"What, fire attack?" Shante suddenly realized, it was not that he didn't know the military common sense of entering the forest to prevent fire, but he had no choice but to venture in, thinking that the reinforcements would arrive soon, but he didn't expect the other party's fire attack to come first!

The north wind, to the south of itself is a river, and the other three sides have been surrounded by clusters. A puff of smoke drifted from the north, and the enemy lit the fire in front and back.

It's autumn, the air is dry, and the leaves in the woods are already a little yellow. The fire spread quickly by the wind, and Shante had already seen the skyrocketing fire, and racing against the fire in the woods was simply looking for death!

"Big Boss, let's rush out!" Denelson shouted, "It's a big deal, it's all death anyway!" ”

Shante didn't answer, he knew that he had to be calm now, the more anxious it would be, the more chaotic it would be, he thought about it and said to everyone: "Retreat to the river, quick!" ”

It is absolutely impossible to walk quickly in the dense woods of the south, which are full of intertwined vines and low bushes, which are completely different from when Higg fled for his life in the mountains of Lookouthorn Peak, where there are no such vines, only bushes.

Hundreds of people slowly weaved through the woods, smoking thick black smoke and heading south to the riverbank. The smoke is emitted by the low bushes and vines that are not completely burned, and there is a strong smell of decay, and under the bushes and vines that have been shaded by large trees for many years, it is also a hiding place for many poisonous insects or rotting corpses, and in the rainy season, a poisonous miasma can be formed. Now burned by fire, the poisonous gas comes with the smoke, disgusting and dizzy.

The sky gradually darkened, but behind the crowd was the flames, illuminating the "road" for everyone to move forward, and they came to the bank of the Marshall River with great difficulty before the fire arrived. The river was about forty or fifty meters wide, and on the opposite side of the river bank was a wide farmland, and several pairs of crossbowmen patrolled opposite He'an, and they all activated their bows and crossbows to the river bank on this side, and Shante and the others had to hide at the edge of the woods and did not dare to go out.

"Great Commander, there are more than a dozen people who have not come out of the forest, and it is estimated that they are gone!" Denelson said sadly.

Shante looked at the remaining eighty or so people worriedly, not knowing how many would be left when he forcibly crossed the river in a while.

"Brothers, I'm ashamed of you for not being able to take you out of the place of death!" Shante said in a loud voice: "Wait a while and we will force our way across the river, I have found that there are not many of us who can survive, maybe not one, but since we have chosen to be loyal to Her Majesty, there is absolutely no reason to fear and retreat!" Wait a minute, I'll be the first to cross the river, you guys will follow quickly, good luck to everyone! ”

The rivers on the plains flow gently, and most of these people would have been able to swim through them in normal times, but now there are crossbowmen on the opposite bank, and the fire is chasing from behind, and there is no time to cut down trees as auxiliary tools, and nine out of ten people will die here.

The crossbowmen on the other side seemed to know the common sense of half-crossing and attacking, and they no longer wasted their arrows, but only waited for Shante and others to cross the river.

Just as Shante was about to give the order to cross the river, he saw more than a dozen figures on the opposite bank rushing towards him quickly, directly attacking and killing the crossbowmen.

A wide curtain of water was erected behind Shante and the others, blocking the billowing smoke, and the wide river surface instantly stopped flowing and turned into a solid thick ice surface, and a person on the opposite bank shouted loudly: "Quick, we must all cross the river in five minutes!" ”

Shante didn't have time to think about it, and immediately ordered: "Our reinforcements have arrived, cross the river immediately!" ”

The more than eighty men who were dejected immediately came to their senses, and walked on the ice with each other's arms, and when they reached the other side of the river, the two dozen crossbowmen were slaughtered by the dozen or so figures. When Shante saw the last man walk up the riverbank, the wide curtain of water disappeared, and the frozen surface of the river became a slow-flowing surface again.

"Second Leader!" Just as everyone was rejoicing in the divine soldiers, Denelson cried out loudly, "Second Leader, you're back!" As he spoke, he stepped forward and hugged the person who shouted earlier, it was the second leader of this group of bandits, Hig.

Shante immediately rushed over, and when he saw Higg looking at him with a sneer, the strong swordsman couldn't help but shed two lines of tears and stepped forward to hug Higg tightly.

Higg looked at the disgraced Shante and Denilson, the soldiers who were not injured, and said with a smile: "Why are you so embarrassed? ”

Shante said heavily: "Blame me, not decisive enough!" Especially when I entered the woods, I was even more stupid, Martiel's death, and I was a little confused! How did you get here, how did you know I was trapped? ”

"I'm from General Kolenva!" Higg laughed, "I've researched, except for this forest, you have no hope of living, those three teams have been wiped out!" ”

Shante didn't speak, staring at the demon Higg, unable to calm down.

Higg said loudly to the dozen or so people, "General Rogson, immediately transfer according to the original plan, hurry!" Otherwise, the enemy will find out that we have penetrated deep into the hinterland, and we will be in trouble! ”

"Yes, young marshal!" Rogson stepped forward and shouted, "Assemble all at once!" ”

Eighty or so people, some of whom were sitting and some lying, were very consciously stood up and lined up at Rogson's shout, and even they didn't know why they listened to that guy, as if there was some magic in that loud assembly order!

