Chapter 141 Transfer
No one could answer this question, although Hans and Oder were both scouting the military port, but they had no intuitive idea of this, not to mention Geraldna, who was already scouting inland.
"No, you can't go over there!" The door opened at this moment, and a voice came in, and everyone looked at the door, and Mackintosh appeared in the doorway, but the voice was not his, the voice came from behind him.
Mackintosh flashed to the side with interest, and the man behind him appeared in front of everyone, it was Heinz who went to Bordeaux, Heinz walked to the table of the people, found a place to sit down, took off his hat, and said to them: "You can't go to Antwerp, in Antwerp, the Ansa Empire has more than ten divisions around it, including three divisions of the barbarians, and now it can be said that it is like an iron barrel, don't think about taking the ship, even if we take the ship, which of you will drive?" Not only did the Angsa Empire gather its land troops there, but there were also more than ten detachments there, and even if we successfully sneaked to the shores of Antwerp and grabbed the ship, as long as we sailed into the ocean, we would face at least five detachments of encirclement, who would be able to get there?"
Vivian's brows furrowed more and more, judging from the information gathered, they could only go to Yalong Valley and forcibly break through the blockade to enter Yalong Valley, with their relationship with the dragon clan, as long as they could enter Yalong Valley, the pursuers of the Angsa Empire would have nothing to do with them, but Vivian always felt that something was wrong, so that her heart could not be put down.
No. 1 passed uneventfully, No. 2 did not move during the whole day, and the bathroom was closed just after noon, although it attracted a large number of inquiries from regular customers, but Mackintosh explained with a smile: "An old friend of mine has caught a girl in my boy in Geneva, and we are going to Geneva by bus tonight!"
The explanation was exchanged for a group of old customers with knowing smiles, and a bunch of words of blessing made Mackintosh's face bright. In the afternoon, Mackintosh boarded the bus to Geneva with his son and his only servant, the cashier, and no one noticed anything unusual, if anything, that is, all the staff in the bathroom were on a week's vacation, and there was not a single worker left in the shop.
No one noticed that Mackintosh's master and servant got off the bus at a great distance outside the city, made a great circle back to the hill behind Lausanne, and returned to the city through a secret passage, which opened in a very small house on the same street as the hammam, which was only three or five houses away from the hammam.
By this time, Mackintosh had changed his clothes and disguised his face, and had changed from a middle-aged uncle in good spirits to an old man who walked tremblingly, while his son had become a middle-aged man, and the two disappeared into the street after going out, one left and one right, while the cashier returned to the hammam through another secret passage.
Mackintosh and his son naturally continued to inquire about Bell's news, but among the mercenaries who came and went today, none of them suddenly seemed to have evaporated from the world.
After nine o'clock in the evening, Mackintosh returned to the store, and there was still no news, and his son was still at the city gate, and Vivien was determined to wait until midnight, and Mackintosh could not do anything.
Actually, he really didn't have any hope that Bell would show up at the meeting point on time, this variable was too great, he looked at the magic clock hanging on the wall, and there was still a quarter of an hour until ten o'clock, and he thought that he should still talk to the colonel.
He walked into the conference room, Vivien was no longer wearing a military uniform, but wearing a camouflage hunting suit, and several other people were also dressed in this outfit, their weapons and bags had been ready, and they were placed at their feet, but they were sitting at the conference table one by one, and no one meant it, he suddenly had no desire to persuade, this kind of behavior that would never leave his companions behind until the last moment, they knew best these agents who had been in a foreign country all the year round, what else did he persuade.
He went back to his room, packed his bags, picked them up and sat down in the conference room, and the other people smiled when they saw his actions.
The magic clock ticked by, two hours, two hours that were very difficult, but no one did anything else, so they sat quietly until eleven fifty-eight, everyone had given up hope, but they were still waiting, no one was willing to take the first step, it was cruel to leave their companions here at this time, but it was the most correct thing, so no one touched the problem, even if there were less than two minutes left.
The door of the secret passage opened, everyone looked over with hope, the cashier brother walked in, and he said to Mackintosh: "Stationmaster, the time is coming soon, there is news from Shaodong, or I haven't seen the news of Captain Bell, let's evacuate immediately, or wait?"
"Has there been any change in the guards in the city?" McIntosh asked, the guards in the city have not made any special moves in the past two days, and it seems that they have not been targeted, but who can rest assured and boldly say that those fools in the Angsa Empire have not discovered them, and no one dares to pack tickets.
"No!" the cashier brother said categorically, in the past two days, he has been advocating to leave quickly, but when it is really time to leave, he is reluctant, after all, leaving his companion also makes him feel uncomfortable, although he has never seen this person, but that person is a real hero of the empire.
Mackintosh turned to look at Vivien, "Colonel, why don't we wait another night?"
