Chapter 299 Don’t forget your original intention
Soon, these soldiers who participated in the looting paid the price.
They looked at their comrades beside them in disbelief, tightly holding the sharp blades that were piercing their bodies.
Perhaps at the last moment when their pupils disappeared, they knew how to write the word "regret".
Ruthina integrated the troops on the front line and regrouped about 50,000 soldiers.
There are still 50,000 soldiers who have already gone to who knows where...
Ruthina had no choice but to take these soldiers back to Rost City.
Rost City is the largest city in the Principality of Lanlot.
It is also the capital of the Principality of Lanlot.
After the fall of the capital of the Holy Kara Empire, the capital of the Principality of Lanlot, Rost City, became the temporary capital of the Holy Kara Empire.
However, Emperor Leibni of the Holy Kara Empire was not stationed in the city of Rost.
He is currently on the northern front, personally leading his army to resist Dayan's attack.
So the city of Rost was given to Leibni's daughter Ruthna.
Although Ruthina is a female student, she is a disciple of Thunder Knight Carl.
However, Karl only taught her for three years, and that was out of consideration for Leibni's father.
But in these three years, Ruthina has already learned most of Carl's skills.
Although I haven't learned the essence, I'm already getting some idea of what to do. With time, I'll be able to become a qualified top-level fighting knight.
This is why Leibni confidently handed over the city of Rost to his daughter Rusna.
Leibni knew that Ruthina would definitely fight for Rost City until the last moment.
I hope Ruthina can hold on until she can return to defense...
But can Ruthina really stop Dayan’s iron hoof?
on the road.
The Gudry and William battalions were sprinting at full speed.
Many refugees on the road fled frantically after seeing this, while some refugees simply gave up and lay down on the road.
Because they had been robbed once, although Ruthina dealt with the robbers.
But after Ruthina left, some refugees swarmed in and snatched away all the food that originally belonged to them.
The most terrifying thing during the war is not natural disasters, but man-made disasters...
Because human greed and selfishness will devour everything...
Seeing this scene, Guderian did not show anger, but ordered the armored troops to go down to the wasteland on both sides and advance quickly along the wasteland.
Although this would affect the armored forces' marching speed, if they were asked to harm innocent people, Guderian and his men would not be able to do it.
William couldn't bear to see this scene, so he ordered the soldiers to distribute the extra food.
If you can save one, then save one...
After all, William and Gudry were just the vanguard.
The main force is still behind and will not arrive for at least a few more hours.
I hope these refugees can hold out until the army arrives...
Because William had already seen some refugees lying unconscious on the ground...
Looking at these displaced people, William couldn't help but think of the era before Da Yan was established, which was called the Territory of Sin.
People are also displaced like these refugees, living a life of having no food to eat...
End the war sooner, if it ends sooner, these refugees can live a good life...
Many refugees looked at the Dayan National Defense Forces on both sides of the road, and watched them distributing food with disbelief on their faces.
The refugees didn't understand why these enemies were giving them food.
In fact, Ruthina wanted to give food to these refugees, but the food in Rost City was running out, and she didn't bring much food with her.
So Ruthina could only pray that these refugees could reach Rost City alive.
Once they arrive in Rost City, Ruthina will do everything she can to give them something to eat.
After all, there are still so many nobles in the city who have made no contribution...
Soon it was afternoon.
Guderian and his men marched for more than six hours under the scorching sun.
After running 250 kilometers, they successfully arrived at the outskirts of Rost City.
Looking at the city of Rost, which was actively preparing for war, Gudli and William both knew that if they wanted to capture this city, they would have to pay a certain price...
Gudry ordered the armored forces to rest, while William ordered the infantry battalion to build a defensive position to prevent the enemy from leaving the city to launch an attack.
At the same time, Guderian reported the situation in Rost to the headquarters.
After a brief discussion, the 1st Armored Division Command decided to take the city of Rost by force.
Because Rost City is currently the capital of the Holy Kara Empire.
If a country's capital could be captured, it would be a heavy blow to the Holy Kara Empire.
But when the commander of the 1st Armored Division learned that it was Rusna who was responsible for guarding Rost City, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.
Immediately dispatch the seventh-level fighting knight who remained in the division headquarters to go to Gudli and the others to maintain order.
This Fighting Knight is one of Cadis's squire knights.
The mission of these fighting knights is to maintain order and prevent high-level enemy forces from intervening in the war.
To put it simply, these high-level combat forces are mushroom eggs.
You can choose not to use it, but you can’t have it. When the opponent shows a mushroom egg, you also have to show your mushroom egg.
William looked at the civilians fleeing from the city to the surrounding areas and was undecided about whether to attack.
Guderian was also very solemn.
Because the walls of Rost were very strong, this meant that heavy artillery had to be used for bombardment.
But the heavy artillery battalion will take another three hours to arrive, and once it arrives, it will have to launch an artillery attack.
Otherwise, the failure to quickly capture Rost City will have a very serious impact on the entire plan.
Soon, William and Guidry got the investigation report on Ruthna.
The Intelligence Bureau has already thoroughly investigated the Holy Kara Empire.
Naturally, I know what kind of person Ruth is.
When William saw that Ruthina was a noble who cared about the common people, an idea came to William's mind.
Gudley listened to William's plan and said uncertainly.
"Are you sure? Will this work?"
"How do we know if we don't try? There are still 15 civilians in the city. It will take more than a few hours to evacuate these 15 people..."
As William spoke, he ordered the soldiers to put on the most formal military uniform.
"But you're alone, what if something happens?"
Gudry was still worried and asked William to negotiate.
William smiled and said.
“The leader said that sometimes we don’t have to fight. Besides, there are so many civilians in the city. Aren’t you and I also civilians?
Even now, we are still civilians!
So we should never forget our roots. Whether it is for our original intentions or for the 150,000 people in the city, I have to go!
Don't forget why we put on this military uniform in the first place?
Maybe we did it for money and to have enough food to eat, but now you and I know that we do it for more ordinary people like us to have a good life!"
Gudley opened his mouth but couldn't say anything for a long time. He walked forward silently to help William tidy up his military uniform.
"If the situation is not right, just run away. Come back alive. I haven't proposed to your sister yet!"
William, who had just been moved to tears, suddenly looked grim.
I treat you as my brother, but you want me to be my brother-in-law?
(Good afternoon (づ ●─● ) it’s time to go to bed)
