Chapter 311 Decisive Battle—Western Battlefield! (Superior)

July 26, 290 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire.

8:25 am.

Southern front line, Eastern Route Army position.

Su Cheng was sitting on a large smooth stone, drinking freshly brewed black tea and eating simple dry food for breakfast.

Su Cheng simply enjoyed breakfast while waiting for his subordinates to bury the corpses of enemy and own soldiers and count the casualties.

After a night of fierce fighting, it was not until the sun rose the next day that the battle of annihilation, in which nearly 40,000 enemies were wiped out, finally came to an end.

After the battle was over, Sioux City immediately ordered to bury all the corpses, whether they were the corpses of the Luo Lin Army soldiers or the corpses of the Britannia Army soldiers, all must be buried.

The reason why even the corpses of Luo Lin's soldiers had to be buried was not because Su Cheng was so kind and merciful, but simply because Su Cheng did not want to cause a plague.

Although the best way to stop the plague is to cremate all the corpses, the East Route Army in Sioux City does not have so much fuel to cremate all the corpses. After all, there are tens of thousands of corpses here.

Therefore, Su Cheng, who did not have enough fuel, could only order all the corpses to be buried as deep as possible to avoid being dug up and eaten by wild dogs or wolves.

——Although the East Route Army's baggage reserves don't have much fuel, they do have many shovels.

Su Cheng left the task of directing the soldiers to bury the bodies to Deng Jiaer, and the task of counting the casualties to Willy.

In addition, Su Cheng also ordered the commander of the 8th Army and the commander of the 4th Army, who had returned with Deng Jiaer, to organize the soldiers to relocate the camp and move the camp south. 5 miles away from the old camp.

The reason why Su Cheng asked the two of them to organize the manpower to move the camp was because the soldiers fought fiercely all night. During the battle, their nerves were highly tense, so they did not feel tired, but were very tired. Excited.

And after the battle, as soon as the tense nerves relax, the excitement will immediately subside, and the fatigue will come up like a tide.

In other words, the soldiers are in urgent need of rest now.

However, the current camp is no longer suitable for habitation.

There was meat sauce and blood everywhere. The large amount of blood soaked the ground under his feet into mud. If he stepped on it, his feet would sink directly.

——Able to soak the ground under his feet into mud. You can imagine how much blood there is on the ground of the camp.

The large amount of blood naturally gave rise to a strong smell of blood.

The rich smell of blood was like thick chains, tightly locking Su Cheng's Eastern Route Army camp. This rich smell of blood would not dissipate for a while.

The current environment in Daying is obviously no longer suitable for people to live in.

Therefore, Su Cheng asked the commanders of the 4th Army and the 8th Army to organize manpower, move the camp south, and re-establish a new camp 5 miles away from the old camp.

Su Cheng also specially asked the two of them to be fast! Because many soldiers could not even stand due to fatigue, there was an urgent need to build a new camp quickly so that the soldiers could rest in a clean new camp.

The commander of the 4th Army and the Commander of the 8th Army were indeed capable knights. They completed the tasks entrusted by Su Cheng perfectly and built the new camp at an extremely fast speed.

Now, except for the soldiers responsible for burying the corpses, all the soldiers have now moved to the new camp to sleep and rest.

The commanders of the 4th Army and the 8th Army have completed their missions, and now only Deng Jiaer and Willy are left who have not yet completed their missions.

So, Su Cheng is now sitting on this big smooth rock, eating breakfast and quietly waiting for Deng Jiaer and Willy to complete their tasks and come over to report.

Su Cheng was not wearing armor on his upper body at this time.

And the reason is very simple.

——Because he wanted Alan, who was sleeping on his right shoulder, to sleep better.

Alan was currently sleeping on Su Cheng's right shoulder.

In the past two days, Alan can be said to be exhausted.

The day before yesterday, that is, the night of July 24, Alan took the lead and cleared the city of Laer. After a short rest with Deng Jiaer, he immediately led the troops to attack at high speed and returned to rescue Su Cheng.

After running for nearly a day and night, they finally managed to return to Su Cheng's camp last night, the night of July 25th.

After returning to Su Cheng's camp and seeing that Su Cheng was safe, Alan first breathed a sigh of relief, and then spontaneously participated in the annihilation battle against the 40,000 Luo Lin troops who had succeeded in Su Cheng's plan and were besieged in the camp. .

Alan followed the soldiers and fought together until dawn and until the end of the annihilation battle.

Although Alan's natural physical strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, no matter how powerful Alan is, Alan's body is not made of steel.

Under this series of tossing, attacking the city, running at high speed, and participating in the annihilation battle, even Alan was exhausted at this time.

So after the sun came up and the annihilation battle ended, Alan found Su Cheng and planned to sleep on Su Cheng's shoulder.

——This can be regarded as a habit of Alan. Normally, Alan would ask to sleep next to Su Cheng from time to time.

After all, sleeping on Su Cheng's shoulder is one of Alan's best memories.

Naturally, Su Cheng would not refuse his sister's request.

In order to make Alan sleep more comfortably, Su Cheng took off the armor from his upper body, so that Alan didn't have to sleep against the cold, hard shoulder armor.

At the same time, in order not to affect Alan's sleep, who was sleeping on his right shoulder, Su Cheng tried not to use his right hand, but always used his left hand.

Su Cheng held a cup filled with hot black tea and sipped it in small sips.

Suddenly, Su Cheng felt a little cold on his right shoulder.

Su Cheng turned his head slightly and looked at his right shoulder.

After shifting his gaze to his right shoulder, Su Cheng couldn't help but reveal a wry smile.

——It turned out to be Alan who was sleeping very soundly and was drooling.

The saliva flowing from the corner of Alan's mouth wetted a small piece of fabric on Su Cheng's right shoulder.

Looking at the wet cloth on his right shoulder, Su Cheng smiled bitterly, then turned his head back, letting Alan continue to drool and wet his clothes.

Just when Su Cheng raised the tea cup in his left hand again and planned to continue drinking——

"gentlemen."

——Deng Jiaer's voice suddenly came from the left.

Su Cheng followed the sound and found a tired Deng Jiaer walking quickly towards him.

"Both the corpses of the Luo Lin Army soldiers and the corpses of our troops have all been buried."

"Well. I have really worked hard for you these days, Deng Jiaer." Su Cheng smiled, "In the eastern battlefield of the 'Xia Feng' offensive, you are undoubtedly the second most important contributor. Only 5,000 cavalry were used. , defeated the troops of Simeon and Eugene, and wiped out 150,000 enemies. After the offensive is over, I will properly report your military exploits. I really read it right, you have no doubt What a military genius!"

After hearing Su Cheng's praise, a shy look appeared on Deng Jiaer's face.

"This is all thanks to you, sir." Deng Jiaer scratched his hair and said in an embarrassed tone, "Without your help and opportunities, sir, how would I have had the chance to show off my talent... "
