Seven hundred and seventieth chapters bad omen
Beidaying is the location of the northern border defense camp of the Hanhai Empire. It is only 100 miles away from the border wall. It is stationed with 100,000 elite border defense soldiers all year round. Once the northern wall is attacked by barbarians, it can quickly rush to rescue.
The current marshal of the Northern Border Defense Army is Orlando. He was originally the marshal of the Imperial Western Expedition Army. At the glorious moment, he once led one million troops westward to occupy the entire Far East. The farthest front of the army pointed directly at the Nanchuan Province, the hinterland of the dynasty.
However, with the strong rise of the Nanchuan army led by Lin Chuan and the vigorous uprising in the Far East, Orlando's mishandling caused the loss of the occupied large areas again and the Imperial Western Expedition Army also suffered heavy losses. Therefore, his position was replaced by the newly appointed Marshal Simon of the Empire, and he was sent to the northern part of the Empire to defend against the barbarians.
Although Orlando still holds the title of Marshal, his status is no longer as good as before. Now he has only 200,000 border defensive troops, and is distributed on the long border line. Compared with the elite field elites who were able to conquer and fight, it is no longer the same as those under his command.
Although Orlando lost power and stayed in the bitter and cold northern area to guard the border, he himself was not depressed. After taking charge of the Northern Frontier Army, he vigorously and resolutely purged the border army.
During the months after taking over the border guards, he laid off the old and weak, trained soldiers, promoted young officers, and allowed the border guards to be reborn and renovated in a short period of time. Both military discipline and morale were greatly changed.
According to Orlando, there are solid and thick walls on the northern border to resist the barbarians. Although the barbarians have never broken through the city wall in the past long period of time, if the barbarians break through the city wall, then the soldiers of the border guards need to use their flesh and blood to build a new flesh and blood Great Wall to protect the empire's territory and guard the people behind them.
Although Marshal Orlando's idea of preparing for the future is very good, the senior generals of the border guards did not take it seriously. After all, behind the high walls of the North City, the strength of the barbarians could not be broken. It was not necessary to increase the training intensity and purify the army. Therefore, in the early stage, most of them were disobedient and disobedient.
Orlando once held the millions of field elites, and was not so easy to fool. After killing several senior generals of the Border Guardians who did not obey orders one after another, the Border Guardians realized from top to bottom that Orlando was not joking. After several months of purging, the Border Guardians have completely eliminated the laziness and frivolity and have been completely renewed.
The military's purge has entered a formality. Orlando's next plan is to establish a reserve system in the northern border areas. Once the border guards suffer major losses, they can be supplemented by the reserves. However, Orlando did not act too rush. After all, he is likely to stay in this bitter and cold place in the north for a lifetime, and he has plenty of time.
On this day, Orlando still got up and exercised as usual as it was dawn. Although he was already a marshal and did not need to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, he still did not abandon his ability to fight and kill the enemy.
After Orlando lifted the military tent, a sharp cold wind blew over, making him tremble all over. Looking at the dark clouds, he sighed, afraid that the storm would come again.
Sure enough, before his military fists were finished, the originally slightly bright sky had completely darkened. Although it was early morning, it seemed to be in the evening, followed by a strong wind and a heavy rain fell. The sky was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the lights had to be lit in the handsome tent.
"It's really strange. This storm is coming too weird." Orlando murmured to himself while eating breakfast.
Orlando thought for a moment and ordered the guards to say, "Let all generals come to our military tent to discuss matters."
The weather is very strange, with strong winds and heavy rains. The defenses in the city walls must be strengthened. If the barbarians take the opportunity to attack, it will be more than worth the loss. This is Orlando's idea.
Soon, the soaked generals arrived at the Orlando tent. His eyes swept over one of the young generals and asked, "General Liu Ting, what's going on with your head?"
General Liu Ting is a newly promoted young general from Orlando. He is not only brave in combat, but also meticulous in his mind. Orlando values it very much. At this moment, his head was wrapped in gauze, and the gauze was seeped out of red blood, which made Orlando puzzled.
"Report to the Marshal, when inspecting defense in the morning, the flagpole was smashed by the broken wind, which was fine." General Liu Ting heard Orlando's inquiry and hurried out respectfully to answer.
When Orlando frowned when he heard General Liu Ting's head was smashed by the flagpole that was broken by the wind. It was an ominous sign that the broken military flag was broken. Combined with this strange weather, his heart was covered with a layer of haze.
However, Orlando is not [31 Novel Network] who will say those words that shake the morale of the army, just telling the generals that it is a turbulent time now and be vigilant. Starting today, the alert level of whether it is Beidaying or the city wall defense will be increased by one level.
The generals accepted the order to leave one after another, but the wind and rain outside were getting heavier and heavier. The earth was hazy under the dark sky and could not see anything clearly. Looking at the downpour outside the tent, Orlando frowned and had a vague premonition. Could it be that there was a problem with the war in the Far East?
Now, except for fighting with the Nanchuan Army in the Far East, the entire empire is calm. According to the information, the Nanchuan Army has drawn a large number of elite soldiers to the Far East. Orlando is really worried about whether Marshal Simon is the opponent of the Nanchuan Army. He thought about it and decided to send people to inquire about the information about the Far East. If Marshal Simon was defeated, he might have a day to make a comeback in Orlando. Thinking of this, his brows stretched out.
Drive--Driving--
Orlando was about to turn around and return to the tent when suddenly a rapid sound of horse hooves sounded in the rain, and a cavalryman was soaked all over the horse galloped.
"Stop! Stop! This is the important place for the general tent! Those who trespassed will be killed without mercy!" Before the cavalry could rush to the scene, a large number of guards wearing strong and holding sharp-stricken soldiers had surrounded him to prevent him from getting closer.
"I am the scout in the First Brigade! I have an emergency military report!" The cavalry did not dismount and stood on the horse and roared.
"Take him here," Orlando ordered.
Soon, the soaked scout cavalry was sent to Orlando. When he approached Orlando, he found that the scout cavalry from the First Brigade had several arrows inserted into his chest, and blood was flowing out. He was already extremely weak at this moment. Orlando frowned and felt a little uneasy.
"I'm Orlando, what are your emergency military information?" Orlando asked impatiently.
"Master Marshal, the barbarians have come here, they have broken through the city wall! Our First Brigade has been defeated, run away..." The scout cavalry reported loudly regardless.
"What are you talking nonsense? You're really looking for a fight!" The captain of the personal guard team kicked him to the ground when he heard the scout saying these words that shake the morale of the army.
Orlando glared at the captain of the personal guards. The captain of the personal guards did not dare to do it again. Orlando was about to ask the scout cavalry again, but he had fainted.
"Wuwuwu--" Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded from the camp's whistle. Orlando's face changed and he hurriedly ordered the captain of the guards: "Go and see what's going on!"
