although it was Zhang Tie’s first time to visit here, he was very familiar with this base. Because all the air cavalry bases in the theater of operations referred to the air cavalry base in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory. Zhang Tie even participated in determining the specifications and construction standards about various facilities in these air cavalry bases. Actually, all the air cavalry bases in the theater of operations were founded with Zhang Tie’s support. This base proved Zhang Tie’s “meritorious services” as Weiji General in one aspect...

Stone directly parked the car outside the regimental headquarters of the base. Zhang Tie then went to the regimental headquarters for registration alone.
