(The unit temporarily arranges a business trip for one day, and I will rush to draft it as soon as I come back. I hope this chapter will not disappoint everyone.)
It was a restless night.The din of war did not die away with the coming of night.The rebel attack on Bethleigh continued.When the people in the city fell into a deep dream with panic and numbness, the soldiers guarding the city wall were still fighting fiercely with the rebels, struggling to repel waves of enemy attacks and guarding the devastated city .

Regardless of whether it is a veteran or a new soldier, under the powerful magic attack of the enemy, they still desperately stick to their positions, fighting desperately with the rebels who climbed the city wall.Everyone knew in their hearts that Bethleigh City was the last barrier of the imperial capital, and they could not retreat. Before the last drop of blood from the imperial soldiers was shed, the rebels must not be allowed to break through this line of defense.

While the fierce battle was going on, inside a military camp in the north of the city, it was exceptionally calm.A middle-aged officer of the First Army and First Division of the First Imperial Army Corps was staying in the tent, staring at the gleaming dagger in his hand.After a long time, he inserted the dagger into the sheath and put it in a small bundle in front of him.In this bag are his belongings and a letter.

"Son, you are five years old this year. From the time you were born to the present, the time that Dad has been with you has been less than half a year. From now on, Dad may never see you again. This started when I became a soldier." The dagger that has been with me all the time, it is the last memorial left to you by father!"

The officer sighed softly. After putting the dagger away, he picked up a letter to his wife in the bundle, opened it and read it carefully. say goodbye.

"Honey, you once said that from the day you married me, you were ready to be a widow. You may not know, but all these years, your words have encouraged me, because you are waiting for me, I only once Struggling again and again, I survived the battlefield. Maybe tonight, the miracle will not happen again, and you must take care of yourself in the future!"

"Teacher..." A deep voice came from outside the door.

"Come in!" As soon as the middle-aged officer heard the voice, he knew it was his deputy.

A slightly younger officer pushed open the door, walked in with a sad expression, and his eyes fell on the bag.

"Wright, have all the people I want gathered?" the middle-aged officer asked, looking up.

"All assembled!" Wright nodded heavily.

"You came just in time. After the war, you will hand over these things to your sister-in-law." The middle-aged officer sealed the envelope, put it in his bag, and said to him.

"Hadi, why don't you let me go! Your child is still young, and my sister-in-law is still waiting for you to go back! Could it be that in your eyes, I am really such a useless person?" Wright said excitedly with blue veins on his forehead, Tears flashed in his eyes.

"Don't fucking cry like a woman in front of me! After I leave, you will be the acting division commander. If you bring this division to me, I will be at ease!" The middle-aged officer looked at him and said with a hearty smile, " I won't let you go because I left a seed after all, and your sister-in-law still has a hope. If you work harder, you bastard, I will really give you this honor! I will have to work more overtime when I go home. !"

Not long ago, the first division received an order from Xia Tian to select [-] elites, mainly officers, to participate in a major operation.And those who participate in this operation must be prepared to sacrifice.Xia Tian also mentioned in the order that only one officer of the First Army and First Army will be left to command the troops, and the rest will participate in this operation.The reason for this is that although the first army suffered heavy casualties, its officers were stronger, and the officers of the first army were all quite strong in combat effectiveness.

"Hadi..." Hearing this, the young officer couldn't bear it any longer, and burst into tears.He and Hardy joined the army in the same year, have been together these years, and have formed a strong friendship with each other.After the war broke out in the north, the first army was defeated under the powerful magic attack of the rebels.This is a great shame to the ace troops of the empire, so after receiving Yan Tian's order, the officers and soldiers of the first division all asked for orders to participate in this operation and avenge their troops.Wright, as the deputy division commander, also competed with Hardy for the opportunity to participate in this mission.But in the end, he was suppressed by Hardy as a teacher.

"You are not as good as me when you have a son! My son is five years old, and your wife has not moved at all. You are not as good as me when you are a soldier! We are soldiers and officers together, and you are always my subordinate. Why are you Rob me?"

As Hardy said, he stepped forward and hugged Wright tightly. He was very clear about Wright's intentions.Because of this, at this critical moment of life and death, he resolutely decided to leave the chance of life to his brother.

"Brother, I'm leaving. If I can't come back, your sister-in-law and nephew, please take care of them!"

"How dare you not come back, you bastard, I'll sell your son!"

Wright broke free from Hardy's arms, punched him twice in the chest, and roared angrily.

"Haha! I'm relieved!" Hardy laughed, grabbed the long sword on the table, turned around and strode out of the tent.

In the camp of the first division, [-] officers and soldiers had assembled, and among these people, officers accounted for nearly half.Looking at his murderous subordinates, Hardy nodded in satisfaction.

