Anyone who wants to follow me, I, Petrius, welcomes you. If I, Petrius, have a mouthful of food, my brothers will be indispensable. If you don’t want to follow me, then just stay here."

Hearing that Petrius was leaving, the officers around him all breathed a sigh of relief. For their officers, in this situation, neither disobeying Hardou's orders nor drawing swords on their comrades, perhaps leaving is the most correct thing.

choice.

Otherwise, Kirkforth's Confederate Army would have to kill half of its own men.

Munch screamed loudly from behind the crowd: "You can't let him go. Come on, come on!"

The surrounding officers suddenly became angry. Holding bright swords, they turned back and looked at Monk with evil eyes, ready to make a move.

Everyone has long disliked that guy who only flatters everyone. Especially now, when he is here to encourage everyone to kill each other.

You know, among the two armies, there is a brother who is a compatriot!

Hadu's personal guards saw that something was wrong and immediately protected Munch in the middle.

Munch shouted angrily: "This is disobedience and rebellion. I will report it to Lord Hardu. I..."

Looking at the Confederate soldiers slowly approaching with weapons, Hadou's guard captain pulled Monk and shook his head to tell him to shut up.

If Monk kept shouting, they would probably be killed by the angry Confederate soldiers.

The emotions of these officers and soldiers are extremely unstable now. Once they are suppressed forcefully, it will inevitably lead to an even stronger backlash.

The guard captain hesitated for a moment. Then he took a step forward and said in a deep voice to Petrius: "Please help yourself, my lord."

Petrius smiled bitterly, raised his head and looked carefully at the familiar soldiers and passes in front of him, as if he wanted to imprint all of this in his mind, and then waved his hand and said decisively: "Let's go~!"

The gate of the fortress opened slowly. Under the silent gaze of the Confederate officers, Petrius, the Confederate officers and soldiers who followed him, and their families walked out of the gate of the Zinderen Pass fortress and headed north.

Lorraine opened the curtain of the big tent and looked melancholy at the majestic fortress in the distance.

The fortress looked particularly clear after the rain. Even the mountains and forests nearby were lush and green. The air was also filled with the unique green fragrance of wild grass.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Life is really... life is so damn~!

Originally, after receiving Petrius's letter, all the senior leaders of Laohe's army were very excited.

General Hadou is seriously ill and bedridden, and is about to lose his hair. However, his son is far from enough in terms of ability and prestige, and cannot suppress the South at all.

Once the second-in-command in the Southern Army defectes to the enemy, the dangerous Zintulun Fortress in the south, which is said to be one man in charge and cannot be opened by ten thousand men, will already be under control.

It can be said that this battle is half won.

Lord Luo was so happy at the time that he almost shouted Marshal Mai's most famous slogan "Let the children go home for Christmas".

Of course, when the children return home, they no longer need to spend such a large military expenditure, and they can also relax the prince's wallet.

Originally, this was a win-win situation where everyone was happy. But...but that old bastard Hadu was so stubborn that he actually believed Brother Chun.

Damn it, he actually came back to life in full condition at the most critical moment.

Then a message was sent, which stabilized the originally chaotic situation in the south. The dignified Petrius, the second most important general in the south, had to abandon the city and flee in embarrassment.

It only took a few days to pacify the south, as easy as looking at the lines on the palm of your hand.

Sir Alex Ferguson has to admire him: Hadou is indeed a famous general of the generation~!

At this time, Lord Luo also suddenly discovered that the sentence "Send the children home for Christmas" was simply a call from the evil spirits**.

The idiot commander shouted those words back then, and then his misfortune began.

And Sir Alex was not far behind. First, due to heavy rain for days, the water in the Zamibia River surged.

Although preparations were made in advance and no one was injured, the flood destroyed half of the boats on the river.

The flood also cut Laohe's troops into two sections, front and rear. Food and grass supplies from the rear could not be transported at all.

