Trinville rushed into the pirate group, and he saw Grayn in the siege at a glance. The armor and robes Gray wore had long been soaked in blood, but he was still like a tireless tiger, leading the soldiers of the First Squadron to fight bravely and annihilate the stubborn enemy.
In ecstasy, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Grain, I'm back."
Glenn laughed loudly. He waved his sword to drive away the pirates in front of him. He galloped to Trinvil Horse and laughed loudly with joy: "You came just in time. There are too many pirates waiting for you here." Teach them a lesson."
Trinville also laughed and said, "I know! So, here I come!"
They joined forces and attacked bravely. As Trinville and Bellinger arrived one after another to join the beach battle, although the Guards were still at a disadvantage compared to the pirates in terms of numbers, the situation on the battlefield instantly changed. The pirates already had no fighting spirit, and they were even more unable to resist when they were attacked by the Knights of the Storm.
Glenn reined in his horse and searched everywhere for traces of Babaya. He shouted: "Trinville, come with me to catch Babaya!"
When Trinville saw the pirates fleeing in all directions, he excitedly chased after them. He was so excited to kill that he didn't even hear Glenn's voice for a moment.
Grain caught up with Trinville and yelled, "Trinville, Trinville."
Trinville stopped his horse and laughed loudly: "Grain, come and catch more pirates with me. I have to make more contributions. Maybe after this battle, I can be a captain or something."
Glenn was angry and amused. He said, "Babaya is running away, and you are just fighting with these little minions. Come with me - let's catch Babaya!"
Trinville woke up from a dream. He wanted to stamp his feet to show his remorse, but then he realized that he was still riding a horse. So he grinned and widened his eyes. "Alas, why didn't you remind me earlier? Tell me, where is Babaya? Who is the pirate leader Babaya!"
The spear in Trinville's hand was like a nightmare hanging over the pirates. He charged forward, invincible to all pirates who stood in his way.
He held a spear in both hands and rode forward, shouting loudly: "Anyone who dares to stand between me and Babaya will die!" Before he finished speaking, he shook the spear in his hand and knocked over several people who were blocking his horse. pirate. When the remaining pirates saw Trinville's angry brows and murderous intent, they all turned around and fled, screaming.
As he charged on horseback, he shouted: "Babaya, stop obediently. The big man Vika from the 1st Squadron of the Guards is here, how dare you run away!"
The soldiers of the First Squadron following him heard his joking, and even though they were still on the battlefield of a life-and-death struggle, the pirates' resistance was stronger than before. However, none of them even blamed or laughed at Trinville.
They all laughed!
They followed Trinville at a gallop, shouting together: "Babaya, stop for us! The big man Vika from the 1st Squadron of the Guards is here, so don't run away!"
On the bloody and cruel battlefield, such a strange scene unexpectedly appeared. The Guards cavalry laughed loudly after hearing this, and they were all very lively. The pirates were deeply shocked when they heard this, and their fighting spirit almost collapsed.
Babaya had been killed so much that he was dizzy. He had traveled across the ocean continent for decades, and he had never suffered such a shame and humiliation. However, he no longer had the courage to turn around and fight for his honor. He didn't dare to stop escaping, and he had no time to think - even if he could escape alive, how could he carry the reputation of a coward and then claim to be the greatest pirate king?
He doesn't care at all! As long as he could escape the cavalry that would never give up until he was killed, and as long as he could escape the "Big Vika" who was killing his men crazily while shouting his name, he didn't care. However, there were cavalrymen everywhere with prancing horses and wielding spears. He was rushing around in vain like a poisonous snake with his eyes gouged out, his head was bleeding and his breath was dying.
The fighting became more intense. The pirates sent by Babaya to other locations finally arrived for reinforcements after receiving the news that their leader was trapped. The narrow beach battlefield was suddenly flooded with a new force of thousands of pirates. Facing the powerful attack of the Guards, they still rushed to the outer front of the Guards regardless of casualties, trying to tear a hole from there and kill Baba. Asia was rescued from the siege of the Guards. The besieged pirates were already struggling to their death and were about to be destroyed. The arrival of reinforcements gave them a glimmer of hope for survival. The pirates mustered up their last courage and launched a desperate counterattack.
However, the pirates forgot that they were facing the Guards.
In the history of the Guards, only pirates were the ones they most expected to fight and eliminate. Not because of how powerful the pirates are, but because of their despicableness. The pirates never dared to fight the Guards, they just ran away. Even so, whenever Apodoli's people talk about pirates, the guards, from the legion commander to every ordinary soldier, all look ashamed.
After all, they hadn't really defeated the pirates in decades.
