Chapter 292: The Battle of the Eagle Regiment
Looking at Serpegao lying on the bed, covered in bandages and gauze, Farna's face was full of guilt, if it weren't for her, Serpegao would not have been so seriously injured, and even almost died.
People are like this, when they do something wrong, they think about what happened at that time, but they never think that the road was chosen by themselves, and it is too late to regret it, and what needs to be considered is how to remedy it, rather than falling into self-blame.
Her expression changed, Farnase struggled in her heart for a while, and finally decided to let go of the arrogance in her heart, but when she took a deep breath, she resolutely got up, and when she went out, she whispered, "You used to protect me, and now I protect you, brother..."
Serpygao, who was unconscious, didn't seem to hear it, but there was a smile of relief on his face, and he couldn't tell whether he heard it or was dreaming like this.
The main tent, the cadres of the Dragon Regiment gathered, and Wayne sat on the first call to give orders.
"Gus, lead your assault regiment to Lidom to reinforce Griffith, and I'll have Rickett lead the archers to assist you."
"Zod, your hoplites are now going to stop the White Hats from the west, and I will let Laugus's cavalry regiment break into the battlefield and be sure to wipe them all out of the city!"
"Sonia, let Xunying inform our allies and tell them that Desa doesn't need a governor!"
As everyone took the order, Wayne spread out the map on the case, looked down and thought about what he was thinking.
At this moment, Farnase walked in gently, and Wayne looked up, a meaningful smile on his face, "Now, Miss Farnase is finally willing to talk to me properly?" ”
Farnase's face was slightly red, and he lowered his head and gritted his teeth, "What happened before, I offended Lord Wayne, and I hope to forgive my sin." ”
Without the heart to continue to fight this arrogant eldest lady, Wayne waved his hand, "There is no need to say polite words, you and I are very clear about our respective situations, now I ask you, can you give up the lead and cooperate with me?" ”
There was a hint of hesitation, but finally nodded.
Seeing that she was willing to cooperate, Wayne had a satisfied smile on his face, "In that case, my dragon group has officially provided you with shelter now, and you will never be hurt in the slightest during your stay in Desa." Also, you can say a word on my behalf to your father who is the head of the Bandio family, and you will be the spokesperson for my cooperation with the Bandio family. ”
Farnase was stunned when he heard this, and immediately whispered grateful, "I can't thank Your Excellency enough for your feelings. ”
There is no doubt that Wayne can be said to be benevolent to her, not only did he not pursue his previous rudeness, but even provided shelter for her, and at the same time let her have enough capital to continue to gain a foothold in the Knights of the Holy Iron Chain, and have the right to speak in the Bandio family, such a good thing cannot be found with a lantern.
Only, what can she give Wayne?
"Lord Wayne, with all due respect, your conditions are too good, and I, what do I have to give?"
The transaction must be reciprocal and fair, she will not be stupid enough to do anything for Wayne in her capacity without the slightest use, I am afraid that the only role is her own female body.
Looking at the doubts on her face, Wayne smiled and shook his head, "I'm afraid Miss Farnase still doesn't know her worth, but now is not the time for me to make conditions, you can rest assured to accept my kindness." Of course, if when the time comes to my terms, I think it is appropriate, you can't refuse, how? ”
A wry smile appeared on Farnase's face, "Do I need a better choice?" ”
"It's a pleasure to work with."
Lidoma, a village about 100 miles east of Hamak.
There was a great battle going on here, and the two camps were seen from the flags, one was the Eagle Regiment led by Griffith, and the other was the Knights of the Lota garrison who had sailed from Lotta to Desa.
Judging by the corpses everywhere and the varying degrees of injuries of the living, the battle has been going on for quite some time.
A sword cut the throat of the enemy in front of her, Griffith gasped slightly, looking at the Lotta garrison that was still coming forward, she showed a wry smile on her face, with 1000 to 3000, almost a one-to-three battle ratio, although almost all of the eagle regiment were elites, they couldn't withstand such a big disparity.
Kasgar has repeatedly asked whether to retreat, and if this continues, I am afraid that the whole army will be on the verge of annihilation.
"Commander, we can't go on any longer, we've already lost nearly half of our people."
Jie Du, who rushed to Griffith's side, gasped and worried, "We don't have a grudge against Lotta, and after this battle, once the matter leaks out, our actions are tantamount to treason." ”
Griffith slashed several more enemies one after another, his face expressionless, "This is my promise, it must be done." ”
"To repay the grace of saving lives? Isn't it enough that you have done your best and sacrificed so many of your companions? ”
Griffith smiled bitterly, "I admit that I was selfish, but I just want not to owe him anything, that mission to exterminate the Canaam rebels, if he hadn't saved me, I'm afraid I would have died a long time ago, this is what I owe him." ”
"I see." Jet took a deep breath, "Then let's hold on until the last minute!" ”
"I'm sorry, for my sake..."Griffith looked guilty, in order to repay Wayne's kindness, but let so many companions sacrifice, the guilt in her heart made her heart suffer.
"Well, Commander, from the moment we followed you, we never regretted it..."
Looking at the smile on Jet's face, Griffith was stunned, and a soft smile appeared on his face, "It's the luckiest thing for me Griffith to meet you. ”
As the battle continued, it was difficult for one person to turn the situation around, and despite how brave Griffith was, he could not break through the enemy's encirclement, and gradually, only 200 people were killed and wounded in the Eagle Regiment, while the other party still had about 1,000 people.
They defeated the opponent with 800 people, a full 2,000 people, a battle loss ratio of more than one to two, and the Eagle Regiment deserved the name of elite. Now, however, they are in danger of destruction.
Watching her former companions fall, Griffith's heart was cut by a knife, her selfish retribution had caused them to die, and for the first time in her heart she thought that war was a sin, and she longed to change the decaying situation.
Sweeping past her desperate companions, she looked out at the horizon, she longed for Wayne's reinforcements, and she didn't want her remaining companions to continue to die.
Shrinking the encirclement, the head of the Knights of the Lotta garrison waved his hand, ready to launch a final attack.
At this moment, a rain of arrows suddenly fell above the sky, densely penetrating the crowd and bringing fluffy blood flowers. Immediately afterward, a rapid vibration accompanied a group of black-armored warriors to burst into the battle.
At the head of the list was Wayne's commando captain Gus, who, armed with a great sword, was unrivaled among thousands of troops, approaching the commander of the garrison knights step by step, and in his horror, cutting his men and horses in half.
Seeing this scene, Griffith's heart was shook, and exhaustion hit his heart.
Just as she was about to faint to the ground, she fell into the embrace that she was very familiar with, and at the last moment when she was about to close her eyes, she saw the same face that held her out of the encirclement as last time, and raised her right hand with all her might, as if trying to touch his face, and muttered, "I don't owe you anything..."
Wayne took her fallen hand, pursed his lips, and whispered, "You never owed me anything..."
