Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

Chapter 183 The Reversal of the Wheel of Fortune

Lieutenant Kiyomizu sighed and said to Lieutenant Nagasudo Seiji, "Nagasudo, the attacks of those mysterious races are too fierce. We can't resist them. Quick, destroy those secret scrolls and magic code books!"

Lieutenant Yukiichi Kiyomi and Lieutenant Seiji Nagasudo attempt to burn the secret scrolls containing the mysterious power of the Japanese army, as well as the vital magic code book.

These are the keys to the secrets of their army and must be destroyed quickly before they fall into enemy hands, who will be able to decipher these scrolls to reveal countless secrets.

Lieutenant Yukiichi Kiyoma was in charge of burning the scrolls, while Lieutenant Seiji Nagasudo was looking for the magic code book that was closely guarded by the messenger. It was supposed to be with the officer at all times, but in this chaotic transmission accident, the messenger disappeared and his life or death was unknown.

Lieutenant Nagasudo Seiji tried desperately to find him, but a magic missile pierced through the carriage and hit his breastplate, causing him to fall to the ground in agony, barely able to suppress his heart-wrenching scream.

Realizing that he didn't have much time left, Lieutenant Nagasudo Seiji struggled to call out Lieutenant Kiyomi Kiyomi's name, "Kiya! Kiyomi..."

He had something important to tell. However, Lieutenant Yukiichi Kiyoma only glanced back and was horrified to see Nagasudo lying on the ground. Although he heard the call for help, he was too busy destroying the scroll to care.

Lieutenant Yukiichi Kiyoma continued his mission and asked, "Nagasudo, what do you want?" After waiting for a moment and seeing no one responding, he turned his head.

Lieutenant Nagasudo Seiji has passed away. Lieutenant Kiyomizu Yukiichi sighed sadly and continued to burn the scroll.

After confirming that the scroll had turned to ashes, he drew out his magic pistol, pointed it at his forehead, and fired without hesitation.

His fate was on his side this time, and the Nambu Model XIV pistol did not malfunction.

Bang! The bullet pierced his head, and Lieutenant Yukiichi Kiyaya died instantly.

When the enemies on the battlefield were almost wiped out and even the last sounds of magic shooting became sparse, Shen Quan shouted: "Charge! Eliminate the remaining enemies and evacuate quickly. I'm afraid the foreign army in Xin County has learned about the train attack! We must retreat immediately!"

The train had become a slaughter arena, hundreds of foreign soldiers were ruthlessly killed. The battle was one-sided, and the first battalion of the second column lost dozens of soldiers.

Looking at the enemy corpses scattered all over the ground, Shen Quan felt great satisfaction.

"We are really lucky this time. I didn't expect this train to carry so many aliens. It looks like there are at least 300 enemies!"

Xu Jishen, the commander of the first battalion, glanced at the battlefield and said, "It looks like there are two elite teams. Commander, we have achieved a great victory!"

Shen Quan waved his hand and said, "This is just good luck! I didn't expect the aliens to underestimate the enemy. Next time, we won't be so lucky!

The Tongpu Railway is mainly used to transport ore and is a freight line.

For the Eighth Route Army, ore was not a critical supply.

Their main raid targets were concentrated on the Zhengtai Railway.

As a result, the Tongpu Railway suffered relatively few attacks.

Who would have thought that the 358th Regiment would suddenly launch a surprise attack on the railway?

In the distant continent of Erathia, after several fierce battles with the enemy, the northern army suffered heavy losses, and the royal court decided to send some warriors south to reinforce.

This gave the 1st Battalion of the 2nd Corps an unprecedented chance of victory.

Battalion Commander Eldrick smiled and said: "Although it is still unknown whether such a victory can be repeated in the future, this time, the enemy will definitely be heartbroken."

Johnson had no other thoughts about this. He ordered: "Fight quickly and resolve the situation quickly. Evacuate immediately after clearing the battlefield."

"As ordered!"

This rail train was originally used to transport soldiers and contained almost nothing else except enemy supplies.

After looting the enemy's weapons and equipment, they quietly evacuated.

