Act 21: The Troops Divide into Three Ways

Scene 21 The troops are divided into three groups

Brando's thoughts were racing. He thought it would be great if he had some investigative abilities. Such as eagle eye, momentary omen, vision of the dead, detection and other skills. But when he thought of investigation, he suddenly thought of a possibility. By the way, that's it.

that--

He couldn't help but shake hands and then let go to relax himself.

"Because the Dagger River Beach is almost undefended for us now. There is only at most one detachment of undead stationed there. Why don't I break out in that direction?"

Everyone’s first reaction was almost the same:

"What, is that true?"

"How can it be!"

"How did you know?"

Brando raised his hand to silence everyone: "Of course I know, Brayson, do you still remember the half-broken statue you found in Qingcun?"

"It's the one that looks like a demon, heavy and heavy." Brasen suddenly realized that the thing was found by Zeta and Ryans under a collapsed temple of Kalidas. They heard that they were there.

Traces of a knight were found nearby, and a search was carried out on the spot to find the thing.

Brando took out an ebony statue from his pocket: "That's called a gargoyle. You must have heard of it. It's a basic war unit of Buga, and the wizards control it through this thing."

He placed it on his open palm so that others could see it clearly. Most of the young people in the police force participated in the operation in Qingcun, and they recognized at a glance that this little thing was exactly the same as the statue.

"Wait, you mean you can control that thing?" someone asked.

"But can it move?"

"It has wings, can it fly?" The scout named Zeta stared at Brando from the back row and asked.

"Of course it can fly, and it flies no slower than a flying dragon. You know our flying dragon knights? Their status in Buga is similar to that of flying dragon knights. They are the best scouts on the battlefield. I use it to clear the way so that I can avoid it.

Open a large army of undead."

"Yesterday morning I noticed that Madala's march in the north encountered trouble. They had at least three squadrons stranded in Webin and failed to blockade the north bank of the Wech River in time. And because there was a problem with the coordination between them, I wanted to

The two undead armies in front of us are still unaware of the mistakes of their colleagues in the north."

"But unfortunately, when I was conducting further reconnaissance, the gargoyle was discovered by the troops stationed there, attacked and damaged. When I ordered it to return, it crashed in Qingcun——"

When Brando said this, Freya suddenly reacted: "So that's it, Brando, at that time you said you had your own private matters to deal with. No wonder you can always lead us to avoid danger, no wonder why you are doing so

You insist on going to Qingcun even though you are seriously injured. Do you want to repair that thing - why didn't you tell us?"

Brando was about to explain, but the future Valkyrie had already lowered her head: "I'm sorry, Brando, I was wrong too. I was still angry with you at that time, but I didn't know that you were thinking about everyone."

ha?

Brando felt that he was a genius. He could actually make up such a story out of a hurry. But he actually let Freya connect him from beginning to end. It was hard to tell whether he was too smart or Freya was too stupid. Seeing her

With that apologetic look on his face, Brando suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

But when Freya said this, she believed 80% of it at first. Freya is the best militiaman in this period, and she has a very good impression on Madden. She is also a Butcher, so there is no way she will come.

Lie to them?

Even Brayson couldn't help but rubbed his brow and asked: "Can that thing move again?"

"It's hard to say, I will try my best. I have reestablished contact with it, and the only thing left is to let it recover slowly on its own." Brando opened the river freely, and he said in his heart that if it can move, I can still use it here.

Talking nonsense to you.

A level 23 gargoyle, not to mention the corpse witch, even if Roscoe came in person now, he would still be in a hurry.

Brayson was not satisfied with this answer: "You are hopelessly stupid. People will still find you controlling the gargoyles flying in the sky. It would be much better if we had a scout in the sky now."

"It turns out that someone's ability is to shirk responsibility. Does it mean that you won't fight without me?" Brando sneered.

"snort--"

"Okay, don't argue. You still have to fight the battle yourself. But boy, we are convinced that what you said is true, but Madala's advance team is also staring at us in front of us. These hundreds of people moved together with a few

Individuals are different, do you really think we can escape?" Madden pondered for a moment and then asked.

"Then it's your responsibility, Captain Madden."

"Well said -" The veteran of the November War couldn't help but look at Brando deeply. He was a little strange, as if the boy knew what he would think, and every time he spoke, he just mentioned him.

Just like if you want to sing in a play and someone will immediately set up a stage for you, he couldn't help but think that this boy would have a great future if he changed his career and became His Majesty's jester.

But God knows, Brando knows his character well.

Thinking of this, Madden stood up and ordered in a deep voice: "I order the Butch Guards to gather here and prepare to execute the breakout plan!"

There was a silence all around, and then the members of the security team stood up with a whistle.

Then Madden turned back: "Zeta, go tell the villagers and let the men among them come out to gather. Now it is the turn of the men in Eruin to protect their homes and relatives -"

Zeta was stunned for a moment, then turned around and said: "Captain?"

