Fine snowflakes are flying in the air, the sky is gloomy, and the biting cold wind whizzes across the peaks, making people feel cold and shiver unconsciously. Stamping his feet that were numb from the cold, Galini Bailuoput stood on a high cliff, looking at the chaotic camp of the Norton Family Armed Rock Legion in the distance.
From time to time, some soldiers came out of the camp, took off their armor, took off their trousers, and pissed at Mount Bodrichi. There was faint laughter and arrogant shouting in the wind: "Fools, the uncle is going back to Wodong, you are going Stay on the mountain and let the wind blow! Hahaha... "
Then a few officers came out of the camp and kicked the soldiers a few times, probably urging them to pack up... Another hour or so later, the first group of 3,000 people set off, and they lined up holding banners The orderly team was heading towards the southwest of the Southern Province, and they could faintly be heard singing war songs in a cheerful mood, and occasionally a somewhat obscene folk tune, accompanied by a burst of laughter and applause...
It seems that they should really go back to Wodong, otherwise the mood of these soldiers would not be so relaxed and cheerful. Bai Luoput tightened the cowhide coat wrapped around his body, feeling cold and heavy. When the Principality of Melain was destroyed and the troops were withdrawn, the soldiers of the Third Frontier Ranger Regiment also sang songs and set foot on the return journey. Although the casualties were a bit heavy that time, everyone had fought for a long time and believed in life and death. In addition, the private harvest is very rich, so the morale is still high.
But now? The enemy swaggered back to Wodong, while the Third Frontier Ranger Regiment still had to stay on the cold Bob Ridge Mountain to suffer from the wind and freeze. The morale of the whole army was low, especially now that it was snowing lightly, and the furs needed by the Legion Wodong There is still a big shortage of winter supplies. His Royal Highness also wrote a letter, saying that the family has done their best, because they did not expect to be suddenly attacked by the four northern alliances this year, so that the family did not have enough supplies at all. A large number of supplies are not military supplies for the winter, but more livelihood supplies...
Bai Loput did not complain about Grand Duke Feisabrun. As a playmate who grew up with the Grand Duke when he was a child, he knew very well that it was helpless for the Grand Duke to write this letter to explain to him. In his impression, since he was a child, the Grand Duke Fesabrun was arrogant. He looked down on the decadent nobles of the former Krissen Empire, even if they were regarded as barbarians from the grassland by those nobles. He is known as the God of the Grassland Army, and he has made great achievements in opening up the territory of the empire, but he has been suppressed by the nobles of the former empire. It was not until the three kings of the empire competed for the throne and the civil war broke out that the Grand Duke was considered to be off his body The imprisonment of Donghuang Province and Muyeyuan Province has the military and administrative power to deal with it...,
It's a pity that the grand duke's plan will be implemented in only one year, and at that time, the Feisabrun family will be able to become the real overlord of the Northeast region, and it may even be possible to build a real kingdom on their own in the future , that is the real peak for the Feisabrun family. It's just that no one expected that the plan would be interrupted by the surprise attack of the four alliances in the Northland. Up to now, all the ambitions and ambitions have turned into snowflakes in the wind, and they will disappear without a trace when they land...
"My lord, is the Rock Legion going to retreat back to Wodong?" A family knight beside him asked.
"Yes, it should be true based on the situation." Bai Luoputi nodded. Two days ago, another heavy-armored regiment with the emblem and flag of the Kenmes family came to the camp of the Rock Legion. At that time, he ordered the whole army to be on alert to prevent the enemy from launching a sneak attack when the weather was cold. It turned out that the enemy wanted to adjust their troops and change their guards so that the Panshi Legion could withdraw back to Wodong, and the heavy armored regiment of the Kenmes family was here to defend the camp.
"My lord, after the withdrawal of the Rock Legion, there is only one heavy armored regiment left. The strength is weak. Shall we go for a sneak attack? I think this is a good opportunity." The knight made another suggestion.
Bai Luoput was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head: "Seria, let's not bother. The weather is already cold, and it has started to snow. How many people do you think our army can dispatch? Most of them Soldiers have not been equipped with winter fur coats, and they are exposed to the cold when they go out. Moreover, we have received nearly 20,000 soldiers from the Fifth Frontier Ranger Regiment, many of whom are naturalized grass barbarians. They have not yet adapted to our third frontier ranger. The tactics and rules of the cavalry regiment. Under such circumstances, it is better to stay still. Once we go to attack the enemy and get entangled, it will be a disaster for us!"
