The relationship between the regular army and the local army is not subordinate to each other. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although Lu Wu didn't have any special views on this in the past, but in the current situation, he can understand how bad a "defense commission" is. Because the commander of the local army, even if he makes a very excessive move, no one can restrain him.

"Lu Wu, look over there. Amber said.

Speaking of which, Amber is probably a very non-existent person - as mentioned earlier, everyone, including the most sophisticated Ivan, is unimpressed by Amber's existence. In everyone's opinion, she is Lu Wu's lover, and her so-called soldier status is just a means to be with Lu Wu. Everyone consciously ignores her, and Amber herself tries her best to look unobtrusive.

But in fact, she does have some kind of natural ability to attract everyone's attention, because when she says this, the people in the car, including Aki, look towards where Amber is pointing.

In a small clearing on the side of the road, there was a car parked in the same car as the one they were riding. As with most of this equipment, the symbol of the army to which it belonged was written on the rear side of the car.

The car apparently belonged to the Banshee Gate local army.

However, the condition of this car is really not good, although it is obviously still able to drive normally, but the shell can be seen to reveal a "dirty and messy" temperament.

If it's on the battlefield, this situation is normal, and no one cares about the appearance at the moment of battle. But it's calm here. From this point it can be seen that its owners are clearly not very mixed.

"Sure enough, there is also the existence of the local army corps. Redcoat said softly. "However, things don't seem to be going well. ”

"No, I thought they were going to be good. Ivan said. "But that's a little too bad. ”

"A car doesn't mean much. Aqi frowned.

Lu Wuyi didn't understand what they were talking about.

"Your Excellency Lu Wu," Ivan explained, noticing Lu Wu's expression. "You probably don't know much about the Banshee Gate...... Cough...... In fact, the numbering of the Banshee Gate Legion is not random, but there is a certain pattern, for example, one to fifty, almost all of them are deployed in the most frontier position. And in the back, the larger the number, the closer it is to the rear. ”

Lu Wu nodded, he had long known about the hundreds of legions under the command of the Governor of the Banshee Gate, but he didn't know much about the original deployment of these legions.

"Under normal circumstances, these regiments in the rear, which were originally deployed, although they said to be retreating, had enough spare to bring all the supplies with them, and they did not have to worry about the pursuit of the enemy or anything - we were in their way. From the beginning of the disintegration of space-time to the present...... It's not a short time, but it's not a long time. It doesn't feel like this. ”

Lu Wu understood. For example, the 16th Army Corps was almost completely wiped out, and only Lu Wu, the squadron leader, was left. It's normal for this remnant army to become like this. But for example, these regiments, which were originally in the rear at the beginning of the war and retreated early, were fully equipped with personnel, and there was no reason to be like this under normal circumstances.

Lu Wu still remembers the first time he met Hongyi, that is, when he was forcibly conscripted into the army. At that time, the Sixteenth Army Corps had a large number of troops, a large amount of equipment and supplies, and could even expand the army in a wave - although it turned out to be very effective.

"So, why did it become like this?" Lu Wu asked. He was a little puzzled.

"Well, I'm going to ask the commander named Grumas. This time, it was the red clothes who answered.

"Anyway, let's go check it out. Your Excellency, I suggest, I strongly recommend," Ivan said. "We're not the commander in charge of the defense of Gasher, but only the messenger sent by the commander, right?"

"Before we visit that Grumas, let's take a look at the city of Nice. The red coat seconded. "Maybe go to the surrounding area first?"

Several men dressed as soldiers walked by. Lu Wu's gaze stopped at these people, and he clearly felt that the three kinds of people, they, these soldiers, and these refugees, were out of place and distinct. If you want to describe it, it is like three levels, three completely different worlds, three scenes depicted in one painting with three completely different styles of expression.

Lu Wu's party drove brightly lit cars and wore new spring clothes or imposing exoskeleton armor, the soldiers wore untimely winter clothes and drove cars that looked rather badly maintained, and the refugees were ragged and looked dull.

However, among the three scenes, there is a place of convergence. The soldiers were handing out food to scrawny children. This kind of scene makes people feel like they have gone back in time, reminding Lu Wu of some TV shows he once watched on Earth, where some soldiers of the United Nations peacekeeping force distributed relief food to refugees in a war-torn place.

But at least on TV, those food items come in truckloads and boxes. But here, the soldiers took out very little, and the children wanted too much food. It's just that in a short time, everything is divided.

The soldiers looked like they were sighing, but there was only so much they could do. The only thing they can do when faced with so many pairs of expectant eyes is to get in the car, stop looking at those eyes, and drive away along the road.

