The Return of the Eternal Hero
Meaning of Name Leonhart - Chapter 13

Archduke Leonhart, March 8, 537

The place where Leonhart's troops used as headquarters was adjacent to a village still in Leonhart's possession

The village itself is not a native village but a special place made to spy on the border disguised as a village

In every corner of the Leonhart border there are villages like this that are made as a place of defense if something suspicious enters the Leonhart area

These villages can also be said to be monitoring places that monitor anyone who tries to enter Leonhart territory and as a place of defense that can move quickly if something happens

Because usually when someone tries to enter an area that they do not recognize, they will stop by the village they first saw to collect information about the area they want to enter

If they did not stop by at least they would definitely be seen by soldiers disguised as villagers

That way they could ascertain whether the person who entered Leonhart's territory was dangerous or not

In addition, these villages also turned out to be quite helpful to them when in a state of war like this

Because they can disguise soldiers as villagers and can care for those who are injured in the village easily without having to worry if the enemy attacks the defense headquarters

And also supplies such as water needed by soldiers can also be obtained from wells that have been dug in the village

This is very useful because bringing water supplies to the battlefield is actually very difficult

If they want to not bother with the water problem, an army must find a defense base that is close enough to a river or lake so that they do not have difficulty accessing water

But because they have a priority to set up a defense headquarters in a strategic place makes it difficult for them to find water

And this made the soldiers have to travel a long way to bring a few buckets of water for their use

Because it is difficult to find a strategic place that is close enough to the water source, usually if a strategic place is close to the source ai they will say that "Goddess luck has been with us" they feel they will win the war

But this problem was successfully solved by Leonhart by establishing a disguise village even though it was not inadvertently

In addition, it is also effective for them to get water but it only applies if the war is in Leonhart because if they are the attacking party and the war occurs in enemy territory they also need to find a source of water

'If there are no problems on supplies like food and drink as well as weapons and armor but look at these faces of theirs!'

The health of the soldiers was not bad other than that their equipment could also be said to be quite good but their morale was really alarming

'Yes, it's only natural that they were daunted after losing the war commander and also the reinforcements that I brought were only 100 soldiers'

When Alaric came with the soldiers who were quite few it made the other soldiers who saw him could not hide their disappointment

The reinforcements they hoped would win the war but that hope was lost because it did not match what they thought

"Hear my soldiers! I know you're tired, you're worried, you're desperate... But lift up your sword one more time for Leonhart for the glory of Leonhart...."

Realizing that, Alaric realized that it was difficult to restore the spirit of the soldiers who had lost

Although he himself believed that he could win the war alone, he did not like to walk with soldiers who lost their spirit

"Look at Leonhart's flag!"

Alaric said as he pointed at the Leonhart Flag they were displaying at the top of the tent, The flag of Leonhart is a large shield with two crossed swords and on the inside of the image is the head of a lion with its claws clutching the taste buds

"Look at the shield and the sword, that's you!"

The soldiers did not understand what Alaric was saying because to them the shield and sword was more like depicting Leonhart's invincible strength as it was strong in both attack and defense

But Alaric sees it differently

"Look at the figure of the lion hiding behind the Shield, See how the swords are also protecting the lion, That is you... The shield and the sword symbolize you soldiers who continue to protect Leonhart... That's why I thank you for your struggle"

Alaric's words managed to make the soldiers a little more moved because what Alaric said made the soldiers more aware of their high value to Leonhart

In addition to the additional thanks from Alaric make the soldiers feel their struggle is more appreciated

'A little extra yeah'

Although the soldiers had begun to move but still for Alaric it was still not enough because he wanted the soldiers who advanced into the battlefield with a burning spirit

"And to appreciate your struggle I Alaric Leonhart promised by the name of Leonhart and under the banner of Leonhart will give 30 gold coins to all the soldiers who advanced in this battlefield!—"

"Wooaaa"

"30 gold coins"

"Truly 30 gold coins"

The soldiers became very excited because the amount of 50 gold coins was not small even it could be said to be very much because 5 gold coins alone was enough to meet the needs of a family of 5 members

"—In addition to appreciating those who have been killed on the battlefield, I Alaric Leonhart will give 100 gold coins to their families and to those who have wives and children I will also bear all the needs of their wives and children until all their children mature and can make money on my own and of course I will also give 100 gold coins to their wives and children "

The soldiers this time were really touched because not only were the survivors given the advantage but even those who were killed were the same, this made them very excited

Moreover, in the last war there were about 2 thousand soldiers killed and Alaric would spend a lot of money for them because other than he had to give 100 gold coins to their families and if the soldiers it had a wife and child Alaric would also give 100 gold coins to their wife and child besides he would also bear all the needs of their wife and child until their whole child was grown up and can make your own money

"Therefore once again lift up your swords and shields for the glory of Leonhart!!"

"For the Success of Leonhart!!"

The cry of all the soldiers who were completely burned with spirit by Alaric's words sounded so loud that Marquis Bargos and his army who were preparing to fight could hear it