Patting the young knight's chest, and helping to brush off the snowflakes that fell on his shoulders, Bai Luopute said to the young knight with a pleasant face: "Seria, you are a young lion, a brave The knights. But the war is not determined by how many enemies are destroyed. Our first goal is to hold on to the Pope Ridge Mountain. This is the order given to us by the Grand Duke. No matter how many victories we have won against the enemy , but if Bobby Ridge Hill falls, it means we have failed.
Before the Grand Duke left, he had already analyzed to us that as long as Mount Bobby Ridge is in our hands, we will be able to maintain a certain strategic initiative in the southern province. Moreover, the consumption of various combat readiness materials is far greater than ours. We can attack when we advance, and we can defend when we retreat, but the enemy can only defend. The scale of this war is very large, and it will last for a long time. We are now insisting on forcing the four northern alliances to sign a truce with us because of the high cost and consumption of the war. This is the only chance for our Feisabrun family to turn defeat into peace. "
The young Seria asked very unwillingly: "Is there no possibility for us to win this war?"
Bai Luopute smiled wryly and shook his head: "No one wants to lose, but we have already lost the opportunity in this war. The timing of the surprise attack launched by the four northern alliances is really good, and it is hitting us. The moment when the family was most unprepared. The destruction of the First Frontier Ranger Regiment and the fall of Windbury King City were the heaviest blows to our family. In the Southern Province, we joined hands with the four central duchies to deal with the four families in the Northland. The big showdown conducted by the armed forces of the Alliance family failed. Although a reserve army was lost, for our family, the consequences are not too serious.
You should know why, the reserve army is just a knife of our family, we can recruit grass barbarian cavalry to cast another knife if we lose this knife, but the destruction of the first frontier ranger army really made us The family is broken. It is not a pity that the Fifth Frontier Ranger Corps was disbanded. What His Royal Highness has to do now is to keep the second, third and fourth border ranger legions. These three legions are the foundation of our Feisabrun family and the hope of our family's resurgence in the future, so I can't take the third Frontier Rangers go on an adventure.
Seria, do you know why His Royal Highness wants to go back to the family territory? His Royal Highness is not going to restore the situation in Muyeyuan Province, even if it severely damaged the hunting cavalry army of the Norton family in the Northland, such a partial victory will not help the current situation of the battle. The real purpose of His Royal Highness is two, one is to see if it is possible to capture the city of Pedro, to make this war more chaotic, and to make the Caoman tribe face off against the four alliances of the Northern Lands. The second is that if the city of Pedro cannot be captured, the family will have to prepare for a few years of hard life, so His Royal Highness must first eliminate those grassland tribes with tens of thousands of barbarians on the grassland, so as to prevent these tribes from attacking the family. Create a threat. "
Bai Luopute looked at the surprised and unbelievable eyes of the young Seriya, and heaved a long sigh: "Seriya, you have the blood of the Fesabrun family in your body, and you are a rising star of the family. The Grand Duke and I both I have deep expectations for you, so I tell you these secrets. Being brave and ruthless is only a moment, and foresight is a lifetime. Failure is not terrible, but what is terrible is that we do not accept the lesson of failure and make the same mistake next time Wrong. The defeat in this war with the four northern alliances is inevitable, the Grand Duke knows it well, but what we are doing now is to minimize the consequences of this failure and make it look less terrible."
The young Seria nodded, with a grateful face: "Thank you, Uncle Galini, I understand."
Bai Luopute smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, I'm just talking casually, as long as I know what's in my mind. Let's go down the mountain. Usually when you are not on duty, you should practice more family fighting spirit. You are very talented. I I hope that you, like Her Royal Highness Princess Sylvia, will be promoted to the Gold Rank as soon as possible, and become the pride of the Feisabrun family."
"Well, I will try my best."
"By the way, Seria, I have something to trouble you. Can you go to the logistics camp and advise your uncle Volio, as the logistics director of the Third Frontier Ranger Regiment, I hope he Some things should not be overdone. For example, when the queen passed here last time, what he did made the soldiers very angry. In addition, I hope you can persuade him to perform his duties well, such as the guard defense of the rear mountain passage , he has been perfunctory. In terms of status, I am a servant of the Feisabrun family, so I don’t care about your cousin’s affairs. But I am also the commander of the third frontier regiment. I hope he won’t force me to implement it. Military law..."
