Chapter 31: Parnes under Fire III.
After a battle, there will always be soldiers who have lost their strength, or there are few left, or the commander has fallen on the battlefield, and generally these lost armies will be reorganized or replenished to other units that have lost but can still retain their strength. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, due to the fierce fighting in the early morning, in addition to a large number of casualties among the soldiers, the Fourth Army lost a large number of commanders.
In addition to motivating the morale of the army, this behavior is also because people who can become squad leaders and squadron leaders are generally stronger than the soldiers below, and they can lead people to rush forward to save the situation faster and more effectively, of course, if the enemy is too strong, it is easy to lose.
And when Rod took Zakary Joanna and them to the camp to house these lost skirmishers, Joanna and Raphael were surprised to see that several of the soldiers of the nearly one squadron had fought with the two of them in the early morning, and it was obvious that the third wing, as the wing with the largest combat losses before, did not know how many units had completely disappeared.
For these soldiers who have been tested by the fire of war and are themselves the elite of the Fourth Legion, Rhodes knows that their combat quality will not be low, he just needs to tell these soldiers that he is their current commander, and that he can find him and follow him in battle.
As for more detailed instructions about the battle, it is only necessary for recruits, otherwise these recruits will always lose their minds and blindly flee around the battlefield in the face of brutal battles, and such people will always die the fastest.
"Yo, aren't these two heroic children in the early morning battle, why are you here and ready to go up and fight again?"
"Haha, I didn't expect to see you two children, your parents didn't arrest you ******, so the battle should be handed over to me and us adults."
After Rod finished his introduction, Joanna, who was standing next to him, saw the soldiers approaching. In the previous battle, Joanna and Raphael were only thirteen years old and were still children, but they performed better than their elite soldiers in the battle, which left a deep impression on these soldiers, so they couldn't help but laugh, they were also worried that the battle in the morning would leave a bad feeling on these two children, and wanted to regulate their emotions.
However, they also didn't expect that these two children did not have fear because of the brutal battle in the early morning, and smart people like Joanna and Raphael could naturally hear the concern in their words, not to mention that although these people were not in tune now, the two of them were taken care of by these soldiers in the previous battle.
"My dad took us away, and you see he won't let us leave him now." Joanna winked at a few soldiers, and whispered to Rodnunu, who was checking the wounded among the soldiers, and following Joanna's movements, the soldiers saw Rod's back.
"Uh, you're Captain Rod's daughter?" The soldiers were stunned, and turned their heads to look Joanna up and down a few times.
"Isn't it like that?"
"No, I just didn't expect Rod to take his daughter to the front line, but think about it, Captain Rhodes has the ability to teach such an excellent daughter as you." An older veteran patted the soldiers around him, "Okay, you boys are all dispersed for me, God knows when we will go on top." ”
Obviously, this veteran has a lot of prestige among the soldiers, and these veterans who have survived many battles will always be respected by others. So when they heard the veteran say this, the soldiers laughed and scattered and sat down on the ground to rest.
"These boys don't know how many battles they've fought, and they don't know how to rest and accumulate energy before the war." The veteran smiled and shook his head, turned back to Joanna and nodded apologetically, "You guys should also hurry up and rest, although I have always felt that you children should not be allowed to go to battle, but who made us big guys not have the strength to fight a good fight." ”
"No, elders, you don't need to say that, if it weren't for your fighting on the front line regardless of your own life and death, we little guys wouldn't be able to grow up happily to this day." Joanna bowed down to the veteran with a look of respect, and it was precisely because of the desperate fighting of these soldiers on the border that they had been able to live in peace.
"Hehe, the little girl is really good at talking, okay, you guys should go and rest, and rest more while you haven't been pulled into the battlefield yet, otherwise the enemy won't give you this time in the battle." The veteran shook his head and touched his chin, then turned around and found a good place to bask in the sun, and lay on the ground with a comfortable face squinting. These veterans who have crawled through the sea of corpses and blood will always find an opportunity to enjoy their lives, because they know that maybe the next time they will lie on the land.
"Joanna, let's go, let's find a place to squint, the proverbs of the predecessors are always infallible, and the enemy will not care if you have enough energy in battle." Zachary knew from the veteran's comfortable expression that he didn't know how many battles he had experienced, and he had long been downset about life and death, so he was still so indifferent even before the big war.
The sound of battle has been resounding in the sky above the city of Paynes, and the sunset in the west reflects the red sunset in the sky, just like the blood-dripping ground on the walls of the city of Paynes, so vivid, and so regrettable, in this city, life is as fragile and fleeting as the sunset.
As the battle continued, Joanna and the others heard the footsteps of the heralds in the surrounding camp from time to time, and then they heard a group of soldiers being gathered by their commander and left the camp, which line of defense was too lost to withstand it, maybe there was already a wall that had been broken in by the orcs, the soldiers in the camp guessed in their hearts.
The heralds ran into the camp to convey orders to these reserves more and more often, and the intervals became shorter and shorter, so that the tense atmosphere began to permeate among the soldiers in the camp, many soldiers had survived the previous battle in the northern city, and they knew that once the orcs attacked the city, they did not know how many soldiers' lives would be needed in exchange for a chance to repel them.
Originally, there were soldiers chatting and laughing there, but when the battle was really approaching, they gradually stopped their playing, some closed their eyes and rested against the broken wall, and some carefully wiped the long sword in their hand, or made sure that their crossbow was in good condition.
Suddenly, Zachary's ears moved slightly, opened his eyes that were pretending to sleep, and looked at the door of the camp, seeing Zachary's movements, Joanna and Raphael put down the long sword in their hands that they didn't know how many times they had wiped, and looked at the door with Zachary's gaze.
A figure appeared at the door, under the watchful eyes of the three, and hurried into the camp.
"Captain Rhodes takes the order! The city wall on the west side of Beicheng District is in an emergency, and the general ordered you to take the 12th Squadron of the Reserve Wing to support as soon as possible. The herald shouted loudly to the camp, and when he saw Rhodes nodding to him, he turned around and ran to the camp next to him without stopping, the urgency of the battle gave him no time to stop and rest for a while.
When the herald disappeared at the gate of the camp, Rhodes turned around and saw that all the soldiers under his command had gathered together on their own, and after carefully confirming that the soldiers were fully equipped, Rhodes shook the knight's sword in his hand, "The whole team runs forward!" ”
Glancing at the three Joanna Zachary Raphael standing in the ranks, Rhodes turned around and rushed to the thickest place with his motley troops.
