Chapter 464 The Fifth Army
“Damn it!”
Looking at the Second Legion that was completely defeated, Conbart''s face almost turned pale. He didn''t expect that the other party would have such power. How is that possible? Even the demons could not have such strength, but now... they were defeated so easily by these **** chess pieces!
“Retreat, retreat!”
There was no choice but to choose to retreat. He was not a fool, so he could naturally see that if he persisted, he was the only one who was unlucky.
But what made Conbart even more angry was...
"Where is the Fifth Army? Where did they go?!"
Unfortunately, the Fifth Army cannot hear Conbart''s complaints at the moment. Of course, even if you hear them, you can''t do anything.
Because the general of the Fifth Army - Rolex Gadras and his adjutant Orore are currently being locked in the prison of Storri 13.
"Hey, I really didn''t expect that we would be arrested."
Lying on the straw pile and looking at the dark ceiling in front of you, Rolex whistled.
Of course, the Fifth Legion also received instructions from the Council, but this guerrilla army with only 10,000 people was always erratic on weekdays, and when they received the order, they were on the eastern border. Then when the Fifth Legion planned to withdraw the Bonn Fortress and the First and Second Legion gathered, Duanmuhuai had already directly defeated the Bonn Fortress.
In this case, the Fifth Legion will certainly not be stupid enough to fall into the trap, but as a guerrilla legion, they also have their own strengths.
Therefore, after learning that the Bonn Fortress had been occupied and the Fourth Legion sent some soldiers to follow the Iron Giant to leave Storry 13 to Bonn Fortress, the Fifth Legion Commander Rolex made a decision.
That was to make a detour and raid Storri 13 directly from the rear, attacking the Fourth Corps headquarters!
His thoughts were similar to General Cleolev. The Fourth Legion had 40,000 people at first, but more than 10,000 casualties were killed or killed in the battle with the Inquisition, and some of them ran away. The information I received at that time was that the Fourth Legion had only 20,000 people at most. The Bonn Fortress must require at least 3,000 soldiers to control it. At present, the Fourth Legion has sent some of its men, which means that the Fourth Legion soldiers stationed in Storry 13 will only have more than 10,000 yuan to survive, which is similar to the Fifth Legion.
Although the number of people is similar, Rolex does not think that the combat power is similar. After all, as a guerrilla legion, the Fifth Legion itself is expensive, but what about the Fourth Legion? To put it bluntly, it is a waste legion used to restrain when other countries invade. It is like a new recruit and a super agent. No matter how you look at it, the Fifth legion is more combat-effective!
So Rolex took advantage of the dark and windy night to raid Storry13, trying to completely annihilate the command center of the Fourth Army and seize the commander and general of the Fourth Army.
And then...well, he was locked up here.
The reason for the failure of the Fifth Legion is actually very simple. It is not a strategy or a strong general. It is simply a difference in numbers.
Yes, Rolex expects the Fourth Legion to have only 10,000 soldiers.
But when he entered the city, he found that there were actually as many as 50,000 soldiers in the Fourth Legion!
Damn, is this going to kill someone?
So after discovering that the other party had a large number of troops and was weak and surrounded, Rolex decisively chose to surrender and save his life - he was not the dog of the Council, and he did not need to devote himself to the Council until his death.
So he was locked up here.
“Dadadada…”
Just as Rolex was bored and counting the stains on the ceiling, footsteps came from afar, and then he saw a soldier walking to Rolex''s cage and handing the food in the plate through the fence.
“Your dinner today.”
"Oh, it''s finally time to eat."
Hearing this good news, Rolex hurriedly jumped up and came to the fence. As prisoners, of course, they could not have any particularly rich food. They only ate hard bread, a small piece of jerky meat and a bowl of soup. Of course, for prisoners, this was already good.
If it were someone else, he might have frowned in the face of such a simple dinner, but Rolex, as the general of the Fifth Legion, had spent his time in guerrilla. He had encountered any kind of simple situation, so he took a piece of cold bread without any concern and put it in his mouth, while looking at the soldier in front of him.
"Hey, boy."
"What''s up?"
Hearing Rolex''s words, the soldier stood opposite him, surveillanced them while asking.
"I remember you. You played well before and beat several of my subordinates."
Looking at the young man in front of him, Rolex couldn''t help but praise him.
"I really didn''t expect that the Fourth Army still has talents like this? Which class did you graduate?"
"graduate?"
Hearing Rolex''s inquiry, the young man snorted softly.
"I don''t know what you are talking about. I only joined the Fourth Legion."
"Just join?"
"That''s right, after the Fourth Legion liberated Stori 13, I signed up to join the Fourth Legion. Before that, I was just a blacksmith apprentice."