Now, Babaya, the most vicious of the pirates, has no way to escape. All the Guards soldiers were fighting desperately, thinking in their hearts, whoever could catch Babaya or take off his head would be a great feat and achievement. When they thought of this, their blood couldn't stop surging in their chests, and their horses rushed forward like a flood of beasts.
The main force of the Storm Knights led by Captain Philo arrived in time. He calmly judged the situation on the battlefield and decisively issued the order: "Nowak, Doyle, lead your cavalry to block the pirate reinforcements on that beach. A pirate approached Babaya. From then on, he Don’t boast about your bravery in front of me.”
Novak and Doyle both held their spears and nodded: "Yes, Captain Philo. Leave it to us!"
Philo waved his hand, and the two cavalrymen rushed toward the beach like lightning. He also ordered: "Scotta, Mullin, Springer, Lanster, I will attack Babaya's camp."
Scotta asked in confusion: "Captain Philo, don't we have to help Grein? They are in a tight siege and are still chasing Babaya."
Philo faced the sun and drew his sword. "Didn't you hear the laughter of the First Squadron? There is nothing to worry about! Just let the First Squadron do what they want to do. We, just launch the attack."
All the Knights of the Storm went into battle. Bellinger and Doyle led a thousand cavalry on the long coast. With a counterattack, they easily repelled the crazy counterattack of pirates several times their size. The two cavalry brigades were like two hard hammers, crushing any idea of the pirates rescuing Babaya.
Relying on their heavy armor and spears, the Guards charged and pursued recklessly. The pirates had a numerical advantage, but under the impact of the heavy armored cavalry, their formation was shattered and unable to cause effective damage to the Guards. They watched Babaya very close to him and listened to the pirate leader's wailing, but they could not get beyond that step no matter what.
Facing the continuous attacks of the cavalry, the pirates' last stubborn resistance began to waver. Finally, the pirates let out miserable cries of death, and more people even turned around and fled.
But the Guards saw through their intentions. Bellinger and Doyle switched to the attack in time, immediately broke through the pirates' defense line, and engaged in a melee with the enemy.
On the other side, the team led by Captain Philo himself also smashed Babaya's defense line. Although the heavy armored cavalry of the Guards could not attack as fast as the light cavalry, their unstoppable and overwhelming majesty directly shattered any enemy's illusions of daring to resist. The iron coats of the cavalry and war horses made a thunderous roar, drowning out the wailing and screaming of the enemy.
Heavy armor and spears allow the Guards to ignore the damage of dismounted short-bladed pirates. They just need to charge! charge! charge!
Like sharp knives, the cavalry rushed into the pirate group from the north and south, and then repeatedly attacked, dividing the pirates into countless fragmented groups that could not support each other, and became a mess. The Guards were like an unstoppable torrent, and their galloping horse hooves trampled the pirates who were facing disaster. They just waited until the pirates completely lost the will to fight and stretched out their necks numbly to wait for death.
In fact, the Guards did not need to use swords at all. Their galloping power had already shocked the enemy's courage.
Although Glenn and his No. 1 Squadron heard cheers like a roaring mountain and a tsunami, they had no time to pay attention to what was happening around them. They just found that there were fewer and fewer pirates around them.
Trinville, like all the soldiers, had already regarded Babaya as their prize.
Babaya is his, no one can dream of taking it from him!
However, no one could guess that he was just doing it for his friends. He will sweep away all the pirates who dare to block his way forward, just so that his friends can catch the pirate Babaya with his own hands!
However, he would never have imagined that all the soldiers in the First Squadron thought like this.
The main force of the legion led by Prince Charles has also arrived. The situation of the battle has long been clear. Under the leadership of the Blue Eagle Flag, the Guards Cavalry rushed into the pirate group like a tide, accelerating the collapse of the pirates.
The war horses raised their heads and neighed, colliding and trampling. The pirates were crying like ghosts and howling like wolves, and corpses were everywhere.
Victory is beyond doubt, and the destruction of the "Black Shark" pirate group is right before our eyes!
Grein and his squadron achieved unparalleled military exploits. They took advantage of the enemy's opportunity, burned the enemy's ships, fought hard among the pirates, held Babaya firmly on the beach, and finally waited for the arrival of the army.
But they also paid a heavy price. Nearly a hundred young warriors died on the battlefield, and Esko and Dano also fell on the road to charge.
However, the First Squadron has climbed to a peak that even the seniors of the Guards could not reach. After a night of life and death fighting, they were all exhausted. They are fully qualified to withdraw from the battle, and will also receive the most unstinting praise from the Apodoli people.
However, as long as they follow Grein, they will continue to fight. The battle started because of them, and everyone was imagining the perfect ending.
