Chapter 18: Ling Zhongtian's shock
Thirty-two cavalry galloped in the southeast direction like a small whirlwind, this was the seventh squadron of the Knights of the Sharp Knife, they did not return to the military headquarters, because it would take at least three days to return to the military headquarters, and three days was enough for them to go deep behind the enemy, although there were only thirty-two people, but Ling Su knew that even the sharp knife would definitely have defeated soldiers, and his plan was to collect the defeated Sharp Knife Knights after entering the range of the enemy country.
The day after their 32 cavalry left, the military headquarters received battle reports from Bian Tong and the 7th Squadron.
Ling Zhongtian was the commander of the three armies of the Great Universiade this time, and at this time, Ling Zhongtian looked at the battle report sent by Bian Tong, and his eyebrows were wrinkled together.
The Eighth Squadron was completely annihilated, which was indeed very distressing to him, because every Knights of the Sharp Knife was a valuable asset, and for the Great Universiade, they would rather kill a hundred ordinary soldiers than a member of the Knights of the Sharp Knife.
Although the news of the annihilation of the Eighth Squadron made him feel distressed, this was not the reason for his frowning, he frowned because of the military report later.
"When the Seventh Squadron arrived, the Eighth Squadron had already been caressed by the whole army, how could Ling Su use the remaining thirty men to annihilate the enemy army?
"Could it be that Ling Su, this kid is crazy and wants to snatch the credit of the Eighth Squadron?" Ling Zhongtian is Ling Su's father, he knows his son's surname better than anyone else, this kid is exactly the same as when he was young, and that unyielding appearance makes Ling Su quarrel with him, the old man, all day long, but no matter how noisy, Ling Su's excellence is undeniable to Ling Zhongtian.
"Tell me, how did the thirty men of the Seventh Squadron defeat one hundred and eighteen enemies, and how could they fly!" Ling Zhongtian looked at the knight who presented the battle report, he desperately wanted to know what was the situation of this battle report that had been exaggerated in his eyes.
"Back to Marshal, the battle was over when we arrived, we checked the bodies of the knights of the Eighth Squadron, they had been dead for more than half a day, and the time of death of the enemy was the moment before we arrived, so it must have been the enemy of the Seventh Squadron after the Eighth Squadron was completely annihilated, as for the method...... Captain Ling Su didn't say anything, and the thirty-two of them left...... "This knight is usually very clever, but in the face of Ling Zhongtian, the generalissimo of the Great Universiade Country, he is still extremely nervous.
"En?" Ling Zhongtian listened to this knight's report, he knew that even if he gave Bian Tong another guts, he would never dare to deceive himself indiscriminately, and falsely reporting the military situation was a big crime to raid the family and exterminate the clan!
"By the way, you said they were thirty-two?" Ling Zhongtian didn't get a satisfactory answer, but he heard a strange news!
The seventh squadron was originally a full configuration of 120 people, but when they came down from the battlefield, they only had 40 people to pursue behind, and they lost 10 people along the way, and there should be only 30 people left, right, what is the situation with the extra two?
"Yes, we have counted the number of people, and it is indeed thirty-two!" The knight really didn't understand why Ling Zhongtian was asking this.
......At this moment, the communication eagle of the seventh squadron arrived, and a messenger brought in Ling Su's military report.
"It's the Seventh Squadron again!" Ling Zhongtian looked at the imprint sealed on the outside of the battle report, he knew that this was the battle report of the Seventh Squadron, and reached out to open the battle report in his hand, he almost didn't lose his breath at this look.
"Military Headquarters! The 7th Squadron pursued the enemy to the Jialan Basin, and found a large number of enemy troops ambushed in the Jialan Basin, the 7th Squadron could not break through, and asked the Military Department to send soldiers to come and exterminate it!"
"The pursuit mission of the Seventh Squadron has been completed, and the thirty-two men of the whole team set out from the east of the Jialan Basin and entered the enemy from the southeast in an attempt to enter the enemy...... "This is the battle report that follows! Although it was very brief, Ling Zhongtian understood the full meaning.
"This ...... What does this kid want to do!Does he want to die!" Ling Zhongtian slapped the battle report in his hand on the table, he looked angrily at the news in his hand that the Seventh Squadron had set off from the southeast and entered behind enemy lines, and he now had the urge to pull Ling Su to fight half to death.
Thirty-two people went deep behind enemy lines? Is Ling Su a demon or crazy? What is he in Xiqi Country? In the past few days, the forty squadrons of the Knights of the Sharp Knife Command have gone deep behind enemy lines, and eight of them have been wiped out, and there are still two who have not received any news, and the other 30 squadrons have also suffered more or less casualties.
You know, each of the other forty squadrons is in a state of full formation, and the state of full formation can be crippled and destroyed, is there any difference between these thirty-two people rushing in and sending them to death?
"Crazy! It must be crazy! Someone! Notify the defenders in the southeast direction and stop the Seventh Squadron for me! If you resist, you will give me a discount and pull my legs back!" After all, it is his own son, Ling Zhongtian usually quarrels with Ling Su, but at this time, how can he watch his son go to death? The Ling family is in a single line, if Ling Su really died in front, then how can he be worthy of the ancestors of the Ling family!
But when Ling Zhongtian finished yelling, he knew that it was too late! It was already two days later when they received this battle report, and according to the speed of the Seventh Squadron, they were probably already at the position of the defenders in the southeast at this time, even if his order was transmitted to the front as quickly as possible, it would definitely be too late.
Ling Zhongtian looked at this battle report with some sadness and indignation! He had always felt that his son was bold, but he didn't expect Ling Su to be so bold that he tried to go deep behind enemy lines with thirty-two people, did they think they were all demon warriors?
"Forget it! Order the 10th, 12th, and 14th Sharp Knife Squadrons in the southeast direction to immediately incorporate the shadow of the Seventh Squadron! As soon as any squadron is incorporated into the Seventh Squadron, return immediately!" Ling Zhongtian knew that behind enemy lines, in fact, the possibility of the two squadrons really meeting was too small, and the most that they could meet was usually the defeated cavalry, but at this time, there was only this thing he could do, he could only pray that Ling Su's mind was not completely confused, and he could understand that the terror of the Xiqi Kingdom should not go too deep behind the enemy.
However, he still underestimated Ling Su's courage, because at this time, the Seventh Squadron had already completed all the supplies on the southeast defender's side and entered the Xiqi Kingdom......
