In late August of 784, the Far Eastern Army, under the leadership of Zi Chuanxiu, entered the thousand-year-old Tianqian Guqi Mountains and marched to the main battlefield, with a total of 150,000 horsemen and infantry horses. The sudden advance of the Far Eastern troops hit the weakness of the demons' defense against emptiness, and the demons painstakingly planned to build a northeast security zone for half a year, and they were torn apart by Zi Chuanxiu in just two weeks.

Sending troops from the province of Wag, the Far Eastern troops swept the three northeastern provinces with a storm and clouds. In the face of the fierce strength of the orcs, the demon garrisons scattered all over the place were beaten and fled in embarrassment. And the sixteen legion troops set up by the demons in various places did not play a role at all, it should be said that those human soldiers still played a certain role, but it was the opposite. Often, before the Far Eastern Army arrived, these human puppet armies killed the demon defenders and opened the city gate to welcome the orcs in.

On September 5th, the Governor of the Demon Clan, Viscount Gosen, encountered the vanguard of the Far Eastern Army led by Zichuan Xiu himself, and was defeated and killed, and on the same day, the capital of Dama Province was recovered.

On September 7, the governor of Ankara, Ye Hua, led his army to encounter the vanguard of the Far East in Ebony Town, and fought fiercely all night, more than 4,000 demon soldiers were killed, and Ye Hua was killed in battle. Four days later, the capital of Ankara province was recovered.

In the capital of Ankara, Shikawa Shu gathered the main forces of the Far Eastern Army. After analyzing the situation, the Far Eastern Army decisively divided its forces.

Zi Chuanxiu, Luo Jie, Bai Chuan, and Lin Bing each led their soldiers and horses, attacked everywhere, liberated the city and countryside all the way, and exterminated the garrison of the demon clan. From Bit to Dama, from Dama to Ankara, and from Ankara suddenly struck in all directions. The Far Eastern army sang triumphant songs all the way, and the demons swept away the clouds.

If there is a powerful demon army nearby, this stupid policy of dividing troops is bound to be self-defeating. But at this moment, the main force of the demon clan is blocking Stirling's advance on the imperial capital, and the rest are concentrated on the front line of the imperial capital to confront Zichuan Ning and the human alliance of the wind and frost, and the active and active attack strategy in the Far East, Duck is powerless to stop it.

In less than a month, four of the six northeastern provinces had been recovered by the Far Eastern Army. Each Far Eastern Army declared itself to be the vanguard of the main force of the Far East when it marched, and a strong follow-up force followed, and the great army followed! This was spread everywhere, and the number of troops entering the customs was rapidly doubled. An astonishing statement went straight to the top: "The Far Eastern Army is coming!" 400,000 half-orcs have been killed! ”

The news spread as soon as it struck, and the terrifying shouts echoed in the demon occupation area, thinking of the half-orc soldiers who had always been known as strong, the demon soldiers all felt chills in their hearts. The news spread like lightning, all the way along Bartley to the inland, to Dark, to Oss, and to the imperial capital. Passed to the Northwest Battalion (where the Northwest Coalition garrison was located). No one doubts the veracity of this statement, because the Far East is known as a million troops, and in the rebellion of the Northwest Frontier Army fifty years ago, the then Far Eastern commander led more than 400,000 Far Eastern troops to rush back to the imperial capital for reinforcements, and finally locked the war situation.

Will the victory of more than 50 years ago be repeated this time?

Hearing this news, the officers and soldiers of the demon clan all shuddered. The human scum who surrendered to the demons were devastated and had a premonition that the future of their master would not be good.

"The Far Eastern Commander is back! Our guys are calling back! ”

News is like a carrier pigeon with its wings spreading, soaring over the occupied territory. The soldiers and civilians in the occupied areas who heard the news all wept bitterly: "Our army has finally returned!" The liberation of the motherland is at hand! Hearing that Zichuan Xiu's good news came one after another, the human soldiers and civilians raised their eyebrows. The spirits were high, and people were convinced that victory was just around the corner. Churches everywhere rang joyful bells.

