Veterinarian in the Army

Leishande emerged from a patch of low bushes and asked Roy, "Roy, what are you doing here? Weren't you supposed to be back in Castleton City?"

His gaze fell on the two Elf Warrior beside Roy, his eyes filled with wariness.

The two Elf Warrior were also carefully examining Leishande...

Roy walked over and stood in front of Leishande, saying, "I was temporarily transferred by Earl Swynborne to the battlefield on the Pagisto Plateau, as War Coordinator."

Leishande had dealt with Roy a few times and knew that Roy must have connections with the military, otherwise how could he have so easily brought a large number of weapons and armor to the Pattington Plane?

Roy said earnestly to Leishande, "Leishande, I'm asking you for help this time. My Logistics Regiment is facing a small problem. The horses in the Logistics Regiment have suffered heavy losses recently, and our transport capacity is severely insufficient. So we need your argali sheep Transport Team to help transport a batch of supplies."

Leishande never expected that he would approach him about this matter.

I thought Roy wanted to conscript some Half-Elf from the highlands to fight in the name of the Silver Moon Elf military.

Leishande breathed a sigh of relief. The argali sheep were hidden in the jungle behind him. Even if he abandoned them all, it wouldn't be a big deal. In fact, Roy had helped Leishande's argali sheep caravan get at least half of the sheep.

"Um, Roy, you want to requisition my argali sheep Transport Team?" Leishande asked in a low voice.

Roy nodded and said, "Please help me, Leishande. The Mountain Road in this hilly area are really difficult to travel. A lot of supplies have to be abandoned halfway."

Although Leishande was somewhat worried, he had no choice but to agree, so he also wanted to take the opportunity to ask for some benefits.

"Alright, but... you have to make sure they don't harm the Half-Elf on the plateau, otherwise I'll become a sinner against the Half-Elf of the Pagisto Plateau," Leishande said seriously to Roy.

Roy patted Leishande on the shoulder and said, "I can assure you of that. The Silver Moon Elf army entered the Pagisto Plateau only to drive away those Elf Headhunters and have a good talk with those elven Mine Owners."

Upon hearing Roy's suggestion, Leishande readily agreed:

"Alright, for your sake, I can help you with this."

He bumped fists with Roy, turned and walked back into the jungle, whereupon a series of clear whistles echoed.

'Whoosh whoosh whoosh... whoosh...'

Roy and the two Elf Warrior didn't have to wait long before they saw Leishande leading a lead argali sheep out of the forest, followed by a line of argali sheep. The Half-Elf at the very back was Leishande's son Langbo.

Roy and Langbo hugged.

Langbo was a staunch admirer of Roy, and upon seeing Roy appear, he ran up to him without hesitation.

The two Elf Warrior were somewhat incredulous as they looked at the large herd of argali sheep before them.

Because this area has been scouted by more than just Silver Pegasus Warrior from the air.

In addition, cavalry reconnaissance regiments were conducting reconnaissance on the ground...

As the Cavalry Vanguard Regiment entered the mountains of the Pagisto Plateau, a large number of Logistics Regiment were scattered throughout the Hilly Mountain Area. However, these Silver Moon Elf were completely unaware that a Half-Elf argali sheep Transport Team was hiding right under their noses.

Since Roy had brought this caravan to help, the Elf Warrior did not immediately raise any questions.

Roy brought Leishande and his son Langbo back to the Logistics Regiment Logistics Regiment, along with more than thirty argali sheep.

Commander Berkeley, revealed his identity to Leishande. Only after seeing the thirty-odd strong Bighorn Argali Sheep following behind Leishande did the worry on his face lessen.

"Thank you both for your help. If we can get these supplies to the front lines on time, I will apply to the military for a transportation subsidy to compensate you for your losses," Commander Berkeley said.

These words startled Leishande. It turned out that Roy hadn't brought them here for free.

There's also a subsidy to be received! Leishande didn't care how much transportation subsidy he could get, but at least the Silver Moon Elf had shown some sincerity.

Standing beside his father, Langbo looked at the Silver Moon Elf Officer before him and mustered his courage to ask, "Have you come to the plateau to capture those Highland Slavers?"

Commander Berkeley answered without hesitation, "Of course. Earl Swynborne's Conscription Order made it very clear that we are entering the Pagisto Plateau to defeat those Mine Owners and save the Half-Elf on the Pagisto Plateau."

