Chapter 701: Seize the Opportunity

After Hubble's reply, the headquarters responded soon.

"Be sure to persist and allow failure."

Obviously, the headquarters knew the specific situation on the front line.

They did not issue unreasonable orders.

Even if they failed to hold on in the end, they would still recognize Hubble's credit.

This is war, failure does not mean no credit.

Buying time is also extremely valuable.

Hubble breathed a sigh of relief, so his pressure was much less.

Back to the front line, the opposite side launched a new round of attacks.

Several old sergeants were commanding on the front line, and the flustered recruits were shooting under the leadership of the backbone.

As long as they could survive, they would soon become veterans.

War is definitely the fastest way to train soldiers, provided that you can survive.

"Mr. Knight, how long does the headquarters say it will take for reinforcements?"

An old sergeant asked during the break, his expression was very relaxed, and it was obvious that he had seen many such scenes.

The fact that there were no large-scale wars in the Great Xia Empire did not mean that there were no wars.

In fact, various small-scale battles continued.

These old sergeants have experienced a lot, so they are indifferent.

Hubble did not hide the truth and told the truth directly: "There will be no reinforcements for the time being. The enemy has launched a large-scale infiltration operation. We need to hold on, the longer the better."

The old sergeant looked at Hubble with a complicated look, as if he guessed something.

"Don't worry, this is not a situation where death is inevitable, and I am willing to pay out of my own pocket, regardless of victory or defeat... The dead can get five times the pension at one time, and I will never treat my brothers unfairly." Hubble promised in time.

The old sergeant took out a cigarette and lit it. He was willing to accept a high salary just for money.

Fortunately, this is a militia, otherwise Hubble's promise would definitely be invalid.

"If the money is enough, it is not a problem to sell your life." The old sergeant did not mind being used by others, as long as the price was enough.

He wanted people to sell their lives, but was unwilling to pay, and only wanted to bind them with feelings. That's called a bastard.

Several old sergeants soon knew the news, and the temporary officers, although they knew the bad news, had good morale.

"Brothers, hold on."

...

In the command center in the rear, Qin heard Hubble's name seriously for the first time.

This was not mentioned casually several times before, either by Franz's recommendation or Liszt's casual mention of such a person.

This was the first time he was presented to Qin as a formal officer, and this was the meaning of adventure.

As an outsider, if you want to get an opportunity, you have to work a hundred times harder than those in the circle.

If you dare to fight, you also need people who are willing to support you, and a little bit of luck.

There are always many reasons behind the success, but everyone seems to only see his ordinariness.

"Hubble, I remember he was a newly promoted knight," Qin recalled Franz's recommendation and gave affirmation: "Now it seems that he is willing to fight and has a lot of ideas."

It's not afraid to have ambition. If there is no ambition, where would the Great Xia Empire be today?

It is the ambition of countless people that has made today's glory.

Otherwise, even if you have a golden finger, everyone will lie flat, and you will be dumbfounded.

When Franz heard this, he did not miss the opportunity and continued to promote: "I have known Hubble for a long time. He was born in a low family, and his vision and pattern are a little worse, but his loyalty, courage and bravery are definitely not worse than others.

It just so happens that the empire also needs an object of propaganda, so I gave him a chance. I didn't expect this kid to be so competitive."

Qin didn't care about Franz's little thoughts. Who doesn't have the idea of ​​forming a clique?

He nodded as a reply. At this time, many red dots were marked on the map behind him.

There were more than a dozen red dots, big and small, not too many, but not too few.

But the fatal thing is that these red dots are all in the back.

"Look, what is the other party's goal?"

Qin didn't finish speaking. What he wanted to ask was whether Fernandez I's target was himself.

Hans had been watching for a while, so he was able to give an answer: "It should be to destroy our rear facilities and resources, cause chaos, and reduce the pressure and war potential on the front line.

From the distribution point of view, they are all aimed at important resources and population gathering points.

And they did not deliberately avoid our location, and there is no possibility of linkage."

If they did not avoid, it means there is no intentional concealment.

If there is no linkage, then it is not aimed at me.

At least, there should be no traitor.

Qin also had a similar idea. He did not doubt that Fernandez I might have a big move.

"As expected, he is an old general who has been defeated repeatedly. Anyone who underestimates this Fernandez I will definitely suffer a big loss."

Qin was relieved, and the conspiracy that was discovered was not so terrible.

The specific counterattack plan does not require their participation. Just follow the steps and prioritize.

What Hubble did not know was that even if he did not take the initiative to mention it, he would not be the first to be rescued.

For the Great Xia Empire, population is the most important wealth.

And from the perspective of public opinion, Qin would not do anything to protect the mines and give up the population.

So Franz specifically said that he lacked vision and perspective, just to defend him and exclude the possibility of deliberate showmanship.

In this regard, Franz is a veteran, while Hubble was a little stunned.

However, this kind of political novice is where his value lies.

If it were a noble son, Franz would not support him so strongly, otherwise he would turn around and set up his own business, wouldn't he be a fool?

Only with Hubble's background, even if he wanted to change his allegiance, no one would give him better conditions.

Sometimes, birth is a hurdle. It's not that the upper nobles are blind and can't see the cost-effectiveness.

It's just that compared with the value of the noble elite, Hubble is insignificant.

The nobles' subordinates are mainly noble elites, how could they give up everyone for one person.

In other words, Franz doesn't care, anyway, he is not afraid of being laughed at.

Hubble only thought right about one thing, that is... when the opportunity comes, you must seize it, even if it means risking your life.

Because not everyone has a desperate plan.

This is the cruelest reality, your life is worthless.

If you want to sell your life, it depends on whether there is anyone willing to accept it.

This is that little bit of luck. If he hadn't joined Franz's guards that year, he would definitely still be a scum struggling at the bottom.

This time when he joined the militia, he was a temporary officer who could be sacrificed at the bottom. How could he have the opportunity now?

Hubble didn't know the opportunities behind these. He only knew that he had to grit his teeth and persevere.

"Are these black guys crazy? They're still attacking after dark?"

Hubble's lips were dry and peeling, but he still didn't have time to drink a sip of water.

The intensity of the battle was beyond his imagination.
