Chapter 106: The Eastern Capital Plain, Conscience and People's Hearts
The soldiers saw the company commander Li Wentian walking out with a little girl in his arms.
The girl's eyes were glazed, as if she had just experienced unwarranted pain.
"Bring all the survivors into the camp." Li Wentian said.
"Yes!" A fighter took the girl.
Li Wentian raised his eyes and saw that survivors in the residential community had been rescued one after another, some of them were crying and saying thanks, some had already been frightened and their faces were stiff, and some were staring at the epaulettes of the soldiers of the Kyushu Kingdom.
Li Wentian took a deep breath, collected his mood, and shouted: "The whole company is ready to march, the target, the Eastern Capital Plain!" ”
Since Yamato Province was not only attacked by demons and monsters, but also several high-intensity earthquakes occurred one after another, the speed of the troops' march was greatly affected.
Fortunately, the troops who went out were all equipped with black armor, and although the march was difficult, they could still reach the Eastern Capital Plain within a predetermined period.
The army marched, and everything they saw along the way was devastated.
The collapsed cities, the corpses clogged up in the rivers, and the demons and monsters that roamed the wilderness all made the warriors' hearts tighten.
If the Kyushu Kingdom suffers a catastrophe, and these soldiers don't resist it, will the Kyushu Kingdom do the same?
The soldiers did not dare to think about it, and they strengthened their determination to fight.
Jiang Fan and more than forty other king-level powerhouses above the sixth order walked in the sky.
"Change formation, first formation, nine-yuan supreme formation!" Jiang Fan drank the order.
The king-level powerhouses began to slowly change formations, and finally each fell into their own positions and operated the Lingqi.
Rumble!
A pale golden light shot up into the sky, and immediately after, a roulette wheel appeared beneath the king-level powerhouses.
On the big roulette wheel, nine round wheels rotated according to some mysterious law, and the simple and powerful aura spread.
"Okay, the second formation, the Xuanwu Spirit Tortoise Formation!" Jiang Fan drank again.
The king-level powerhouses continued to change formations, this time the heights were different, forming a bowl-shaped formation, which looked like tortoise shells from a distance.
Airplanes!
The formation was formed, and the earthy yellow runes enveloped everyone, like a solid square ding.
"Okay, the third formation, Vermilion Bird Demon Burning Array!"
"Fourth Formation, White Tiger Roaring Heavenly Array!"
"The fifth formation, the Green Dragon Returns to the Ruins Formation!"
“......”
This time, he followed Jiang Fan on the expedition as a newly promoted king-level powerhouse, and his own combat experience was not sufficient, so the formation became a necessity.
Jiang Fan searched for the inheritance of memory and sorted out five sets of more flexible formations with no limit on the number of people, so as to defend against the enemy.
"The maximum power of the Nine Yuan Supreme Array can rival that of a demigod, and in an emergency, form this array to fight against the three evil gods of the Yamato Kingdom and the eighth-order source beast, but the consumption is extremely high!"
"The defense power of the Xuanwu Spirit Tortoise Formation can reach the demigod level, but the attack power is weak; The power of the Vermilion Bird Demon Burning Array can reach the peak of the seventh order, and it is mainly group damage; The power of the White Tiger Roaring Heavenly Array can also reach the peak of the seventh order, mainly for single slash damage; The Green Dragon Returning to the Ruins Array can greatly increase the recovery speed, and during the truce, this formation can be formed to gather the Heaven and Earth Lingqi. ”
"You get it, right?" Jiang Fan asked.
"Understood!" The king-level powerhouses shouted in unison.
The army continued on its way, entering an area covered in ash.
The sky was overcast, the air was filled with volcanic ash, and the earth seemed to be covered in gray funeral clothes.
"There are still six hundred and fifty kilometers from the Eastern Capital Plain!"
"Speed up!"
......
Eastern Capital Plain.
The front line of the eastern capital, the land defense belt.
The battle had barely stopped for an hour, and the demons and goblins, whose attack had been thwarted, retreated for the time being.
