Chapter 611: First Battle (Part 1)
Britannia Empire, northern border, Lygasus Mountains (Mount Bra).
On this day, the Helay tribe and the Kolan tribe, the only two tribes still remaining on Mount Bra and planning to resist the Britannias to the end, became "lively".
Because they received news that the Britannias began to send troops to attack the mountain!
According to reports from the soldiers responsible for monitoring the movements of the Britannia, the Britannia sent at least 300 people up the mountain this time.
After learning the news, the Helay and Kolam tribes immediately started operations.
Elite warriors from their tribe were sent to stop the group of Britannias who started to go up the mountain.
At this time - the Helay tribe.
"Moka, are you nervous?" Tohru asked Moka who was running next to him.
Moka followed closely behind the large army while arranging his bows, arrows, swords and other weapons.
"I'm not nervous." Moka smiled, "Because I can finally fight against the Britannia. Not only am I not nervous, I'm also a little excited at this time."
"Hahaha! Me too!" Tru's eyes were burning with fighting spirit, "I am also very excited to finally have a battle with the Britannia people! We must let the Britannia people see our sharp!"
There are currently 418 soldiers in the Helay tribe.
Because this would be the first battle with the Britannia, for the sake of safety, Nalu sent most of his warriors from the Hellai tribe - a full 250 warriors to the frontline battlefield.
At this time, Luge stood on a high ground somewhere in the Helai tribe, watching 250 soldiers, including his friends, rush to the front line.
His eyes were full of sadness.
In a tone that only he could hear clearly, he said to himself:
"How can we defeat the Britons... I hope fewer people will die this time..."
…
…
Lygasus Mountains (Mount Bra), somewhere on the southern slopes.
"Darlene,
Darlene. "
Yara lowered her voice and continued to speak to Darlene who was walking next to her:
"We finally went to the battlefield and fought face to face with the enemy... What should I do? I'm so nervous. My palms are all sweaty now, and my heart is beating so fast..."
"Me too..." Darlene smiled bitterly, and also lowered her voice and said to Yara, "I'm so nervous too... I didn't expect that we would be on the battlefield so soon..."
During such a march, chatting was strictly prohibited, so the two of them only dared to lower their voices and talk in a low voice that only they could hear clearly.
Su Cheng mobilized half of the 4th Army of the Michael Knights to form a plain barbarian army, responsible for pacifying Mount Bra.
The 17th Brigade where Darlene belonged happened to be one of the 10 brigades that were sent to attack Mount Bra.
After arriving at the foot of the Ligasos Mountains, the 1st Squadron of the 17th Battalion, where Darlene belonged, was transferred to drive away the merchants who had set up a trading point at the foot of the Ligasos Mountains to do business with the barbarians. .
After driving away the mountain barbarians who set up a trade point and did business with the mountain barbarians, they experienced a long period of boredom with nothing to do and only training every day.
Then, last night, they suddenly received a request to play!
Tomorrow morning, the 1st Squadron, 2nd Squadron, and 3rd Squadron of their 17th Group will take the lead in climbing the mountain and launch the first wave of exploratory attacks on the mountain barbarians.
After learning that they were finally going to fight face to face with the barbarians, some people were excited and some were afraid.
But more than anything, I felt nervous.
Darlene and her friend Yara are the kind of people who get nervous when they learn there's going to be a war.
They even had insomnia last night because they were so nervous.
After spending a sleepless night, the moment the sun first hit the earth, the members of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Squadron of the 17th Brigade were ready to march towards the Lygasus Mountains.
Lindsay, the squadron leader of their 1st squadron, was temporarily appointed as the commander-in-chief of these three squadrons during this battle.
While leading these three squadrons towards the Lygasos Mountains, Lindsay also encouraged the soldiers of these three squadrons from time to time:
"Don't be nervous, everyone! Don't be afraid! Just apply the skills you usually practice on the training ground here!"
"The mountain barbarians are just a bunch of savages! Compared with the brave and well-equipped northerners, they are nothing! Your first battle turned out to be such weak and bully savages. You are so lucky! In my first battle back then, I fought against people from the North Country! It was so unlucky!”
Northland - is the common name of the Holy Hiram Empire by the Britons.
Of course, there are also people who like to call the Holy Hiran Empire the Snow Kingdom, but there are very few such people.
Britannias like to call the Holy Hiran Empire the Northern Kingdom, the Frankish Empire the Eastern Kingdom, and the Rollin Empire the Southern Kingdom.
The reason why Lindsay kept cheering for the soldiers of these three squadrons was because these three squadrons were all new recruits who had never been on the battlefield.
It should be said that the soldiers of the 17th Brigade are all new recruits who have not yet been on the battlefield and have not yet fought face to face with the enemy.
They were all new recruits recruited when the Michael Knights reconstruction plan was launched at the end of last year.
Although their training time is sufficient and they have mastered everything they need to learn, they have no experience on the battlefield.
Many recruits are extremely nervous when they first enter the battlefield.
Therefore, in order to ease the tension of these new recruits, Lindsay kept speaking and encouraging the soldiers of the three squadrons.
Lindsay's encouragement was still useful.
After listening to Lindsay's words, many soldiers' pale and cyan faces also improved a little.
"Dalina."
Yara lowered her voice again and said to Darina who was walking beside her:
"Why didn't Commander Lindsay explain to us? Explain why you only kill people from the Helai tribe and not the people from the Kelan tribe."
After they received the request to go to war last night, they also received a strange request.
That is, after sending troops to attack the mountain tomorrow morning, only people from the Helai tribe should be killed, and people from the Kelan tribe should not be killed.
When facing people from the Kelan tribe, just knock them out, and don't kill them unless it is absolutely necessary.
After telling them this strange request, they were taught how to distinguish who is from the Helai tribe and who is from the Kelan tribe by their clothes.
When they started marching towards the Ligasos Mountains, the officers led by Lindsay checked each of them one by one to see if they knew how to distinguish who was from the Helai tribe and who was from the Kolan tribe by their clothing.
After hearing Yara's question, Darlene shrugged: "Captain Lindsay may not know why he only kills people from the Helai tribe."
"But we don't need to think too much. We just need to follow the orders given by the commander and kill only people from the Helai tribe."
"Yeah." Yara nodded, "That's right."
Swish, swish, swish!
At this moment, a large number of arrows suddenly shot from the bushes on both sides of the marching column of their three squadrons.
These large numbers of arrows instantly enveloped the three squadrons.
"Enemy attack! Meet the enemy!"
As these arrows enveloped them, Lindsay's sharp shouts also rang out, echoing in everyone's ears.
