On the 18th of September, Dane's army officially marched westward, and three days later, it was already deep in the desert, and it was only two or three days away from the wasteland pass. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the real war was actually fought very fiercely before Dane arrived at the pass city.

After entering the desert, nothing happened on the first day. However, since the next day, Dane has been receiving information that his supply lines have been attacked.

And the biggest loss came on the third day.

Wasteland II Supply Depot was attacked by sand pirates and burned to the ground. More than 100 soldiers of the garrison corps stationed in the two squadrons of Wasteland 2, as well as an equal number of civilians resting at the Wasteland 2 supply depot, were all killed. More than 200 corpses were stacked, and a large sign written in blood was erected next to it:

"That's what happened to the robbers from White Wolf Castle!"

It's intimidation, and Imu is showing off his muscles to the Hindlaire: I'm not that easy to bully!

I have to say that Imu does have a very powerful sand pirate group under his command. It may even be inferior to the red-turban sand pirate cavalry under Ma Long at the beginning.

These desert cavalry riding camels, under the geographical environment of this desert, really come and go like the wind.

At the very least, the garrisons guarding Dane's supply lines weren't a match for the sand pirates.

If it was a head-to-head battle, perhaps, the soldiers of the garrison could still go back and forth with those sand thieves, but under the home of others, it was really no match for the desert cavalry.

At this moment, Major General Paran, who was standing in front of Dane, lowered his head after reporting the latest situation, ready to be trained.

The general, who was burned half of his face by Kangri's batriders in the battle of Iron Nail Post, using flame-projection bombardment, also came with Dane this time. Among the generals under Dane's command, Palan's qualifications are the shallowest and his personal strength is also the worst. If it weren't for his good foundation, he had already obtained the rank of colonel before the start of Sindlaire's all-out war, and he also had the responsibilities of the chief general in several battles at Iron Nail Post, with his qualifications and achievements, it was really not easy to get the rank of general under Dane.

But this does not mean that he is not capable, Verina values him, and Dane is willing to value him, naturally because he is still capable.

In this westward expedition, Paran was ordered to lead the soldiers of the garrison corps of three wings, as well as 6,000 civilians, to maintain the supply lines of the large army.

After receiving this appointment, Paran can be said to have held back his strength, wanting to prove himself through this battle: he is not deaf, and he has not heard other officers pointing fingers behind his back, saying things like 'the most junior general is incompetent'.

Hearing these words, of course, he could have a seizure directly. Come to think of it, the general star hanging on his shoulder can scare the officer who dares to chew the root of his tongue on the spot.

But what's the use? If he can scare an officer, can he run and scare countless officers or soldiers in the entire legion?

That obviously doesn't work, and it turns him into a clown.

The best thing to do, of course, is to take the results seriously and make a record. In the army, a place that has always spoken with strength, only these things can really block those gossips.

But who would have thought that after marching into the desert, the army had not yet reached the pass city, and first suffered a loss on the desert. The person who suffered the loss was none other than the baggage troops that he Paran was in charge of commanding.

This made Paran very disgraced.

He was anxiously arranging his defense, and at the same time, he ran to Dain full of shame to ask for guilt.

Dane looked at the general in front of him in silence before letting out a sigh.

To tell the truth, the baggage troops could not deal with the attack of the desert camel cavalry, and the situation that the supply line was greatly affected had its objective factors, and it was normal that they could not defeat others, and it was not entirely Palan's fault.

But in Dane's heart, he still felt a little disappointed.

For Paran, Dane has great hopes for him, and this expedition has not honed the young general's intentions.

But it was clear that Paran had not been able to live up to Dane's expectations.

Hearing Dane's sigh, Paran's face instantly turned red.

"My lord, I'm going back and rearranging my defensive strategy now, and in the next time, I won't let the previous situation happen again! I am willing to make a military order, and if it cannot be achieved, I ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Dane waving his hand.

"Stop." "Don't make any too poisonous oaths, I don't want to lose a general because of this." ”

Paran bowed his head in shame.

Dane said: "The defensive strategy must be adjusted, but I won't blame you entirely for this matter, those sand pirate camel cavalry are really difficult to guard. I'll introduce you to a colleague who should be able to help you with your new strategy. ”

Paran stepped forward, took a thumb-sized copper seal from Dane's hand, and left.

Stepping out of Dane's marching tent and turning left and right at the place where the army was encamped, Paran found the man Dane said could help him.

That's a mediocre guy.

The face is not ugly, but it is not handsome either, it is the most ordinary kind; The stature is not too tall, nor too short, the most ordinary figure. Dressed in leather armor, there is nothing unusual about him in the army.

In fact, if Dane hadn't asked him to come to this man, and if he was standing alone in front of him at the moment, Paran was really worried that he would have skipped him at a glance.

The only thing that stood out from him was the rank of major on his shoulder.

The rank of major can already be regarded as a high-ranking officer in Dane's legion, and in the enlarged legion, it is difficult to assume the responsibility of a captain.

There are not many people like this, but in front of him, Paran is sure that he has never seen it before, and he has no impression.

Where did a major pop up?

"Hello Major General Paran, I'm Firmino, it's a pleasure to meet you." As Paran looked the man up and down, the man spoke first.

"Hello, Mr. Major." Paran nodded. Although he couldn't see anything unusual about this man, he didn't slack off on the person introduced by the lord who said that it would be of great help to the new defensive strategy.
