019 Departure(1/3)
The decomposition work lasted for an hour, and the brigade of cavalry appeared in Masha's vision.
It seems that some escaped cavalry found the cavalry brigade to report the news.
Masha met the colonel Anderson, who had a mustache again.
"It's amazing, Miss Andrea, the monster that our brigade may not be able to kill even if it has suffered heavy casualties. You have killed it just by just one person. You must have a lot of amazing equipment."
Well, the colonel completely ignored Masha, and when he did not exist, he believed that all this was the credit of Andrea alone.
Andrea: "It's not me, it's up to Reid-I mean Mr. Reid's self-sacrifice and his struggle with Masha, I just provide support to them."
Colonel Anderson then glanced at Masha, but his eyes immediately turned back to Andrea: "Miss, I will apply for the Congressional Medal of Honor for you, and your Sondan servant will also receive a medal of heroic service."
Masha actually didn't care about the medal, but Andrea was unhappy: "He and Reed deserve the medal of honor, and I did nothing."
Colonel Anderson's eyes turned cold when he saw Andrea, and he said earnestly: "Miss Andrea, it is impossible for Congress to award the Medal of Honor to the Sedan. You should not be blinded by love."
Andrea was stunned for a moment, then retorted: "We are just friends."
"It's just a friend, that's best." Anderson changed the topic, "We will recycle the monster's corpse. I will give you a check. You can go to the United Bank of West to receive the remuneration, which should be more valuable than you sell directly to the town."
Andrea nodded, then pointed to the sergeant who had been helping to disintegrate: "I promised them to share 30% of the sales proceeds."
The colonel raised his eyebrows, glanced at the sergeant, and asked loudly, "Where is Captain Jefferson?"
The sergeant saluted and replied loudly: "Report, the captain ran away in the battle, and we do not know his whereabouts."
Andrea said, "The captain not only left his troops and ran away, but also tried to use me as bait to delay the monster."
Anderson frowned: "This is a serious charge and may require you to testify in the military court. Once convicted, he will deprive him of all honors and publicly condemn his actions in the newspaper. Are you sure you want to do this?"
Andrea bit his lip and replied, "No, let's forget it. I still have something to do and I don't have time to mix up the lengthy military trial."
"Very good, very good." Anderson nodded with satisfaction, "Captain Jefferson died bravely, and he will receive his medal and pension..."
At this time, the adjutant behind Anderson came over and whispered: "If the body is not found, it should be considered MIA (missed during the mission)."
"Bastard! I don't want my subordinates to not even get the pension!" Anderson scolded.
The adjutant immediately stepped down.
Then Colonel Anderson took out the checkbook from his bag on the saddle and wrote two checks on the horse's back, one to Andrea and the other to the respectful sergeant.
Masha stretched his neck to look at the number on the check: 6,000 pounds.
"That's the point?"
As soon as Masha spoke, Andrea interrupted him: "Including the 30% of the sergeant and theirs, it's almost the price."
Masha pointed his thumb at the corpse of the huge creature behind him: "This thing is worth four...what is wrong with the price of five fireball guns?"
"Because that gun is of great value," Andrea said, lifting up the Mexican cloak, stuffing the check between her chest muscles, and then smiling at Anderson, "I'm still rushing to town, please allow me to say goodbye."
"I will send another team of cavalry to escort you," said Colonel Anderson. "Now you have only one servant left, Miss, please do not refuse."
Andrea: "Then I'll bother you all."
As he said that, Andrea pulled Ramasha's sleeve, turned around and walked towards Rhett's horse.

The next journey was very smooth. The newly sent cavalry commander was a talkative old captain, and he told a lot of interesting things all the way.
Masha felt that this guy could talk like an uncle who drove a taxi. Masha had the first time in her previous life, and she fought with the driver from Inter Milan to the Syrian battle situation, which was very socially awesome.
When the moon rose, Masha finally saw the lights of the town.
To be honest, the brilliantness of the lights is a bit beyond Masha's expectations.
"There is electricity in this town?" he asked.
"After all, it's a city with railways." Andrea replied, "But only a few families should have electric lights, and most of them are burning lamps."
The old captain with social awesomeness interrupted: "The street lights on the street burn gas. As for poor families, poor families should all sleep now."
Masha glanced at Susu sitting in front of him, and the little guy fell asleep.
Andrea: "Let's go there too. I'm so tired today. I want to rent the best room and have a good sleep."
Masha: "You mainly fell off the horse and it was awful."
