Chapter 159: A Wave of Unsettled 2
After a day of fighting, most of the people were very tired mentally and physically, except for the necessary night watchmen, the rest went to bed early, and Ed tossed and turned, and finally managed to sleep peacefully.
The next day, the aftermath of the war slowly fermented, and because of the final victory, the atmosphere in the army was generally good, and the grief of losing a comrade-in-arms was not so prominent, but careful people could still feel the undercurrent in people's hearts.
"It turns out that our commander is nothing more than that, the Patronus Light that you blew very powerfully, is still crushed with a single blow under the impact of our psionic knights!"
"Don't underestimate her, after all, you have killed so many Ingill knights with the lives of ordinary soldiers, can you do it in exchange?"
"Anyway, it's not as powerful as you said before, it's impossible to make those earth dogs bless the magic and compete with us knights, it's impossible, it's impossible in another hundred years!" the knight who didn't believe it shouted and walked away.
Leaving his companion to rub his head on the spot, "I felt stronger under the city of OvalΓ© before, could it be that something went wrong, or maybe it really couldn't compare to the knights who acted in the group? β
Among the Roland knights, there are many people who are jealous of the ability that Di Lia has shown, and everyone does not want to see that lowly ordinary warriors can have the power comparable to their own, and the antagonism between the two sides in the army has always existed, with Di Lia's repeated victories before. The ordinary soldiers who gradually felt that they were stronger also formed a holy women's army, and they had the taste of holding their heads high. On the way, I saw that the knight was slowly slackening, which caused many psykers to be dissatisfied.
The crisis now appears to be a setback for the saints. Proving that Deria's abilities do not allow ordinary people to face the power of the Knight.
Soon after, however, Andrei completed a preliminary report of the battlefield casualties, which circulated shortly after it was presented to the commander-in-chief.
"What? Such a low death rate? Did you miss it? Those who were directly knocked into pulp by enemy knights are not counted!" Howard was surprised with the hand-copied report.
"My lord, this is a combination of the comprehensive data obtained by the post-war self-inventory of various troops, and there should not be too much discrepancy, but the specific personnel list is still in the making, and it will be clear when that one comes out. His lieutenant dutifully reported in detail.
"Hmm, I see, I thought it was just such a star spirit power with such amazing protective power. Most of the soldiers who were broken through were wounded but did not die, and the result was also amazing to remove the effect of the commander-in-chief personally rescuing him after the war. β
Regarding Howard's inference, the middle-aged adjutant nodded and said: "Indeed, if the commander did not choose to sit still in the Chinese army yesterday and use himself as bait, but started a sports war, the amazing survivability of the warriors after these blessings alone would have dragged the enemy knights to death, and the casualties and risks would be much smaller!"
"Hmm. But correspondingly, it is impossible to achieve the level of total annihilation, Delia's inner city is unfathomable, and we can't judge her with ordinary people!" Howard denied.
The news of the extremely low mortality rate caused an uproar in the army. While everyone celebrates this fact, the two groups that are estranged from each other react differently.
The knights had a deeper understanding of Deria's abilities, and the Saintess were jubilant within. Even became a little arrogant at this time. Some well-intentioned people put forward a new argument: many of the dead warriors were trampled by the iron hooves of their own knights, and those Roland knights did not contribute much in battle. It's just a matter of picking up a bargain, and killing compatriots like the enemy, which is simply hateful.
In this regard, the knights completely disdained to respond with words, who dared to mutter like this in front of them, and directly use spiritual energy to beat each other hard, and then said, they still have a big advantage in terms of force.
In the case of worry-free outside, the internal contradictions are gradually exposed, and the anger between ordinary warriors and psionic knights gradually increases, if they are allowed to develop, I am afraid that it will not be long before the first murder will appear, and then it will be out of control.
All this was seen by Ed, and he paid more attention after chatting with Delia about related topics last night, not long after the news of the knight killing his compatriots spread, he found a number of people who made this argument through his own promoted henchmen, but after some scrutiny, Ed had to admit that these people said these words completely out of his own heart, and were not bought by outsiders.
Yesterday, almost all of these warriors saw the Roland knights slash and kill their own soldiers who blocked the way, some of them were originally injured by the Ingiers and were not dead, but they were run over by their own people, and their injuries worsened before they died.
In this regard, Ed didn't have any good way, he asked Andre to discuss, the other party was busy for a while, where did he notice the strange fluctuations in the army.
Just when the two of them were worried, there was news from Di Liya that a military meeting was to be held.
On the way to the council hall, Ed saw many commanders in the army one after another, and even the squad leaders of the smallest units were invited to participate, and it stands to reason that they do not have this right, let alone participate in the formulation of the next combat strategy, even observers are not allowed.
With these questions in mind, Ed walked into the hall and sat down beside Delia.
"Delia, what are you going to do today, I see that many grassroots personnel have also been notified and are waiting outside!" he turned to his companion and whispered to him.
"To talk about some of the next plan of action, in addition, Ed should also have noticed the unhealthy wind gradually blowing in the army, contradictions are brewing secretly, once we neglect to let it develop, it is likely to cause huge hidden dangers. β
Ed nodded, and whispered back to the other party about the investigation he had done during the day.
"I see, when we talk about this later, Ed, don't join in, just wait and see. Seeing that the senior generals in the army were almost here, Di Liya ordered the gate to be closed, and the basic personnel outside had not yet arrived.
Someone brought a huge three-dimensional sand table that was recently made, and when they saw this, everyone's expressions became serious, they knew how to fight next, and they would see immediately, and what kind of responsibilities they would play in it was something that everyone was very concerned about.
Delia slowly stood up, walked to the sand table, coughed her throat, and began to preside over the first military meeting after the war. (To be continued......)
