Chapter 1565 199. Young warriors are eager to gain merit

The Hellfire Legion wiped out a small wave of rats with zero casualties.

The Imperial Guards were also able to wipe out the rat tide with zero casualties.

Rounding off, the Hellfire Legion is equal to the Imperial Guard.

Confidence is accumulated in battle after battle. For example, right now, Annan is no longer afraid of war, but instead hopes to get some more ratmen for the Hellfire Legion to continue training.

The task of cleaning up the battlefield and preventing the spread of the plague was handed over to the Principality, and the Hellfire Legion returned victorious.

After the celebration party that made Fermi and Jack jealous, Annan and his eldest sister, Olmedo, sat in the lounge and listened to Fermi and Kilian talk about the process.

"So, if there are more ratmen, you will be forced into close combat, which you are not good at?"

Kirlian said, "As the number of ratmen increases, we can change our tactics. But you are right. The rat tide is like a wave. We can either stop it or it will collapse."

Annan thought thoughtfully: "There is another option, guerrilla warfare."

Elves are masters of guerrilla warfare. They can use terrain and guerrilla tactics to easily fool enemies that are several times their size.

The Hellfire Legion did not take this route in the past because they did not have the ability to engage in guerrilla warfare - the elves could move through the forest as easily as if it were flat ground, and a group of armored soldiers could not outrun a tide of rats.

But Fermi was unwilling to do so.

The current Hellfire Legion refuses because they have embarked on their own path.

Heavy armored infantry - this was the choice made jointly by Fermi and Kirlian.

Liberty City needs a shield, a solid shield that can withstand the enemy on the front battlefield.

"makes sense……"

Annan also felt that it was a bit of a waste of time to ask the Hellfire Legion to throw away their plate armor and wear leather armor, so he called for Legion Commander Losey and Jack.

"Luo Xi, the Guards Corps will be expanded to 5000 people starting tomorrow and will take over the mission of the Musketeers Corps."

Annan's eyes fell on Jack again, and he stood up straight suddenly.

"Jack, it's your turn."

The Musketeers were originally established with the concept of "guerrilla warfare". However, as the business street became bigger and bigger, they were transferred there first, and now they are returning to their original duties.

The calm Fermi accepted Annan's orders, but Losi could not sit still, feeling that he was the only one who was excluded from the three legions.

"Lord Annan—"

As soon as Luo Xi opened his mouth, he was stared at by two colleagues with oppressive eyes.

Fermi could not tolerate any behavior that disobeyed Annan, while Jack simply did not want to have his opportunity taken away from him.

"I...I will definitely complete the task you assigned me."

In the end, Luo Xi didn't dare to tell the truth.

"Very good, Jack..."

"Make sure to complete the mission!" Jack roared.

"Olmedo, you tell Captain Jack what to do."

"it is good."

"Femi, Luo Xi, you go back first."

Luo Xi's eyes turned red instantly, he clenched his fists, and left the lounge, looking back every few steps.

Annan and Olmedo took Jack, who walked briskly, to the strategy room and explained the current situation to him.

That small wave of rats was completely wiped out by the Hellfire Legion, but there are still a large number of sparse, scattered ratmen in the north.

The Musketeer Corps' target is them. They should seize the time to practice before the rat tide gathers and weaken them at the same time.

"Unlike the Hellfire Legion, you have to go deep into the wild and clear out the ratmen you see. The blue dragons will follow you, but they will not attack unless you encounter a large-scale rat tide that you cannot resist."

Since the Hellfire Legion wants to become the Shield of Liberty City, Olmedo plans to train the Musketeer Legion into the Bow of Liberty City.

Annan noticed it and said at the right time: "If you do well, I can give you a new name for the Third Legion."

"New name?" Jack was slightly startled with a look of surprise on his face.

"Don't you think the name 'Musketeer Corps' is too plain and lacks characteristics?" Annan smiled. "How about the name 'Ranger Corps'?"

"Thank you, Lord Annan, for the name!" Jack knelt on one knee. "Don't worry, you have to perform well enough to be eligible for a new name."

"The Third Legion will not let you down!"

Jack left in high spirits, eager to tell his soldiers the good news.

The young warriors were eager to gain honor.

"Ranger... have you thought about this a long time ago?"

"Yeah, I was originally planning to give it to the Sixth Legion, but now it seems that Jack and his team are more suitable."

"Do you have a suitable candidate?"

Annan pointed in the direction of the embassy and said, "For something this big, the church must take action."

"Didn't they promise to help us defend?"

"It's different, Olmedo, it's different." Annan shook his head. "They helped me, but after joining the legion, they have to take my last name An... No, it's Reeves."

"Then just go ahead and do it."

"Don't worry, I'm waiting for the other three churches to make a move."

The Church of Order has already shown goodwill through Colette, but the Church of Doom and the Church of the Spider Queen have not made any moves yet...

……

The musketeers who returned from various commercial streets last night gathered at the camp playground after a night's rest.

There were many residents whispering on the road.

"How do you change people?"

"They have thin arms and legs, and they don't even have armor. How can they fight the ratmen?"

"It must be too easy for the Hellfire Rat Hunter..."

Jack didn't feel embarrassed when he heard this, but rather felt very proud.

You, the Hellfire Legion, relied on Annan's favor, and all the good things were used on you first, but in the end, we snatched away the opportunity to clean out the ratmen, didn't you?
As soon as Jack got back to the camp, he shouted angrily, "Did you hear that?"

"The residents only believe in Hellfire and not us. Are you willing to accept this?"

"Not reconciled!"

"louder please!"

“I’m not willing to accept this!!!”

"Very good, very energetic."

Jack said with satisfaction: "Tell them who is Liberty City——"

The figure that appeared at the edge of his sight suddenly made Jack freeze.

"Who is what?" Kylian took off his plate armor and changed into the same leather armor as the Musketeers, and asked him.

"How did you come?"

"Lord Annan said that your musketeer corps has fought too few battles with the ratmen, so he asked me to assist you."

Kylian glanced at the soldiers and said, "Not only me, but the elves in the mountains will also teach you how to engage in guerrilla warfare."

"Elves?" Jack lowered his voice: "Aren't they..."

"The elves of the forest and mountains don't know yet."

"understood……"

In front of the deputy commander of the Hellfire Legion, Jack was naturally embarrassed to say anything belittling to the other party, and he said some words to boost morale. Annan arrived.

Annan came to Jack's side amidst the excited gazes, and his voice, amplified by the loudspeaker, rang out over the military camp.

"Rat infestation must be eradicated at all times. It is not possible without eradication!"

"Just imagine, you were farming and singing in your territory, and suddenly it was destroyed by ratmen."

“So, the days without rat infestation are good days!”
