[Chapter 193 The Eastern Army of the Desert Kingdom]
West Wind Town, north, thirty miles.
Originally, it was a barren canyon. There was only a pitted official road passing through this canyon. This official road connected Xifeng Town and the original stone canyon, and went north all the way to the border of the crystal canyon.
Now, there is a huge army in the center of the official road, which is advancing silently to the south.
This is the eastern army of the invading army of the desert kingdom, with a strength of tens of thousands of people.
The warriors from the desert kingdom are cold and cool, and they don’t like to talk nonsense. This is a good habit they have developed in the desert. If anyone is stupid and talks nonsense in the desert, they will be killed if they fail to open their mouths. The wind blows your mouth of sand.
Under the harsh natural conditions, all the people who forged the desert kingdom have a strong heart and unyielding will.
The commander-in-chief of the East Road Army is now riding a tall camel, walking in the center of the army. Walking beside him was his lieutenant, a brave desert warrior, and his counselor, a cunning and wise shaman.
While playing with the pieces of natural crystal ore in his hand, the big shaman said to the commander-in-chief next to him: “General, the crystal canyon and the original stone canyon are rich in this kind of crystal stone. It feels really good, and it can be used to make all kinds of interesting crystals. The magic items, necklace, ring, and staff. We might as well seize these two places after the war and not return them to Mundra.” The
commander replied in a low voice: “That’s not very easy to do, we and The agreement between Mundra and the Holy See of Light is to help them defeat the Holy See of Darkness. After that, Mundra will give us a small piece of the northern mountain area, and he has not promised to cede the Crystal Canyon and the Rough Stone Canyon to us. If we want to force these two This city may be attacked by Mondra, and even the Holy See of Light will be our enemy.” The
great shaman laughed: “Listen to them!”
The commander-in-chief laughed in a low voice: “Of course, fighting such a battle is just for a little remote mountain area, isn’t that a fool? After we conquered the Crystal Canyon, we deliberately pushed south slowly, just to make Mond Ra and Elizabeth fought on the road of light for a while longer, and the strength of both sides consumed a little more. The more tragic the fight, the better. In this way, if our army occupied the crystal canyon after the war and did not return it to the victorious side of them, They may not have the strength to take it back from us.” The
great shaman nodded in agreement.
The lieutenant next to him said: “General, I am afraid that the Holy See of Light will participate in the arbitration. If the Holy See of Light arbitrates that our country should return the Crystal Canyon to the Kingdom of Gran, if we do not listen, the Holy See of Light may incite the kingdom of knights. Norma sent troops to our country.” The
commander-in-chief sneered: “Come on! Although the kingdom of knights is strong, they will send troops into our desert if they have the guts. I want to see the knights they are proud of. Can we show off our power in the desert?”
As soon as these words came out, several people couldn’t help laughing.
After laughing for a while, the lieutenant brought them back to reality: “General, the West Wind Town we are going to attack in front of us is not easy! The vanguard army suffered a defeat in West Wind Town a few days ago, and the entire army was wiped out, even Madara was killed by West Wind. The town has been captured, and our main force must also be careful not to overturn the boat in the gutter.”
Although the vanguard of the Desert Kingdom was wiped out in the battle of Xifeng Town, all the soldiers were captured by Robb, but in the distance On the top of the mountain, there were still several scouts who did not join the battle formation.
These scouts watched the entire battle from beginning to end, and hurried northward to report all the details of that battle to the commander-in-chief.
Of course, what they reported was slightly different from the real facts. For example, they reported that Robb was strong, but they couldn’t report how strong Robb was. They could only tell the commander-in-chief that Robb was A great magician with a broken leg, who has several jobs.
The commander-in-chief turned his head and glanced at the lieutenant, and asked seriously, “What do you think of West Wind Town?”
The lieutenant said: “After the vanguard army was completely destroyed, the subordinates sent scouts to stare at Xifeng Town day and night, drew a detailed map of Xifeng Town, and also sent spies to the town to inquire. Fortunately, this town does not exclude any outsiders. Our spy easily went in and walked around. He only spent fifty copper coins to buy potato chips to eat. He asked a lot of useful information from the hawker, and spent ten silver coins to buy a steamed fish to eat. I asked a lot of information from the shopkeeper, and I spent thirty silver coins to buy a cake to eat. I also asked a lot of information from the hawker. I disguised myself as an exiled nobleman, and spent fifty silver coins to rent it in West Wind Town. I stayed in a villa for one night, socialized with the exiled nobles in Xifeng Town, and got a lot of information…” The
commander said: “Wait, this report is a bit wrong, why is it spending more and more money? A lot?” The lieutenant said, “It’s okay to
spend a little bit of money in order to obtain information. Espionage is expensive.”
Of course, it costs money to defraud intelligence, but I always feel that there is something strange about it.
“There are almost no serious troops in this town.” The lieutenant said: “The core of the town is only one person, the guy in a wheelchair who has multiple functions and can use all kinds of magic. His name is Robert. , is the priest of the Guangming Church in Xifeng Town, but allows the Dark Holy See to build a church in Xifeng Town. He is a freak! According to him, this is called freedom of religion, freedom of belief… Well, in short, this person is very powerful, it is him We have supported the defense of the entire West Wind Town with one strength. If we kill him, our army will only need an instant effort to capture West Wind Town.”
“Is that so?” The commander thought about this question seriously, He smiled and said: “There is a saying in the Rabbit Kingdom of the Eastern Land Tang Dynasty, the army is attacked, the army is attacked, since the other party relies on one person to defend the town, then we don’t need to fight the siege battle in an upright manner. Send an assassination team to kill this man, so that we can get the greatest results at the least cost. Anyway, we are not in a hurry to help Mundra finish the war, are we? As for Madara, he He should pay a certain price for his defeat, so let him be a prisoner of war for a while.”
“The general is wise!” The lieutenant nodded.
“Okay, the army continues southward, and camps thirty kilometers north of Xifeng Town, and dispatches an assassination team to enter Xifeng Town disguised as a refugee, waiting for the opportunity to assassinate the guy named Robert.”
Under the wise and wise decision of the commander-in-chief, The army of the Desert Kingdom found a river 30 miles north of Xifeng Town, and set up a large camp by the river, while an elite assassination team of 15 people left the camp and came towards Xifeng Town.
