Chapter 319 Attack
After departing from Moon Palace, the troops headed southeast.
Like the kingdoms, the Federation's army is not concentrated in a few cities or regions.
Once war breaks out, troops will be conscripted and assembled from various regions.
The Union has seven states:
Jinzhou, Muzhou, Shuizhou, Huozhou, Tuzhou, Baizhou, and Yuezhou.
Moon Palace City is located within Moon Continent, at the westernmost edge of the Far East Continent.
The Japanese state is located in the very center, and its status can be considered the center of the federation.
The parliamentary city, which governs the federation and coordinates the seven states, is located in the southwest of the Japanese state.
Although the Federation also has a royal family, the king is called the Protector, meaning he guards the seven states.
However, the actual power of the federal government is in the hands of Congress.
Sofia currently knows little about the parliament.
However, Sofia learned that there were huge differences between the Eastern and Western cultures in the Far East.
People in the East, despite the existence of multiple regimes, generally have a darker skin color.
Westerners, on the contrary, seem to be closer to the Kingdom's people by blood.
Sophia had also heard such rumors; the Federation people seemed to be a group of Westerners from the permafrost continent.
The answer to this question cannot be verified, but one thing is certain, even among the Federalists, most are unwilling to admit it.
Sofia also felt she had found some evidence to prove her guess.
The common language of the Federation is Moon Language, which obviously originated in Moon State.
And since Yuezhou is in the west, let's assume they are indeed descendants of the Ice People.
So, the first land that the Ice People could reach after crossing the vast ocean could only be the western side of the continent!
But the truth is now impossible to ascertain.
The permafrost continent also has a long history, although this land is advanced in many ways.
However, this has only been happening for the last two thousand years.
Before this, the frozen continent seemed far more wild and untamed than the Ancent continent and the frozen continent at the same time.
Sofia was eager to learn about these things, as if she were listening to a legendary story.
She was a woman, a promiscuous woman in other people's eyes.
Sofia also admitted that she was promiscuous, but only by being promiscuous could she hide the burning passion in her heart and avoid being ridiculed.
She was riding on horseback.
To be honest, Sofia wasn't very good at riding horses, so it took her many days to get used to the feeling of the saddle rubbing against her inner thighs.
But she never expected that she would also be assigned a horse.
However, upon closer reflection, although it was a temporary position, she was indeed a military officer.
This is the treatment a military officer should receive.
Ah, looking back now, Sofia feels incredibly lucky.
The fact that I survived that incident and am in my current situation is entirely a blessing from God.
Because her life was always in the hands of Commander Andrei.
Whether Sofia survives depends entirely on Andrei's decision.
Of course, Sofia's eloquence also played a significant role, but Andrei was clearly not someone who could be easily swayed or persuaded by words.
He will let Sophia go, probably because he thinks she has some use to him.
Sofia was well aware of her value as a woman.
Andrei will one day order Sophia to sell her body.
Sofia's body was cheap, but she never felt inferior to anyone.
However, now that she's wearing this military uniform, she probably wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice herself if it really came down to it.
She didn't want to be forced to do certain things, but this was the path she had chosen, and she had to keep going.
But it's best to avoid this situation altogether.
Sophia is indeed a magician, and she hopes that this ability will become her greatest value.
The book Aaron gave her granted her extraordinary powers related to scrolls.
Therefore, during her spare time on the march, Sofia would carefully study this book.
At this critical juncture, Sofia had no other choice.
So much so that Sofia has been feeling a bit repressed in that area lately; well, she needs to find a time to release it.
There's no rush, considering she's the only woman in the military.
She can add a new item to her collection whenever she wants.
The army has now arrived in the southeastern state of the Federation.
Once across this region, the army will reach the border between the Federation and Swabawa.
But before that, the army will first join forces with the armies of several other states.
This means that this battle will be commanded by several commanders simultaneously.
If all the army's command battalions were combined into one place, Sofia would surely be exhausted.
She just hoped things wouldn't turn out this way.
Sofia looked up at Andrei's retreating figure.
His gaze was resolute, and his posture was upright, giving people a sense of majesty and reliability.
To be honest, Sofia is quite attracted to this kind of manly man.
