Chapter 249: The Eastern Route Army Operation Begins (Part 2)
July 16, 290 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire.
20:20 in the evening.
Southern front line, East Route Army camp.
Tonight is a moonless night.
Thick clouds separated the sky from the earth, and also separated the moonlight from the military camp of the Eastern Route Army on the ground. starter
However, although there is no moonlight, with the help of the lights all over the East Route Army camp, the East Route Army camp is still bright.
Deng Jiaer, who was fully clothed in armor, was holding a long sword on his left waist, standing on a hill next to the cavalry camp of the East Route Army camp, overlooking the East Route Army camp filled with lights.
——To be more precise, it was the cavalry camp overlooking the Eastern Route Army camp below.
At this time, the cavalry camp was no longer as lively and busy as it was during the day.
The Eastern Route Army's only 5,000 cavalrymen and 10,000 war horses were already waiting quietly in the corridors and open spaces of the cavalry camp.
——Waiting for his commander’s order to march.
The 5,000 cavalry are already ready to march. With just one order, the cavalry team that has completed their march preparations can rush towards the south with overwhelming force.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
Except for a very small number of generals, no one among the 5,000 cavalry knew what they were going to do when they went south this time. They only generally knew that they were going south this time to perform a series of important combat missions.
Although they knew nothing about the combat mission they were about to carry out this time, none of the 5,000 cavalry showed any fear on their faces.
Although the tasks of the East Route Army can be said to be the least important and easiest among the three armies, the empire did not send some "crooked melons and dates" to Su Cheng just because the tasks of the East Route Army were the easiest.
The East Route Army under Su Cheng's command, composed of the 4th Army and the 8th Army of the Rachel Knights, is only slightly inferior to the Central Route Army and the West Route Army in terms of strength. If we look at the combat effectiveness of the army alone, it is definitely not inferior to the other two. Road army.
This can be seen from the expressions of the 5,000 cavalry before the combat mission began.
Even though they knew they were about to rush to the battlefield to complete a combat mission whose details were still unknown, none of the 5,000 cavalry showed fear on their faces.
There were even some people chatting and laughing with their colleagues next to them.
Seeing their relaxed expressions, uninformed people might have thought that this cavalry team was going on an outing instead of going to the battlefield.
Thanks to the lights that spread all over the camp and illuminated the whole camp as brightly as day, Deng Jiaer, standing on the top of the hill next to the cavalry camp, could use the light of these lights to see. Clearly aware of the expressions on the faces of the cavalry below.
Looking at the fearless expressions on the faces of the cavalry below, Deng Jiaer's face showed a few complicated expressions, and then he let out a long sigh.
Just when Deng Jiaer let out a long sigh——
"It's already time for the battle to begin. Why are you still here looking at the scenery and sighing?"
——A familiar male voice came from behind.
"gentlemen……"
Deng Jiaer murmured his usual name for the owner of the voice, and turned his head to look at Su Cheng, who was walking towards her with a smile on his face.
In addition to Su Cheng, Willy, who served as the deputy commander of the East Route Army and Su Cheng's adjutant,
He was also following closely behind Su Cheng.
After seeing these two people, Deng Jiaer immediately turned around and gave a standard military salute to them.
Su Cheng waved his hand towards Deng Jiaer, indicating that she didn't need to engage in such nonsense.
When Su Cheng waved his hand to signal Deng Jiaer not to salute them, Su Cheng happened to walk to Deng Jiaer's side.
After walking to Deng Jiaer's side, Su Cheng repeated his question:
"Deng Jiaer, why are you here alone looking at the scenery? I seemed to hear you sighing just now."
After hearing Su Cheng's question, Deng Jiaer was silent for a while.
After being silent for a while, Deng Jiaer sighed, and then asked in a weak tone:
"Sir... I think about it carefully now... You entrust the lives of these 5,000 cavalry to me, and let me implement the battle plan that I think is random in retrospect... Is this... really good..."
