"The battle was fierce and hard, the array of the Chaos army stood like a brass wall, the knights of the Chaos army charged like a roaring tide of rage, Rick and the valiant knights of the principalities fell in hundreds, and many infantry squadrons and brigades were completely destroyed. Ah, and those huge demon cannons--------- or demons called metal, whose flames hit the formation is simply indescribable!"

"However, our artillery braved the rain of arrows and javelins of their cavalry, and with the advantage of fast and accurate fire, they finally dumbed down their artillery positions and shattered the Chaos warriors who were heavily armoured, with huge claws and strange horns, of course, this was only possible under the cover of countless infantry and cavalry comrades, otherwise we would have been torn to pieces by the Chaos warriors who rushed up to the melee battle. Each class is only one component of the Imperial Sword, and the symphony can only be performed by the concerted performance of many instruments. ”

The fat supervisor named Mount waved his arm as if to paint a picture of the bloody battle in the night sky. He took a sip of the flask he had brought with him to moisten his throat, and continued to talk to the young knight in front of him about his experience.

"After four hours of hard fighting, with seven or eight thousand casualties, our army finally broke through the front of the Chaos Army. They retreated, and our troops launched a pursuit, but only by a momentary negligence, a certain gap was opened between our covering units and our artillery positions. Perhaps, Your Highness Hyde, you will think that a gap is not a big deal, but in the battlefield where the elites of the two armies are fighting to the death, exposing the gap is fatal. This is the lesson of countless blood written for us, and we must remember it. ”

Mount's voice grew heavier, and Hyde felt a deep sadness in his voice, which made the young knight a little confused about what to say.

"In the midst of that chaotic cloud of dust and gunpowder smoke, a squadron full of hidden Chaos Knights emerged out of nowhere, and they seized the opportunity to break through to our regiment's artillery position. So before they were wiped out, the four artillery brigades were almost completely wiped out, five or six hundred soldiers and gunners were either killed or wounded, and the doors of fifty guns were nailed or destroyed by them, including several of the best Storm multi-barreled guns. I lost a leg in this fight, but a bigger injury than a leg was the loss of my young son. He was my only son, and he was as young as you are today, just three months old. Ah, this is the result of negligence in front of the enemy!"

The stocky station director wiped his eyes, and Hyde saw tears glistening in his round eyes. His hands clenched into fists, shaking constantly.

"Dear Lord Mount, I offer my condolences on the heroic sacrifice of your son. I understand your advice to me, I thank you for your advice to me, and I will not take it lightly. ”

Hyde is a man with a very sharp intuition, he understands the heart of this middle-aged man who has lost his son, and it is definitely not a bad thing to understand the real enemy he will fight in the future. After all, the battlefield was brutal, because the first day of victory in the battle did not seem to be a wise thing to do, and the voice of Director Mount joined the cold wind of the autumn night, which cleared the young man's heart a lot.

"Your Highness Noble Hyde, thank you for not being angry, for I saw your pride just now, and my words are only to bring you back to your senses. How many times in my years of war have I seen proud and confident young nobles lose their young lives in the first few engagements. I may not dare to speak to many nobles, but I know that you are a kind and sincere warrior, and that you are as righteous as your great mother. So, I must warn you not to underestimate the power of Chaos, because this is the lesson of the blood of thousands of warriors. ”

Director Mount took off his hat and bowed to Hyde to end his memories. Hyde returned the salute politely, he understood what the station director meant, didn't he mean that it was not advisable to underestimate the enemy and be arrogant? Of course, this Hyde knew, but he did not particularly agree with the supervisor's opinion, because he was full of absolute confidence in his own strength and courage. But in any case, in the presence of an elder who has lost a child, etiquette needs to be appropriate.

"Your Highness Hyde, Your Excellency Mount, it's time for the changing of the guard, let me take charge of patrolling here, it's a cold night, and everyone still needs to rest. ”

A slender figure led several soldiers up the tower, and this was none other than Marshall. The tall red-haired young man, dressed in the blue plate armor of a glittering cheetah knight and wearing a sword and pistol at his waist, walked up in good spirits.

"Thank you, my brother Marshall. Because of Grandpa Loren and Lala's reminders, I am reminded of a lot of your things, and it is really a joy that our friends from the past can be lucky to be reunited on this battlefield ten years later. ”

Hyde smiled and replied to Marshall's compliment. After returning to the station, Loren Sr. told Hyde a lot of things, along with Lara, and, of course, the Marshall Knight himself. This also reminded Hyde himself of the reason why Marshall came to Loren Sr. and his home more than ten years ago, and the origin of the "two life-savers" that he once couldn't understand.

When he was six years old, his father was killed in a great expedition against the green-skinned orcs of the South, and his source of livelihood was cut off, and his hometown was hit by a great drought. But the house leaked and rained, Marshall's mother unfortunately became seriously ill, and the seven-year-old Marshall, in order to prevent his mother from starving to death, had the audacity to carry out the first theft in his life, but unfortunately, the child's first shot was caught red-handed, and he was beaten by the ruthless idlers to the point that he was covered in blood and almost died.

