In the night, a special car drove quickly and smoothly on the expressway leading to the city, and there were two people sitting in the back seats, Bai Lidu and Zhou Ruolan.

The two of them sat next to each other, and Zhou Ruolan still held Bai Lidu's arm tightly with her arm.

"Well, thank you tonight......" Zhou Ruolan whispered.

Bai Lidu patted Ruolan with his other hand, and didn't say anything, sometimes that's it, one action may be more effective than saying a few sweet words, and not all words need to be spoken.

The whole person was completely relaxed, and the scenes that happened in the restaurant before couldn't help but appear in Bai Lidu's mind: the second half of the poem that Bai Lidu picked up was obviously recognized by most of the people present, and even Fan Xiaopeng himself nodded in convincing. And tonight's birthday star, that is, Zhou Ruolan's father Zhou Guanghai, also likes the song "Gift to the Old Man" written by Bai Lidu, and as soon as the public performance on the stage ended, he immediately stepped forward to put away the words, as for the one written by Fan Xiaopeng, although it was also put away, it was only polite on the surface.

After the special car arrived at the Overseas Chinese Garden Community, it was 10 o'clock in the evening, and the two returned home quickly, and Bai Lidu also logged in to the game as soon as possible.

"Huh!"

The characters of the game appear in the carriage of the Nine Princesses.

Bai Lidu looked around, but did not find the figure of the ninth princess in the carriage.

Drilling out of the closed carport, it was a daytime scene outside, and everywhere as far as the eye could see, there were patches of snowflakes everywhere, and there were even a few snowflakes falling in the sky.

The carriage was also parked in place, and the convoy full of weapons and supplies was also parked on the side of the road, and on one side of the road was a high mountain with dense woods.

Not far away, there were also bursts of shouts of killing.

Bai Lidu's heart moved, and he quickly jumped away from the carriage, and then went straight to the direction where the shouts of killing came from.

Not far from the side of the convoy, there is a relatively gentle slope, and the soldiers on their side have already set up an iron bucket-shaped defensive formation, while the ninth princess and her three subordinates are standing in the center of the iron bucket array, and the ninth princess has also changed into a yellow military uniform at the moment, so it is also very conspicuous, and there are more than a dozen red celebrity humanoid monsters on the periphery of the iron bucket array who are constantly trying to attack.

Bai Lidu ran closer to take a closer look, and saw a row of sword and shield soldiers holding shields standing on the outermost part of the Iron Bucket Formation, and they were also squatting on the ground with shields.

Behind the sword and shield soldiers was a line of spearmen armed with spears, all of which were now stretched out flat or diagonally, making it impossible for the enemy attacking on the periphery to get close.

And the innermost standing is the crossbowmen, although these crossbowmen are all holding Zhuge crossbows flat, but they do not fire crossbow arrows to the outside.

Seeing that there was no danger on the scene, Bai Lidu did not fight to enter the battle, because he had the token of the deputy commander of the Guardian Army, so he could also use this token to check the details of the team in the current line:

[Guardian Deputy Commander Order] (March Battle Token): Special mission props, those who hold this order can dispatch all the escort battalion soldiers on the march and in battle, and can temporarily assign the command to the escort commander, the maximum number of commanders: 400 people, limited to the player [Li Dubai] only use.

- Escort Leader: Princess Shouzhuang and Shuo (Temporary Command)

- Guardian Military Academy: Wan Zhen'er, Blue Winged Bat King Wei Yixiao, Li Bai

- Guardian Barracks: 60/400

- Recruit Recruitment: 0

- Recruit recruits: 8

- Marching Food: 80%

……

Oh? You've already recruited 8 recruits?

Only then did Bai Lidu discover that in the center of the iron bucket, in addition to the ninth princess and her three retinues, there were also several characters with green names, although their outfits looked like they were in the same group as the enemies attacking from the periphery, but they were already in the state of green names, which should be the recruits after being successfully recruited.

The red characters who are attacking on the periphery of the Iron Bucket Array are also holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, which are basically steel forks, single knives, or melee weapons such as spears, and these characters are also on the periphery of the Iron Bucket Array at the moment, constantly attacking the Iron Bucket Array.

[Mountain Bandit] (Normal, Humanoid): Level 30, HP 3000......

As Bai Lidu expected, these guys were supposed to be mountain bandits living in the high mountains next to them.

The shield defense of the sword and shield soldiers is still very good, and the spearmen stretch out their spears from behind, so that the melee attacks from the enemy on the periphery have also been weakened a lot.

"Huh!"

As soon as the Ninth Princess raised her hand, a ray of light flashed, and a red-named mountain bandit who was originally holding a steel fork to attack the Iron Bucket Array turned into a green name state in an instant, and also automatically practiced to the back of the Iron Bucket Array, and then entered the center of the Iron Bucket Formation, and the number of recruits who surrendered also became 9 people.

After understanding this process, Bai Lidu didn't plan to watch the play anymore, and his whole person rushed to the front of the iron bucket array, and he also walked to the center very easily.

"Huh? Commander Li, are you back? The nine notaries asked.

"Well, I'm back, I've worked hard for you these past few days......" Bai Lidu also instinctively replied.

- System prompt: Due to your concern and greetings, Princess Shouzhuang and Shuo's opinion of you has increased by 50 points.

Hehe, I didn't think that just saying anything could increase my favorability.

"Commander Li, since you have returned, then the right to command this team is still for you to recover ......," the Ninth Princess said.

- System prompt: You have returned to the marching team to the northern border pass, and the temporary command you assigned to Princess Shouzhuang and Shuo has been withdrawn, is it immediately withdrawn?

Be!

"Huh!" With a bang, Bai Lidu found that the participation token he had given to the Nine Princesses had actually returned to the package.

Considering that there is still at least a day and a half of the trip to the road, Bai Lidu also knows that this road must be indispensable to encounters like the one in front of him, if he recruits or surrenders too many recruits in the early stage, the food and grass for the march is likely to be tight, but the benefits are naturally very obvious, that is, these recruited or recruited recruits can also receive training for recruits in advance, so that it is possible to quickly convert these recruits into formal escort battalion soldiers, And the mountain bandits or road rage encountered later may also have more people or stronger attack power, so the sooner you train the recruits, there will definitely be no harm, and as for the shortage of food and grass, you can also consider other methods.

After thinking about this, Bai Lidu also let the Nine Princesses continue to launch the surrender technique, as long as the cooldown time is up, it will be launched immediately, and when the recruits who surrendered again have enough 20 people, they will also temporarily stop the action of surrendering, but send Wei Yixiao and Li Bai to slaughter these mountain bandits who only have 3000 blood, and after seeing that there are no more new mountain bandits, the whole team will also set off again, and continue to move towards the northern border pass......
