Chapter 187: Life After Death 2
"Ed, you want to get the other party's plan of action by capturing them?" Andre thought about it and probably guessed the reason why Ed was in such a hurry to ask a specific person, "This is not easy, the knights are not so easy to loosen their mouths, and it is not very meaningful, now that the enemy is in the dark, the other party has the initiative and can change the plan at any time." ”
That being said, André followed Ed's advice and put it on the to-do list, and then exchanged views on food and grass.
At the end, Ed remembered his men, and his heart was much heavier after inquiring.
Of the four cavalry squadrons that went out with him, only three of them were able to run back completely, and the third squadron volunteered to take on the task of staying behind to block the enemy, but was scattered by the enemy, and the traces of the battle between the two sides that Ed saw on the road that day were the scene where some knights left by Ingier led the servants to chase down the third squadron.
After losing more than half of their men, the remnants of the 3rd Squadron escaped from the pursuit of the opponent, or rather, the knights led by the opposing side gave up on their own initiative and turned back to join the large army, so the remnants of their own troops circled back to the battlefield and took back most of the wounded soldiers.
In addition, Ed's lieutenant persevered to the end in the battle of the day and did not evacuate, but miraculously survived the impact of the Knight of Ingill, but fell into a deep coma and has not woken up yet.
Howard and other knights were not small, more than 30 were killed in battle, and the rest were injured, and less than 20 were still able to move, and these people were also responsible for guarding the prisoners and helping their companions to heal, so of course the original task of patrolling the supply line could not be taken into account.
Learn about these. Ed understood why Andre had come up to talk to him about prisoners of war, and that he had no effective means of physical detention. Ordinary warriors come to watch the Psionic Knight, and they are simply delivering food.
"Okay, I'll take care of this in a moment!" Ed agreed. By the way, he also wanted to see for himself if Scott was among the captives or dead.
Before that, he had to visit his own people, although most of the cavalry were fine, but there was also the third squadron with heavy losses, those were the soldiers who followed him into battle, and he had a reason to guarantee their lives.
There are also Roland knights, and there are also a few guys who have drunk with themselves in the list of the dead, but I didn't expect to say goodbye forever at this time.
Ed was eager to visit everyone, but it was all postponed, and it was not safe to leave the unprotected Delia to be protected by others.
The guards all knew that the relationship between the two people trusted each other to the extreme. There is no objection to him being guarded in the room, quietly guarding outside and waiting for the summons, the others are not so lucky, except for Andre, anyone who wants to enter must be notified and obtain Ed's permission.
After Delia slept until late in the evening, when the guards came to invite Ed to dinner for the third time, she seemed to hear a noise and slowly opened her eyes.
Ignoring the well-intentioned persuasive guards behind him, Ed immediately felt the girl's awakening through insight, in order to ensure the safety of the other party during this time. He's been using this ability to keep an eye on everything in the vicinity.
"Ed, I'm fine, you can go eat!" Waving her hand, Delia motioned for Ed to go first.
"Now that I'm awake. Aren't they together?"
In response to Ed's inquiry, Delia uncharacteristically refused, and at the same time turned over and buried her face inward. It seems that she must be very unsightly when she just wakes up at this time, if only she could solve this problem with a magic spell. However, the cost of careful treatment for three consecutive days was too great, resulting in the weakness of the heart now. It's ridiculous to force an overdraft for this reason.
"Oh, I'm not hungry yet, I'll wait for you outside!" Ed had never thought about such a thing before, but at this time, he somehow knew the other party's twisting thoughts, as if the two had a heart-to-heart connection, he turned around and left the room with the guard, closed the door and whispered to the female soldier who took care of Delia to fetch water to help her freshen.
Di Lia on the bed listened to the sound outside the door, turned her head and silently looked at the place where Ed had just sat down, the residual warmth in her hand was still there, this feeling of being carefully taken care of was very fresh and warm for her, she had been independent since she was very young in the mountains, and she had been demanding herself as a strong woman since she came out of the mountain, rarely showing weakness, but every time it seemed to be by the man's side.
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but froze, the powerful power temporarily left her body, and something that she had rarely considered before surfaced.
After Di Liya freshened up, the two naturally walked side by side and went to the restaurant to enjoy dinner, at this time, it was already past the meal, there was no one in the hall dedicated to serving middle and high-ranking generals, but the chef who received the notice had already prepared a sumptuous meal.
Seeing the hot things being served, Ed found that his stomach had already struck after three days of hunger, and he started eating directly without regard for etiquette, and the silver-level powerful body would not have an uncomfortable reaction at all, and quickly converted the swallowed meat into nutrition.
Di Liya didn't seem to have much appetite, she stopped after eating for a while, and frowned when she looked at the plate that was still served like water, "Are the generals and generals in the army so wasteful now?
has been a commander for a long time, and Di Liya has also developed a dignified majesty, and when she questioned it slightly, the attendant who was waiting next to her was weak in her legs, and her tongue was knotted and she was speechless to explain.
Ed knew that the other party remembered that his supply line was still pinched by the Ingir people who didn't know where, and he didn't forget the military hazard when eating, but he didn't want to see Delia ruined by this incident, so he interjected and explained: "It's okay, this is all for me, and now I eat a lot!" At the same time, he gave the guy who served the food a color, signaled the other party to make up for it quickly, and informed the cook of the situation here.
Seeing that Ed was round, Delia also calmed down her anger, ate a little more and ended the meal, only quietly watching Edhu eat Hesse on the side.
"Heh, Ed, it's good that you didn't have such a lot of food at the beginning, otherwise the three of us didn't carry enough supplies to eat for you in a day, and Andre and I would be hungry!"
Seeing that Ed had really eaten five or six servings of things in a row, Di Liya was initially surprised and simply made fun of him, the requirements for food of bronze-level psionics were higher than those of ordinary people, and Ed's transformed silver-level body was naturally even better.
The dinner was over, and the time was not early, but Delia didn't feel sleepy, so she pulled Ed back to her residence to discuss the military, but Ed didn't want to waste the rest of the day in endless military discussions, he experienced two lives and deaths, and had something in his heart that he wanted to say to Delia (to be continued......
