Humanity as a species has been fighting since time immemorial. In order to survive, in order to reproduce, fight wits and courage. Those who win are given priority to survive and reproduce, while those who fail either find another way to survive or are completely deprived of the right to survive and reproduce. It seems that the law of the jungle is the survival of the fittest. However, the real progress of human society does not arise from human struggle, but from human cooperation. Everyone's energy is limited, and if you want to get what you need at a higher level, you can only cooperate with others in different divisions of labor, and then meet your own needs through exchange.

From this point of view, wars and strife seem to be boring cannibalism. But it is also wars and strife that make human beings yearn for strength even more, and make human beings willing to spend time studying power and strategy, and how to enrich the country and strengthen the army. This makes war and strife one of the driving forces for the progress of human society.

Unfortunately, where there is fighting, there is injury, and where there is injury, there is pain, and the bearer of the pain is ultimately human beings.

Henry had only one feeling at this meeting, and that was "tired". For the whole night, Henry didn't get a good night's sleep at all.

At first, it was difficult to fall asleep because of the safety of the army, but it was difficult to fall asleep later. As a result, in the middle of the night, enemies appeared in all directions, east, west, north and south.

The whole camp shouted and killed, and for a time it seemed that thousands of troops and horses were killed under the cover of night.

The old man behaved quite calmly at night, came out to take a look at the enemy at the beginning of the attack, greeted Henry, and went back to sleep. It was a completely thunderous posture, which made Henry very angry. One night, like a firefighting captain, he saw which side of the enemy was in serious trouble, and then ordered the army to go over and destroy the enemy. However, the enemy at night was strange enough, and the east, west, north, and south fought in a way that seemed to be immense, but did not cause any actual damage. Finally survived until dawn, the enemy began to withdraw the army, Henry planned to go back to sleep, the old man will be nervous again, and he will not let Henry sleep, so that Henry quickly sent an order to gather the dragon knights and organize the army to do a good job of defense.

Henry was completely confused, and the old man only told the Yellow Dragon Knight that something had happened, and then jumped on his seven-colored dragon and quickly disappeared.

Henry was confused for a while, wanted to go to sleep, but was afraid that something terrible would happen, his mood could not be stabilized no matter what, his spirit was highly nervous, and he couldn't sleep if he wanted to.

The soldiers below are also sleepy one by one now. Because of the sudden attack of the enemy, the whole army was in a state of high tension, and this state was not conducive to protracted combat. Fortunately, with Sofya as the banner to maintain the situation, the soldiers were divided into three groups to take turns to rest, and at the same time they were ready to go to war at any time, and the situation was slightly better.

"Young master, go and rest for a while, just leave it to me here. Sofya will come over to persuade Henry, he himself is actually quite tired, but seeing Henry's nervous appearance, he is a little worried about him.

"I'm not sleepy, I'm waiting for news from the regimental commander. You go and rest first, we can't both be so tired. Henry pondered in his heart that the head of the regiment must have happened in such a hurry to leave, and no matter how much Sofya persuaded him, he just refused to sleep.

Seeing that Henry was not resting, Sofya went to take a nap by himself, but he didn't dare to sleep too long, and soon returned to Henry's side.

Henry finally couldn't take it anymore, and lay in the tent with his eyes closed, his mind still thinking about what was going to happen next.

"If something happens to the Yellow Dragon Knight, there must be a terrible crisis in the grain and grass. If we do not withdraw our troops now, it is easy for us to mutiny when there is no food. Predictably, this would be a big failure. It was clear that the enemy had only bluffed last night in order to prevent our main forces from discovering their purpose and sending them to the rescue. It's also that I'm confused, why didn't I see the enemy's purpose. Although my security will not be affected in any way, if I am defeated this time, my prestige will definitely be greatly affected in the country, and I may even shake my position as the heir of the kingdom. If that's the case, what should I do? It's not really the time to think about so many questions, but why do I think so much? Hurry up and get some sleep, there must be a lot to do when the old man returns. The strength of the Yellow Dragon Knight is quite strong, and it is quite difficult to kill him. Maybe there's nothing wrong with the food, and I shouldn't be so worried. The other dragon knights will come over in a while, and I will have to preside over the meeting at that time, why am I so uncompetitive, I just can't sleep. ”

Henry was half-asleep in a state of tension. After a while, a female voice came into my ears.

"Henry, do you still have time to sleep now? Britney, the beautiful dragon knight, was very dissatisfied in her tone, and was glaring at Henry at the moment.

