: The Decisive Battle Begins

The army had already been dispatched, and the camp beside the swamp had gradually taken shape, and Tang En didn’t plan to join any of them, so of course there was no need to visit the Red Lion Camp.

There are not many Red Lion soldiers in the mountains, most of them are militiamen who respond to the call, and what to do is very simple, just wait for the signal and light the fire.

Bonfires were lit in all directions. Tang En scanned around and saw an acquaintance who also looked over. His eyes met and he got up instantly.

“Huh, it’s you?” The one-armed veteran walked over quickly, and in the middle of the walk, he seemed to remember something. He brought a roasted chicken leg from the campfire and stuffed it into Tang En’s hand.

“You also joined the army? Hahaha, let me just say, it’s a pity that a warrior like you doesn’t participate in this war!”

“I’m just helping out. You should be out of the scope of recruitment.” Tang En just took a bite of the chicken leg, and suddenly remembered the call-up order. Lataen is not hungry, disabled people and teenagers are not allowed to join.

“I entrusted the help of a few old men in the army. Don’t look at me like that. I just feel that if I don’t participate in this kind of epic battle, where will I put my old face of the red lion sword master?” The old soldier patted his back The big sword has some gaps on the blade, but there is no rust. It looks like it has been well maintained.

Before Tang En could speak, several villagers who came together laughed jokingly.

“The village chief started bragging again, what kind of sword master, even the combat troops couldn’t get in.”

“Yes, yes, it caused us to come here to feed the mosquitoes. What’s the use of these firewood? I want to exchange the enemy’s head for meritorious deeds!”

The veteran couldn’t help but blushed, grabbed a wooden stick, turned around and beat him: “You idiots, every post in the war is extremely important, and you three-legged cats are going to the front to seek death?”

He knocked the villagers apart, and the militiamen from the other villages also let out bursts of laughter.

“Cheka Village can’t do it anymore. Should we return those acres of land to us?”

“Bullshit, if you have the guts to grab it, wait for me to train a young man who can participate in the festival, and marry the most beautiful girl in your village!”

“Hahaha, old Ika, wait until your next life.”

Tang En continued to gnaw on the chicken legs, ignoring the words of Zaun. The people of Gelid are really harmonious and simple.

In this war, they were not even cannon fodder, but in Tang En’s eyes, they were so vivid and real.

Not long after, the veteran came back out of breath, and threw down the general who had been beaten until only half of the stick remained.

“Now these idiots are so outrageous, they have forgotten that I am the strongest in the three villages.”

Tang En glanced at the big sword and the worn-out chain mail, and nodded slightly: “I can see it.”

“Listen, all of you, this Your Excellency has also affirmed my combat power!” The veteran looked around triumphantly, and was relieved when he saw those people were speechless. Judge by the attitude of the Lion Rider.

If he dared to call you His Excellency, he was at least a knight, and even though Tang En had beheaded so many strong men, a knight was already a heavenly existence in the eyes of ordinary people.

“That’s all right, all right, if you go too far, you’ll hurt your friendship.” Tang En stopped the proud veteran, and asked calmly, “Has anyone gone to Cheka Village to look for me before?”

“Well, two people said they were looking for a warrior pot, and I immediately thought of Alexander.” The veteran gritted his teeth, and was taken aback suddenly, “Is there something wrong with these people?”

“No problem, they are all my old friends.” Tang En smiled kindly, he finally knew how the hunter caught up.

But what can we do if we know, kill Alexander? He can’t do this kind of thing.

“That’s good, that’s good.” The veteran nodded repeatedly. He didn’t know what was going on, so he just smiled and lit a bonfire for Tang En, dragged a few bottles of ale from a distance, and then got up to leave.

“Drink slowly, I’ll go and take care of those bastards.”

“Go.” Dunn sat on the ground. He was on the edge of the camp, which also meant that he was on guard at night.

He dangled around with a rough wine bottle and listened to the ugly singing of men howling.

Not as high-spirited and tactful as the Banshee, but it is enough to drink, but the lyrics are too vulgar, someIt’s pretty nasty.

What took off the long skirt, the mountains and mountains changed, sweating profusely, and the loneliness went away.

Hearing that Tang En broke out in a cold sweat, he quickly put the doll back into the spirit ring, so as not to be reprimanded by Annie afterwards.

The doll had just turned into particles and disappeared, he was taken aback for a moment, and turned his head abruptly.

A huge shadow came silently from the forest, making people instinctively clenched the knife, and after seeing who it was, he smiled wryly again.

“General, your gravity magic is very powerful to scare people.”

It was Lataen who came. Such a big hunk appeared silently behind him. It was really scary. He raised his carrot-thick finger and made a silent gesture, obviously not wanting to disturb the carnival militiamen.

Tang En had good eyesight, and moved to the side, leaving a seat for General Broken Star to sit down, offering a bottle of ale with both hands.

“General, why do you have time to come here for inspection?”

