Although it was only the middle of November, the breath of winter was already very strong, and the bitter cold wind swept across the battlefield, blowing on the blood-stained cheeks of the soldiers, and the soldiers, who were still a little tired, suddenly felt refreshed, the hands holding the weapons became tighter, and the light in their eyes became even hotter, as if they were looking forward to the continuation of the battle.

Carefree stood on the city wall, the cold wind blowing her magical robes grinning. After the battle just now, she had lost her initial curiosity about the war and replaced it with a fighting spirit.

Yes, most of the battles that Worry-Free has participated in since he went out to the present are personal battles, and most of them have to fight for the safety of their own lives, so it can be said that they are passive.

And at this time she is not alone, there are thousands of soldiers behind her, as well as conscripted mercenaries, and she is not fighting for herself, she is fighting for thousands of people to stay away from the invasion of war.

Thinking that it was her own battle that won the peace of the people, she was not so reluctant to kill, she only wanted to kill more demonic beasts now, and firmly held on to this city.

"Hey, there's still no end, what's wrong with this year's Warcraft, it's just such a fierce attack at the beginning, isn't this just a wave that doesn't even have a chance to breathe, another wave is coming!!" An old soldier complained to another bearded soldier.

"Yes, it wasn't like this in previous years, could it be that something happened to the Warcraft Forest?" The bearded soldier wiped the spear in his hand and replied helplessly.

"It must be, this is a fatal shock, if they continue like this, I don't know if we can still hold the city gate before the shift change." The old soldier sighed slightly and looked into the distance with a solemn expression.

"Am I really going to die here this year? No, I'm going to retire in two years, my son is almost 10 years old, and I haven't hugged him in person for years, maybe he doesn't even recognize me as a dad anymore! I don't know if they have been doing well in the past few years since I was not at home? The bearded soldier sighed deeply, a hint of hope in his cloudy eyes.

The old soldier patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "Hey, Tony, you'll be fine, as long as you hold on for two more years, you will retire and return to the main city to do an idle job, with your years of military exploits, you don't have a commander, at least you are a captain of the guard!" ”

Speaking of this, a bitter smile appeared on his face, and in a barely audible voice, he sighed lightly: "Hey, I've been here for more than ten years, and the above has long wanted me to retire, but where can I go after retiring, I am not familiar with life in the main city, even if my military achievements are extraordinary, but it is not suitable to be the captain of the guard at my age." ”

The soldier named Tony smiled innocently: "Even if you can't be the captain of the guard, it's not bad to go home and live a good life with your daughter-in-law with the state's subsidy!" ”

When the old soldier heard this, his eyes gradually became blurred, as if he was recalling something, and his left hand was still on the shoulder of the bearded soldier, but his thoughts were already drifting away, and he muttered: "Do I still have a home?" My family was killed by a Warcraft raid more than a decade ago, and even ...... None of the bones have been found......" said this, his eyes were already hazy with tears. "That's it...... That's it...... Let's live like this......"

Listening to the old soldier's words, the bearded soldier sighed in embarrassment, and then said: "Lawrence, don't be like this, don't think about these unhappy things, even if the family is gone, there are always a few relatives, and it's not bad to live with relatives." You are the hammer of our Ramil Fortress, who doesn't know that there is a giant hammer in the Ramil Fortress - Lawrence, if you retire, you will be loved by the people! ”

Lawrence shook his head helplessly, wiped the corners of his eyes with his rough big hands, and said in disbelief: "Our village is next to the Ramel Fortress, when the city was broken, the whole village was ...... Dead, the only one left is me, who is still fighting on the walls. My son was sixteen years old at the time, and if he hadn't died, he would have been as old as you! ”

After saying that, Lawrence looked at Tony deeply, and in these ten years, he witnessed Tony's growth, and in his eyes, he completely regarded Tony as his own son. He took good care of him on the battlefield, and now that Tony has been able to retire and get a safe and stable job again, he is happy for him from the bottom of his heart. But this young man, who has always been regarded as a child by him, is finally leaving him, and it is inevitable that he will feel a little lost and reluctant in his heart.

