For the soldiers in Ryder City, today is a rare good weather.
Although the sun was shining brightly, there were no clouds in the sky, and it was even a bit unbearably hot.
But since yesterday, the human race has not fired any more cannons at this side. There is no need for everyone to continue hiding in the cave.
That kind of cave was dug specifically to defend against human artillery. It was so cramped inside that it was difficult to even turn around.
Once the sun rises and the heat comes, the temperature in the cave rises immediately, and is often seven or eight degrees higher than the outside temperature. The soldiers are like a steamer inside, sweating like rain.
Due to the high temperature and high humidity, clothes become moldy and food spoils very quickly. For convenience, they often just wear a vest and underpants, just to cover their bodies.
In addition, there are often more than ten or twenty people crowded into a small cave. The air in the cave is extremely polluted, with the stench of human sweat, athlete's foot, urine, mold, and rotten food.
The smell, all the flavors combined, can almost make you suffocate.
This kind of trench life has even become a lingering nightmare for Semitic soldiers, so much so that many survivors can still clearly remember the horrific situation thirty or fifty years later.
Some soldiers couldn't bear it and often ran out of the hole like crazy, only to be blown to pieces by human artillery.
Since yesterday, human artillery has stopped bombarding.
Therefore, early in the morning, bold soldiers ran out of the caves and stood in the sun, enjoying the long-lost sunshine and fresh air.
Even though the sun was getting stronger and their skin was burning, they still didn't want to leave.
These once proud, powerful, and arrogant Semitic warriors, warriors who once made mankind fearful, are now haggard and skinny, looking greedily at the sun, like a group of skeletons longing for sunlight.
Fiona stood at the door of the headquarters of the Fourth Caribbean Division, looking at their appearance from a distance. She was so sad that she almost shed tears. At the same time, she also strengthened her belief.
No matter what, the Semites must be liberated from the hands of the high priest~!
And it was this belief that led the true elites of the Semitic people, these men of insight, to follow up and fight against the high priest for a thousand years, constantly fighting arduously and arduously, even through fire and water.
It is precisely because of this that the Semitic people can continue to be passed down to this day without disappearing in the long river of history.
This is not alarmist.
Because, in stark contrast, are the barbarians in the north of Ruman.
The powerful Ruman Empire has been fighting these free and brave people for hundreds of years, but they have not been able to eliminate them.
But not long ago, after they were carefully managed by the lich, the entire group had disappeared deep into the mountains and became the dust of history.
At this time, one messenger after another passed by her and ran quickly to various parts of the city. This was also a good habit developed under artillery fire. The faster you ran, the shorter the time you spent outside.
, the less likely it is to be hit by artillery fire.
Fiona looked back and saw that Lorraine had finished the work at hand and was lazily putting his legs on the table, leaning against the back of the chair, squinting and looking at the map on the wall, saying something.
.
Next to him, Melun was cautious and talked to Lorraine. Ever since he talked to Lorraine, he seemed to have been frightened. He has always been in this state, and he was not at all like a brother-in-law.
Arrogant.
This made Fiona very angry. Originally, she was counting on her natal family to help support her, but looking at Melun's appearance, she couldn't count on it anyway.
She hesitated for a moment, and then walked back aggressively, but then she saw the tired look on Lorraine's face, and her heart softened. Then she remembered that she had rested for a while after arriving here last night. But Lorraine
Never slept a wink.
She thought for a moment, and then said softly: "Have all arrangements been made?"
Lorraine sighed softly and said, "Everything has been arranged."
Fiona asked: "What were those messengers going to do just now?"
Lorraine said: "They are going to send out invitations. Let's treat them at noon today."
He paused, and then added: "Hongmen Banquet."
Fiona was startled for a moment. As the girlfriend of a world-famous writer, she had naturally read this story full of intrigues and intrigues written by the Lord, but she couldn't help but ask: "Now that the war is so tense, what will those people do?"
Come?"
Lorraine smiled and said: "Don't worry. Mero is not a fool. Since I sent the invitation, he will definitely come. As the commander-in-chief, he has arrived. How can others not be there?"

The Semitic Kama Division has been responsible for the western defense line of Ryder City. Although it did not face the powerful Naian Army directly, opposite it was the direct line troops of Grand Duke Rumain. In other words, they were also equipped with a large number of artillery.
The gang of bastards also bombarded his position indiscriminately.
It is said that Grand Duke Ruman even issued a strange battle cry: "Fire at the city of Samarkand~!"
The bastards of the Eastern Legion opened fire like crazy one by one. Even the artillery fire from other directions stopped, but they were still firing.
This also made Karma, the commander of the Karma Division, extremely depressed.
Due to the continuous artillery fire and road blockage, various supplies could not keep up. Even as a commander, he could only receive a rationed food supply every day, and he also lost a lot of weight due to hunger.
