Chapter 604
Even though it was much smaller than the underground border town that had tens of millions of Wizard Li warriors already gathered there, and the defense fortification that still had at least several millions of warriors also stretched out to thousands of kilometers across the vast hills .
Even by just standing on this wall that was similar to the Great Wall of China on Earth would give rise to a feeling of despair, let alone attacking it . It was no wonder that the lieutenant commander in the strong army could not help himself but remind the commander about this, something that he rarely did .
\"As expected from the barbarian army formed by the new god . Just by strict military posture alone is already enough to elicit fear from Skull Crusher Libyas whose bravery is known to the world . \" The thin short young commander riding on the unihorn said in a leisurely tone, \"Since that's the case, flag bearer, notify the army to come to a halt and get into formation . \"
Upon hearing the command of the garrison commander, the knight holding the huge flag bowed and saluted . Like waving a weed in his hand, he waved the flag in his hand and at once, the magnificent army that was advancing gradually slowed down their pace within three steps before stopping directly . After that, with the central square as the core, they sprinted and changed into a fish scale-like orderly formations .
The sturdy man ridiculed by the commander and on the other hand, grumbled under his breath, \"What is so remarkable about the strong army under the god's command? It's not like there's no god that had not been killed by mortal heroes before in ancient times . Fear? I, Libyas, have never once tasted this word before…\"
\"Alright, Libyas, stop muttering . Commander Dubbine was just cracking a joke just now . \" An old man, who had a white goatee on his square face that was filled with trace of hardship and was wearing an armor covered with marks of swords and axes hacks in front of his chest, urged his mount to move a few steps forward next to the young commander and interrupted the lieutenant commander's words .
After that, he looked at Dubbine and said solemnly, \"Commander, we can't underestimate the enemy . We must be cautious . \"
In the face of the old man, the garrison commander had an expression that was completely unlikely of the seemingly slacking but actually intimate expression that he put on while dealing with his lieutenant commander . His casual expression changed and he politely yet stiffly said, \"Sir Kuchila, may I know the reason for your judgment?\"
\"I saw not only the Hellfire warriors but also the shadows of some mainland soldiers in the enemy's fortifications . \" the old man said with a low voice, \"A god that can eradicate the blood enmity of tens of thousands of years between the civilized humans and barbarians in such a short time and let them fight side by side must have a temptation that is unimaginable . Thirty years ago, I led the unihorn imperial guard to follow the former king to assist the newly risen Atandin King in a battle before . When we passed through the Wanz Plateau, we've fought with the northern border barbarian who believed in ancestor worship and learned just how horrifying the barbarian warriors who have pious belief as their spiritual support can be . When 10 to 20% of an ordinary army is injured and killed in a fierce battle, it would be defeated . As for a bloody battle involving elite troops, the soldier's will can still be maintained up to 40% casualty and death . For a strong army like our unihorn imperial guard, we can still continue to fight on when the troop is reduced by half in a battle . However, in that battle with the northern border barbarians that were surrounded and outnumbered by the army of three to one, none of them fled at all even down to the very last remaining warrior . In that battle, when the northern border barbarians whose stomachs were cut open tied their overflowing intestines at their waist as they held their stone axe to charge out again, I finally realized that superb combat skills, long training of formation changing, fine weapons and mounts could be completely compensated by a strong soul and a fighting spirit that was not afraid of death . The most powerful thing in a battlefield is not discipline but madness . \"
The words of the imperial guard's advisor were simple and unadorned but they sounded awfully bloody and caused the strong knights who had been on many battles before them to feel chills running down their spines at once .
These slight fear were concealed well by the others and only the straightforward rash lieutenant commander blurted out, \"Are these barbarian warriors really that terrifying, Sir Kuchil? To the point where they would still hold their weapons tightly to kill even though their stomachs have been sliced open? Then does this mean that we cannot win against these barbarians? We don't have any religion anyway . \"
\"Do you think we don't have any religion, Libyas?\" The old man turned around and looked at the distance . \"Then think about the home you're away from, your loved ones who are enjoying a wealthy life at the moment, the great Dignity King we vowed to dedicate our loyalty throughout our lives and all the things that are more important than our lives that will be lost if we're defeated… Now tell me, do you still feel that we don't have any religion?\"
\"Sir Kuchila, I understand now . It turns out that 'guarding' is also a kind of religion . \" After being silent for a while, Libyas the rash fellow actually blurted out a philosophy-like sentence before clenching his long-handled axed, \"In that case, I'll let the Hellfire barbarians taste the might of my religion . \"
\"This is not a war between countries, but a battle between civilization and barbarism . \" Sensing that the spotlight had been taken away by the old adviser, the young garrison commander's expression gradually turned gloomy, with a slight agitation in his heart . After a moment of pondering, he suddenly took out the sharp sword from his waist with determination and pointed at the sky . Summoning the vindictive energy in his body, he roared, \"Victory will only belong to the most heroic warrior! I order, all troops will make a long raid and the long-range attack troop will make three rounds of attack!\"