"Far Eastern soldiers are coming! He's coming! At the head of the imperial capital, looking at the eastern sky, the eyes of the young general in military uniform flashed with tears, and his body trembled slightly with excitement: "He went all the way and attacked the city, who is that for?" As promised that day, no matter how many rivers and mountains there are, he came back to save me! ”

During those two weeks, Zi Chuanning was so excited that he couldn't sleep at night. Every time the victories of the Far Eastern Army came, she was fascinated by joy. Throughout the day, she would suddenly cry for no reason, and she would suddenly smile subtly and subtly for no reason. In the eyes of his subordinates, after knowing the news of Zichuan Xiu's entry into the customs, the commander of the Central Army, who was previously methodical, simply became an inexplicable madman.

It is the nature of every young girl to love romance, and the hard years and iron-blooded tribulations of staying in the imperial capital have not been able to erase the girl's longing for roses. At this moment, Zi Chuanning is simply at the peak of happiness. Not only does he learn of his sweetheart's arrival, but also because the way he arrives is so romantic: Prince Charming leads thousands of troops to save the beautiful princess from the castle surrounded by demons, which is almost like a realistic version of countless romantic fairy tales.

The only thing that makes Zichuan Ning fly in the ointment is that the speed of Zichuan Xiu's mount is too slow, too slow, too slow! She couldn't understand that since he had 400,000 male soldiers, why didn't he pounce forward at once and sweep away the demon army that straddled the two of them, but he walked in the northeastern province that deviated from the main battlefield and struggled with the small demon troops, and never dared to approach the imperial capital?

"The cowhide blew so much that I thought it was real."

Zi Chuanxiu smiled bitterly, he knew his own affairs, "400,000 half-orc army", that was blown out. If you really want to face off against the Demon God Emperor, your own soldiers and horses are still not enough. In order to increase the number of troops, everywhere he went, Zichuan Xiu always made a big publicity, and he had a pardon issued by the Supervision Department in his hand. Except for Ma Wei, as long as he killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions, the soldiers of the family who had defected to the enemy could be pardoned as long as they were lost. Due to his prominent position as the leader of the Zichuan family, no one doubted the authenticity of this sentence. As a result, the news spread widely, causing a great sensation among the demon garrisons in various places, and the repercussions caused were not only limited to the northeast, but even spread to Duck City.

The human soldiers who surrendered to the demons, their submission to the demons was purely out of fear. Now the situation is different, the human army is counterattacking, and the demon army is declining. Many officers and soldiers of the 16th Army who were recruited fled at night, and the wave of deserters even spread to Venari, Gute and other provinces where the demon tribe was heavily garrisoned. The morale and morale of the Sixteenth Army Corps were corrupted to such an extent that in the execution of the mission. Entire regiments of soldiers are often missing. Some of them were killed by the guerrillas who resisted the demons, but many more escaped on their own. So much so that Ma Wei had to invite the regular demon army to guard the periphery of the human barracks, and all human soldiers who left the barracks without permission at night would be killed.

The demons are growing in strength on the side, but Zichuan Xiu is growing in wings.

Every day and night, people who signed up for the army lined up in front of the barracks in the Far East. Among them, there are people in the occupied areas, but more of them are deserters from the Sixteenth Legion of the Demon Race. In order to win the trust of the Far Eastern army, they brought a bloody gift, that is, the severed head of the demon race, as a result. They proved that they had indeed broken with the enemy and were dedicated to serving the motherland. Soon, even the civilians followed their example and sought out the heads of the demons as their greeting gifts, but their intentions were completely different from those of the deserters, they wanted to prove that they were still brave and worthy of recruitment by the Far Eastern Army. Soon, a hill of demon heads was piled up at the gate of the camp. Spectacular.