Fortunately, it was a nice day and the humans stopped going crazy. Seeing that there was no danger, he got out of his hole and stretched out his limbs in the sun.
It's so bad these days, I can barely see any sunlight.
He lay on the grass at the door and slept soundly.
When he woke up, he realized that his stomach kept growling.
He couldn't help but frowned. Once upon a time, the leader of the division, who was so prosperous and well-dressed, woke up from hunger one day.
Karma looked up at the sky. The sun was still fierce, and it was only around ten o'clock at noon at most. The little porridge he had eaten in the morning had already been consumed, and there was still some time before noon.
He lay on the grass in a daze for a while, thinking about where else there was something to eat in the city. At this moment, a guard came to report and said: "General, General Melun of the Fourth Caribbean Division, please
You go to the banquet."
Karma was stunned for a moment, and then said with disgust: "No, they still have the heart to hold a banquet when the enemy is in front of them. These Caribbean people are indeed a group of auspicious people."
The attendant agreed, then pulled the messenger next to him and turned to leave. But immediately Kalma stopped him again and said: "Wait a minute. Tell me again, are they having a meeting or a banquet?"
"
The attendant was startled for a moment, then opened the invitation in his hand, looked at it carefully, and then said: "It's a banquet. Yes, it's a banquet."
Karma made a gesture of putting something in her mouth and asked, "Is it the kind where you can eat and drink?"
The attendant thought for a moment and said, "That should be it, right?"
As he spoke, he turned his head and cast a questioning look at the messenger next to him.
Karma saw his gaze and immediately looked towards the messenger.
The messenger was honest and said: "Yes, sir. There is food and drink.
Our grown-up said that he has seized a lot of canned meat from the human army. Some are beef, some are mutton. If you want to be vegetarian, there are also some mushrooms.
In addition, there is a lot of alcohol and cigarettes.”
After listening to his words, Karma almost drooled. At the same time, she also cursed in her heart: Damn it, these damn Caribbean people still despise meat, and even made some vegetarian dishes.
You bitch is so pretentious~!
At this time, the messenger continued to say: "According to what he heard, the human army is short of artillery shells, so they need to take a break in the past few days. It is rare to have a gap, so naturally we have to get together."
"There are not enough shells..." Karma was stunned for a moment, and then murmured: "No wonder they stopped firing."
Despite this, he was still a little uneasy. After all, the Fourth Caribbean Division was notoriously unreliable. Then he asked: "Are you just inviting me alone?"
In his heart, he secretly made up his mind. If it was just for him, Uncle Karma would sternly refuse him no matter what. After all, it was really scary for those disaster stars to catch whoever they wanted.
The messenger thought for a moment and said: "That's not true. All the division commanders and my family have sent invitations. Even General Mello has sent invitations.
It is said that General Melo has agreed to attend the banquet at eleven o'clock in the morning."
"Mello is going too..." Karma hesitated for a moment. General Mello is one of the few brave and knowledgeable people in the Flash Army who is also very lucky. If he is here, I believe he can stop those disasters.
The evil spirit of the stars, right?
He thought for a while and wanted to refuse, but those cans were really too tempting. He had tasted them once before. Every time he thought about them, his mouth watered.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Okay, I'll go."
The Caribbean Division is behind the battle line. No matter how hard they cheat, they can't let the human army bypass the defense line, right?
At half past ten, Karma patrolled the front line again and saw that there was indeed no offensive movement from the human army, so he stood up.
Because he was going to a banquet, he specially changed into clean clothes. He also invited a few trusted officers who usually flattered him.
Although it was a banquet and these officers could not go to the main hall, it was not a problem to ask the Caribbean people to get them some food.
When he arrived at the Caribbean headquarters, he saw that many generals had already arrived. There were also many guards standing guard outside the door, and the guards were extremely tight.
After Kalma arrived, he immediately greeted the generals warmly and joked with each other.
At this time, the attendants had already set up a long table outside, and then placed fragrant meat cans on the table. In addition, there were several bottles of red wine.
Although it was a bit crude, there were no white Seris porcelain plates to hold the meat, and there were no transparent glass wine glasses. And there was no white tablecloth on the table. But when the generals saw it, they couldn't help but shed tears.
In their memories, the last time such a banquet was held seemed to have been a hundred years ago, and they had almost forgotten it.
Everyone was already hungry, so they didn't care much at that moment. Without waiting for Merlot, they all stepped forward, picked up the cans and ate them. After two or three cans were all gone, they calmed down and then used
He wiped his greasy mouth heavily with his sleeves, showing his original polite and aristocratic demeanor.
One by one, they were holding red wine, burping, and started chatting, talking about their current situation, joking and so on.
At this time, someone shouted loudly: "General Mero is here~!"
All the officers stood at attention out of reflex.
Immediately, surrounded by a large group of soldiers, General Mero strode in. He just briefly greeted everyone, and then got into the headquarters to find Melun.
