It was as if I felt the desolation of the city of Gölben, the originally sunny weather, after changing several times in the afternoon, finally turned cloudy, the moon was hazy, and the clouds covered the moon!

On the North City campus, Julian stood on a high platform, and a group of officers were neatly arranged at the front, all of them with a desolate look on their faces, because on their left, a large number of officers' corpses were displayed aside.

The weather in southern Xinjiang was humid, in order to prevent the corpses from becoming plagued, David Mo decided to cremate all the dead soldiers tonight, the urn has been prepared, and he strives to send the remains of each soldier back to the imperial capital.

Although Julian's cultivation is not very good, he is brilliant in his writing, and it is difficult to find fault with the whole sacrificial speech, but David Mo always feels that there is a little less tragedy.

He closed his lips and stood under the stage without saying a word, remembering the spectacular scenes he had seen on the city wall, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn.

"Mighty, loyal, brave, sacrificed! The shining point of every soldier can be seen in him, who is he?! He is the second-class marquis of the Empire, the third division of the Royal Praetorian Guard, and the division commander Kubry!"

Reading this, after reading the entire sacrificial text, Julian put away the paper and shouted: "Next, officers above the battalion level, on behalf of the flowers!"

In a row of officers, David Mo walked in the front, holding a white chrysanthemum, and when he walked past Kuburi's body, he gently put down the chrysanthemum, and touched his chest with his right hand in silence for a while.

After the crowd finished laying flowers one after another, Julian walked last, placed a white chrysanthemum in front of the corpse, and returned to David Mo's side, standing solemnly and solemnly.

He and David Mo exchanged eyes slightly, and after seeing David Mo nodding, he began to shout: "Send the Hou Ye on the last journey!"

At the sound of an order, there was a "bang" sound on the school field, and everyone knelt on one knee, touched their chests with their right hands, and shouted: "Master Hou is leaving!

After the uniform sound, David Mo's eyes were slightly red, and he muttered in a low voice: "Let's go ......"

Ten huge fires had already been set up in the school grounds, and the guards battalion of the original Kubri began to spark the corpses in order.

The urn has already been numbered according to the battle sequence and name, ensuring that everyone's body will not be misplaced. Kuburi's bones were placed in the urn and placed inside along with his waist tag.

Then another soldier escorted a large number of prisoners into the school grounds, preparing to kill the prisoners and pay tribute to the robes who died in battle. Many captives, some crying and screaming, some silent.

David Mo looked at all this expressionlessly, he didn't agree with the killing of prisoners, there were enough people who died on the battlefield, whether it was Rome or the Holy Empire, he always felt that if he could die one less, he would have one less.

Everyone has parents, brothers, relatives and friends, and killing is a bit too tragic for human beings. But he also didn't make a sound to stop it, because after the soldiers experienced the war, it was difficult for the breath of killing to calm down quickly, and killing prisoners was a relatively good outlet.

At the moment, he didn't want to continue to look at these cruel scenes, and said to Julian beside him: "The smell of blood is too strong, I'll go back and rest first." ”

Julian was noncommittal, he didn't believe David Mo's excuse at all, how could the iron-blooded soldiers who fought on the battlefield feel uncomfortable with the smell of blood.

He also had something he wanted to say to David Mo, the school was full of people, and it was not the place to talk, so he said to him at the moment: "The old man just wanted to bother about something, so he happened to leave with Head Mo." ”

David Mo nodded, but said with some concern: "If the adults also leave, what will happen to this school memorial?"

When Julian heard his words, the corners of his mouth were slightly disdainful, and he pointed to Ilya and Nicholas not far away, and said with a slight mockery: "Although these two rice buckets have no ability, they are their forte to play tricks, and with the two of them, where can they mess up." ”

He has now torn his face with Ilya and Nicholas, and there is no taboo in speaking, although he knows that the two of them have a hard background, but he Julian is not a vegetarian if he can become a deputy division commander.

David Mo nodded, didn't say anything more, and left the school camp with Julian. The city of Gerburn had a carriage for every officer above the battalion level, but David Mo's one was politely rejected by him.

Julian didn't know where he learned about David Mo's habit, so he gave up riding in the carriage at the moment, led a horse, turned over on the horse, and rode side by side with him.

After chatting casually about the fickleness of the weather, Julian turned to the topic and said with a smile: "The crisis in Gelben City has been solved, and I don't know what Commander Mo has on the side of Istanbul City?"

David Mo did not expect Julian to ask this question, because the order of the court was to hold the city of Gerben, and after the victory over the Romans, the whole army was in a state of completion of the task.

