"There is no time to think about this now, General Jonas." Ryan cut the topic directly: "I came here with orders to form a small-scale army to protect Her Majesty the Queen and others in the name of a mercenary group.
Safety. This is Lord Luke's command."
General Jonas took the command talisman from Ryan's hand, checked it carefully, and said in a bitter tone: "The command talisman is correct, Ryan, I will try my best to cooperate with you who you want to transfer."
Ryan looked at Jonas's face, which was slightly gloomy. He thought for a moment and understood what Jonas meant. He didn't explain much and just said lightly: "Queen Catherine has made a statement. She will be with this person."
The city will live and die together!"
"I understand!" General Jonas nodded. His doubts were completely dispelled by Ryan's words. Since Queen Catherine is going to stay, it is very reasonable for Luke's most trusted Ryan to protect her.
At first, he thought that Ryan was going to mobilize elite personnel to protect Catherine from evacuating.
Jonas said to Ryan apologetically: "Isn't that right?"
Ryan patted Jonas on the shoulder casually, interrupted his apology, and said seriously: "We don't have many elites here in the imperial capital, and there are even fewer who have been on the battlefield. Once the front is tight,
Your legion will definitely go into the fiercest place. Whether we can withstand the orcs' offensive and whether those lovely warriors can survive until the end of the war, General, everything depends on you."
Jonas solemnly said: "I can't guarantee anything, but I will do my best!"
Ryan looked at Jonas and felt his blood boiling. The simple faces of the 60,000 warriors of Jonas's army quickly passed by Ryan's eyes again. It was these warriors who fought bloody battles that made people...
Seeing the hope of mankind's final victory gave the millions of residents of the Imperial City the motivation to continue. However, when the war is over, how many of these lovely warriors will be able to enjoy the joy of peace?
"Sir, the number of Ryan squadron should be 500, and the actual number is 500. Everyone is here!" Colin stood in front of the team and shouted to Ryan loudly.
Ryan nodded to him expressionlessly in return, and then said in a calm tone: "Return to the team!"
Colin made a beautiful turn, quickly walked into the group of 500 people, and stood in the first position in the first row on the left.
Ryan glanced at the neatly lined up team. Whoever he looked at, that warrior would proudly puff up his chest, because these people are the most elite warriors in the entire Jonas Army and can be selected.
Coming out and standing here has already proven their strength.
General Jonas is 100% satisfied with any of Lane's requirements, because Lane's team will directly affect the outcome of the entire imperial capital defense battle. If during the fierce battle, Catherine is unfortunately killed in a sneak attack, then how can the human side continue?
Continue to fight? Moreover, the stronger the combat effectiveness of Ryan's team, the more indirectly it shows that the stronger the combat effectiveness of the Thunder God Fortress army is. After all, these manpower are drawn from Jonas's army, and they can help Jonas and the others to some extent.
Wash away the shame of defeat.
Most of the 500 warriors selected by Ryan were infantry, especially sword and shield infantry. In order to ensure the safety of Catherine and others, Ryan specially selected 150 tall warriors and equipped each of them with a sword.
Giant tower shield, this kind usually only has heavy
The shield that is only equipped by infantry is made of steel. When using it, knock the lower part of it into the soil, and then use your own body to defend against the enemy's attack. Whether it is a straight-line attack by a shooter or a charge by a light cavalry.
, it is difficult to harm the warrior behind the giant tower shield.
According to Ryan's idea, as long as there are 150 warriors holding ordinary square shields who hold the shields in their hands high and put them together tightly, there will be no need to even drop arrows or throw spears.
Worried. No matter what dangers are encountered, these 200 people should be able to protect Catherine's safety, unless the opponent uses a trebuchet that can launch more than 1,000 kilograms at a time or a magister attacks with mass destruction magic.
Of course, Ryan would not adopt this kind of defense method of waiting for death. He asked Colin and Thomas to select 100 shooters as a long-range support force, and also asked Allen to select 100 more spear warriors to ensure the security of the entire phalanx.
Melee attack capability.
According to Flanner's suggestion, Ryan is also planning to select a group of messengers from soldiers who are familiar with the environment of the imperial capital to communicate with the news. Therefore, according to Catherine, she will be at the royal auditorium in the central square of the imperial capital with the entire palace.
