August 10, 290 AD in the Britannia Empire.
The 11th day of the Battle of Feihai.
22:31 pm.
Feihai Plain, Luo Lin Army Camp.
Although it was already late at night, Baal's camp was still brightly lit.
In the huge commander's camp, there are only three people with the highest authority and status in the army: Barr, Denis, and Leo.
There was a stove placed in front of Barr, and a blazing fire was burning in the stove.
Barr, expressionless, placed his hands on top of the burning stove, using the heat of the fire to bake his hands.
This is Baal's habit. Baal likes to bake his hands to suppress the tension, fear and other negative emotions in his heart so that he can calm down.
"Coach Barr..." Denis, who was sitting opposite Barr, said with a gloomy face, "If you don't want to find a way to boost the morale of the entire army, then it will be three days later or one day sooner. This Feihai
We will be defeated in the battle..."
Today is already the 11th day of the Battle of Feihai.
In these 11 days of fierce battles, it can be said that Luo Lin's army was playing worse and worse day by day.
On the first day of the battle, the morale of Luo Lin's army was not as high as that of Britannia's army, so in the first day of the battle, Luo Lin's army was directly at a disadvantage.
This also led to the battle on the second day. Luo Lin's army was in a lower mood and morale was even worse, which made the battle on the second day even worse than the first day.
This in turn affected the battle on the third day, making the morale and combat effectiveness of Luo Lin's army even worse on the third day.
In this way, a very vicious cycle is formed.
Morale is poor, so combat effectiveness becomes low, and combat effectiveness becomes low. The battle with the Britannia Army will be poor, and the Britannia Army will be suppressed, and being suppressed by the Britannia Army will make morale worse.
…
Barr and the others naturally knew that the biggest problem with their troops now was that their morale was too low. If they could boost their morale, they could give full play to their strength advantage and overwhelm the Britannia army.
Therefore, during these 11 days, the generals headed by Barr were thinking all the time about how to boost the morale of the entire army.
During these 11 days, Barr and the others tried many methods, but all of them ended in failure without exception.
Barr and the others could only watch helplessly as the morale of the troops under his command became lower and lower, and they were increasingly unable to display their due combat effectiveness, and were increasingly suppressed by the Britannia army.
In today's battle, because the morale was too low, the troops almost collapsed. The Britannia Army even almost reached the Luo Lin Army's main formation several times.
Thanks to Balta's strong command and commanding ability, the collapse that almost happened today was finally contained and the waves of Britannia troops that were about to enter the formation were repelled.
If the Britannia Army only slightly suppressed the Luo Lin Army on the first day of the battle, then now the Britannia Army can be said to have completely suppressed the Luo Lin Army!
Today, the 11th day of the battle, was a complete one-sided massacre. The demoralized Luo Lin army had no power to fight back.
Barr also knew very well that, as Denis said just now, judging from this situation, if they don't think of ways to boost the morale of the entire army, it is very likely that they will be defeated by Britannia who is now full of morale tomorrow.
The Ya army was defeated.
After Denis had just finished reporting to Barr, Leo, who was sitting next to Denis, also said in a deep voice:
"I just inspected all parts of the camp. How can I put it...all the soldiers are in a very low mood now, and the expressions on everyone's faces are numb and panicked. To be honest, our troops have not collapsed yet.
It can already be regarded as a miracle..."
As soon as Leo said these words, his and Denis's expressions became even more ugly.
However, Barr's expression still didn't change much, and he still looked indifferent.
"The only problem the entire army has now is low morale, and it is in urgent need of boosting morale." Barr said in a calm tone, "As long as morale can be boosted, all the problems now can be easily solved."
"But the problem is..." Denis said in a low tone, "We can't think of any way to restore the morale of the soldiers now..."
"Is there any way..."
After Barr muttered, the corners of his mouth suddenly turned up slightly, and then he whispered in a self-deprecating tone:
"What should we do to restore the morale and fighting spirit of the soldiers and defeat Albert and Allen..."
Barr's discouraging words made the atmosphere in the entire military tent become more solemn and depressed...
Both Denis and Leo also closed their mouths tightly at this time and did not say a word.
It's not that they don't want to speak, but that neither of them know what to say at this time...
After a while, Barr whispered:
"Okay, you two should go out now...let me be quiet..."
After listening to Barr's words, Denis and Leo looked at each other in a tacit understanding, then said "yes" in unison, and then left Barr's coaching camp one after another.
.
Now only Barr is left in the head coach camp of Nuo Da, and the furnace in front of Barr is still burning with blazing flames.
After watching Denis and Leo leave the camp, Barr turned his attention back to the stove in front of him, looking at the blazing fire, as if he was thinking about something...
After a while
"well……"
Barr suddenly sighed.
Bart's originally expressionless face suddenly showed a look of exhaustion.
The originally straight waist became more and more curved with Barr's sigh.
