854 Entering NORD (3)
Hu Lunfilin sat alone on a cliff by the sea, her face shining in the cold moonlight, the dazzling light, like a spring reflecting her clear eyes, the cliff under her feet, under the impact of the waves, made a slight trembling sound, the sea breeze blew her hair, it seemed so lonely,
Looking at the dark night, some Hulun warriors were still wandering on the beach where the fierce battle just now, Hulun Feilin's bleak face revealed self-blame that could not be concealed,
Five thousand brave Hulun warriors, now there are less than three thousand left, and the rest of them have stayed on this beach forever, these are the elites of the clan, the future of the Hulun clan, and now Hulun Filin suddenly has a new understanding of the neutrality made by his mother in the presbyterian meeting before leaving,
Hulun Feilin still remembers that when he was a child, he was held by his mother and stood on a cliff on Hulun Island, when the sea breeze was very strong, but his mother still stubbornly let herself use a childish voice, pointing to the sea level in the distance and saying, "One day, my Hulun tribe will definitely land on the opposite side!"
At the beginning, it was my mother who told herself that if the Hulun people wanted to develop, they had to board a broader space, and on an isolated island, the Hulun people would not have a future.
It is under this concept that Hulun Feilin established the idea of leading the Hulun tribe to land, but now that I think about it, it is not that the Hulun tribe cannot land, but that the Hulun tribe does not have that capital, and just a small-scale encounter has already broken his muscles and bones, if it is like that kind of battle of 100,000 people, it is useless for the entire Hulun tribe to fill it all in.
"Landing, is it hope or destruction for the Huren people?" Huren Filin looked at the beach in the distance, and fell into a quiet contemplation,
On that beach, 5,000 Huren warriors dragged out 15,000 Nords with blood, and the battle was over and calmed down, but those Hulun warriors who had lost their loved ones were still stubbornly searching on the sand full of corpses.
It's like a ghost wandering in the dark night looking for its lover intently and lonely, and when it is found, it is very carefully dragged out, and then it is sadly retracted, and there is a whimpering low cry in the mouth, and if it is not found, it can only continue to look for it, but the battle at that time was too fierce,
The broken weapons and bloody broken armor pieces washed up on the beach with the waves, and the smell of the tragic blood still wafted in the air, and the cold night wind blew, bringing a whistling between the empty cliffs, as if the heroic souls of the warriors who had not stopped fighting before were still shouting,
The bodies of many Huren warriors have been crushed underneath, and the bodies of others have been swept away by the tide
The troops have already determined that they will advance in the early hours of tomorrow morning along the road in the direction of Tiha towards the southern stronghold of the Nords, Goras,
Therefore, in addition to the corpses of the Hulun warriors who can be collected and cremated, the corpses of the other Nord soldiers are too many, and there is no time to bury them, so they can only be swept away by the waves, and with the retreating tide rolling towards the sea, time is tight, but everyone still insists on using the last time to bring these brave warriors home
"You stop here!"
Looking at the lonely figure on the cliff, Nilai, who passed by the cliff, made a stop gesture to the guards behind him, and then walked over alone and sat down next to Huren Filin, Nilai looked at the sea in the distance, and said softly, "What is my sister thinking? Are you still blaming your sister for not arriving at the appointed time?"
"No, I'm just thinking, if it weren't for my wishful thinking, these warriors who followed me wouldn't have died, they could have returned to the island and been with their relatives, wives and daughters, and friends, but because they trusted me, they followed me out of the island......" Hulenfilin replied with a sad face, and there was a faint sadness in his tone. But now, I can only bring their ashes back, I don't know how to deal with those who have lost their loved ones, the loss of 2,000 people, it has not been such a situation for a long time!"...,
Nilai's beautiful eyes stared at the sea level in the distance, Huren Filin's words evoked her memories in Saland, her own warriors are not the same, they are all Salander people, with their own relatives, wives and daughters, but tomorrow, they will put on their armor and go to the battlefield, no one knows how many of the 30,000 Salander troops who follow them will return to Salander!"
Nilai was silent for a while, and then said with some emotion, "I know how my sister feels, but has my sister ever thought that they are warriors, protect their clansmen, fight hard, and even be willing to sacrifice, isn't this their natural duty?
