Three volumes-18 hold the fortress
The soldiers guarding the fortress began to gradually lose their battlefield advantage.
Indeed, there were too many enemies - their own soldiers, with great help and skill, managed to eliminate some of the enemy in close combat, repelling their onslaught, and then the next round of attacks from the morale-filled enemy army!
......
"Hold on...... Hold on to ......" The commander of the fortress was on the building in the middle of the fortress, looking at the soldiers who were retreating one after another, and couldn't help but say, "...... again Hold on a little longer......"
In the midst of the sound of unknown weapons from the enemy, groups of their own soldiers fell.
The commander of the fortress, supported by a soldier on the side, struggled to the other side of the building and looked a little farther away.
His allies had safely retreated to the small forest by the side door, and some of the soldiers were also withdrawing farther away.
"Very good...... That's it!!" The Governor of the Fortress finally smiled.
"Sir, we ...... You can start retreating, right?" asked the soldier on the side to the fortress commander.
"That's right...... That's right!" replied the Fortress Commander softly, nodding his head.
"Okay, I'll go deliver the order!" The soldiers on the side immediately blew the horn to signal retreat.
He stood on the edge of the fortress building and looked around.
"Sir, sir, we may have to hurry!" the soldier, looking nervous—the enemy forces below had already broken through the walls of the city, breaking the defenses there, and rushing in like a raging tide during the flood season.
"Let the soldiers go to the building to defend ......" said the fort commander with some regret, "it's late, it's already a little late, I can only ......"
"What can I do?" asked the soldier, who was standing next to the fort commander, a little frightened.
"The rest of the time, perhaps, only a part of the soldiers will be able to retreat...... the fort commander said.
"Partial?" asked the soldier next to him.
"Yes. The Fortress Commander nodded in confirmation, "But...... It's a tough choice, and we haven't had much time to think about it. ”
The commander of the fortress was very helpless.
"Let the wounded soldiers retreat first. The Fortress Governor suggested.
"Okay! I'll go deliver the order!" said the soldier as soon as the commander of the fortress stopped him.
"What's wrong?!...... What's wrong?!" The soldier had absolutely no idea what was going on.
"Wait, things have changed a little bit now...... Looks ......" said the Fortress Chief, his expression a little disappointed.
"What do you look ?!......like?" asked the soldier next to him, anxiously.
"It's too late! the enemies have already surrounded several gates!" the commander of the fortress had just finished speaking, and he remembered the sound of the unknown enemy's weapon attack.
Bullets crackled against stones not far from the Stronghold.
"Danger! Come this way!" the soldier on the side immediately helped the fortress commander and walked towards the stairs.
The soldiers, all gathered in the middle of the dying building, to make the last defense.
"Let the soldiers who can still fight, protect these wounded soldiers. Just like the three hundred warriors of the pass as recorded in the history books!" the fort commander continued, "at least, at least we succeeded...... We managed to cover the retreat of our friendly troops...... Everybody...... What a beautiful fight...... All of us here are brave soldiers! Now, please...... Great work...... It is an honor to fight with all of you's brave soldiers...... Thank you for being able to work with me...... You ......"
Speaking of this, the prefect of the fortress could not help but shed tears.
