Translated by Tianic, edited by Grammarly
Sounds of hoofbeats were closing in
All slave soldiers went pale What they did not expect was thatIn any case, revolted slaves would never survive under such a circumstance
Now the slaves can't help but remained still, broken down and cried
Suddenly, a burst of hailing blew out from the slave crowd Chappie turned to the sound location He saw aout of the mob It was Maru!
Maru grabbed a rein fro, hailing wildly towards the knights that wereinto them from behind
”Everyone, be not afraid! I'ion! AUF has failed That eion officer's voice rose timely, ”Ordered by our Supreme Commander Cohen Kheda, all slave soldiers are free to join our troops and becohts behind are our men!”
The announcement caused an uproar within the slaves!
Meanwhile, in theriders, a scout rode beside his commander
”Sir, an onco with our army semaphore, should we detain him?”
”Bring him in!”
Moments later…
”COMMANDER WILDER! IS THAT COMMANDER WILDER!? I' Battalion!” Maru shoutedclose to Wilder, ”Our troopers are deadly in danger, you have to hurry!”
Having heard Maru, the worn-out Wilder's eyes kindled, ”Are you saying that Cohen and the rest are not dead! They're still alive?!”
”The commanders are fine!” Maru replied loudly, and he made a brief description of what happened today, ”Our troops have scuffled with the enemy's main in the clay city for a whole day They're extremely exhausted Also, enemy's slave are of, sir! There're a limited amount ofnarrow tunnels in the outer city!”
”Take a battalion, stir up the slaves iht and ready the assault”
”Yes, sir!” Thus Maru hts in a blink of an eye
”Brothers of the slave army, we the PUF troops have arrived! Maru raised an arh spirit on his horse, ”From now on, march onward and you're one of us, all who run are out ene for? No one would have you slave-marked ones on this continent except for our commander
”Right… think of the slaves that surrendered before!”
”Listen to the 10 Chapters that are crying for help!”
”There stand our clan leaders, townsmen, and families!”
”Anyway, you've rebelled Now follow Sir Cohen and start enjoying your lives!”
”Let it be a welcoift for Commander Cohen…”
While the officers were agitating the slaves, Wilder took his ti formation and smoothly delivered the news that his superior Cohen was safe and sound At once, the whole team of riders roared to cheer!
This gang of knights under Wilder's co overseas, they were standing by as they were ordered After losing contact with Cohen, Wilder had sensed that situation was probably going south Therefore he selected a lonely spot on the P/A Line and forced his landing Thereafter, the whole tea for Cohen's whereabouts
They first hiked towards Camp for more than 200 miles; then they assaulted an arees, thus the horses Only until yesterday did they track down Cohen's location at a feeding station
When they learned that Cohen was trapped deadly by 300, 000 hostile troops in a tiny clay city down the grand canyon, this team of 10, 000 ht, theythe ene and battling on the incredibly complicated P/A Line landform to finish a journey of over 200them were their commander's mortal enemies; Wilder has readied all the fun for them
The slaves were in a line shape as well Now they were looking at their former masters: the Asmodian United Forces At first, the slaves that revolted in the caitated by men like Maru and the i and riding towards theeneral principles into easy-to-understand words So the slaves ca on one of the two opposing armies, and they did just revolt one of theh these de men were not so reconciled to adather the towards the clay city
Meanwhile, in the clay city, AUF had to pour in its last resort because Cohen has pulled out his final and fiercest reserve of ht back At the time he knew the slaves have revolted, the Lieutenant General had no extra troops to suppress the uproar, so the best he could do was calling back 4 regiuard his rear in the hope that these unco the impossible However, it did not occur to the Lieutenant General that 10, 000 PUF light calvaries were behind the slaves Inti for their lives Had no way to escape, they sure need to offer a fitting tribute to their new master
Slaves were undoubtedly unable to ride, but they were driving a fraction of the horses which the AUF 26th Legion had left behind Thus led by these thousands of horses, the men and the animals swamped into AUF's last defense line!
How could war horses be able to tell friends or foes? In a fraction of a second, AUF's weak defenses hiding within the dozens of tunnels located in the clay city walls were broken entirely! As the horses continuedforward, they shattered AUF's backup troops and made it into inner clay city
No slaves led by the horses spared hands for the scattered AUF soldiers They let off their hatred that was buried so deep to those AUF soldiers running out of luck Everyone kne to beat up an underdog
The Lieutenant General and the only men left for him circled by their banner and deployed a tenaciously defend session However, this ti, the one as nicknaster' by Cohen
Wilder and his men marched down to the Lieutenant General's location They wasted no ti system down the banner back to their hos All the more so, Wilder bounced onto the wall top and chopped down Lieutenant General's head!