"Ready, my soldiers?"

"Okay!" 500 people roared in unison.

"The suicide note, the family letter, have you left them?"

"left behind!"

"There is nothing to worry about, then we will fight the rebels vigorously, and use the blood of the rebels to wash away the shame we have suffered! Let's go!" Hadi waved his hand vigorously, leading [-] officers and soldiers, and designated Xia Tian set off from the collection point.

This night, the same scene was being played out in various barracks in Bethleigh.Five thousand officers and soldiers, from their respective troops, quickly gathered in the central square of Burleigh City.

Marshal Yan Tian was already dressed in military uniform, standing in the square with a dignified expression, waiting for the arrival of this army.Forced by the situation, he made a risky decision to launch a surprise attack on the rebels.And this attack will be initiated by him himself.

After the 5000 people gathered, Yan Tian nodded to the advisers around him.

Wine glasses were issued to the officers and soldiers, and the blood-red wine quickly filled the glasses.

Xia Tian picked up the wine glass and came to the front of the 5000 people.

"Everyone, please raise your glass!"

The officers and soldiers raised their wine glasses in unison.

"The wine in the cup is called the general's tears. The general sheds tears only for his loyal and brave soldiers! Not long ago, in the camp of the rebels, a thousand soldiers of the empire who cherished the motherland and were unwilling to be rebels, faced the rebels. Before the siege of Bethleigh, there was a sudden uprising, setting fire to the siege equipment and food and grass of the rebels, and then a bloody battle with the rebels, all sacrificed heroically! To this day, I don’t know the names of any of the soldiers, I only know them Everyone's naked upper body has four blood-red characters "a good soldier" written on it! These thousand good soldiers made me shed tears for the first time in my life, and I vowed to avenge them! This bloody red cup Wine is the blood of the rebels and our hatred! Tonight, let us drink up this glass of wine, pay tribute to the thousand good soldiers who died in battle, and do it for us!"

After finishing speaking, Xia Tian raised his head and drank the wine in the glass.Five thousand officers and soldiers raised their glasses at the same time and drank the wine in one gulp.

"Soldiers, behind Bethleigh is our capital, Yuncheng. The advance of the rebel army must be stopped in Bethleigh! For this reason, I have decided to personally lead you to carry out tonight's operation. Among you, some are imperial Officers and soldiers of the First Legion, you have to prove that the First Legion is still a well-deserved trump card of the empire! Some of you are the cavalry who followed me in the battle of Yanyun in the past, you have to prove that you still have the courage to ride a thousand troops! Among you, There are also elites selected from various units. You have to prove that the heroes who dare to die in the imperial army are by no means just the thousand soldiers! I want to tell everyone that this operation is life or death for you. In the face of death, my soldiers, tell me will you choose to advance, or to retreat?"

"Go ahead!" Everyone responded in unison.For the sake of the country and the honor of the soldiers, 5000 people chose to kiss death without hesitation.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Yan Tian looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, dropped the wine glass heavily on the ground, and got on his horse.

The officers and soldiers also smashed their wine glasses, turned over and jumped on their horses, following Xia Tian.Tonight, they will turn into bayonets in the hands of the Marshal of the Empire, stabbing fiercely at the rebels with a ferocious and icy edge.

After this battle, Hardy never came back.

After the war, Wright returned to his hometown, and handed over the letters and items he left behind to his wife according to Hardy's request.Hardy's wife died of depression after learning of his death, leaving behind a young son.Under the careful training of the Wright couple, the child finally became an officer of the empire.Hardy did not expect that Wright, who he once told him to work overtime to give birth to a son, in order to fulfill his promise to him and to cultivate his son carefully, he and his wife never had a child in their life, and devoted all their affection to on that young child.

Also after this war, hundreds of young girls in the empire received letters from boyfriends in the army.Some said they fell in love with others, some said they changed their minds after being promoted, and some said they were suddenly tired of feelings.All kinds of reasons for breaking up broke the hearts of these girls who were waiting for their lovers to return.Some of them even ran to the army where their lover was, wanting to see the cruel heartless people with their own eyes, but they were all rejected coldly.These girls finally put away their sorrows, started a new life, and built their own happy families.

A few years later, a woman named Martha who married to Bethleigh accidentally discovered the name of her former lover when she took her children to visit the martyr's cemetery in Bethleigh.

When she saw the words engraved on the tombstone, she cried and fell down in front of the tomb.

"My dear Martha, I can never go back to you. For the sake of the country and to end the war, I smiled and kissed the god of death! May that unfeeling letter end your longing and waiting, only let you Only by hating me can you quickly forget me and start a new life. Being cruel to you is the last time I love you in this life, and I will watch over your happiness in heaven!"
