Chapter 15: The Bloody Battle of England

My name is Jerome, I come from a remote mountain village in Noxus, my father and mother are honest tenant farmers, I have two older brothers, but they were both killed in battle, my father and mother spent half of their life savings to marry me a beautiful daughter-in-law in order to continue the incense of our family, unfortunately, I was forced to serve in the military before I had time to have a son and a half daughter with my wife. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info So, I, Jerome, stood on the tower of the fort of England as a soldier of the Noxian garrison.

Standing on the high tower, I can still clearly hear the sound of the enemy's rumbling horses' hooves and the roaring shouts of killing. At this moment, the flames of war were burning in the fort of England, and the smoke was rising, and the breath of death seemed to permeate the entire city. Arrows flew wildly in the air, dragging a long rain of arrows over my head like locusts crossing the border, and I saw a steady stream of Noxian soldiers falling to the ground, all of them my friends and my brothers.

I admit that I was scared, timid, I had never really faced such a battlefield, I wanted to retreat, but I did not dare to retreat, I knew that my commander was standing behind me with a bright knife and supervising me.

While I was stunned, I saw a soldier of Demacia climb up the tower, carrying a machete, his armor tattered and his feathered arrows stuck in his arm, and I knew that he had seen me, too, because I saw my own shadow in his blood-red eyes.

"Be careful!"

I felt like I was being pushed away by a terrible scream, and I stumbled a few steps, and when I stood firm again, the Demacian soldier fell from the tower, and where I was standing, there was a pool of blood, and in the pool of blood lay a man who I knew all too well, he was my countryman, my good brother, and he had a Gon steel knife in his chest, and blood was running down the hole where the steel knife was inserted.

I know he saved me.

"Jegail!" I ran to him shouting his name, he didn't speak, maybe he couldn't speak, he grinned at me, and then he died.

The peonies of England, which should have been in full bloom, were suddenly scattered all over the ground in the sound of horses' hooves, with swords and swords, horns and drums, and blood and drifting. The enemy whizzed past me with his sword, and a drop of my companion's blood fell down my face with the blade, and my eyes turned red, and I should have been a warrior like everyone else, and left my last back in the sun. But I didn't, I chose to run away.

"Dare to run away?......"

Behind me came the invective of the commander and the sound of a sharp sword unsheathed, and my neck was cold and I fell to the ground. In a trance, I seemed to hear my wife's Wu Nong's soft words, saw the crescent moon after the weeping willows, smelled the lotus fragrance that we accidentally startled when we were boating that year, I couldn't die, go home, go home, I closed my eyes on the yellow sand in my apprehension, leaving a trace of desert smoke in my memory.

"I'm waiting for you in hell."

In the autumn of the forty-seventh year of the reign of Grace II, under the city of Fort England, the sun was rising, the fog had not yet dissipated, and the Demacian army, which had been silent for several days, was dispatched.

There are 20,000 dreadnought vanguard regiments, 5,000 dragoon regiments, and 15,000 Mir border troops, a total of 40,000 red leather armor troops, just like the maple forest in the autumn colors, fiery and red.

The yin wind lined up, the yellow sand rolled up the charred flags, in the long sand, the smoking wood emitted a disgusting stench, a few vultures hovered over several corpses that had not been completely buried by the sand, several arrows on the corpses were still there, but the broken spear was still in the hands of the corpses, in the distance, the shouts of tearing and killing were endless, maybe there would be thousands more corpses tomorrow morning, the yin wind began to howl angrily, as if to wake up the dead souls.

The blood all over the ground stained the whole earth red.

The bloody battle unfolded in Fort England, and the armies of Demacia and Noxus fought each other without giving an inch, and both sides were red-eyed, the corpses were in disarray, and the blood pooled in the low-lying areas of the city.

On the tower, the Noxian army knew the hardship, but they were not discouraged, with the unique tenacity and courage of the soldiers to resist the impact of the enemy, the front team fell and the rear team immediately made up, waving the spear in his hand and stabbing at the enemy, the commander Sain's lead played a significant role, although the Noxian soldiers were already exhausted, but they were still able to crush the charge of the Demacian army several times their own again and again, like a magnificent and strong embankment tightly locked the tower of the fort of England, Despite the huge waves, he refused to take half a step back.

The battle lasted five hours, the sun was setting, dark clouds were screaming in the sky, thunder and lightning were piercing, and the smell of blood-red fish permeated the dead and noisy ruins. The wails and sword shadows that had just dissipated bloomed in the wind again, and the accumulated remnants were hideous and terrifying, and the thick aura was almost suffocating, Demacia had withdrawn its troops and stationed their troops in the valley two miles out of the city, and the remnants of Noxus had lost more than half of their troops, and the defenders on the towers were exhausted and resolute.

"Who is the enemy's commander?"

Leo lifted the curtain of his tent and looked in the direction of the setting sun in the west. Noxus was so strong that Leo didn't expect it, and the dozen or so charges he organized himself were defeated by the defenders on the tower, which made him look impressed by the Noxian generals who defended the city.

