Chapter 55 【Glory of Glory】
In addition to the official designation of the Thirteenth Cavalry Regiment of the Byzantine Empire, it also has a special name "Wickilatio", "Wickilatio (Note 1, see the end of this page)" in the ancient Byzantine language It means "mighty knight".
In the Byzantine Empire, only cavalry units with outstanding military achievements would be eligible for this alias.
And the 13th Cavalry Regiment really deserves this glorious title.
In the history of the Byzantine Empire, the Thirteenth Cavalry Regiment also has a prominent and glorious history of war. It is a veritable elite army of the Byzantine Empire.
Its predecessor was called the "Rodriatic Cavalry Regiment." Its history can be traced back to the period of the Sixth Patriotic War of the Byzantine Empire two hundred years ago. At that time, the emperor Oulius the Emperor in order to calm the rebellion, The Delia region called for the local knights to form a cavalry regiment, and immediately made great achievements in the Patriotic War. During the Southern and Northern Wars, it quelled six rebellions and repelled nine Odin invasions. The Rhoderian nature and blood are immersed in the characteristics of warlike blood, brave and tenacious in combat. In the Sixth Patriotic War, this cavalry regiment created all the troops since the founding of the Byzantine Empire. One record: After sixty-four battles, no one has retreated! !! (At this point, none of the Byzantine forces can do it. Even the prominent Palace Guards have records of defeat and escape.)
At that time, the establishment of the Rhodes Cavalry Regiment consisted of only two thousand people. However, the two thousand cavalry from the Rhodes region seemed very special at the time. When the cavalry charged, they used to use a special Four meters long rifle, holding up a large oval giant shield body-only people from Rhoderia region can use this heavy weapon with excellent and strong physical fitness, they are fierce when charging No fear of death, never flinch.
It is worth mentioning that during the Patriotic War experienced by the Rodrion Cavalry Regiment, their 64 battles never retreated, of which 13 were almost completely killed by the entire army, but still not. Back!
A slogan of the Rodría Cavalry Regiment once discolored all Byzantine soldiers!
"Go forward, or die !!"
This is not a general slogan. Everyone in this unit, from officers to soldiers, uses blood and life, which proves the authenticity of this slogan to the world!
After a **** baptism, the army's soul became more and more tenacious, even if the cavalry regiment was destroyed in a fierce battle once and for all, the rulers later would not be at all Hesitate to rebuild it again and again! Because even the ruler of the idiot understands how precious such an iron army that is baptized with blood is for the empire!
After the end of the Sixth Patriotic War, the Rhoderian Cavalry Regiment changed from a temporary conscript to a regular army, and was officially included in the regular army sequence of the Byzantine Empire. The establishment has also been expanded to 12,000 people, and this establishment has continued to this day.
In the more than 200 years since the establishment of the army, along with the changes in the empire's territory, political changes, and ethnic migration, the former Rodria area has become a sparsely deserted place. The original sturdy Rodrie The Asians, the traditional pure Rhodesians, no longer exist, and they have completely melted into every corner of the Byzantine Empire, and have become a drop of water in the sea.
But the 13th Cavalry Regiment still retains the iron spirit of the most traditional Rhoderian Cavalry Regiment.
"Go forward, or die!"
The soldiers of the 13th Cavalry Regiment of all generations and generations have defended this glorious slogan with blood. For more than 200 years, this Cavalry Regiment has been stationed in the southern part of the Empire's Inland Sea. The western part of the empire resisted the aggression of the nomads and participated in the battles with the Odin Empire on the northern border. Any commander would not hesitate to put it on the hardest and hardest front and fight the hardest battle. The hardest bone.
Even in the face of the Odin savage warrior, the soldiers of the 13th Cavalry Regiment never took a step back.
Therefore, the Thirteenth Cavalry Regiment also set a record in the history of the Imperial Army: they are the army with the largest percentage of damage in previous battles, and they are also the ones with the most reconstructions.
And ... still ... zero back-off record!
