9 Its Time To Kill Or To Be Killed (2/2)
”These five are our responsibility.”
” So what if they destroy us?we will rebuild the village over and over again!”
”We are not new to wars, are we, chief?!”
People from the crowd vigorously respond one after the another.
The soldiers were speechless. They did not know how to respond to this massive positivity and support. In the mainland, soldiers are nothing but tools that need to keep the country safe. They were nothing but guards, that guarded the gates of Nobles at nights like dogs. That was how Ares and the others were treated, until they came here.
This village really moved the hearts of every soldier standing on the stage. A tear dropped from Yang's left eye and he didn't let anyone watch his soft side.Tisha who has been watching Yang from the start from the crowd took a notice of his soft side, and was surprised to see that Yang wasn't what he seemed to be at all, from the outside.
Mars turned to face the soldiers.
”We people are also training with arms from some years since our village always get plundered with raids. So please soldiers, help us fight for our homes.” Mars asked the help of Ares and others, in a very polite and humble voice.
”Of course chief!!!! it would really be a great honour fight alongside your people” Ares said while tears rolled down his face. How can he turn him down when these people love and respect soldiers so much. They are even willing to fight for them. For them, who are merely lowlife soldiers in their own country.
”We either kill the enemy or die by their hands! Get ready for the war!it's time to kill or to be killed!”. Mars shouted and let the villagers hear his war cries.
Everyone left and started preparing for the battle. Ares and the rest followed to discuss the strategies.
”There are four units in our village.”
”First - The guards, they will guard our rear and stands in front lines with spears and their bodies as armours.”
”Second - The archers, they can hold a particular position and can also snipe far away from people.”
”Third - The medics, they are well versed in medicine and can save and help the inured people on war ground itself. They are also familiar with weapons to support the troops and.”
”Lastly the ”Supporters”, they will be the ones conveying messages and reports from front lines to mid-range fighters, from them to the archers and from archers to base camps. They'll also risk their lives to discover any hidden enemy units or traps. In short, they are our communicators and messengers.”
”Let us all find a way to do the impossible” Mars explained his village power to Ares and the soldiers carefully.
”I'm going in too.”
”I will hold the weapon and nurse the injured ones.” Gus who was standing beside the soldiers all this while, said with a pretty confident tone.