Compared to Leishande, Langbo was much more excited.

He was a young, Half-Elf who was easily swayed by others and prone to impulsiveness. He said, "I don't want your compensation, I just want you to drive away those Highland Headhunters."

The Commander Berkeley was slightly taken aback; he could clearly sense Langbo's sincerity.

"Compensation will still be given. We will rely on you two for many things in the future. How much do you know about the environment of this Hilly Mountain Area?" said the Commander Berkeley.

This was originally a matter for the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion to pay for, and Commander Berkeley had no intention of saving the military money.

"We are quite familiar with the situation in this area," Leishande said confidently.

Commander Berkeley led Leishande and Langbo around the convoy, which was piled high with military supplies. Several wagons had been abandoned along the way, and the wagons were now almost overloaded, with the horses in poor condition.

Some of the goods had already been unloaded from the wagons, and it was clear that if Roy couldn't find a solution, these supplies would have to be temporarily discarded.

Leishande knew the Hilly Mountain Area terrain was terrible, but he didn't expect these Mountain Road to cause such heavy losses to the convoy.

This reminded Leishande of the past... how exactly those Elf Merchants brought supplies to the Pagisto Plateau.

This was exactly what Commander Berkeley Commander Berkeley n't figure out, no matter how hard he tried. He asked Leishande, "How do you think our convoy should navigate to avoid the complicated and difficult mountain roads?"

Leishande was silent for a moment, then looked around and turned to Commander Berkeley, asking, "Do you have a map?"

Commander Berkeley Leishande to a tent in front of which was a map pasted on the trunk of a large tree. Although the map was somewhat rough, it at least depicted the terrain of the Hilly Mountain Area.

"This is it," Commander Berkeley said, pointing to the map.

The marching route was also drawn in red on the map.

"Is this the marching route your transport regiment chose?" Leishande asked after looking at it for a while.

"That's right," Commander Berkeley answered frankly.

Leishande quickly shook his head and said to Commander Berkeley, "This road is not easy to travel. If it were just a horse caravan, it would be no problem to pass through this road, but it is not suitable for a convoy, especially after it has rained, when the Mountain Road will be very muddy."

After saying that, Leishande picked up a red and blue pencil from under the map and casually drew several circles around the mountain ranges with thick blue lines.

"If we go this way, the road conditions will be much better."

He spoke calmly to the Commander Berkeley.

More than thirty argali sheep joined the Logistics Regiment, Elf Warrior moved some of the supplies from the wagons onto the argali sheep.

These argali sheep have strong limbs and are very good at walking on Mountain Road. They are also quite large and have a high carrying capacity.

They were also used to carrying Magic Herbs, so the Elf Warrior moved the supplies onto the argali sheep, which greatly reduced the load on the vehicles. At this point, the Logistics Regiment was finally able to set off again in stages according to the marching plan.

When the Commander Berkeley saw the argali sheep laden with supplies and the vehicles with their loads lightened, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

He waved his arm, signaling the Logistics Regiment to proceed along the path Leishande had indicated...

As it turned out, the road pointed out by Leishande was very easy to travel. Although the route was a bit roundabout, it was at least very suitable for horse-drawn carriages.

Every time the Logistics Regiment went ahead, it felt like there was no road ahead, but if they went a little further, they would find that they could still move forward after turning a corner.

To the Commander Berkeley's surprise, the Logistics Regiment took only two days to successfully leave the last part of the Hilly Mountain Area area and arrive at the foot of a mountain on the edge of the Pagisto Plateau.

The Cavalry Vanguard Regiment had been stationed here before, and left behind a large number of marching tents due to a change of equipment.

This place was clearly a military outpost. A company of the Cavalry Vanguard Regiment was waiting in the outpost. When the leading Cavalry Company Commander saw that the Logistics Regiment had finally caught up, he hurriedly came out of the outpost and asked Commander Berkeley, "Why are you so late this time?"

Commander Berkeley also knew that the Logistics Regiment had failed to arrive at the military camp on time, delaying the Cavalry Vanguard Regiment's journey.

"The roads in the Hilly Mountain Area are too difficult to travel. These wagons always get stuck in the mud. We really want to get here as soon as possible..." Commander Berkeley jumped off his horse and couldn't help but complain.

