26. The Verge
It's Nahat again, this old rival seems to have become the biggest obstacle to Bai Zhongran. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝU๏ฝEใ Although it seems that Bai Zhongran is also an obstacle to him.
For the next two days, preparations for war were intense.
The two sides were plotting on the basis of their own information, and Bai Zhongran knew himself and the other to formulate tactics. However, the design that Hart was so sure of was ambushing him that was somewhat unusual.
How did he know that they would ambush him at that time and place? Unless...... From the beginning he thought they would definitely go to that location, at the same time.
Que Ye found Bai Zhongran again, and he was very uneasy about this plan.
There are too many variables that cannot be grasped, whether it is Jiang Yue or whether the information they get is a counter-strategy.
This kind of ambush with scattered forces can work wonders if it is used well, but if it is not used well enough. In the end, it is very likely to be counterattacked.
He bowed his head slightly and said humbly to Bai Zhongran: "Sage, I have been thinking about it for a long time. Still against this battle plan, we can't afford to take such a senseless risk. Hold on to the Glory Ground enough to stand against the remaining 400 or so Imperial troops. โ
How could Bai Zhongran not know about his doubts? "I know all of this, go back and get ready for action, Executive," he affirmed. โ
"But ......"
"I said - carry out the order!"
"Yes, Sage."
If it weren't for the existence of the prophecy of Qiyi, Bai Zhongran might have considered not taking this risk.
But the hint in its introduction that only major disasters can only appear in his mind lingers in his mind, and if he wants to eliminate the cunning Nahat, he must be taken by surprise.
Even if the price comes in falling into its trap.
At noon on the same day, four troops with a total strength of 400 troops set out.
The smallest number of troops was Bai Zhongran's direct subordinate - the Holy Arbitration Panel, with a total of 60 people. The strength of the remaining three armies led by Tiemian Su Bai, Mu Rong, and Hong Mengchuan is not much different.
The inhabitants of the Land of Honor swept them away one after another, and saw them off heavily. After working so long, this is going to be a critical moment.
Bai Zhongran was still dressed at the beginning, and he was indeed much thinner than Qi Ye and the others who were fully armed. But his voice was undoubtedly the highest, and he smiled and took the blue flower bone handed to him by a little girl like a porcelain doll, and sniffed it on the tip of his nose, which was not scented, or even colorless and tasteless, but he liked it.
The land of honor has horses, which can be seen from the large expanse of grassland on the Spirit Valley.
However, due to the restrictions of the three tribes, there are only about 70 horses here. At this moment, all of them have been transferred by Bai Zhongran to arm the Divine Arbitration Panel. They are the only mobile force.
Although the paladins are heavily armed, the horses that have been specially trained and have good blood are more than enough to withstand them.
The rest of the people, even Mu Rong, don't have this treatment!
Han Rui was unwilling, and followed the request again and said, "Master, take me, I will definitely not cause trouble." โ
He had asked before, but Bai Zhongran refused. This time is no exception: "No, before you truly comprehend the sword soul and have the power of self-preservation." You can't take part in this dangerous mission yet, and you're in charge of securing the city with the garrison. โ
Whether it was Han Rui or Mu Xi, he would never allow the two of them to encounter danger. Because of the particularity of the system, if he wants to open up the career of the War College, he must be reached by his personal disciples.
It can be said that only after Han Rui reached the Sword Soul realm. Only the rest of the people have the potential to break through the barrier of the beginner ghost swordsman!
That's right, Han Rui and Mu Xi are the strategic core!
Although Han Rui had only followed Bai Zhongran for a month, he had already revered him to the core, and he would never disobey Bai Zhongran's orders.
But the other person is not necessarily the same......
The four armies, the Arbitrator, and the remaining three marched in different directions. They need to carry out another mission, and the task of dealing with the Imperial Army will be given to someone else.
No one noticed that a giant wolf was quietly following the arbitrator with a girl dressed in delicate plate armor and carrying a cross on her back.