Andrea fell off the horse and was covered in bruises. What's amazing is that her bones were nothing, which made people sigh that fat is more cushioning.
It is also possible that the world's fat is something similar to rubber, which can buffer.
Andrea rubbed his arms and said to Masha, "You have to apply ointment for the bruises on my body later."
“Can’t he use treatment?”
The old captain of the chatterbox explained instead of Andrea: "The treatment technique is not effective for bruises, and it may even accelerate the regeneration of the damage due to the failure of blood stasis, resulting in the worsening of the injury. Therefore, on the battlefield, the bruises will be completely eliminated, and a large wound will be performed, and the treatment technique will be performed."
——What kind of devil doctor?
The old captain shook his eyes at Masha: "You just help her wipe it."
Masha: "I asked my sister to help her wipe it."
Andrea smiled: "Yes, there is Susu, then I'll trouble Susu later... Susu?"
"I'm asleep, wait until I'm shouting to apply medicine to you." Masha said.
The old captain sighed: "Young man, life is short, you have to take action when it's time to take action."
Masha suddenly felt confused and asked the old captain: "Do you have no objection to me taking a white girl?"
"No, I married an Azkite. She has passionate red skin, so beautiful." The old captain smiled, "so skin color cannot be an obstacle to love."
Andrea: "You must be so old that you are just a captain because you make such remarks."
The old captain laughed.
While talking, the group arrived at the edge of the town.
There are several watchtowers in this town, and a gate is built at the starting point of the main road of the town.
The sheriff led the town's security team to wait at the gate in full armed manner, and then lowered the tight gun before seeing the flags the cavalry team was slapped.
A sheriff stepped forward, held up the lantern and shouted, "Who?"
"The Sixth Cavalry Brigade of Maine, Second Company! Ordered to escort the noble lady, Miss Andrea Gastonin to the town."
The sheriff frowned: "Who?"
The old captain took off his hat and pointed to Andrea beside him.
The sheriff's eyes swept over, and when he saw Andrea, the suspicion on his face disappeared.
It seems that the temperament of the old Inglis yellow flag on Andrea is quite useful in the wasteland.
The sheriff made a gesture, so the person behind him removed the roadblock.
"Welcome to Heimu Town." The sheriff said as he stepped back.
Masha noticed that this town was not the one that Andrea and the others got off the train.
He drove his horse forward while looking at Andrea.
Andrea immediately understood and explained: "Berd took us far west, and he felt that Dekin would not think that we would go west instead. Tomorrow we would take the train to Fort Worde, and we would pass by Kushui Town on the way."
Masha: "Will Dekin wait for us there?"
"Normally, it's possible, but now the federal army has been alarmed, he should have left." Andrea said confidently.
After the words came, the old captain seized the opportunity and said, "We will go to the town government to seek resettlement and say goodbye here, Miss Gastonin, Mr. Ma, and the little cutie who I don't know what it is. I wish you a good journey."
Andrea nodded and greeted: "Thank you for your escort."
"Thank you." Masha also raised his hat.
Then the old captain led the cavalry to drive along the town avenue and soon disappeared.
Andrea told Masha: "There should be many hotels in the town, let's look for them."
Masha looked around and found that the town was much larger than that of a town with only one leather factory. Within the range of sight, Masha saw a very huge yard with coal as high as a hill.
In addition, there are several water towers in this town, which may be used to add water to the train boiler.
Andrea: "Let's go, the towns along this railway are usually long and you can find everything you want by walking along the main road."
Masha nodded and gently kicked the horse's belly with the spur on her shoes.
The horse took small and brisk steps forward.
Andrea follows Masha: "I may have to spend a lot of money when I arrive at Fort Worth because I lose almost all my equipment."
After all, Andrea's own horse was eaten by a mammoth, and Andrea's equipment placed on the saddle was completely shattered and spit out by the mammoth.
Even props made from Nime alloy cannot withstand the sharp teeth of the monster.
Andrea continued worriedly: "We need to re-made equipment and hire a team of professionals, I'm worried that it's not enough."
"Where are you doing some quests in Fort Worth to make money?" asked Masha.
"You want to be a bounty hunter? Well... it's not impossible, but Fort Worth is a big city. If you want to be a bounty hunter in this kind of place, the ability you need is different from being a bounty hunter in the wilderness. You have to be familiar with the underground world, be proficient in action in narrow and dark alleys, and it's best to be able to unlock locks. It's enough to have good marksmanship in the wasteland."
To be continued...