Five or six children who had not been given food gathered together and looked at the departing car with the last shred of hope, their lips twitching, as if praying for a miracle to stop and give them a little forgotten food.

Lu Wu suddenly felt as if something was choking in his throat, and he clenched the armrest for a while.

A hand slapped on his armrest, and Lu Wu turned his head and saw amber purple eyes. Amber smiled.

Their car stopped, and the two women in the car, Amber and Aki, got out of the car and came to the children. Then, in half a pack, the food is handed out to them - as mentioned earlier, this kind of car actually has a large trunk underneath, and it can even be easily stuffed into an exoskeleton armor, so it is not too easy to decorate the food. A group of children, numbering about a dozen or twenty, quickly disappeared to the laughter.

Amber returned to Lu Wu's side and gently patted Lu Wu's hand with her hand. This time made Lu Wu feel a lot more relaxed.

"The soldiers seem to be doing well. Red-clothed said in an almost emotionless voice.

"It doesn't have to be a soldier, maybe it's a part-time adventurer. Ivan replied. Although in the earliest days, the two people in Red and Ivan were very hostile, or Red was always vigilant and inexplicably hostile to Ivan. But now, they seem to have found that many of the two people agree with each other, so that this hostility between the two is getting weaker and weaker, and it is no longer noticeable. Now the two of them are really good partners in the job.

Going to the controlled area of Kecha Goyat to gather substances or anything is not without risk. Although it is not as exaggerated as nine deaths, it is also a careless game that will be finished. In addition, compared to the risk, the return is not very good, although there are also some people who get rich overnight (such as picking up a good warehouse or something), but in most cases, walking too much at night will eventually meet ghosts. If you don't wash your hands in time, you won't come back after going out one day.

"It's also a skill to toss this place like this. Aqi said.

"As soon as the governor dies, the commander of the local army will be unscrupulous. Ivan said. "Nobody's in charge anyway, is there?"

"Is there such a precedent?" Lu Wu asked suspiciously.

"Yes, there is a time when the governor dies and dies with the heir......" said Ivan. "If the higher-ups don't care, it's time for the Legion Commanders to compete with each other. This kind of war will not be very large, and it will not be short, but it will still be a war. ”

"At this time, isn't it to compete for the position, but to try to win the hearts and minds of the people?" Lu Wu asked again.

"Win the hearts and minds of the people?" asked Ivan, somewhat strangely. "What's the use of that? Should the right thing to do is to squeeze everyone in your control and muster as many resources as possible to hire warlocks to help?"

"That, I mean ......"

"Even if you buy 10,000 ordinary people to support you, they will at most muster a large team of troops to help you, which is no more than a warlock attack. ”

Lu Wu had nothing to say.

"Then again, does that mean...... Grumas hired a warlock?" asked Aqi suddenly.

"Since he is a nobleman and has someone behind him, it is normal to hire a few warlocks. Redcoat replied. "That's what worries us the most. ”

The warlock's power is very strong, so Grumas is easy to get carried away because of his own strength, and in this case, even if Lu Wu comes to the door, he probably won't give up his ambitions for the floating fortress. Maybe he will even treat Lu Wu as a fool. Even if you don't tear your face at that time, it is estimated that it will be perfunctory at will.

The speed of the car on Lu Wu's side slowed down. A sentry box appeared in front of it, blocking the middle of the road.

This means that foreign vehicles are not allowed to enter. Lu Wu also noticed. The car had already pulled off the road and was heading in the other direction. Lu Wu and his entourage parked at a slightly farther distance and left the road.

Behind the sentry box, it should be the entrance to the city of Nice. Because in that direction you can see the buildings - not tents on the side of the road, but real permanent buildings. Although the style is different from that of the earth, the creation of scientific and technological civilization has something in common after all. However, in the direction of the car ahead, you can also see some buildings in the distance, and they are much lower over there. It should be what Lu Wu knew from intelligence, a small town built by refugees.

Now, should I go directly to the city through the sentry, or should I go to the town first and ask more about the relevant information?

There was a puff of smoke and dust in the rear, and Lu Wu only noticed a car at this time, rushing towards this side at high speed.

There were obviously some pedestrians on the road, but the car didn't have any intention of slowing down at all, making it clear that it didn't care who it hit. Fortunately, this posture is also quite scary, even the people who were originally walking along the road, after seeing the momentum of this car, hurriedly left the road to dodge. So the car came and went smoothly.

A brand new-looking car, the car was somewhat similar to Lu Wu's side, and there were several people wearing exoskeleton armor. Before the car reached the sentry post, the obstacle had already been removed. So the car disappeared in the direction of the city of Nice.

Then Lu Wu heard another voice, and a group of soldiers wearing exoskeleton armor appeared in the rear.
