Chapter 93: Back to the Imperial Capital

It was almost dusk at this time. On the main battlefield in Solad Town, on the only street in the town. Almost all the main forces of the Pangxin Empire Army gathered here and struggled to resist the enemy's attack like a tide.

The defense line has been broken, and countless soldiers from Zhuang Khan Kingdom rushed over, and the blocking war has evolved into a melee. Commander Higgins took the lead, slashing his sword and shouted loudly: "The time has come for the warriors of the empire to sacrifice their lives to serve the motherland and the goddess! As long as it gets dark, the winner is us! The empire will not forget us. Even if all of them die here today, our heroic souls will be remembered by the people forever! In order to be worthy of their relatives and the land that gave birth to us and raised us! Warriors, let's be heroic with me!"

"Fight!" Countless soldiers of the Pang Xin Empire roared and rushed towards the enemy soldiers. They defended the dignity of this land with their lives and blood!

The battle can no longer be described as tragic. This is truly heroic! In the melee, the captain of the 18th squadron died heroically! The captain of the 20th squadron died heroically! General Lipusgow's left arm had been cut off by the enemy, and he was hit by a feather arrow on his back, but he still had red eyes and rushed into the enemy group with roars.

However, there were still more and more enemy soldiers. After killing a group of them, more and more rushed up again. In the distant town entrance, a large number of enemy main forces continued to flow in! The battle in Solad Town reached the last moment!

At this moment, every soldier in the town who was fighting suddenly felt the earth begin to tremble slightly. Then, a faint roar came from the far behind the town: "Salmondo!"

Hearing this extremely familiar cavalry charge, all the soldiers of the Empire were excited. This was the unique roar of the cavalry of the Empire's Guards, and it was the decisive charge that General Buck's troops would roar! Reinforcements are coming! Cavalry are coming! General Buck did not forget them. At this critical moment, Salmondo's roar appeared in time!

Commander Higgins jumped onto several obstacle bunkers made of huge rocks and looked at the back of the town. He saw dust flying on the plains and rumbling hooves. A huge imperial cavalry was coming at the fastest speed.

The familiar flag and the familiar roar could not help but make the strong Commander Higgins burst into tears. He turned around and raised his sword and suddenly yelled: "Salmondo!"

Although most of the remaining defenders in the Ponsin Empire were not cavalry, what does it matter? At this moment, General Buck's name is the slogan of victory, the slogan of charge! It is the slogan of death! More than 10,000 living Fourth Army soldiers immediately shouted in unison: "Salmondo!"

The earth shook even more violently! In the blink of an eye, the cavalry had already rushed to the entrance of the town. Another deafening roar was heard: "Salmondo!"

The soldiers of the Fourth Army knew that the cavalry was about to start rushing, and immediately retreated to both sides like a tide. The soldiers of the Zhuang Khan Kingdom forgot to chase and killed them. They also saw this cavalry that seemed to fall from the sky. The sound of anger and thunderous sound made them stunned!

I don’t know who shouted first: “The enemy cavalry is here! Run!” The crowd of people who received the receivers was in chaos, and countless people turned around and began to run wildly.

The only fate of fighting against the impact of the cavalry on the street was to be trampled to death by horse hooves. The tens of thousands of soldiers turned around and immediately squeezed with the troops that had just rushed into the town. The small street intersection was suddenly in chaos and crowded!

The cavalry entered the town! The charge has become a battle call: "Kill!" The dozens of cavalry who led the lead plunged into the enemy crowd head-on, and immediately collided, wailed, and broken bones. The cavalry did not stop and urged the horses to rush straight into the deepest part of the crowd. Then dozens, hundreds, and even thousands of cavalry rushed to the front. For a moment, the enemy only hated that their parents gave birth to two less legs for themselves, and they retreated from the entrance of the town.

At this time, Duke Wen Khan, the commander of the Zhuang Khan Kingdom, had already taken his follow-up troops to pass the filled trenches. He originally thought that he was sure to win today and would be able to wipe out the defending enemy. While he was excited, he suddenly saw a chaos in the troops in front. The soldiers who had just entered the town actually ran out desperately, and rushed out the troops that were still outside the town.

He couldn't help but say angrily: "What's going on? Why is the troops so panicked?"