Zichuan Hidemi had an idea and issued a proclamation, announcing that anyone who brought the head of the demon clan as a gift could join the Far Eastern Army without taking the test. This news caused a great sensation, and after being dispersed by Zichuan Xiu's army, the demon routs from all over the country were scattered in the cities and villages. Most of them talk about gangs who rob homes and rob houses, and harm one party. Haunt everywhere. And Zichuan Xiu didn't have the time to conquer them for a while. But since the announcement was issued, the heads of the demons have suddenly become golden! Those soldiers of the rebellious Sixteenth Legion, seeing that the power of the demon clan is declining, who doesn't want to rejoin the Zichuan Army?

It's just a pity that there is no way. Right now. Tight Chuanxiu's proclamation pointed them out the bright road: "I want to do it anyway, okay!" Just kill a demon! ”

Overnight, countless hunting squads were formed. In all parts of the country and the countryside. The demon soldiers were horrified to find that they had been turned from abusers to prey. As long as the news of the demon clan spread, countless hunting teams immediately swarmed in, and a large group of middle-aged men with knives and guns pursued the demon rout, and the ferocious momentum was unprecedented! Even the villagers of Chunpu were driven by this craze, and picked up scythes and hoes to chase and fight the demons, one by one, they tasted the sweetness! A demon head can be sold for five silver coins, which is much more cost-effective than farming! And as the demon gangs everywhere were exterminated one by one, seeing that the supply of goods was getting less and less, the price continued to rise, reaching the sky-high price of fifteen silver coins and a demon soldier!

The interests are moving, and seeing the high profits, people are even more excited, and even a mercenary group with the main business of hunting demons has appeared. Soon, the rout of the demon clan scattered all over the city and countryside was driven out by the enthusiastic people who wholeheartedly surrendered to the Far Eastern Army, and the people who came one step later were so desperate that they wanted to jump over the wall: "You kill all the demons, what can I do!" "-Fortunately, they still have a way out, although in the area occupied by the Far Eastern Army, the demons are difficult to find, but in the places where the Far Eastern Army has not yet killed, there are a lot of demons! Provoking Dak's demon army is looking for death, but it is not difficult to find trouble with the demon garrisons in some small places and attack some lone demon sentries and scouts.

Compared to the beginning of the crossing of the Guqi Mountains, the strength of the Far Eastern Army is much stronger, thanks to the eclectic absorption of troops by Zichuan Xiu. As long as he comes to join him, no matter what his identity, whether he has been a rebel or has surrendered to the demon clan, as long as he is a sturdy soldier who meets the specifications, Zichuan Xiu will accept all the orders.

Such a large-scale absorption of human rebels without distinguishing between good and bad made Lin Bing very worried. She was afraid that such a mixture would reduce the quality and combat effectiveness of the Far Eastern team, and urged Zi Chuanxiu to screen the recruited soldiers. Zi Chuanxiu just smiled: "I even dare to accept Lu Di and Ross, two demon nobles with bloody hands, are you still afraid of the lost children going home?" ”

"But many of those rebels had the blood of our own family. Also, what if there are spies sent by the demons among them? ”

"Investigating the culprits and punishing the culprits is a nerve-wracking thing after the war. But right now, no matter what he's done before, combat power is the most valuable. Those people who are hovering between us and the demons, if we don't take them, then we will push them to the side of the demons, and then turn the power that could have been used into enemies, wouldn't it be stupid! As for the spies, I believe that there are few humans who are willing to work for the demons. And even if I had, would I have turned away thousands of qualified soldiers for fear of a few spies? ”

And so it was settled. No matter what the quality is, at least the number of soldiers and horses under Zichuan Xiu's command is greatly considerable. With newly recruited soldiers. Shikawa Shu formed six human infantry divisions. Naturally, the discipline and combat effectiveness of the new troops were not comparable to the Xiuzi battalion and the half-orc team, but Zichuan Xiuke was not worried at all: the original Xiuzi battalion was composed of villains, hooligans and rebels. The quality is much worse than now, through his hands, now it is not the same as the prestigious ace army?

