Seventy miles outside Jinshan Prefecture. In a forest somewhere in the remaining lineage of Zhongshan, a team of 6 soldiers with a number of about a thousand people under the banner of Shenwei Army and a team of 6 soldiers and cavalrymen with solemn expressions mixed together to camp here.

"Lei, Lindao and the others have been there for a day, and no news has been made yet. Nothing will happen, right?" Als asked Lei Dongfeng.

"Brother Dao is agile. Even if the enemy troops in Jinshan Mansion have strengthened the investigation these days, there will be no problem." Lei Dongfeng shook his head.

It’s not that Xiao Lei was not worried about the safety of the old Taoist, but if he rashly sent troops to Jinshan Mansion to inquire about the news at this time, he might be exposed by the Western Allied Forces’ reconnaissance cavalry.

This time, in order to attack Jinshan Mansion, Lei Dongfeng and Als led 5,000 cavalry along the foothills of Zhongshan Mountain, walking only a small path, crossing the forest sea and crossing the mountain stream, and being careful along the way, and the war horse equipment was damaged. They only ran for more than 200 miles in one day and a half.

"You can send Stera and Leo Bella to find out the news, and you can also help Master Lin and the others." Als suggested again.

"According to the reconnaissance, the coalition forces in the Jinshan Prefecture have strengthened the investigation of friendly forces. Especially the investigation of the Shenwei Army, I think it was the incident a few days ago that made them frightened." Lei Dongfeng said with a wry smile.

"That's a fake friendly army, Lei, don't forget, we have a real Divine Force." Ars smiled.

"And according to Amoré, the Holy See did not convey the surrender of Ariel and his people. Even the commander of his mansion did not know. According to my understanding of the Holy See and the Pope, the Holy See has always denied the fact that such a 10,000-person brigade turned against him in the last battle. The only person who knows this secret is the top leaders of the Holy See. Their order to the Tupa can only be someone who pretends to be the Shenwei Army, rather than the Shenwei Army rebels into the Holy See. What's more, we are not sneaking into the city, but passing openly. We are going to support their "friendly army"." Ars smiled.

"Ars, you are very cunning." Lei Dongfeng smiled.