"etc………"
Hearing this, Rolex was stunned for a moment.
"In other words, you have only joined the Fourth Legion for less than a month? Then why are you working so hard??"
Rolex still remembers that this young man worked very **** the battlefield. Although he was very immature, his momentum of exchanging life for life was indeed amazing. In fact, it was not just him, but many soldiers of the Fourth Legion were also like this. As the saying goes, if you are arrogant, you are afraid of being stunned, and if you are stunned, you are afraid of being desperate. The Fifth Legion is not stupid, how could it fight to the death with a group of guys who don’t even want their own lives?
So Rolex finally chose to surrender.
At that time, he just thought that these soldiers were fighting for the Fourth Legion, and he also lamented that the current commander of the Fourth Legion actually had such charm. Now he heard...
Good guy, you have only joined the Fourth Legion for a month?
Then why are you working so hard?
Rolex hasn''t seen anyone want to die.
"Of course it''s to protect my family!"
“That’s right.”
The young soldier nodded vigorously and looked at Rolex.
"You guys may not know at all, what kind of life we ??lived before the Fourth Legion came here! If you can''t eat enough, you can only get frozen in winter! Those **** guards beat us as soon as they want, and the nobles treated us like beasts!"
Speaking here, the young soldier clenched his fists.
"But the Fourth Legion came, everything changed! All the nobles who had ridden on our heads were beheaded and the guards who bullied us were driven away! And they also took out all the food of the nobles and distributed it to us..."
At this moment, the young soldier seemed to think of something and became more and more angry.
"You don''t know what we saw when we went to the warehouses of the nobles. Such big pieces of meat would be left at our house for a year. But for them, they were thrown in the corner like garbage, letting them get moldy! And those grains, vegetables, and fruits. We can''t even eat them, but they thrown in the stinky ditch like garbage...!"
“………………”
Hearing the roar of the young soldier, Rolex didn''t say anything. Of course he knew the virtues of the nobles, but he didn''t expect that those nobles would be like this... Well, actually, it''s not surprising that they thought about it carefully.
“Now that we finally live the life we ??expected, we will never let someone destroy them!”
As he said, the young soldier stared at Rolex fiercely.
"What kind of council, what kind of nobles, what kind of emperors! I don''t care! I only know that the Fourth Legion killed the nobles who bullied my family, distributed food to us, and made the city safer. Everyone doesn''t have to worry about being faulted by the guards or soldiers, and they won''t be bullied by the nobles! If you want to take all this, even if I fight for this life, I will stop you!"
“……… So you joined the Fourth Legion?”
“That’s right.”
“………”
Hearing the young soldier''s decisive answer, Rolex sighed, feeling that the bread in his hand was no longer fragrant.
Now, he finally understood how the Fourth Legion, which had nominally only 10,000 people left, had so many more people.
Thinking of this, Rolex raised his head and looked at the young soldier in front of him.
"Hey, boy, tell your Legion commander, I have something to say to her."
I have to say that when Krim learned the news, she was still very surprised, but Krim still came to prison to meet Rolex.
"Hello, General Rolex."
"Okay OK, now I''m your prisoner, so there''s no need to do such etiquette anymore."
Looking at Krim in front of him, Rolex waved his hand, and then he looked at Krim curiously.
"I came to you, just want to inquire about something... why do you do this?"
"I don''t understand what you mean, General Rolex, you mean..."
“I heard the boy say it all, and while talking, Rolex pointed to the young soldier standing next to him.
"You not only occupied this city, but also killed the nobles of this city and distributed their property to others... Why are you doing this? Are you simply buying the hearts of the people?"
"It''s not wrong for you to understand this way."
Faced with Rolex''s inquiry, Krim seemed very calm.
"We need strength, but we cannot stand on the side of the nobles and the Council, so we only have one choice."
“Indeed, Herman is terrible now.”
Rolex nodded.
"Now Hermann is like a piece of rotten bread, full of disgusting maggots. They chew the bread with holes everywhere, and they almost lost their true form... So, how do you plan to change all this?"
"I know very well that changing all this is not a simple thing. In fact, the judge also told me that if we simply overturn the Council of Comments, it is impossible to make any changes to the status quo. To solve all this, we must make thorough rectification from bottom to top, and this is what we are doing."
“…………”
Hearing this, Rolex frowned.
"You mean, are you going to push this into all Hermann cities?"
"certainly."
Krem nodded.
"What we want to do is to completely change the country, not just change a master. If Emperor Sheila does not have that ability, then what is the difference between her and Prime Minister Steeser even if she regained power?"
“And that’s why you do this.”
Hearing this, Rolex smiled excitedly, and then he stared at Krem and said.
"It sounds quite interesting, why not count me as one...how?"
