Volume II-8 Second Step Action
The dark night passed.
The warm sunshine once again sprinkled in this forest.
Today's weather was exceptionally good, and it looked like a feast for the celebration of victory.
On the walls of the fortress, the soldiers standing guard stood nervously and a little worriedly.
"They're back!" shouted one of the soldiers—his tone sounding lighthearted.
"The result...... It doesn't look bad......" One of the soldiers on the side looked into the distance, speculating on the outcome of the battle by returning the number of soldiers, though he wasn't particularly sure.
The cheers of the returning soldiers not far away began to become more and more obvious.
It's confirmed, the soldiers standing guard have been determined - this battle, they have won!
"Open the gates and welcome them back!, let's celebrate!" said the captain excitedly to the soldiers standing guard nearby.
Although the soldiers on the side had been standing on their posts all night, their fatigue seemed to have subsided a lot when they heard the news of the victory!
......
"Welcome back!" the commander of the fortress, who also personally stood at the gate of the fortress to welcome those warriors back, "who will tell me about the situation of the battle!"
"Yes, yes," said one of the centurions, excitedly, "there are many to say!
"No problem! Our reinforcements are coming soon, so when the time comes, let's share our combat experience with them!" said the fort commander to the centurion, "When the time comes, we will drive them out of here!
"Absolutely!"
"Alright, everyone, you're doing a great job!," said the fort chief with a pleased smile on his face, and then he turned to the herald next to him, "Let the cook cook something delicious, let's have a good meal, and celebrate our victory!"
......
After this victory, the soldiers inside the fortress were busy again - they were preparing for the next operation.
The day after the victory in the battle, reinforcements sent by the province also arrived at the fortress - which made the morale of the soldiers who were originally full of morale even higher!
The soldiers in the fortress can't wait to go to the battlefield and fight a battle!
The soldiers who came to support belonged to the Provincial Defense Corps.
The "Command Centurion" of the Provincial Defense Corps had a discussion with the centurions in the fortress and the fort commanders.
This discussion preliminarily determined the operational plan for the next battle.
The next battle will take place during the day.
In the next battle, the cavalry will take the lead - according to the plan, the spear cavalry will surprise from the flank of the enemy formation and directly destroy the "unknown battering rams".
Next, without the threat of an "unknown battering ram", combat will be much easier.
The infantry of the auxiliary legion and the provincial defense legion will unite and drive the remnants of the opponent's army into the cave and drive them out of the land by overwhelming numerical superiority, and if the other side still fights back, then these infantry will unceremoniously wipe out the invaders!