"Report... Report to Master! It's not good!" A brigade commander-level officer rushed over and shouted in a panic expression: "My sir, the enemy suddenly came a reinforcement army, all of which were cavalry units. Our army is all infantry and cannot resist!"

"What?" Duke Wen Khan was shocked and asked sternly: "How many people have come to the enemy cavalry?"

"No...I don't know, many, many, I can't count it clearly. I see, it's at least five thousand riders!"

"Five thousand cavalry?" Duke Wen Khan couldn't help but take a breath. It was originally a mere five thousand cavalry. However, since his main cavalry was surrounded and annihilated by the Pangxin Empire defenders, the enemy had an absolute advantage in terms of the number of cavalry!

In plain combat, no matter how many infantry soldiers are, they will only escape and avoid them when they encounter cavalry attacks. Such a messy scene cannot be used to attack the arrow formation. Is it possible to successfully capture Solad Town today, but at the last moment, they lose their power?

The retreat of the soldiers in the attacking town quickly caused panic and uneasiness among tens of thousands of soldiers still outside the town. Then, the figures of the cavalry of the Pangxin Empire had appeared at the entrance of the town. Ten cavalry, fifty cavalry, hundreds of cavalry, and thousands of cavalry. Accompanied by the shouts of killing, they rushed into the infantry formation of the Zhuang Khan Kingdom desperately.

In order to survive, the panicked soldiers didn't care about maintaining their formation and obeying orders. They shouted and turned around and ran away. After this run, all the soldiers could no longer stand, and instantly turned into a great defeat for the entire army!

In the town, Commander Haksa, who led the cavalry to rush for a long time, rushed through the Pangzu Mountains in time to reinforce, had already met Commander Higgins! Without much talk, Haksa first saluted and said, "Captain Higgins, thank you for your hard work! The general ordered me to lead the cavalry to reinforce!"

Commander Higgins saluted and said, "It's just right! Thank you for arriving in time. Solard Town is still in the hands of our army so far!"

Haxsa nodded and said, "The battle continues. I will lead the cavalry to pursue it while it is victorious. You will lead the subordinates to reorganize the defense line, and we will see you later!"

"Okay! See you later!"

On the stone tower at the intersection of the small street, Judy also saw the Imperial cavalry entering the town. She shook Koya with excitement and shouted happily: "See? See? Are you? It's our cavalry! It's our reinforcements! Now! We're saved! We won't die!"

Ke Ya had no choice but to grin and said, "Wow! Oh, I saw it! Don't shake it, my wound is so painful!"

Outside the town, Duke Wen Khan neighed and ordered the soldiers not to retreat. However, the great defeat was already unstoppable! Under the fierce attack of the cavalry of the Pangxin Empire, more than 100,000 infantrymen of the Zhuang Khan Kingdom threw away their armor and fled in panic. In desperation, Duke Wen Khan had to turn his horse and retreat with the crowd.

After running, he ran almost fifty miles. Along the way, countless soldiers of the Zhuang Khan Kingdom were killed. Finally, they retreated to a small town. There were less than 50,000 soldiers who were still around Duke Wen Khan.

At this time, it was already dark. The Haksa cavalry stopped when they saw the good news and retreated at night. In this battle, the army of Zhuang Khan Kingdom was greatly damaged and scared. It is unlikely to reorganize the army and then counterattack again in a short period of time.

Solad Town finally calmed down. After being carried back to the room by Judy, Koya found that Koya's wound had broken and blood was constantly oozing out. Judy was so panicked that she hurriedly put medicine and bandaged him again. After a long time, she finally stopped bleeding.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and Britney, covered in blood, strode in and said with a smile: "Master, in today's battle, our army will win a great victory. The enemy was defeated and fled by our cavalry. In a short period of time, we will definitely not be able to attack our defense line again!"

When Ke Ya saw the blood on her body, she was shocked and shouted: "Are you injured? Why don't you bandage it and come over? I'm afraid of life?"

Britney smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just a little injury. Most of my blood was splashed on me by enemies. It looks scary, but it's not a big deal!"

Judy quickly picked up the bandage powder and came over and said, "A little injury needs to be cured. Let me see where are you injured?"

