บท 1228: The Older Brother Fights, The Younger Brother Retreats

Koa Short shouldered the flag, his eyes ablaze with determination to the point of sacrificing himself. 

Disregarding the aborigine martial artists, he charged directly, as wherever his flag went, Hansworth men followed.

Hundreds of thousands of martial artists trailed behind the flag, understanding that while men could fall, banners could not. 

The flag represented the soul of the army, an unyielding spirit. 

Koa knew the perilous nature of being a flag bearer, with a death rate exceeding 90%. 

Yet, carrying the flag was everyone's goal, as its presence bolstered morale significantly.

Sorrell Neal, surrounded and wielding a black spear, saw the reinforcements on both sides and roared defiantly, "Kill them!" 

The commanding roar echoed, lifting the spirits of those on the battlefield. 

Sorrell wanted everyone to know he was still in the fight, the commander enduring a bloody battle.
