Chapter 1367 Two-Person Trip (Part 2)

"Do you know about the war with the Britannia Empire 8 years ago?"

"I don't know the details, I just know that we lost miserably in the war with the Britannia Empire 8 years ago..."

"Yes..."

The bitterness on Roger's face became more intense.

"In the war 8 years ago, we lost so badly..."

"Not only did we lose about 200,000 elite troops."

"We also lost the seven northern provinces, leaving our northern part undefended from then on..."

"But do you know that the reason we lost the war 8 years ago was all because of my stupidity?"

"In other words, it was because of my stupidity that our country was defeated by the Britannia Empire 8 years ago."

"8 years ago, the Britannia Army was divided into three routes to attack our country."

"And we were divided into three armies to fight against the three armies of the Britannia Empire."

"I was ordered to lead the army to fight against the Eastern Route Army of the Britannia Army."

"And the commander of the Eastern Route Army of the Britannia Army at that time...you should know him."

"That's Su Cheng."

"But 8 years ago, Su Cheng was not as famous as he is now."

"At that time, he was in our eyes. He is just a rising star of the Britannia Empire, a talented young man. "

"In the later stage of the war, Lord Bar, Lord Denis and other generals fought a decisive battle with the Central Army and the Western Army of the Britannia Army on the Feihai Plain. "

"And I led the troops to defend Mayin City to prevent Su Cheng from leading the Eastern Army to rush to the Feihai Plain battlefield. "

"At that time, our army had the upper hand on the Feihai Plain battlefield. "

"As long as I can continue to hold back Su Cheng's Eastern Army, it will only be a matter of time for Lord Bar to defeat the Central Army and the Western Army of the Britannia Army..."

"As long as the Central Army and the Western Army of the Britannia Army can be defeated, the Britannia Army will definitely be defeated."

"So-as long as I can hold back Su Cheng and stop Su Cheng's Eastern Army outside Mayin City, our Luolin Empire will win!"

"But... I failed..."

Roche's left hand slowly clenched.

The right hand that was holding the branch and stirring the bonfire also clenched tightly, breaking the branch in its hand.

"I failed to stop Su Cheng's Eastern Army outside Mayin City..."

"I missed a step...I didn't expect that there was a way to cross the mountains next to Mayin City and bypass Mayin City directly..."

"Su Cheng led the Eastern Army to cross the mountains next to Mayin City, bypass Mayin City, and arrived at the Feihai Plain in time."

"Because of Su Cheng's timely reinforcement, the Feihai Plain Battle, which was supposed to be won by our Luolin Empire, was lost..."

"And until the Feihai Plain Battle failed, I didn't know that Su Cheng had led the Eastern Army to the Feihai Plain..."

"I was still there like a fool, complacent, thinking that I had successfully stopped Su Cheng's Eastern Army, and that I would be the hero of this great victory..."

"You should also know what happened afterwards..."

"We were defeated by the Britannian Empire and signed the humiliating Treaty of Troyes with the Britannian Empire."

"Not only did we compensate the Britannian Empire with a large sum of money, but we also took the North All seven provinces were ceded to the Britannia Empire. "

"Until now, the seven northern provinces are still in the hands of the Britannia Empire, causing our country's north to be in an embarrassing situation of being undefended..."

"If I had been more perceptive at the time and noticed the possibility that Su Cheng led his army to cross the mountains and bypass Mayn City, Su Cheng would not have been able to arrive at the Feihai Plain battlefield in time..."

"If Su Cheng had not arrived at the Feihai Plain battlefield in time,

then we would not have lost the war 8 years ago."

"If we had not lost the war 8 years ago, we would not have fallen into the embarrassing situation of the seven northern provinces being ceded to the Britannia Empire and the north of the empire being undefended."

"If the north of the empire was not undefended, your northern border army might not have been beaten so badly by the Britannia army this time..."

"So-from this perspective, I am the sinner who indirectly caused the annihilation of your northern border army and the fall of all the territory north of Orleans..."

"Cowardly..."

Roche pulled the weeds at his feet.

There was a faint cry in his voice.

"I am such a coward..."

"I am a soldier who failed more than anyone else."

"What qualifications do I have to criticize you..."

......

......

Ballister didn't know what to say to comfort Roger.

After hesitating and thinking for a long time, he whispered:

"You don't have to blame yourself too much..."

"I think the reason why this country is facing such a predicament is mainly related to the incompetence of the superiors."

"The people who should feel guilty and ashamed for the current predicament of the empire should be those superiors, not you..."

......

......

After another long silence, Roger raised his hand and wiped his eyes twice.

"......Okay, we've had dinner, so let's stop here for the chat."

Roche lay on his side on the ground next to him, and took a thick dead wood next to him to use as a pillow.

"It's time to rest and sleep. We have to travel tomorrow."

"Travel?"

It was only at this moment that Barrister realized that he didn't seem to know why this officer named Roger was unconscious on the roadside during the day, and what he was doing here.

"Sir, where are you going?"

"To Tully."

"Tully? What are you going to Tully for?"

"I'm going to Tully to tell the superiors of Tully that Orleans is still holding out and ask for reinforcements."

"Orleans?" Barrister exclaimed, "Is Orleans still holding out now?!"

"Yes." Roger nodded vigorously, "I just ran away from Orleans."

"With 200 cavalrymen, after a night of bloody battle, I finally broke out of the siege of the Britannian army."

"But my 200 men were almost wiped out."

"I don't know where the surviving men are."

"My horse was also injured. I was seriously injured and almost exhausted myself."

"When the sun just rose from the horizon, my horse could no longer move and fell to the side of the road."

"I fell off the horse and fell into a coma."

"You should know what happened next."

"When I was unconscious, I suddenly felt someone groping me."

"When I opened my eyes, I saw you pickpocketing me."

"Now it seems that I am lucky."

"I survived the heavy encirclement of the Britannian army."

"Although all my men are gone, I am the only one left."

Roche said in a decisive tone.

"But I will definitely complete my mission and bring the news that Orleans is still holding on to Tuli!"