Britney didn't refuse either. She sat on the bed, reached out and took off the bloody clothes on her body, and said, "It's probably because she's on her shoulders and back. She's fighting too much, and I don't know much about it myself. Please help me find it."

In a blink of an eye, Britney's upper body was covered with slimness. Sure enough, she saw two shallow knife wounds on her left shoulder and on her back. There were also many blood stasis and abrasions on her right arm and lower abdomen. After seeing this, Ke Ya couldn't help but hold her hand with heartache and said, "Britney, thank you for your hard work! I want you to lead the swordsman team to fight for me. I'm so sorry for being hurt!"

Britney also held Keya's hand with her backhand and smiled, "Look at you, why are we going to share with you and me? Didn't you say that we are one mind? Besides, although I am your slave, I am also a soldier of the empire. Isn't it very appropriate to fight for the empire?"

Ke Ya smiled and said, "Thank you! After I go back, I will ask the Great Saint to relieve your slavery and restore your identity as a free man. From now on, you don't have to call me master!"

At this time, Judy had already started bandaging Britney. While raising his hand to facilitate Judy's treatment, Britney said, "Actually the same, I am now like a free man. Besides, even if I restore my identity, you will always be my master. This cannot be changed!"

Ke Ya said: "Who says there is no way to change it? As long as you become a free man, you can be justified..." Before he finished speaking, Britney suddenly saw the bandage on Ke Ya's leg, which seemed to have new blood seepings, and said in surprise: "Huh? Are you bleeding from your wound again? Judy, what's going on?"

Judy raised her mouth and complained: "I'm still saying that Ke Ya is not honest at all lying here. He heard the sound of fighting outside, and he had to go out to join the war. I didn't agree, and he was anxious with me. So, there was no way to carry him out. After this movement, the wound broke and I had to treat him again."

"Is that?" Britney suddenly became anxious and turned around and shouted to Koya, "Oh, master! Why are you so unconscious? Why are you fighting after being so seriously injured? Your life is more precious than us. If you shed too much blood, the Holy Church will not spare us. Moreover, if you don't think about yourself, you have to consider Anne and Judy."

Ke Ya had no choice but to surrender and smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay! I was wrong, I will never dare to do it again next time, so be fine?"

Britney didn't say much when dealing with the master. She reached out and lifted the clothes covering Keya's lower body, and looked at it and said, "How is it now? Is the blood stopping? Such an important place, I can't be careless!"

Ke Ya hurriedly shouted, "It's okay, hurry up and go back, I...I..."

Britney was stunned and immediately subconsciously put down her hand, and did not speak, but just raised her head and looked at Ke Ya with a smile. Ke Ya had to flush and turn her head to look at Britney's naked upper body.

At this time, while wrapping a bandage for Britney, Judy bent down and whispered something in her ear. Britney couldn't help laughing after hearing this and said, "Really? Haha, this is a good phenomenon!"

After the great defeat of Zhuang Khan Kingdom, he did not dare to attack Solad Town again. The next day, the defense line of the Pangxin Empire was calm. When it was dark, according to General Buck's order, the troops began to retreat in an orderly manner. The cavalry broke the rear, and about 17,000 soldiers with combat capabilities, led more than 6,000 seriously injured soldiers, and took advantage of the moonlight to embark on the road to return to the imperial capital. The battle of Solad Town came to an end.

During these four days of battle, plus the last 5,000 cavalry, the Pangxin Empire invested a total of 85,000 troops. When we withdraw from the battle, there were less than 30,000 seriously injured people. In other words, the more than 55,000 soldiers of the Pangxin Empire died in this battle!

The army of Zhuang Khan Kingdom was even worse. Afterwards, they collected the lost soldiers again and counted the number and losses. They found that a huge dispatched army of 200,000, not counted as wounded, but less than 80,000 people could still fight at this moment. The loss was so huge that they almost lost the strategic threat to the Pang Xin Empire. Moreover, in the last battle, the cavalry of the Pang Xin Empire killed the courage of the Zhuang Khan Kingdom army. Knowing that they had begun to retreat, the Zhuang Khan Kingdom army did not dare to pursue it.