"Big leader, second leader, are we going back to the barracks!" Denilson followed behind Higg and Shante as the team shifted, angrily saying, "I don't want to see this guy Kolenwa again, killing so many of our brothers, and killing Matiel!" ”

Shante also said to Denilson heavily, "Let the second commander decide!" ”

Higg laughed, "Why don't you go back to the barracks?" Let's go back to him and theorize! ”

Shante looked at Hig and asked, "What do you think of General Kolenva?" ”

"The talent of the marshal!" Higg laughed, "That's my opinion!" Decide, witty, brave, steady, sophisticated, hehe, absolute commander of the army! ”

Denelson asked puzzledly, "You still praise him for killing so many of us?" ”

"Denelson, from different angles, there are different views!" Higg laughed, "You hate him just because Kolenva asked you to be cannon fodder, right?" From your point of view, you're not wrong! The Great Chief's opinion is contradictory, is it true that Colenva killed so many of his brothers and yet won for Her Majesty? If I were General Kolenva, I would definitely let you be a death squad! ”

"Why?" Even Shante was puzzled.

"You are not a descendant of General Colenva, and the combat effectiveness of the team is not much weaker than that of other people's descendants, and most importantly, you are still a loyal friend of Her Majesty, and this friend will definitely agree to be cannon fodder for the sake of his Majesty! Hehe, if I were Colenva, I'd die laughing! I just don't know if the big boss is willing to be the captain of the death squad again for me, haha! ”

Back at the barracks, Colenwa led the Guards to personally welcome Shante's return.

As soon as Colenva saw Shante, he immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "Major Shante, congratulations on your great results. I will ask for credit directly to Her Majesty the Queen, to you and your subordinates, and double the compensation for all the dead and wounded. ”

"Mr. Higg!" Kolenwa then turned to Higg and said, "Thank you, Mr. Higg, for your help, and I will definitely ask Her Majesty for it!" ”

Higg smiled: "General, Major Shante is my friend, brother in life and death, I save him, I don't need Her Majesty the Queen and the general to admit it!" Hehe, besides, I'm not your soldier, and you don't need to ask for any credit for me! ”

"Presumptuous!" The guard beside Colenwa shouted, pulled out the knife with his hand, and just pulled out half of it, but he only felt a cold neck, and Snorlin's knife was already on his neck, and his face turned green with fright!

"Snowlin!" Higg shouted angrily and glanced at Snowlin, who withdrew the knife.

Colenwa was secretly frightened, and then said with a smile: "It's windy here, please Mr. Higg and Major Shante come to my camp to talk!" After Kolenwa finished speaking, he said to the guard, "Arrange for the magician to come and heal the daredevils immediately!" ”

In Colenva's military tent, only Colenva, Hig and Shante were left, and even the personal guards were evacuated by Colenva.

"What are you two going to do?" Colenwal asked straight to the point, "Does Mr. Higg have any desire to serve Her Majesty?" ”

Higg smiled and said: "Major Shante is the commander of our cottage, and he has been summoned by the general to serve, and now there is no one to manage the cottage, so I, the second master, have to take care of Major Shante first." Hehe, serving Her Majesty the Queen does not have to be under the account, the people live in peace and the rear is stable is what Her Majesty wants to see, I can also serve Her Majesty in the rear, and please support the general! ”

"Hehe, I'm afraid Mr. Higg isn't a thing in the pool, is he?" Colenwa smiled, "Sir is in the rear, Her Majesty will not be at ease!" ”

Higg was slightly angry, but still had a smile on his face, "Please explain it to the general!" ”

"Sir, you can't serve under Her Majesty's account, I'm afraid that Her Majesty has other ideas!" Colenwal laughed, "I'm afraid that when Arad also summons him, how should he respond?" ”

"Hahaha, General Coren is really fast!" Higg laughed, "If I say that I don't agree to Arad's summons even if I die, I don't think the general will believe it." It's just that my brother of life and death has already served in the general's barracks, and I ask the general, will I become my brother of life and death? The general withdrew all the guards, and I think the general himself knew very well that if I wanted to leave, the general would not be able to stop him, right? ”

"Happy, since Mr. has already spoken out, then I won't force it!" Colenwal smiled, "It's just that Mr.'s cottage is in my jurisdiction, and I want to form horns with Mr. and jointly contain Saknine, what do you think?" ”

"Hahaha!" Higg smiled, "With the support of the general, of course I am very happy, if the general has any needs, what our cottage can do, we will do our best to help!" ”

"Okay, let's work together and work together for Her Majesty!"

Higg smiled: "I have one more request, please grant it to the general!" ”

"Mr. Higg, please!"

"Most of the surviving daredevils have been injured this time, and I hope that the general will allow them to retire freely and be willing to stay in the barracks, so I naturally have nothing to say; If you are willing to return to the cottage, my cottage is also happy to support! ”

"You're digging into my wall!" Colenva laughed.

"There are only more than 80 people left of the 500 people, and they are all the children of the Gaodel cottage, no matter what, I have to give an explanation to the people of the cottage. Generals, they are all meritorious people, and I am doing this to let these daredevils save some blood, and also to maintain the clear rewards and punishments of the generals! ”