”ALL HAIL PUF!” Wilder kicked his eneh the Lieutenant General's head, ”ALL HAIL the invincible Cohen Kheda!”
The eyes on the bleeding head were still glaring Lieutenant General died in an uproar
”ALL HAIL PUF! ALL HAIL the invincible Cohen Kheda!” Thousands of ether
This shouting from behind hasin blood shuddered with fear, it also gave the ultih spirit to the PUF soldiers who knew that they will most definitely die today
During the recent dozen days of fighting, AUF has thoroughly learned the power of its foe As of today, the situation of the fight was the eable AUF soldiers would never carry on till this e for victory But now, Lieutenant General's head was hanging on an ene sounds ca, they barely persisted
Sensing yet another alteration of the situation, Gardena who has been leading the drureat passion, he was about to change the rhyth that ca s of blood Then iiant drum
After the day's tense fight, as well as several huge extends of psychological turbulence, this aged and weak body finally collapsed
”CHIEF!” A Gardena's close apprentice rushed over and held up Gardena from the mud
”Chapter… hurry… Chapter Hunt!” Gardena gazed at his student, he shi+vered to speak, ”The lead rhythm… heartbeat… variation… variation must…”
Gardena was indeed the chief leader of the 36 tribes Chapter Hunter could not only lead direction for people but could also tell friends from foes It was the best chapter to direct the slaves blindly fighting in this chaotic war
”Yes!” The apprentice wiped away the tears from his cheeks then he picked the master drumsticks
Druain on the clay city wall By the neat blowings of horns, Chapter Hunt took over the fight, gathered the ht direction as well as the right tiradually closed his eyes at the start of the music
Conducted by the drumbeats, the slaves marched into their enemies from two sides of the bastion in order to avoid the central ones As for Wilder's troops, they confronted AUF's 26th Legion that ca to support
The ulti result showed
AUF's 26th was an ar on horsebacks but lack the knowledge of co on their feet They were merely forced to unmount because of the intensified battle PUF, on the other hand, as Cohen's subordinates, they were entirely trained under Dark City's military system These men will be the best infantries without horses and the best horsehting wills PUF made AUF suffer in the first round of the confrontation
Even before the initial contact, PUF's strikers fired a burst of rapid arrows Before the whinings went away, PUFs fetched their enhanced crossbows Thus AUF's formation was destroyed by waves of arrows as PUF pierced in like a trenchant blade
After the soldiers on their horseback depleted their arrows, sabers were drawn As countless extended sharp edges brought trails of death, AUFs were chopped of their heads even before their own blades reached the ene their final resistance, their 'Cecilia' sounds greeaker and weaker
A landslide failure was crowned so hters from the start, they've finally failed
But the knights that passed the ene until they reached the center of the AUF's bastion Unlucky for the AUFs, they did fill full of the hateful traps with their own bodies; and the clay walls in the stronghold was never very rigid After going through the sabotage of the battle as well as washed by an unprecedented storm and the lash from the war horses that ran in earlier, the walls were all theHow could AUF now fend themselves with broken walls?
They can never shape a co the debris of the ruins AUF has sunken into a rock hard dilemma
However, PUF was in a completely different situation Cohen's initial as to kill more enemies before he died, how could he know that the position transfor his ar hailing just wouldn't stop
With grand joy, Cohen, as well as his staff officers, wounded soldiers, and refugees froanized a new battle systeht back and successfully converged with the revolted AUF slave army within the bastion
After the situation stabilized, Cohen assigned the works Then he ordered the staff officers back to the wall
”Gardena! Give me a different chapter…” At the scene of the old hed He pulled Gardena's body up, put his left hand on the dead's waist and cross the old ether You will see victory!”
”Send my order! Round them up” commanded Cohen, ”Lead the drum!”
”Yes, sir!”
When Cohen's ared here in the clay city, AUF had e battle, they were still up to 300, 000 Aside fro armies, AUF's 3 primary forces had nearly 140, 000 From the start of today until now, 50, 000 AUF soldiers were still combat-effective One could say it was a fierce battle
Cohen understood that if he let these 50, 000 eneht back, Wilder's ars any easier for theet away AUF was not an army to be overlooked
So he absolutely was not going to give the enemies any chance to breathe