Thinking that he mentioned the sadness of the old soldier in the future, Tony felt very guilty, he hurriedly grabbed the hand on his shoulder, and said seriously: "Or you can go home with me, although my family is not a rich family, but the food is still enough, you will live in my house in the future, and I will be your son in the future!" ”

Looking at Tony's sincere eyes, Lawrence burst into tears, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and was suddenly replaced by loneliness, Lawrence forced a smile and said: "What nonsense, it's not that I have nowhere to go to delay retiring, when I saw the ruined village and the broken corpses of the villagers, I had already sworn in front of the creator god that I would die on the Ramil fortress in my lifetime, to avenge my relatives, and to save more people from war." ”

Tony has always been grateful to the captain of the guard in front of him, who has always taken good care of him, and now he knows his tragic experience and his persistent oath, and he admires this captain even more in his heart, he knows that he can't stop this lonely old man's will, after all, the oath has been fulfilled, and if he can't do it in front of the creator god, he will be punished by the rules.

Therefore, he could only tighten the old soldier's hand tightly, and did not say a word, but in his heart he had already made up his mind that he would do everything in his power to protect his safety in the remaining two years. It's just two years instead of the rest of the time, it's not that he's selfish, it's just that his parents at home are old and may die soon, and he not only has the responsibility of the state, but also the responsibility of the family. For this old man, the only thing he can do is just two years of protection.

Sanssouci stood not far from them, their conversation reaching his ears. Looking at these two soldiers, although one is middle-aged, he looks vicissitudes because of his beard, and the other has gray temples, so ordinary two people are dedicating their lives to the rise and fall of the country, what can there be in such a soldier's heart except respect?

Yes, they were just a small city defense soldier, they didn't have a prominent position, and they didn't have the strength of their own family, but they had reached their limits. The prince will have a kind of Xiangning!

This is the first time he has participated in such a war, and his heart is already exhausted, but these two soldiers in front of him have been here for decades, how can their hearts be relaxed?

It's just that exhaustion has long been replaced by numbness, and all they can do is to hold the weapons in their hands and fight hard, like a killing machine, facing the ferocious and unopened monsters, endlessly fighting endlessly.

sighed slightly, and looked at the corpses of the demonic beasts all over the city, as well as the human severed limbs mixed in, the wrong demonic beast tooth marks on the severed limbs, the flesh turned out, and the bones were intertwined, which was even more shocking.

The scene in front of him was intertwined with the conversation between the two soldiers, echoing in his mind for a long time, and he was very depressed in his heart, maybe this is war, only the sacrifice of a few people can exchange for the comfort of the majority.

At this time, the sound of the earthquake was even louder, not only because the distance between the demonic beasts and the city wall was getting closer and closer, but also because the demonic beasts that appeared this time were all huge in physique, and there was no messy variety last time, and there was only one kind of demonic beast this time, but the momentum brought by these dozens of demonic beasts far exceeded the thousands of demonic beasts that attacked the city before.

For the small black dots that are approaching in the distance, Wuwu is very familiar, and Wuwu has already seen their appearance clearly when he is about a thousand meters. Isn't this the same Earth Bear that he fought before?

Looking at the bears of the earth rushing towards the city in a long row in the distance, the sound of gasping around them came and went.

"Yes, it's a pack of Earth Bears! Oh my God, it's a bunch of Earth Bears!! A magician shouted in panic.

The shout woke up the people who were still in shock.

"Gather all the mercenaries in the city and bring all the magicians to the city walls!" The commander of the city defense army hurriedly gave an order to one of the soldiers beside him.

When the soldiers received the order, they hurried down the city wall and ran towards the mercenary gathering place not far away.
