Chapter 353: The Last Day of the Feihai Battle
August 12, 290 AD in the Britannia Empire.
19:37 pm.
Crimson Sea Plains, Britannia Army Camp, Alyssa and Hazel's Camp.
After a day of fighting, Alyssa had taken off her heavy armor and was only wearing a piece of cloth. She sat on her bed and took a nap.
Since the start of the "Xia Feng" offensive, Alyssa has hardly stopped for more than a month.
First, he served as the commander-in-chief of the vanguard force, led the vanguard force to clear the way, encountered Barr's main force, successfully attacked Barr's main force, and defeated Barr's main force with 7,000 cavalry.
Then he joined forces with Albert's large army and served as the commander of the assault brigade on the Urla Plain, making great contributions to the victory of the Urla Battle.
Then he fought the Battle of Sola, taking over the command of the rear troops, tearing apart the blockade of Luo Lin's army, and opening the way for the entire army to retreat.
Later, he and Albert led the remnants of the Central Route Army to join forces with Allen's West Route Army outside the Feihai Plain to form a joint force to fight against Barr's 150,000-strong army, and started what should be this "Xia Feng" offensive.
The final battle is the Battle of Feihai.
In this 13-day Battle of Feihai, Alyssa also contributed a lot. Yesterday, she proactively requested to lead the army to cover the retreat of the large forces. Today, she was ordered to defend against the enemy forces on the left.
The fatigue accumulated from days of fighting has made Alyssa now to the point where she will doze off as long as she relaxes a little.
Alyssa, who was so tired that she didn't even want to talk anymore, had just entrusted Hazel to help prepare her dinner, while she returned to the camp to rest as much as possible.
However, although Alyssa is asleep now, several years of military career have long made Alyssa very sensitive, and Alyssa can sense any slightest disturbance.
After hearing the curtain of her tent being lifted, Alyssa immediately opened her eyes and looked towards the entrance and exit of the tent.
The person who entered the camp was none other than Hai Rouer.
Hairou'er was currently holding two bowls of steaming hot porridge.
"Miss Alyssa." Hazel said softly while carrying the two bowls of hot porridge towards Alyssa, "Supper is ready, let's eat."
"Ah, thank you, Hazel."
After thanking Hazel, Alyssa took a bowl of hot porridge from Hazel's hand.
After taking the bowl of hot porridge, Alyssa couldn't help but let out a soft "eh".
"Hai Rou'er, why do you always feel like you had too much dinner today?"
As soon as Alyssa finished speaking, Hazel explained with a smile:
"It's not that tonight's dinner is more, it's just that Miss Alyssa, you have more dinner. I'm not as hardworking as you, Miss Alyssa, today, so I don't consume much, so I don't need to eat."
It was too much, so I gave a little bit of my dinner to you, Miss Alyssa."
After that, Hazel also showed her bowl to Alyssa. Just as Hazel said, Hazel's dinner was obviously much less than Alyssa.
"But even if you share a little of your supper with me, it's impossible for me to have so much supper."
"Because Coach Albert also gave you some of his dinner." Hazel continued to smile, "Albert stopped me just now, then poured some of his porridge into your bowl, and said
This is to thank Miss Alyssa for your hard work today. Thanks to your hard work, Miss Alyssa, we were able to block the enemies on the left wing."
After hearing what Ha Rou'er said, Alyssa was stunned for a moment, and then showed a helpless smile.
"What's there to be thankful for? I just did what I should do."
"Thank you, Hazel, and thank you to Mr. Albert, even though he is not here. I accept the porridge from you and Mr. Albert without any courtesy. I am almost starving to death."
After saying that, Alyssa boldly raised the bowl of hot porridge in her hand, and poured the hot porridge into her mouth like water without using any spoons or utensils.
After seeing Alyssa drinking the hot porridge so boldly, Hazel smiled and picked up the hot porridge in her hand, using a small wooden spoon to put the hot porridge into her mouth one by one.
.
Although Hazel eats more politely than Alyssa, her speed at clearing the hot porridge in the bowl is no slower than Alyssa.
Because Hairouer was also very hungry at this time.
The two of them finished the hot porridge in each other's bowls almost at the same time.
"Phew, I feel alive!" Alyssa wiped the corner of her mouth with her bandaged left hand and put the empty bowl aside casually.
After finishing the hot porridge in the bowl, Hairouer smiled bitterly, looked at the empty bowl in her hand, and whispered:
"This is our second to last dinner... After our last breakfast tomorrow morning, our military rations will be exhausted..."
Hairou'er's words made Alyssa, who had just finished eating the hot porridge and had a look of happiness on her face, couldn't help but change her expression slightly.
"...That's right. Tomorrow morning's breakfast will be our last military ration." Alyssa smiled bitterly, "I regret it a bit. I should have savored the dinner just now. I shouldn't have wolfed it down like this. It feels a bit wasteful.
Woolen cloth."
"...Miss Alyssa, I may be a little rude when I say this..." Hazel said weakly, "Mr. Su Cheng...can he really come here...our military rations only have one last meal left?"
It’s time to eat, which means we can only last one more morning. Can Mr. Su Cheng lead the East Route Army to come here tomorrow morning?"
"Actually... when I was preparing dinner just now, I overheard some knights saying bad things to you, Miss Alyssa, saying that I shouldn't have been so enthusiastic at that time to support your idea and stay in Feihai Plain to wait for Su Cheng.
Reinforcements..."
"It feels like all the knights...including me are a little panicked now...Miss Alyssa, Mr. Su Cheng, can he really come in time to rescue us?"
After listening to Hazel's words, Alyssa was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a faint smile.
It's just that this faint smile is full of bitterness.
"That's right... I think so. I would feel abnormal if I didn't feel panicked."
"Hai Rou'er, you may feel strange when I say this, but I have never doubted whether Su Cheng could lead the army to rescue in time."
"I can't tell you why I trust Su Cheng so much, but if I have to say it, it might be a tacit understanding or something like that... Oops, it feels weird to say this. It sounds like I have fought side by side with Su Cheng for a long time.
Same thing."
"In short, I believe in Su Cheng, Hairou'er, are you willing to believe in Su Cheng with me? I believe that Su Cheng can turn the tide this time just like last year's rescue battle in the Lund Kingdom and arrive at the Feihai Plain in time to rescue us?
"
After listening to Alyssa's words, Hazel was stunned for a moment, then shook her head.
"I am not as familiar with Mr. Su Cheng as you are, Miss Alyssa, so I dare not say that I trust Mr. Su Cheng. But I believe in you, Miss Alyssa."
"Do you believe me... Well, that's enough, Hazel, thank you for your belief in me."
Hazel looked at Alyssa with a smile on her face.
The smile on Hairou'er's face gradually became a little weird.
subsequently
"Miss Alyssa, do you like Mr. Su Cheng?"