Lord Luo is not the famous evil general in the Battle of Imphal. He clearly knows that 'before the troops and horses are moved, food and grass go first'. This is an iron law of war that must not be violated.

Therefore, the hundreds of thousands of vanguard troops who were crossing the river lay there for several days. Seeing that the food carried by the army was almost exhausted, and food rationing was about to be implemented, the river water calmed down.

The conscience of heaven and earth. As a modern army that Lord Luo created and was quite proud of, he actually wants to implement food rationing in the army. This makes Lord Luo really lose face, and he is very proud of it.

It's a big shame.

At that time, he thought very seriously about the feasibility of implementing a literary inquisition. Even if he had to risk his life, he would never allow the record of this incident to be passed down.

This would not only bring shame to him, but also bring shame to all the time-travelers.

Later, food and military supplies were delivered, and the troops gradually regained their mobility.

But as soon as we set off, it started raining again.

Although we were more fully prepared this time and mobilized a lot of large ships to ensure transportation on the Zamibia River, the damn roads in the south were extremely muddy.

Coupled with the stampede of tens of thousands of troops, the road was so muddy... it was like a baby's poop, yellow with white, white with yellow, and some green, black and white.

The color is so disgusting that just looking at it makes you want to vomit.

Not to mention walking on it - no matter what kind of shoes you are wearing, as long as you take a step on it, your shoes will get stuck in it immediately.

In addition, the south is inherently hot, and there are many snakes, rats, insects, ants, and all kinds of poisonous insects. And they are all very good at camouflage.

If you accidentally come across it, a bite will be fatal.

Although there were not many cases, and the chaplains who accompanied the army followed closely to provide timely rescue, but... this kind of thing was extremely damaging to morale.

Every time it spread, all the soldiers in the order were frightened. They took a step forward, all widened their eyes and looked carefully before they stepped forward. They were afraid that they would be bitten. Then they carefully looked at the next step.

Landing point, and then moving forward...

When they finally relaxed their vigilance and began to march, the news of "someone had been bitten" came again. Once again, they became as alert as rabbits who heard the wind.

In fact, these are pretty good. The most terrifying thing is the grassland around the road. It is also full of murderous intentions.

Although the grassland does not look any different from other places on the outside, due to the continuous rain, it has actually turned into a swamp.

With its mouth wide open, it just waits for any unlucky person to pass by, and then swallows him in one gulp without even spitting out the dregs.

In addition, there was continuous rain, which made many people in the army sick. The military doctor's Red Cross tent was full of people. Most of them suffered from colds and dysentery, vomiting and diarrhea... etc.

Waiting for symptoms of acclimatization.

This is the result of Lord Luo dragging them here to train for several months.

Although Lord Luo was eager to get in touch with Petrius, seize Zinderen Fortress, and gain the initiative on the battlefield, under such circumstances, Laohe's troops were moving at a speed not much faster than a snail.

In fact, Leo caught a turtle without causing trouble, tied a red line on it, and let it race with the troops on the roadside.

As a result, they discovered the next day that the turtle had already left them far behind.

Therefore, Sir Alex is extremely capable. Facing such bad weather, he can only look at the ocean...well, look at the rain and sigh, there is no way.

And when the weather finally cleared up, a thunderbolt struck his feet with a "click". Hadu woke up.

Moreover, with just one message, the south was conquered. Petrius, who was in a loss, saw the opportunity and ran quickly, otherwise, he would have been beaten to death.

Lorraine raised his head, looked at the majestic fortress between the two mountains, and sighed in his heart: It seems that the attack on the city is inevitable~!

At this moment, I heard footsteps next to me.

And when we were far away, we heard the loud and cheerful voice of the other party, saying: "Ha, Lorraine, you are here, I have something to discuss with you."

Lorraine turned around and saw a burly man striding over. Heavy military boots stepped on the road that had just rained, causing water to splash. The attendants next to him took cover.

Lorraine couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Apart from Leo and Xiao Bai, this man is the only other person who can run rampant and arrogant among Lao He's troops. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to recommend it.
