Boulder Fort.

After reading the expedited battle report from Warsong Castle, the Wolf-Headed Overseer put it on his desk and asked Fingleton, who was standing below, "Do you mean that you want to take advantage of this surprise attack on Fort Glory and the defeat of the Sun-Chasing Mercenary Regiment and the Elven Army to directly promote the Blade from Squadron Leader to Wing Captain?"

"When the enemy is coming, the fact that the soldiers of the 3rd Wing are willing to nominate Blade to temporarily lead the Wing shows that he is expected to be in the 3rd Wing! I think there is nothing wrong with conforming to the wishes of the soldiers in front of me and turning Blade into a real Wing Commander!" said Fingleton.

"And the most important thing is that the Third Wing has just suffered a heavy defeat, and it was able to fight another turnaround battle under the leadership of the blade, which shows that his leadership ability is strong enough! In the two battles of conquering Fort Glory and ambushing halfway, the daily mercenary group and the elven army suffered heavy casualties, and even the two respective No. 2 people, a human named Horn and an elf named Brynn, were also awarded the heads respectively! This is really a great victory for our army! I heard that the daily mercenary group and the elven army could not continue to gain a foothold on the grassland due to the great losses, and they have retreated to the Nightsong Forest!"

"Taking advantage of the emptiness of the Fort of Glory's military strength, the blade can be bold enough to bypass the enemy troops on the front line of Warsong Fort and rush thousands of miles to attack Fort Glory, I admit that this kid does have vision and courage!" The Wolf-Headed Overseer smiled and said, "However, on the way back to Fort Glory, the enemy army was defeated through an ambush, and it was still the Red Flame Fire Dragon Mercenary Regiment that was defeated through an ambush, especially Francis, the Sword Master, who had more credit, right? With his little strength, I'm afraid he wouldn't dare to fight this ambush battle at all! The fact that he happened to meet Francis leading the Red Flame Fire Dragon Mercenary Group to help him only showed that he was lucky!"

"For those of us who have been fighting on the battlefield all year round, luck is also part of ability!" said Fingleton. "In addition, my deputy, Lord Pswan Bloodburn, saw that the cavalry regiment was now vacant and had already recommended a candidate to me more than once!

The wolf-led overseer's eyes couldn't help but shudder.

The discord between him and the current patriarch of the Wolf clan, Gu Suotu Bloodburn, is well known in the empire, and when he hears that Puswan, who is the eldest son of Gu Suotu, wants to interfere in the personnel arrangements of the senior officers of the Bloodtooth Cavalry Regiment, he naturally can't let the other party get his wish!"

The Wolf Leader tapped his knuckles on the desk of his desk, considering the pros and cons of putting the blade in the position of co-captain of the Empire's most elite cavalry regiment at such a young age. After thinking about it for a long time, he finally made up his mind, and said in a deep voice: "Blade is now a soldier of your Blood Fang Cavalry Regiment, if you, the commander of the legion, think that he is worthy of being promoted, then promote!"

"Yes, I will go down and arrange for someone to draw up the order for the Blade to be appointed and issue it as soon as possible!Besides, Lord Overseer, since Fort Glory has been occupied by our army, I suggest that the Splithoof Legion be moved to Fort Glory for garrison, and Fort Warsong will still be used as the garrison of the Third Wing!" said Fingleton.

"I don't have an opinion, I can do it as such!" said the wolf-led overseer.

Soon, a wolf cavalryman with an order to officially promote Blade to the rank of Wing Commander of the Third Wing rushed out of the Boulder Fort, and galloped towards Warsong Castle.

......

The village of Senkin, on the north coast, is a quiet and peaceful fishing village.

In the early morning of this day, the villagers who had just dawned and quietly woke up to the sound of roosters, got up and finished breakfast, walked out of the house, and were about to start a new day's hard work, when they suddenly felt the ground shake slightly.

The villagers looked up and looked out of the village.

I saw a puffing cloud of smoke and dust appear at the end of the road south of the village, and as the smoke and dust quickly approached Senjin Village, the villagers felt the shaking of the ground become more and more violent.

"Sister Stephanie, what's going on?" asked nervously as a little girl grabbed the hand of the village child king, a young swordsman with a long sword on her back, on the street of the village.

"Lucy, don't worry, I'm going to take a look!" Stephanie comforted the little girl as she gently pulled her hand away, and after a few light jumps, Stephanie stood on the bell tower, the tallest building in the village, and looked at the smoke and dust.

Immediately after, Stephanie's face changed in an instant.

She saw a knight on a warhorse rush out of the smoke.

No, it doesn't seem to be a knight on a warhorse! Because she didn't see the head of the warhorse!

As the knights got closer and closer to Senjin Village, Stephanie finally saw the knights' appearances.

Her pupils shrank suddenly,

These "knights" really didn't ride war horses, they were clearly orc subhuman races with a humanoid upper body and a horse's body on the lower body - centaurs.