If Andrei asked Sofia to spend the night with him, she would probably gladly accept.
But Sofia knew that such a thing could not happen.
He was the pillar of the entire army, and he had to remain alert and serious at all times, so he was never smiling.
Are all commanders like this?
However, Sofia, who often secretly observed Andrei, noticed that Andrei had an unfamiliar aura today.
Andrei suddenly tilted his head slightly and looked to the side.
Sofia was also able to see Andrei's profile clearly.
She saw a hint of tension and unease on Andrei's face.
What was he worried about? Sophia was puzzled.
But Sofia didn't think much of it; it wasn't something she, as the barracks assistant officer, needed to consider.
She started to have fun, seeking out those who were secretly eyeing her and throwing them flirtatious glances.
The other person immediately blushed.
Haha, these stupid and lustful men are really fun to play with!
"Waaaaah~~!"
Suddenly, a deep and loud horn sounded, and Sofia's heart tightened.
This means other troops have been detected nearby!
There shouldn't be any worries, this is federal territory!
According to Sofia's understanding, no regime on the Far East continent dares to openly stand on the other side of the Federation.
They must have discovered a friendly force; that must be it.
However, "Buzz buzz buzz~~!"
This is the second bugle call.
It signifies the discovery of the enemy.
Everyone became alert, gripping their weapons and even taking out their assigned alchemical potions.
Sofia was even more amazed.
How is that possible!
How could there be enemy troops within the territory of the Federation?
Not only did they manage to bypass the Federation's surveillance and reach the heartland, but how did they even dare to do so?!
but.-.
Then comes the third tone.
"Waaaaah~~!"
Oh my God!
This is an enemy attack!
The troops were thrown into chaos, and everyone drew their weapons.
Disordered footsteps and fearful words arose throughout the legion, flooding into Sophia's ears from all directions.
Sofia lost her composure and hurt the stallion beneath her.
This caused the horse to neigh and run wildly, almost throwing Sofia off.
Fortunately, she pulled on the reins in time to adjust, thus preventing such an outcome.
Sofia considered that even she herself should go into battle to fight the enemy.
But she didn't expect her first battle to come so suddenly; she was completely unprepared!
The cacophony grew increasingly chaotic and louder in Sofia's ears, filling her entire head cavity.
Until it grew increasingly indistinct, turning into a sharp cry—
Sofia felt like she couldn't hear anything anymore.
Her mind was also blank.
"Quiet!"
A roar louder than thunder reached Sofia's ears.
The loud noise brought Sofia back to her senses.
She then realized that it was Andrei's voice!
Sofia immediately turned her head and looked at Andrei.
Suddenly, Andrei produced a piece of parchment, held it up in front of him, and spoke to the scroll.
Then another loud explosion rang out: "Enemy attack! Do not panic! Form ranks!"
These words immediately dispelled much of the tension in the military.
The battalion commanders then began to direct their soldiers to act according to Andrei's plan.
So strong!
Even when facing enemy forces, he can remain calm and composed in the face of danger. Is this what a commander of an army should be like?
Yuan Feiya also noticed that the sheepskin in Andrei's hand seemed to be shimmering with golden light.
As Pifia's gaze fixed on it, the golden light immediately began to dance across the sheepskin—
"So that's how it is," Yuan Feiya realized. "That was a magic scroll!"
Furthermore, based on the information revealed by the texture, it should be a strong-fiber roll.
However, the light on the scroll fades quickly, indicating that the power is being lost and it will soon lose its effect.
Rollers are useful, but ultimately they are consumables.
Since Andrei also uses a scroll in battle.
This shows that Yuan Feiya has also gained greater value.
Pifia was secretly delighted; this was undoubtedly good news for her.
Hey! What are you grinning about for?!
Suddenly a sound interrupted Pifia's thoughts.
The speaker was Andrei's assistant, Igor's secretary.
Pi Fia looked at him, the man who had been intimate with her many times and played chess with her.
At this moment, he had already drawn his military knife, and in the other hand, he held a bottle of white medicine.
That was an alchemical potion, and Yuan Feiya was also given a bottle.
It's called a protective potion, and its effect is to give you exceptionally tough skin for a certain period of time.
