These mercenaries have no concept of loyalty; feeling that their leader is unreliable, they began to consider leaving.
However, this is just a thought for now. Unless the young commander does something unreliable again, they won't leave immediately.
The group walked for a long time, until dawn the next day. They were all quite tired, so they prepared to rest.
But just as they set up camp, the earth trembled.
The young battalion commander froze as he was biting into his bread, then quickly turned and gazed into the distance.
A large army was charging in, with nearly a hundred figures in the sky. The two leading figures came into his view.
They are General Iba and General Rose, respectively.
The Purple Fire Mercenary Group is a prime target right now, and the young leader naturally realized this as well, so he traveled through the night to get back to his base camp as soon as possible.
But to my surprise, they reacted so quickly.
And such a large-scale troop deployment!
A chill ran through him; he knew he was finished, and without even turning around, he knew the mercenaries had already begun to scatter and flee.
He roared suddenly, his eyes bloodshot, his voice booming with battle qi: "You caught up with us so quickly, you must have set off in the middle of the night, right?"
"I just want to know, who reacted so quickly?"
General Rose had already arrived, and upon hearing his question, she made no attempt to conceal the truth about the black dragon: "The black dragon from Lily Territory gave us the idea!"
The young regimental commander's pupils contracted, and a thousand grass mud horses galloped through his mind.
He hadn't even started retaliating yet, and this dragon had already begun to eradicate him completely?
"asshole!"
He roared, unleashing his aura, and led his trusted followers into a fierce battle, determined to carve a bloody path through the enemy lines.
General Rose greeted him and said to General Iba, "Go to their headquarters. They should have the resources we need there. Things will be much easier from now on!"
General Iba nodded and led his soldiers past the mercenaries, heading straight for the Purple Fire Mercenary Group's headquarters further away.
On the other side, a dragon followed the old steward toward Lily Territory, glancing back in that direction from afar.
We still lost money this time!
Su Qing sighed. He should have been the one to harvest the resources stockpiled by the Purple Fire Mercenary Group, but unfortunately, it was too far away, and he might not have made it in time even if he rushed over.
More likely, they'll be blocked by the allied forces of the four kingdoms halfway through their looting, and then everything will be exposed.
That General might be so angry he'd skin him alive.
It's terrifying to even think about. Let's go get the treasure first!
After all, this war will continue for a long time, and there are many other main battlefields besides this one.
Su Qing comforted herself and followed the old steward toward Lily Territory, while looking forward to the female lord's collection.
