Chapter 48 The 100,000 Army Expedition
Thirteen days have passed since Jacob came to Su Cheng's home and gave Su Cheng the latest information and advice.
Morning, October 21, 289 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire.
The day when 100,000 troops went out to rescue the Kingdom of Lund.
At this time, on the outskirts of Pendragon, one-third of the troops of the Gabriel Knights, a total of 100,000 troops, formed five large square formations.
Each large square represents an army, and five large squares represent five armies.
The total strength of the Gabriel Knights is 300,000, and according to the army regulations of the Britannian Empire, one army is 20,000 people. This means that the Gabriel Knights have a total of 15 armies, and in this time
In the battle to rescue the Kingdom of Lund, the 1st Army, 3rd Army, 6th Army, 7th Army, and 10th Army were deployed to participate in this battle.
Many Pendragon civilians have now arrived at the place where the army is gathering. Not far from the 100,000-strong army, they have formed a large arc and are watching the heroic appearance of the knights' soldiers from a distance.
The morning sun poured down from the clouds, shining on the armors and weapons of the soldiers, reflecting silver light waves. The dazzling light waves swept into the eyes of the people watching the excitement, causing many people to scream.
Many people helplessly raised a hand to block the dazzling waves of light.
A blond beauty wearing white and gold armor, and a black-haired man wearing white and blue armor were standing in front of the 10th Army's formation.
It's Alyssa and Su Cheng.
Because Su Cheng's current position is the deputy commander of the 10th Army, and Alyssa is the commander of the 10th Army, with a lower position than Alyssa, so Su Cheng paid special attention to this point and stood beside Alyssa.
A little behind.
Alan and Deng Jiaer, who were Su Cheng's knights, stood behind Su Cheng.
Both of them put on the white and light blue armors, and Alan was holding the extremely heavy and extremely lethal black ax gun in his hand.
Now, the 100,000 troops, including Su Cheng, are silently waiting for the appearance of Nicholas Alva, the commander-in-chief of this battle and the deputy commander of the Gabriel Knights.
Now we are waiting for Nicholas to appear, climb on the improvised simple platform in front of the 100,000-strong army, and deliver a pre-war mobilization speech, and then the army can set off.
However, after waiting for almost 20 minutes, Nicholas was still nowhere to be seen.
Alan yawned out of boredom. While yawning, her eyes accidentally caught a glimpse of Su Cheng, who was standing in front of him, wearing a bracelet on his left wrist. It was Kailuoer's bracelet.
Kailuoer also lent her bracelet to Su Cheng this time, hoping that Su Cheng could come back safely this time.
"Brother, you are so kind." Alan said in a joking tone, "Every time I receive a bracelet from Kai Luo, why doesn't Kai Luo give me one?"
Su Cheng replied with a smile: "Because Kailuo only has one bracelet."
Just then
"Quiet! Don't talk!" Alyssa suddenly turned her head towards Su Cheng and Alan scolded.
After hearing Alyssa's scolding, Alan frowned, but he still calmed down obediently and stopped talking.
However, not long after, a familiar voice came into Su Cheng's ears.
"Teacher Cheng! Teacher Cheng!"
Su Cheng, Alyssa and others followed the sound and saw a loli with silver hair and purple eyes running towards them while waving at them.
"Ilsa?" Su Cheng looked surprised, "Why are you here?"
After seeing Ilsa, Alyssa, who was standing in front of Su Cheng, quickly saluted Ilsa and said: "Your Highness Ilsa, good morning! I haven't seen you for a long time."
Although Deng Jiaer and Alan didn't know Ilsa, they saw that Alyssa, as a Knight of Two Oaks, actually saluted this little lolita. They must have an unusual identity, so the two of them also
He saluted Ilsa in the same way.
"Yeah, no need to salute." Ilsa quickly waved her hand.
"Your Highness Ilsa, what are you doing here?" Alyssa asked the same question as Su Cheng, "This is not a place for you to come, go back quickly!"
"I'm here to see you off."
After saying that, Ilsa showed a cute smile.
"Send off?"
Su Cheng and Alyssa both showed surprised expressions.
"Well, that's right!"
As Ilsa spoke, she took two steps forward and came to Su Cheng and Alyssa. Then she raised her two small hands, one grabbed Su Cheng's hand, and the other
He just grabbed Alyssa's hand and raised it.
Ilsa raised her head and looked at the faces of Su Cheng and Alyssa seriously.
"You two must come back safely! You must, you must!"
Looking at Ilsa's serious face, Su Cheng couldn't help but feel a little warm in his chest.
Su Cheng's hand held by Ilsa exerted a little force, squeezed Ilsa's soft little hand slightly, and said in a firm tone: "Ah! I promise you! I will come back safely!"
Alyssa on the side also said with a serious face and a firm tone: "Yes! Your Highness Ilsa, I promise you, I will return safely."
Seeing that both of them had promised him, Ilsa smiled happily, and then let go of Alyssa and Su Cheng's hands.
Ilsa looked around at the soldiers who were waiting in formation, sighed slightly, and murmured in a voice that only she could hear: "It would be nice if there was no war."
Su Cheng was also looking around and found that except for the soldiers, there was no one else.
"Ilsa, did you come here alone?" Su Cheng asked.
"How could I come here alone?" Ilsa said helplessly, "I came here with my father, and it was only after my father agreed to let me come with him that he allowed me to enter the military formation.
I’m looking for you two. The five square formations of 100,000 people are so huge! I walked for a long time before I found you two!”
After saying that, Ilsa pouted cutely.
At this moment, Su Cheng felt some restlessness among the soldiers around him.
Su Cheng, who realized something, quickly looked forward and found two people slowly climbing up the makeshift platform.
The leader was Ilsa's father, Gael Augustus, the current crown prince of the Britannia Empire, and following Gael was the Knights of Gabriel, the supreme commander of this 100,000-strong army.
Deputy Chief of Mission Nicholas Alva.
After seeing Gale, Alyssa shrank her shoulders, and then said: "It seems that Mr. Gale really attaches great importance to this action. He is afraid that he will give a pre-war mobilization speech in person."
"Well, yes." Ilsa nodded her little head, "Father told me many times that this operation is very important. He said it many times in front of me that he was very concerned about this rescue.
We attach great importance to combat."
After hearing Ilsa's words, Alyssa and Su Cheng both swallowed in unison, and the pressure in their hearts increased.
Although the two are not the supreme commanders of this battle, they are also the commander and deputy commander of the First Army. They are senior commanders. Some of their commands and decisions will also greatly affect the outcome of this battle.
.
After Gale and Nicholas stepped onto the stage, as Alyssa expected, Gale began a pre-war mobilization speech.
Although Su Cheng felt that Gale's mobilization speech was not very exciting, looking at Gale who was standing on the balcony giving a mobilization speech, he couldn't help but feel a little stirred in his heart.
I thought to myself: How cool would it be if I could stand on a high platform like this in the future and give a pre-war mobilization speech to the army below?
Gale's mobilization speech was not too long and was finished quickly. After the mobilization, 100,000 soldiers waved their weapons and shouted in unison!
Deng Jiaer and Alan were also infected by the atmosphere, raising their fists high and shouting loudly.
Chapter completed!
