Realm of Power

After a day of fierce fighting, the river was filled with red. The battle for the river came to an end with the slow retreat of the Dorok Army. On the bloody and muddy bank, the exhausted Falcon Army was cleaning the battlefield. Some Refugees from nearby Ruidian also came looking for their relatives.

"Bisidi, God bless you, you are still alive..." The ones who were found let out a cry of joy and hugged each other tightly. The ones who were not found among the living were like wandering in the dark night. The ghost who doesn't go away is looking for his loved ones devotedly and lonely,

Those who were found were dragged out of the pile of corpses with extreme caution, and then they restrained themselves with sadness, and a low sobbing sound came out of their mouths. If they were not found, they could only continue to search, but the battle at that time was too fierce. , various broken weapons and bloody fragments of armor were washed away by the river, and the tragic and bloody smell still floated in the air. Because it was the most tragic hand-to-hand encounter, most of the corpses were not left behind, and they all followed. With the rushing river flowing towards unknown distances,

"Woo"

Many Ruidian people squatted beside the rushing river and howled heart-breakingly.

The river wind blew violently, and the raindrops in the sky stopped in the evening. A colorful sunset appeared in the distant sky, like golden rays of light projected from the layers of clouds, making this time full of sadness. A little more bleak

With the arrival of the two infantry flag regiments of the Central Army, Hu Keqili finally survived the first day with difficulty. As the commander of the battle, he did not dare to be careless at all, but when walking through the river beach, he Still a little reluctant to look away,

Looking from the slope where he was, the white shrouds of the corpses below made the entire river embankment completely white. Three thousand corpses lay all over the vast square behind. The river embankment was full of people turning over corpses. The soldiers were silent. Looking for surviving colleagues. Civilians hoped to find information about their relatives, but unfortunately, the answers they received were bloody corpses lifted from the river embankment. These corpses were arranged in rows behind the river embankment, and more and more people gathered here.

"pause"

Hu Keqili waved his hand to stop a team carrying corpses passing by. There were only 15 soldiers in this team but they were carrying 7 corpses. The size of a team is usually between 20-30 people. In other words, this team Half of the team was gone, stumbling in the mud in despair. Their faces were full of sadness. There were many people like them on the embankment. The reason why Hu Keqili noticed it was because this group of soldiers wore backpack-style leather armor issued during temporary recruitment.

This kind of leather armor was produced a few months before the fall of Ruidian. Due to the loss of the three northern counties rich in iron ore, and the large-scale military expansion of the self-reliant second prince in Kyoto, the once prosperous Palavon Kyoto. It also began to be unable to supply the army's weapon configuration, so someone proposed the idea of ​​using light leather armor on a large scale.

The advantage of leather armor is that it is easy to manufacture on a large scale. You only need to pickle animal leather with salt and then dry it in the sun. However, the forging of iron armor is troublesome. It not only requires sufficient iron ore but also requires a large number of skilled craftsmen. In comparison, the second prince adopted the equipment The simplicity of light leather armor made the Ruidian army accustomed to heavy armor group tactics obviously find it difficult to adapt to light leather armor. This was also the case in the Battle of Staros. Although the Ruidian army was large in number, it also showed combat power in the later stages of the battle. Extremely declining. One reason for complete failure in the end,

But this batch of leather armors in stock saved Hu Keqili’s life.

If these equipment had not armed these thousands of Ruidian people, the Falcon Army with less than 20,000 people would never have been able to withstand the overwhelming and violent offensive of the Dorok people just now. To a certain extent explain. Most of the attacks just now fell on the thousands of front-line Ruidian soldiers. It was their bravery and persistence that brought about a slight turn in the entire battle.

"grown ups"

Seeing that the person blocking them was a general, the soldiers quickly put the body down and stood on both sides to salute Hukoqili.

Hu Keqili walked forward without hesitation, opened the white shroud at the front and took a look, "Where are you going to carry him? Don't you know the army's regulations? All corpses killed in battle must be cremated. , This is not only for the convenience of cleaning, but also to avoid the epidemic of plague after the war."

"He is my brother. I want to take him back to let my mother take a last look at him before he is cremated. I really have no other ideas." The team leader stood nearby and said hastily with a pale face.

Although he is not a regular member of the Falcon Army, he also knows that this is a serious violation of military regulations. The military regulations of the Falcon Army have always been strict and vigorous. As a Ruidian man, he can already imagine this serious-faced general. He straightened his body and was ready to accept the punishment.

"Are you going to take him back like this? With blood and your punishment?"

