"Reporting to General Qin, apart from myself and a dozen or so survivors, the rest of our vanguard troops were annihilated by the enemy!" a scout with a blood-stained face reported.

His voice was hoarse with exhaustion. His body was covered in dried bloodstains on his tattered armor.

Qin Liangyu frowned and remained silent.

"Are you sure the message wasn't misrepresented?" Sun Yang, the deputy general, looked incredulous.

It should be noted that since following Qin Liangyu into Liangzhou, they have been conquering cities and seizing territory with overwhelming force, and have never been defeated!

This female general was not only formidable in martial arts, but also possessed extraordinary ability to lead troops into battle.

It could be said that Sun Yang once thought she was comparable to Lin Wenzhong.

But at this very moment, the scouts say that the vanguard she sent out has been completely annihilated by the enemy.

The enemy's main force has been defeated and is fleeing northward.

Why did they suddenly launch a counterattack and wipe out the Great Xia vanguard?

"Tell me in more detail!" Sun Yang couldn't help but press, "What exactly happened? Whose troops are they? How many are there?"

"Reporting to General Sun, this humble servant...this humble servant is not quite sure!" the scout said. "They appeared too suddenly; our army was completely unprepared! However, it is certain that this force does not belong to the rebel Huo Minggao, nor does it belong to the Northern Barbarians!"

"What?" Sun Yang was shocked. "How many did you actually see? What kind of troops were they? Cavalry? Infantry? Archers?"

“Infantry!” the scout replied. “A very strange infantry unit!”

"How is it strange?"

"They were extremely tall and strong, and they did not wear any armor, but only animal skins. Their weapons were axes and round wooden shields!"

Moreover, each of these people was covered in strange and unusual paint, and had very long hair and beards.

Also, their hair and beards are all golden!

Sun Yang, “???”

"Isn't this the image of a savage?" he thought to himself.

"You were defeated by such a rabble?" Sun Yang couldn't help but curse. "And they outnumbered you?"

Aside from their absolute numerical disadvantage, Sun Yang believed that such a savage force could not possibly defeat the elite soldiers of the Great Xia.

“No…no!” the scout replied, “They number less than a thousand!”

Everyone was shocked by these words.

"A thousand-strong savage army actually annihilated a Great Xia vanguard army three times their size?"

With such a record, could the enemy general be Bai Qi?

"Any information about the enemy commander?"

The servant shook his head. “We don’t understand their language,” he said. “They just usually shout a slogan when they fight.”

"What slogan?"

Valhalla!

Qin Liangyu, "!!!"

~~~

Dongpango at this time.

Lin Mo, who had already emerged from the illusory realm, was frowning.

Looking at the urgent military intelligence report in his hand, he suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.

The military intelligence letter was urgently delivered by Qin Liangyu to Yao Guangxiao in the capital. Seeing the seriousness of the situation, Yao Guangxiao immediately handed it over to Xu Chu.

Some time ago, Xu Chu wrote a letter to Yao Guangxiao, informing him of Lin Mo's appearance in Dongpange.

Without a second thought, Xu Chu personally went to Sanjo Castle and delivered the letter to Lin Mo.

After all this back and forth, this military intelligence letter must have been sent ten days ago.

The contents of the letter shocked Lin Mo.

"Wearing a bearskin, with golden hair and a long beard, wielding a round shield and battle axe, and he even knows how to shout Valhalla!"

"Isn't this just a Viking berserker from Earth?"

That's incredibly strange. There are Vikings in this world?

Moreover, they've joined forces with the Northern Barbarians?

What's even more shocking is how they suddenly appeared in Liangzhou?

Can the dragon-headed warship now travel on land?

At this moment, the only explanation Lin Mo could think of was...

"Is there another system awakener?"

"And then this guy used the system to exchange for a Viking Berserker?"

Although Qin Liangyu was strong, the soldiers of the Great Xia were also skilled in battle.

But it's really tough to deal with Viking berserkers!

What troubled Lin Mo even more was...

Because Lin Mo had lingered in the illusory realm for too long last time, Zhao Wushi said that he needed to prohibit Lin Mo from entering for a short period of time.

Therefore, Lin Mo didn't even have anyone to consult about this matter!

As for Xiang Yu, ever since he left the illusory realm, he has been brainwashed by the system again and turned into a demonic Xiang Yu who only obeys Lin Mo!

"Should I continue to the Forbidden Sea or go back to support the front lines?" Lin Mo began to struggle with this question.

He had already found the nautical chart left by Zhao Wushi in the library.

That's why the servant of the god couldn't contain himself and rushed out to attack Lin Mo.

As for the thing Xiang Yu was talking about, the two of them started playing cryptic again.

No matter how Lin Mo asked, he only said one thing: "You'll know when you get to the Forbidden Sea."

Yes, to explain computers to Xiang Yu, you have to demonstrate them with a physical object.

This made Lin Mo's scalp tingle.

At this moment, for some reason, Lin Mo had a vague premonition: "Could this be the work of those divine servants?"

To incentivize me to continue using the system?

In order to steer my actions onto the "right track" they expect?

Based on this analysis, besides the Viking berserkers who appeared in Liangzhou...

Will other Earth-specific unit types appear in Xichuan City, which is guarded by Bai Qi in Shu?

The Chuz people are very similar to the Persians on Earth. Will elephant soldiers also appear?

The Arab world, and the Arab world again.

Are there also Templar Knights who spend their entire lives killing people for God?

"My goodness, this game is getting more and more exciting!" Lin Mo couldn't help but think.

Seeing the bitter look on Lin Mo's face, Xu Chu couldn't help but ask, "My lord, what should we do now?"

It would have been better if he hadn't asked; once he did, Lin Mo was practically cracking with rage.

"Xu Chu, take all the troops and return to the capital first. Then have Yao Guangxiao recruit soldiers to support Qin Liangyu!" Lin Mo announced after thinking for a long time. "Remember, you are the deputy general, and Qin Liangyu is the commander-in-chief!"

"Yes, my lord!" Xu Chu replied. "And you? Are you going to Shu to support Bai Qi?"

"Silly boy, you thought of that too?" Lin Mo asked in surprise.

"Hmm!" Xu Chu said, "Although I myself don't know how this idea came about, I have a feeling that Qiu Zi in Shu and the Arab coalition will definitely send reinforcements."

Moreover, they will be an extremely formidable elite force!

Lin Mo shook his head, "There might even be famous generals from foreign history among them!"

"Xu Chu, I have more important matters to attend to!" Lin Mo replied. "After I finish these matters, I will go to Liangzhou immediately to support you!"

"Very well!" Xu Chu said, "I trust you with your affairs, my lord!"

After Xu Chu left, Lin Mo couldn't help but take a deep breath. "The Forbidden Sea, all the answers lie there!" he thought. "Once the Divine Servant is dealt with, everything will be resolved!"
