Heroes of The Sky – Chapter 0407

People tended to get fatigued very easily when fighting a battle. On the battlefield, one couldn’t sleep in peace, and only true warriors could endure such mental exhaustion.

As the third night approached, Scott ordered a firearms inspection while he gave everyone a pep talk. “I want all of you to fill your magazines to full. We’ll be putting an end to this battle tonight. I know you’re all exhausted...”

“We aren’t, Captain.” Ned chuckled and said, “Milo has been forging a safe path forward for us on the front lines all this while, and we’re just here acting as his support, so we don’t feel tired at all.”

Scott was speaking his most commonly used lines to motivate the troops before the final battle. Essentially, the closing stages of a battle was when it would get most dangerous, so he was hoping to lift the spirits of his troops and let them face the fight in tiptop condition.

He was never one to be good at giving pep talks. Therefore, he thought it would be better to speak while everyone was resting. But in the end, it turned out to be totally unnecessary.