In fact, the Commander Berkeley's Logistics Regiment was the first logistics team to arrive.

Everyone was busy transporting supplies into the camp when they realized that the entire camp was empty.

The Cavalry Company Commander didn't say anything more, but took out a supply list from his pocket and handed it to Commander Berkeley, saying:

"Okay, here is the list of supplies. Check it out as soon as possible. We need to take these supplies with us in the next step."

Commander Berkeley dared not delay and immediately instructed his deputy to check the supplies according to the list.

Commander Berkeley's Logistics Regiment then stayed at the military camp for two days.

During this period, several more Logistics Regiment entered the garrison, along with Commander Berkeley, the Logistics General of the Seventeenth Silver Pegasus Legion.

Because they were unfamiliar with the complex terrain of Hilly Mountain Area, most of the Logistics Regiment lost at least half of their supplies along the way.

The horses and vehicles of each Logistics Regiment suffered severe losses.

Some Logistics Regiment delivered supplies to the camp and then immediately left, busy picking up their comrades who remained in the Hilly Mountain Area. Only a few Elf Warrior were left to count and hand over the supplies, causing chaos in the military camp.

If Commander Berkeley hadn't shared that Mountain Road, passable by horse-drawn carriages, with the other Logistics Regiment early on, these Logistics Regiment probably still wouldn't be able to leave the Hilly Mountain Area.

For the past two days, Commander Berkeley has been in meetings, presumably the legion's logistics department is studying the next supply plan.

As for Roy, he's been staying at the military camp for the past two days, but he hasn't been idle either.

Elf Warrior would often find Roy and ask him to help heal their injured warhorses. His name somehow spread throughout the military camp.

Many of the Elf Warrior in the Logistics Regiment knew that there was a very skilled veterinarian in the camp who could heal the warhorses.

Moreover, he's very easy to talk to; while he wouldn't say he'll grant every request, he's close to it...

However, no Silver Moon Elf Warrior sought Roy's help for their injuries. They mostly bandaged their wounds and drank the Tree of Life Sap and Healing Potion. Only seriously injured elves could receive treatment from the priests of the Moon God Temple, but there were currently no priests from the Moon God Temple at the military camp here.

Leishande and Langbo were also left at the military camp. In fact, they both knew very well that the Logistics Regiment was severely lacking in transport capacity, and it was impossible to let them leave at this time.

On the third night after arriving at the military camp, Commander Berkeley entered Roy's tent and said to Roy, who was practicing divine magic inside:

"The military headquarters has ordered the Logistics Regiment to keep up with the Cavalry Vanguard Regiment to ensure that the Vanguard Regiment has sufficient supplies. Roy, you will also be coming with us into the Pagisto Plateau this time," said Commander Berkeley.

Roy nodded without hesitation.

Because Roy knew... that was his mission here.

When he left Padesto City, Earl Swynborne had already made it clear to Roy that he needed Roy's help to find the Elf Headhunters lurking on the plateau and that he needed Roy to provide the specific locations of those mines.

Commander Berkeley turned his gaze to Leishande, looking somewhat troubled, and said, "In addition... due to the severe shortage of transport capacity in the Logistics Regiment, the Mountain Road ahead are impassable for horse-drawn carriages. Therefore, Leishande... your pack caravan will continue to help us transport another batch of supplies to the plateau."

Leishande was prepared for this; even if he disagreed, he couldn't change the Silver Moon Elf military's decision, so he might as well agree readily.

"That's no problem," he said readily. "If you don't want to take the carriage, you can choose a shorter Mountain Road."

Sure enough, the Commander Berkeley's eyes lit up.

Abandoning the wagon transport of supplies was a last resort, but with Leishande's guarantee, Commander Berkeley felt that another door had been opened before him.

"That's wonderful..."

"We're leaving tomorrow morning, so we need to be prepared tonight," Commander Berkeley said to Roy and Leishande.

Sure enough, the next morning, Commander Berkeley led a Logistics Regiment toward the outer mountains of the Pagisto Plateau, the caravan laden with various supplies.

Without the burden of horse-drawn carriages, the group could slowly make its way up the treacherous mountain path.

Roy followed in the procession on his little stallion.
