Chapter 313: The Sorrow of the Little Soldier
"How long do you have to survive such a day......
While Dio and Eve were hunting down the mechanical birds and mechanical bats, several of the soldiers in charge of guarding the Mantes Empire started complaining. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After listening to the words of Soldier A, who was honest, Soldier B, who was wearing an eye patch, also nodded with approval on his face: "That's right, such a day is not a human life at all!" Even if the food is unpalatable, we still have to endure the loud sound of cannons every day! I really want to die......"
"That's right! Such a loud noise can be very damaging to the ears! ”
Soldier A said helplessly: "Although there are earmuffs and earplugs, those heavy cannons are roaring in our ears every day, and our ears are about to be deafened......"
"Who isn't like that!"
Soldier B said indignantly, "My ears have broken a lot, and I feel like my head is buzzing every day!" ”
The two soldiers looked at each other, sighed at the same time, and then smiled bitterly together.
While the soldiers on Malte's side endured the shelling and waited for reinforcements, the soldiers on Mantes' side were already physically and mentally exhausted.
Since all the soldiers on Malte's side were hiding in the sewers and cellars, the Mantes Empire's bombardment of the Taks fortress had little effect. However, since most of the troops were exhausted by the attacking forces in other directions, General Diks, the commander of the Mantes Empire who had no troops at hand, could only grit his teeth and let the mechanical legions storm the Tuques fortress with all his might, and concentrate the remaining soldiers at hand, and stick to the base camp wholeheartedly.
It is precisely because of this that when they can't fight and can't retreat, the soldiers of the Mantes Empire, who look at the Tuques Fortress and sigh, have their originally high morale constantly declining under the destruction of the sound of cannonballs.
Coupled with the occasional attacks by Helen and other outstanding students from Alice's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the state of the soldiers on the side of the Mantes Empire is actually far worse than Helen and the others imagined.
It's just that the soldiers of the Mantes Empire are well aware that the current situation is that their side still has the advantage, so they can continue to hold on. And the soldiers on Malte's side, who had suffered heavy casualties and were about to run out of ammunition, were about to lose their breath......
After shaking his head, Soldier A fumbled around his body for a moment, and pulled out a few cigarettes from a small pocket on the inner lining.
Noticing these cigarettes, Soldier B's eyes lit up.
Before Soldier B could speak, Soldier A threw him two cigarettes.
"This is the best cigarette I got from the logistics department, for those high-ranking officers!" Soldier A smiled and said, "Try it!" The taste is many times better than the cigarettes we usually smoke! ”
"Do you need to talk about that?"
Soldier B lit a cigarette and said with some indignation: "A small soldier like us can only stand guard here day and night!" And what about the officers! They all hid in the room leisurely, drinking wine, eating side dishes, smoking good cigarettes, and playing big cards! How can this gap between people be so big! ”
"Say less!"
Soldier A said helplessly: "If the gendarmes hear this, you will have to stay in a small dark room for seven or eight days!" ”
Speaking of the little black room, both Soldier A and Soldier B shook their bodies at the same time.
Although they hated the deafening sound of cannonballs, the soldiers were more willing to go to the honest sentry than the small, quiet "little black room" where the whole world seemed to be left alone.
Therefore, as soon as Soldier A mentioned the little black room, Soldier B immediately closed his mouth.
The two of them, who were silent at the same time, were just swallowing clouds and fog on their posts with a depressed face.
Just when the two of them were a little panicked, the trouble came to the door by themselves.
"Those two creeps over there!"
"That's the two of you! What a daze! ”
"Are they all deaf! I'm calling you two! ”
A middle-aged non-commissioned officer shouted and scolded under the watchtower for a long time before he caught the attention of Soldier A, who had always felt that something was not quite right.
"Oops! Wouldn't this be the old Mars of the Logistics Department? How did you get here? ”
Soldier A hurriedly ran down the watchtower, quickly rushed to the side of the middle-aged non-commissioned officer, and nodded with a smile on his face.
"Bastard! I've been shouting at you two for a long time! Are you asleep? Why hasn't there been any response? ”
The master sergeant scolded with an annoyed face: "If it weren't for the fact that no one else was allowed to go to the watchtower except for the shift change, I would have to go up and smoke you two to death!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! You're talking about it! ”
Soldier A smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't it that the cannon is too loud, so we didn't hear your shout!" Forgive me! Forgive me! ”
"Alright, alright! Forget it! ”
The non-commissioned officer chief, who knew that these soldiers were living a hard time, did not hold on to this matter, and he said angrily: "Those leaders of the armored department said that it seems that there are enemies targeting those mechanical birds and mechanical bats!" So let's check it out! ”
"Huh?"
Soldier A directly turned into a black question mark face: "This, this, aren't those mechanical birds managed by the people of the Armored Department?" How can we let these little soldiers deal with it? ”
"Huh!"
Master Chief sneered and shook his head: "The leaders of the armored department said that until now, not a single mechanical bird or mechanical bat has been able to fly back to the logistics center, so they only know that the mechanical birds have encountered the enemy, but they don't know what happened there." That's why someone needs to check it out. ”
"So, why us?"
Soldier A was still puzzled.
"If it's not you sentries in charge of sentry, do you want our logistics department to go?"
The master chief yelled directly at Soldier A: "Stop talking nonsense! Do you go or don't! ”
"Go! Let's go! We'll be right away! ”
Soldier A hurriedly stood upright and gave a military salute to the master sergeant.
"Very well, the mechanical birds that have the accident are in the southeast! Go and come back quickly! ”
Master Chief left one last sentence and ran away as fast as he could.
Soldier A, who watched the non-commissioned officer depart, had to leave the sentry with Soldier B with a depressed face.
"Really, we have to do everything! It's really iron! ”
Soldier A, who was in a rather bad mood, complained to Soldier B as he walked: "Let's go, let's go, it's not that far from here......"
At this moment, Soldier A's eyes suddenly burst into flames, and he looked at Soldier B with a shocked expression.
At that moment, a silent flying arrow pierced directly into Soldier B's body.
Some of the splatters of blood even splattered on Soldier A's face.
Before he could open his mouth and was about to say something, Soldier B subconsciously stretched out his right hand to his chest before he could react to what had just happened.
There, there was an arrow.
Before his hand touched the arrow, Soldier B fell down.
Soldier A, who looked sluggish, subconsciously looked in the direction where the arrow was flying, and saw that another arrow was flying towards him.
"Luckily", the arrow just grazed the soldier's cheek, leaving a bloody streak on his face.
Subconsciously stretched out his hand to his face, and felt a tingling pain in the soldier's armor on his face, and immediately went crazy.
"Help, help!"
Just as Soldier A, who had a nervous breakdown, ran back to the barracks with a frantic face, Shiva in the distance slowly put down the longbow in his hand.
"Mission, done."
