Chapter 452 Thaddeus's first command
My name is Thaddeus. I was originally a Spartan, but now I am a soldier of Winter Kingdom.
I serve in the winter knights, the ace unit of the winter kingdom, but I am not a powerful knight, just a very ordinary member of the knights.
So when Commander Gareth Stanton ordered me to lead a small team to destroy the mages who were hiding from the enemy, I was a little nervous.
Take a deep breath, then exhale~Take another deep breath, exhale~
After adjusting his mentality, he turned around and faced the team members I led: "For this mission, our team's temporary code name is Echo, and we are responsible for cleaning up all the temple mages on the west side of the battlefield. Do you have any questions?"
"No!"
The four subordinates answered crisply, with sonorous and forceful voices, without joking, which made me heave a sigh of relief.
It’s my first time officially serving as a commander, I’m so nervous, thankfully they can’t see my face with the helmet on…
"team leader."
"What?"
"Your helmet."
"..."
Took the helmet and put it on, I felt my cheeks steaming, but I decided to ignore him and just pretend nothing happened.
At this moment, the hatch of the Quinjet fighter jet opened, the original dazzling red light went out, and the green light symbolizing the battle turned on.
"Echo Squad, go!"
"dog Dog Dog!"
"Wuhu~"
"Silly beeps of the temple, the master is here!"
Listening to the various shouts coming from the communication channel, the original tension suddenly disappeared.
"Pay attention to the distance and keep the formation!" While paying attention to the various data on the screen, I looked at the target location that was about to 'land', and soon I found the target: "Mark, clear the field!"
"receive!"
Watching Mark on the lower right turn on the missile launcher, killing all the archers and full-armed infantry on the ground, I glanced at the altimeter again.
"Adjust your posture, slow down!"
Boom!
The thrusters started, and the teammates who were falling rapidly like a big lump of iron all paused in the air, and then 'slammed' firmly on the ground one after another.
Boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
I was the last one to land, and the commander will be protected by the team members when he is airborne. This is the first time I have enjoyed this kind of treatment.
To be honest, there is nothing special about it.
"Pay attention to your surroundings."
While ordering the team members to search for the target, I couldn't help but glanced in the direction of the main battlefield not far away.
"Oh~ it looks so spectacular."
Three thousand heavy armored knights wearing full body heavy armor with various lights shining on the armor are launching a charge to the north.
Three thousand horses that were also heavily armored and well-built ran on the ground, making a loud rumbling sound. The sound reached the ears, as if several hammers were constantly hitting the heart.
It feels like standing on the sidelines from a distance, not to mention facing the impact head-on.
"A very powerful cavalry unit, unfortunately... chose the wrong opponent."
Taking advantage of the opportunity, I glanced in the direction of the Knights of Tiran in the distance, and the three Apocalypse tanks located in the middle and on both sides are adjusting their turrets...
Boom boom boom!
Apocalypse fired, and his teammates also fired.
"Captain, it's a mage!"
"Kill them!" I no longer pay attention to the situation on the main battlefield, and focus on the task at hand. Through the search device on the helmet, I have found many hostile targets: "Keep your distance, pay attention to your surroundings, this time is a collective action, don't dispersion…"
"Fifty meters ahead on the left, a team of archers!"
"High Explosive Missile!"
"Mage, you have a shield!"
"Flash shock bomb, set fire!"
"Assassin found in the rear!"
After hearing the report from the team members, I immediately stopped focusing and shooting, and handed over the mage and his guards who had opened the shield on the opposite side to the team members: "Leave the assassin to me!"
After turning around again, he immediately used various detection systems to search for the assassin's location, and after a second without any results, he immediately raised his foot and stepped on the ground vigorously.
Consecrate!
Although it wasn't long before I learned this skill, it couldn't perfectly convert the holy light released on the ground into enough damage, but it was enough to force the invisible assassin to reveal his figure.
A muffled hum came from beside me, and I turned my head to follow the sound, and found that the assassin had already stretched out his arms and hugged my assault rifle, as if he wanted to **** my weapon away.
For such a naive fool, I didn't bother to say to him, "It's absolutely impossible to **** the rifle from the winter knight wearing the blizzard power armor." Throwing the assassin away, he fell heavily on the ground ten meters away.
Raise your gun, aim, and shoot!
A group of bright blood mist exploded, and then a tactical flash bomb was fired from the left arm: "Watch out for the flash bomb!"
boom!