"Enemy attack!" Stephanie understood something when she saw that it was an orc, and she reached out and grabbed the bell rope of the bronze bell in the bell tower, and pulled it hard.

When!when!

The bronze bell rang loudly, spreading the alarm throughout Senjin Village!

The villagers of Senjin Village were moved by the news, and they quickly returned to their homes, and when they walked out of the house again, everyone was already wearing armor and weapons. Knock knock

The armed villagers hurried towards the village square and began to assemble to defend themselves against the invaders. All of this they did seemed so well trained and organized.

It is clear that this is not the first time that the villagers have faced an invasion.

The attacking centaur warriors rushed into Senjin Village, and the centaur warriors who looked like a commander and held a halberd immediately roared loudly: "This village is Senjin Village! Warriors, kill all the villagers here and avenge the death of our colleagues in the Splithoof Legion!"

It turned out that this centaur unit turned out to be a unit from the Splithoof Legion.

After the Splithoof Legion moved to defend Fort Glory from the Battle of Castle of Song, they discovered that a small fishing village called Senjin Village on the coast of the North Sea was the starting place of the Daily Mercenary Regiment. Most of the villagers in Senjin Village are the families of the mercenaries of the Daily Mercenary Group.

Due to the heavy casualties of the Splithoof Legion in the Battle of Fort Glory, even the Legion Commander was killed in battle, causing the Splithoof Legion to be full of hatred for the Sun-Hunting Mercenary Regiment and bent on revenge. However, as the Daily Mercenary Group suffered another crushing defeat and was forced to retreat into the vast and boundless Nightsong Forest with the Elven Alliance, the Splithoof Legion could not find a target even if they wanted to take revenge.

After learning about the relationship between Senjin Village and the Daily Mercenary Group, the Splithoof Legion spilled its anger on the villagers of Senjin Village. The Splithoof Legion immediately sent a force from the hinterland of the southwestern steppe to the coast of the northwestern steppe after a long journey, intending to slaughter the entire village of Senjin.

When the centaur warriors stormed into Senjin Village, they were greeted by a rain of arrows fired by the villagers. The centaur warriors obviously didn't expect the villagers of Senjin Village to have such a strong force, and they were caught off guard, and the dozen or so centaur warriors who rushed in front fell to the ground in an instant.

However, the centaur commander at the head of the group was unscathed in the rain of arrows, and he swung his halberd away all the arrows that came at him, clearly a high-ranking powerhouse.

"Die!" the centaur commander unleashed his arrows, and his horse's hooves flew as he charged the armed villagers gathered in the village square.

Blood and flames enveloped the beautiful fishing village on the north coast at this moment.

Although the villagers of Senjin Village are fierce and many of them are accustomed to martial arts, the ordinary bandit groups on the grassland do not dare to provoke them at all. But in the face of the wolf-like hordes of orc regulars, the villagers were still far from being opponents, and in the fierce fighting, more and more villagers fell in pools of blood.

Armed with a longsword, Stephanie faced the siege of several centaur warriors alone. In a flicker, she finally slashed the throats of the centaur warriors at the same time with a brilliant sword move. When the tall bodies of the centaur warriors collapsed, there was also a deep wound on her back.

The sharp pain in her back made Stephanie feel a pang of weakness in her hands and feet, and she leaned forward and fell to the ground involuntarily.

Stephanie hurriedly slammed her sword on the ground, but she insisted on not falling.

She raised her eyes and scanned the surroundings, watching as the villagers she once knew had turned into cold corpses, but there was nothing she could do, only the pain in her heart.

Stephanie was suddenly startled, and the corpse of a little girl with a frightened face fell into her eyes.

The little girl who died was none other than Lucy, who was holding her hand not long ago.

Tears finally couldn't stop sliding down the girl's cheeks.

She gritted her teeth and roared in her heart: "Sooner or later, one day, I will definitely avenge you!"

After silently swearing an oath, the girl struggled to her feet, turned around, and broke through to the sea north of Senjin Village!

A day later, Senna arrived in the village of Senkin, which had been completely destroyed by the war.

After being defeated by the Bloodtooth Wolf Cavalry and the Red Fire Dragon Mercenaries, Senna decided to return to his hometown of Nightsong Forest with the remnants of the Sun-Burning Mercenaries and Elven Alliance, in order to make a comeback.

After Senna brought the remnants of the coalition army into the Forest of Nightsong and settled down, he hurried to the village of Senkin. Because the relationship between Senjin Village and the Daily Mercenary Group was not a secret on the grassland, he was worried that since the orcs had enough troops to launch a full-scale attack on the grassland, they were likely to pay attention to this remote fishing village on the north coast. For the sake of safety, he plans to connect the villagers of Senjin Village to the Night Song Forest as well.

As a result, Senna's fears became a reality!

Looking at the devastated village of Senkin, Senna went crazy and rummaged through the corpses of a young girl.

However, he did not find it.

There was a hint of joy in Senna's heart.

"Stephanie, where are you, are you alright?" muttered Senna, looking up at the low, oppressive winter sky.