On March 25, 208, the troops that the Ponsin Empire withdrew from the Solad Town defense line returned to the imperial capital safely. At this time, all millions of refugees had retreated into the imperial capital two days ago. General Buck also led his troops to fight a battle with the pursuers of the Kingdom of Tandax and fought a battle twenty miles away from the imperial capital, annihilated more than 20,000 enemies, and forced the enemy's main force to retreat thirty miles.

After that, Buck's main force retreated to the imperial capital. That day, on the barracks' training ground, General Buck saw the soldiers of the Fourth Army who were ragged and exhausted, and were still arranged neatly and had the power of the army. Even though he was a tough guy, he was in tears and could not say a word.

But soldiers have their own way of expressing themselves, and he saluted the living and dead warriors! Thank them for their sacrifices for their motherland!

The wind was very strong that day, and countless flags in the barracks were blew by the strong wind. But no one spoke in the whole barracks. The living soldiers were not sad, only firm! When General Buck saluted them, they returned the salute. They looked at General Buck silently, expressing their determination to die for the country with the highest etiquette of the soldiers!

That day, Keya returned to the Holy Church and received magical treatment from Master Fanniya. The great saint came to visit Keya in person. Although she accidentally felt caring for Keya, she still ordered him to go back and report to General Buck immediately after healing his injuries. Assist General Buck and defend the imperial capital!

At this moment, except for the Roverdo Empire's army, the troops of the other two countries had already arrived, and the troops of the Imperial Capital had already arrived. However, they fought all the way and suffered heavy losses, so they did not dare to launch a siege. They had to set up camp far away, resting and waiting for the Roverdo army to arrive.

After Ke Ya recovered from his injury, he didn't bother to go home to check in, but asked Britney to report safety to his mother and sister. He ran directly to General Buck's front-line command and reported to General Buck. However, General Buck happened to go to the palace to attend the emergency combat meeting held by His Majesty, and had not come back yet. He was stopped by the soldiers guarding the command department, so he had to wait outside the command center and walk around anxiously.

At this time, only the sound of horse hooves was heard, and a fast horse ran from a distance. When Koya heard this, he thought General Buck had returned, so he hurriedly went up to see it. But he saw that the person on the horse was not Buck, but General Buck's daughter Diana.

Diana also saw Keya, and after riding her horse to him, she pulled the rope and stopped immediately and said, "Koya, what are you doing here?"

Ke Ya had no choice but to smile bitterly: "The Great Saint, I will report to your father and help your father defend the imperial capital!"

Diana jumped off the horse and said, "Then why are you staying here? Go in and see my dad!"

"Your father is not here, and the guards said they will go to see His Majesty. I can't enter the command post at will, so I have to wait here."

When Diana heard this, she said, "Then come with me. I know my dad's guards, and they dare not stop me. Let's go inside and wait, and I have something to look for him!"

Sure enough, the soldiers guarding the door did not dare to stop Diana when they saw Diana. After Diana took Koya into it, she came directly to the command center. At this moment, everyone in the command center was busy, and no one had time to care about them. Those who knew Diana took the time to say hello to her and continued to work hard.

Diana didn't care, so she found a stool to sit down, and asked Koya: "I heard you went to participate in the Battle of Soladtown? How about it? What do you think after coming back from the battlefield?"

Ke Ya was stunned and said, "Only after returning from the battlefield, I deeply feel the preciousness and beauty of peace! Only then do I know that we must love life and life! Only then do I understand the greatness and loftyness of soldiers! Only then do I realize that even if I die, I have to die with dignity and significance! This is what I feel after returning from the battlefield."

"Is that?" Diana sighed lightly and said, "Actually, I want to go to the battle like you. But my mother refused to let me say that my father had already gone to the war. If even my only daughter went there, how could she live! Alas! There was no way, so I had to stay at home obediently."

Ke Ya smiled and was about to speak, but she heard a long laugh from outside. Someone said, "Don't listen to your damn, my daughter Buck's daughter must have such ambition. Is it because the country is in trouble and still hiding at home to embroider? "

Diana immediately jumped up and ran to the door and shouted, "Dad! You have been back a long time ago, why haven't you gone home to check it out?"

At this time, General Buck's figure appeared at the door. He hugged his daughter and smiled, "Where do I have that time? Since I came back, I have been so busy that I haven't even drank it! Huh? Keya, are you here? It's so good, I'm just looking for you."
