The rays of light are shining, and the battle flag is flying.

Major Shandel, the garrison of Vorne County, rubbed his eyes hard.

The garrison troops of each county either used a white background and a red patterned flag or a green background. The army using dark blue flags only had a rebel army in Tiefeng County in Xinkendi, and there was no semicolon.

The door was knocked open.

Shandell jumped at the saber hanging on the hanger.

But the person who broke into the bedroom did not shout "Surrender and not kill", but reported in a crying voice: "No! Major! The rebels are here! The rebels are on the wall!"

Shandell threw away the saber when he heard the sound, picked up his pants with his back hand, and lifted his legs into it.

"I saw it!" the major replied in a deep voice, and then sternly scolded the visitor: "Decoration! Lieutenant Majiya!"

The lieutenant who was named shivered for a moment, stood attentively, and saluted.

During the previous battle to suppress Tiefeng County, the entire garrison of Vorne County was wiped out, and the original officer regiment was swept away.

Thanks to the rebels, when the Xinkendi Legion headquarters rebuilt the Vorne County garrison, a large number of appointed officers had to be hired to fill the command level - and raise military expenses by the way.

It was during this expansion of the army that Matiya Pal was "lucky" to join the officer class. Because he donated a lot of money, he was even directly appointed as a lieutenant.

Shandel doesn't know much about this subordinate's resume.

But the major knew Lieutenant Majiya's ability very well.

So Major Shandell didn't want to waste saliva with a guy who used money to buy officials, so he asked the latter directly: "Where is Captain Qiuke?"

Ma Jiya shook her head desperately: "No...I don't know."

Shandell was in a big fire. Qiuke was the only official officer in the city except him, and he was the major's deputy. If you can't contact Captain Qiuke, it would be like the command system being halfway broken.

"Who is on the night tonight?" asked again.

Ma Jiya was stunned, swallowed, and lowered her head and replied: "No...I don't know."

An angry growl came from Shandell's throat. He meticulously buckled the last few buttons, tied his belt tightly, and picked up the saber from the bed.

"Let's go!" The major waved his hand, and without looking at the lieutenant, he walked out of the bedroom with great strides.

Outside the house, the garrison camp was already in chaos.

The alarm bell was clamoring as if it was urging death, and the sharp whistles were louder and louder.

The untidy soldier stumbled out of the barracks and rushed into the playground in a mess.

It was already dawn, but there were still people who shouted to light the fire. The ordnance sergeant wanted to issue ammunition, but did not know where the key to the arsenal was.

In the distance, the sound of war drums rolled like thunder.

Outside the gate, the defeated soldiers who escaped from the city wall were crying and slapping at the camp gate.

The sensational noise and the collapse of the sky and the earth hit Major Shandel who stepped out of the barracks.

Major Shandell suddenly had a severe headache: "How did the rebels be in Artemis? They weren't fighting Maple Leaf Fort? What did the guard posts do?! What did Skur eat?!"

"I don't know, Major." A faint voice floated from behind. Ma Jiya took the major's words as a question to him. He replied with tears in his eyes and trembling: "I don't know."

Shandell felt a little reluctant to see the lieutenant's miserable appearance.

"Gentleman." He said coldly: "Lieutenant."

Ma Jiya hurriedly wiped away her tears.

Major Shandell took the lieutenant and climbed the camp wall in two steps in three steps.

Looking at the sea blue military flag on the top of the city, and then looked at the sun again, the major suddenly woke up.

"Fuck." The major, who repeatedly emphasized his manners, couldn't help but curse: "The rebels of the heavenly slaughter, they came from Revodan!"

...

Major Shandell's judgment was not wrong, but it was incomplete.

Because not all the "rebels" who appeared outside Artemis came from Revodan, at least those who rode horses were not.

When the soldiers set out from Revodan used baskets filled with earth and stone to fill the trench and pushed the ladder to climb the city wall, a large number of cavalrymen who rushed from Fengshi City were waiting outside the city.

On the hill less than a mile behind the cavalry of Iron Peak County, Winters Montagne was also waiting.

The war had an immediate impact on the newly reclaimed land.

In the past, only a small part of the old colonies older than the Xinkendi province retained the city walls built to guard against the attacks of the Heds.

Now, in the face of the imminent threat of war, almost all towns have urgently added defense facilities in panic.

Even the settlements with only a dozen families were surrounded by wooden walls.

"Artemis" is a typical example.

She was born in a new era and grew up in peace. She has never experienced war and naturally will not be wary.

Therefore Artemis has no obvious boundary, and the stone and wood buildings extend outward from the starting point of the city, and naturally transition to the suburban farms.

But now, a high wall suddenly divided Artemis into two parts inside and outside the city.

