368 Alien Invasion 4 (2/2)
”All retreated soldiers are prepped and ready to fight, sir!”
”Enemy line has advanced 5 miles!”
Hallis then glanced over the horizon and saw the land being filled with enemies. It was easily over tens of thousands. They were powerful foes, but they lacked modern warfare experiencce. Their formations mirrored that of medieval times.
”Look at them. They think they won the entire battle because they won the last one.”
”Good for us, sir.”
”They're wide open for our attack.”
”Yeah.”
”Let's give them hell, sir.”
Cannons and explosives were fired from all sides at enemy lines. The war began again and soldiers fought a fierce battle.
”Sir, we have over 50 dead already.”
”Reinforcements?”
”We have enough.”
”Good. We can't mourn the dead yet. This is war. We can't let them have this place. You know that, right?” Hallis spoke to Baren.
”Yes, sir.”
”We have to hold out until reinforcements arrive. We'd rather die than give this place to them.”
Halis spoke grimly. This area was cold Buroin Fjord. If this place was breached, then it would lead the enemy directly to the most rich and developed port city of Veneth. The city had 10 million people living there. And the city was a trading hub for the entire Khalodian Empire.
”General! There's a new report of enemy reinforcements coming over at the Gate!”
”Understood.”
Hallis nodded and the messenger returned to their post. Baren became worried.
”Can we protect this place?”
”We have to. We can't lose this place.”
