Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 784. Soldiers on the line of death

The fishing boat Kant was on set off from the shore together with the salvage steamer to the location of the shipwreck.

The salvage work lasted from early morning to evening, but only a few uniforms of Calradian soldiers were found.

No body parts of the group were found.

After having dinner, the workers on the boat prepare to continue fishing at night.

In order to bring them a searchlight, Kant returned to the shore with Bandak.

On the second departure, a small boat docked. The Calradian soldiers on the ship walked up to Kant and reported: "Your Majesty, we found... the remains of the killed soldiers."

Kant froze when he heard the news. Responded: "Where?"

The soldier pursed his lips tightly and raised his hand to point to the small boat he was driving.

Kant stepped closer to the boat docked on the shore, and stopped after catching a glimpse of Clemont's lifeless face.

Bandak jumped up to the bow of the ship. The corpses of the Calradian soldiers were brought ashore one by one.

"Only seven of them have been found so far." The soldier reported to Kandehui.

"Now, speed up the transportation of their remains back to the country immediately." Kant ordered softly: "The funeral will be held by Yadunis who stayed in the military camp."

"Yes." The accompanying soldier agreed.

Bandak looked at the seven deceased people lying on the ground, tears already overflowing from his eyes.

The Calradian soldiers on the dock stood there, praying silently in their hearts.

The salvage work officially ended after one day and one night.

Except for the remains of the seven fallen soldiers and some relics floating on the sea, the search team found nothing.

"Your Majesty, we have completed the search for the area where fishing can be carried out." The leader of the search team reported to Kandehui.

"Yeah." Kant nodded in response.

Bandak sat aside and thought for a while, then said to Kant: "Is it possible that the remaining soldiers have escaped from the sunken ship?"

"I think so too." Kant agreed: "But in this case, we don't know where they are now."

"It was pitch black on the sea. If they only had life jackets, where could they go?" Bandak wondered.

"...I don't know." Kant shook his head and said, "But if they can go ashore, they should go to Cumberland."

"DeWitt has not been to Cumberland before," Bandak explained to Conde.

"So, where is Durandal?" Kant's eyes lit up and he said.

"That's right. In the Calradia territory close to the coast, apart from Cumberland, there is only Durandal." Bandak said: "How about letting Derrick search near Durandal City?"

"Well, let the soldiers who reported the news set off tonight. Get to Durandal this morning and let them start taking action." Kant ordered.

"yes!"

The soldiers who delivered the message rushed out of the gate of Cumberland under the cover of night. Get on the horse and rush towards Durandal.

Durandal's city gate was knocked open early in the morning.

The soldier who delivered the letter took out the medal given by Kant and said to the soldiers guarding the city: "Let me see Commander Derrick!"

Derrick's mental state has not been good in recent days. When the soldiers who delivered the message came to his tent, he was still drinking.

"What's the matter?" Derrick raised his eyes and asked.

"Commander Derrick, His Majesty Kant ordered you to organize soldiers to search outside Durandal City." The soldier said word by word: "The reconnaissance team may have fled here."

"You mean someone in the reconnaissance team escaped from the shipwreck?" Derrick suddenly raised his head and asked.

"His Majesty Kant and Commander Bandak speculated like this..." the soldier replied.

"I know." Derrick agreed: "Start taking action immediately!"

Derrick got up and walked to the training ground of the military camp, gathering the soldiers together. He said to them: "Go to the northern suburbs in a row.

The fourth and fifth companies went to the South District, and the third company went with me to the vicinity of the city gate. Everyone, please take action. Your comrades are now struggling on the edge of life and death. We are the only ones who can carry out rescue. "

"Yes! Commander!" the soldiers replied uniformly.

Because of the news that came in the past few days, the atmosphere in the Durandal military camp has always been very gloomy.

Now that everyone has seen the light, they naturally work hard to cheer up and take action.

Derrick led a whole group of men from the Third Company and rushed towards the city gate. A search began.

As time went by, the scope of the search gradually expanded.

Finally, a fainted DeWitt and his group were found at the entrance of the cave 800 meters away.

"DeWitt, DeWitt, wake up!" Derrick knelt beside DeWitt and put his hand on DeWitt's neck. After feeling the weak vibration, Derrick almost cried with excitement.

"Medicine! Come and see how they are doing!" Derrick shouted: "Come quickly and prepare the carriage and stove. We will send them back to the military camp."

After some inspections by the medical soldiers, DeWitt and his team were confirmed to be safe and sound.

There was a pile of burnt charcoal at the entrance of the cave, which seemed to have been left last night.

"If they had come a little later, they would have died like this." Derrick said sadly as he picked up a soldier's duffel bag. The duffel bags were empty, and the fleeing Calradian soldiers had really run out of ammunition and food.

"Captain Derrick, we rescued a total of fifteen Calradian soldiers. And from the nameplates on their bodies, we learned their respective identities." A soldier handed Dai a list in his hand. Rick.

"I will give this list to the soldiers who delivered the letter." Bandak took the page and said, "Your most important task now is to take care of those soldiers wholeheartedly."

"Yes, Commander." The soldier bowed and replied.

Derrick got on the carriage and returned to the military camp with the group.

The soldier who delivered the letter had been waiting at the gate of the military camp for a long time after hearing the news. After seeing his figure, Derrick immediately jumped off the carriage, walked up to him, and said, "Thank you for arriving here in time and bringing us such news and saving the lives of the soldiers in this car. .”

"I am only responsible for delivering the message. What plays a role in this whole incident is Derrick's command of your actions." The soldier took the list, glanced at it, and responded to Derrick.

"The soldiers in the southern district and northern suburbs haven't returned to the military camp yet. I wonder if they can bring some happy news." Derrick secretly looked forward to it.

"What's the news? Commander Derrick, haven't you already discovered the missing Calradian soldiers?" the soldier who sent the letter asked doubtfully.
