Chapter I
The wilderness was vast, the sun was setting slowly, and the sound of horses was endless, and at this time Melwiezjon was dressed in a horse to take the lead, and behind him was a fierce iron horseman.
More than ten years have passed since the fierce battle of the Blood's invasion of Yurasno. Although this invasion from the alien race was stopped by Melwitz back then, in fact, it was a dark tide surging and the remnants of the legacy.
This time, Melwitz personally sent out the army to quell the rebellion.
After a long march of the procession, Melwiitz ordered the march to be halted and slightly repaired in place. As he turned over and dismounted, he stopped riding beside him, and a heroic young man in bright silver armor stood at his side.
"Father, drink water. ”
Melwitz reached for the water bag, took a few sips, and handed it back.
"Edmund, it's already a bad rule to take you out this time, don't do anything superfluous. ”
"The father can rest assured, the son will never dare to come nonsense. ”
Although Edmund promised it, his thoughts were a different matter.
His own father is the king of the town, and it stands to reason that he should sit in the royal court to win thousands of miles away, but this is not the case, but whenever there is a slightly bigger battle, the king of the town must be put on the battlefield.
Edmund also begged and grinded in every way this time, so that Melwitz agreed to let him, as the prince, experience what a battlefield is.
Melwitz was about to say something when he heard Edmund's voice.
"Father rest, I'll go feed the horses first..."
Edmund didn't want to give his father a chance to lecture him, so he hurriedly saluted and immediately turned and ran to his horse.
The so-called knowing son Mo Ruo's father, Melwitz naturally knew the little Jiujiu in Edmund's heart, and saw a little helplessness on his face, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart, and only hoped that this experience could help Edmund grow a little.
The war took place in the southern part of the Yurasno Empire, because a vassal king in the south tried to establish himself, and Melwidz, as the king of the town, would certainly not allow the division of the Yurasno Empire.
Melwitz left his army alone to confront the advance of the southern rebels, while he personally led a cavalry to raid the rebels' rear grain stockpiles.
The Iron Cavalry had repaired their place for a while, and when the horses had been fed with fodder and the soldiers had eaten enough dry food, Meliwitz gave the order to continue the march.
......
There was a pass a few dozen miles from Meliwitz, and there was a garrison stationed here.
The sky gradually became dark, and I saw that the two braziers placed at the entrance of the camp were already lit up.
There were only two people standing guard at the gate, and one of them pulled his face, as if someone owed him a lot of money.
"Why did you say we were arranged to do this chore..."
"Recruit eggs, I really don't understand bullshit, standing guard is a beautiful difference that others can't ask for. ”
The soldier, whose face was a little younger, was a little resentful: "I enlisted in the army to go to the battlefield. It's better now, it's better not to sleep during the day and stand guard at night, or to sleep at night and stand guard during the day, it's better not to come. ”
The veteran laughed a few times, but did not answer, thinking that the battle ahead was tight, and it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no piles of dead people, and that he would still be happy and comfortable in the rear.
"Brother, when do you think I will be able to go into battle to kill the enemy?"
"Kill the enemy?"
"Mmmm, my brother has been a soldier for a long time, what is it like to go to the battlefield?"
The veteran didn't want to pay attention to this young man who was in a hurry to die, but he was also reminded of his past memories.
I think that when I first joined the army, I tried to stand in the back row as much as possible, and most of the brothers who survived in the past were made officials, but I still stopped moving, can these words tell the young man in front of me?
"Lao Tzu was fighting with a big knife back then, and I don't know how many people's heads I cut off. ”
"Tsk, tell me about it!"
"Ahem, this..."
The veteran's face was a little unbearable, and he really couldn't make up any good stories all of a sudden.
"Stand on your post well, you can't talk about idle days when you're on duty, you don't understand this and still want to go to the battlefield?"
At the same time, Melwitz had already led the iron cavalry not far away, and it was already dark everywhere, with only a slight flash of fire a few miles away.
Melwich stopped the Beastmaster and ordered the horse to gather information, and it didn't take long for him to report it.
"King Yuzhen, the enemy army is stationed in front of us, and we have no way around. ”
Melwitz sat on his horse and waved his hand to signal the messenger to stand back for now, and he had been thinking for a long time in his mind.
"Father. ”
Edmund rode to Meliwitz's side: "You can trick them out, and then we'll get by." ”
"Do you know their strength?"
"I don't know. ”
"I don't even know the details of the enemy, so how can I talk about it?"
Edmund bit his lip and thought for a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his face was a little happy: "Then we can wait, as long as it is midnight, send a few people to mix in, and quietly put a fire, even if he has 100,000 people, it will be in vain." ”
"Bastard, if there are really 100,000 people stationed there, do you think this fire can still be set off?"
Edmund saw that he was always refuted by Melwitz, and he inevitably felt a little resentful in his heart: "Then father, what should we do, we can't turn back." ”
"It's impossible to turn back. Melwiitz was not angry when he saw Edmund complaining: "Since you plan to attack with fire, this matter will be left to you, what do you think?"
Edmund's brain roared after hearing this, whether he had heard it wrong, or if his father had changed his mind, and he really planned to let himself lead the troops into battle.
"Father, you, are you serious?"
"There is no joke in the army. ”
Edmund hesitated for a long time, the surprised expression on his face couldn't be suppressed even if he wanted to, and his heart was pounding violently.
Seeing Edmund's strange expression, Melwitz said, "What, did you retreat?"
"Of course not!" Edmund quickly turned over and dismounted, bowing slightly to Melwicz: "Assigned by father, the son will not insult his father's prestige." ”
"Get up, you don't have to salute me, remember that you are the future prince of the empire!"
Edmund couldn't understand it, and he couldn't figure out why his father's face suddenly changed, even if he was the prince, then Melwitz was still his father.
"Son remembers...", Edmund mounted his war horse before asking, "Father, when am I going to set fire to play... Ah no, it's on a mission!"
Edmund's heart fluctuated slightly, and he was really glared at by Melwitz just now.
"This is not child's play, ask you again for your father, do you really want to go?"
Melwiez looked serious, Edmund was a little hairy, it seems that if I mess up this time, my father will not take me out to play in the future.
"I will definitely complete the task, father rest assured!"
