1447. Evacuation
The tents on the high posts had almost been removed, and a large number of wounded Constructed Knights were sent by the new army of Handanar to the central city, where there was a more favorable environment for healing and recuperation.
The grass was a mess.
There were hundreds of vultures in the sky, and there were a number of boats in the Bouine River transporting supplies along the river, presumably to the fortress of Naroda.
Edmond. Marquis Arnold only made a mistake in decision-making this time, allowing more than 40,000 demon warriors to break into Handanar County, and no matter what he did this time, at least for now, the fortress of Naroda is still controlled by the Western Route Army.
The garrison of more than 100,000 troops, the delivery of supplies did not need a horse team, and the ships went directly down the Buruin River by boat, and the merchant ships only needed five days to enter the nearest dock to the fortress of Naroda.
Many of the Constructed Knights in the Eastern Route Army suffered heavy losses this time, and they also need to return to Handanar County to rest this time.
Whether it's buying a war horse or repairing a magic pattern build, these high-end services may not be able to do it even in Handanar City.
You must know that although Surdak's war horses are demonic warhorses strengthened after being implanted with life magic patterns in the Gubolai horses, the war horses required by the other lords' constructed knights are almost all pure bloodline and precious scale horses.
These military horses are strictly controlled in the Grimm Empire, and it is not easy to buy such high-grade war horses.
The mercenary groups that followed the army had long since dispersed, and they had been inquiring about the Eastern Route Army's Formation of Knights, presumably to hunt lone demon warriors in a large area of the tributaries around the Brook River.
On one side of this high hill by the river is a battlefield stained with blood and buried countless bones, and on the other side is a mess after the camp was pulled.
Already the merchants of Handanar City have come to contact these Constructed Knights, and the Constructed Knights on the Eastern Route Army will sell them the Dark Devil Skins they have obtained.
And no soldier on the side of the Western Route Army was willing to take out the captured spoils of war and sell them, not even the black-striped demon skin.
They are more accustomed to handing over these loot to the logistics office, the black magic crystals they captured are used for merit, and those black magic skins belong to their personal property, and the logistics office of the Western Route Army will conduct a public auction.
In this way, this battle was fought so badly that in the end, it was not even clear who belonged to the loot, and the black magic crystal only got a total amount.
But whoever peels the black devil skin is whoever's own......
There is also the issue of pensions after the war, and Surdak may have to pay a sum of money.
The banner of the lord of the Western Route Army was waving in the wind, and one thousand one hundred and thirty-five giant ghost pattern soldier ants were ready to go, and some giant ghost pattern worker ants with broken limbs and legs were now growing powder from their broken wounds. The tender new limbs and legs, still very small, curled up against the wounds that had healed.
Those giant ghost-patterned soldier ants with sound limbs and legs have some thick wolf skin mattresses on their backs, because these soldiers have very hard needle-like protrusions on their backs, and the knights in the costume are now without horses, and if they want to return to Moyunling, they have to ride these giant soldier ants.
The ant cavalry is still sorting out the last batch of military tents in the camp, and those ordinary ghost soldiers and ants not only have to carry the luggage of the ant cavalry, but also a group of luggage of the knights, and many ghost soldiers and ants. The strands are full of large and small packages.
Surdak's command post had been demolished, and only a small table with a map was left in front of him.
The commander of the Ant Cavalry Regiment ran over and reported to Surdak:
"Report to the commander, the ant cavalry regiment is ready!"
Surdak turned to look at the Buruin River, which had become clear, and instructed the commander of the Ant Cavalry Regiment: "Inform Andrew, let's go!" ”
"Yes, Commander!"
Not long after the commander of the ant cavalry regiment left, the giant ant unit of the Western Route Army began to move.
Wolf knight Tego is at the front of the team, he rides the frost wolf Bernita to lead the way, this battle, Tygo and Bernita were not seriously injured, as for minor injuries, it is inevitable that there are many evil spirits on the battlefield staring at him.
Andrew and the two-headed ogre Gulitham were only slightly injured this time.
Probably because they killed a demon general in the beginning, which made the demon warriors around them fearful.
However, Surdak could see that all three of them had gained something in this battle, and perhaps only this kind of bloody battle could bring out the deepest potential power in the body.
He felt that Gulitham seemed to get taller, leaving a faint rock-like mark on his skin.
Andrew's biggest takeaway this time was to cut his butcher's tomahawk into the blade, and Surdak finally needed to consider giving him a decent epic weapon as well.
The biggest change in Wolf Knight Tiger is the one that has changed.
It is said that only after the baptism of blood will the orcs grow, and this time Tiger seems to have understood the way to fight, when he rode Bernita, that kind of cold eyes made Surdak feel a chill down his spine when he saw it.
After the second turn, it became extremely difficult for the strong men to take every step forward.
I saw the group of partners around me desperately growing......
Surdak couldn't help but knock on the shield on the hook, thinking that he would have to work harder.
……
There were also some wounded knights of the Eastern Route Army on this side of the makeshift camp.
They will also have to sail upriver later, the boat is ready, but the slender man in charge of pulling the boat will not arrive until noon.
Most of the wounded knights of the Eastern Route Army who stayed here to wait for the ship were slightly more seriously wounded, and returning to Handanar by boat would have been less guilty than taking the overland route.
Surdak rode past the remaining barracks of the Eastern Route Army, and saw many seriously wounded knights lying on stretchers, basking in the sun on the grass outside the tents.
When they looked at Surdak, many of them had respect and gratitude in their eyes, and of course there were some other mixed emotions...... Jealousy, reluctance, admiration, hatred.
The respect for this commander of the Western Route Army is not only because he can summon the real dragon, but also because he has been fighting tirelessly for nearly a week after the war, using it to heal the sick and save people.
Although for a paladin, it is their priesthood to shine the holy light to every corner of the world, and to heal and save people.
But as a commander of the Western Route Army, it is very rare to be able to focus on healing and saving people without sleep after the war.
It was because of Surdak's move that he had to bring back at least a thousand seriously injured knights from the hands of the Grim Reaper.
As for the jealousy itself, it is not clear, the starting point is different, the jealousy will be different, some people are jealous that Surdak has a red dragon companion, some people are jealous of the mysterious alchemist with fairy wings, and some people are jealous that he has the ghostly soldier ant This daring army......
And some knights hated him, of course, for starting a war here, which brought him to an end of his glorious knighthood......
Surdak jumped off his horse, stood on the soft grass, and stepped forward as he looked at the constructed knights lying on stretchers waiting to get on board.
"Ladies and gentlemen...... I'm sorry! ”
"The severity of this battle is indeed beyond my judgment, each of you is a great hero, I know that you will have a long period of recuperation in the future, you can stay in Handanar for a while, wait, if you have any physical discomfort, you can come to me at any time, and my promise to you is that I will do my best to treat you whenever and wherever I can."
Surdak said this to all the wounded soldiers before re-mounting, following the large force of the Western Route Army all the way north.