The city wall is about four meters high and two meters thick, and is built by filling hay and clay between two wooden walls and then tamping it. There are wooden pedestals on the inside of the wall to increase the width of the city head.

Farmhouses and warehouses near the city walls were ruthlessly demolished to avoid being used by siegemen.

The builder also cleverly carried the water of the Anya River into a higher moat and upgraded the dry moat to a moat.

The original military camp located in the city was also transformed and reinforced, so that it has defensive capabilities and forms a "internal and external city" structure with the city walls.

In this way, it not only increases the depth of defense, but avoids the situation where the city wall is broken and the entire line will be defeated; it can also intimidate some residents in the city who are ill-intentioned.

However, in Winters' view, the various efforts of the builder only turned "very poor" into "poor".

The builders had hardly considered the situation of the siege carrying artillery, and various designs were designed to deal with the attacks of light infantry.

Even from the actual combat performance, Artemis's city defense facilities could not even cope with the raids of light infantry.

Looking at the city walls where gunfire flashed, the most famous spellcaster in the alliance tapped the hilt of the sword, and looked down from time to time to check the Nurellen bell in his hand.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Under him, Changfeng seemed to be contagious by his master's emotions, and he looked around restlessly, holding his energy to bite something.

However, whether it is human or horse in the accompanying guard, they all know that the Blood Wolf's Baoju is a bad-tempered and aggressive guy, so they all stay away.

Only Hou Deer didn't know the danger of Changfeng, so he gently whipped the gray-haired mare that he had distributed to him.

"Your Excellency." Houdel asked alertly: "Do you want to... come to the front line again?"

Winters glanced at Houdell, who shivered unconsciously.

The wind was also sniffing, and the poor gray-haired mare kept retreating to the side.

Houdel wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide it from his heart, but protecting the Blood Wolf was his duty, so he had to bite the bullet and continue to delay time.

"Your Excellency, before departure, Mason Baomin told us." Houdell did not dare to dissuade him directly, so he adopted a roundabout tactic and launched a moral kidnapping, saying pitifully: "He has no choice but to deal with you, but he has a way to deal with us."

Changfeng "Xilulu" exhaled a breath of heat. Although it was aggressive, it did not bully a little mare.

Winters was so angry that he laughed. He put away the Nurell bell, looked at Houdel, and asked in a deeper way: "Then tell me, why can't I go into battle myself?"

Hou Deer wanted to answer without thinking: "Of course I'm afraid that you will make something happen!"

But before he could say it, he realized something was wrong - how could the invincible blood wolf have any mistakes?

Since the blood wolf is invincible, the reason to prevent the Montanebao civil servants from taking the battle is not valid; if the Montanebao civil servants may die like ordinary soldiers, then he is not the invincible blood wolf that the soldiers of Tiefeng County firmly believe.

Hou Deer was puzzled for a moment and simply threw all the truth aside.

He lowered his head and whispered: "You don't know, just that time in Hegu Village, I felt that the sky had fallen."

"Which time?" Winters hadn't reacted at first, but the pain under his rib reminded him: "Oh, that time... it won't be."

"Not? As for! Too much!" Houdel retorted anxiously: "You don't know how scared I was at that time! I had a thought in my mind at that time, 'It's over, it's all over'. So are the other brothers, how do you say that word - oh, yes! All the thoughts are gone!"

Winters laughed in silence, and he patiently explained to the preparation cadets: "The army has a very complete system and will not collapse because of the loss of a commander. Even if I am really killed, the command power can be extended downward. Mason and Chelini can take over me to command the battle."

"Your Excellency! Don't mention that word!" Houdel covered his ears, his expression became distorted and painful, as if he was trying his best to erase the word "death" from his memory.

"Differ." Houdel shook his head desperately: "Different."

Winters stared at Houdell - he hadn't had such a conversation with his subordinates for a long time.

Without reminding others, Winters himself could feel that his position in the military was becoming subtle.

He was not like Andre, the soldiers fear Andre and wanted to please Andre; he was not like Mason, the soldiers were not afraid of Mason at all, but they loved Mason.

In his heart, Winters vaguely envied his companions because the eyes he felt were different from those felt by Mason, Andre and everyone else.

He did not doubt that his warriors would carry out his orders without hesitation, and would die without hesitation; but he also clearly realized that everyone could never get along with him as intimately as they had with Andre and Mason.

The eyes that were cast to him were not only full of respect, but also contained expectations.

People hope that the "blood wolf" in their eyes is exactly what they look like in their hearts.

He cannot be lively and happy, he must be deep and solemn. It is best to have a beard and bald, as if he was born with a majestic appearance.

So it has been a long time since Winters conducted a conversation with his subordinates with an equal personality.

Winters didn't want to destroy the rare opportunity for communication. So he asked Houdell in a teasing way: "Are you suggesting that Mason and Chelini's lack of ability?"