Half an hour later.
Han Rui, who was in charge of the vigilance, scratched his head and said suspiciously: "Strange, why is Mu Xi missing?" Did you see her? He asked several members of the arbitration panel who were familiar with him, who were also Mu Xi's subordinates.
"Nope." They shook their heads in confusion, in the past, Mu Xi was always haunting them for special training, and today it was indeed a little weird.
At this time, Fuyuhagi trotted over and asked anxiously, "Have you seen my wolf?" It's gone all of a sudden! โ
โฆโฆ
In the camp of the Imperial Army, the horn of the assembly has sounded.
Imperial armies began to converge. Suspicious, listen to the commander's orders.
Didn't you say that you would send out 250 troops to ambush the thieves? Why did you suddenly change your order to add 100 troops?! Moreover, it is also the most elite command headquarters.
What puzzled them even more was that the commander actually set off together! However, he stopped on a high ground, just in time to see the scene in the distance, which was the same place where they were going to ambush the thieves.
Is it to witness the annihilation of the thieves?
Ruan Qing's scarlet cloak that had been eroded by Nahat was blown to a whistling sound, and his originally domineering face was a little more yin and evil at the moment.
He held on to his sharp, glittering tomahawk, and looked out into the distance at the dangerous aura that made his men close to him feel like pins and needles.
Dang Party......
A spear-armed Imperial soldier unexpectedly dropped his weapon from his hand and fell to the ground! Frightened, he hurriedly bent down to pick it up, and at this time, he looked at the shadow that shrouded him, and looked up at the commander in fear.
This punishment is indispensable! He sighed in his heart.
But when the light flashed, he was stunned to see Ruan Qing suddenly raise the battle axe, as if he was already stunned. The other soldiers didn't even dare to look into Ruan Qing's eyes at this moment, and secretly exclaimed in their hearts, "Are you going to kill him just for such a thing?!"
On the other side, Jiang Yue's eyes flashed with some doubts.
"Keep your head down." Ruan Qing's tone was flat but majestic, and the imperial army that had been shocked hurriedly lowered his head, or rather, he wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy......
"Commander Rao ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Ruan Qing roared like a madman, "Ahโโ! The tomahawk in his hand slashed down the soldier's neck. The rest of the soldiers were frightened.
"Poofโโ!
Blood sprayed everywhere like oil paint, and a head full of fear and confused expression rolled down the steep slope and left a blood-red mark.
The air seemed to be frozen by blood, and although Ruan Qing was violent in the past, it was not like this. It also made others even more frightened of it.
At this time, he licked the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth, and continued to stand in place with his tomahawk. looked at Jiang Yue and asked, "You say, will the thieves fall for the scheme?" Still is...... We were counter-ambushed! โ
Drops of viscous blood dripped down the blade of the axe......
Although Jiang Yue, who was calm, said that he wanted to kill him for revenge at any time, he knew that it was not the time. Moreover, he knew very well that Nahart was cheating on him.
said: "The thieves don't know our plan, how can they fight back against the ambush." โ
His answer was obviously very satisfying to Nahat, but he still had to see if this group of guinea pigs would hook Bai Zhongran out.
Not far from them, fortunately the terrain here is not single, a natural jungle. Bai Zhongran and Que Ye witnessed this scene......
Que Ye said vigilantly: "Is this really his trap?" โ
"No, not a trap. It's Jiang Yue who is about to be discovered! We don't have time, we have to take advantage of Jiang Yue's unsubdued to kill Nahat in one fell swoop! Bai Zhongran made a decision immediately.
He also stopped thinking about the 'prophecy of enlightenment' all the time.
But at this moment, a priest came forward with a girl and said, "Sage, we have caught her, she has been following us. โ
The girl struggled and shouted discontentedly, "What do you call her!?" Call me Captain! Head! I am the biggest officer of the arbitration panel! โ
