New Year is the grandest festival in Yongdalim. At this time, people in Yongdalim will have a family reunion and have a New Year’s Eve dinner. Fire magicians will always release their magic at this time to celebrate this festival. festival.

Even in the south, this atmosphere has not diminished in the slightest.

Autumn goes to winter, and a whole year has passed. Farmers have been busy for a year and finally ushered in their rest time. The harvested granary reflects their joyful faces. This year's New Year is particularly lively. Going to buy some necessities and daily necessities that should be there for the New Year. Many homes have a meaty smell that I haven’t seen in many years. Some people are paying New Year’s greetings on the street. Everyone is full of joy and enthusiasm Excited, lamenting the arrival of brighter days.

Many young people who worked for the [-]th Army in the town also returned home one after another, and brought back a lot of things, some were distributed by the guerrilla government, and some were bought with their salaries. Dalim New Year is also nicknamed the New Year's Pass by people. Chinese New Year is like a pass, but now it is different. In fact, people started the arrival of the first year a month ago, looking forward to this festival that finally belongs to them.

The tax collected by the guerrilla government is much lower than that of other regions. Considering the situation of the [-]th Army, the central government has only set a lower amount compared to other regions, and allowed the guerrilla government to keep military expenses and other public expenses for later use. Handing in, this practice actually aroused general doubts from the bureaucracy at first, because it gave too much autonomy to the [-]th Army, but every time the [-]th Army pays taxes, it can make the bureaucrats pay as much as possible. Satisfied, they stopped asking about this matter, and just let the guerrilla government handle it by itself. After all, you don't care about it, you can pay taxes, and no one cares about you even if you are independent.

The central government does not need to be responsible for the military and government expenditures of the [-]th Army, and can collect a considerable amount of taxes. Naturally, it is very satisfied with the work here. Okdo's status has been promoted several levels from the land work representative. He became the so-called deputy minister of the central and southern plenipotentiary government. In fact, this kind of position was only available in the Ropotia area before. Deputies served, but no principal was actually dispatched to take over the job.

The guerrilla government also changed its name to the South Central Provisional Government under such circumstances, which also made Fafnir's generals depressed for a while. It was really annoying that such a big name did not fall on them.

The premise of all this is that the central government is completely unaware of Okdo’s land work situation. If they fully understand the whole situation, they may immediately ask the Fafnir Legion to start restricting the Central South government and prohibit them from expanding.

This year is also destined to have some parting. For example, Miguchi will definitely not be able to go back. He must receive new training and prepare for battle. Lieutenant General Sherman just wrote a letter to his family in Wangcheng to explain the current situation. The war is urgent. As for Okdo, he also has to work in the interim government and has become the busiest person in the entire government.

"Dear Serena," Okedo wrote.

"We haven't seen each other for a year. I don't know how Wangcheng is doing now? Is the little guy mad at you? Is he willing to eat?" Okdo said to himself with a smile on his face while writing.

"This year is the New Year. Usually I should spend this holiday with you. There are also brothers Sun Boyang, but this year I can't go back. The offensive of the noble alliance is pressing every step of the way. I can't do without me here, and I can't do it." Go back, I guess, those annoying officials must have gone to our house to invite you to the ball?"

"That's helpless. After all, I'm an official now. Although I'm not as big as Sun Boyang, I'm worthy of some officials' favor."

"Although I can't go back, I don't feel sad. I saw with my own eyes that the farmers have become happy because of my work. They live on this land full of hope. I am happy when they are happy, oh ! Serena, I hope you won't be jealous because of this."

"Please send my regards to my parents, and the workers in the city, Brother Sun Boyang, now, I should go to the countryside."

"Love you Okto Heinrich."

Mr. Okdo sealed the envelope and handed it to the guard beside him. He stood up and looked at the slightly yellowed sky, took a deep breath of cold air, and walked out of the office.

"Go around." Okdo said to the guard outside the door with a smile.

"Then I have to follow, Mr. Okto, this is an instruction personally issued by Mr. Sun Boyang." The guard shrugged helplessly and replied.

"Sure." Okto also said with a smile.

The melodious singing echoed in the wilderness. It was a rough voice, the voice of an old farmer. In this rough voice, Okedo heard the joy and expectation for life. Okedo turned his head and followed his own The guard and the guard in charge of secretarial work smiled. He untied his cloak and put it on the young guard, and put his octagonal hat on another official wearing glasses, Dennis.

"What are you doing?"