"The young master didn't rest all night, and just lay down. Sofya's voice rang out for the flag, defending Henry.

"Am I going to sleep? Look at my eyes, how big are the dark circles, how many wrinkles are there at the corners of my eyes? After a night of fighting, I just had time to rest, and you were called over, and you have the leisure to sleep. Britney didn't give up, she had to call Henry up.

Feeling that he really didn't feel fit to sleep at the moment, Henry sat up.

"Britney, you're here, don't be angry, sit down and talk. Henry was surprisingly calm, pointing to an empty chair beside him and speaking to Britney.

"Huh!" Britney sat down in her chair, looking puffed out and not saying a word.

"Don't speak now, I'll describe the condition of the enemy you've encountered. Henry seemed to be coaxing Britney, with a bit of mischievous in his tone.

"The enemy started attacking in the second half of the night, and when they attacked, the flames were blazing, and the balls of magic light flew everywhere, and the enemy shouted hard, as if there were many people killed together, and in all directions. But when you think about it carefully after the battle, although the enemy's attack seems ferocious, as soon as our two sides come into contact, they will not last long and disappear, and then they will come out from somewhere else, is it like I said?"

"What are you talking about? I don't understand. Britney's face was puzzled, and it seemed that she really didn't understand.

Henry thought for a moment and laughed.

"Blame me, blame me, it's that I didn't guess right. Tell me about your situation. Henry seems to have thrown in the towel.

"You guessed it right, the enemy did come in the middle of the night, disturbing my good dreams. But I didn't expect the enemy to fight so much, the soldiers of the Peacock Kingdom are really weak, and they seem to be similar to the ordinary soldiers of our Tianlong Kingdom. Britney said and covered her head, and suddenly said angrily: "Henry, you get up for me, I'm tired and have a headache, you sit here comfortably, you don't have a bit of gentlemanly demeanor, you get up and let me lie down for a while." ”

Henry listened to her explain the situation, thought about it carefully, and felt that it was exactly what he had predicted. Thinking about it again, Britney is not a general after all, as a girl, she was forced to become a dragon knight. It was too hard for her to think about issues that she was not interested in at all. Seeing that she let herself get up, she had to obediently give up her sleeping seat.

Britney lay down comfortably, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she prepared for bed.

"Young master," Sofya was about to speak, but was stopped by a silent gesture from Henry

"She's also tired all night, let her get a good night's sleep. I'm almost out of rest, so let's go out and see how things go. With that, Henry led Sofya out of the tent.

Outside the camp, the soldiers were already preparing breakfast after cleaning the battlefield.

"Young master, can you eat something too? It's not too early to talk about it. Sofya said as he asked the soldiers around him to prepare the meal. Henry looked at the busy figures of those little soldiers, and suddenly felt a little tears in his eyes.

"Or maybe it's the humble ones who are really tenacious!" Henry thought to himself.

"Young master, what is that in the sky?" Sofya suddenly reminded Henry at this time, and Henry thought that there was an enemy situation, so he quickly looked up and watched.

I saw a small red dragon waving its wings and flying towards this direction.

"That's the clone of the seven-colored dragon of the regiment leader, and it seems that the regiment commander has something to explain to us. Henry beckoned to the little dragon in the sky, and after a while the red dragon landed beside him and transformed into an old man.

"Henry, I'm going back later. Our convoy was under heavy attack from the enemy, and in order to protect the food, Tom Gretel, the knight of the Yellow Dragon, did his best and used the man-dragon fusion technique that damaged the body. Now that he has completely lost the ability to fight, I sent him back to China to recuperate. In this battle, our army lost seven-tenths of the supplies, and we may all have to live a hard life in the future, so you have to be mentally prepared. In addition, I have transferred the Blue Dragon Knight to take over the heavy responsibility of transporting supplies, so you don't need to worry. With that, the old man's phantom vanished.

Henry let out a long breath. "Fortunately, we still have three-tenths of the supplies to use, and it's really the way to go. However, how powerful the enemy is that he can force the Yellow Dragon Knight to use the forbidden art, this is really beyond my expectations. ”

The next day, Henry was busy dealing with affairs inside and outside the army, reducing the rations of the soldiers and consolidating supplies, which was very busy.

Early the next morning, Henry received a letter from General Walker, the content of which was actually very simple, and it could be summed up as "five days later, the two armies will be decisive." ”
