Chapter [-] The Last Soldier
(The unit is busy today, so the update is late. The second update may be added in the early morning. Friends who are willing to wait, please pay attention. Xiaobu apologizes to the long-awaited book friends!)
At dusk, the city of Patna under the setting sun was immersed in blood.

Patna City is the second largest city in the south of the Fire Cloud Empire after Roland Fortress.Ten years ago, Asman's army invaded the hinterland of the Huoyun Empire from this point, all the way to the Yanyun Province of the Empire.After the war, the Huoyun Empire invested a lot of manpower and material resources to comprehensively upgrade the city defense of Patna City. At the same time, it deployed elite troops to station here to ensure that when the Asman army came, the defenders of Patna City stood by and waited for reinforcements.

Ten years later, when the Asman army attacked, the imperial prince rebelled and was surrounded by 30 Asman troops.The defenders of Patna City fought hard for a month, but they did not wait for the arrival of reinforcements, and once again became an isolated city.

On the top of the city wall and on the walls, there are mottled bloodstains and long bloodstains everywhere, just like a painter using a pen dipped in blood, gently splashing it, and then drawing it down heavily.These colors painted with life, coupled with the city wall riddled with holes, became the best picture scroll to witness the tenacious resistance of Patna's defenders.

This is No. 30 days after the siege of Patna.When dusk came, the Asman army finally stopped attacking.The battlefield fell silent for a moment.

On the city wall, the exhausted soldiers defending the city leaned against the wall softly, or lay directly on the ground, letting their nerves and bodies relax after a day of tension.Many soldiers have wounds on their bodies, but at this moment, fatigue has kept the pain away from their numb bodies.The bodies of the war dead have been taken away, and those who survived by chance are waiting for endless fighting and death.A veteran leaning against the city wall turned his head to look at the Asman army camps in the distance from the arrow stack, his eyes were sad and desperate.

Under the city walls, there were corpses of Asman soldiers everywhere.Some of these people fell from the top of the city, their bodies were smashed to pieces, some were poured with boiling water, and their flesh was torn apart, and some were thrown out of the city by the guards when they climbed to the top of the city.Groups of enemy soldiers are traveling between the battlefield and the wilderness in the distance, carrying these corpses out, and then burning them.Some wounded, supported by their comrades in arms, groaned in pain and left the battlefield slowly.

In the wilderness, the flames soaring into the sky, like the ferocious mouth of the god of death, took away those young lives who were alive and kicking not long ago from the world, leaving only ashes and wisps of smoke.Each of them was once the son of their parents, the husband of their wife, the lover of their girlfriend, and the father of their children. They are the most important people in the eyes of their relatives.But here, they are just a weapon in the hands of General Asman, a wisp of blood splashed from the city of Patna.

General Green stood on the city wall and looked into the distance silently. The sadness of the hero's end filled the heart of this veteran of the empire.

Green was born as a commoner, without any support, and relied entirely on his military exploits to go from soldier to general step by step.During his 30-year military career, he has experienced countless wars and climbed out of the dead again and again. He has long been used to death and bloodshed.In the Battle of Yanyun ten years ago, he followed Yan Tian thousands of miles to defeat the enemy. He was also seriously injured, but he still killed countless enemies with his wounded body.After this battle, he was elected by Xia Tian as the defender of Patna City.

"It seems that it is impossible for the empire to come to rescue us again! General, the subordinates are coming to follow you!" Green looked at the enemy barracks surrounded like iron barrels outside the city, and couldn't help letting out a long sigh.

After the mysterious disappearance of Prince Joseph's army, Patna was besieged by Asman's army that night.From then on, Green knew that something unusual had happened to the Empire.But because he couldn't contact the outside world, he still didn't know that the prince had rebelled, and Xia Tian was resurrected and served as the marshal of the empire.As a veteran, he knew that the battle would be broken sooner or later, so his heart was filled with pain and confusion.The pain is because for soldiers, there is nothing more humiliating than watching the enemy's iron hooves pass over them and trample on the land and people behind them.Confused, because in the history of continental wars, many generals defended the city, forcing the people to the battlefield, and the city fell and was slaughtered by the enemy. He was worried about the residents of Patna City.

"General, there are only 3000 defenders in the city, and 1000 of them are still wounded. The residents in the city have run out of food." Lieutenant General Lester walked to Green's side and reported in a deep voice.

"How much rations are there?"

"The military rations can last for three months."

"Then open a granary and distribute food to the people."

"This..." Lester hesitated.For the defenders of Patna City, these grains will allow them to last longer.Once food is released to the people, it will inevitably affect the time for defending the city.

"Do as I said. We don't have many soldiers anymore, and it's useless to keep them. We have held on to the city of Patna for a month, and I believe we have bought time for the empire to prepare." Green said with a wry smile.

Lester took the lead.

"I am a soldier, and what I protect is the land and the people. Maybe the city will be captured, but the empire will recover it sooner or later. I must keep the city alive." Green sighed.

In the next two days, the Asman army launched a fierce attack on the defenders.Three thousand officers and soldiers defending the city are still fighting on the front line, and casualties continue to increase.On the third day, General Green was hit by a stray arrow and was seriously wounded, and Patna fell.

When the city gate slowly opened, the city that had caused countless Asman soldiers to hate, finally bowed its noble head to the enemy.

When General Langton, the leader of the right army, walked into Patna with a victor's smile and was about to pick the fruits of victory, he was surprised to see: on the street behind the city gate, four soldiers were quietly carrying a stretcher. standing.On the stretcher, a man in neat military uniform was lying face down.On the faces of these soldiers, there was no trace of the frustration and pain of the losers, and everyone looked very calm.

A veteran didn't expect the other three to put down the stretcher, and then walked up to General Langton.

"Your Excellency, General Green left his last words before his death: 'Batna fell, and I will face the sky after I die. You put me on a stretcher and carry me out of the city face down. Vent my corpse, but please don’t hurt the people in the city. War, after all, is a matter for soldiers. The four of us are the general’s personal soldiers and the last soldiers in Patna! After we die, I hope there will be no more people in this city bleed!"

After the soldier finished speaking, he raised his knife and killed himself.The three soldiers standing behind him also raised their swords at the same time and killed themselves.

General Langton watched the scene in front of him, speechless for a long time.

"Pass down my military order not to disturb the common people after entering the city! At the same time, General Green and these four people will be buried in honor!"

In the Battle of Patna City, General Green led 6 defenders. In the case of isolation and helplessness, they defended the city for one month and three days. From the defender General Green, all the defenders died heroically.The Asman army also paid the price of losing [-] people in this battle.However, General Green did not know until his death that the Empire had not given up on them.The Fifth Army of the Roland Fortress sent reinforcements to Patna twice, but they were blocked by the troops of the right army.If General Green organizes the residents to resist desperately, maybe they can wait for reinforcements to arrive.However, for the sake of the lives of the people, he gave up this effort.

Patna fell, and General Green was controversial because he did not organize the people to carry out the final resistance, which also led to a topic that was later hotly discussed: in the face of a powerful enemy, which is more important, protecting the people or defending the land.But the tragic title of "The Last Soldier of Patna" has entered the history books of the Fire Cloud Empire forever.
