CHAPTER XLVI
Drink all the fruit wine in the wooden cup in front of you in one gulp. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info. Diem snorted violently. Under the stimulation of alcohol, an unnatural layer of blood red welled up on his face.
Dropping a shiny silver coin, Diem waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to look for it. After tidying up the armor on his body, he pushed open the wooden door that was already mottled and stained and walked out. The wooden door closed and blocked out the noise of drunkenness inside.
This is an ordinary small town located behind the fortress of 'St. John' in the Menian Empire. The tavern behind Dim is the only place in town where you can buy alcohol.
Dim is a mercenary. Or rather, he used to be a mercenary! His current identity is that he is an ordinary squad leader under the command of the 7th Infantry Regiment of the Menia Empire.
In the face of the frenzied invasion of the Desiks, the Meniah Empire mobilizes the whole country! Even their mercenaries, who have no concept of a country and are 'masters' if they give money, have been forcibly conscripted into the army!
For the Meniah Empire, the mercenaries had a lot of combat experience. They are the best source of soldiers who live a life of licking blood from the knife all year round. Thinking of the night he was forcibly recruited, the corners of Diem's resolute mouth turned up helplessly.
On that day, he and his friends went to the tavern for a drink as usual. Dim doesn't like to drink the kind of ale that is not sour, but more powerful than fruit wine! He likes to drink the sweet and sour fruit wine. His companions had already laughed at his taste more than once, but Diem still chose the wine as always.
He thinks that wine is the same as a woman! Everyone's favorite type is different.γγ Some people like to be hot and unrestrained, and some people like to be subtle and shy! There is no need to change your preferences for the sake of other people's attitudes.
The Desik invaded again, weighing on the hearts of all Menians like a mountain. This time the Desik people are menacing, and the soldiers are extremely fierce. It is said that the entire northern defense line of the Meniah Empire has been shattered!
The northern defense line was built by the Menians after generations of energy and time! From the day the northern defense line of Menia was formed, the Desik had never breached this linear defensive belt of numerous fortresses head-on.
Dim has been to the Northern Line before! Remember that time to help the army escort some logistical supplies, right? When he first saw the northern line, Tim was carried away by the spectacular scene he saw.
There are many strong fortresses, tall and thick outer walls, and countless pitfalls and obstacles outside the walls! At the time, Diem really felt that no one could break through this defense. At least, Dim felt that if he was replaced, no matter how many troops he was given, he would not be able to take down these perverted fortress groups.
After several days of snowfall, the gloomy clouds in the sky finally showed signs of dissipating.
The temperature in the air seemed to be cooler than before the snow, and Diem continued to reminisce as he walked back to the barracks. Even though it's a little dark, the town is still bustling! The streets were filled with soldiers dressed in MeΓ±a infantry armor, and occasionally Phyllis Cat Rider and Glenford Giant Rat Cavalry could be seen galloping by.
When a man drinks alcohol, he naturally talks more! Just when everyone was arguing and laughing and scolding each other, the tavern door was slammed open. A squad of heavily armed Menias soldiers rushed in! As soon as the soldiers entered, they surrounded all the mercenaries in the tavern with disdain, and one of the leading soldiers pretended to pull out a scroll of animal skins from his bosom and read it, and directly announced that all the people in the tavern had been forcibly conscripted.
Because of the drinking, Tim would not be able to remember what the soldier had read. All he knew was that he and his companions had become members of the Seventh Infantry Regiment of the Meniah Empire.
From a mercenary to a soldier, the change of identity once made Dim very uncomfortable! When he was a mercenary, Dim had developed a lazy personality. After all, mercenaries emphasize combat effectiveness rather than discipline!
In the early days, Tim and his companions were 'abused' every day! Yes! Mistreat.. It's called training, but Dim thinks it's abuse at all.
For example, in the middle of the night, a military horn suddenly sounded. They must assemble before the trumpet stops! It's a cold day.,It's really hard for these mercenaries to get up.γγ So, after the bugle stopped, their training boss directly poured buckets of melted cold snow water over!! This.. It's almost fatal! When he thought of the icy snow, Dim still felt cold.
Dim they were drafted and did not train like ordinary soldiers. Their boss simply taught them the importance of discipline and kicked them into battle!
Before that, we entered the battle zone. But Dim wasn't nervous at all! He even took leave and ran out to quietly drink a few glasses of fruit wine. What could be more enjoyable than a few glasses of wine? Chewing on the dried fruit presented by the tavern to expel the smell of wine in his mouth, Dim really admires the owner of this tavern.
Diem really doesn't need to worry! Because this nameless city has become the front-line temporary headquarters of the entire Meniah Empire! Not only was the 7th Infantry Regiment stationed here. Almost all of the largest wave of reinforcements from the Meenia Empire gathered around this small city! Tens of thousands of Meniya soldiers guarded the nameless city, and Tim really felt that he had nothing to worry about.
The cunning Desiks now surround Fort St. John, and they seem to have made up their minds to surround the fort and send reinforcements. The two sides entered the stage of confrontation after only a short period of contact, and no one dared to act rashly!
For the Desiks, if their invasion fails, they will face a decisive counterattack from the Meniah Empire; And for the Menias, if their wave of reinforcements is defeated, a large area of the Menian territory will be unreservedly exposed to the iron hooves of the Desiks!
Every day, skirmishes break out! Both sides are trying to find out the reality and details of the other. Both sides are preparing for the big war ahead. The next battle will be a decisive battle that will determine the future fate of the two empires! There is no room for sloppiness and carelessness!
The barracks are already in sight. Diem put aside the mess in his head and walked over with his head held high.

At the same time, in the distant sea, the sun is shining warmly on the calm sea. It is close to the equator, and there is no clear dividing line between the four seasons.
Standing at the bow of the boat, Xiao Yang's right hand tightly hugged Liya's slender waist.
Leah is docile and well-behaved! She let Xiao Yang hold her; Let the sea breeze blow her white hair. The smell in Xiao Yang's arms is so good, it is so reassuring. Leah couldn't help but indulge in it!
From time to time, huge shadows passed through the sky! These shadows are so big that they can block out the sunlight in the sky, and so big that even the ferocious fish of the ocean are shy away!
Those shadows are 'dragons' of different colors!
