Winner Takes All novel Chapter 951

The imposing squad raced over.

The battle horses trampled on the streets, the metallic and crisp sounds could be heard from their hooves.

Galloping majestically, full of force.

Jack and the others also saw the ‘large-scale’ unit.

“What mission are they executing?”

Jack was puzzled.

At the side, Debut and Yarol were also curious.

“It looks like a battalion of five hundred soldiers. This must be an important mission.”

“If it's a battalion, it must be about some capture and killing mission."

However.

Achilles shook his head and laughed lightly, “This is only a scout and patrol squad.”

What?!

Jack and the two others looked at Achilles dumbfoundedly.

Achilles raised his hand and pointed at the huge battalion. "You just joined the Dragon Cavalry, so you are not sure about the details. Depending on the mission, the soldiers will show different expressions. The battle horses galloping speed will differ too. If it is really something related to capture and killing, the horses will be galloping thunderously without leaving any traces. Not like now, the horses are marching uniformly."

"Only on a safe mission like the scout and patrol, they could remain composed and have the leisure to maintain their formation."

Jack and the two others suddenly understood.

The next second.

The large battalion marched majestically and arrived in front of the western city gates.

Holmes ordered the battalion to stop. Then. He rode his horse and went through the handover procedure with the city gates garrison officer.

During that time.

The battalion of five hundred soldiers remained silent.

Whether it was the soldiers or their horses, they all remained in extreme silence.

Just from this point alone, you could show the military qualities of the Dragon Cavalry.

"If they need to deploy a battalion of five hundred soldiers to execute a scout and patrol mission, it means that the situation is not so good!"

Debut told Jack and the others in a faint voice.

Jack and Yarol nodded their heads.

Since they joined the Dragon Cavalry, they had already executed the scout and patrol mission twice, and both times were perilous. But that being said, it was common to have a five-man squad execute the scout and patrol mission. And to deploy a battalion to act as a scout and patrol unit, the number of soldiers in it was already a hundred times more than the normal squad.

"Nowadays, the snowfields are simmering with danger. Plus, now we are in the season of deep winter. During this time, the polar night will appear, and the foreign tribes will sure come out and find trouble. Therefore, the deployment of a larger battalion for the scout and patrol unit is a necessity."

Achilles' gaze deepened. Compared to Jack and the others, he was the former Chief Guard, therefore he knew a lot more about the northern region.

After they heard what Achilles had said.

Debut and Yarol both nodded.

However, Jack frowned solemnly, thinking in his mind.

If they suddenly increase the scales of the scout and patrol units, maybe it was related to the polar nights. But the main reason must be due to the appearance of the Coalition Order that had suddenly caused the snow plains to be in simmering chaos right now.

“Safe trip!”

After the handover procedure was done, the city gates garrison officer saluted Holmes.

He saluted back, rode his battle horse, and waved his right hand. "Forward!"

Rumble…

The massive troop of soldiers went out of the city.

Compared to when they had just arrived at the western city gates, they were moving even faster now.

Holmes got out of the Thegiant city first. His battle horse led ahead, rushing through everyone.

And the troops behind him followed through.

"Let's go, we can only have some more leisure time for two more days. After that, I think we will have to follow another battalion for the scout and patrol mission."

Achilles shrugged and intended to leave with Jack and the others.

However, at this moment.

“Wait!”

Jack accidentally caught a glimpse at the scout and patrol unit. Then, his pupils shrank to an extend and pulled Achilles. "Isn't that Shawn?"