And this time it was from Salander across the entire open sea, where it has always been a mysterious area, even with the guidance of the chart, the general fleet did not dare to pass through without permission, fortunately this time with the chart provided by my mentor, there was no danger to pass, but even so, the 113 ships at the time of departure, there are still only 110 left now,
A shipload of soldiers was swept into a black storm, I could only watch them being swept away by the waves, but there was nothing they could do, a ship hit a reef in the open sea, the whole ship was hit silently, and the sails of a warship were crushed by a hurricane at sea, and as a result, it was overturned on the way to abandon the ship, many soldiers did not float directly because they could not swim, and I lost more than 300 soldiers in just this ten-day voyage.///.//"
Just now I was thinking, tonight the night sky is so clear and transparent, embedded with large and small stars, but I don't know that star is the destination of my Salander,
"We Salanders are the most romantic, delicate and beautiful, but they are by no means suitable for a cruel war, and if it weren't for the fact that the Nords targeted Dylans, who are across the sea from Salander, we wouldn't have gone to war."
"Isn't my sister's participation in the war the meaning of His Majesty the Falcon?"
Huren Filin turned her head with a stunned face, according to her thoughts, the Salander army led by Nilai to join this battle with the Nords should be what Vekia Falcon meant, but it seems that from Nilai's words, it feels like that's not the case.
"You misunderstood him! He never forced me to do anything, even though he had every right to do so!" said Nella with a smile on her lips and a deep look at the starry sky above her head
"I took the initiative to bring Salander into the war this time, because I knew that once Dyrance fell to the Nords, the Nord fleet would definitely have Salander as the next target.
Instead of sitting and waiting, it is better to fight to the death,
Moreover, when he was in Salander, he promised me that he would give Salander a new peace, and that he would make the north the richest place, a place full of songs and laughter.
In fact, he did it, quelling the civil strife in Salander in the shortest possible time, developing a flourishing maritime trade, distributing excess land to the peasants, and now three-quarters of Salander's population is concentrated in the north, more than a dozen new cities are being formed, and the rich rewards brought by the maritime trade have restored the war-torn land, and the present Salander, although there is still a certain distance from what he said, I believe that day will be realized
"My sister is right, as warriors, their duty is to dedicate themselves to the clan, and what they need to do most now as their leader is to let them get what they deserve, glory and wealth" Hu Lunfilin took a deep breath and said with a relaxed expression, "What about him, where is he now? I have helped him a lot this time, and I should make up for it anyway"...,
"It should be in Goras!" Nilai blinked, a little distracted
"Didn't my sister set off with him?" asked Hu Lunfilin curiously
"No," Nilai shook his head a little awkwardly and responded, "In order to avoid attracting the attention of the Nords, our fleet set off in batches, and he led the 30,000 Central Army to set off half a day ahead of me
And I led the Salander army to set off behind, although he didn't say it, I could feel that his eyes should be on the Nord's Kyoto, and the Nord's southern capital of Goras must be the most important obstacle to be solved!"
War is a cruel contest, the winner can sing the praise, but the loser can only quit in the gloom
If only they can save their lives. Compared to the 15,000 Nord soldiers who died on the beach, the Nord Fourth Army, which was urgently retreating in the direction of Golas, was still relatively lucky
In the dark night, the 30,000 soldiers of the Fourth Legion did not even have a chance to rest, and marched rapidly along the road from Tiha to Grasbourg, lined up with long dragons of torches spreading along the mountain road.
The troops walked for more than 40 miles, and by the early morning of the next day, the sky was first snowing lightly, and then rain and snow were combined, and the originally muddy road was even more difficult to walk.
There were a pitiful dozen horses in the procession, carrying food, exhausted, and walking along the road constantly pouting their hooves.
A war horse finally couldn't support the weight on its shoulders and rolled over and fell sideways, and the scrawny war horse was stuck in the muddy water, blocking the way of the march
Under the command of Herus with red eyes, more than a dozen Nord soldiers struggled to pull the war horse out,
For a while, the sound of rain, human voices, and neighing of horses were mixed, and no one noticed it, and on the slope next to the road, a young man riding a horse with a stern face had been standing for a while
"You must clear the road as much as possible, or you will be chased by the enemy's cavalry!" Nolas rode over,
Watching the soldiers roll in the muddy water exhausted,
Wet all over his body, shivering from the cold of the early morning, Helus, shouted to his adjutant who could only speak cool words, "What do you mean by kuài, you should try it, damn this is a stubborn beast, pulling and not leaving, fighting backwards livestock"
"Really, then I'd like to see what it means to pull and not leave, to fight backwards! I don't believe it, there are problems I can't solve" Noras sneered at the corner of his mouth, pulled out his saber, "poof" a hot blood arrow sprayed him all over his body, a bean-sized horse's head tumbled and fell into the mud, and the headless body of the war horse fell into the mire,
"This ...... You're crazy!" Herus looked at the damned Noras in horror, and the other Nord soldiers were stupid
"Alright, now pull it out!" Norath wiped the horse's blood from his face with his hand, disapprovingly
"What a decisive fellow!"
Unbeknownst to Herus and Noras, a pair of cold eyes flashed with surprise above their heads