That is - their captain, Glenn, personally captured the "Pirate King" Babaya and chopped off his head!
They all selflessly hope that Grain will achieve great things. For this reason, they have no regard for their precious lives.
They followed Grain to his left and right, using their spears to clear the way for him to rush towards Babaya. The leader of the pirates was overcome with despair and knew he was doomed. He wielded a long scimitar and charged towards the big man Vika's horse.
Trinville dismounted and swept his spear across. Babaya's scimitar flew away with a whoosh. Then the spear swept off the hat on Babaya's head. He screamed strangely and ran away with his hair disheveled.
Trinville did not pursue him. He put his spear across his shoulder and laughed loudly at Glenn: "Captain Glenn, what are you waiting for!"
The soldiers of the First Squadron rushed over and blocked Babaya's escape. They shouted in unison: "Captain Grayne, catch him! Catch the pirate Babaya!"
The blood surged in Glenn's chest. For the sake of his friends and the soldiers who followed him through life and death, he shouted loudly, and before he finished speaking, he rode after Babaya. He raised a sword and hit the pirate's left leg.
Babaya screamed and fell to the ground, screaming and unable to move anymore.
Grayn jumped off his horse and walked over to Babaya. He sneered and trampled the pirate king under his feet, raising the sword in his hand high against the blood-red sun. Trinville and the soldiers cheered.
The greatest moment of glory will forever belong to Glenn and his No. 1 Squadron!
Suddenly, a loud arrow roared towards him, and Babaya's already decadent and weak body was unable to dodge. He only let out a muffled grunt, and an arrow hit his throat, killing him immediately.
It happened suddenly, and everyone who saw it was stunned. What was happening before their eyes?
This is naked robbery!
This is the most chilling indifference to the sacrifices made by the First Squadron!
They yelled angrily: "Who? Who did this?"
Trinville was going crazy with rage!
Anyone can see that the notorious public enemy of the mainland and the giant pirate, "Black Shark" Babaya has been knocked to the ground by Gray En. It would be easier to cut off his head than to accept the wine glass he was willing to offer. There are so many!
However, the glory Trinville and the 1st Squadron had pinned on Grayne was cruelly deprived of it by a cold arrow in an instant.
Trinville looked around, and with his blood-red eyes he shouted loudly: "Who, who is it?"
The First Squadron was silent. At the end of the beach battle, he was the only one who let out the most tragic and loud roar.
Glenn sighed when he heard the sound of horse hooves.
A group of war horses rushed forward, and the one accompanying them was none other than Prince Mars, the supreme commander of the Guards Corps. He wears an iron helmet, heavy armor, and a snow-white battle robe, with a powerful white horse at his crotch. He held a bent bow and looked coldly at the bewildered soldiers.
The soldiers lowered their heads. Only Trinville still stared at him angrily. Prince Mars obviously saw Trinville's angry look, but he didn't pay attention at all.
He looked at Grein and said: "Captain Grein, I have learned about the deeds of the First Squadron from Captain Philo. You did a very good job."
After speaking, he nodded. His attendant jumped off the horse, swung his sword and cut off Babaya's head, hung it on the horse, and followed him away.
With the death of "Black Shark" Babaya, it also heralded the demise of the largest pirate group among the pirates that plagued the mainland. Only a handful of pirates escaped on unburned ships. More than 4,000 pirates were killed on the beach by the Guards, and a similar number of pirates laid down their weapons and became prisoners. The Guards achieved a brilliant victory.
Wherever the First Squadron went, the Guards stopped to pay tribute to them and cleared the way to the royal city. The soldiers silently followed the first squadron, serving as the most devoted guards for the heroes of the Guards.
No one bothered them, no one comforted them. Even, no one went to express the most heartfelt congratulations for their bravery. They could see the squadron that had fought hard to the end, just moving forward silently.
In their hearts, they mourned the loss of their most heroic comrades in the battle. I was filled with emotion that I could escape death, and I was filled with tears for triumphing in the light of glory.
Only Trinville was still angry. While riding on the horse, he couldn't help but said: "Grain, in the opinion of me and the brothers in the First Squadron, you are the only one who truly deserves the reputation of 'Hand Blade Babaya'."
Glenn has calmed down a lot. Sacrifice is the purest and most tragic contribution of every soldier who steps onto the battlefield. Merit, the oath and medal to fight for the country, and bravery worthy of one's heart—none of these are what he wants. However, he understood where his friend's anger came from. He can ignore everything, but he must comfort his good friends.
He smiled lightly and said: "Trinville, my friend. That is not important. We are all alive and the pirates have been eliminated. Isn't this enough? Glory comes from the heart of a person, as long as you have qualities that make you proud. , you don’t have to care too much about what you look like in other people’s eyes.”
