Chapter 293: Guards Flag
Leiyun City lit the general platform, and the torch illuminated the vast darkness of the night, once overwhelming the bright moon and stars above our heads.
Armored soldiers gathered on the battlefield, and soldiers stood shoulder to shoulder, ready to go.
The 312 hounds were like real soldiers at this time, lying on the ground and waiting. The dog trainer put cat hair in front of their noses. These professionally trained beasts did not bark at all, but just sniffed their noses and remembered it.
The smell, ears pricked up, waiting for the master to give orders.
The elite guardsmen wearing black armor gathered here. Each one of them is a warrior carefully selected by Bolton. The 5th sequence "Zhao Mang" number 20, the 4th sequence "Conqueror" number 93, the 3rd sequence
"Iron Blood" No. 568, the sparkling fire reflected in the black armor is like the surface of a lake, burning ink-colored flowers blooming under the night.
At this time, both Kino and Bolton were standing on the general stand. Bolton was in the chief position, looking up at the elite people in the audience. His voice was full of uncontrollable fury: "You must all know that there was a dog a few days ago.
The mother-in-law shot me so hard that I can’t even move my arms now!”
"Our army is so powerful. We discussed the expedition in the royal city at the beginning of the year. The four main army armies in the kingdom were not familiar with the desert. They didn't dare to ask for help. We immediately stood up and fought from the pass to the oasis, and from the oasis to the desert.
, and then from the desert to the hinterland of the desert, the horse bandits were killed by us in their own home ground. They were so frightened that they fell on their backs! The Holy Lord of the Desert even abandoned his armor and helmet and fled in a panic!"
"Being in such a heroic legion, what words do you think are better to use to describe us? Brilliance? Glory? The dignity of the kingdom?"
Bolton's beard and hair were spread out, like a furious lion, and he roared the second half of the sentence: "Bullshit! Such a large legion, surrounded by 8247 personal guards, the general was almost killed in the formation! And yet!
Have some bullshit dignity!”
The elite guards lowered their eyes and said nothing. It could be clearly seen that their fists were tightly clenched. The tight armor could hardly bear the bulge of muscles, and they kept making squeezing and twisting sounds.
Bolton looked around the elites, without any emotion in his voice: "We once boasted that we were the most elite regiment in the kingdom, but after that shot, this name no longer exists. Someone, take out the military flag!"
A pale-faced guard walked out from behind, holding a tray with a black flag in his hand. For some reason, he staggered and staggered. Not only was his face bloodless, but his lips were also white. He was holding the tray tightly.
His hands were shaking, and his eyes were trembling with tears.
The soldiers stared at the platform and quickly recognized that the tray contained the battle flag of the Guards Corps.
The history of the Guards can be traced back to 513 years ago.
Since the fall of the Sun King, the leader of the gods, in the first year of the "God's Fall Calendar", the world has fallen apart and wars have broken out. Dynasties and political powers have been changing like fireworks. All living beings have suffered from disintegration and fallen into a dark age for thousands of years.
Until the year 2176 of the "God's Fall Calendar", the era ushered in its heroes. The eight princes did not want the people to suffer from the disintegration anymore. They raised the king's flag and rebelled. They worked together to overthrow the decadent old dynasty, and then they fought separately.
, competing in the world, hoping to establish a new political power, this is the most colorful chapter in history, and it is also a vast epic that troubadours sing endlessly - the conflict between the eight kings.
Twelve years later, at the end of the Eight Kings' Conflict, the situation in the world has become clear. The "Ancient King" Doguland I and the "Dragon Queen" Sofina Finn Regnom are occupying the north and the south respectively. The other six kings have to fully join forces to fight against each other.
Become a powerful force.
In the same year, the Allied Forces of the Six Kings took the lead in attacking the Ancient King. The two sides fought fiercely for half a year. In the end, the main force of the Ancient King was forced to the edge of the Dead River and fought a last-ditch battle. This led to the tragic "Battle of the Dead River" in history.
That is to say, in this battle, the soldiers of the ancient king were not afraid of death for the ideal of founding the country. The whole army was proud to die first and fought to the last soldier.
The leader of the soldiers was also the eldest son of the ancient king. When all the soldiers were sacrificed, he carried the Laurel King flag alone and bravely charged the enemy, killing more than a hundred people and finally died in the chaos.
When the eldest son of the ancient king died in battle, his eyes were not closed, his iron body was not falling, and the laurel flag was still fluttering in the wind. Seeing this, the rest of the legions fought with blood and refused to retreat. Finally, a dragon roar came from the horizon, "Dragon Queen"
"Sofina came from the north to the south to help Paoze.
Over time, the queen's mount "Nidhogg" breathed out black dragon breath, evaporating the vast dead river and helping the ancient king escape. Only then did the ancient king and the dragon queen form a blood alliance to jointly defeat the six kings, and finally
The laurel flower and the giant dragon formed an eternal alliance, the ancient king founded the country, and started the "Fire Calendar".
In order to commend the soldiers who risked their lives for their ideals in the "Battle of the Dead River", the ancient king personally designed a battle flag after the founding of the country, and established what became the "Regiment of Guards".
In order to commemorate his eldest son, the successive generals of the Guards only gave the King his own son.
The battle flag of the Guards Corps is based on the style designed by the ancient king and has been passed down from generation to generation.
Although due to the aging of materials, the general flag will be remade every time a king takes office, one thing will not change - the guard flag is the glory of every guard soldier, symbolizing their pride and dignity that has continued since ancient times.
.
However, at this time, the personal guard flag brought up by Bolton was different from the past. It can be seen from the details that it was the only main military flag, but its surface was dark, indicating that it had been immersed in something.
.
The experienced guards quickly figured out that the black substance was... fuel.
When Bolton raised the torch, these personal guards who had no fear in the face of millions of troops suddenly panicked and fell to their knees in despair: "No!!!"
"Hoo--" The fire ignited and burned up.
The military flag is an unshakable symbol of dignity for the entire legion. As long as it is still flying on the battlefield, those soldiers who are lost in the fighting will be guided. They will know that their comrades are beside them and the general is behind them, and they will have the courage to face the strong.
The enemy will move forward inexorably.
There is no eternal victory in this world, and there is no undefeated army.
In the 513 years since the founding of Doguland, there have been countless wars and defeats, and the Guards Corps has been pushed to the ground and beaten violently, retreating like a lost dog.
But every time the Guards Corps was surrounded and annihilated by the enemy, the last thing that generals in the past generations had to do before their sacrifices was to organize their most elite guards, protect the blood-stained military flag, break through the encirclement, and bring it back to the royal city.
The general fell? It doesn't matter!
The whole army was wiped out? It doesn't matter!
As long as the military flag is there, the military spirit is there. Countless newcomers will hear the stories of the bloody battles of their predecessors and join the Guards Corps with sincerity, forming batch after batch of iron armies that will not be defeated.
But now, no more...
With Bolton's torch lighting up, the flag, which symbolized the pride of the Guards Corps, was ignited. The high temperature brought by the fuel fire burned it out in a very short time, turning it into ashes and disappearing in the wind...
