Inside a steam car, Jasmine stroked the fine steel armor on her body and thought silently.
After their Kingdom of Hobro reached a cooperation agreement with the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, the other party thoughtfully sent them several sets of stainless steel armor, which were both beautiful and practical. However, they were free after all, and could not be compared with the "mecha" of the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce.
Originally, Jasmine wanted to take the soldiers and act together with the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, but was rejected by Shu Daqiang. Because their traps had been dug, Jasmine and their soldiers were no longer needed. Bringing so many people would be a burden and would increase the risk of exposure.
Of course, Shu Daqiang did not directly say something like “You are useless and are just a burden”, but explained considerately: their front battlefield needs more people, and perhaps a qualitative change will occur because Jasmine brought these tens of thousands of people to support them.
This is actually true. The Kingdom of Hobro has made up its mind. This time, except for the necessary soldiers defending the city, almost the entire army has been dispatched, including three of the four main legions. If they fail this time, let alone the tenth place, even their eleventh place will be lost. It may be even worse, they may be eliminated directly.
It is difficult to help someone in need, but it is too easy to kick someone when he is down!
After all, most of the resources of the Orc Continent are monopolized by the Sirius Empire. One less country means one less competitor and they can get more resources, which is closely related to their own interests.
Jasmine touched the car door again, feeling the heavy steel, which made her feel much calmer.
As an old rival of the Babus Kingdom, their Hobro Kingdom had long studied them and had developed a special battle plan. Coupled with the resources purchased from the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce this time, she felt that in this battle, their Hobro Kingdom had a greater chance of winning than the Babus Kingdom.
The premise is that Babus's Second Army does not come to support.
All of this depends on the results of the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce.
The problem now is very simple. As long as the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce can stop the Second Legion for one day, their Hobro Kingdom will have a high probability of defeating the Babus Kingdom.
If the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce cannot stop it, then it will be troublesome. The Babus Kingdom may be caught off guard at the beginning due to the surprise attack, but as long as the second army arrives, their Hobro army will definitely be wiped out! To be honest, the King of Hobro is the first person who dares to gamble so much and puts the chips on the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce.
"Captain Jasmine, we still have three hours to get to Babs!"
Suddenly, the voice of his men came from the front seat.
Jasmine came back to her senses and quickly looked at a small clock in the middle of the car, which showed eleven o'clock.
This clock is one of the few good things in the poorly equipped steam truck, and it can play a huge role at a time like this.
For example, now, their Hobro army will arrive at the Kingdom of Babus at two o'clock in the afternoon, and at around two-thirty, she will receive news from the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce.
That is to say, in three hours and thirty minutes, she will know the outcome of this war that has not even started! It sounds incredible, but this is the truth.
These three hours seemed extremely slow to Jasmine. She could even describe it as a year. During this period of time, she wanted to press the communicator several times to ask about the ambush of the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce and whether they encountered Babs' Second Legion. However, she finally held back.
After all, Shu Daqiang said that if she took the initiative to turn on the communication, the energy of the communicator would be consumed very quickly. If it ran out of energy at the critical moment, she would be ready to die.
In the midst of this dilemma, this huge black convoy arrived in Babus.
“Phew, we’re finally here!”
There were no accidents along the way, which made Jasmine feel relieved.
Soon, the other two team leaders got off the car and came to Jasmine.
They are Nick, the commander of the second legion, and Harold, the commander of the third legion. Both are lion beastmen, which means they are all royal family members of the Kingdom of Hobro.
In fact, they are both Jasmine's brothers.
Including the Fourth Legion stationed at home, he is also Jasmine's brother. After all, it is military power, and it would be unsafe to hand it over to outsiders.
The reason why the First Legion led by Jasmine is the strongest legion in the Kingdom of Hobro is not only because of her own strong strength, but also because her legion was inherited from the king, while the remaining three legions were assembled bit by bit by their legion commanders.
This was also a test given to them by the king. Whoever could develop the strength of the legion to surpass the First Legion would be able to inherit the throne. Jasmine became a role model for them.
