Chapter 286: The Rift of War (1)
It was late at night.
There was silence on the Great Plains of Hamp, the barracks of the Boer Commander were brightly lit, Ginny and Planck had gone out with the army, and there were still many soldiers in the barracks who were carrying out their daily guard work, and as the troops went away, the camp gradually quieted down, leaving dense footprints on the originally flat land. In the open space in the center of the camp were placed a large number of crossbows and arrows, which were urgently transported from the city of Boer, and the war required a large amount of supplies, and the production in the rear must not be stopped.
Galen did not return to his room, but sat down directly in the open space outside the tent, and some passing soldiers saluted him, and Galen nodded in acknowledgement.
Galen watched Ginny and Planck leave with the army, or soon, in the direction of the distant pass, there will definitely be a series of explosions, now the enemy has learned to behave, absolutely not camp in the pass, all the Roa soldiers are close to the direction of Loa City, rest outside the pass, if you want the trebuchet to shoot a farther distance, you have to advance into the pass.
There was a hint of confusion in Galen's eyes, it was the fourth night of the battle. Now the battle situation in the Rorschach Pass has become a daily routine. As long as Luo Yajun occupies the pass, they will immediately fight back. Again, the reaction on the enemy's side was similar. Even Planck, the toughest of warriors, had the first passion for war.
There was still no moonlight tonight, only a little sparse starlight, and the dark night sky, as if it was a portrayal of Galen's mood now. The camp was surrounded by endless plains, and the night wind was particularly cold, blowing Galen's cheeks with a faint pain. Autumn is coming to an end, the temperature is getting colder, and some soldiers even say that there will be snow in two days.
There was a slight sound of footsteps behind him, Galen turned his head, the owner of the voice was Saiana, with the determination of the relationship between the two people, this time Saiana did not stay in Boer City, but followed Galen to the front line of the camp, Saiana no longer participates in the battle now, but follows the elf Silvere to learn medical skills, Galen usually shows great spirit when he sees Saiana, but now he has no energy to say anything, just nodded to Saiana.
Saiana looked at Galen's somewhat ugly face, habitually put her arm on his wrist, and said softly, "Are you sick?"
Galen said in a somewhat stiff voice, "No." ”
Saiana looked him in the eye and whispered, "Then what's wrong with you? ”
Galen shook his head, still stiff and grim. "Nothing. ”
Saiana looked at him suspiciously, stared deeply into Galen's eyes, and said slowly, "You must have something on your mind. ”
Galen still shook his head and said nothing.
Saiana said with concern, "You must have something on your mind. Don't hold it back when you have something on your mind. It's easy to get sick, and it's better to say it. ”
Galen suddenly burst into anger inexplicably, and raised his tone for no apparent reason. He said bluntly, "I'm not sick, don't you always think I'm sick, and it's great to be a doctor?"
Saiana was stunned for a moment, a stream of water vapor in her eyes suddenly spread, a girl of her own followed her lover to the front line, and was actually counted down by the other party for no reason, Saiana's plump chest rose and fell rapidly, she was still holding the bread that had just been made by the logistics in her hand, and in a fit of anger, Saiana stomped her feet fiercely, threw the bread on the ground, and turned around and walked directly in the direction of the camp.
Galen looked at Saiana's distant back, he wanted to speak and stopped, he couldn't help but slap himself hard, these words just now were indeed a bit excessive, Galen looked at the two pieces of bread that had fallen on the ground, which were already stained with sand, Galen patted off the dust on them with his hand, put it in his mouth and bit it hard.
This was definitely the first time in his life that he had entered this state, and Galen felt a little detached from his whole body, and he didn't know what was going on in his head.
"Boom!"
From the direction of the Rorschach Pass, the explosion of gunpowder was soon heard. Relieving Galen from his unconscious pain, he saw a faint glow of fire in the night sky to the southeast, illuminating half of the sky.
This is naturally the explosives pack is starting to exert power, in fact, this is also the main weapon of the Boer Territory, whether it is offensive or defensive, the presence of gunpowder can bring a lot of damage to the enemy.
Galen still vaguely remembers the scene when he first came to the battlefield of Rorschach Pass, many buildings are still intact, and he can find a place to sleep at night to block the wind. When he went up a second time, there was nothing left in sight, only charred ruins. When he went up the third time, it was in ruins, and not a single brick could be found.
Luo Ya Ling and Boer Ling were originally fighting for a small town settlement, but now they are fighting for just a blood-stained ruin. In just four days, the Eagle Yang Army threw hundreds of explosive packs into the customs center, and hundreds of mines were also planted outside the customs center. Since the trebuchet they used was a consumable item every time, there was a lot of wood mixed in the ruins of the gate, which tended to catch fire, and the light of the fire clearly marked the gate from the ground, even in the dark of night, the two sides of the war could see clearly.
With the destruction of the pass, the frequency of fighting on both sides became more intense, from the initial day and night attacks alternately, to now the attack and defense have to take turns several times a day. At the suggestion of a large number of officers, now Meria no longer lays mines, because these mines cannot cause damage to the enemy's troops, and every time innocent refugees die.
The attack of the Roa is quite fierce, the Marassa armor is not omnipotent, there are eight soldiers of the Guards who died in the enemy's attack, Galen and these soldiers of the Guards get along day and night, the partners who lived and fought together yesterday turned into cold corpses in the next second, but Galen could only register the names of the dead with a blank face and distribute the pensions to the families of these soldiers.
I don't know when the days of such a tug-of-war will end? Galen's face slowly became more pale, and finally he sighed weakly, the tug-of-war was quite painful. It is a great test of people's mental and physical strength, but what is even more painful is that he has seen too many things on the battlefield that he should not see.
