Chapter 718: Accepting a Mission in a Time of Crisis (Part 1)
Holy Hiran Empire, Muhawicz Fortress.
"You seem tired lately, El."
After hearing this familiar voice, Erxun shouted.
Camille was seen standing behind him with a smile.
"Does this need to be said?" El said with a bitter smile, "I've been very tired recently... Sorry, Camille, I don't have the energy or mood to chat now. Let me have a good rest alone..."
General Dong's early arrival caused the Xilan Army's logistical supplies to collapse.
In order to get the logistics supply back to normal as soon as possible, the quartermasters, whether high or low, all work hard and work tirelessly.
With the efforts of the logistics force headed by quartermasters, they have finally succeeded in sending 120,000 winter war equipment to the front line.
But still can't relax.
After all, there are still 150,000 vacancies on the front line.
According to reports from the frontline troops, those soldiers who have not yet received winter combat equipment are particularly dissatisfied due to the delay in the arrival of winter combat equipment.
If sufficient winter war equipment is not delivered in time, there may be a risk of mutiny.
It would not be a joke if an army of this size rebelled!
Therefore, even though winter war equipment for 120,000 people has been successfully delivered, the logistics troops have not stopped.
Not only did he not stop, he was even more tired than before.
As a third-class quartermaster, El was so busy these days that he only had a pitiful 4 hours of sleep.
He was in desperate need of rest, and now he finally got a rare break.
However, just as he was about to take a nap, Camille arrived.
El subconsciously thought that Camille, who was white and had no job, was here to play with him.
El didn't even have the energy to chat with his friends now, so he quickly said that he was very tired now and wanted to take a good rest.
After listening to El's words, Camille curled her lips:
"I'm not here to play with you, I'm here to give you a message."
"Sending a message? What news?"
"The teacher who is on the front line of the Eghar Corridor has just asked a messenger to bring a message: the teacher wants you to rush to the front line camp immediately. He wants to see you for something."
"Teacher?" El frowned, "What does the teacher want me to do... When does the teacher want me to come over?"
"Didn't I just say it? It was [immediately]." Kamil pointed downward, "The teacher wants you to leave for the frontline camp now."
"Now?!" El exclaimed.
"That's right." Camille nodded, "The teacher has helped you ask for leave from the logistics team and also borrowed a horse for you. You can go to Stable No. 3 later and tell the people there that you belong to Marshal Dominic. "Student, they will bring you a horse, and you can ride this horse to the frontline camp."
"...For some reason, I always feel that the teacher is so eager to find me this time, and there is definitely nothing good going on."
"I think so too." Camille echoed. "When the teacher first took you, me and Gabriel in, he was always like this. He suddenly asked you to go to his room, and then started a long heart-to-heart talk with you. He persuaded you to join the army, and even after you became a quartermaster, he still persisted in persuading you to become a general.
"
"Yeah, it was really hard back then." El smiled bitterly.
After saying that, El stood up.
He straightened his quartermaster uniform.
"Forget it, I won't think too much. Since the teacher asked me to go over, I have to go. Then I will leave now. I can also go and see Gabriel. I don't know how well Gabriel is recovering now. how's it going."

at the same time.
A certain sea area in the western part of the Britannia Empire.
Wow!
A big wave came and hit the transport ship Darlene was riding on.
"Whoa!"
The soldiers sitting on the transport ship immediately fell on their backs.
Fortunately, when the big waves hit, Darlene grabbed the thick rope above their heads for them to hold on to and maintain their shape, so they were not knocked to the ground.
"Sit tight! Hold on tight! The sea ahead is not very calm! There will be big waves coming from time to time! Pay attention!"
After hearing the shouts from the sailors on board, all the soldiers in the cabin immediately sat down and grabbed the thick ropes above their heads.
In this transport ship, in addition to the generals and soldiers of the 1st Squadron of the 17th Brigade of the 4th Army, there were also two other brigades.
Although the cabin was filled with 300 people, because the cabin was very open, even though there were many people, it did not feel crowded or stuffy.
Previously, the squadron to which Darlene belonged had secretly left the fortress and came to Port Lot to receive boating training.
Darlene, who was born in a rural area in the north, has never seen the sea in her life, let alone been on a warship.
During her first boat training, in the bumpy cabin, Darlene vomited to the point of vomiting her intestines.
After a long period of training, Darlene gradually adapted to the feeling of riding a boat in the sea.
Although she no longer vomits, Darlene still feels very uncomfortable when sitting on a bumpy boat.
Just as the sailors accompanying the army said just now, the sea in front of them was very unstable.
Big waves came one after another.
Even though all the soldiers in the cabin had been trained to ride the boat, there were still a few who couldn't stand the bumpy feeling and vomited while holding their barrels.
The superiors were also careful. They knew that there would always be some people who would still get seasick, so each transport ship was equipped with a certain number of wooden barrels for those who would still get seasick.
Sitting on the ship, you can neither read nor exercise. In order to kill time, Darlena kept wiping her armor, combat boots and other equipment.
While Darlena was polishing her combat boots, Yara, who was sitting next to her, said to Darlena to kill time:
"Darlena, where do you think we are going now? Aren't the hundreds of thousands of Hiran troops still in the Aighar Corridor? Why do we have to leave the front line?"
For the sake of secrecy, no one except the knights knew the details of this operation.
Even the captains didn't know where they were going now.
If even the captains didn't know, let alone the pawns like them.
"How do I know where we are going now..." Darlena replied, "It doesn't matter where we go. As long as we faithfully carry out the orders from above, we don't have to worry about other things."

At the same time-
Fleet, flagship Hyperion, combat command room.
"Commander! The vanguard is only 30 miles away from the waters of the Holy Xilan Empire!"
After listening to the report of the messenger, Mud, the commander-in-chief of the navy, gradually became serious.
"Order all ships!" Mud ordered, "Let them all be on their guard! We are about to enter the waters of the Holy Xilan Empire! By then, it will not be surprising to encounter the patrol fleet of the Holy Xilan Empire at any time and place!"
"Let the patrol ships outside the fleet step up their vigilance!"
"And let the guerrilla fleet be ready to fight at any time! Once the patrol ship discovers the patrol fleet or fishing boat of the Holy Xilan Empire, the guerrilla fleet must immediately rush forward to kill! We must not let the Holy Xilan Empire find us!"
"Yes!"