Of course, this does not affect the relationship between the siblings. Jasmine still has a good relationship with her brothers. Because she is young, everyone takes good care of her.
For example, in this mission to stop Babus's Second Legion, his three brothers all rushed to come, because it was an extremely dangerous mission, even more dangerous than a head-on attack on the Babus Kingdom, but in the end the old king could not resist Jasmine's pleading and agreed to let Jasmine fight.
The old king also had a lot to consider, because among his three sons, one would definitely inherit his throne in the future. If one of them died unexpectedly before his time, it would be absolutely unfair, and it would even make the other two sons worry too much.
Although Jasmine was his favorite daughter, she would not participate in the fight for the throne. To put it cruelly, her death would at most make these men sad, and that was all.
Such a decision is indeed cruel, but for the sake of his country, the old king must make a choice.
Of course, all this was because they felt that going to stop the Second Legion was an extremely dangerous mission. Even with the help of the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, they might still die! Just two days ago, when they heard that the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce did not need Jasmine and the soldiers she led, Old Wang Guo and Jasmine's brothers felt unbelievable and relieved at the same time. Although they were not the ones who died, they had a good relationship with them. It would definitely be better if they could survive. Therefore, they had a lot more favorable impressions of the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce, which they had never met before.
As for Jasmine herself, she didn't care. When she accepted the mission, she was prepared for death. She even felt regretful because she didn't get to see what means the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce used to stop it.
Jasmine and her two brothers discussed it for a while and decided that they should wait until the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce sent them a message confirming that they could stop the Babus Kingdom before attacking.
In this way, even if the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce failed, they would have enough time to retreat.
Although they are not afraid of death and had never thought of retreating when they decided to fight the Babus Kingdom, but now Hongye City has placed their retreat route at their feet, they have to take a few steps.
However, what they didn’t expect was that just when they were about to find a hidden place and wait for thirty minutes, they were discovered!
Speaking of which, this was also the alertness of King Babus. After they discovered that Hobro's army had disappeared, they instantly entered the highest state of alert and began to look for clues. After all, the Hobro Kingdom still has strength and should not be underestimated.
Believe it or not, they actually found it. It was about the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce.
The Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce has always been looked down upon by the high-ranking officials of their Babus Kingdom, but they suddenly found out that the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce has a vehicle that can carry people and has strong mobility.
Originally, they thought that such things were unorthodox and useless, and their own strength was more important. However, if the Kingdom of Hobro got such things and chose to take a detour and attack them quickly, it would be a bit troublesome because the Kingdom of Hobro was very strong.
Therefore, the Kingdom of Babus began to patrol, especially the border areas, which were the key patrol targets. As a result, the patrol happened to find Jasmine and the others.
This only shows that they were unlucky. Even if they were a little later, they could have escaped.
But there was nothing they could do. Since they had been discovered, they immediately killed the patrol officers. However, the other party had already released many carrier hawks, and they were unable to stop them all.
"We can't wait any longer, or else the Babus Kingdom's army will be mobilized and our surprise attack will be useless!"
"kill!"
After the three of them discussed it, they immediately prepared to attack in advance.
They no longer had time to wait for news from the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce.
When the army of the Hobro Kingdom suddenly appeared and rushed straight to the capital of the Babus Kingdom, Babus was really scared. Fortunately, their patrol worked and they also got the news when the Hobro Legion attacked. Otherwise, they would have to wait until the other side rushed to the city before getting the news, and it would have been too late.
At the same time, when the Hobro army and the Babus army were fighting hand to hand, Babus's Second Legion finally arrived deep in the jungle.
Although the Second Legion was very arrogant, they were not stupid. Before entering the jungle, they sent scouts to explore the jungle. To their surprise, there was no ambush in the jungle.
To be honest, this was a pity for them, because this was the best ambush location. If those people from the Kingdom of Hobro did not ambush here, they would have no chance.
With a more relaxed mood, the Second Legion entered the dense forest in an orderly manner.
"Hmm? Are there any signs of disturbance here?"