To everyone's surprise, instead of showing anger, Hu Keqili took out a white handkerchief from his arms and very carefully wiped away the thick blood on the face of the dead soldier. As the blood was wiped away, revealing A very handsome young man's face,

The fluff at the corner of his mouth was slightly upturned, his golden curly hair was coiled on his forehead, and he was a very young and handsome young man. He should be the kind of man that many beautiful girls would have a crush on. But at this moment, this young man's life has been lost forever. His His screams and life have remained on this river embankment forever, and his blood has merged into the river in front of him. The cold wind blew across the river, bringing with it a roar. It seemed that the previous fighting had not stopped, and the heroic souls of the soldiers were still shouting. ,

"He is good, better than many people"

Hu Keqili carefully took out a golden medal from his arms, which he had obtained during the Northern War. The young man in front of him made him see the blood of a nation. This nation was once his enemy, but Now they are their own warriors. Their bravery and fearlessness are enough to deserve the name Falcon Army.

He gently placed the medal next to the ear of the young man's corpse and said to the Ruidian squad leader

"A message to your mother, he is the bravest warrior I have ever seen. I am proud of him and his brother. It is an honor to fight with you," said Central General Hu Keqili. They will be remembered, both by the Reedians and the Vecians."

"grown ups......"

Seeing Hu Keqili's retreating figure, the team leader sobbed a little, and something hot surged in his heart.

"Everyone, search carefully, maybe there are still brothers who survived." Just like Hu Keqili, the officers of the Falcon Army were also active on the embankment. They were all exhausted and almost collapsed, but they still squatted down one by one. Detect the pulse of the corpse, this is The military regulations of the Falcon Army are that officers cannot rest until all the soldiers have been found. Regardless of life or death, officers should know their soldiers well. Together, the officers will record the details of every corpse. The ashes are then delivered to their loved ones.

In late autumn, in the fresh Dorok Mountains after the rain, a black mountain goshawk flew across the blue sky. Under its spread wings were the twilight mountains, and the towering Dorok Snow Mountains on both sides cut off the mountains. This deep and solemn color is in sharp contrast with the green coniferous forest under the snow-capped mountains, forming a wonderful picture.

"Sometimes, I really doubt that a guy like you, who can't even shoot a wild sheep, can actually be an official Falcon Army officer." A dexterous figure lamented next to the fat man,

This is a pretty little beauty with neat short black hair, a face as smooth and flawless as jade, eyebrows as pale as the moon, and the most exciting thing is the pair of smart eyes, which are full of tears at this time, but But it did not detract from her beauty, but added a kind of He has a mysterious and sad charm. He is wearing a tight-fitting outfit similar to that of a mountain hunter. The front is bulged and the back is curved, which outlines an almost S-shaped perfect figure. Someone who can make such a mockery of a fat man without any scruples is naturally chosen. Fogelin, who stayed in the Northern Army,

The fat man was dressed like a mid-level officer, wearing not-so-expensive chainmail, and holding a hunting bow used by Dorok hunters. Behind him, three nervous guards followed. His Majesty Falcon suddenly became interested in hunting, which caught the guards a little off guard.

Who doesn't know about His Majesty Falcon's incredible archery skills? As long as it's over 30 meters, even a bison may not be able to hit it. If you want to shoot a mountain goat in the mountains, which is famous for its agility, it's absolutely impossible. Arabian Nights,

"I'm not used to using this thing. It's normal that I can't hit the target."

The fat man threw the mountain hunting bow in his hand to a guard behind him. He seemed disapproving of Fogelin's sarcasm and said with a smile, "I am just a logistics officer of the legion. Even if I have as superb archery skills as you, it is of no use." Instead, you should tell me more about shortcuts, such as where there are better roads, so that I can avoid detours."

"You are really lazy. I really doubt that you are not Caesar Sauron's nephew? As far as I know, Caesar Sauron is the leading general in the Falcon Army and he governs the army harshly. How could there be such a useless nephew like you?" Fugelin turned her head with some doubt, and looked at the fat man affectionately with her big, watery eyes.

"Are you a coward? I don't think so. Even if you are a coward, some people like you, right?" The fat man narrowed his eyes into a straight line and looked up and down at Fogelin half-seriously. His squinting eyes made Fogelin shyly turn her head away. go

Fu Gelin rode a horse and rushed past the side. A clear sound like a silver bell was thrown over her, "You are just a person who talks nonsense. My father asked me to be more careful with you, saying that someone like you can sell me." I still have to count the money for you."

"No, but I spent money to rescue him.

"How could he say that to me?" The fat man looked aggrieved and looked at Fogelin's delicate figure like a butterfly.

He murmured in a low voice, "Actually, I might not be able to hit the wild goat, but I might be able to hit a more agile target. But how many people can see this?" (To be continued. If you If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
