Chapter 49: Border Garrison Awaits Orders

  Julia has left, but her crazy behavior in front of the city gate at Bian Guan has been circulating along the entire Bian Guan border, and even General Robert, the commander-in-chief of the Xianghai Pass, hundreds of miles away, has already learned about it.

  "Julia! Ah, a woman's place is not on the battlefield, after the war ends, we should consider her marriage to Rain! Haha!" General Robert smiled from ear to ear, he wasn't angry at Julia's crazy actions, instead he was thinking about her and Rain's future together, it seems he's quite satisfied with Rain.

  The Imperial Army of 50,000 troops set up camp five miles away from the border. For several days, General Robert had been restless, constantly monitoring the military situation at the border and worrying most about the safety of Haiguan Pass.

  Caesar's army has united with the Montdan and Lusitania empires, skilled in naval warfare, as well as the pirate legions of the Strait of Sotri, and the Drun mercenaries, skilled in siege warfare. They have successfully occupied the forward positions of the Sea Valley Pass and are now making preparations for the impending battle.

  The power of the Styr family in the empire is growing, and now the military power of Haigou Pass has also fallen into the hands of Bad. Styr, if it weren't for General Robert's meritorious defense of the border pass, his military power would have been stripped away as well.

  "Somat, Franst, my children, I hope you won't disappoint me!" General Robert gazed in the direction of Haigouguan with infinite emotion.

  At this time, the border town of Haiguo Pass was in a state of crisis, with the vanguard of the Kaisar army gathering at the front lines, the war drums beating and the attack horns blowing.

  People like Laine near the city gate are taking a short rest, and those captured robbers from Luo Fengshan also gathered around Laine.

  "Rhein, thank you, thank you for saving my life on the battlefield!" said Loss. Kane, holding a giant axe, came to Rhein's side with great gratitude, his upper body exposed, his golden hair disheveled, and a few strands stuck to his forehead, without even bothering to tidy it up, his blue eyes fixed intently on Rhein.

  "Haha, Los!" Rayn said with a smile, looking at the giant axe in his hand. The bloodstains on the axe head had dried and turned black, which was why the long handle was silver-white while the axe head was black.

  "Haha, I never thought we'd be fighting side by side with bandits, it's really interesting! Haha..." Rus said bluntly and loudly, then burst out laughing. The nearby soldiers and bandits also followed suit and laughed along.

  On the cruel battlefield, bandits also have blood, facing several times of enemies, they fought bloody battles, and soldiers also admired them.

  The soldiers formed from the slaves and convicts who came from Kastor Empire were expressionless, gazing at the location where Rain and the others were from a distance. Many of the soldiers had envious expressions on their faces.

  At the moment of life and death, they can still laugh, it can be seen that they have long put life and death outside their minds. The entertainment after the war is not a good thing for them?

  The sound of the Caesar army's attack had already been heard, and the battle had begun. However, Lain and his men had not received any orders, so they could only wait here, ready to join the fight at any time.

  After the bloody battle at the border front line, the remaining soldiers were scarce. The more than 2,000 soldiers of Rayn now had less than 100 people left, and the more than 1,000 bandits of Luofeng Mountain also had only over 300 people left. Other imperial capital soldiers also had only over a thousand people left.

  Some soldiers squatted on the ground with their eyes closed, some carefully wiped their guns, some tidied up their equipment, some chatted, and some...

  Dakota's right shoulder was hit by a crossbow bolt, and Rades and Xiao Pang were treating his wound. As thieves, they carried with them some medicine for treating injuries, which was quite effective in dealing with external wounds like arrow wounds.

  "Rades, little fatty, thank you guys. If it weren't for you, my shoulder would be ruined. How could I continue to march and fight? Thank you again!" Dako said with a gentle movement of his injured hand, expressing his deep gratitude.

  "Dakota, don't be so polite, we're all family, hehe! Most of the injuries on Ladd's body were treated by me, this little injury of yours is nothing, just rest for a few days and you'll be fine!" Little fatty chuckled and pointed at Ladd.

  "Hey, fatty! Most of your injuries were treated by me, weren't they?" Lades said with some dissatisfaction, glaring at him.

  "Rades, when did you ever treat me? It was all through my guidance, you were just following along, you..." Little Fatty stood up angrily and retorted.

  "Little fatty, if it weren't for me, where would you get the money to buy medicine? If it weren't for me, you..." Rades also stood up, not to be outdone, and glared at Little Fatty, starting a quarrel.

  "Hold it, hold it! I'm wounded, can you two just let me rest for a bit?! You're both so fierce, why don't you go take care of those injured brothers instead!" Dakota said impatiently, stopping the two from continuing their argument.

  "Hmph!" The two of them glared at Dako Te simultaneously, then quickly left and rushed towards the wounded.

  "These two little rascals! Oh dear! xxx, my shoulder really hurts!" Dakore grimaced, a pained expression falling on his face.

  At this time, Rayn was heading in this direction, where Russ was counting the casualties of the soldiers with a few people, asking from time to time, and every time he took over the waist card symbolizing the soldier's identity, his expression was extremely solemn.

  "Dakota, how's your injury?" Rayn came up to Dakota and asked with concern.

  "Raines, I'm much better now. Who would have thought that these two little guys could treat arrow wounds? Look, my arm can move again, haha! Hsss..." Dakot struggled to get up, but after just a few laughs, the pain in his shoulder suddenly struck him, making him grit his teeth and hiss incessantly.

  "Dakota, don't force yourself, just take a good rest. A hundred days of recuperation is necessary for your injury." Rayn quickly supported him and advised.

  "Hehe, got it!" Dakota laughed.

  "Captain Renn, how does it feel to have a beauty in your arms? Hehe!" Dako suddenly whispered into Renn's ear.

  "Ah, Dakota!" Rayne's expression was somewhat unnatural, and he gave an awkward smile as he looked at Dakota, saying in a reproachful tone.

  "Hehe, never mind. You should go check on the other injured brothers quickly, don't worry about me, I'm fine!" Dako Te pushed away Rain, his left hand supporting his right shoulder, nodding at Rain with a slight smile.

  "Alright! Brother Dakota, get well soon!" Ray said after finishing his sentence and continued to move forward, visiting those injured brothers.

  "Assembly at once!" A sudden shout came, followed by a hurried bugle call.

  "Alas... it's time to start fighting again!" Lain let out a long sigh, then quickly gathered his soldiers and rushed towards the assembly point.
