Chapter 304 (1/2)

It's already July. In terms of weather, it's rainy season.

It is located in the rollin Empire, which is the southernmost of the four empires. In the rainy season, it will not clear up all day.

However, since the British Empire officially launched the ”summer wind” offensive in early July, it has been sunny every day in any battlefield in the East, middle and West.

In his spare time, Albert also joked with others: it may be that the gods are paying attention to their Britannia Empire and have been sunny, so that they can better launch the offensive of the Britannia Empire.

However, this continuous sunny day was finally interrupted today, that is, in the evening of July 20, 290 of the British Imperial calendar.

The previously clear sky has been covered by dark clouds unconsciously.

Just looking at it, we all feel that the oppressive dark clouds separate the sky from the earth.

Then rain drops fell, connecting the sky and the earth.

The first rain since the ”summer wind” offensive was officially launched finally fell in the evening of that day.

Continuous rain fell from the sky, on the dry earth, on the green vegetation, and on the remnant of the Route Army in the demoralized British army.

The ragged war robes and broken armor stained with blood, sweat and sludge, the Broken Arrows inserted in the back, shoulders, arms and other places, and the anxious expression on the tired and haggard faces.

All this is announcing the identity of the Route Army in the British Army - a defeated army on the run.

Despite the successful withdrawal from the sola mountains a few hours ago, the Middle Route Army also suffered heavy casualties.

Before the expedition, the Middle Route Army, with a mighty force of 60000, had only more than 28000 people, less than half of the original number, after the battle of sola a few hours ago.

The Middle Route Army - can be declared disabled.

Eliza is riding on the same horse with Hai rou'er now. Eliza sits behind Hai rou'er and leans her small head against her back, sleeping and unconscious.

In the battle of sola a few hours ago, Eliza worked so hard that she was exhausted in order to open the retreat of the whole army as soon as possible.

After the whole army successfully evacuated from the sola mountains, Eliza, whose nervous tension relaxed suddenly, immediately fainted because of her physical overdraft.

The military doctors immediately gave Eliza emergency treatment.

Fortunately, Eliza is only a little injured in some parts of her body, and her physical strength is overdrawn. There is no big problem. She just needs to rest and recuperate.

In order to withdraw from the sola mountains as soon as possible, Albert ordered to discard all the baggage and articles that were not easy to carry.

For example - carriage.

When they withdrew from the sola mountains, all the carriages carried by the Middle Route Army were discarded.

Therefore, there is no place for Eliza to lie down and rest. She can only sit on the horse and sleep against Herr.

In addition to losing all the carriages, many baggage were also discarded.

In addition to grain, spare arrows, swords and guns, there are many raincoats.

Because the raincoat was thrown away in 7788, after the heavy rain, there were less than 10000 raincoats left in the whole army.

In other words, less than 10000 people in the whole army can be assigned raincoats to take shelter from the rain.

Finally, all the remaining raincoats were distributed to those who were seriously injured, so that their wounds could be stained with rain, so as not to trigger infection.

As for those soldiers who are not injured or less injured, they can only be wronged to be a drowned chicken.