After marching from the Far East for a long time, Zichuan Xiu had never fought such a smooth battle. The march was as smooth as a rehearsed exercise, attacking the city, as long as he pretended to intimidate, there would always be troops loyal to the Zichuan family in the city who surrendered to the city; On the march, you don't have to recruit, just unfurl the eagle banner in front of the queue. Immediately, farmers in the countryside, woodcutters in the mountains and forests, and hawkers from villages and towns to villages and towns all consciously came to act as guides and spies for the army. Everywhere they went, there were always local people who came spontaneously with money, food, and supplies to comfort their own troops. Although the appearance of the orcs is a little fierce, this does not affect the people's love for this powerful army in the slightest, nor can it deter the enthusiasm of the people.

Everywhere the army goes. will cause a local sensation. The old people, children, men, and women gathered on the edge of the camp, just to see the legendary Far Eastern Army, which had won a hundred battles. Of course, the barracks were heavily guarded, and they could see nothing except the sentries on duty. But that's enough to satisfy them. Looking at the thick thighs and arms of the orcs, the fierce eyes and gaze. Looking at their wild fur clothes and half-human-high maces in their hands, the onlookers widened their eyes in surprise, thinking that they had seen a monster.

Although they are both of different races. But the people's feelings for the orc soldiers and the demon soldiers are completely different. The demons are the most vicious invaders, the murderers of their relatives and children; And the orcs in front of him are warriors under the command of the Far Eastern Commander, although their faces are terrifying. But they are their own family, and they are here to protect their army!

Seeing that the sentry was standing in place, not in the slightest, the people were getting bolder and louder, and they were getting closer and closer, and several naughty children even ran to the sentry's feet and watched curiously. The half-orc, who was impatient, finally got angry, and he roared, and the mace slammed into the ground fiercely, and the ground buzzed: "Go away! The barracks are important, and you are not allowed to stay! ”

"Wow-" The crowd dispersed like a tidal wave, and the nearest few people were so frightened that they were frightening, and the children were so frightened that they cried and crawled away, but soon they gathered again in the distance to watch.

"So fierce, so fierce!"

In the crowd, exclamations came one after another: "What a fierce warrior!" With such a hero, we will definitely be able to clean up the demons! ”

"Look at him like this, I don't know how many demon soldiers he killed!"

Of course, not all the people who came to the barracks came to watch the majesty of the orcs. As a temporary camp for the army, every day and hour, countless people came from all over the world to ask to see Zichuan Xiu, they were elected representatives of the local people's will, from those cities and villages that were still occupied by demons, and their purpose was to beg the Far Eastern commanders to send troops as soon as possible to rescue their hometown.

"We are willing to give money and food, we are willing to give people, as long as you need it, we are willing to provide anything, even if we burn the house to your adults and your soldiers and horses to keep warm, we will do it! I just ask you, my lord, to send troops to save us quickly! The demons and their lackeys are abusing the city and the countryside, and we can't live anymore! ”

The inhabitants wept all over the place, crying about the tyrannical rule of the demons in various places, and the cries were heard in the military camp day and night. They said that the demon clan was greedy to the point of madness, and they almost looted everything that could be looted in the cities and villages, so that the demon soldiers were full of food and wine, while the people starved to death in the streets and alleys, and survived under the brutal rule of the enemy. Because of the suspicion that the residents are secretly in touch with the Zichuan Army, the demons have to openly kill people every day in order to deter the disgruntled people and maintain their crumbling rule. Because they had a hunch, this was their last chance to go crazy, and they had stripped off all the disguised and warm faces, and the atrocities of the demons were more cruel than usual, more animalistic, and unscrupulous.

At first, Shikawa Xiu was also interested in meeting the delegates, listening to their cries, and shedding tears for them with sympathy. But no amount of sympathy can withstand such a tossing day and night, and there are too many representatives from all over the world who come to see them. For example, Bartley, for example, Gut, for example, Venari. Some even went as far as the neighboring provinces of the imperial capital, and Zi Chuanxiu soon found that if he continued like this, he would not have to do anything, and he would cry with them all day long, and many of the residents' representatives asked him to do something he couldn't do at all, for example, there was a guy who was not very sober and asked him to immediately send troops to expel the "demon bandits entrenched around Dake", Zi Chuanxiu stared at him for a long time, and couldn't figure out whether he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid.