The cold wind blew through the stiff corpses and the broken chariots into the leaky fortifications.
"Salute!" A loud shout woke up the tired soldiers, and the soldiers stood upright.
"Welcome to the Marshal's inspection!"
Masao Hayashi wore a general's uniform and looked at the soldiers majestically.
The soldiers looked blank and tired, but they still tried to keep their eyes open and lift their spirits.
"Report to Marshal Lin Mu, the three brigades of the Third Brigade and the First Wing of the Eastern Capital Garrison Division defended the No. 7 area, with a full strength of 680 people, 440 casualties, 111 seriously wounded, and now 125 people!"
The only remaining commander, the leader of the third squadron of the second squadron of the three major teams, saluted.
"Only 125 people left?" Beside Lin Mu Zhengxiong, an accompanying officer was surprised, "Why are the casualties so big?" ”
As soon as he said it, he realized that something was wrong, and the blank expressions of those soldiers suddenly turned cold, and they stared at him deadly.
Hayashi Masao also glanced at him.
The accompanying officer hurriedly bowed and apologized: "Offended, my fault!" ”
The squad leader chuckled: "It's okay, sir, we are holding on to the front line, so you have time to retreat." ”
The accompanying officer was blushing and his neck was thick.
Lin Mu Zhengxiong coughed dryly to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere, he solemnly looked at the squad leader and his remnants, and said: "Great warriors, the residents of the Eastern Capital have all entered the underground shelter, as long as you hold up for one more day, reinforcements will arrive." ”
"Reinforcements?" The squad leader raised an eyebrow.
As far as he knew, the entire Yamato Kingdom was in chaos, and the army fell into its own big war before it had time to dispatch, and there was only one garrison division and the Guards Fleet in the entire Eastern Capital region to defend.
On the long front, more than 45,000 garrison divisions and temporarily conscripted soldiers were sprinkled down, just filling every line of defense.
This means that there will be no reinforcements, unless the waste men who have lost hope of life in the East Metropolitan area dare to stand up.
But this is just an extravagant hope, and there are not many men left in the whole Yamato country.
"Yes, reinforcements." Hayashi Masao said seriously.
"Where did it come from? Have we been able to get in touch with other regions? The team leader hurriedly asked.
At this time, the accompanying officer rebuked: "Don't intervene in secrets! ”
The squad leader snorted coldly and looked at the accompanying officer with disdain: "The secrets you hold are related to the life and death of more than 100 people, even if we die, it is to protect Yamato, but by no means to protect an incompetent person like you who is shrinking in the rear!" ”
Hayashi Masao stopped the quarrel that was about to break out between the two with his eyes, and said gently, "Reinforcements are from the west. ”
"Westside?" The team leader pondered, his pupils shrank, "Kyushu?!" ”
"Yes." Hayashi Masao nodded.
"The Kyushu Diet sent someone to save us?!" The squad leader was amazed.
The soldiers also looked at each other in surprise.
"Yes." Lin Mu Zhengxiong's expression was complicated, and he said, "So, please hold on, and when the reinforcements come, we will counterattack on all fronts!" ”
Leaving the front-line position, Masao Hayashi returned to his command post in the city.
On the way, he saw a monument.
"Stop." He said.
Getting out of the car, Hayashi walked to the monument and stared at the inscription on it.
The inscription records the aggression of the Yamato Kingdom against the Kyushu Kingdom nearly 100 years ago, and it is known as the "Holy War".
After reading the inscription, Lin Mu Masao sighed long, pulled out his pistol, and finished firing the magazine at the stele.
Then he said to the bewildered officers around him: "Send someone to blow up this stele." ”
"Why?"
Lin Mu Masao stared into the distance, which was the direction where the reinforcements of the Kyushu Kingdom might come, and said slowly: "Because the Kyushu Army is coming...... Don't let them see these things...... If they really save us this time, the words on this stone tablet will make us extremely ashamed! ”
