Chapter 609 [Going to the Battle]

Day of the expedition!

The news that the Duke of Tulips went north had already spread throughout the world under the deliberate propaganda of the Empire.

On this day, the grand expedition ceremony also attracted countless imperial citizens to watch.

Just at the base of the former royal city guards army north of the imperial capital, the reserve reinforcements mobilized and some local garrison troops mobilized to assemble. Of course, the local garrison troops only gathered troops from the areas around the imperial capital, while the garrison troops mobilized from other places went north directly to gain speed.

This grand expedition ceremony was also to stimulate the morale of the people in the empire. On this day, in the military fortress of the Royal City Guards, teams of fully armed soldiers set out in an array of marching queues of one column and one column. Under the storm of citizens who were rushing to the north while watching the wind on both sides of the road, they rushed north.

Seeing the army of this empire set off, under the deliberate orders of the officers, every soldier tried his best to hold his head up and show his heroic spirit. His shiny armor and shaved leather boots trampled on the earth, and the faint dust was flying. Such a majestic military appearance immediately aroused the warm cheers of countless people around him.

Some female citizens threw the flowers they prepared in their hands into the queue. From a distance, this group of soldiers who went on the war seemed to be walking on the road covered with flowers...

The wave of cheering came one after another, and the crowds were filled with people. Some people even began to take the lead in shouting the slogans "Long live the thorns, long live the empire, long live the tulips."

Everyone's face was filled with excitement and excitement...

"call……"

With a sigh, Yarool was riding on the war horse. He was wearing the armor of a silver cavalry commander. The horse was immediately accompanied by a spear and a long sword. A long red feather was inserted into his helmet. The waves of cheers around seemed to not arouse Yarool's excitement. He looked at the soldiers moving forward in front of the queue, and the extremely excited people on both sides. Yarool's heart was filled with a hint of complexity.

The young faces of the soldiers were probably because they were all young men in the reserve service that had never been on the front line. The faces of these people seemed to be without fear or nervousness, as if they were full of youthful vitality and high fighting spirit. The new recruits who had been trained from the reserve battalion seemed to have no idea what a cruel battlefield would be waiting for them... Perhaps, under these simple faces, they thought war was like charge, victory, and then accept cheers and flowers like today...

Perhaps, it won't take long. In these faces, someone will kill or be killed on a battlefield filled with smoke and blood. Some people will be collapsed because of fear, holding the long sword in their hands. They cried in fear and shouted at their mother's name...

They are all young people...

Yarole tried hard to shake his head. As the first military academy graduate early, he was one of the few people who had truly experienced real battlefields. Only he knew that when the war drum sounded, no matter whether the enemy's fangs or jungle-like swords, or the hideous eyes, you must bite the bullet and rush forward!

He knows even more. In the shadow of swords, guns and arrows, when the sharp blade in your hand cuts into the enemy's body and the smelly blood sprays on your face for the first time, how confused and fearful he felt in his heart!

He also knew that when you see your colleagues die one by one and fall into a pool of blood, the pain and disgust will torture you torture you crazy.

He also knows that when you fight the enemy for life and death, the opponent's weapons pierce their armor and break into their flesh and blood. The inner torture of "Am I going to die?" will cause the whole person to fall into a despair that is almost collapsed...

"Yalor, why are you sighing?" A loud voice came from beside him. Yalor looked back and saw Gabrie in military uniform. Gabrie was obviously like those young recruits, with excitement and excitement on her face. Although she was riding on the horse, she couldn't help but hold the sword tightly with one hand.

"I'm thinking..." Yaroel suddenly lowered his voice, and his eyes swept over the young faces around him: "I'm thinking... When the war is over, how many of these fresh young lives can be left to walk back safely and return to the arms of their relatives."

After hearing this, Gabriel couldn't help but frown slightly. He looked at the captain of the cadet with a little surprise. As the only officer who had experienced the test of war, among the officers who graduated early in this period, Yarore had the highest military rank and was awarded the highest actual position. He served as the commander of a cavalry regiment and commanded a total of two thousand cavalry. His martial arts were not the highest among these people, and his wisdom was not the strongest. However, in every simulated push, he could always seize the opportunity to defeat his colleagues. Perhaps this was the difference between a rookie and a veteran.

Thinking of this, Gabrie smiled and raised her voice: "Okay, my captain, don't be so old-fashioned, you are only thirty years old."

Looking at Gabrie's young and cheerful smile, Yarole pursed his lips and showed a faint smile.

But the look is still not relaxed.

"By the way, where is the Duke? Didn't he come to participate in this expedition ceremony?" Yarol asked casually.

The day before the expedition, after a simple graduation ceremony in the Military Academy, eleven students, including him and Gabrie, were ordered to graduate early and go to the army to serve. Since then, the title of "dean" on the battlefield is not allowed to exist. On the battlefield, for a commander like Du Wei, you must call him his official title like other generals. The title of "dean" with an intimate nature will make other non-military academy officers who graduated from other schools with one another.