Thereupon. He generously assigned this messenger to Lin Bing and Bai Chuan, women have natural tenderness and compassion, let them accompany the delegates to cry slowly, anyway, Zichuan Xiu is not capable of rescuing them now.

But in addition to the representatives of the public who came to ask for help, there was another group of people who came to the Zichuan Xiu camp, and they were not so easy to dismiss. They were the original local Zichuan family town guard officials and landlord nobles, and when the demons came, they didn't have time to retreat to the rear. So they fled to the countryside and hid incognito—in their words, "hiding underground and waging an unyielding struggle against the demon occupation forces." "Now, seeing that the army of the Zichuan family has come back, these heroes who are doing unyielding struggle hurriedly crawled out of the ground. Just as the demons are besieging the imperial capital, they are also besieging Zichuan Xiu, shouting that they want Zichuan Xiu to restore their former power and wealth.

For those officials who asked to come and be reinstated. Zichuan Xiu is easy to pass. As long as someone came to him to ask for an official, he always agreed: "Okay! What position do you want? I'll give you a letter of appointment. Governor? Governor? You're welcome, just open your mouth! ”

He agreed so readily, the other party was a little weak. At this time, Zichuan Xiu "accidentally" leaked a military secret: the Far Eastern Army was about to go to the front. Once the main force of the army is deployed, the demons are very likely to counterattack.

"Anyway, it doesn't cost a lot of money to sign a letter of appointment. Your Excellency will stay behind and strengthen the rear for us. This kind of patriotic spirit of sacrificing life and forgetting death is very valuable, and I am touched one by one."

Zichuan Xiu said nonchalantly. He walked out of the camp and shouted: "Bai Chuan, quickly bring my official seal to be sealed, another one is here!" ”

At this time, the hero's face often turns pale. After a period of thoughtful thought, they told Zichuan Xiu: "Thank you very much for the appreciation of the Commander-in-Chief. I also want to be able to hold an official position under the command of the Commander, but I suddenly feel that I can make a greater contribution to the country by continuing to hide in the underground secret and fight against the demons! ”

Chuan Xiu was very disappointed, and his expression was as if he saw the fat fish in his hand slipping out of his fingers: "Your officer has been governing the place for a long time, and your valuable experience and talent are very much needed by our army. How about thinking again? ”

"It's really an honor for the Commander to do a little bit for the Commander. But the underground secret front really can't do without me! There, I am also organizing the people, launching propaganda, and waging an unyielding struggle against the demons! My lord, although you are in the light and I am in the dark, we are on different fronts, but we are also fighting against the demons! Wait until the day of victory, and let's meet again! ”

Speaking of this, the unyielding warriors who fought in the dark shook hands warmly with the tight Chuanxiu who fought in the light, and they were generous, tearful and goodbye one by one, and then the hero hurriedly ran away, and Zichuanxiu never saw him again. It is estimated that as said, he will hide in the dark and carry out an arduous struggle with the demons, and until the last demon is completely driven out of the Xichuan Continent, he will never risk crawling out of the hiding pool to reunite with Zichuan Xiu.

But for the restoration of the land and property of the nobles, Zichuan Xiu is not so easy to say. After the catastrophe, there is a lot of waste to be rebuilt. In order to encourage the people to resume production as soon as possible, Shikawa Shu has ordered that the people everywhere can mine the abandoned fields on their own, and whoever mines the fields and pays taxes to the army at the prescribed rate will have the ownership of the land.

After the proclamation was issued, in order to obtain their own grain fields and land, the peasants in various localities were unprecedentedly enthusiastic and enthusiastically engaged in production. Those destitute peasants, who had no foothold in the first place, suddenly gained their own land overnight, and they admired and appreciated Zi Chuan Xiu beyond measure, and every household offered Zi Chuan Xiu's name and tablet incense.