Deng Jiaer's tone became weaker and weaker.
When she said the last word, her tone was as weak as a whisper.
After listening to Deng Jiaer's questions full of self-doubt and lack of confidence, Su Cheng fell silent for a while.
"Deng Jiaer." After a moment of silence, Su Cheng broke the silence and said, "You should also know about my, Su Cheng's first battle, right?"
Although Su Cheng's sentence was a question, before Deng Jiaer could answer, Su Cheng continued to talk to himself:
"Looking back now, it feels incredible."
"At that time, I was still in class with Ilsa. Halfway through the class, I was interrupted by the waiter, saying that His Majesty the Emperor had summoned me."
"After I met His Majesty the Emperor, His Majesty the Emperor directly said that he would give me a counter-insurgency task and asked me if I would accept it."
"Afterwards, I learned that Mr. Jacob had won for me this counter-rebellion task. Mr. Jacob appreciated my talents, so he recommended me to His Majesty the Emperor as the commander-in-chief of the counter-rebellion army. .”
"After I learned that Mr. Jacob recommended me, I have been thinking about a question, that is, why did Mr. Jacob feel so confident in letting me serve as the commander-in-chief of the counter-rebellion army, and why did Mr. Jacob so confidently entrust me with the lives of 5,000 people? "
Speaking of this, Su Cheng tilted his head and said to Deng Jiaer in a joking tone:
"Isn't it similar to your current troubles?"
Deng Jiaer nodded seriously.
"I have always wanted to find an opportunity to ask Mr. Jacob why he is so relieved of me." Su Cheng continued, "But now that I think about it, I no longer need to ask. I have already found the answer to this question myself. ”
After saying that, Su Cheng turned sideways, pointed his body towards Deng Jiaer, looked directly at Deng Jiaer, and then said:
"Deng Jiaer, I deeply trust you and believe that you will be able to complete the battle plan you have conceived."
"Because I deeply believe in you, I entrust you with this mission and the lives of these 5,000 cavalrymen."
"I believe that Mr. Jacob should have thought so at the time. He believed in me deeply, so he recommended me to His Majesty the Emperor and trusted me with the lives of 5,000 people."
"Believe...me...?"
The confusion and doubt on Deng Jiaer's face slowly dissipated.
Instead, a look of determination slowly appeared on his face.
"gentlemen."
Deng Jiaer showed Su Cheng a smile full of gratitude.
"Thank you for trusting me. "
"I'm not the only one who trusts you. There's also Alan, and my good lieutenant."
Su Cheng smiled and raised his hand to press Willy, who had been standing quietly behind him and Deng Jiaer since just now.
"Well... it's not so much that I trust Miss Deng Jiaer..." Enli said with some embarrassment, "I trust the coach, so I trust the coach's judgment. Since the coach said that you will definitely be able to make the battle a success, then I also I am willing to believe that Miss Deng Jiaer, you will definitely make the battle a success!"
Deng Jiaer turned his eyes and passed over the faces of Su Cheng and Willy one by one.
Looking at their faces and listening to their words, Deng Jiaer was moved by endless power, which seemed to be pouring out of his body.
Deng Jiaer took a deep breath, and then said seriously:
"Sir. I don't know if I really have superior military talents as sir said."
"However, even if I don't have superior military talent, I will try my best to squeeze out the military talent I don't have! I will definitely complete the battle!"
"Sir! Just watch carefully from the camp of the Eastern Route Army! I will definitely complete the battle! I will never let down the trust of you, sir, Alan, and Mr. Willy!"
After saying that, Deng Jiaer gave a standard military salute to Su Cheng and Willy.
After listening to Deng Jiaer's powerful declaration and seeing her standard military salute, Su Cheng and Willy smiled in unison, and then they also gave Deng Jiaer a standard British salute. The military ceremony of the Niya Empire.
