This moment tugged at my heart, I looked into her eyes, and she looked at me. I saw the surprise and confusion in her eyes.

My brain was already boiling, and I just felt a little swollen in my head.

She watched me and walked gently to me...... Then she walked over gently.

That's it!

"Colonel!" Laurena's call pulled me back from my thoughts.

"What's wrong with you?" She looked at me with a smile, "Which girl did you see just now?" She said, looking behind me.

"Hmph...... Nothing. I blinked. It's okay...... I, uh, have a little more to do. I waved my hand and turned to leave.

But when I turned around, I saw her standing there in front of the church looking at me.

At this moment, my heart seemed to stop. What to do? Walk forward? Or not...... I was stunned for a moment, then glanced at her as if nothing had happened, gritted my teeth and walked straight to my barracks. But my eyes never left her.

"What's wrong? Do you still have to eat now? Ralph walked into my room with a plate and placed a jug of cider on the table.

The smell from the flask made me sick to my stomach.

"It's been a day, it's been a day, it's going on." When he saw that I was ignoring him, he asked.

"In this world...... What's the one that worries or worries you the most? I asked him.

He squinted at me for a long time, but didn't answer me directly. "Who do you fall in love with?"

"Hmph...... It's me asking you. ”

"Ha, your level of disguise is not high." He picked up the flask and poured a glass of wine into my glass. "Isn't that the beginning of your love, ha...... So many years, huh...... That's a good thing. He put the flask down. "But it's not like an old tree sprouts, you're still young."

"Drink it, I hate the taste." I said as I stood up and stood up by the window and looked out at the gloomy sky. "When people are worried, they become worried, right?"

"It will also make people brave." Ralph said.

In the next few days, in addition to worry and anxiety, there is also a tangled expectation in my heart.

Is this really a good arrangement? In this way of meeting...... I want to laugh every time I think about it. I always pass by their camp casually, hoping to see her every time I pass by, even if it is a side face or a back, I feel very satisfied.

I want to stand in front of her and even fantasize about hugging her! However...... I'm already dead. Was it in her eyes that day, I was just a person who looked like Mason, it should have been. That's how I convinced myself.

If this encounter brings more pain to her...... This is not my intention, I want him to be well......

But what I can't get rid of is that I still have a thought in my heart, a thought that is selfish to the extreme. Every time the thought comes to me, I'm even greedy to the point of complacency. Then I will interrupt my train of thought as soon as possible to prevent myself from thinking about it again, and another voice inside me will tell me that your idea is not right!

Maybe this state is the best now, I really don't want to have another war at the moment, and this state is very good now! Don't fight, it's just good to have a stalemate like this.

Although this fantasy can only be thought of, and it is not even as real as a fart, but this is what my heart desires. A few days later, my scouts and scouts from the Stormwind Kingdom brought the same news.

The orcs are on the move.

The swamp of sorrow on the east side of the Windwind Canyon was pouring out of a large number of troops, and it seemed that they were gathering. Maybe two days, maybe five days. But once the army is assembled, they will be in the city within four days.

My scouts say that they can't scout deep anymore, and it's almost impossible to enter the Swamp of Sorrows, and the orc scouts are now all over the mountains. It's possible that there will be scouts around the town of Brightwood.

There are also scouts who have returned to report that in addition to the large number of orc armies being assembled in the Windwind Canyon, the ogre forces also seem to be ready for war.

During this time, Brightwood Town has been replenished with more than 6,000 soldiers, and there are a lot of people, but the scouts have come back to report that the number of orc troops is not much less than ours. That's the problem!

On this day, when I walked into the command post, I deeply felt the smell of the approaching war, and the command post was full of people. I really didn't know that there were so many officers in the 7,000-strong troops.

I was feeling depressed about this war meeting, and the message that I had already asked Stormwind for more troops didn't make me feel very happy. The troops they urgently mobilized again from the North Elwyn Forest would be here at the earliest, a week at the earliest. And there are quite a few soldiers mobilized in the western part of the kingdom, but it will take them at least ten days to come from the west!

Ten days! If the prayers of the nuns and these thousands of warriors are useful, we may be able to hold out this battle!

From the initial skirmish when the orcs appeared, to the great conflict that evolved later, from the Stormwind Kingdom's letter for help, the situation has changed significantly. Time is lost!

All the villages around the town, including the Sunshine Glades and the Raven Hill further west, have now been mobilized. In addition to supplies, the most important thing is that the soldiers who can fight are gathering towards Brightwood.

My guys can feel the big change in the atmosphere, they've been training a lot harder these days.

"Reggie, can you investigate someone for me?" I asked him.

"Investigation?"

"A nun named Ellie." I didn't look at him, but I saw him smiling in my peripheral vision.

"What do you want to know?"

"As soon as the battle starts, is she with the army or in the rear hospital?"

"The rear hospital, of course." He said.

"What about the front? What about the position? I asked.

"Monks, and priests." He said.