Of course, there is another record: as if it is the soul of this army, two hundred years ago, it was injected with the brave and aggressive nature of the Rhoderians. This cavalry regiment will always be in the Imperial Army. The thorny head, and its successive commanders are similar to madmen or madmen.
Even if the Imperial Army occasionally constrains this army, it sends some military officers that it considers to be "stable" and "sophisticated" officers to take charge of this army, but the magic is that once those officers have arrived in this army, they will soon be This army was assimilated, and then calm and experienced people became madmen.
Once, the military sent a new commander to this cavalry regiment. The young general was born of aristocracy, a well-known gentleman in the royal city, and he was extraordinary. However, after the aristocracy arrived in the Thirteenth Cavalry Regiment, in less than three months, the first thing that made the military department focus on "merit" was to lead a group of subordinates in order to **** the allocated military funds and treat the friendly forces. His camp was burned to ruins, and without trial, several corrupt logistic officers identified by him were directly executed. Since then, he has repeatedly violated the imperial military law because of fighting, fighting, guarding, etc., and has become the number one madman with headaches in the military.
将 The general later became a lieutenant general and was the highest governor of a military district in the Empire. He recalled that when he was the commander of the 13th Cavalry Regiment, he said something:
"As long as you come to this unit, you will feel that its fighting spirit is everywhere! In this case, you have only two choices, either get out of the way! Or, become a part of them! And I ’m lucky, I chose the latter. "
All subsequent commanders of the Thirteenth Cavalry Regiment took the words of the predecessor as their motto. And the Thirteenth Cavalry Regiment has never had an obedient general. In the records of the imperial army law department, it will always be ranked first ...

Xia Ya left with General Adrik and he went back home. General Adric left Kevin, who was playing with Xia, to wait for him, and then took him back to the barracks.
Xia ’s baggage is very simple. He took a bag of gold coins, folded a dragon skin on the bottom of the bag, and pressed several dragon scales on it. Of course, the big killer fire fork was still stuck in his waist. He ran to Houshan and took a horse. He explained to the goblin: Lao Tzu went to the army and took care of him at home. Then he left.
Along the way, that Kevin did not show hostility towards Charlie, although the two had fought hard. This guy took off the face-covered helmet and revealed a bare, shiny head, which made Charya look amazing.
Kai Wensheng was not ugly, with thick eyebrows, tall and straight, strong and strong arms, but shaved his hair, and the huge and bright head seemed to be a little bit shy.
For the first time Charya joined the army, it seemed that he was very curious about everything, and Kevin also seriously explained some things to Charya, especially the brief introduction of the deeds of the 13th Cavalry Regiment, with no concealment in his tone. proud.
After Xia Ya heard it, she couldn't help sighing: "Too great! Go ahead, UU read www.uukanshu.com or die. Really **** kind!"
His temperament and his age naturally admire heroes. It is also the age at which he is most enthusiastic. After hearing this, he couldn't help but yearn for it.
I thought for a moment, looked at Kevin's bald head, and suddenly couldn't help but said, "That ... Kevin, why is your head ..."
Kevin Kai glanced at him, and snorted airily: "On the battlefield, it is easy to be injured by bows and arrows, shaved hair, and if it hurts his head or face, it is more convenient to bandage medicine."
Xia Xia nodded again and again.
Suddenly, I had a wretched thought in my heart: I could easily hurt my head ... So what should I do? And if the thigh is hurt ... Shave all the hair on that place?
I thought of this, and subconsciously glanced at that place in Kevin's place.

(Note 1: In real history, Wicksilatio does not mean “magnificent knight”, which has the praise, but simply means “cavalry.” Byzantine military system has been shown in the history under investigation. Here, the cavalry regiment is also called "Wickelatio-Palatina", and Palatina refers to the preparation of the Guards Corps (Brigade, Brigade). Here the novelist wrote and modified for the needs of the story. Wang Daren smiled.)
[Also PS: Byzantium in the book and Byzantium in real history are naturally not a matter of time, but in the description, some polities and military systems will be used for reference.-When I wrote this book, I still did Some homework, hehe. 】
