"You misunderstood."

Vito's reaction was quite quick. He showed a hint of surprise just right, and then said a little at a loss, "I just did things according to Mr. Heck's orders, and never deliberately showed myself..."

“I don’t need to listen to this.”

Major Benjamin interrupted Vito, "Just read it clearly with your own mind. Branch 78 is the branch of Earl City. Some rules have been implemented for many years. It's not your turn to change them randomly, do you understand?"

He looked impatient and clearly felt disgusted with the recent base reform, and even owed a few beautiful words.

Obviously, in the eyes of Major Benjamin, Vito does not have the right to talk to him equally. These words are said to Vito on the surface, but rather to Colonel Heck, who "supports behind his back."

Vito did not turn against him, but just returned to the team silently.

He probably understood in his heart that the Lieutenant Colonel Ruf, who wanted to give Heck a warning and directly made an excuse to avoid him, although the person was not in the base, he must have arranged a confidant before leaving, keeping a close eye on the movements in the base, and maybe even arranged a person to come out to make trouble at any time.

Otherwise, Benjamin, who had been fooling around all day and had not seen anyone for several days, would not have been so clear about what happened in the base in the past two days, and would have dared to make such ruthless words to Heck from a distance.

This scene also fell into the eyes of the naval soldiers who had gathered together. After two days of getting along, many soldiers who had a good impression of Vito were suddenly a little angry and started to whisper in private.

"Hey, that guy Benjamin doesn't see him once or twice a few months, but at this time he knows he's the major."

"I only dare to bully Captain Vito, who is easy to talk to. I really have opinions and abilities to go to Colonel Heck."

"I was so drunk that I probably went to the bar for a night last night. I don't know if I've sobered up now..."

...

Obviously, although Benjamin is a major and almost considered the second-in-command of the base before Heck took office, his popularity and prestige are quite limited, and it is a bit annoying.

No matter those recruits who are still innocent and pure beliefs, or old fry who are used to being lazy in daily life, they don’t like this commander much.

Vito noticed this keenly, and at the same time he also found that there were a few people in the crowd, with gloating expressions on their faces, as if they were happy to see his hot face pressed against his cold butt and being scolded by Benjamin.

This is probably the confidant of Lieutenant Colonel Ruf's department. The report that Jamin Baben heard was beaten by these people. Vito withdrew his gaze and silently recorded all the appearances of these people in his heart.

He was not a vengeful person, but he just felt that perhaps the next training would be time for Seth to give them some extra ingredients.

"Okay, all are quiet!"

Benjamin also heard some comments vaguely, but he was not caring. He obviously had been used to this kind of treatment, so he turned back to the topic and gave orders coldly:

"You have probably heard about what happened at the port. The specific situation has not been clarified now. Don't panic. Everything will be implemented according to the base's emergency treatment plan!"

"The first and second teams stayed at the base and strengthened their defense. The fourth and fifth teams followed me to the port to check the situation. The sixth teams were divided into two groups and went to notify the city hall and the city guards respectively. The movement should be fast and understand if you understand!"

"Yes, Major!"

A sparse response sound came from below.

The combat ranks are the grassroots organization of the navy. The leader is usually the second lieutenant, with a number of people generally less than a hundred. They are divided into several squads. The corresponding military rank of the squad leader is Cao Cao.

The 78 branch base was incomplete, with only about 400 people in total. According to the number of second lieutenants, it was divided into six combat teams.

At present, all the five teams have their own tasks, and the only fourth team that has not been mentioned is the group of naval forces that followed Ruf to escort the pirates to the G-2 branch in the early morning yesterday.

Now it seems that this unlucky fourth combat team is in danger.

...

Four personnel carriers pulled by snow lions had already parked at the base door.

Unlike the carriages sent by the Hanson family to pick up Heck before, the carriages of these cars do not pay attention to comfort at all. Everything is mainly based on capacity, and it is still open-air without a roof. One car can stuff thirty or forty people in one car.

This thing is obviously a local feature of Earl Island, allowing the soldiers at the base to maintain mobility on this snow-covered island all year round and can be quickly mobilized in emergencies.

It was just that the snow lions were suffering. Vito sat several meters apart and could hear them panting along the way. Fortunately, the base was only more than ten kilometers away from the port. If the distance was several times more, it would be possible that they would have to die of exhaustion halfway.

Captain Ibuprofen also followed him to the port, but the guy did not get on the personnel carrier, but rode a very slim white snow motorcycle, tightly hanging behind the snow lion.

The steampunk's exaggerated shape and the rolling black smoke that gushed out of the exhaust pipe gave Vito a rather subtle sense of incongruity.

He looked at the old-fashioned rifles in the hands of the soldiers, and the architectural styles similar to those of the medieval European surroundings, silently. The technology tree in this world is indeed outrageously crooked, and it can refresh his inherent cognition just right every time.

"My father bought this motorcycle for me. I spent tens of millions of Baileys. I can't afford the money myself."

It seemed that people were afraid that they would feel that they were walking alone. This young captain with a somewhat silly and honest personality explained to Vito a long time before getting on the car, "Actually, I would rather ride in the snow lion car, but my father insisted that even if these guys were tamed, they would still be beasts from the mountains and were not very safe..."

This statement is quite in line with the stubborn concept of the older generation. The father of Ibuprofen, who is said to be extremely famous, undoubtedly experienced the era when the city wall was harassed and attacked by wild beasts in the deep mountains when the city wall was not built. Vito was not surprised.

He was more interested in the old doctor's family. He could only buy tens of millions of Baileys for his son to buy a transportation tool. Not to mention being a doctor, I'm afraid that except for the two major families, there are not many rich people in the entire Earl Island that can have such generous things.

There was light snow floating all the way, which had a slight impact on the speed of the snow lions. However, after twenty minutes, the snow lion cart with more than 100 people finally arrived at the port smoothly without any obstacles.

Several naval soldiers stationed in the port were already waiting for a long time with anxiety on their faces. When they saw the people from the base coming, they hurriedly came up before Vito and others got out of the car.

It was at this time that when they saw Ruf who was temporarily placed in the post, everyone realized that things seemed to be much more serious than they thought.

The lieutenant colonel, who was accidentally discovered by a coastal fisherman, was lying on the bed and was still in a coma. His uniform was tattered and blood could be seen everywhere.