At first, Yuan Fia was puzzled as to why the Federation's soldiers were not equipped with armor.
The Federation is not far behind the King in terms of resources, so it shouldn't be unable to afford the necessary equipment.
It wasn't until Yuan Feiya obtained the bottle of alchemical potion that she understood the reason.
This medicine can, to some extent, replace the effect of armor.
Moreover, it does not affect the body's flexibility, and its enhancement of combat power is often greater than that of armor.
Of course, alchemical potions are consumables, unlike reusable armor that can be passed down through three generations.
It seems too expensive and not practical enough.
Indeed, protective potions are not cheap.
Poison might only cost a few silver coins, but protective medicines for horses are quite expensive.
Even in the Far East, the heart of alchemy and where alchemical potions are relatively inexpensive, this is the same.
Medicines such as healing potions, remedies, and antidotes are quite expensive, and depending on their quality, a single bottle can sometimes fetch several gold coins.
While the protective potion wasn't as expensive as gold, the horse was still worth at least several large gold coins.
However, the Federation also has its own national circumstances.
Kingdoms like Judian actually had very loose political power.
Friction between the lords was constant, bandits and robbers were rampant, and various wild beasts and monsters harassed the area.
On average, a soldier needs to participate in no fewer than ten battles a year.
Moreover, large-scale, protracted wars frequently break out, making it impossible for them to bear the consumption of alchemical potions.
However, the federal security situation was surprisingly good.
Pi Fia knows this all too well; she had never dared to sleep outdoors with the theater troupe before.
The small countries of the Far East continent also dared not harass the Federation.
Therefore, unless the Federation initiates the war, there will generally be no fighting.
Even if war breaks out, the Federation's immense national strength would likely result in overwhelming dominance, preventing a protracted war of attrition.
Therefore, it would be more appropriate for the Federation to use alchemical potions!
Upon hearing Igor's suggestion, Pifia also took out a protective potion, opened the bottle, and gulped it down.
The alchemical potion has side effects, and Yuan Feiya doesn't know what effect this potion will have on her.
It's better to be a horse than to be shot to death by a hail of arrows.
Look!
From the other side of the hillside, countless arrows were already being shot at.
The arrow struck Sofia squarely in the forehead, the immense impact nearly causing her to faint.
The horse caused her immense pain, but she herself was not injured at all.
Pi Fia couldn't help but feel a chill of fear; if she had drunk it a little later, she would already be dead!
Igor angrily rebuked, "Seriously! War shows no mercy; carelessness leads to death!"
Despite Igor's fierce expression, Mafia could tell that he cared about her.
Men are always like this; once they've slept with someone, they'll always treat that person as a special someone.
Oh! Except for prostitutes!
Yuan Feiya was indeed a prostitute, but she was by no means a prostitute. She had never sold her body for a single copper coin.
"No matter what, Igor said, 'We must take this seriously.'"
Pi Fia did not draw her sword.
Instead, he took out two sheepskins.
These are two rolls.
Sofia made it herself.
Despite the power contained within the scroll, some parts were truly unbearable to look at.
A horse is far more trustworthy than her weak strength and poor swordsmanship.
At this point, the army had already formed ranks and, under Andrei's command, began a counterattack.
Countless arrows were fired from the enemy's own ranks, flying towards the enemy hiding behind the hillside.
Then the cavalry began their charge, while the infantry quickly advanced their lines.
At this point, Yuan Feiya realized that Andrei was definitely a first-rate conductor.
Faced with a surprise attack from the enemy, he was able to make timely deployments and command his troops to launch an orderly counterattack.
Yuan Feiya, of course, did not need to rush forward to engage in battle. As the assistant to Commander Ding, her duty was to stay by the command group's side and await orders.
π-Fia looked at Andrei and found that the worry on Andrei's face had vanished.
Otherwise, there is a sense of relief, as if a burden has been lifted.
Yuan Feiya couldn't understand Andrei's reaction, and just then...
Bugle calls also rang out from within the enemy ranks hidden behind the low slope.
Wow!
Wow!
Two sounds.
And its sound was even higher-pitched than our horn.
At that moment, a smile inexplicably appeared on Andrei's face.
He ordered:
"Sound the retreat!"
"withdraw troops!"