"What are you looking at? In the end, are you cowardly and afraid of death? I tell you - now is the time for you to fulfill your promise, boys of the Butchi Guard. Before dawn, we will launch an attack on Madala's advance force.

Breakout attack, I predict that none of you will survive, but it doesn't matter, because the villagers of Butchi will take our bravery out and tell everyone in the outside world that we are not afraid of life and death and have done our duty.

Already."

In Brando's eyes, this veteran of the November War glanced at everyone's face one by one, with a solemn expression: "My past commanders often told me that you should die to protect others without losing honor.

, this is the fate of a warrior. Now I send this sentence to you intact, and I hope you will remember this honor——"

"So, what should you do? Brasen, I want you to lead the remaining villagers to break out from the Dagger River Beach. There is only one request. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Brayson's eyes flashed with a heavy light, but he lowered his head and replied.

"Very good." Madden nodded: "Boy, Freya, you two. I ask you to join the Butch Guard immediately as militiamen. Do you have any objections?"

Freya immediately shook her head.

But Brando nodded in front of everyone: "I have an opinion."

Madden was stunned: "Say," he couldn't help but glance at Brando: "But if you are a coward who is afraid of death, you can just get out of here. The Butcher Guard never accepts cowards.

No cowards."

There was a low laugh from all around, but surprisingly, Brayson on one side remained silent. Brando looked back at the guy, a little surprised, but his eyes fell on Roman again, thinking of the business girl and the previous one.

What he said.

"I have never met them. My aunt has been by my side since I can remember. My aunt said, little Roman, you should repay your aunt well when you grow up!"

"Is that why you want to be a businessman?"

"kindness."

"What a strange idea."

"It doesn't matter--"

Brando smiled slightly in his heart and raised his head. "Captain Madden, your decision is no problem from Butcher's point of view, but have you forgotten a question?"

"What's the problem?" Madden was stunned again, becoming more and more curious about this boy.

"The three towns of Butchi serve as the buffer zone for the front line of Lidenburg, and Buchi's garrison has always served as a warning outpost for Lidenburg. If we choose to leave here, what will happen to Lidenburg, which has not received any warning at all?

What kind of situation is this? If it can be said that we are fulfilling our duties, I don’t think so.”

Brando was talking eloquently, but the expressions of others gradually changed. He was indeed right. If it was just this, they had indeed failed to fulfill their responsibilities. If Madara was lucky enough to break through the Ridenburg defense line, then the Vanguard

The Mill-Lidenburg defense system is likely to become endangered.

As a result, the entire Golan-Elsen region may fall under the attack of the undead army. Thinking that one day Madara may come to the gates of Braggs, these young people couldn't help but lose their voices for a moment.

But what are they going to do?

"We have tried our best."

"There's only so much we can do, given the best possible circumstances."

"It's not that we gave up on Lidenberg, it's that Lidenberg gave up on us!"

But Madden stared closely at Brando, knowing that since the young man was willing to speak out, it meant that he must have a way.

"Yes, I happen to know that there is a way to break through to Lidenburg. Although the chance is slim, it is better than nothing." When Brando said this, he seemed to squeeze the air out of his chest and let out a deep breath.

.

He looked back at Roman again - the future businesswoman was thinking about something with her head down, grabbing her bag uneasily in a rare way.

"Which one?"

"Xavier Pass."

Madden couldn't help but gasp. Although he searched his memory, he still avoided this place subconsciously. He couldn't help but want to remind Brando, and wanted to ask the young man if he knew about the dangers there - that mountain road.

In the south of Beledo Forest, passing through the Yusong River Valley, close to the border between Eruin and the Barbarian Forest.

As long as you cross the valley to the south, you will see the edge of civilization, and you will see endless wilderness. Since the Year of Howling (l.350), no one who has entered that valley has come out alive.

I heard there is a dragon in the valley——

He felt that attacking Madala still had a hint of survival, but sending people there was like beating a dog with a meat bun. He thought about it for a while, but still couldn't get rid of this deep-rooted idea from his mind.

.

"That's a dead end, young man." The veteran couldn't help shaking his head.

"Doing your duty does not require you to do it, it only requires you to have done it." Brando replied.

"But I can't send my boys there to die. That would be irresponsible to them. A warrior should die with honor like a warrior."

"It doesn't matter." Brando replied, "I'll go."

There was dead silence.

"What, say it again?" Madden was dumbfounded.

"I go."

"Why, the responsibility of the Butchi Guard has nothing to do with you, young man, if you just want to show off, you might as well join us." The veteran couldn't help but ask.

"No, I'm not trying to be brave." Brando looked back at Roman and smiled slightly: "I have a reason why I have to go. As for the other reasons, they are just incidental. So little Roman, are you willing to go with me?

What——"

"Brando?"

Roman was stunned and raised his head with a look of surprise on his face.