If the city coexists and dies, then Luke and Orlando will naturally place the command post near the royal auditorium. With this group of messengers, they will naturally have a better and comprehensive understanding of every detail of the entire imperial capital's defense battle. They can't be like Catherine.
The Queen couldn't say anything when she asked about the battle, right?
Of course, Ryan is also planning to ask Luke to come forward and invite several priests of the Church of Light from St. Nebiro Cathedral. If there are still magicians as powerful as Androkos, the magister who fought with him, he can help.
It was more perfect. However, considering that as a queen, Catherine would be accompanied by many royal magicians, Ryan gave up this tempting idea.
After a busy day, Ryan's squadron was finally full. Looking at his subordinates standing neatly in front of him, Ryan suddenly felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. It was an experience of making something from scratch, just like a farmer starting from spring.
After working hard until autumn, I feel like when the harvest begins.
"From now on, you are no longer soldiers of Jonas Legion, nor are you soldiers any more." Ryan said something earth-shattering, and the faces of the 500 soldiers were suddenly filled with surprise and shock, but they
No one moved, let alone anyone raised any questions.
Ryan nodded with satisfaction. It seems that the squadron he belongs to has good discipline. This is really a good foundation. "According to Lord Luke's order, you will join my mercenary group from now on and work as ordinary mercenaries."
As a soldier, I have a special mission, which is to protect the safety of Her Majesty the Queen during the defense of the imperial capital."
"The reason for doing this is to avoid trouble." Ryan didn't want to explain too much. He said it in the simplest words: "You only obey my orders and are only responsible for protecting the safety of Her Majesty the Queen. In the upcoming war,
Although Queen Catherine is not our military commander, she represents the emperor.
The majesty of the country, her safety directly affects the outcome of the entire battle, and should not be taken lightly in any case. I won’t say any more. You are all my comrades who have fought with me from the Thunder God Fortress until now. Your strength has been exposed to the flames of war.
Test, I believe in you, and I hope you will not betray my trust!"
"Swore to the death to complete the mission!" 500 soldiers shouted in unison, the sound was deafening, and it was no less than the shouts of the 60,000 soldiers.
"I am ordering everyone to set off. The destination is Lord Luke's mansion, and we will take over the security of Queen Catherine."
20 carriages lined up in a long row and drove quickly to Luke's official residence. Behind these 20 carriages, 500 soldiers of Lane Squadron lined up in four neat rows and marched forward. If only
That's enough for an ordinary 500 warriors, but Ryan chose a batch of heavy equipment such as giant tower shields, which naturally had to be transported by carriages, so there were these 20 carriages.
Ryan and Alando were walking at the back of the team. These were extraordinary times. Neither Ryan nor Alando was in the mood to chat. Everyone was not optimistic about the war that was about to break out in the future. Ryan looked at this indifferently.
What was once a bustling street is now lined with
More than half of the shops in the city were closed, and the streets were full of people, and most of them were civilians rushing into the city from outside the city. Seeing the mighty advance of Ryan's army, everyone felt the same way.
He ducked to the side and gave way to an avenue in the middle.
"I'm telling you, if your sister hadn't followed me, I wouldn't have bothered to care about you. I asked you whether you should leave or not. The teleportation array has been arranged. It will be our turn in the afternoon, but your sister will definitely not stay.
." The voice of a man next to him attracted Ryan's attention.
Ryan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged man wearing tattered clothes talking to another man wearing butler's clothes.
Ryan's heart moved, and he patted Alando gently. The latter looked at Ryan with vigilance. Ryan glanced slightly with his eyes, and Alando understood. The two slowed down and then quietly squeezed into the crowd.
, after making a slight detour, he came behind the two men.
"Haven't the army been mobilized to resist? Is it false?" asked the man in rags.
"You are such an idiot!" The man in the butler's clothes covered his nose in disgust and said displeasedly: "If your sister hadn't been waiting on me in bed and making such a fuss, I wouldn't have bothered to care about your life or death.
"Speaking of which, this man in butler's clothing
He looked around and said in a low voice: "Let me tell you, the adults in our family are already preparing to leave. How can we hold on to this city? However, the number of places in this teleportation array is limited. If it hadn't been for your sister's pleading,
Me, I'd rather bring more valuable things."
"What on earth is going on?"
"I said you're really pissing me off. Why do you, a fool like you, have such a beautiful sister? Did your mother steal a man?"
The man in rags was flushed, and he wanted to say something but didn't dare to speak.