He gently held the reins in his hand and said with a faint smile, "I wonder if Yuri-sama has any advice?"

Julian's eyes swept the streets to the side of the street, the people around him had already been cleared by the soldiers, but he liked the tranquility, which was a sign of the authority of the superiors.

"When I came, the Military Aircraft Department once revealed that the emperor's ideas were actually more radical. He glanced at David Mo's expression, and after seeing that there was no wave on his face, he continued: "It's a pity that the treasury is empty, and there is no ability to send any more troops. ”

The cost of an army is enormous, and the salaries of soldiers in wartime are four times that of peacetime, and the post-war rewards and bereavement of the families of the casualties are undoubtedly enormous expenses.

At the beginning, David Mo was also curious about why the imperial court only sent one division of troops, and later Kuburi revealed some on the road, and he had already figured it out at that time.

He nodded and said with a faint smile: "The pavilions and high pillars, the Qiongyu attic, there is no sign of emptiness in the imperial capital. ”

Julian waved his hand and quipped, "The treasury and the emperor are two different things. You may not have heard of the saying in the Ministry of Finance: no matter how poor you are, you can't be poor, and no matter how rich you are, you can't be rich in the imperial treasury. ”

David Mo smiled on his face, but he secretly shook his head in his heart, he had actually heard of this sentence, and it was this sentence that pointed out to the point how corrupt the government affairs of the Holy Empire were now.

Seeing that the atmosphere had been completely relaxed, Julian then smiled and said: "The matter of Istanbul City, it is better for the Lord to send an army, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the imperial court if you inquire about it." ”

When David Mo heard his words, his heart suddenly turned, and he didn't understand why Julian cared about the city of Istanbul.

The central army of the Romans fled with more than 10,000 men, who were now stationed in the city of Istanbul, and they now had only about 6,000 royal forbidden troops, and he was confident that he would be able to fight in the plains.

But the siege of such a thing as ten to one casualties, he didn't believe that a veteran of the battlefield like Julian didn't know, and wanting to take the city of Istanbul was tantamount to a fool's dream.

He couldn't help but secretly think in his heart: "Let's make an inquiry, find out about the enemy's situation, who is this fancy action for? Could it be to show an attitude towards the emperor?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart: this Julian actually wanted to rely on this kind of thing to win the emperor's favor.

Julian is actually in an extremely awkward situation now, although he is nominally the supreme commander, but unfortunately there is not a single soldier under his command, and the only thing he can command is the remaining guard battalion in Kubli.

There were only one or two hundred people in the guard battalion, and he still needed to guard against the two villains, Elijah and Nicholas, how could he send them to find out the news, so he would discuss this matter with David Mo.

David Mo groaned, he still needs to continue to hold on to the banner of Julian, if there is no Julian, the third division will immediately be leaderless, and it is difficult for him to continue to command the other two regiments.

And if it's really just to inquire about the military situation, it's not a big deal, so he nodded and said lightly: "Since that's the case, then follow the orders of the master, and tomorrow I will send a team of men and horses to test the depth of Istanbul City." ”

When Julian heard David Mo's promise, the stone in his heart finally landed, and he had been hesitating for a long time about this matter, for fear that David Mo would not give him this face.

He was quite pleased, and smiled at David Mo: "The battle situation will be urgently reported to the imperial court for 800 miles tonight, and the head of the Mo regiment has defeated five officers above the regimental level in a row, beheaded the Roman Grand Duke, and reversed the crisis with his own strength, it is estimated that the entire imperial capital will soon be recited!"

David Mo smiled faintly, waved his hand and said, "It's a little vain, Mo hasn't put it in his eyes yet." Then there was a faint worry in his eyes, and he sighed softly: "I'm afraid that the Roman Empire still has a backhand, and the curtain of war has just ......opened."

Julian nodded, he also felt the conspiracy from the attack of the Romans, but he was not as troubled as David Mo, and said lightly: "I can't control this many, I can only do my best, and I will not be a vain minister." ”

The two men walked to an intersection and said goodbye to each other. Julian lived in a villa provided by the Government Council, and David Morry was not worried about the prisoner camp outside the city, he lived in the large camp outside the city.

He was accompanied by the commander of his guard battalion, Mulingail, and his party followed David Mo out of the city. The lights outside the city were bright, and Tielebi led a group of men and horses to roam around every barracks, leaving no chance for the captives to mutiny.

David Mo pointed at the orderly camp in the distance with his horsewhip, and smiled at Mulingail: "Tielerbi is a rough man, thick and fine, but he is a rare general!"

When he was talking and laughing, he never thought that everyone in the imperial capital was now looking forward to the war situation report in southern Xinjiang!
