Volume 3: Shadow War Chapter 29: Cavalry Sabre
Avery slowly woke up, his helmet over his face, and he picked it up and put it back on his head. He yawned, his eyes sleepy, and he walked slowly to the camp.
In the distance, he saw his "comrades-in-arms". They were the "soldiers" of the Guards Regiment of General Atos. He, in particular, had gone through yesterday's battle, and he had become a squad leader, in charge of fifty soldiers.
He killed five soldiers of the Akron Yatin Parliament, repelled several attacks by warriors who had been from his fellow kingdoms, and captured the Xinma district of the town of Artemt, as well as the Otz district.
Avery looked at the rifle in his hand, he was a little unclear about the war...... But he always knew one thing, in the Akron Atyne Parliament, he had never cared about the relationship between the Principality of Castilipa and the Akron Atent Parliament, and he was unwilling to listen to any matter of the authorities' decisions...... He was concerned about the price of rice and grain......
Until he couldn't eat, and a child was starved to death...... He picked up the gun, and he joined the military ranks of a regiment of the guards of General Atos. Then he got the rice, and he got the barley bread...... His other child was not starved to death......
So he followed the general's guard, and although he had not seen the general, in order to have enough to eat, he fought fiercely with the army of the Akron Yatin for several days with his guns, and captured the town of Artemt, an important town in the north.
Now, he woke up sleepy-eyed and walked to the street shop......
He looked at the usually prosperous town, where the crowd looked at him in fear, he came to Daddy Aqin's shop, he saw a few "companions", he called them rebels until the Akron Yatin Council, but he didn't care at all, he only cared about the life and death of his last son......
When he came to Daddy Aqin's shop, he saw several soldiers from the General's Guards Regiment pulling Daddy Aqin, pushing around, and laughing wantonly...... And Aqin Etov is also known as Aqin's father, he is over sixty-five years old! He was not in good health, he was a little lame, so he was pushed so by the rebel soldiers, he was almost unsteady on his feet, he was just about to fall, and he was caught by another rebel soldier again and pushed against the other soldier!
Daddy Aqin was like a tumbler, being pushed back and forth. Avery scolded, stopping the situation. Tears were already oozing from Daddy Qin's eyes. Avery helped Daddy Aqin and yelled at the rebel soldiers around him, "What are you doing!" How can this be done! ”
A rebel soldier on the side looked at Avery and cut his mouth: "What's wrong! Can't you play around! I don't know when the regular army of Akronya will come! How many more days do we have to live? ”
Avery shook his head: "We are for the food, for the rice and bread!" We don't just bully people! Because we're men! Avery said the end, raising his fist in front of his chest.
Several rebel soldiers saw that Avery had the highest rank, the rank of squad leader, and the remaining rebel soldiers waved their hands, let out a dejected sound, and then left boringly......
Daddy Aqin tried to stand up straight, so Avery helped him and tried to help him back to the counter.
But Daddy Aqin pushed Avery away, and he didn't seem to need Avery for his kindness. He staggered back behind the counter. He was seriously oozing tears: "Avery...... I do not know...... Why are you messing around with them! You're a good boy, and you're one of them! Why! ”
Avery raised his fists and clenched his fists tightly: "Because my child is dying of hunger!" It's that simple! I'm going to eat...... My child has already starved to death and can't let the other starve to death! ”
Father Aqin shook his head: "You can't do this...... You're a man, do you know what it means to be a man? It means responsibility and responsibility, you can't join the rebels at will, and then say that you want not to go hungry! You're a man, you can go and earn a living, I'm a man too, my kids are hungry too, and I run a shop and a kiosk...... I didn't starve! I'm going to survive! You always have to look at the light ahead and keep going...... You can't, you can't just complain about your life and go to the rebels! ”
Avery yelled, and he raised his fist, "I can't!" I can't...... I'm starving! I can't starve! ”
At this moment, several rebel soldiers came to Daddy Aqin's shop, and a man who looked like a captain kept saying, "Your shop should contribute to our war!" Contribute some goods and food. After the captain finished speaking, regardless of the stop of Daddy Aqin, who hurried out from behind the counter, he ordered his soldiers to quickly search for the surrounding things and goods.
