Chapter 28: First palm


"In order to reunite the brothers of our military camp, we must first understand the situation of the current military camp. Therefore, please introduce the personnel and materials under your management." Dafos looked around and said.
There was a little silence in the big account, Antonios first opened, then Capus, then Alexis... The situation was the most complicated, and Melsis’s words were the most embarrassing, Daves had to remind He tried to be as brief as possible.
Davers listened to his notes. After listening carefully to the introduction of everyone, he had a general understanding of the overall situation of the Menon Barracks. After a little finishing, he said: "According to your report, we have ten heavy infantry squadrons in the military camp, a total of one thousand and nine Fourteen. Four light infantry squadrons, a total of four hundred and eighty-seven. A total of 1, 581 soldiers, weapons and armor, good health, no injuries.
There are three doctors, six female slaves and two camels in the medical camp, but apart from the wound treatment of Hulps, the other two doctors cannot independently treat the wounded.
There are 50 existing escorts and 273 slaves, including 198 female slaves and 75 male slaves. It has twenty-nine horses, eighteen yak, fifty-six sheep, thirty-seven chickens and ducks, and 580 bags of wheat flour. The remaining money for the purchase is a Taranto silver, thirty Mingna, and five drachmas, which is all our belongings. Daves put down the Shake paper roll in his hand and said to everyone: "Do you see any omissions?"

The team officers were a little surprised. It is important to know that mercenaries, including these team officers, are mostly uneducated, not to mention numerical calculations and summary summaries.
Melsis "Hey! Hey! Hey!" slaps his hands: "Davers, you are too powerful! This fast counting ability! It is much better than me!"
Next to Antonios remembered that Davers was illiterate, and glanced at the paper roll quietly, and found that all the strange symbols and fonts above, could not help but feel blank.
The team officers glanced at each other and added a little bit of recognition to Daves' ability.
"Since there is no objection. Then wait a moment, I am going to participate in the military meeting of the mercenary leader with Filipinos. The squadron leader will go back and inform the soldiers to check the weapons and prepare for the battle. In the afternoon, leave the first The Tenth Infantry Squadron is stationed in the military camp, and the other squadrons are lined up in order to enter the venue of the General Assembly. Because there are many people, you must maintain order and prevent riots." Davers said, look at Herps Asked: "How is the situation in the medical camp? It is about to start the war soon. The wounded soldiers will definitely increase. You have to have a plan. The clean linen bandages should be more prepared, and the auxiliary staff must be at least one more than now. Double enough to use..."
From time to time, Hamps asked Davis to ask some medical questions, such as: Why use fire to barbecue debrideable tools? Why use a piece of cool water on the forehead of a fever patient? ......Davos’s answer is always peculiar and thought-provoking, so Hells regards Daves as a teacher and his attitude is always respectful:
Please rest assured, I will do my best to prepare if I go back. If there is any difficulty, I will definitely come to you for help!"
"You are our Ascleus (the of ancient Greek mythology, the son of Apollo), of course we must do our best to help! If there are medical problems, I can discuss with you; lack of labor, captains Can provide; lack of things, you can find Melsis." Davers laughed.
Everyone has also said that they will help the medical camp.
Melsis took the initiative to report to Daves: "The leader, this morning I have let the slaves slaughter some sheep and do a lot of bacon. After a while, I will put the remaining sheep and chickens and ducks, and The cattle are slaughtered, made into sausages, and they reserve food for the march. What do you think?"
"Mersis, you are our big steward! The food is handed over to you, we are all at ease, are you right?!" Daves said half-jokingly and half-heartedly.
"Yes! Melsis is very good at managing the squad!" Antonios should be.
"That's the cost is more expensive!" Eppinis shouted jokingly.
"Even if you are given one for free, you can't use it urgently! You are only interested in boys!" Melsis immediately counterattacked.
"Ha ha ha..." The crowd laughed, and the atmosphere in the big account was a lot easier.
"Firisius, do you have anything to add?" Daphus finally asked his adjutant.
Filipius faced a younger leader than himself. He was somewhat unnatural. He coughed twice and said, "I have two questions, I hope to attract the attention of the leader. First, since we are about to fight with Persia, Is the next marching route changed? If we change, how should we go? The second is... um... Before our military camp had been the guard of the whole army, now we have to start the war, and then as the defender, our camp is too bad. It!"
"Firisius is right, we can't be a guard anymore!"
"Please rest assured, I will raise it at the military meetings of the leaders, and will fight for it! As for the marching route, I want to be sure soon at the summit meeting, because this is the most important issue! "Daves' confident words made the team officials suspicious."
.................................
At the end of the meeting, just after the big account, the first squad leader of the Light Shield, Epiphanes, could not help but marvel: "I can't believe this young man is the first leader!"
"Don't look at his age, the arrangement is not only meticulous, but also very organized, and it is still very majestic. We are not experienced veterans, so no one has risen and refute him!" Another light shield squadron commander Zipert said with amazement.
"I think this young man is good! At least the atmosphere of the meeting is very good, unlike Mellon, it is a viper, which one session does not train everyone!" Heavy infantry captain Lacey Marcus said with a smile.
"If on the battlefield, this little guy has such a wonderful performance, his leader is qualified!" Another heavy infantry squadron leader Amintas reminded everyone.
"Do not worry, although this new leader is young, but a smart person, there is no big problem with Filipius assisted by him." Heavy infantry squadron leader Alexis comforted.
"Hiccups us, what are you afraid of! Davers only needs to play the role of his gods, we can reduce casualties, go home safely!" Chipert said loudly ~EbookFREE.me~ everyone even claimed.
Followed by Capps, Antonios said with relief: "It seems that Davers has initially won the approval of everyone."
Antonios was still immersed in the scene he saw at the meeting, muttering: "He still needs to prove himself in battle, but I have confidence in him! He will become a great mercenary leader!"
.................................
Davers stood at the door and calmly watched the crowd leave. At this moment, he did not think about the effect of his first debut as a leader, but was considering the issue of military management.
The Greek mercenary military system is roughly the same as the Greek city-state military system: the lowest-ranking officer is the squad leader, which has 10 people; the squadron leader is one to one hundred to one hundred and twenty-two; sometimes the detachment leader is set up. There are about 50 people under the jurisdiction; the top is the captain, and there are about a thousand people; the general is the general. The number of soldiers under the general is determined according to the number of soldiers that can be sent by the city. According to the reason, Davers should be the captain at this time, but the mercenary can have thousands of soldiers, even if it is a large mercenary group, so that it can independently undertake combat missions, so it is barely a general.
Dover's previous life was graduated from the University of Political Science and Law, but he learned management. He knows that the most effective number of direct management of a leader is seven. Now, there are fourteen squadron leaders in a military conference, really in the war, the order If the soldiers convey an order, will it be a long delay and the action will be slow? If you can re-integrate these squadrons... Davers knows that he can only think about it now. After all, he has just become a leader and rushed to reform the military system. I am afraid that it will cause the team officials to resent. He pressed the thought down and turned to Melsis, who was still in the account, saying: "They are gone. What do you say?"
