"Unidentified troops?" Li Xiang and the others, who rode their horses to the front, looked at each other when they heard this.

Lesa explained, "The scouts have only discovered the whereabouts of the opposing army from a distance, and they have not yet discovered whether the other side is friend or foe. ”

The relationship between countries is very complicated, although at this moment, the human kingdoms in the world of Iber are temporarily able to unite with the outside world because of the invasion of the 'demon race'. But that doesn't mean they're going to work closely with each other. On the surface, you may be able to maintain the appearance of hello, me, hello, and everyone, but there will definitely be no shortage of things like stumbling and setting up traps in secret, and if you really believe the other party completely, you must not even know how to die - in fact, this is not only the case between countries, but also between various forces in the same kingdom. Allies such as the Crossing Crowd and the Leopold family are rare.

The traversers did not panic because of the sudden appearance of the unknown army, but commanded the alchemy soldiers under their command to form a separate formation from the marching team of the expeditionary force, echoing the momentum of the Prairly army.

"Xiaoxue," Fu Bin looked at Yang Lixue. "Go and scout."

Yang Lixue nodded when she heard this, then raised her left hand and waved it in the air, and a silver owl appeared out of thin air, and then under the command of Yang Lixue's mind, an eagle whistled and flew into the distance. Then Yang Lixue's left hand brushed in front of her left eye, synchronizing her left eye gaze with the owl released.

“…… Got it. After a while, Yang Lixue suddenly said: "Two o'clock direction (due east and north), two kilometers away...... The size of the team is very large, and the preliminary estimate is that the number of people exceeds 10,000...... The flag headed by the flag is...... Hey? There are two sides? One flag is a golden flag, with a sword painted in the middle and silver wings...... The other flag is ......"

Before Yang Lixue finished speaking, the sound of the scout's horn in front of her came again, different from the previous short-frequency rapid horn sound, this time it turned from a low to a high-pitched long horn sound.

"Alarm cleared!" "Alarm cleared!" "Alarm cleared!" The leaders of each phalanx shouted loudly at the same time after hearing the news, and the sergeants who formed their own formations centered on them immediately lifted their guard posture when they heard the order, and the team regrouped as a whole.

"It looks like a false alarm." Seeing that the regular legions were all unguarded, the crossing crowd was immediately relieved.

"Drawing of a golden flag, a sword, and a silver wing." Li Xiang asked, "Which country's flag is this?" ”

"......" Yang Qianyu groaned for a while, looked at Yang Lixue and asked, "Xue'er, you just said that there are two flags at the head." What does that other flag look like. ”

"A white flag with a red drawing hourglass pattern and a blue lightning bolt in the center." Yang Lixue replied.

"......" Yang Qianyu closed his eyes and thought for a while when he heard this, then opened his eyes and said, "It seems that the army on the other side should be from two countries." ”

"Two countries? Combined March? Fu Bin looked at Yang Qianyu.

Yang Qianyu took out a scroll from his arms (actually opened the storage space) and opened it, only to see that a map of the area was simply outlined with charcoal.

In the human kingdom of the world of Iber, there is no real 'world map'. The maps drawn up in the human kingdoms are only as detailed as possible about the areas of their own countries - by the way, in the world of Iber, where there is no professional mapping, even the maps of their own domestic areas are often quite wrong.

However, countries are not all 'closed off from other countries' like not communicating with other countries, through various official or unofficial communication channels, countries can also obtain other countries' national regional maps through various channels, when as for the accuracy of the map obtained, it is difficult to say, but together with each other, you can always make up a similar level of 'world map' - despite such flaws and omissions, but the military value of this LOW version of the world map is still self-evident, in any country is highly confidential, easily will not leak.

There is no formal way to obtain detailed maps, so they can only buy some rough maps that have been further cut from the castrated version through underground channels (Yang Qianyu commented that they are 'better than graffiti'), which can only be used as a reference at best.

At present, this map is hand-drawn by Yang Qianyu when he was idle before, using the maps published in various places collected and combined with the information on ancient books, although this kind of map may not be very accurate, but Yang Qianyu is confident that after combining the summary and analysis of multiple data, the simplified version of the map he made will not make too many errors even if there are errors.

"Come and see." Yang Qianyu's finger drew a route on the map, and then said: "This is the route we are currently traveling, and according to the starting point and direction of our exit (stepping out of the border of the Tristrem Kingdom), it is speculated that the army that can appear in the east of our team should come from one or more of the five principalities of 'Principality of Aubu', 'Principality of Zaft', 'Principality of Amalikon', 'Principality of Onoba' and 'Principality of Ixia'. ”

"Cher said before that there are two flags at the beginning, and these five principalities are formed into two factions that are hostile to each other, one of which is the 'Orb-Zaft' alliance camp, and the other is the 'Amelikon-Onoba-Isha' alliance camp. Since the army that is currently appearing has two main flags, it is certain that it is an army from the two principalities of Orb and Zaft. ”

"I have read in a volume that the principalities of Orb and Zaft are rich in high-quality and rare metals, but because of their geographical location, salt production is not high. There are many high-quality salt wells in the northern region of the Kingdom of Tristram, where we are located, so the kingdom and the two principalities have always traded minerals and salt. Because trading commodities are a scarce commodity that both sides need, diplomatic relations between the two sides are quite good. This explains why the regular legions were de-alerted. The other side is more or less an ally......"

Listening to Yang Qianyu's explanation, all the companions nodded as if they didn't understand.

"I said," Ruan Kunpeng looked at Yang Qianyu like a monster, "where did you get this information?" ”

"It's good to look through the world's literature on a regular basis." Yang Qianyu put away the map and replied: "Regarding the relationship between the Tristram Kingdom and Orb and Zaft, I accidentally found it from a literary and historical document more than ten years ago. ”

"More than ten years ago......" Fu Bin subconsciously rubbed the bridge of his nose and asked, "Is this information accurate?" ”

"It should be accurate," Yang Qianyu replied: "The scholar who wrote this volume has also written a lot of historical documents, and judging from other sources, the credibility is still good." ”

Fu Bin nodded when he heard this, and said no more.
