Chapter 207: For My Promise

On the third day of the Purniden raid, Angus and Matthew's team had converged, and Matthew reflexively and Skaloa's regular army advanced the entire border line close to Purneyden, and Angus, who relied on Purniden's strategic advantage to hold on for a few days, actually took a little advantage in the hands of Sunderland, and the Angus army, which tasted the sweetness, decided to change its plan and no longer consider evacuating after destroying Poornidaden, but chose to entrench here.

If it can be defended, this place will indeed be an important hub for counterattacks, and the pressure on the logistics supply line will be reduced a lot at once, and after the sea route is completed, it will almost be able to directly unite with the rear, which is simply something that the commander will dream of laughing.

But the premise is that you have to keep it.

Taken together, the gap between Scarloa and Sunderland is still not a star and a half can be described, although Sunderland is unlikely to throw all his strength into this small city in the north, unless they don't want it elsewhere, unlike Scarloa, Sunderland has been at war with all the surrounding countries almost at the same time.

The most crucial point is that in this way, Sunderland has almost won the battle, and people have to admit that the power of the state apparatus that runs for the war and the support of technology is so terrifying.

Scarloa now only has technology, and other comprehensive strength can only be regarded as an ordinary level, almost empty has anti-sky technology and can't play it, if these things are handed over to Sunderland, Skaloa won't have to fight for a long time, this world has long belonged to Ambrose. King Pecoli, sweep away the Liuhe, and the world will be one.

I can still fight now, but it's still going to be tough.

After two days of defensive battles, Angus finally found a little gap in the night of Sunderland's retreat, and the consumption of these two days should be enough to make the opposing commanders understand the situation and understand that their forces cannot retake Purniden now, and there should be no new actions until reinforcements arrive.

He had been tired for many days, and if it weren't for the fact that it was almost late at night, Angus was going to meet the soft girl he had been thinking about day and night, as if he hadn't seen her for a long time, and he had been worried along the way, even if he knew that Carlil was unharmed now, it would be difficult to calm Angus's mood.

But now that Kahlil is asleep, in the most comfortable hotel in the inner city, and a few mercenaries who are said to have helped her in the city, and he is protected by the guards of Skaloa, at least for a few days, she can sleep fairly peacefully.

It's a bit too inhumane to disturb her at this time.

Angus himself is the same, after withdrawing from the front, he is now bent on going back to sleep, the location, of course, is the central castle that has been occupied, this place is indeed good, located in the center of Purniden, all kinds of traffic arteries are bordered by it, and on top of the castle you can directly overlook the situation in the distance, and the most important thing is that it is comfortable enough to live, the enemy's castle or something, it is really twice as comfortable to use as the castle under his own name.

If there is any downside, it is the lingering smell of blood at the entrance of the castle, the smell of the huge stone brick paved floor cannot be completely removed even if it is cleaned repeatedly, and even the cracks in the stone of the bridge are repainted by the coagulated blood stains, and every time you walk up, there is a terrifying feeling.

This is all done by the Oriental man who usually does not look amazing, after leaving corpses all over the ground, he actually only has a little blood of the enemy on his body, and there is not even any damage to the corners of his clothes, which is incredible......

Tired Angus quickly crossed the city gate bridge, ignoring the busy soldiers and guards around him, and climbed the stairs alone, ready to go back to his bedroom to sleep comfortably, and recharge for tomorrow's battle - no one knew what would happen tomorrow, and the best preparation he could make now was to rest.

Unfortunately, there was a guy he knew very well standing against the wall at the door of his bedroom, motionless, as if he had been in this position all night, just to intercept himself when he came back from the front and returned to the bedroom door.

Nothing to do is not to go to the Three Treasures Hall.

As soon as Angus saw Qing Xi leaning against the door, he knew that his plan to go to bed immediately now was in vain.

"Is there anything going on at such a late hour?" Angus said a little helplessly, his voice was full of exhaustion, although he was dissatisfied with the fact that Qing Ci was looking for him now, but Qing Ci was a huge combat power so that Angus had no way to refuse, and even if Qing Ci usually didn't do anything, this trip to protect Kahlil was enough for him to ask for credit.

"I hope to delay you a little bit" Qing Xi stood up, and lit the candle at the door of the room, although the light was not bright, but it was enough to see the other party's expression clearly.