"This is also what the situation requires." Als said seriously.

~~~~~~~~

On November 8, 999, the imperial era, Jinshan Prefecture, Jiangnan Province, the empire.

The afterglow of the sunset shines on the fifteen-meter-high city wall of Jinshan Mansion, giving this thousand-year-old ancient city a hint of warm color.

As a second-level imperial city, due to its geographical location, the height of the city walls is far away from other second-level cities, and the area of ​​the city has exceeded 30 miles. In addition, the population in Jiangnan is dense, and a small Jinshan city originally had a permanent population of more than 300,000. Until the Western Allied Forces captured it, there were more than 100,000 Han people here.

Since Jinling Mansion was restored by Han soldiers, the time for the closing of Jinshan Mansion was changed to dusk. There was still a ray of light in the sky, and the small gate on Baishamen in Ximen was creaking and closed. The coalition soldiers and friendly troops who came to hand over the post completed the procedures and couldn't wait to return to the barracks to enjoy a not-so-pleasant dinner.

However, today's dinner is very much for Hughes, the centurion of the Saxon Kingdom. The pack of roast beef in the backpack on the horse will be his best food in the next few days.

Of course, Hughes wanted to give him half of the barbecue, but the remaining barbecue was definitely over four kilograms.

Such affordable delicacies are not something you can enjoy every day. Hughes's guards looked at the smiles on their adults' faces, and they looked envious until the barbecue existed, hoping that he could reward some, even if there was only a bowl of thick broth.

When Hughes thought of drinking tender broth at night, he couldn't help but lick his thick lips.

After returning to the occupied house, he burned the charcoal stove after following the house and drove away the guards who looked expectant, our centurion put the marching iron pot on the flames. Soon, the strong taste of broth spread in the house. Hughes poured out a bowl of broth before he could drink a sip, and before he could drink a sip, he heard a hustle and bustle outside the house.

The warriors of the soldiers prompted Hughes to raise his ears, and then his personal guard, who was a tenant farmer, wailed miserably. The guy came out of his territory with him. Although he was not a pleasant person, he was at least considered his confidant.

"Blake, what's the matter!" Hughes held the soup bowl and opened the door.

As soon as he left the door, a sharp sword hit Hughes's throat. The soup bowl in Hughes's hand fell on the ground of the bluestone with a bang.

The aroma of meat spread out in the cold wind, Hughes was stunned.

The person who came was Locke, the commander of the Divine Power Army. Hughes naturally recognized the demon who had killed more than ten people with various excuses after three days of arriving at Jinshan Mansion.

And his personal guard Black was trembling and kneeling on the ground, with a long sword resting on his neck.

Just as the bowl of broth was sprinkled, the kid even looked at the broth, looking distressed.

"The Saxons are indeed the most enjoyable nation. In this kind of shortage of materials, there is even meat soup? Lord Hughes, what can you do?" Locke sneered.

"Uh, Sai... Lord Rock, I... invite in and have a bowl of soup together..." Hughes's Adam's apple rolled subconsciously, swallowed hard, but said such an irrelevant word.

"This barbecue was bribed by Senna, Lord Hughes? Now, please tell me, when you guard the city gate at noon, did you put a group of escorts from the Sisleys, and came from the Kingsoft Huaizhen Taoist Temple?" Locke smiled gently, but the voice was extremely cold.

"I was wrong, sir... you mean Senna and the others in the Sisley Kingdom?" Hughes tried his best to restrain his panic.

Hughes knew in his heart that the news must have been told by someone around him. Thinking of this, Senna glared at his personal guard Black.

"It's them, where did they go?" Locke said.

"I've left the city, I've already left the city before dark." Hughes said hurriedly.

"Are all out of the city?" Locke frowned.

"This...I don't know, it should be..." Hughes muttered.

"Bastard. What do you know as a city guard?" Locke raised his sword.

"Sir, please spare my life. I remember that the Taoist priests and civilians have all returned, but their centurion Senna is still in the city and is said to be going to visit the kilns." Hughes knelt down and defended.

"Tie this malfeasant guy up and go find Senna together! Centurion, you know what you will get if you can't find Senna!" Locke said coldly.

"Sir, you are also a Saxon, you can't..." Hughes begged.

"Bastard, I am the waiter of the Lord God, not a Saxon! Come on, block this guy's mouth!" Locke glanced at Hughes in disgust.

Senna was holding a Han woman in her arms and drinking and having fun in a yard in the city. He didn't have much money in his pocket, but just a little bit of the supplies he was transported was enough to use these dry food and barbecue to exchange for the soldiers of other countries in the city and those hungry and other countries with little oil and water in their stomachs for a full amount of imperial gold coins, and the gold coins he exchanged for could be happy and happy in this kind of fireworks place.

"No matter how good the gold is, can it be eaten as a food? These idiots only know how to plunder gold. When there is no food in the future, they will starve to death." Senna was extremely despised when she thought of the friendly forces who were starving with gold coins, but she also envied them for their wealth in big cities. At least if they had the opportunity to return to West 6 in the future, the full gold coins of the empire would definitely be worth more than the hundreds of kilograms of barbecue he had accumulated.

Friends were arranged on his mouth, but Senna's hand subconsciously touched the package in his arms, where there were dozens of imperial gold coins that he had received today.

Today, after taking the civilians back the carriages that were crazy for some unknown reason, Senna took the duty to the military officers in the city and killed all his subordinates. Anyway, they were going to rotate to transport supplies. Every time they were escorted, they could rest for three days. And most officers would choose to spend the three days in the yard or tavern in the city.

It will not be until the evening of the second day or even the third day that we will leave the city and return to the military camp at the foot of Kingsoft.

After all, the war is imminent, and no one can guarantee that they can see the sun tomorrow morning and enjoy the day.

Especially for a relaxed position like Senna, who has no hope of promotion and no hope of returning to the country, sooner or later, and money comes again, living by just being a little bit more than a lasting goal.

"Sir, someone is looking for you outside." A servant pushed the door and walked in.

"Get out, who let you in? I won't see anyone!" Senna said angrily.

"What a big temper. It seems that the whip is still lighter!" A voice said coldly.

Then there was a sound of footsteps, and several tall soldiers broke into the room.

The leader stared at Senna, who was still immersed in the gentle country with a playful look, and the guards beside him were carrying the Saxon Centurion Hughes, who was like a dead dog.

"Uh, sir, are you looking for me?" Senna's wine suddenly turned into cold sweat and fell to his knees.

"According to the rewards of the scout camp, all Han soldiers are gathering in Zhenhai. Among them, the Shura Legion of the Han Empire has joined with the Benlei Legion and the Boyang Legion and took the lead. It is currently only 130 miles away from Nantong Prefecture and 300 miles away from Zhenhai Prefecture." A staff officer respectfully said to Mr. Long in the temporary camp of the Western Alliance Army of Zhenhai Prefecture.

Over the past few days, under the dispatch of this mysterious Mr. Long, he repelled several counterattacks from the Han soldiers from Zhenhai Mansion, and it was almost bloodless. Everything was expected to be ahead of the Han soldiers. Every time the Han soldiers left more than a thousand corpses and retreated in a panic.

Mr. Long even led his troops to attack a day ago and conquered Nantong Prefecture within half a day. More than 10,000 people from a guard army guarding the city were killed in battle, and only escaped Cao Shiwu, the commander of the cavalry division of the Guard Army, and more than a dozen personal guards.

This battle completely blocked the retreat of the defenders of Zhenhai Prefecture, and even blocked the Han soldiers who were aided one hundred miles away from Zhenhai Prefecture, increasing the defense space of the coalition forces.

"It seems that the military headquarters has finally made up its mind to choose here to fight the final battle?" Mr. Long smiled as if he was ridiculed.

"Send the order, the Nantong Prefecture defenders will not be able to go out. If there is a team of emperors and soldiers taking a detour, let them go!"

"Yes!" The staff officer walked down immediately.
Chapter completed!