Although Trinville agreed, he still couldn't let it go. He looked around and lowered his voice and said: "But I really can't figure out why this prince would do this? Why does he not care about other people's feelings and want to compete for credit with a squadron leader? Is it possible for him to do this? Is there any other point in doing it? He is the prince of Apodoli! I believe that people who have the same idea as me are not just our first squadron. Today, all the soldiers and generals on the battlefield have seen That scene.”
Glenn knew that his friend was a magnanimous and open-minded man. He is only upset because he feels his friend has been treated unfairly. Although Glenn was indifferent to fame and fortune, deep down he was not indifferent at first. However, he knew that he should try his best to maintain the image and status of the commander of the Charles Corps in the hearts of the Guards soldiers and friends.
He put on a relaxed look, smiled and said to his friend: "Okay, don't say any more. But," he looked back at the mighty victorious army, everyone was high-spirited, and the joy of victory was on every young face. Overflowing. "After all, Trinville, we can win this time thanks to you."
Trinville has always had a habit of bragging in front of good friends. Of course, friends all know that this is just a way for Trinville to enhance the atmosphere and please his friends. However, when Glenn attributed the Guards' unprecedented victory to him, he still couldn't help but blush.
For a moment, even his voice became distorted when he spoke. He said: "Grain, when you were fighting bloody battles with the pirates, I was getting farther and farther away from you and the battlefield. I still want to tell you now, even though you said so much, I am only out of love for you. and respect you. Now, I swear - from now on, no matter how many reasons you have, you will never want me to leave you. Even if I may violate your order, I will never allow it to happen again. Something like this happened today.”
Grain was deeply moved by hearing Trinville's heartfelt words. He had heard his friends' passionate expressions of loyalty more than once. Hearing them again after experiencing life and death had a special taste in his heart.
He accepted the loyalty and friendship of his friends with a smile that was equally moved and enthusiastic. However, he still smiled and said: "Do you think I am just complimenting you? No! Trinville. I have always believed that we will live and die together on the battlefield and never leave. I will never do it because you are my good friend. , I will leave you the hope of life. In my heart, the life of every soldier is the most precious.
Like I said before. Now, I say it again—I did it because I believed that only you, my friend, only you could do it. That's why I chose you to complete a task more difficult than fighting pirates face to face. And you lived up to expectations, broke through the pirates' obstruction, and brought the news to Captain Philo. Only then could the reinforcements arrive in time and eliminate Babaya, the most rampant pirate on the mainland. For this reason, I also sincerely say to you - thank you, Trinville. "
Trinville grinned and said with a smile: "Why do you want to say thank you? We are friends to begin with. Besides, isn't it the duty of the Guards to eliminate pirates?"
Glenn smiled slightly: "Trinville, I am not saying polite words to you. I say 'thank you' because you brought back reinforcements and saved my life and the lives of other brothers in the First Squadron. But, I don’t understand a little bit.” He looked at Trinville,
"I have to be honest with you, my friend. In order to complete the interception of Babaya, I have prepared for the worst. So, you can imagine the joy in my heart to survive this battle. . So, you can see, we can't express our gratitude enough. There's just one thing that confuses me."
"What confuses you, Glenn?"
"According to the orders I received, the Guards Corps and our Knights were supposed to arrive at the new garrison two days after the departure of the First Squadron. Moreover, they would stay there for one night. So, even if you can go all the way unimpeded To bring the news back to the legion, the main force of the Guards rushed non-stop through the night. I expected that the reinforcements would arrive in a full day and a half at the earliest. But why did you arrive after only half a day? How did you do it? Woolen cloth?"
Trinville couldn't help laughing after hearing his words. Seeing the smile on his friend's face, he explained with joy: "Speaking of which, thanking me alone is not enough. On the way here, Captain Philo already told me. The original plan of the regiment commander That's true, but he changed his mind the next day. Because our Captain Philo - in the words of a veteran of the Knights, he is the most cunning old fox on the battlefield. After repeated consideration, he always felt that only nine soldiers should be sent. The squadron was too risky. Contempt for the enemy should never be staked with the lives of soldiers.
He promptly and appropriately put forward his suggestions to our regiment commander. His Royal Highness also respects Captain Philo. So, he finally agreed to his suggestion. In this way, our knights set out ahead of schedule as the vanguard. The main force of the legion also followed. Of course, if we hadn't brought the information back, the Knights of the Storm would have been planning to camp where I met them. That would be really bad. "
Glenn also said happily: "Fortunately, we all saved our lives."
They all laughed. This is the most genuine and touching laughter that can come from people who have experienced life and death.