Young Celia's face turned red instantly, speechless. Shame, as the queen of the Kingdom of Iberia and the logistics director of the Third Frontier Ranger Regiment, one is his cousin and the other is his cousin, but these two people have indeed become Feisa in his eyes The greatest disgrace to the Brunn family!
As the daughter of the queen and the grand duke, her cousin was so weird that she opened a prostitute camp in the military camp, and then yelled at the soldiers of the third frontier ranger regiment that they were all paupers the next day, and even one gold coin was spent on entertainment They can't even afford it, no wonder they were defeated by the Norton family's armed forces. At least the soldiers armed by the Norton family have more money. It is said that one Jinford is one Jinford, and even ten Jinfords can be made up...
I remember that Seria was so ashamed that he almost got into the ground. He never dreamed that his cousin would be so shameless, and he didn't care about the reputation and honor of the Feisabrun family. Fortunately, the commander of the army, Galini Bailuoput, handled them well, and directly ordered the soldiers to throw them into the car and send them out of the barracks.
As a result, the queen's convoy arrived at the logistics camp, but was detained by her cousin. As the logistics supervisor, Wario and the queen hit it off, and the queen took her maids to drive a prostitute in the logistics camp. At the camp, there was also a big bargain, jumping off the building to sell the price, a big silver coin can have a spring breeze with a queen's maid. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have any money. The logistics manager, Mr. Wario, can lend you money to have fun. Of course, you have to take something out as collateral. Anything is fine, even the ordnance for soldiers...
The queen and the logistics director worked hand in hand, making the logistics camp into a mess, and even affected the four corps in the front camp. The head of Bailuoput's army endured for three days and finally couldn't take it anymore. He directly sent his guards to drive the queen and her party out of the barracks, and forcibly escorted their convoy back to the family territory. As a result, according to the escort who escorted him back, the queen cursed the head of the legion all the way, scolding him for not blocking her from getting rich...
Because of this incident, Bai Luoput also offended Wario, the logistics director, who was from the lineage of the Feisabrun family, so he was the nephew of the Grand Duke of Feisabrun. And Bai Luoput's father was just an ordinary handyman in the family. Because Bai Luoput met the young Grand Duke when he was a child, he became his follower and playmate. With the support of the Grand Duke, he achieved his current achievements. . Although he became the commander of the Golden Knights and the Third Frontier Corps, those in the Feisabrun family didn't think highly of him, and privately called him the son of a handyman...
In the past, Wallio was the logistics supervisor, and he turned a blind eye to get some Bai Luopute if he was greedy. As long as the logistics supply of the legion can be received, everything will be fine for everyone. But this time, Volio went too far. Since that day, all the supplies sent to the front battalion have been short-lived. Sometimes they deliberately delayed on the pretext that the delivery capacity could not keep up. The soldiers in the front battalion complained and complained. Dao, the morale of the army was shaken.
The leader of the Bailuoput army is also very angry. Now is the most critical moment for the Feisabrun family. As a member of the Feisabrun family, he doesn't concentrate on contributing to the family but only thinks about his own small abacus. Revenge is really stupid until. It's just that it's not good for me to directly tear face off with him and deal with Wario with military law, because that would offend many members of the Feisabrun family. So it's better to use Celia's mouth to warn Wario and let him restrain himself.

"Your Highness, this is the third heavy snowfall. The snow on the ground is half a foot thick. I think it's time for us to set off."
"Yes, it's time, we should give the Third Frontier Ranger Corps a fatal blow."
"Your Highness, you can go, but I refuse you to open the way ahead, otherwise we would rather die than go..."
"Hehe, Borg, you're threatening me..."
"Your Highness, I insist, you can go, but you can't rush ahead. This is everyone's opinion, the family can be stable only with you. It can be done without us, but the family must not be without His Highness."
"Well, as you wish, I will follow behind."
On December 23, 1778, in the general calendar of Galintia, the Rock Army of the Norton family of the Northland braved the wind and snow to detour through the Eastern Barren Province to surprise the back of the Pope Ridge Mountain, and captured the unsuspecting people in one fell swoop. The logistics battalion of the Third Frontier Ranger Corps forced the surrender of the four Frontier Ranger Corps stationed in Qianshan. Galini Bailuoput, the commander of the Third Frontier Ranger Corps, committed suicide in public after surrendering. Before he died, he left a message: I am ashamed of the trust of the Grand Duke, and I will atone for my crime with death.