This official, who is nearly forty years old, is the only person in charge of government work in Okdo. He looked at Okdo with strange eyes. The official came from the southeast, because in the public newspapers sent to the southeast Not to mention, he is really a very dedicated official, who is proficient in handling affairs no matter how big or small. At first, Okedo was worried whether this Mr. Dennis would be corrupt, just like officials in other provinces , but after observation in the future, he confirmed that he came here in the name of serving the people.

It is said that this person graduated from Kingdom College and was an official in the Central Committee and the Southeast, but because he could not get used to the ugliness of the officialdom, he resigned and quit the family of officials. A qualified official was willing to come. It can be seen His sincerity was gone.

"I'll pretend to be a small official, Dennis, you have enough momentum, pretend to be a high-ranking official." Okedo smiled and led them forward.

"Which one is this called?" Dennis took off his glasses and wiped them, feeling helpless at Okdo's behavior.

"Hometown! Hometown!"

Okdo stepped forward and sat down with the fellow who was sitting on the ridge of the field. He didn't dislike the dust on the ground at all, and chatted with the bearded fellow.

"Hey, you are... I don't think you look like a businessman." The old farmer said holding a pipe.

"I'm here to inspect the land work. I saw you sitting and chatted with you." Okdo said to the old farmer with a smile and took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over. Although he doesn't smoke, he Still have to bring a cigarette to facilitate the conversation.

"Old man, how is the land work on your side? How many acres are divided into the family?" Okedo asked.

"It's pretty good. The seven people in my family shared about eight acres of land last May. Look, this piece of land is all my family's. The radishes and potatoes we planted will definitely be another bumper harvest next year. "The old farmer answered with a smile, taking the cigarette and clipping it to his ear.

"Is this year's food enough? Is there any difficulty?" Okdo asked again.

"Oh, brother, you are not the first wave." The old farmer laughed loudly.

"You don't know, during this period of time, three or four officials have come to ask the same question as you about dividing the land. They all ask the same way as you, how many acres are divided, how many people are in the family, and whether there is enough food. Is there any difficulty?" The old farmer said cheerfully.

"Look, we're not done yet." Okdo turned around, laughed with the guards and Dennis, and spread their hands to express their helplessness.

"The situation this year is much better than last year. There are no floods or droughts. We have paid enough food and left enough food." The old farmer said.

"But do you want to say that it is difficult? Yes, it is inconvenient to buy things. There is food and some money left. I want to buy something to take care of my family. But buying a lot of things is too laborious. Many things have to rely on other people's travel merchants Buying is very strenuous, you see, yesterday I went to our government city before dawn, just to buy what I need quickly, I worked hard all day, I don’t know how to waste my energy.” The old farmer also nodded slightly and said.

"Although I used to come to travel merchants to go to the big city, it is more convenient. Now there are fewer tourist merchants, and only one of them comes in a few months. I only bring a little stuff, and the things I buy in the government city are all from the city. Those shipped from the central province have to rush to buy, which is very laborious."

"Well, this problem needs to be solved." Okedo turned to Dennis and said.

"According to Mr. Sun Boyang's instructions, it is estimated that five factories responsible for the production of daily necessities will be built in the government city before June this year, so as to solve the problem of the people in the government district purchasing daily necessities." Dennis pushed down his glasses and replied.

"Why, do you know Mr. Sun Boyang?" The old farmer quickly opened his eyes and looked at Okedo. He looked at Okdor carefully, and suddenly let out an exclamation, as if he saw an incredible person.

"You are Mr. Okto!"

"Yes, it's me, old man, you have good eyesight." Okedo held the hand of the old farmer, and replied with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Octo! Oh, look, I don't even know what to say, I...you..." The old farmer clasped Octo's hand tightly with his incoherent hands.

"You can hide it from me! I have long seen that you don't look like an ordinary person. You look familiar. Oh, it's easy to hide. Look at my memory. When the guerrilla government was established, I went to the town to see it. How could I forget it? It's over." The old farmer said annoyedly and joyfully.

"It's getting late, old man, we have to go too." Okdo stood up and shook the old farmer's hand and said with a smile.

"That won't work!"

"Ok?"

"I can't give up if you lie to me like this. You owe me a meal of dumplings at my house."

"Oh, I said, old man, isn't this a burden on your family? What's more, I have to go back to the government to eat."

"You can't hide it from me. People in my village who work in the government have returned, and the government doesn't care about dumplings. What a burden, Mr. Okto, you are my own family! Folks! Mr. Okto is here!"

"How?" Dennis said to the guard with a helpless smile.

"I knew I couldn't go back out."

......

In Wangcheng, Sun Boyang was having a joyful gathering with the workers. Everyone was having a good time at the workers’ hotel. Hai Yian beat the beat with two small wooden sticks, and Sun Boyang led the workers to sing a song of unity.