Suddenly, someone noticed that the grass under their feet was disturbed.
The legion commander immediately ordered people to wave flags and everyone stopped.
"What is this? A trap?"
Someone asked doubtfully.
Traps might be useful to others, but to Babs's Second Legion, they were just their leftovers.
"Haha, don't they know that we also set traps before?"
Someone laughed.
As the strongest spears of the Babus Kingdom, they have seen all kinds of scenes. They have studied traps thoroughly a long time ago. Even in recent years, the record for the most people killed by traps was created by them!
Although these orcs found it ridiculous, they did not let down their guard. Instead, they deployed their own professional trap-setting orcs. They had long sticks, fishing nets, stones and all kinds of other things in their hands. Although it looked a bit messy, they had to admit that they were very useful.
But what was puzzling was that they walked carefully for a long time but didn't trigger anything.
Everyone looked at each other.
Is there no trap? Or is this trap too advanced to be triggered by ordinary means?
This makes everyone more cautious.
However, after walking for nearly an hour, nothing happened.
"Heh, could it be that they are trying to confuse us in front, making us let down our guard, and then give us a fatal blow from behind?"
The legion commander shook his head. Although their Second Legion was not good at defensive battles, their vigilance was definitely high enough, and they could not be fooled by such a small trick.
Therefore, the Second Legion continued to move forward into the depths of the dense forest at a leisurely pace.
When they entered the dense forest, a white airship was quietly parked in the clouds in the sky without their noticing, and even moved slowly with the clouds.
On the airship, in addition to Shu Daqiang, Niu Dali and others, Zhang Feng and the little red dragon Xi'er were also on board.
"They're in, they're all in!"
Niu Dali shouted in a low voice with some excitement.
Compared to him, Zhang Feng was very calm.
After all, this is not the first time he has done such a thing.
Looking at the Babs First Army slowly moving towards the jungle below, Zhang Feng turned his head and said to Shu Daqiang:
"Is everyone arranged?"
"Don't worry, sir. Our people have already infiltrated the nearby countries!"
"Um."
Zhang Feng nodded. Judging from the size of the First Legion, it would be impossible to wipe them out with just these explosives. Zhang Feng was only satisfied with blocking them, so he asked Shu Daqiang to lobby nearby countries to get involved.
Of course, these countries are not stupid. They dare not get involved in the affairs of the Babus Kingdom, but Shu Daqiang promised that they can participate in the war anonymously, and the Hongye Chamber of Commerce will provide them with clothes, weapons, food, etc., so as not to reveal which country they are from.
Moreover, Shu Daqiang also said that the Hongye Chamber of Commerce would first severely damage the Second Legion, and let these people come only to clean up the mess and prevent the accumulation of corpses from causing a plague.
The most important thing is that if they agree, the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce will give them an extra batch of food and weapons! Enough to make them rise two or three places in the rankings! Under such temptations, some people are still tempted. If, as Shu Daqiang said, the Babus Kingdom will definitely lose, then if they join the war, they will definitely not lose.
The prerequisite is that the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce can inflict heavy damage on the Second Legion.
Now they are also waiting for news from the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce.
"It's about time..."
Zhang Feng calculated the time, and after watching the Second Legion go deep into the dense forest, he immediately ordered the airship to move away from here.
In the dense forest, the commander of the Second Legion suddenly looked up as if he had sensed something.
"What is that!"
Watching a huge thing flying overhead gave him a bad feeling.
"What's wrong, my Lord?"
One of his subordinates looked up curiously, but saw nothing except branches.
"Not good! Retreat quickly!"
After a moment of silence, the legion commander suddenly roared, scaring everyone.
Although everyone was confused, their good discipline made them obey orders and turn around and evacuate immediately.
But, it was already too late.
On the airship, after feeling that they were far away from the battlefield and relatively safe, Zhang Feng picked up a remote control and pressed a red button on it.
Click.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Suddenly, there were explosions coming from the dense forest, accompanied by flames, which dyed the sky blood red. Countless screams could be heard faintly, but they were soon drowned out by the explosions.