Daddy Aqin looked at Avery with tears in his eyes, and when the people were gone, Daddy Aqin wiped the tears from his eyes, and then he said to Avery and said, "Why don't you stop them!" I know you're still a man of conscience! Why not stop them! Because that captain's position is higher than yours, right! Is that right! ”
Avery didn't say anything, and just then, a hunchbacked old woman came to the store, and he saw Avery wearing rebel equipment, and she took a mouthful of thick phlegm and spit it in Avery face...... And constantly scolded: "Scum! Scum who does not recognize their ancestors! Rebel against the kingdom of your father and mother who raised you! Don't you know if this is an imperial conspiracy! The Empire has instigated us to go to war with our own kingdom, but you have fallen for the Empire's conspiracy! Too many people have fallen for the conspiracy of the Empire...... It's the Empire that is provoking us all this! You're like a fool! ”
Avery was furious, he was scolded beyond his justification, but now he felt very angry, he raised his fist and angrily shouted at the old woman: "I am not scum! I'm starving! I can't starve! ”
The old woman sneered: "The good deeds you have done, you have made this kingdom a purgatory!" ”
Avery was so angry that he left the shop...... Just after he left the shop, he vaguely saw a group of cavalry in the distance, and he did not see the outfit of the cavalry. Just as he saw it clearly, he suddenly discovered that the cavalry was the cavalry army of the regular army of the Akron Yatin Parliament!
Avery hurriedly took out his rifle, and as he loaded it, he felt half of his head chill, and he could only see half the world: he saw that the cavalry had reached his side...... It was his last look in the world......
……
Major Yapad Hoclay's nephew, Lieutenant Aikman Hoclaide, led fifty cavalry into the town as fast as he could, his sabre-men slashing down and killing a lone rebel soldier in front of him! Before the rebel could react, half of his head was cut off......
Lieutenant Aikman Hockey was sure that he and his men had taken control of the neighborhood. Because this lone soldier was the last enemy soldier they killed in this neighborhood.
The lieutenant looked at the lame boss and the old woman in a shop named Daddy Aqin. The lieutenant said to the two of them, "Don't worry, we're here to help you!" You don't have to worry about ......."
After Lieutenant Aikman Hockey finished speaking, Daddy Aqin burst into tears of excitement, and he walked out to Lieutenant Aikman Hoclyde and said, "Your regular army is finally here!" We've waited too long...... You don't know that these rebels are killing those who dare to resist them! They're simply not human......"
Lieutenant Aikman Hokride said, "Don't worry, we'll drive the rebels out of town!" We are only in the vanguard, and we have the army of the Akron Yatin Parliament behind. ”
Father Aqin cried and said, "Our life is too difficult...... There are several rebel teams here...... The leader of each rebel army claimed to be a general...... They act recklessly and oppress civilians......"
Lieutenant Aikman Hocride comforted Daddy Aqin with a few words, and he hurriedly ordered his soldiers: "The whole army obeys the order and continues to march!" Conquer the next neighborhood and take back the town of Artemt from the rebels! ”
After the lieutenant finished speaking, he moved forward as fast as he could. Daddy Aqin looked at Avery lying on the ground...... He said slowly, "Hey...... May your soul be redeemed......"
……
As Lieutenant Aikman Hockey rode through the streets of the town of Artemt, he saw that the buildings around him were in rubble, and there were scattered and intact buildings, but they were in ruins......
Lieutenant Aikman Hocride had been to Artemt, for the Akron Diet was still at peace, and there was no such fighting. And a snack called "Agaaga" in the town of Artemt is particularly delicious, which is a snack made with fried dough and fried muscle mixed with sweet and spicy sauce, which is also Lieutenant Aikman Hoklaide's favorite snack. That's why he often came to the town of Artemt to taste the snack.
But now, he saw the ruins of the streets, and he remembered that the town had been prosperous and tranquil before the war. Although the town of Artemt is not as prosperous as the city of Abercinka, the town also has the scenery of a small town, and it is still very peaceful and harmonious.
But since the first half of the year, everything has changed, since the sudden defeat of the Duchy of Casdilipa, the town of Artemt has almost become the most infiltrated location of the Empire. Everything seems to be burning...... The streets of Artemt are very restless. Finally, a few days ago, a decisive battle broke out between the rebels and the army of the Akron Yatin Parliament. The rebels numbered more than 10,000 people, so the town of Artemt was taken by the rebels at once, and by the time the news reached the capital of Apercinka, the town of Artemt had become a town captured by the rebels......
The lieutenant was very distressed, and he felt that the court should not be like this, and that war should not take place in this stable country...... But just as the lieutenant was thinking, his team was moving forward, and it was not known that a gunshot rang out from there! The lieutenant's horse was killed by a single shot, and Lieutenant Aikman Hokride fell to the ground in one fell swoop...... The lieutenant immediately came to his senses: they had been ambushed!