Originally, Zichuan Xiu didn't have any opinions on civil affairs such as who the land belonged to, and he issued that decree just to save trouble and speed. As long as the landlords pay their taxes on time, the local government can supply grain and grass in a timely manner. Even if the land returns to the wind family, Zichuan Xiu has no opinion. But now that he had decreed it, the nobles came to say that the land was theirs and that they wanted to take it back. Isn't that the decree that Shikawa Xiu just issued is going to be abolished? Swallow back the words just spoken, where will the majesty of the dignified leader go? Moreover, this also involves a question of stability, and if the land policy that has just settled down changes again, the peasants will panic, which will affect the supply of grain and grass for the army.

"Lord Commander, this is our ancestral inheritance, can you ignore us!"

"Your Excellency, if you insist on trying to rob my family's property, the consequences will be very serious! We are aristocrats. It's not those rural peasants who don't know the rules and let others bully! If something happens to you, it's not good! ”

"Commander, be careful, not respectful......"

The pleading, righteous and stern please, the threat of the knife hidden in the words, the temptation of gold and silver to buy beautiful women, the nobles did their best against Zichuan Xiu. Seeing the people chattering around him like green-headed flies, Shikawa Xiu was deeply depressed. He suddenly hated the demons: You have slaughtered so many people, why did you leave out these most hateful guys?

In the northeastern provinces, after driving away the demons. The Far Eastern Army rules everything, and Zichuan Xiu covers the sky with one hand. He's a veritable overlord. And although that group of nobles turned out to be quite powerful, they had experienced the catastrophe of the demon invasion and had lost their strength, and they were not even a fart compared to Zichuan Xiu, who had heavy troops. If you change to Di Lin, these guys who don't know how to raise and dare to bother the commander will definitely encounter an unfortunate accident due to the rout of the demon army, but after all, Zi Chuan Xiu has not yet cultivated Di Lin's perfect skill of killing people and killing people. In the face of this group of nagging old nobles, the only reaction he could make was to close the camp gate and order the guards to rush out when they saw them.

In fact, Zichuan Xiu didn't have time to pay attention to the noise of this group of old nobles now, after achieving so many easy victories that even surprised him. He realized that compared to the Far East's army of only tens of thousands, the territory of the four northeastern provinces was already too large. I swallowed too much in one gulp, so be careful of being torn out of my belly.

For himself, the top priority is not to continue to conquer cities and ponds to expand his territory, but to convert the cities, population, and resources that have been swallowed into combat power. As a result, the King of Light was no longer busy with military affairs, but worried about how to quickly establish a local government that could control the situation. In one day, he appointed four governors, fifteen mayors, and thirty garrison captains in one fell swoop. Legally speaking, Zichuan Xiu is only the commander of the Far East, and he has no right to appoint officials in the southeast, and this kind of behavior is a great act of ultra vires and is suspected of rebellion.

But seeing that Zi Chuanxiu signed the appointment letters in large stacks, Bai Chuan, Roger and others didn't say a word, but even Lin Bing, an expert in military and political affairs, didn't say a word to stop it, which really made Jian Chuanxiu depressed. He was ready to fight with everyone, but no one challenged him, which was as frustrating as when an athlete was told on the field: "You don't need to compare, you are the number one".

In the end, he couldn't help but ask Lin Bing: "Lord Lin, there's nothing wrong with me doing this, right?" Doesn't that seem to be very proper? ”

"Of course it's not right, it's very bad." Lin Bingzheng buried his head in writing the proclamation of the provisional military government, and did not raise his head: "According to the rules, the northeastern provinces are subordinate to the administrative office of the imperial capital, and the governors and governors of the provinces are appointed by the president. If you are in terms of military discipline, you have exceeded your authority. ”

"That ......"

"The general is outside, and the king's order is not obeyed. Whether everyone can live until the day when they are held accountable by the Zichuan family or, whether there is a Zichuan family at that time, this is still a question! My lord, don't hesitate, just do it, if you are lucky enough not to die, if the family dares to pursue it in the future, I will fight against you together. ”

During the speech, Lin Bing never looked up, so Zi Chuanxiu couldn't see her expression clearly, and she couldn't figure out whether she was joking or serious.