When a group of enemy troops from Xin County arrived, all they saw was an overturned train and enemy corpses scattered all over the ground. There was no trace of the Second Corps.

The enemy was unable to track down the Second Legion, so they had to gather up the dead souls and report the matter to headquarters.

The First Battalion of the Second Corps under Johnson's command wiped out more than four hundred enemy troops with only seventy casualties. This brilliant victory shocked everyone.

As deputy group leaders, everyone was unwilling to be outdone.

Johnson has shown his bravery. If they don't do anything more,

Not only will they be humiliated in front of their superiors, but even the soldiers under their command will look down on them!

Wu Ziqiang, Sun Jiang and Cheng Yuqing originally planned to train the recruits before taking action, but now they can't wait any longer.

They mobilized their troops and prepared to challenge the enemy and its vassal forces.

Sun Jiang, captain of the Third Legion, stared at the ancient map, pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision.

He looked up and announced, "Commander of the First Battalion!"

When the commander of the first battalion, Clayton, heard the deputy commander's call, he immediately responded, "Captain, what do you want?"

Sun Jiang said: "We have recruited many new soldiers. I think it's time to find some appropriate enemies and let them experience real war!"

"Appropriate opponents?" Clayton realized and suggested, "Captain, you mean the puppet army that is loyal to the enemy!"

"Exactly!" Sun Jiang pointed to Wanha Town on the map, "I decided to attack there!"

Clayton noticed the town of Wanha marked on the map and was surprised: "Captain, haven't we attacked this place before?"

"That's right, but is there any problem with that?" Sun Jiang asked back.

Indeed, is there any reason not to attack again?

Clayton immediately straightened his back: "No problem!"

"In that case, get ready immediately!" Sun Jiang ordered sternly.

"As ordered!"

Wanha Town, they had fought here before and they were familiar with the terrain and topography.

After preparing the magic ammunition and checking their weapons, the 650 soldiers of the First Battalion quickly set out on a forced march.

The fifty-kilometer long-distance raid was a severe test of the soldiers' endurance.

If it were the 358th Regiment two years ago, this would probably have been a difficult task.

Today, although it is difficult, they all persevere.

After marching for more than five hours, the First Battalion of the Third Corps, led by Sun Jiang, arrived at the outskirts of Wanha Town.

Observing through the telescope, it was clear that the enemy's defense of Wanha Town had been relaxed since the last joint attack by the 358th Regiment and the Independent Regiment.

Cavalry?

...

There is no doubt that the invaders from other worlds are not stupid people and will not form another cavalry regiment and send it to the enemy to help them grow stronger.

Even the remains of the castle that had been bombarded by magic cannons were still in ruins and had not been repaired.

The cracks are still there, silently telling of the scars of past battles.

The city was once guarded by a puppet army corps, but now only an understaffed battalion remains garrisoned.

Sun Jiang stared at the puppet army guarding the pass under the city with contempt in his heart.

When our 358th Regiment was at its peak, we never retreated even in the face of powerful enemies.

There is no need to worry now.

He drew out his magic hand cannon and gave the order: "Captain of the First Battalion, inform the entire battalion. Once the whistle sounds, charge with all your might and capture Wanling Town in one fell swoop!"

"Yes, deputy commander!" Cao Feng turned around and whispered, "Prepare to charge!"

More than 600 soldiers of the First Battalion held their magic guns tightly, waiting for the signal to attack.

"charge!"

When the signal sounded, the soldiers of the first battalion of the third column immediately jumped up and rushed towards Wanling Town.

The puppet army sentry at the town gate noticed the commotion in the distance and identified the visitor.

They stared with horror and screamed:

"Oh my god, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army? The 358th Regiment is here again?"

Hearing the warning from their companions on the city wall, the puppet soldiers below the city turned pale, screamed, and turned around and ran away.

The puppet soldiers fled before the battle and even forgot to close the city gates, just to escape as quickly as possible.

Sun Jiang was greatly shocked when he saw this.

He hurriedly shouted: "Don't go! Don't go! I won't hurt you, really, don't go, surrender quickly!"
