When Xing Shen was busy inside and outside the territory, Lu Jie, the former commander of the Ganges, was not idle, although the old emperor ordered him to be dismissed, but as long as his subordinates still had soldiers, he wanted to do something. Worse still, there were no supplies from the imperial court. Although the soldiers followed him, they still had to eat, and after only three days of marching, a small half of them sneaked away.

At the juncture, the little princess Chu Tianling finally ushered in the military order and restored the position of the chief soldier of the Ganges River in Lu Jie. Lu Jie was very happy to have someone to take charge of the overall situation again, although he had never seen the little princess, but one after another military orders were issued, which finally made the behemoth of the Nebula Empire move. He believed that the entire empire could not be conquered by just crossing the river with 200,000 alien races, so Fenglingdu had to be recaptured in order to stop the reserve new force of the barbarians.

Although the official position has returned, now the northern border is in chaos, and Baiyun City is still stockpiling war materials, where can supplies be sent to the north bank of the Ganges River. As a last resort, Lu Jie had no choice but to take his subordinates to station at the edge of the Warcraft Forest, relying on hunting and gathering to obtain some supplies. Every day, he sent out a large number of scout rangers to find out what was going on both sides of the Ganges.

On this day, the place where he was stationed welcomed a guest, Shi Yu, the son of Shi. The two young men had killed the enemy side by side in the previous Ganges attack and defense, which can be regarded as a sympathy for each other. Now Shi was suddenly restored to his official position by the little princess, and more importantly, he was given the position of marshal of the war zone in Baiyun City. It can be said that the safety of the empire this time is almost on his shoulders. Then it is conceivable that Shi Yu's arrival is definitely not so simple.

"Haha, Shi Yu, have you come to help me kill the barbarians again?" Lu Jie greeted him.

(As the plot progresses, the levels and grades of Lu Jie and Shi Yu have jumped to level 60 Commander.) It is conceivable that the two of them will be the backbone of the official army of the Nebula Empire in the battle on horseback. ）

"Well, it's for the barbarians, but it's not like last time you can kill a few. My father has entrusted me with something important, let's go in and talk about it. Shi Yu didn't try to hide it, this attitude just fit Lu Jie's temperament.

"Yes, please."

"Please."

Lu Jie drove all the people out, and Shi Yu said, "Now that the empire is under attack, looking east to the sea, there are enemies in the direction of Qiongzhou, and there are almost no reinforcements in Baiyun City that can be trusted. There are only 80,000 Imperial Forest Army defending the imperial capital, you should know that although the Royal Forest Army has the highest Yulu in all armies, its combat power is ~,"

Lu nodded his head, of course he knew this kind of thing, the strongest combat effectiveness must be the border army, but unfortunately in the battle of Shuofang City, the empire lost too many elites.

Shi Yu continued: "Although the mountains are now being reorganized, the ratio of military strength between the enemy and us is close to 2:1, and according to reliable information, the second batch of 300,000 barbarian invasion troops has been assembled and moved south from Shuofang City. ”

"Sure enough! I know, brother, you don't know, I have been entrenched here with my subordinates just to cut off their supply lines and troop transport lines at a critical moment. ”

"Well, cutting off their supplies is one thing, and more importantly, we need more strength to fight the barbarians." Shi Yu looked at Lu Jie with burning eyes.

Lu Jie's brow furrowed - more power? Now that the Nebula Empire is surrounded by enemies, where to ——??! Suddenly, he pointed to the northeast.

"That's right. My father had dealt with the steppe wolf clan a lot before, so it can be said that he knew them quite well. The steppe wolves are human beings like us, but they are nomadic people, and we are agricultural people. To tell you the truth, my father has been on the battlefield all his life, but his only confidant is the general of the wolf clan. ”

"When I was a child, I heard my father talk about these things. General Shi's mountain tribe and the Wolf Clan's Gongsun Jue's Flame Army were legends of that era. The two of them were the brightest generals at that time. ”

"Your father, General Lu Ming, is also a real man. Haha~" Shi Yu was a little embarrassed by Lu Jie's praise, so he praised each other's fathers.

"My father is upright, loyal to the king and loves the people, although he has been slandered and excluded a lot, I respect him very much." Lu Jie was not embarrassed at all, "So, General Shi wants to send you to unite with the wolf clan and ask them to send troops?" ”

"At present, it is only a tentative contact, after all, the old man is no longer there, there are still some grudges between the two sides, and my father does not have much hope." Shi Yu knew that although his father said this, at this juncture, sending him out must have hoped that he could bring back good news.

"Good. I'll give you a team of 100 to accompany you through the Warcraft Mountains. "Although Lu Jie doesn't have many supplies, he still has loyal subordinates.

"Thank you. I'll leave in the afternoon! ”

Although the northern border has become an occupied area by barbarians, the monsters in the Warcraft Mountain Range do not recognize the master, so the foot of the Warcraft Mountain Range has become the preferred route for pedestrians, although there is a danger of encountering low-level Warcraft, but it is free from the scourge of swords. This route that Shi Yu took with people.

There are not many cavalry in Lu Jie, but Shi Yu's hundred-man team is still all light cavalry, and this is a treasure scout who specializes in spreading out news when he wants to put it aside. This made Shi Yu's travel speed much faster, and in two or three days, he approached the defense area of Shuofang City, and the probability of encountering barbarian soldiers here was greatly increased, so Shi Yu led people, day and night, and did not light torches at night, with his good eyesight (Shi Yu's eyesight is amazing, and he can act as a daytime with moonlight. Lead the way.

"Someone~!" Shi Yu reminded in a low voice, and the people and horses behind him all stopped, quietly, and it seemed that the opposite side also stopped.

There was no movement in the middle of the sound, Shi Yu thought to himself that they must not be barbarians, and if they had swaggered and shouted. "Who's on the other side?"

"Shi Yu?" The other party's voice was inexplicably a little familiar, and he even called out Shi Yu's name.

"You are?" Shi Yu felt very strange.

"I'm Zhu Jun. Zhu Jun, who has played with you since childhood. The person who answered stood in the moonlight, and it could be seen from this that he knew Shi Yu very well.

Although the clothes and accessories are not quite right, but the appearance and figure are indeed his good friend Zhu Jun (Shi and Zhu Ye are friends, so the two sons often meet) Undoubtedly, Shi Yu can't help but be a little surprised. After the first battle of Shuofang City, General Zhu Ye was killed, and the eldest prince also died later, he always thought that his friend was not spared, but he didn't expect to see it here.

Two former best friends stood face to face.

"It's great that you're still alive, I'm going to take you to see my father, who was sad for a while to learn the news of General Zhu Ye's death. He must be very happy to see you. "Shi Yu knew that his father missed the battle of Shuofang City because of the breakthrough, and he always felt very ashamed of Zhu Ye.

"Well, I'll definitely visit my uncle when I have time. Shi Yu, I have an important mission on my side this time-"

"Pony!!" Someone behind Zhu Jun suddenly shouted, interrupting Zhu Jun's words.

Shi Yu was suspicious: "Horse? ”