Since there was no objection, Zichuan Xiu let go and did a big job in the occupied area. He appointed a governor, organized the government, and issued a proclamation announcing that the land had returned to the rule of the Zichuan family. In order to make up for the vacuum of power, Shikawa Xiu selected dozens of shrewd and capable officers from the Xiuzi battalion to serve as governors and mayors of various places.

Before these future high-ranking officials took office, the King of Light summoned them and told them bluntly: "Ladies and gentlemen, your most important task is only one, and that is to raise food, grass and supplies for the army!" ”

So, the grain convoy went out in all directions, looting everything that could be obtained. Grain, hay, cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, millet, and rice poured in from all over the country like a tidal wave, and the conscripted men pushed small carts along the transportation roads of various towns and towns to the front line and military camps, and the convoys carrying supplies flowed endlessly, as if a new river had been opened on the highway.

Of course, the King of Light commanded the Zichuan Army, which had not committed any crimes, and was a righteous army, and it was impossible for him to do the same thing as the demons who burned, killed, plundered, and forcibly requisitioned the people, and the officers and soldiers were disciplined and conscientious, and it was impossible for them to rob the people and property. Every time they levy, they pay on the spot, and they pay military coins - Zichuan Xiu has long been prepared for large-scale expropriation, and he signed countless white slips, which are large enough to expropriate the entire Xichuan Continent. As for how the Zichuan government will repay this bad debt in the future, Zichuan Xiu doesn't care about it now, it is a matter that the chief of staff Goshan and her finance minister should worry about. Zichuan Xiu estimated that no matter how degraded he was, he would not fall into that position.

The mixed act of robbery and fraud in exchange for a blank sheet of paper for the fruits of the peasants' hard work brought collective shame to the top brass of the Far Eastern Army. For this stain on life, invariably, the top brass of the Far Eastern Army chose collective amnesia. In the memoirs of the book "The Southern Expedition and the Northern War: The Days of Following the Adults One by One", which later became popular all over the continent, Shirakawa-sama did not mention the Northeast War at all, which left a large gap in the later study of war history, and gave the impression to later generations that after Zichuan Xiu led the Far Eastern troops to trek through the mountains and rivers and crossed the moat of the Guqi Mountains with great difficulty, he suddenly had wind under his feet or learned the method of shrinking the land, and suddenly joined Sterling in Venari. As for the white slip signed by Zichuan Xiu, it was worth a hundred times more than 50 years later, and became the first choice of collectors to collect, which was probably unimaginable to anyone at the time.

Shikawa Xiu, who owes a lot of bad debts, doesn't care about how to repay it at all, and he only cares about one thing now, and that is the battle situation. After continuous battles, he had just gained a firm foothold in the northeast, and his eyes had already turned to the battle-torn southeast battlefield and put it into the imperial capital battlefield.

What he craved most now was nothing else, exact news from the Imperial Capital Front and the Oss Front. But this is very difficult, because between Zichuan Xiu and Stirling or the imperial capital, there are large occupied areas and armies of the demon clan. Although a large number of refugees poured into the occupied areas of the Far Eastern Army, they did bring countless news, but these news were unreliable—not that the refugees wanted to deceive Shikawa Xiu, but these news were unreliable, and the enthusiasm of the team was so high that even Zichuan Xiu was moved.

The problem is that due to the limitations of their own military qualities, the common people cannot know exactly what they see and hear. A battle on the scale of a patrol conflict spread through the mouths of the refugees, and it turned out to be a big fight between the Southeast Army and the main force of the demons. Much of the news is the imagination of the layman, and it often contradicts itself. This person said that Stirling's army had defeated the demons, and another person said that the southeastern army had suffered a great defeat. The untrained civilians, they have no way of accurately measuring the size of the army, as long as the number exceeds a hundred, they have the same adjective in their mouths: "That's a lot!" There are so many so many that I can't count them! If Shikawa Xiu were to rely on such information to advance, it would not be strange for him to hit the Demon God Emperor headfirst.

It is imperative to obtain accurate intelligence. The Far East Army Command has sent a large number of spies to the demon-occupied areas, but it takes time to collect information, sort out and pass on information in the demon-occupied areas.