"Have they sensed the way of Light?" I turned my head to look at his face.

"What ......"

"I thought it was ...... You guys...... Hey, forget it. It would be great to be able to give us bandages! I nodded.

The scouts were getting shorter and shorter to return, and the orc army had already crossed the Windwind Canyon. Coming towards Brightwood.

The weather has been cloudy for some reason these days. This made the already nervous heart even more uneasy.

Our specially-made bows and arrows were fully equipped, we were not hoplites, we were not cavalry, and the land cavalry in front of Brightwood was a bit of a stretch. The venue is too small!

Military meetings in Lothar were held every day, and the officers were constantly discussing how to ambush and how to cooperate. But in my opinion, it's all. As a defender, the walls of the town were made of wood, and they weren't that tall at all, and the fortifications outside the town hadn't been built! I really can't imagine that once the fight starts, it will be bulldozed here in an instant.

At dusk that day, it began to rain lightly. Although the rain is not heavy, the people who are falling are disturbed. The scouts have returned, and the orcs are less than half a day's journey away.

Countless torches were erected in the town, and the flames were beaten by the light rain. I didn't tell my soldiers that the orcs were coming, I only trained them for an emergency assembly at night. No matter what happens, maintaining maximum physical strength and energy is paramount.

For so many years, my sleep has not been good, especially when something happens, I always have a very light sleep, half asleep and half awake. Suddenly, I seemed to hear the sound of a trumpet! He opened his eyes suddenly.

Prick up your ears and listen! A trumpet indeed! Then there's the sirens from the church bell tower! I grabbed my weapon and ran out, and everyone ran out of the house.

The orcs have attacked!

I hadn't even climbed the walls of the town before I felt it was all light outside. Climbing up the fence, my heart trembled. The torches erected by the orcs lit up the night sky, and there were indeed a lot of them!

Two hundred paces away from us, the orc forces stopped. An extremely tall orc rode from the back to the front on a wolf. I couldn't make out what it looked like, but it was really strong, especially with its wide shoulder armor that made me shudder.

It's like a giant.

They don't have siege engines, they don't have trebuchets in front of them! They only have infantry! Archers! What does that mean? Just to see the situation and scare us? Still is...... Didn't even look down on us?

With a trumpet, the orc archer ignited the rocket.

"Watch for secrecy!" I yelled.

For a moment, I just felt that a fire was rising in the sky not far away! We watched the rockets in the sky arc in the sky and fly towards our faces.

It's landed! The rocket slammed down. My shield caught at least two arrows. However, there were unlucky unlucky ghosts who were still shot by arrows. It's just that I'm not in the mood to pity them or curse them at this time.

The second round of rockets is already coming at us!

"It's on fire! Put out the fire! Someone yelled.

"Be hidden! Leave it alone! I cursed.

The third round of rockets has been covered again. There are those who didn't listen to orders, there are those who didn't shoot them on the spot, and there are those who are unlucky.

After three rounds of rockets, I was surprised to see the orcs charge!

"Prepare to meet the enemy!" I roared. But as soon as we stood up, the orc rockets beckoned at us again!

The hidden shouts were drowned out by screams.

"Shoot!" I shouted. Our bows and arrows were spilled. A group of orcs fell, but they were still rushing forward.

"Free Fire!" I felt my hands shaking. The battle in front of you is completely different from before!

This feeling of oppression made me panic a little.

I don't know how many of our men were shot down, but the number of orcs I shot down was only a handful! It made me kind of devastated.

The orcs don't have siege vehicles! They rushed over with a ladder! This...... Contempt, perhaps! They don't need siege engines at all!

The trenches outside the town slowed down their attack. But slowly the defensive effect was destroyed by the orcs who rushed over.

"Rocket Attack!" I shouted.

The archers' arrows were wrapped in tarpaulins and shot at the rushing orcs. This worked well, but was quickly blocked by an orc holding a shield!

I couldn't resist this trick at first glance, so I shot an arrow into the trench dug after a while!

Why didn't it happen?

"The oil that ignites the trenches!" I shouted.

It took a salvo of fire to barely set the trench on fire. The fire that was slowly burning made me scold. In my memory, it should have been an instant burst of flames that split the orc troops in two! How the hell is this burned half dead!

The orc's ladder rushed under the wall.

"Prepare for hand-to-hand combat!" I shouted and drew my twin knives.

Push over! Then the ladder stood up again! Push down again! More ladders were erected up to the fence.

Our spears were frantically stabbing the orcs trying to climb the walls, but ...... There are too many orcs! There weren't that many people standing on the walls.

Raise a knife to cut off an orc's hand, and slash at its neck. Its body slammed to the ground. In the blink of an eye, another orc climbed the wall.

"Can't be returned!" My head was roaring, even though I knew I might lose now!

Suddenly I felt like a cow had hit me, I just felt like I was flying, I lost my balance, and I could see the battle on the wall clearly!

I was knocked off the wall and fell hard!