The soldiers immediately dispersed and patrolled back and forth.
A general looked at it and couldn't help but said: "General Mello, is this too cautious? We are behind the battle line."
Karma actually laughed and said humorously: "You can't be careful. We have so many generals here. If humans make a sneak attack and wipe us out, the Flash army will be finished."
After everyone heard this, they all burst into laughter. This joke was so funny that it was impossible for humans to escape our own tight blockade and run to the rear.
Someone next to me also added jokingly: "Then they have to grow wings."
Karma immediately exclaimed in surprise: "How can that be done? Then wouldn't they become birdmen?"
Hearing that pun-intended joke, the generals present burst into laughter again.
Karma was also very proud of her humor. She immediately raised her glass and drank it down in one gulp.
As the saying goes, when you are full and warm, you will think about lust, and when you are hungry and cold, you will think about stealing.
Not long ago, the generals who were still hungry and could satisfy their stuttering, after eating and drinking, suddenly found that something seemed to be missing around them.
They thought about it carefully and realized that they were missing a young, beautiful and protruding dance partner. So they began to complain about the simplicity of Melun's banquet.
As a well-educated nobleman, General Kalma did not complain with the ruffians, but smiled and sipped the wine. Although the wine was a bit sour, it was much stronger than vinegar.
While he was drinking and looking around, his eyes suddenly lit up and he found that not far away, there was a man in military uniform looking at everyone with interest.
Although the other party was wearing a large military uniform, and her face was covered with dust and smoke, Karma was also an expert in flowers, so she could tell at a glance that it was a woman, and she was also a stunning beauty with a slim waist, long legs, and indescribable beauty.
He suddenly became energetic, and first looked at his colleagues with disdain: These idiots just know how to complain, and all their eyes are fake, but they don't know that there is a stunning beauty next to them.
Then he held the wine glass and leaned over with a smile.
"Hi, lady, can I buy you a drink?" Karma came forward, put on a posture that she thought was chic, and said to Fiona.

Melo came to the headquarters and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw the young man sitting on the main seat with his legs crossed.
He turned to look at Melun next to him inquiringly, but saw him standing respectfully to the side, as if he was a follower. He couldn't help but said hesitantly: "You are..."
Lorraine immediately stood up, then stretched out his hand and said: "Hello, General Mello. I am Lorraine, Lance, Lorraine."
Mero couldn't help but be shocked.
Everyone knows the name of the majestic Flying Eagle God of War.
Although he sent Melun out to contact him, he really wanted to surrender his army, but he also had the intention of competing with the opponent in terms of IQ. Therefore, he did not formulate a substantive plan.
But unexpectedly, when Melun was sent out here, the other party had already responded. Invitations were also sent to all the generals.
You know, he has been thinking about this plan for five or six days. But as soon as the other party received the news, he responded immediately. This shows that in terms of IQ, the other party has already surpassed him.
Not only that, the other party did not give him a substantial plan. He knew in his heart that this was also a test of himself by the other party.
Therefore, he led his cronies over.
I originally thought that the person who dared to risk his life to sneak over would be at most a heavyweight general in the human army, someone like Red Archbishop Santos, which would be pretty good.
But I didn't expect that Lorraine would come in person.
This is the rear of the Flash Army, and it can be said to be full of dangers for humans. As long as they shout, they will never come back.
Frankly speaking, if he were in Lorraine's position, it would be absolutely impossible for him to take action personally.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Originally, he had a very high self-esteem, thinking that he just didn't have the opportunity, but once he got the opportunity, he would rise rapidly.
Unexpectedly, in terms of resourcefulness and courage, he was already far behind Lorraine.
However, he was also a straightforward and forthright soldier. Since he was inferior to others, he would admit defeat. Therefore, he did not shake hands with Lorraine, but saluted him and then said: "Hello, Marshal."
This subordinate attitude immediately won Lorraine's favor. No wonder he would rather fight with smart people than say a word to stupid people. Dealing with smart people means peace of mind. When doing things, it is also
Simply beautiful, without any sloppiness.
He immediately saluted and then said: "Hello, General Mello. Thank you for your righteous actions. You have saved countless lives, both Semitic and human.
Here, I personally guarantee you that neither Semites nor humans will let you down."
After hearing his words, General Merlot couldn't help feeling warm in his heart. For him, Lorraine's personal guarantee was more effective than the official guarantee.
He bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, sir."
Then he continued: "I have brought a company of men and horses, all of whom are trustworthy personal guards, to obey Master Hou's orders."
Lorraine immediately nodded and said, "Okay. Since the general said so, I won't be polite.
Time is running out now, and the sooner we act, the greater the success rate."
He paused for a moment, and then said: "Order your men to take all of them and tie a red belt on their left arm. Then spread out. Guard the main roads with the guards of the Caribbean Division. Once the preparations are completed, immediately
