The Fate of the Gunman

——————

Outside the northern fortress is the white snow, and Najiexitan, who is standing on the city wall, clasps her arms and looks at the silence outside the city, but there is a rush of footsteps when she does not know what she is thinking. But it came from behind.

"General Najieshitan!"

"What happened again? Where did the problem happen?"

The frontier army can guard the north. Generally speaking, there is no problem in dealing with the foreign nations in the north, but the premise is the'general situation'.

Although the alien races in the north do not have much blood relationship with the west, their situation is similar. They do not have a unified leader, and more are countless large and small tribes united. In previous years, these alien races even attacked the northern fortress. Looting was only a small-scale attack, but it is different now.

Countless large and small tribes began to attack the various jurisdictions of the fort in a planned way. Although they were repelled in the end, the result of running around was that the entire northern fortress fell into a low morale. After all, they did not eat well and sleep well every day. Only if you have morale can you live to hell.

Although Najiexitan later brought people to support, which eased the shortage of soldiers to a certain extent, the soldiers who did not adapt to the northern environment increased the pressure of logistical supplies on the fortress after the initial bravery, and people were sent every day. Go, it can even be said that this kind of non-combat attrition has exceeded the number of soldiers killed by the enemy.

But the only good news is that after more than half a month of adapting, the current soldiers are much better than they were at first.

It’s just that recently the aliens have changed their running around and started a'wide-scale battle'. When they were caught off guard, two mobile units were defeated by each other. Now Najiexi is having a headache. How to make up for this gap? When she arrived in a hurry, she conditioned to think that there was something wrong.

"No, it's the support from the Imperial Capital!"

"Imperial Capital?"

To be honest, when Najie Xitan was recognized as the commander of the northern fortress, she still looked dumbfounded. No matter how she looked at it as a temporary commander, it wasn't something she could accomplish as a'newcomer', right?But later learned that this was an order from the emperor himself, even if she was puzzled, she could only bite the bullet.

Now the imperial capital has sent reinforcements?Are you planning to remove her?

Although she was relieved, her mood was still extremely complicated.

"Which general is the leader?"

"It's General Lancer!"

"Lancer?"

When she heard Lancer's name, Najiexitan was stunned for a moment. It seemed to be a bit weird, but then it seemed normal to calm down and think about it.

Lancer's reputation has been completely demonized throughout the empire, but the people who corresponded to it were more talking about his actions, and most people agreed with his own strength.

Whether it was the title of'executioner' that was originally created on the western border, or the trial and beheading of countless nobles in the imperial capital, of course the most amazing thing is that one of the biggest forces in the empire, the Huangquan Temple, was burnt overnight. thing.

These three things are enough to make people talk about it for a long time on one person, but Lancer is all-inclusive. People can say that Lancer has a violent character, it can be said that he has no compassion, it can be said that he is crazy, but absolutely No one dares to say that the other party is'weak'.

It is not incomprehensible that such a powerful general was sent to take over the already rotten front in her hands.

However, it is inevitable that her mood is a little depressed.

"I'll go to meet each other..."

Najie Xitan, who felt that she was about to be beaten up to her hometown, and might even be demoted, seemed a little weak, but when he came down from the city wall, he met another'acquaintance'.

"General Liwa."

"General Najieshitan."

Liva, a meticulous middle-aged man in a military uniform and tidying up his clothes and beard, respectfully bowed to his subordinates when he saw Najieshitan, and although Najieshitan was a little embarrassed, she returned a good bow .

The reason for the embarrassment is of course not that the two of them have any contradiction or that she hates each other, but that the other's attitude makes her a little overwhelmed. The general who became famous ten years earlier than her is not inferior to her in terms of strength and reputation, and even She had to win by two points, but wanted the other party to be her adjutant. She really felt very embarrassed.

Liva's personality is relatively old-fashioned, but he is not an idiot. He knows that what he does will embarrass the other party, but in his opinion it is'as it should', but he does not do what he should do. Will continue to put too much pressure on the other party.

"General Najeshitan, let's meet Lancer together."

"Ok."

The two walked side by side, Na Jie Xitan felt extremely embarrassed, so she simply found a little topic.

"I heard that General Liwa and General Lancer worked together. Although it was said that I spent a short time with each other in the imperial capital, how should I get along with each other next?"

"Are you getting along with Lancer? It's easy, just keep it as you are now."

"?"

"Lancer is a very pure warrior. People who are good to him will naturally be good to each other. So General Najieshitan, you only need to maintain the status quo."

Liva's always serious expression also inevitably gives a hint of memory.

Lancer has been in this world for a year and a half, and he spent nearly a year in the Western Frontier Army. It can be said that Liwa and Lancer are the people who have known each other the longest time, and Liwa has always performed It is the most dangerous task. The teammates around him have changed from batch to batch. Even if he can survive a few battles, whether he is promoted or retired, Lancer can be said to be one of the people with the longest cooperation with him. Some sigh.

Na Jiexitan just nodded and didn't make any comments.

Chapter 57: The Key to Different Nations in the North

"Long time no see, Captain Liva!"

"Long time no see, let the guards enter the city first."

The Guards were still some distance away from the city gate, and Lancer dismounted in advance and walked over to meet with Liva, but Liva did not rely on the old to sell the old. After all, he himself liked Lancer very much.

Being strong enough to move forward bravely in combat, the most important thing is to have a hard life.

"General Najieshitan, I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Long time no see."

After a simple greeting, everyone went to the city one by one. Although Lancer proposed to go directly to the conference room, no one refused to do so. Anyway, the Guards will have a logistics department specifically responsible.

"Captain Liwa, I want to ask what is the situation in the fortress now? Although I read the report about this place from General Bud, there was a delay after all. What is the situation now?"

"The situation is not very good. There are 5,000 resident soldiers in the fortress. The previous attack by foreign nations caused more than 500 soldiers to withdraw from the battle sequence. Later, General Najiexitan and I brought 5,000 local troops to support, but because we did not Adapting to the weather here, there are now nearly 800 non-combat attritions. Although the problem of soldiers that can still persist until now should not be too big, but at most 70% of the combat effectiveness, plus the strength of the local army is weak. For the Border Army, I am afraid..."

Although I didn’t say any more, I can see how helpless Liwa was about the strength of the North Wind Fortress. If the time is delayed, the entire fortress may not be protected...

"So don't the foreign nations in the north have weaknesses?"

"Yes, and there are quite a few. First of all, although the snowy mountains do not sound as bad as deserts, in fact, as long as the deserts control the oasis, it is absolutely a thousand times better than here. But here is different. Almost all tribes, big or small, strong or weak They are all very difficult, and this has also led to fierce conflicts between them, but this time I don’t know why they gathered together. In addition to the most critical issue of'materials', I suspect that someone secretly provided supplies to these medicine people. , But all the avenues are blocked and the trails are under surveillance. It is logically impossible for supplies to be sent to the snow-capped mountains..."

Leva's words also made Lancer's expression serious. He originally thought that the situation here should not be too different from the'desert', but he didn't expect the difference to be that big.

"Have you ever considered a strong attack? Although foreign nations are sturdy, but I remember that there are not many foreign nations in the north? Although it may increase the casualties of our army, such a drag is undoubtedly a chronic death..."

About Ornest’s formation of a “rebel army” in the south, only some places in the south and a few people in the imperial capital know about it. The news about the “rebel army” has been completely blocked, so Lancer did not tell the other party his main The target is in the south.

But just after Lancer asked Najiexitan, he also intervened.

"impossible."

"what happened?"