A bright light flashed, and after changing positions and releasing several consecrations, no more assassins were found. It seemed that there was only one guy ambushing here.
Turning around, the team members had already killed those mages and guards.
"What an easy task."
"It's a pity, if we let us follow the brigade to assault the mage army position on the opposite side."
"That's no different from now, right?"
"Can fire a few more shots..."
Listening to the conversation in the team channel, I couldn't help but say, "Maybe it's because there are too many teammates, and I didn't get a single kill."
"Hahaha, it's really possible!"
Everyone said something like, "After all, we were assigned to clean up some miscellaneous soldiers on the edge of the battlefield because we were too weak", and by the way, we expected to become stronger in the future.
Although everyone is indeed one of the weaker members of the Winter Knights, they have passed various rigorous trainings, successfully mastered the holy light, and become true paladins.
So, everyone has a bright future!
Besides, the Winter Knights will definitely continue to expand, and those present will at least be able to be captains.
"At that time, our captain can be promoted again."
"You don't need to wait for the recruits to join, but when you go back this time, the captain will be able to raise the rank of the general, right?"
"Sure... by the way, what's on the lieutenant?"
"Officer! As a soldier of Winter City, don't you even remember such important things?"
"I can't go up again, why remember this? Hey...Look over there, the Knights Templar was defeated by the Knights of Tiran..."
Listening to the conversations of the team members, I was still thinking about whether I could be promoted from lieutenant to captain after returning this time, but one sentence attracted my attention to the main battlefield again.
On the wide plain, thousands of Templar Knights wearing gorgeous armor were easily destroyed by the Tiran Knights using heavy artillery, rifles, and grenades. After the momentum of the charge, they were put on the heavy cavalry system Tiran The knights rushed into the chaotic army and killed them fancy.
Even if a small number of Knights Templar deliberately left the 'battlefield' and rearranged their positions, they would be killed by heavy artillery from the Apocalypse tanks not far away.
Looking at the Knights Templar who have no power to fight back, I don't think that Holy Gunter Kingdom can come back.
It's not just the war in front of us, the only thing waiting for the Holy Gunter Kingdom and the Temple is the result of complete destruction.
"It seems that this war is over."
Continue to search for the enemy mages on the flanks of the battlefield. After finding no enemies around, I contacted Megatron.
Megatron, who is in the air overlooking the entire battlefield, quickly provided me with new target information—even if the enemy has the ability to hide himself, once the mage starts casting spells, any concealment skills will lose their effect. Days can easily find them.
Having information about the location of the new target, I took the four winter knights under me and rushed there as fast as possible, and then wiped out the target.
However, after getting the target information three times, I did not receive any new location information, and only got the order of 'Standby'.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at the team members looking at me, I can only spread my hands and give my guess: "Maybe there are no enemies nearby."
"It seems so."
"This Holy Kingdom of Gaunt is too irresistible, dare to provoke Winter City like this?"
"I hope the following battles will be a little more exciting."
"Impossible, this battle should wipe out all the soldiers of the Holy Gunter Kingdom and the Temple."
3,000 Knights Templar, 5,000 full-armored infantry, and more than 1,000 mages. I thought about this 'terrible' number in my heart. I seriously doubt whether there are any soldiers in the Holy Gunter Kingdom. young adults.
If this is the case, will there be no such thing as the Knights of Winter?
I want to be promoted to captain, but do I have to wait until the war between Cold Winter City and the Soduruma Empire, or the New Alan Federation?
If he thinks a little further, will he never be promoted to the rank of school officer?
After all, there are only a few countries around the Winter Kingdom. Maybe after the human kingdom is unified, there will be no more battles in the future.
Smacking my lips, I began to think seriously, if there is no war in Winter City in the future, will the soldiers still have such good benefits? Should I look into what else I can do for a living?
Open a restaurant? Tavern? Or ask for a wife first? How many fat boys and girls are born?
Well, but most of the time I stay in the military camp, I don’t know who to find as a wife for a while. After this war is over, I have to search hard, and I must find a good woman who is strong enough.
By the way, Shirley, as a policeman in Winter City, knows a lot of people, maybe I can ask her to help me introduce a suitable partner.
If you ask someone for help, do you have to give some gifts, invite someone to eat first?
What should I send?
Before I could come up with an answer, the order to retreat had been issued. After standing still and waiting for a while, my team members and I were quickly picked up by the Quin-style fighter jets and flew back to the station together.
