Chapter 190 Swing the first sword of war
The spring wind walked through the iron railings of the windows with the fragrance of flowers in the flowerbed and entered the classroom.
Behind the desk, the primary school students who opened the history textbooks one by one listened carefully to the teacher's lecture on the podium.
Page wrote a date on the blackboard, February 17, 1920.
She turned around and asked the students, "Does anyone know who swung the first sword that symbolized the beginning of the war on this day, thus opening the prelude to the magnificent war?"
The white little hands were raised up, and no one in the podium did not raise his hands.
Page smiled slightly. This school is a school for the children of the army. The students' parents participated in the war that took place in the southern coastal areas. They were all children who grew up listening to the war stories. If they fail the history class this semester, they will definitely not have good results when they go home.
"It seems everyone knows it." Page said to the students with a smile, "Then let's say his name together. One, two, three..."
"Charles McGarden!" xn
The students' answers flew out of the window, crossed the flowerbed and the playground, and ran to the half ear of the guard who was drinking tea in the school guard room.
Having been a doorman for decades, he knew that there would be such a sound in which class in the first day of school today. Half of his ear was revealed in the accompanying picture on that page of the history textbook, but unfortunately that half of his ear disappeared later.
He swung the first sword of war. The honor was probably obtained by his own team, but no one expected that the one who received the honor in the end was Charles, who was only eight years old at the time.
He couldn't help but recall what he saw and heard that day. Charles's performance was indeed amazing at that time, but it was just something that happened later...
He smiled and poured a cup of tea into his small cup from the purple clay pot, and then while drinking the fragrant tea, listening to the reading sounds of the children floating on campus, recalling the magnificent epic that was so awesome from that day on.
??Divine Calendar February 17, 1920??
The sun hangs high in the sky and the highest point you can reach today.
The spring breeze in February blows the willow trees on the roadside out the buds, and also blows away the smoke and dust rising from the horses on the road.
Elizabeth, who was leading the guards, raised his right hand and made a pause gesture. A sound of war horses neighing, and more than a hundred cavalrymen quickly stopped on the road.
The scout who had gone out to explore the way came back. He rode his horse to Elizabeth's war horse, and then said, "Report to the commander, a robbery team of fifty fishmen were found two kilometers ahead, with six wooden carts loaded with food, and more than twenty cattle and horses."
"Are there any captured people?" Elizabeth asked.
The scout replied, "No captured person was found."
Elizabeth narrowed her eyes slightly, and she shouted "Charles!"
"Come!" Charleszer, who followed Elizabeth, immediately walked forward a few steps.
Elizabeth ordered, "As a forward, you set out six hundred meters ahead to open the road, and you will all be smashed when you encounter enemy blocks."
"Yes!" Charles received the order and whipped the horse with a horse whip, and galloped forward first.
Then Elizabeth continued to order, "Henry!"
"Come!" A guard member rushed forward.
Elizabeth ordered, "You lead two squads to respond three hundred meters behind the forward."
"Yes!" Henry took the order and left with two teams of cavalry under his command.
Finally Elizabeth waved her hand and the other large forces continued to move forward.
In front of the main road, a fishman commander was directing his subordinates to block the main road with a stolen wooden truck.
As regular troops of the Oms Kingdom, they have been pretending to be robbery team here for several days. Following the guidance of His Royal Highness the Prince, they have eliminated many elves in the past few days.
The grain bags on the wooden cart that the elf scout just saw were actually stones and soil. The fish people crossed the wooden carts full of stone and soil bags on the road, which was equivalent to building a simple fortification.
In the past few days, several elves militia patrols were blocked by this fortification, and then the ambush less than ten meters on both sides of the road were stabbed into punctured fish with the thrown harpoons.
The fishman commander had just seen the departing cavalry scout. He could tell from the armor on the scout that this time it was a big fish.
At this time, two fishmen came to report that one hundred ambushed soldiers on the left and right sides were ready in the bushes on the side of the road.
After these days of cooperation, the person in charge of blocking the road and the fishman in charge of ambush have cooperated very skillfully, and the commander has no need to give orders.
The fishman commander nodded and according to the method taught by His Royal Highness the Prince, it was indeed useful to insert branches and grass into the specially opened holes in the clothes. The elves' patrol team could not find them at all.
Thinking that this time the big fish came, if you follow the old method, you might be slapped by the fish tail, so the fishman commander said to the deputy next to him, "Go and tie cloth strips on the tails of those cattle and horses, and follow my order to ignite the cloth strips, so that the cattle and horses can disperse the enemy."