Arise, sing, we march to victory...

114 Fearless

The jaw-dropping news soon came from two different channels. The two militia patrols were almost wiped out, and the rangers also brought news that the noble army was escorting the people to the gate. No one expected that the nobles The army is such a jerk. When the [-]th army thought that they had already reached the offline by killing the collective leaders outside the pass, the noble army once again proved that they can break through themselves and hit a new low.

The soldiers in the Emen Gate and the people who came to support them were in an uproar. Based on the news of the young man who had escaped, everyone knew that the noble army was going to be wiped out. But he was worried about the people and didn't know what to do.

Yes, although it is despicable, I have to admit that this is a clever trick. The officers and soldiers of the [-]th Army generally accept the concept that the army and the people are one, and the army and the people are like family members. Many artillerymen have expressed their hope to Major General Rebio not to attack the people. They really cannot accept seeing the people die tragically under their own cannons.

If the people were allowed to fill the canal, it would be more difficult to defend in the future, and it might be enough to defend for a month, but if the people who were driven to fill the canal were attacked, no soldiers or officers would accept this order.

This is not just about the feelings between the soldiers and the people, many officers also have cautious considerations. Accepting this order means that there is absolutely no hope of rising in the future, and at worst, they will be held accountable.Whether it is public or private, everyone has expressed the hope that General Rebio will carefully consider before making a decision.

At this moment, General Rebio is watching all this with a pipe on the head of the gate of the city. He can even see the noble army driving the peasants in thin clothes from the vanguard camp to this side, leaving him little time to think. Now, how to deal with it, whether to fight or not to fight, this is a problem.

Rebio was born in an orthodox military family. His ancestors have been officers for generations, and some even served as lieutenants of the legion. Therefore, when he makes military deployments, he often thinks from a purely military point of view, and seldom thinks from a political point of view. The more cautious you are, the more you have to think carefully.

"Penet, pass on the order." General Rebio put down his pipe and exhaled.

"Bombardment permitted."

"General! What about these common people?"

"If we can't stop the coalition forces of the nobles here, then these thousands of civilians will not be the only ones who will die." General Rebio said with a serious tone.

"Once the Evil Gate is lost, it will be a catastrophe. The entire Central South government will have its bones exposed in the wild, and there will be no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. It will be a catastrophe."

"Penet, I am a soldier. The education I have received since I was a child is to train me to be a qualified officer. Now the task I receive is to guard the gate, so I will do my best to guard the gate. I won't be like You, Peigne, are also responsible for political issues, war is not a child's play, and there are countless people in the rear, as well as the Central South government, if you are held accountable in the future, then I will bear it alone."

"But....."

"Once the shelling occurs, we will not be able to explain the situation to the rear anyway. I will apply for voluntary discharge when reinforcements arrive." General Rebio said as if he had made up his mind.

"...As ordered." Penny sighed and agreed helplessly.

"The gate of evil must be guarded." General Rebio said as he was about to walk down the tower again.

"General! General!"

Ferraci ran over in a hurry, and while waving his hand, he signaled General Rebio to look at the opponent's camp.

Seeing Frankie's movements, General Rebio climbed up to the top of the city and picked up the binoculars again. He saw all the farmers, nearly 2000 farmers were driven forward, and walked slowly forward.

The soldiers on the top of the wall all stood up, and they tried their best to look over there, filled with grief, indignation and helplessness in their hearts.

General Rebio put down his binoculars, and he strode back and forth on the top of the city. The officers watched his movements and did not dare to show any emotion. Finally, after a while, General Rebio stopped in his tracks and looked at the officers seriously. them.

"How many infantry are there now?" General Rebio asked with his hands behind his back.

"More than eight hundred, almost full of archers, and 25 magic cannons." Penny immediately replied with a salute.

"Penet, Ferraci, and other officers." General Rebio said.

"What was before us was the question of whether to bombard the people, but obviously, the situation has changed. The guy from Linilea didn't choose to divide them into batches, and drove all the people to the front line in one go."

All the officers were very happy, and they naturally understood what General Rebio meant.

"Now we have one more choice." General Rebio said slowly.

"Open the gates and fight back in the field."

"Who agrees with this resolution?"

Peña voted by showing his hands in accordance with the democratic rules of the army. All the officers raised their hands in unison. No one disagreed with this decision. Everyone is a soldier who is not afraid of death. Many of the officers' hometowns are in the southern region. , their family has enjoyed the benefits of the guerrilla government, and everyone has already decided to fight for the liberation of the southern region wholeheartedly. There is no coward. This is the status quo of the Fifteenth Army.