When the tattered "thief" was thrown like a mouse by the stone ditch of the street, covered in wounds and about to be run over by a passing carriage, Lara and Hyde, who had come out to play, happened to pass by. Although Hyde was dazed and could not even speak, he had an unusually sympathetic heart, and when he saw Marshall's tragic condition, he immediately began to cry, and took out candy and handed it to him, motioning for Lara to join him in helping the poor peer. After a little tossing, old Loren arrived, and of course the old man would not object to the kindness of the two children, so he called for a doctor to bandage Marshall, and took him to his mother. During the conversation, the elder Loren was surprised to find that Marshall's mother and son turned out to be the widows and orphans of his subordinates back then, and Marshall's seriously ill mother also entrusted her child to this respected knight with her last breath, and closed her eyes forever.

So Loren Sr. took Marshall home and raised him with his granddaughter, Lala, and Hyde. The three children got along very well, but it didn't hurt that the cheerful Marshall would tease the silly Hyde from time to time. But soon, the elder Loren discovered that Marshall was not only very good at learning marksmanship and swordsmanship, but also had an amazing talent for reading and learning. In just over a year, he learned all the letters and vocabulary that Loren Sr. had known for decades, and he had at once smash the only two simple books he had at home. Old Loren, who was not highly educated, was quite pleased, and decided to find a more suitable mentor for Marshall--- which was quickly determined, Old Loren had a friend who was a martial artist of the Holy Cheetah Knights, he was a very cultured old man, and he had also served as a staff officer in the Grand Army, so it was really good for him to educate Marshall, who had a talent for reading.

In this way, after some preparation, the nine-year-old Marshall became the personal attendant of His Excellency Dalen, the warrior of the Cheetah Knights, bid farewell to Hyde and Lara, and entered the castle abbey of the Cheetah Knights. Soon after, however, His Excellency Darlen, the Warrior of the Warriors, and a detachment of the Cheetah Knights were sent to the northern kingdom of Kislev for exchange, and Marshall naturally followed, and they did not see each other again for ten years. But the clever Marshall soon learned to write letters, and he sent a letter to Loren Sr. every few months to report on his growth. It is said that he lived well in the cold northland, often taking part in small battles with the old warriors, the vast steppes of Kislev became his knight's training ground, and the ancient library of Kislevgrad became the object of the red-haired youth's frequenting until the storm of chaos broke off the mail route.

This is the story of Cheetah Knight Marshall. In a sense, it can be said that it is because of Hyde that the "thief" who was thrown on the edge of the gutter has become the glorious Holy Cheetah Knight today, this is the fact of "saving lives for the first time", and it is extremely coincidental that Hyde insisted on leading the troops out to rescue the health team, but he unexpectedly saved his childhood close friend and made the feat of "saving lives for the second time". In a sense, this may be the reason for the summoning of the spirit of the great God-Emperor Sigmar, as Marshall said.

Before going down the tower, Hyde had a brief chat with Marshall. He learned from Marshall that after Lara heard that Mrs. Greenhill was an acquaintance of her grandfather, she immediately pestered Mrs. Greenhill, hoping that she, as a high-ranking priest, would guide her to improve her level. And the beautiful marshal's wife was also very fond of the lovely Lala, and not only did not accuse the updainous girl of the warped nose, but immediately and kindly agreed to her request, and is now teaching Lala's medical skills in the hospital. This made Hyde laugh, he didn't expect Lara to be quite brave and have such a positive learning spirit.

"I'm the one who learned the least of the three, but now that I've regained my wisdom, I'm going to ask our college scholar Marshall to teach me some more from books. My God, I don't seem to know how to read, this is really ashamed, and in the future, my study will be taken care of by you Longlegs. ”

Hyde smiled and patted Marshall on the shoulder, and to be honest, he vaguely felt as if he had ever known how to read. But reality told him that he really didn't know how to read--- he couldn't read the letters on the flag, and he didn't have any impression of these letters! This made him feel a little ashamed, and he was even more ashamed in the face of the fact that he had studied with the monks for ten years and read a large number of classics, especially Marshall of history.

"I have to make up for my own shortcomings," he told himself silently, and Marshall's answer came immediately.

"It is my honor that I will use 120,000 points of honor to help your Highness Hyde study. When we have lifted the siege of Kislevgrad, I will introduce you to the wise Valkyries, and meet with the scholars of Kislevgrad, who has opened the window of your wisdom, and you will surely become a great man. ”

"My friend Marshall, don't make fun of me, you're embarrassing to me. ”

Hyde frowned, Marshall's ass was a little hard, didn't it? It seemed a bit like sarcasm, right?

"Your Highness, I'm not kidding. Because the Divine Favor is by no means comparable to the Divine Being, when he receives the Divine Seal and becomes the Divine Grace Warrior, his glory and wisdom will flow out like a tide, and my teacher, His Excellency Dallen, once told me that there are several knights or soldiers who could not read and write, and after becoming the Divine Favor, the speed of learning is unimaginable, and the memory becomes incomparably sharper, and the reading ......"

"Your Excellency Two Knights, please be quiet and pay attention to the sounds and vibrations in the distance!"

Marshall's tirade was interrupted by a loud roar from Director Mount, and almost at the same time as the sound was uttered, a series of lightning arrows pierced the night sky in the distance, shooting at the towers at incredible speed, like the fangs of a ferocious beast turning into meteors, heading straight for Hyde and Marshall!
