Lord Harland.
Chapter 25 Escorting the wounded
Today the orc army suffered a disastrous defeat and lost morale. Moreover, they had to prepare for Lieutenant Colonel Marvin's surprise attack. If they could not increase their troops, they would be unable to attack.
After defeating the orcs, Lieutenant Colonel Marvin did not enter the castle to join the Eighth Battalion. Instead, he took the time to collect the remains of the dead soldiers and treat the injured soldiers.
Li Cha led his troops into Fortress No. and met his comrades in the Eighth Battalion.
After not seeing each other for more than a month, everyone was very happy to reunite with their comrades.
After the brutal battles, I now feel like I am surviving a disaster.
Especially the main squadrons of the Eighth Battalion, which had been holding on to the defense line for more than a month, had already suffered very serious casualties. Except for the Sixth Squadron, there were less than 400 people left, including more than 100 wounded.
"How is the situation of the Sixth Squadron?"
Seeing Li Cha, Captain Sharp's eyes were bloodshot, his eye sockets were red and swollen, and his face was full of tiredness.
It seems that this more than a month of war has stretched his spirit to the limit.
"After replenishing the number of soldiers, the Sixth Squadron has not experienced hard battles. It has fought several victorious battles with Lieutenant Colonel Marvin. This time, there are more than forty of our soldiers coming to the rescue. It's just that they are inexperienced and their riding skills are average. They are all chasing the orcs in the rear and defeating them."
After listening to Richard's report, Captain Sharp said solemnly: "Now, your Sixth Squadron has the most abundant soldiers. After the war, I'm afraid we will need to recruit veterans from your squadron to supplement other squadrons."
"Please rest assured, Captain, no matter who is transferred, our squadron will resolutely obey orders."
The two sides exchanged information and gave a general account of this month's battle.
Li Cha bid farewell to his comrades and left Castle No. .
After the battle, Lieutenant Colonel Marvin took the time to ask.
"What are the casualties?"
"The 1st Reconnaissance Squadron suffered 13 casualties, 16 were seriously wounded, and 9 were slightly wounded. The 4th Reconnaissance Squadron suffered 7 casualties, 11 were seriously wounded, and 8 were slightly wounded. The two squadrons combined lost 64 people. Among them, the Fourth Reconnaissance Squadron The squadron leader fell off his horse and was killed, and the military judge of the first reconnaissance squadron was wounded."
The scouts under Lieutenant Colonel Marvin were only two squadrons, with a total of about 270 people.
After several battles, the casualties have exceeded a hundred.
Especially in this battle, although the results were brilliant, more than orcs were killed, which greatly improved the situation on the Pratos front, and their own casualties also exceeded .
Now including the half squadron of mounted infantry commanded by Richard, the total number of soldiers capable of fighting is only about 240.
Moreover, there are still more than forty wounded soldiers who need to be taken care of. If the wounded soldiers are ignored, it will greatly damage morale.
After crossing the Platos Mountains, Marvin's detachment was already fighting without a rear. Once morale collapsed, there was no ability to continue fighting.
Lieutenant Colonel Marvin thought for a while, and decided to send the wounded soldiers back to Harden Castle, and pick up the wounded soldiers of the Eighth Squadron by the way.
"Li Cha, you lead two small groups of soldiers to carry out the task of transporting the wounded. The others will follow me into the Eagle Mountain Range, and cooperate with Baron Harden to ambush the orc logistics."
Although I still want to fight with Lieutenant Colonel Marvin and accumulate military exploits.But the commander issued a military order, and Li Cha had to carry it out.
Lieutenant Colonel Ma Wen left all the carriages to Richard, and then mobilized some pack horses from the Eighth Battalion.
The seriously wounded were crowded into the carriage, and the lightly wounded were holding on to their horses, and returned to the rear with Richard and others.
The chaplain of the Eighth Battalion stayed behind two people to act together with Li Cha and take care of the wounded on the way.
The orcs in the direction of Platos were already frightened, although the scouts discovered Richard's small team. Fearing that he was being ambushed again, Gunderson weighed the pros and cons and did not send troops to pursue him.
The convoy of wounded soldiers blatantly passed through the canyon channel and returned to Harden Castle.
The mission went very well, but unfortunately six people were seriously injured and died.
Soldiers seriously injured in battle can basically save their lives if they survive three days later. However, many wounded soldiers did not survive for three days. The biggest factor in death of wounded soldiers was severe blood loss.
Although priests have healing skills, they will give priority to healing officers.
In the next two days, more soldiers will die.The process of waiting for death is undoubtedly very worrying.
Especially the surviving comrades, seeing the tragic death of their brothers, many people's eyes were filled with tears, which was very sad.
"How's the defense line at Pratos? Have you seen Captain Sharp?"
Diarra was very happy to see Richard and the others come back safely. Captain Sharp was his old officer, and Diarra was very worried about the safety of the old officer.
"Captain Sharp is safe, Captain Sally has been killed, Captain Roland was seriously injured, his left leg was chopped off by the orc below the knee, and he may be retiring after the war.
In addition, Captain Wright of the 1st Squadron and Captain Payton of the 5th Squadron were killed, and Captain Wiles of the 4th Squadron was seriously injured. The casualties of junior officers and backbone soldiers were all serious. It takes a long time to restore combat effectiveness after a war. "
Despite some guesses, Diarra was still very shocked when he heard the news from Richard.Especially when he heard the news of Wright's death, his eyes suddenly turned red.
Wright is his comrade-in-arms for many years, and he was in the same team after joining the army.They have experienced many battles, and their relationship is very deep, and they are true friends who have passed their lives.
Diarra held back his tears, so as not to let others see his weakness, he patted Li Cha's shoulder, his voice was a little hoarse.
"You guys haven't slept all night, go and rest! I will arrange someone to take care of the wounded soldiers."
After returning to Harden Castle, Richard and the others spent another leisurely time.
The war on the Platos defense line has now fallen into a stalemate.The orc army suffered heavy losses in succession and was unable to attack.
The Grant Kingdom's troops were weak and unable to annihilate the orcs.
Time passed by like this, and more than a month passed in the blink of an eye, and it entered late June.
This month, the Sixth Squadron has been training against the clock, and the supplementary soldiers have gradually integrated into the big family of the Sixth Squadron.
In the past month, Richard had participated in many reconnaissance missions and killed four orc scouts. Unfortunately, these scouts were not professionals and failed to achieve any military exploits.
However, the meritorious service of following Lieutenant Colonel Marvin has been applied for, and the surprise attack on Platos Castle was well fought.
Li Cha was awarded a medium merit as an officer participating in the war.
Now Richard has accumulated three times of medium power and seven times of small power.
This month, Li Cha has not been idle. As long as he has spare time, he will work hard to practice breathing and hone various skills.
