"If everyone within the empire can work together, even if there is no strong eastern fortress system, the orc empire will not dare to invade. β
The officers sighed, and a thought flashed in everyone's hearts, and then they passed away.
If one day, one person can come out of nowhere and unify the entire Delmar Empire, that will be the day when the Delmar Empire will truly become a superpower.
......
On the city wall of Pingtung Fortress, on a tall flagpole, a giant military flag with "Pingtung" written on it swayed in the wind, just a patrol team passed here, on the passage between the city walls, each battlement has a soldier guarding, on the city wall, except for the whirring wind and the footsteps of the patrol, there is no noise, it seems extremely dull and solemn.
On the top of the city tower separated by a hundred zhang, a soldier stared at the front, east of the Pingtung Fortress, it was no longer the territory of the Demar Empire, but the extreme east of the Orc Empire.
These soldiers on the castle tower are specially used to observe the movement of the orc army in the extreme east, once the orc army appears on the plain, they will immediately send an emergency signal from the castle tower, and then mobilize the entire emperor stationed in the fortress** However, because of the strong reputation of the Eastern Fortress system, it has been a long time since there has been a large-scale orc army here, and every day it is seen in the distance that the mountains are endlessly mountainous, which makes the originally tense observation work extremely boring, and it is also the last thing that the Imperial soldiers who are on duty are willing to do.
And on duty on the city tower today is the centurion of the seventh squad of the third squadron of the second brigade of the Pingtung fortress defenders, who is staring into the distance as usual with boredom, he has been stationed in the eastern region for eleven years and three months, and is extremely familiar with the scope of his work, in this area between the fortress walls and the winding mountains in this area is not vast, where there are soil bags, where and what plants grow he knows very well, thinking that there is still half an hour before the change of guard, his mood can't help but improve, and his throat is also humming a small songγ
However, when he looked at the distance of the plain again, suddenly, his voice stopped abruptly - the area that had been uninhabited for hundreds of miles had hundreds of wriggling black dots at some point, and they were rushing towards the fortress.
Enemy attack?
Almost without even thinking about it, Richard immediately picked up the drum hammer in front of the tower and struck it vigorously.
"Knock! knock!"
The drums on the city tower echoed in the sky above the entire Pingtung fortress, hearing the drums, a large number of imperial ** teams lined up to rush to the direction of the city wall, although the Pingtung fortress has not heard the emergency drums for a long time, but the garrison responded relatively quickly, in the original lively street is empty, the shops on the street have been closed, deserted, only the rapid footsteps of the emperor ** team who are ordered to act.
And Marshal Bolon, Marshal Montich and other imperial officials who were originally deliberating below, were a little surprised when they heard the sound of war drums coming from the direction of the city wall-Hasn't the Orc Empire already decided to negotiate peace? What the hell is going on?
Under the leadership of General Anke, the commander of the Pingtung Fortress, Montich and other imperial officials followed behind Marshal Bolon, and soon came to the city tower.
"General Anker!"
When Richard saw General Anker coming, he immediately straightened his waist and saluted him, and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw Marshal Boron and Marshal Montich behind General Anker, as well as General Bennu and others, and when he saw clearly the ranks on the collars of those imperial officials, especially the five gold stars on the collars of Bronn and Montich, he was so nervous that he stammered and couldn't speak.
He knew that General Anke in front of him was the highest commander of the imperial ** team in the Pingtung Fortress, but he was also a two-star general, and now those imperial ** officers behind him, in addition to the two people who have five gold stars, the other imperial ** officials also have three stars, two stars, and very few are also one star.
In the Delmar Empire, there are only two imperial ** officials who can wear five-star emperors, one is the generalissimo of the Eastern Fortress system, and the other is the supreme commander of the eastern region, Marshal Montich.
In other words, the two people in front of him now turned out to be Generalissimo Bologne and Marshal Montich?
"You beat the drums?"
General Anker's voice woke Richard from his shock, and realizing his gaffe, Richard immediately pointed into the distance with his hand, "General Anker, there is an army coming from the mountains of the Far East, so I beat the war drums. β
"Oh?"
General Anker and the others looked in the direction he pointed......
At this time, the hundreds of black dots were gradually approaching, and their outlines could be vaguely seen on the castle tower, but ......
"General Anker, those people in front of you seem to be human cavalry, right?"
General Bennu, who was on the side, frowned and observed, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"That's right, it's the cavalry ......," General, the commander of the former Iron Wall Legion, said with great certainty, he was sure of this after fighting with the Orc Emperor ** team so many times in the eastern region, those black spots were not the cavalry of the orc race.
At this time, General Anker also found out about this, and immediately called Richard next to him, and scolded, "Which brigade are you from, call your captain over, do you know how serious it is to lie about the military situation?"
General Anker was annoyed for a while, lying about the military situation was something that had never happened in Pingtung Fortress, and no one had beaten the war drum for many years, but at this time, when Generalissimo Bolong came to inspect, there was a fork, which made his face go somewhere.
"General Anker...... I...... I'm ......" Richard saw General Anker's annoyance, and his face turned pale and he was overwhelmed with fright.
"General Anker, he can't be blamed for this......"
Bolon, who had been staring at the front of the fortress and watching the hundreds of cavalrymen gradually approaching, retracted his gaze, and said to General Anker, whose face was flushed, "This matter is not to blame him, Pingtung Fortress is on the border of the Orc Empire, the location is important, and those cavalry suddenly appeared from a distance, it is difficult to distinguish from a distance, this officer can find it in time and immediately sound the alarm, this commander thinks that not only should he not be punished, but he should also be rewarded, this time, it should be regarded as a drill conducted by you." β
"But ......"
Boron set his eyes on the front of the fortress again, the figures of the hundreds of cavalry were already completely clear, judging from the style of clothing and armor, they were indeed the cavalry of the Delmar Empire.
"General Anker, has your cavalry moved recently?"
General Anker shook his head!
"Have any cavalry left the fortress recently?"
General Anker shook his head anyway.
"What about yours?"
Bolon's gaze swept to the imperial officials behind him, and they all got a sign of whether they were or not.
"So, can any of you tell me where those cavalrymen came from?"