"Once this decision is made, our soldiers will suffer huge casualties, and it will be even more difficult to guard the border."

"Now everyone still decides to go to the field to fight back?" General Rebio asked again.

"General." Ferraci said with his chest out.

"If you ask the soldiers, the answer is yes."

......

Ewinie walked in the forefront of the villagers. Somehow, all the people in the camp were sent to the battlefield. This was an extremely beneficial thing for them. Every farmer was shaking hands with each other to encourage each other. Regardless of whether the guerrillas bombarded them or not, they would never help the devils fill the ditch, they must be beaten out, and they must not be allowed to cross the evil gate.

The peasants walked forward with weak but firm steps, and they moved forward hand in hand. From time to time, some extremely weak peasants could not make it to the end and fell to the ground, unable to get up again, step by step, seeing Now, we are approaching the ditch below the city.

Behind and in the front, there is an escort team full of imperial devils mixed among the peasants. These five hundred vicious guys escort the peasants to death, and there is a large army behind them, keeping a distance of 3000 people. Then, the officers in the noble army were triumphant, without any sense of crisis at all. Obviously, they all felt that the other party would never dare to shoot at them.

It was quiet on the top of the city, there were only faint figures, and I didn't know where the troops defending the city had gone. General Linilea put down his binoculars and heaved a sigh of relief. He could only watch what happened next. reacted.

He had already made the most correct choice for Emperor Polo and his own conscience. Despite all the opinions, he insisted that all farmers go to the battle to fill the canal, leaving no one behind. This is already trying to give the [-]th Legion a chance.

"General."

The lieutenant came to salute on horseback and said.

"I heard from the rear that another team escorting farmers was attacked by rangers and they were all wiped out."

"Well, I see." General Linerea replied with a nod.

The front was still silent, as if there was no one stationed at the Emen Gate, which also made the representatives of the nobles and the officers puzzled and did not understand the plan of the [-]th Army.

All of a sudden, the city gate of Emenguan was slowly pushed open, and accompanied by the sonorous and powerful military music, everything seemed to come alive, as if several carps had been born in dead water, and the magic cannons on the tower were one after another. was pushed out, the loud and clear chants of the magicians spread all over the fields under the sky, and the orderly footsteps of the soldiers shook all directions on the ground. The [-]th Army chose to go out of the city to fight in the field!

Armored infantry and light infantry filed out, followed by archers. They marched forward with firm steps, adjusted their formation, and attacked forward.

"Unbelievable," said General Linilea, putting down his binoculars.

The sound of the magic cannon sounded, gunpowder smoke filled the top of the city, and the heavy shells shot at the noble army behind the peasants. Although there were no casualties due to the distance, the noble army still made the noble army restless.

The peasants burst into loud cheers. Although they were weak and unappealing, they still fought towards the imperial devils around them amid Ewinie's shouting. It was not a good idea to attack these well-equipped noble troops with their flesh and blood. It is a very futile thing, but at this moment these noble troops seem to be scared out of their wits. The five hundred noble troops who were escorting the peasants were dazed by the peasants' fearless counterattack. The pace of the army moved forward step by step, and the noble army who was still doing suppression quickly broke into an army and ran back in groups.

Those who could not escape were immediately besieged and beaten to death by the peasants who rushed up. The peasants wanted to eat their meat alive. They stripped off the armor and weapons of the dead noble army, and looked at the ten soldiers who had already approached. The five armies shouted loudly and wept excitedly.

"Order all the ministries to attack, take advantage of the chaos to win the battle in the field, and order the cavalry to quickly attack the flanks!"

Linirea will be merciful, but he is also a regular general. He immediately commanded the army to take advantage of the chaos of the fifteenth army to launch an attack. Riding their horses and rushing forward, they lined up and circled to the right side of the [-]th Army. The archers of the [-]th Army fired bows and arrows to stop them.Stop their flanking attacks.

The magic fell into the formation of the army, and the archers of the noble army also began to shoot. One after another, young and enthusiastic soldiers fell, but no one was afraid because of this, and all the soldiers continued to move forward with firm steps. before, and divided into two halves to let the road out to signal the peasants to return to the pass.

"Penet!" Ferraci, who was wearing silver armor and holding a long sword tightly in his hand, shouted to Penelope who was also walking with him.

Penny turned his head to look around, and gestured to him a salute gesture that only the Leszeks knew. The two laughed together and put their hands down together.

"Soldiers!" Penny shouted to the soldiers beside him.

"Long live the Zhongnan government!" Penny paused and continued to shout:

"Long live Leszek!"

The two put down their visors together, drew out their long swords clangingly, and let out a roar commanding the charge.
