Chapter 61: The Northern Battlefield

"What's your name?"

"My name is Bard and I'm from Greythorn."

In a wide alley next to the street, the boy had stopped crying, bowed his head and answered somewhat quietly.

Lorain Hill looked at the boy and didn't say anything to comfort him.

"Do you hate that guy?"

"I... I don't know, it's true that I'm doing something wrong. His voice was a little low.

"Yes, you're doing something wrong." The girl does not deny it either.

When the boy heard Lorain Hill say the same, his head lowered even more, and he put his hands at his sides, feeling that it was not appropriate for anything.

"What are you going to do when you encounter this kind of thing in the future?"

"I, I'll settle every account, and I won't make any more mistakes."

"Have you ever heard of a man who never makes mistakes in his life?"

β€œ...... No. ”

"And then, what about next time, continue to stand there stupidly, waiting for a kind person to save you?"

β€œ..... I do not know. ”

Lorain Hill looked at the boy and suddenly realized Mr. Lu Xun's mood back then, that is, he was sad about his misfortune and angry with him.

She is not the kind of mother who wants to save everyone, the path of life is chosen by herself after all, you help a lot, sometimes you will accumulate grudges, and the other party will say that this is not what he wants, you forced it to me.

With that, the girl was ready to turn and leave.

"Thank you!" Behind him came the boy's shout, a voice that was a little muffled and a little eager, as if he was driving with the accelerator on the brakes.

Lorain Hill turned to look at the boy who wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say, and his face was flushed with urgency.

"If one day your heart is too uncomfortable to hold on, you can imagine yourself as an emotionless stone, which will be a little better."

Lorain Hill stepped out of the alley in his gray boots, his black robe fluttering up and down in the sea breeze, leaving only the boy's back.

-------------------

In the northern part of the kingdom of the west wind, stratus clouds roll through the sky, and only a few weeds grow sporadically on the dry Gobi Desert, and when the southern trade winds pass through the mountains and wilderness, they have long been filtered out of the moist smell of the sea, and they have become dry and mixed with the smell of dust.

The sun was hanging high, the scorching sun was baking the earth, and the soldiers marched in unison in front of the battlefield in a neat formation, and then stood still, the blue starlight wheat ears hanging high were blown by the wind, and the sound of the flag rolling was heard from time to time.

There are two camps on the vast wilderness, about 200,000 people in total, and the two sides stretch from one end of the Gobi Desert to the other end of the sky.

On one side is the coalition of nobles of the Zephyr Kingdom, led by the Duke of Rock Wall in the north, Wabuk, who gathered the armies of 37 large and small families in the north, and various banners fluttered on the array, these soldiers were dressed in different clothes, some wore chain mail, some wore simple leather armor, and a few wore all-steel armor.

They were roughly divided into districts by clans, each of which was responsible for a portion of the front, and in general, the armies in the middle and on the edges of the flanks were stronger, while the rest were slightly weaker.

Behind the Zephyr coalition were the private legions of Grand Duke Rockwall, dressed in copper-colored metal armor that reflected bursts of golden light in the sunlight. The private army of these rock wall dukes is the famous [Orichalcum Legion] in the north, and the armor on their bodies is made of steel mixed with orichal, although it is heavy, it is also very tough and extremely strong in defense. The spear and round shield in his hand are also mixed with a small amount of orichalcum, and their strength has reached the extraordinary silver level.

There is a rare orichalcum vein in the fief of the Grand Duke of Yanbi, which is extremely good for making armor, even ordinary craftsmen can easily make silver-level, but unfortunately the output of oylandite is not much, and the Duke of Yanbi has accumulated more than ten years of savings to save more than 1,000 elite legions.

The soldiers of the [Orichal Bronze Legion] are all above Sequence 2, which is also the proudest place of the Grand Duke of Rock Wall, relying on the rampant conquest in the north, he has accumulated a lot of wealth to support such a powerful army.

On the other side of the battlefield, the flags are more uniform, all of them are patterned with starlight ears of wheat, and the armor they wear is also made of steel, but from the corners there are many inconsistencies and burrs, it can be seen that most of this batch of armor has been rushed out recently. These warriors had dark complexions, most of them had calluses from long-term labor, and the clothes on the inside of their armor were also shabby, and they were white-washed.

The soldiers in front were armed with spears and shields, and they were lined up in an extremely neat phalanx, with only a small number of archers in the back, unlike the noble coalition army, which had many crossbows.

The Grand Duke of this generation of rock walls rode on a tall horse, looking at the rebel army opposite, and his gray beard cracked into a smile.

"I didn't expect that the rebel leader on the other side was still an academic." He had a funny and mocking look on his face.

"Wiliver, if you lead troops in the future, don't learn from the other party."

"Why, Father, I think they are arranged in such a neat line, and their combat effectiveness should be very strong."

"Strong shit." The old duke burst into a foul mouth, with a look of disdain.

"I just look down on these stupid readers."

"When Lao Tzu was young, when he fought the barbarians, the commander sent by the royal family was the academy from which Emenas graduated."

"It's really stupid to talk about combat plans, logistics maintenance, task assignments, and queue training as soon as you come up."

"Where did he think this was? Those big-headed soldiers are here to eat, and when you talk to them about glory, they only think about how to make money and how to prostitute women. ”

"Later, as expected, the people below didn't bother to pay attention to him, and after all kinds of orders were passed down, unless he was personally present, he would do so, and give the king some face, if he was not there, who would be stupid to do it against the sun."

"And then?" The old duke's son, Wiliver, asked curiously.

"Later, he learned to be smart, and asked the king for a team of overseers, supervising the training of the people below, arranging formations or something, which was barely practiced."

"It's a pity that there is no use for birds, as soon as you go to the battlefield, life and death are in an instant, who the still cares about the formation, it's nothing more than a few more cuts if I cut well, I was cut by someone, so I ran back, and in the end, as long as I maintained the overall front and slowly wrapped the other party in dumplings, I basically won."

"What if you can't beat it?"

"If you can't beat it, run away, silly boy." The old father looked at his son with a mentally handicapped look.

Wilevor was silent, turned his head to look at the army opposite, and asked for a moment before asking, "Then how did you win against the barbarians?" ”

"Although that commander's idea is too naΓ―ve, he is indeed a genius who can't stand others, with the strength of Sequence 7, he directly killed through the enemy formation, picked the head of the opposite leader on the tip of the gun, and then the barbarians fled, otherwise that big battle is really hard to say."

"That's why I said, I want you to teach your grandson well, send him to Emenas to study, don't be like you, thinking about all the bells and whistles all day long, strength is the only truth."

"And the rebel leader on the other side is, he doesn't have any big skills, he thinks he has read some books, and he is still engaged in some formation. You see, when the fight starts, the crowding will be chaotic all of a sudden, who will stand stupidly in place and be beaten in order to maintain the formation, hahaha. ”