Qing Ci looked at Angus with a tired face, Angus also looked at Qing Ci with a calm face, he tried very hard to find a hint of request and even seriousness from this man's face, but he failed, he didn't have any special meaning at all except for the same appearance as usual.

"If you don't mind, let's go up and say," Kiyoshi made a gesture of please, pointing to the staircase leading to the top of the castle, and after a short pause, he took the lead without waiting for Angus to respond.

There was no way, Angus had to shake his head and follow, and go up to see what kind of medicine was being sold in this Oriental gourd.

"How do you feel about the battle in the past two days?"

Qing Xi walked up the stairs, heard the footsteps of Angus behind him, and asked as the stairs turned.

Angus followed, and when he heard Qing Ci ask, he paused and replied: "Not bad, a little better than the result that I and Morton expected, in fact, we are considering taking Purniden for a long time as our springboard." ”

Qing Ci is a guy with a very strange status here, he does not belong to Scaloa, let alone Sunderland or other countries, he is very close to the nobles of Scalloa, but he can do what he wants without scruples, he can completely disobey the will of the nobles and even the royal family, and even the status of Angus is now, he has to give him a few points.

This is not a shame, after all, the strength of the other party is here, regardless of the particularity of the identity, the strength of the person alone is enough to exchange for the respect of any force...... It may even be enshrined.

"It's a good idea......," Kiyoshi replied, and after saying this, he was gone, and Angus had a feeling that he couldn't stop or go up and down, until the two of them walked around the stairs for a long time, and Kiyoshi stopped, pushed out of the wooden door next to the stairs, and came to the highest roof outside.

Except for the spire of the castle, this is the highest place that can generally be reached, and in the middle of the night, the cold wind blew the corners of the two people's clothes one by one, and even when the door was opened, Angus felt that he was being pounced on by the cold wind.

"Let's get it straight, what questions do you want to say this time." Angus was really a little tired, and after climbing the stairs for a while, he only felt tired and climbed up, but fortunately he was still in good spirits, and went up to lean on the rock-made guardrail, standing side by side with Qing Xi at the top of the castle.

"Can you win?"

Qing Xi did not hesitate, and threw out a question categorically, this question is so simple that it can be answered with or without it, but no matter which side of the answer is, Angus can't easily say it out of his mouth.

So Qing Ci asked, and there was a strange silence between the two, until Angus asked in a calm voice: "If you can't, can you be caught?" ”

Qing Xi suddenly let out a long sigh, this attitude made Angus a little inexplicably angry, as if he was being despised .

"Although the battle situation is quite optimistic, do you really understand how long the battle is in front of you" Qing Xi pointed to the position in the distance, "This is just the beginning, to end this, you have to overcome all the way to the southeast, the end of this land under your feet." ”

"Of course," Angus snorted and replied in a low voice, "It doesn't need you to say it, everybody understands it, everybody." ”

"It was because I understood that I had to make a little decision." Qing Ci shook his head: "Your Excellency, do you remember why I took over Karil. Andris - Is she hired? ”

Of course, Angus thought to himself, but did not answer.

"She told me that she wanted to find her home," Kiyoshi continued, "Maybe that's what I wanted, and what Carlil looked like at that time...... It's the first time since the death of one of my loved ones that I've been moved by someone...... It's funny, I promised her to find her the home she wants, and to get there, this war must end once and for all. ”

If there are internal and external troubles, how can we live and work in peace and contentment?

"So, what do you want to express?" Angus asked, he vaguely felt that something was not right, and Qing Xi's words gave him a feeling that something was not quite right, as if he was explaining something.

"The task I accepted was not to ensure the safety of her ginseng, but to be a guard on the road she was pursuing, and sometimes for the ultimate goal, I needed to give up some immediate situations and take a risk." Qing Ci said, shook his head slightly, took out a letter from his arms, and solemnly handed it to Angus: "Please take it and give it to Karil tomorrow morning on my behalf. Miss Andris. ”

"What are you doing here...... Angus frowned, and he didn't know if he should accept the commission of Qing Xi, but Qing Xi looked like a matter of life and death, forcing Angus to accept it after hesitating repeatedly.

"For you, clear some obstacles," Kiyoshi replied with relief, "I will leave here until the end of the day." (To be continued.) )