"General Yu, the general of the local city defense is...... Thain. The lieutenant in the tent turned around and replied respectfully.

"Oh? It turned out to be him? No wonder ......" Leo buried his head and looked down at the ground.

"Father, who is Sain?" Galen, who was beside him, asked.

Leo shook his head, staring into the distance. After a long time, Leo sighed: "The undead god of war - Sain, he is a monster, a monster who once left a painful memory for the soldiers of Debang on the battlefield. ”

"Hmph, fame and reputation abound." Hearing Leo's words, Galen's heart was filled with a hidden illness. Over the years, the last thing he could hear from his family's contempt was for his relatives to praise other people, and the competitive Galen took his sword out of the account, "I'm going to meet this person who is respected as the god of war by Noxus." ”

"Wait." Leo called out to Galen, and tied a chain mail made of iron rings to his small jacket, tied the red silk rope, and tied a dead knot: "It's autumn, remember to add more clothes, look at the blood stains on your armor, go and rest"

Galen's heart warmed, he stroked his sword and bowed, and bowed for a long time: "No." ”

As the night deepened, the moon hovered alone over the valley, and layers of mist rose in the valley, and the chill poured down from the sky, making people shiver all over. Piles of bonfires lit up the daunting faces of the Debang soldiers. The valley was littered with severed limbs, and the corpses were soaked in the moonlight, and even if the carrion on their faces had not been devoured, they could not distinguish their faces when they were alive.

"Alas......" Next to a bonfire on the small high slope, Leo heard the groans of the wounded soldiers on all sides, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Father, have something to eat..... Galen walked over with heavy steps, and handed Leo the flipped helmet in front of him, which contained the steaming minced meat that had been stewed over the campfire.

Leo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You eat, don't be hungry for your father." ”

"Father, you have taught your children that as a general, you should have a heart that is not subject to heaven and earth. Mount Tai collapsed in front and the color remained unchanged, the elk was on the left and the eyes were not instantaneous, today's small frustration, the father must not be discouraged, otherwise how can the soldiers rest assured? ”

Leo was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand and took the helmet tremblingly, "Lun'er, you have grown up and lived up to your father's expectations, father, proud of you!" ”

Galen looked a little shy about Leo's praise, he blushed and lowered his head: "Thanks to my father's teachings." ”

"Hehe......" Leo smiled with relief, and picked up a lump of minced meat with a dagger and put it in his mouth. After taking two bites, he looked at Galen: "Lun'er, can you live with the physical strength now?" ”

"Of course, the boy can lead the army to charge a few more times."

"Father didn't mean that, Lun'er, did you see the Dongming Mountain behind you?"

Galen followed the direction of Leo's finger, and ten miles away, stood a towering lone peak, the peak was covered with clouds and mist, the mountain path was winding, like a ribbon falling from the clouds, and the green trees grew on the mountain peaks one after another, with deep roots and lush leaves, like small ink spots, densely scattered on the ribbons, swaying slowly in the wind.

"See, father."

"Lun'er, you immediately led the 30,000 infantry army to pretend to retreat, and quietly took a detour to ambush that mountain. Two hours later, the rest of the iron horsemen led by the Father's Father went to attack the city......"

"No, no!" Galen's head shook like a rattle, and he said hurriedly: "Father, you are the commander of the three armies, how can you be in danger!" He also asked his father to lead the army to an ambush in Dongming Mountain, and the child led the troops to attack the city. ”

Leo knew that Galen was concerned about him, so he just waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Your task is to cut off the enemy's retreat when he enters the valley stream, and fight back and forth with his father, as for my safety, you don't have to worry about it." ”

Galen had already understood Leo's intentions at this moment, Leo was using himself as a bait to lure Sein into the ambush circle of our army, so as to annihilate this victorious general who was known as undefeated in a hundred battles in one fell swoop, and completely crush the military spirit of the Noxian defenders.

"Father, the child understands what you mean, but this is too dangerous, and the child can't agree to it anyway, and he doesn't think he will carry out such a military order."

"Galen! What nonsense are you talking about? Leo frowned, and his voice was extremely stern: "Do you know that you are a soldier, you are a soldier of Demacia, and what is the code of Demacian soldiers?" It's obedience! At present, the Fort of England has not been conquered for a long time, and our army's edge has been frustrated. Moreover, don't forget, there are hundreds of thousands of elite Noxus on the front line between Bandle City and Ionia, and if they are allowed to pull out, they will inevitably bite us back, and by that time, Demacia will face the catastrophe of annihilation, can you Galen afford to pay this responsibility? ”

"But ......"

"But!" Leo unsheathed his sword, the blade of the sword pointed directly at Galen, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle: "Galen, I warn you as the marshal of the Demacia Army, this is an order, if you dare to disobey, the army!" Law! From! thing!"

"Father......" Galen burst into tears and couldn't stop crying.

"Get out!" Leo scolded and turned his back.

"Father...... Take care, dear!! ”

Galen prostrated himself and slammed it three times. Then he got up, bowed to Leo again, gritted his teeth and walked out of the tent.