"No, let's go, we can't afford to gamble, I have to think about the majority!" Vivien looked around at everyone, a few mercenaries from scouts did not say anything, but the seriousness of their situation tomorrow, even if Bell and them were brothers, but at this time, they understood very well that when they were in the army, this kind of thing was not uncommon, and those who did not return on time almost all encountered insurmountable difficulties, and how many times they had to give up these companions.
They could only clench their fists, and secretly swore in their hearts that one day, they would come back for their comrades and return this vengeance to the enemy, and then wipe away their tears and send the collected information back to the rear without hesitation, they had no choice.
Today, it was finally their captain's turn, and they knew very well that the captain also wanted them to leave quickly, and not put everyone in danger just to wait for him.
Yu Wuming couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere, and said, "Why don't we wait one more night......?"
"No, we're going to go, we can't put adults in danger for the sake of one person, I think, Captain Bell will understand!" Vivien slammed to her feet, slamming her fist on the table.
Vivien had two bright tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, and she didn't know if it was because the pain of her fist had brought her to tears, or because she blamed herself for not being able to wait for Bell.
"Stationmaster Mackintosh, tell me about our next move!" Vivien turned to look at Mackintosh.
The cashier lay a map on the table, Mackintosh pointed his finger first at Lausanne, and then said: "We will now go out of Lausanne, first over the Alps, and tomorrow morning we can hit Gruyères behind the mountain, and rest there for half a day, and set off north, fifty miles to Fribourg, from where we will re-cross the Alps at the Friya Pass, and then continue north, through Neuchâtel, and our final destination will be Monrebon, where we have our alternate stop." ”
"Alright, just follow Station Master Mackintosh's plan, Gerald, write a secret message from the army!" Vivien turned to Gerald and ordered.
Gera had to pull a blank piece of paper and write down Mackintosh's plan, and when he was done, he folded the paper a few times and put it in his jacket pocket.
"What do you want to do?" Vivien glared at him.
"I'm going to make a trip to the Universal Hotel and put this at the front desk of the Universal Hotel, and as soon as Captain Bell arrives, he'll see this message, and he'll come after us!" Gerard said.
"No, Sergeant Gerard, this letter is delivered by my people, they know how to deliver this kind of letter, it's too unsafe for you to leave it at the front desk of the Globe Hotel. Mackintosh came over, took the letter from Gerard's hand, handed it to the cashier, and said, "You know what to do, go at once!"
After processing the letter, Mackintosh looked at Vivien and asked, "Colonel, shall we leave immediately?"
"Let's go!" Vivian Howe didn't drag her feet.
Mackintosh nodded, put his backpack on his back, and walked into the secret passage first, Vivien immediately followed, and several people quickly disappeared into the secret passage.
The next day, in the early morning of October 3, a group of people appeared outside the city of Gruyère, similar to Lausanne, and Mackintosh left a secret mark in an inconspicuous place at the city gate to show the way for Shaodong who remained behind.
The eight of them found a small restaurant not far from the city gate, and in the morning there were not many people in the restaurant, so they occupied two tables, bought some breakfast, and walked all night, and several were already very tired, but it was too close to Lausanne, and it was not a good place to rest.
The crowd sat in the shop until the sun was completely up in the sky, and the streets were calm, and it was certain that no one had tracked them down, as if the Angsa had really not noticed them at all.
When they had eaten all the breakfast, the two of them walked into the store from outside the door, and everyone looked over and stood up together, it was Shaodong and Bell, who finally caught up at the last minute.
After a short rest, they went on the road again, and on the way, everyone inevitably asked Bell about his experience, I really didn't expect that the troops assembled by the Angsa Empire in Antwerp were not more than a dozen divisions at all, but nearly thirty divisions, plus the Hamburg army defense map that everyone found, everyone could think of what the Angsa Empire wanted to do with their feet, and this time they did thwart the plans of the Angsa Empire.
"When I first arrived in Antwerp, the whole city was full of soldiers, but within three days, those troops left Antamp one after another, although the army left, but the investigation was stricter than I don't know how many times......" Bell carefully said what he saw, combined with other intelligence, Vivian secretly broke out in a cold sweat, I really didn't expect that the Angsa Empire, which had been handing olive branches to the Frankish Empire in the past few years, was trying to paralyze the Franks, let the Franks relax, and then suddenly raided.
If they hadn't intercepted the blood smoke and captured the Hamburg defense map, the Angsa Empire would have set sail by this time and embarked on the road to invade the Franks.
Once again, the group discussed the way back, but Bell also disagreed with the proposal to rush back from Antwerp, and he also thought that the best way to return home was the best way for them to return home.
When they arrived at Monrebon, they walked for three days, and they didn't encounter any problems in these three days, and it was a mess so smoothly that even they didn't believe it, but it was a fact, until they entered the alternate site in Monrebon, and they saw a commendation order.
Vivien held the commendation in her hand, and almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood: "Which bastard's idea was this? Is this trying to kill us?"
Yu Wuming came over curiously to take a look, and there were also Bell and Gerald, the three of them hurriedly finished reading, and the three faces immediately changed their mental abnormalities.