At this time, Barr had lost his usual majestic appearance. He now looked like an ordinary rickety old man, with his back hunched and his face looking tired.
"I'm so tired... I really want to go home... I want to go back..."
Barr's tone was full of fatigue, pain, and a little crying.
…
Although Denis and Leo live in different camps, there is a section of the road that is the same, so they are walking side by side on the way back to their respective camps.
"Alas..." Denis, who was walking on the road, suddenly sighed softly, "Coach Bal must be under a lot of pressure now... Every time I go to Bal's camp these days, I can see Al in his camp.
That hand-baking..."
After hearing what Denis said, Leo's expression gradually became heavy.
"Can't it be too big..." Leo turned his head, looked north, and then continued to say in a deep voice, "Just one Albert is troublesome enough, and now there is also an Allen."
"One is Albert, whose military ability far exceeds that of Bal's. He has been suppressing Bal's on the battlefield. Unless he uses clever strategies and tricks, he cannot defeat him. The other is one of the most powerful generals in the former Frankish Empire. He is good at attacking.
And Eren, who is famous all over the world for commanding the cavalry and has the title of 'Cyborg'."
"Any one of them is an extremely troublesome opponent, let alone two of them together..."
"Honestly, in a battle of this level, the abilities of just a few of us are of no use at all. We can't help Balta at all... Although I feel reluctant to say this, the fact is
In this way... this battle of Feihai is a battle where Balta uses his own power to deal with Albert and Allen at the same time... against two of the top commanders on this continent at the same time, can Balta not
Feeling stressed?”
Speaking of this, Leo suddenly paused, thought for a while, and then continued:
"...No, it should be said that Baal has always been under pressure... Over the years, Baal has been working hard to support our Luo Lin Empire. Without Baal's painstaking support, our Luo Lin Empire might not
It must have perished long ago..."
As soon as Leo finished speaking, Deni sighed melancholy, and then said:
"Yeah... Thanks to our idiot Queen, who only spends money and enjoys herself every day, and doesn't care about national affairs at all. Thanks to her, in the 20 years since she came to the throne, the national strength of our Luolin Empire has been reduced."
We are getting weaker year by year, fiscal revenue is decreasing year by year, and rebellions are everywhere. The Britannia Empire also sees that our Luolin Empire is getting weaker and weaker, so it has frequently used troops against us in these years, trying to take advantage of our current situation.
The country's strength is weak and we can be wiped out in one fell swoop..."
"Without Baal, our Luolin Empire might have perished long ago... In the weakest period of our Luolin Empire, Baal has shouldered the military affairs of the entire empire by himself, quelling rebellions internally and defending against powerful enemies externally.
, rectifying the border defense. He is 68 years old this year. He could have retired and returned to his hometown for retirement. He is still fighting on the front line to support our empire..."
"In recent years, it can be said that the fate and future of the entire country has rested on Balta's shoulders. The pressure here makes me scared just thinking about it... To be honest, I am actually very afraid that Balta will
I can't stand this huge pressure... Balta... it's really hard..."
Speaking of this, some tears appeared in Denis's eyes.
According to the laws of the Luolin Empire, anyone who reaches the age of 65, whether they are civil servants or military generals, can choose to retire and return to their hometown. Even the emperor cannot force others to stay.
Barr, who is 68 years old this year, has long reached the age where he can retire and return to his hometown and relieve all the burdens on his shoulders.
However, Balta did not do that.
Even though he has long since reached the age where he can retire from the front line, Baal still fights on the front line, shouldering the fate and future of the entire empire on his shoulders.
Because he knew very well that he could not leave, he could not leave the front line.
Nowadays, the Luolin Empire's military personnel are withering, and due to the gradual reduction of finances, the military equipment is also becoming increasingly depleted.
Balta is the only general in the Rollin Empire who can compete with the brilliant generals of the Britannia Empire, led by Iser and Albert.
Therefore, Barr, who understands this very well, is still running around and fighting for the fate and future of his country to this day.
At this time, unknowingly, Denis and Leo had reached the fork, and it was time to separate.
"I'll see you tomorrow morning, Denis." Leo said, "Go to bed early and wish you a good sleep."
"Well, you too." Deni responded, then turned around and walked in the direction of his tent.
However, just after Deni took a few steps, he suddenly stopped.
As if he suddenly remembered something, Denis turned around suddenly and shouted to Leo, who was walking in the opposite direction with him:
"Leo."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Why don't we two make an agreement now?"
"Agreement? What agreement?"
"The current Battle of Feihai seems to be in danger. Let's make a pact between the two of us. If the Battle of Feihai is defeated, the two of us must protect Baal at all costs. No one on the Feihai Plain
Death, but Baal is the only one who cannot die. If anything happens to Baal, our Luo Lin Empire will really be over, so as long as Baal can be protected, even if we risk our lives, we will be there.
No matter what!"
After hearing these decisive words from Denis, Leo was stunned for a moment, and then laughed a few times:
Chapter completed!
