"Extra, extra—Wall Maria was breached, giants attacked the city, and the garrison fought hard to resist."
"The giant broke through Wall Maria, killing tens of thousands of people and leaving hundreds of thousands of families homeless."
"Refugees are pouring into Ruth's Wall, supplies are tight, and prices are skyrocketing."
"The king ordered the formation of a wall-capturing army, vowing to take back Wall Maria."
"Wall Maria is in a miserable state, but the morale of the soldiers who captured the wall is high, and victory is just around the corner."
"The Wall Seizing Army sets off, targeting Wall Maria."
A gloomy cloud held a wooden gun shaft in his hand, holding a rusty iron spearhead. This was the equipment of most of the wall-snatching army.
Only the regular army has a wall of fire, and the task of the regular army is to drive the wall-seizing troops forward. Anyone who dares to retreat will be shot immediately.
A team composed of the old, weak, sick and disabled was completely useless to the king. Those who did not have the strength to cultivate the fields would only waste food.
Of course, there are also a small number of young adults in the team. They have exchanged their lives for the rights of their families to stay behind the Ruth Wall. Most of the young people are fathers or mothers, and their children are either too young to do things or are unable to do anything.
They are born weak and cannot do heavy work. So they are willing to trade their lives for their lives.
The team of 250,000 people divided into four directions and moved forward in four directions.
I have to say that it was very irrational for the king to disperse his troops. There were no heavy weapons in the first place, and it was simply unwise to divide the team into four. But the king had his own considerations, and he had no hope of retaking Wall Maria.
.The only reason why he divided his troops was that he was worried that all 250,000 people would mutiny, which he absolutely did not want to see. After dividing his troops, even if the mutiny would not be total, he could still go around and around.
The dark team was already desperate to die. No one thought they could escape from the giant's mouth. They wanted to go back behind the city wall, but they were surrounded by gendarmerie troops riding tall horses and holding steel guns. As long as anyone made any move,
, he will shoot without mercy.
In the wall-seizing army heading south to Xiganshina Urn City, there was an uncle, his name was Charles. He volunteered to join the wall-seizing army so that his old father could survive. When he escaped from the urn city, he
Someone asked him to go with him to find Dulan, but he refused for the sake of his father. But now that he thought about it, he was really naive. At that time, he heard Dulan say that the city wall would definitely be broken, firstly by giants, and secondly by
They were broken by themselves. Thinking about it, at that time, it was like hearing a joke. Duran said that if the city wall was broken by giants, those who survived would not only have to face the giants, but also face the oppression of the army. Now Duran
His words sounded as accurate as a prophecy, and Charles's eyes lit up. It seemed that many people had gone to look for Duran when the city was breached. Duran must have a way to keep them alive. Since there is no choice now
, then if you rush into the city wall and find them, you might still have a chance of survival.
However, it is impossible to return to Shiganshina Urn City with the strength of one person. You must find companions. As long as we help each other together, more people will be saved.
So while resting at night, Charles spread the story of the miraculous Duran widely. At the same time, he imitated Duran and began to speak, but now he spoke more persuasive and inflammatory than Duran.
The bonfire was burning brightly, and it only took two days for Wall Maria to be breached. There was no need to worry about encountering giants now, as it was not so fast.
Charles raised his right hand and said, "For Maria."
Others looked at Charles standing up strangely, and the Gendarmerie also saw it, but when they heard Charles say it was for Maria, they did not stop him. If someone came out to encourage momentum, the Gendarmerie would also be happy to see it.
of.
"My name is Charles, and I have something to say here today. Please listen carefully." In fact, there was no other sound except sighs, so Charles's voice spread around, "Maybe
Everyone thinks that we are going to die, and there is no need to listen to what I have to say. So please allow me to say, have you ever considered what death is? I once heard someone say this, and I think this person is still in Xigan now.
He led people and giants to fight in Xina Urn City. He said that death is not terrible. What is terrible is not knowing why we die. I didn't know the meaning of this sentence before, but now I understand. I am also afraid of dying, but I
I am willing to accept death, because I am doing it for my old father behind the wall of Ruth. For my father, I stand here voluntarily. If I think that my father can live, then I will not be afraid, because my behavior now
Some things have changed. So think about it, this is just me. There are more than 80,000 people here, and 80,000 me form a huge collective. As long as everyone can find something that can make us do it
Fight, die for, and our strength will crush the giants and take back Wall Maria."
Charles looked at those blank eyes and while talking, he suddenly felt a fire and a force in his chest. He wanted to vent and shout. At the same time, he also thought of his own when Dulan was giving a speech about tearing down the city wall.
Is the same look in his eyes? Yes, now is the time for what Duran called a last-ditch fight and a desperate fight. Charles's voice rose in vain.
"A great era has arrived, an era that does not rely on city walls, an era that relies on our own hands to create, has arrived, an era in which we must surrender, must endure humiliation, and must obey orders. We must fight, tirelessly, and never slack off. We must
Opposite us are giants and monsters. In their eyes, one of us is so small, but 80,000 of us will be great and surpass the giants. Let us raise our heads high and strengthen our belief. Our battle today,
It is so that our children will not be devoured by giants. It is not that we want to start a war now, but that the war has already started a hundred years ago. We and the giants are destined that only one side can survive. Then we have only one choice, lift us up
Weapons unite the strength of all of us, obeying the only command, which is to fight, fight, to the death. Our bodies will die, but our will is immortal, for Maria, for ourselves, and for mankind——
Till death -"
"Until death -"
Like a plague virus, the power of example is infinite, and the entire Confederate army was inspired by Charles's speech. Although many people only heard others repeat Charles's speech a few days later.
But now the clouds of sorrow have dissipated. They are no longer people who are going to die, but people who are fighting for humanity. Death is not terrible, as long as you know why you are dying.