"Well, sir, he doesn't go with us, but has other plans. According to the agreement, we will gather in Yajin City south of the eastern defense line."

Yarole nodded, and he expressed satisfaction with Gabriel's name Du Wei as "adult". Once he went to the battlefield, there would be no private title like "brother and younger brother" in the army!

It seems that this young Count of Landrolin is a very clear person.

According to the plan to send troops previously formulated by Du Wei, the reinforcements this time included a total of 20,000 troops in a reserve division, and about 30,000 troops were drawn from the local garrison troops, which could be integrated into a division, and a private army quota of 10,000 people that Du Wei forced to come from the military headquarters in various terms.

However, the route to the north is divided into four routes, with about 14,000 people. It includes part of the reserve division and the garrison troops drawn near the imperial capital. Last night, it carried warships directly from the dock of the imperial capital, from the Lancang Canal to the east, and after going to sea, it went directly to the northern front line by sea. In this way, at the fastest speed, the reinforcements arrived at the eastern front as early as possible. The second route is the group of troops who are currently in conducting the "expedition ceremony". They are two teams of the reserve division, plus some garrison troops, with 16,000 people heading north from land, because most of these troops are cavalry, so the speed will not be too slow.

The third route is a garrison garrison in the north, and they do not come to the imperial capital to assemble and go directly to the north.

The fourth route... Du Wei himself led 10,000 private troops, but the march plan of the way was not revealed to anyone.

West of the city, behind Yuema Town, at the foot of Brokeback Mountain, Tulip Villa.

"At this time, the boring expedition ceremony should end." Du Wei sighed.

Then he looked around and saw that in the Tulip Villa, there were hundreds of magician members he recruited, and the five hundred personal guards he had been carrying with him.

"Then, let's go, too." He smiled, then looked at the members of magicians behind him, all of whom were recruited by him recently. Although most of the magicians are unruly by nature, fortunately Du Wei himself has the status of a magician, and is also a famous magic genius on the mainland. He is also a disciple of the magician Gandov. In this regard, it basically excludes the magician's rejection of him. The reason why magicians are unwilling to be dispatched by the imperial military. Even if they participate in the war, they do things based on their preferences because the arrogant magician cannot tolerate being sent to him by ordinary military generals.

But Du Wei, that's different.

What's more, now I have sworn allegiance to Du Wei, and have also taken so many top-quality equipment.

"Everyone." Du Wei turned around and looked at the hundreds of "members" in front of him wearing magician robes. All of these magician robes were made. Each of them was also awarded a badge from the Tulip Family to show that they were the private magician escorts who served in the Tulip Duke himself.

"My wizards, welcome everyone here. I know that I will gather you here instead of setting out with the main force. Many people will find it strange... Well, but I promise that what you see today will make everyone worth the trip! Haha, you are all magicians, of course you can't ride north like ordinary troops, so I'm here, ready to use the special transportation tools!"

After pausing, he deliberately smiled: "And, this thing is not the time to be announced, so it is not suitable to go on the expedition with the large army. Now, our expedition ceremony has begun... Dear Magicians, please prepare your luggage and then we are ready to board the ship!"

Boarding the ship?

Some magicians couldn't help but look weird. This is land. What kind of warship is boarding?

But then, Du Wei walked to the huge grassland in front of the villa.

Next, a magician in a white robe walked out slowly.

The white robe...that is a symbol of the identity of the great magician!

But what puzzled these magicians was that the big magician in white robe in front of him looked very old, with a small figure, white breathing, thin face, and even a faint smell of obsceneness.

More importantly... On the continent, any white-robed magician is an extremely rare strong man, and each of them has a name that is well-known. Many of these magicians were in the magic union before. It can be said that they should be very familiar with every white-robed magician recorded in the book. However, the white-robed magician in front of them was very handsome and no one recognized it.

Well... it's not a fake...

"Hello, colleagues." This vulgar old man in a white robe first bowed to everyone with a standard magician etiquette. Regardless of whether it is true or false, the other magicians quickly bowed their heads and returned the favor. After all, there were no white-robed mages in the escorts of these magicians.

"Now, what you are going to see is the new magical war weapon of the Tulip family. Because its appearance has never been exposed publicly before, so please don't be too surprised. Haha, of course, it is no longer a secret now, because after we go to the battlefield, its appearance will spread throughout the continent."

After saying that, he coughed: "Finally, let me introduce myself. My name is...Gargwizard, a level 8 magician in the mainland."

This vulgar old man in white robe is the mouse prime minister Gege Witch!

After years of unremitting efforts and the help of Green Pao Gandov, his transformation technique finally made a breakthrough. After he transformed himself back into a human body, he took the Youthless Spring and solidified his body, and finally he no longer had to be trapped in a mouse-shaped body.

Gege Witch?