After receiving the order, the deputy took the man to tie a strip of cloth to the tail of the cow and horse.
The commander looked at the road ahead again. All traces of the battle that had happened here before had been eliminated, and there was no trace of ambush in the bushes on both sides of the road.
Soon, a sound of horse hooves came here.
Soon, a cavalry appeared in the sight of the fishman commander.
"Why is it a child?" the commander frowned, "Is it because he went to the battlefield to get credit?"
He thought about it and soon felt relieved. The secondary confirmation of the scout was a relatively simple task. Just take a look from a distance and see if there was any difference with the previous investigation content.
However, since it is a reward for credit, it means that the child has a good status.
So the fishman commander ordered, "Everyone pretended to be afraid of someone coming, put him closer and tried to capture him as much as possible, and if he had to be beaten to death, he would have to keep a complete head."
?Divide line?
In the not very far north, in a luxurious manor, a group of young girls were having an ostensible lunch in the restaurant.
After the Temple of Life that day, Charles and Diana lie down for more than ten days before waking up.
Since the Elf King's Court had entered a state of war at this time, except for Charles' stay, everyone else embarked on the journey back to the Knowledge City in advance.
However, they did not return as usual, but went north by land, led by Mira to visit her classmate Daenerys's house, and then prepared to return to school together at the end of February when the holiday was about to end.
As the largest sugarcane planting and sugar production family in the southern human society supported by the Elf Royal Court, the Daenerys family plays an important role in the south.
Wealth and status gave Daenerys a capital that was enough to stand out for many people.
Daenerys had no good feelings for Diana from the beginning, but she endured it when she saw Mira had a good relationship with Diana. She didn't even look at the little follower in her eyes.
At the dining table, Daenerys, who was the owner, maintained her apparent politeness and greeted Mira and the others for a meal.
Just as the maids were delivering drinks, the cups in front of Mira, Diana and Mordred suddenly cracked with a "splash".
"It's unlucky!" Daenerys shouted in surprise.
Thinking of Charles on the battlefield, Mira suddenly became panicked.
??Divide line??
Charles was trapped. He only saw the fishman blocking the road, but he didn't expect the fishman to ambush in the bushes on the side of the road, and the number of people lying in ambush reached the total force?
After knocking off several harpoons flying towards him with his sword, he sighed and began to think of a solution.
He just saw the roadblocks set by the fishman, so he stood on the horse's back and used the ex curry stick to kill the fishman to the scum.
The wooden carts, earth and stone bags and forty-nine fishmen who were about to pretend to be scared were gone, leaving only broken wood blocks on the ground, and nearly a hundred legs or feet that were not affected by the magic cannon.
Seeing this scene, some of the fishmen who were ambushing in the bushes on both sides of the road began to escape, while others threw harpoons at him.
Seeing Charles, who had originally planned to launch a happy annihilation battle, he felt very unhappy when he saw that the battle ended up fighting.
He pulled the reins and asked Celestia to run two steps back to avoid the harpoon thrown by the fishman. If the harpoon more than one meter long was pierced on Celestia, it would die.
Because Purple from the North is not suitable for fighting in the southern climate and forage here, Charles gave it to Mordred, and the Celestia he was riding now was given to him by Victoria.
After avoiding the flying harpoon, a pair of wings spawned behind Charles and brought him into the air.
In the daily work of working people, the ex curry stick that can release magic cannons has developed many functions.
The easiest thing is to inject magic power into the sword and then release the "drain digging style" that blasts forward.
Upgrade, control the shape of the magic that is bombed, and then bomb the "tree-cutting" of the flaky magic.
If the magic power is turned into raindrops, it is a "storm-like" way to loosen the wasteland when reclaiming wasteland.
Before Artoria left, she taught Charles these three tricks. Charles had to explore the other uses in practice.
The fish people dared not provoke this monster that suddenly knocked its fifty companions to the point where they only had legs left. After seeing the monster fly up, the fish people who were still fighting stubbornly lost the last bit of courage to resist.
Henry, who was following behind Charles, was ready to respond at any time, and saw Charles flying into the sky in the distance, then waved his sword several times to the ground.
When they arrived on the battlefield, Charles had already ridden Celestia and left first. Only the fishman's legs were left on the ground and the fishman's corpse that was riddled with holes in the bushes on both sides of the road.
