By the bonfire, soldiers sat around as one of them stood up excitedly to recount his past battle experiences. His voice echoed through the night sky, drawing the attention of the other soldiers. He described a fierce battle where they faced a numerical disadvantage against the Rebels.
"It was a magnificent battle," he exclaimed, gesturing vividly to depict the scene, "Our troops charged forward and stormed the enemy camp. They outnumbered us, but we had no fear, for we bore the glory of the Roman soldier."
The soldiers listened quietly, their eyes reflecting the flickering of the fire. The speaker continued, "We bravely fought the enemy, our swords and shields shining on their battlefield. However, courage and strength alone were not enough. The battle was cruel and unforgiving, and many of our comrades bravely sacrificed themselves."
His voice carried deep emotion, recalling the difficult moments on the battlefield. His words revealed respect and sorrow for the fallen comrades: "We fought for Rome, we fought for glory, but in that moment, we also saw the true cost of war. My comrades, one by one, fell, their courage and sacrifice forever etched in my heart."
At this moment, another soldier unsteadily raised his cup and half-jokingly, half-seriously asked, "Hey! While your teammates are bravely fighting the enemy to the last moment, why are you still here?" His words piqued the interest of several others, who joined in, curiously looking at the soldier telling the story.
The storyteller revealed a mysterious and profound smile, and slowly responded, "Wait, my story isn't finished yet." His tone carried a vague sense of anticipation, as if the next part of the story would be even more exciting.
The soldiers' curiosity was aroused, and they waited in silence, the atmosphere filled with anticipation. The storyteller took a sip of wine, cleared his throat, and prepared to continue his story.
Under the gaze of everyone, the soldier immersed himself in his memories. A proud smile appeared on his face, and his tone became more resolute: "That day, the battle was unusually intense. We were surrounded by Rebels, in a desperate situation. But I, as a Roman soldier, would never allow myself to be defeated like that."
His hand tightened around the wine glass, as if he were holding a long spear. He continued to recount, "In that smoke-filled battlefield, I wielded a long spear, charging in and out like a cheetah in a storm. The rebels were afraid when they saw me, intimidated by my courage, and for a moment, none dared to approach."
His eyes flickered with the fire of the battlefield, as if he had returned to the intense combat. "In the chaos, I noticed our captain being surrounded by several enemies. Without hesitation, I rushed over, killing the enemies while shielding the captain behind me. My long spear was like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, and the rebels only dared to watch from afar, not daring to approach easily."
His narrative was thrilling, and the atmosphere inside the tent was ignited by his story: "Our team, led by me, fought our way out of the encirclement. The Rebels were all in awe when they saw us, and their power seemed as fragile as paper in front of our courage."
In his description, the battle came to life, and his comrades were captivated by his story, looking at him with admiration. The storyteller finished his story with a proud smile. His comrades applauded and cheered for his heroic skills and fearless spirit.
The soldier spoke again, his voice filled with exaggerated pride: "Wait, you haven't heard the whole story yet. When those Rebels saw me wielding a long spear and charging into their camp like a fierce tiger, they were terrified. I fought my way in and out of the enemy camp, like a legendary war god, unstoppable."
He took a breath and continued, "It seemed like my long spear had a magical power, hitting the enemy's vital points accurately every time I thrust. I moved around like the wind, sometimes even feeling like I was dancing in the air, evading the enemy's attacks. By sunrise, many of my comrades had fallen, but I stood strong."
"When the enemy leader saw this scene, he was horrified and ordered a retreat. I stood alone on the battlefield, surrounded by fallen enemies. My long spear was stained red with blood, like a symbol of the war god," he said, his eyes shimmering with a hint of self-indulgence.
The soldier continued the story with a heavy voice, "As the morning sunlight bathed the earth once again, bringing a new day, I was surrounded by fallen comrades and countless enemies. That battle was like a nightmare, and the bravery and tragedy within it were vividly highlighted in the first rays of sunlight."
The story finished, and suddenly there was a moment of silence inside the tent. Everyone was shaken by the words for a moment, and then suddenly a soldier stood up, raised his cup, and loudly said to the storyteller, "Damn it, that's nonsense! Do you think we're three-year-old kids?" Then he threw the cup in his direction.
At that moment, there was a burst of hearty laughter inside the tent. The other soldiers joined in the mockery, teasing the storyteller. The atmosphere became light and cheerful, and everyone forgot about the heaviness of the battlefield, leaving only the laughter and jokes among brothers.
Cyrus looked at the scene and couldn't help but smile. In this brief moment of joy, he felt the deep friendship among his comrades and the cohesion of the team. His mood also relaxed with everyone's laughter, temporarily forgetting the pressure of the battlefield and the shadow of killing.
