Chapter 408: The Military Flag and the Military Song
January 20, 328 in the continental calendar, is a day worth remembering in history.
On this day, the Capra Pass on the northwest border of the mainland held a ceremony for the change of guards, and all the Yus Regiments that were originally stationed at Capra Pass were withdrawn and replaced by a brand-new regiment that had been established for two years, and this regiment was composed of all Godsa teenagers, so he had a resounding name - the Youth League.
On the same day, Alan Kanter, the commander of the cadet regiment, officially received the customs documents and the list of supplies from the acting commander of the Capra Pass garrison, and the former commander of the Capra Pass Lieutenant General Moros had hurriedly stepped down from his post more than ten days ago, and rushed to Valen Pass to take over the command of the Northern Army with his own soldiers and the appointment documents of the military department. After handing over the documents, the entire garrison of Capra Pass headed south, leaving the ancient city of Okugu, passing through the city of Nice and heading towards Boulder. There they will be reorganized by the Guards, which is undoubtedly good news for the soldiers of the perennial Wubian, at least they will not have to work so hard in the future.
On the afternoon of the day when the defenders of Capra Pass withdrew, the Youth League held a swearing-in ceremony on the walls of Capra Pass.
At the ceremony, Harvey ascended the tower, on behalf of all the soldiers, to make a solemn promise to the regimental commander Allen, to the ancient city of Ocheng, and to the entire Godsa nation.
"From today onwards, Capra is back to the Gosa. As long as the flag of the Youth League is still there, the orcs will not want to step through the Capra Pass. ”
When Harvey burst into tears as he responded to the tsunami of the Warriors' Mountain, he had no idea what price he would pay for today's rhetoric in the near future.
The final item of the swearing-in ceremony is the raising of the flag. It was a military flag made for the cadet corps, and Allen, Isha and Havic racked their brains around the fire all night before designing it. The background color of the flag is white, and there is a green horizontal bar on the lower part to represent the sunset grassland, and on top of it is a wand and a long sword crossed together, symbolizing that the magician and swordsman will unite to fight to protect the grassland homeland. In order to make the flag more bright and eye-catching, Isha organized the nomadic women to spend two whole days embroidering stitch by stitch, especially the wand on it, and Isha herself made sure that the shape was exactly the same as the one Alan used.
"When you leave the place where you grew up, you look back, beyond Xiongguan, the homeland of the Gosa. ”
"Three hundred years of vicissitudes, on the banks of the Bisi River, artemisia grass in the sky, crescent-shaped sorrow. ”
"When history is about to be forgotten, young people become armies, heroes return, and heroes return. ”
"When the iron hooves of the orcs go south, the horizontal knife outside Capra Pass is immediate, and the battlefield is stained with blood. ”
"A call for companions to gather 100,000, sing war songs and join the army, the cold dew is the moonlight armor that eats the moonlight, and the orcs will not die and swear not to return. ”
"Think of the shame of your ancestors, sons and daughters of Gosa, and rise up to restore glory with blood. ”
"Wipe away the blood and tears on our bodies, and bear the entrustment of our partners, we must return to our hometown as soon as possible and kiss the girl who loves you. ”
When Stanny and Miranda hung the flag high above the flagpole at the head of the city as standard-bearers, tens of thousands of soldiers began to sing the military song of the Youth League in unison. This song is adapted by Alan and his colleagues on the basis of the very popular mercenary song of the ancient city of Aogubang, and the tune completely follows the original "Mercenary Song", but the lyrics have been greatly adjusted, becoming more passionate and exciting.
That evening, at the behest of Isa, the nomadic maidens formed a condolence group from the town of Tiesong and sang and danced on the bonfire-walled city wall, expressing their best condolences and respect to their compatriots with melodious singing and beautiful dancing.
The day after the ceremony, Alan left Capra Pass, but instead of returning to the ancient city of Ao, he rode the flying magic array all the way east, accompanied by Sergei and Fresnel, to the Elven Forest. After exchanging his strategy with the elven king Kronis, he obtained a bottle of life spring water from the elves with both soft and hard methods. If Alan wants to improve the combat effectiveness of the Youth League, the easiest way is to use the Fountain of Life, which is also the main purpose of his trip.
After returning from the Elven Forest, Alan lived in Capra Pass for a while, eating and living with the soldiers of the Youth League, trying to improve their equipment conditions and develop a rigorous training plan for them on the other. The weapons forged from the Iron Pine Town Forge are given priority to the Youth League, and the students of the Magic Middle School are given priority to join the Youth League. In addition to the two teams led by Harvey and Stanny, Miranda has begun to form an independent team of magicians.
In short, Alan put all his efforts into improving the combat effectiveness of the Youth League, so that when he returned to Aogucheng a month later, Steven and the others complained with some dissatisfaction that he was biased and made him feel like a stepmother.
"They are all a bunch of children, and I can't let them suffer a huge sacrifice because of the blood of the moment. ”
Alan did not stay long in the ancient city of Aogu, and went south again accompanied by Sergei and Fresnel. According to the custom, he spends a month in the spring of each year sweeping the graves in Yuewan Village, and this year is certainly no exception.
The days in Yuewan Village may be the most leisurely time for Allen, he doesn't have to worry about so many military and political affairs, he just needs to talk at his wife's grave every day, drink and chat with Uncle Alba, take little Alba to play in the mountains, and cook delicious barbecue for the little guy. When he has no sleep at night, he studies alchemy, and although the magic scroll has been successfully researched by him, it is only the beginning, and there are still many unknown spaces to be explored.
The life is monotonous and pure, which makes Alan like a sweet spring. Sometimes he sits on the hillside and looks at the peach blossoms, and his mind is in a trance, as if the military events that happened in the ancient city of Aogu are all dreams, and only the life of Yuewan Village is real.
It would be nice to be able to stay like this forever.
Alan's good wishes are soon shattered by reality, and when the peach blossoms in the mountains begin to fall, a black dot flies in from the sky to the north.
"Uncle Alba, where is Alan, I have something important to look for him. ”
When the black dot approached, he showed a clear face, it was a boat-shaped wooden raft, and the person who operated the wooden raft was a young magician, who jumped off the wooden raft and asked Uncle Alba who came out.
"Alan took little Alba to the lake to fish, and I went to inform him. ”
Old Alba didn't dare to slack off, and trotted all the way to report the news. Allen, who got the news, quickly rushed back, followed by little Alba carrying a long string of large white fish.
"El, why are you here?"
Alan recognized it from afar.
"Mercenaries have reported the discovery of General Nicholas Bernard's traces. ”
Elvis immediately told Alan in detail about the latest information he had.
"Let's go now. ”
Alan understood the urgency of the matter and decided to leave immediately.
"I think I can finish the grilled fish and leave, look at this little guy, the saliva is going to flow out. ”
Elvis tried to pull little Alba's face, but was nimbly dodged away.
"You're the one who's really drooling, right?"
Alan unceremoniously exposes Elvis for what he really is.
"Haha! I can't be blamed for that. You're not what you used to be, and there are fewer and fewer opportunities to taste your craft. ”
Elvis said, licking his face.