“The terrain here is good, it’s very suitable as a command post.” Rataen said nonsense, seeing that Tang En was skeptical, he simply laughed: “Well, the military camp has already started preparing for battle, so I’m too embarrassed to take the lead in drinking there, so I just ran away. Get outside and get some air!”

It turns out that General Broken Star can fish too.

Tang En smiled lightly, looking at the pocket-sized wine bottle in Rata’n’s hand: “How about I get you a few more bottles?”

“No need, it’s good to have a taste of wine, but getting drunk will affect the business. Besides—” He pointed to the crowd not far away, “Drink it after victory, the taste will be even better.”

“Well said.” Tang En took a few sips, the alcohol made his blood surge, and wiped the corner of his mouth, “But thank you for the previous incident.”

———————xxx———————

“What happened before? Oh, you said those death hunters, we have fought side by side, it’s just a trivial matter.”

He said it freely, but Tang En knew that this was not a trivial matter. Rataen should know who was behind the death hunter.

This favor has to be paid back.

“You don’t have to think about it so much. You were working for Gayled. I’m not used to betraying my comrades.”

Rataen patted Tang En’s shoulder silently and heavily, almost knocking the latter into the soil. The swordsman grinned and hurriedly dodged half a meter to the side.

Comrades? In a sense it is.

Listening to the ugly singing, his secondary goal coincides with Lataen. It doesn’t matter who wins this decisive battle, but the scarlet corruption must not spread.

“I wish you a successful start.” Tang En raised the bottle again and drank it dry, “But please be careful, it would be a pity for a hero like you to become an insane monster.”

Of course the scarlet and corrupt terror Latarn knew, but he didn’t care. He poured the ale into his mouth and burst the bottle.

“Be careful, too. It’s best to leave while in the chaos. Those hunters don’t look like they want to let you go.”

Tang En spread his hands, not only would he not let him go, he had already called for reinforcements to block him in, and when the decisive battle started, he might take advantage of the chaos to finish him off.

“Don’t worry, I have no intention of leaving.”

Ratan’s eyes flickered, and he neither tried to persuade him nor offered to help, nor did he even ask him what he was staying for.

Everyone has experienced many battles, and of course they will be responsible for their own lives.

Just as he was about to speak, a ‘flaming meteor’ rose from the west, which was very dazzling in the silent night. Comparing the distance, it was about ten miles away.

The scouts scattered by both sides have already begun to contact, which also means that the main formation of the Holy Tree Army is not far from here.

The singing in the forest stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at the night sky one after another, with expectations and fears. When war comes, it can be said that there are various states in the world.

The ‘Meteor’ quickly dimmed in Lataen’s eyes. He smiled and stuck out his fist: “Haha, Marenia is finally coming, let us fight for our respective destiny!”

The high-spirited tone was intertwined with the chill of the war. Perhaps it was alcohol residue. Tang En only felt his blood boil. He stretched out his fist, bumped into it, and spit out a few words:

“Take care, general, and I owe you a favor.”

“It’s the same with you.” Lataen waved his hand nonchalantly, “Forget about the favor, don’t take it to heart.”

He turned around decisively, he wanted to return to the command position, but he didn’t have time to talk nonsense, he just walked a few steps, then turned around again.

“If there is a Red Lion Festival in the future, be sure to come. I’ll be waiting for you.”

After saying that, without waiting for an answer, he flew out like a meteor.

Tang En looked at his back, and then at the fragments of wine bottles on the ground. The moonlight shining through the gaps in the leaves cast a hazy light on them.

These words should make him grit his teeth and live on, but Tang En felt that he was talking about Rataen himself.

If a ceremony is to gather a group of strong men to bury a doomed hero, although it is sad and chilling, it doesn’t matter.

So can it be changed?

Tang En raised his head and glanced at the night sky that had returned to darkness. The method he called was just a wild idea, which could not be tested or verified. Coupled with the sudden appearance of powerful enemies, the success rate was almost equal to zero.

But that heart was beating powerfully, and the blood was so hot that it couldn’t cool down, and there was no hesitation at all, and he didn’t even have the idea of ​​​​applying to Ni Ni for tactical guidance.

He just stood like a sculpture until the sky began to dim, and the sound of horseshoes approached from far to near. The blood-stained red lion scouts were withdrawing, and behind them were hundreds of cavalry.

Thousands of horseshoes beat the ground like drums, and the homeless knight and the holy tree knight fought fiercely, winning the scout battle by virtue of overwhelming numbers, until the red lion guards rushed forward,Then he laughed and turned his horse’s head away.

Standing high and looking far, Tang En could already see a ‘tsunami’ appearing on the horizon, just like this, slowly coming across the border. Not far from him, another stream of iron was coming from the newly built camp. Even though there are still dozens of miles apart, the fighting spirit of the two sides has frozen the air.

Listening to the rapid breathing in his ears, Tang En, who looked at the two Steel Divisions, smiled instead.

At this moment, there is no need to be hesitant, and there is no need for someone to guide you. After thinking about it, it is still the old saying:

If you don’t try, how will you know.
