"That's right, it's our job to keep the fortress safe, and as long as the fortress is okay, we're done." Sha Huoman said: "Lord Earl wants to try a new method of warfare, of course we cooperate, to receive the merchants and people who have escaped from Xiangcheng, it is not a big problem for the current Divine Fortress, haven't we always found the fortress too boring?" Now it is possible to have so many more people, obviously it will not become too boring, and maybe the Marquis's plan can succeed, because there have always been contradictions between the four northern kingdoms and the Shuka Kingdom, and the reason why Xiangcheng is still nominally owned by the empire is also because of such a contradiction, and the Marquis is very aware of such contradictions, and it is not too strange for three hundred people to receive Xiangcheng, the key depends on how to do it. ’

"That's right," Wan Qi Dak is a wise and brave person, he should be the number one master of the fortress legion who knows martial arts and magic, nodded, and Duck said.."And I have known Wei Mang for six years, when he served in the fortress, we were best friends, I have never seen him listen to another person so carefully and carefully, and I never thought that he would willingly become someone else's subordinate, and the person who can make Wei Mang approve must have his merits." ’

Capri was not familiar with Wei Mang, so he asked suspiciously, 'Why?' ’

Sha Huoman smiled and said, "In the seventeenth battle for the defense of the fortress, he led five thousand garrisons and fended off two hundred thousand enemies alone for nineteen days and nights, and he was the one who I remember at that time he was only a hundred cavalry commanders!" ’

After hearing this, Capri felt even more puzzled, and continued to ask: "He is a hundred horsemen. How is it possible to lead five thousand men? ’

Because he put all the ten thousand horsemen and ten thousand horsemen under house arrest. for they did not listen to him. Darker said with a wry smile..' Like him, I was an ordinary captain of 100 cavalry, and I was also a member of the 5,000 garrison, and less than a quarter of the 5,000 garrison at that time survived. ’

Everyone stopped talking, because no one who had served in the Divine Fortress for more than a week would not know about the seventeenth Battle of the Fortress five years ago. No one would be unaware of the role that defense battle played on the Shenfeng Fortress, because since that battle, the four northern kingdoms and the Shuka Kingdom have basically recognized the ridiculous-sounding theory that "the Shenfeng Fortress cannot be broken by the outside", and the actual creator of this theory is Wei Mang, who is now only a thousand horsemen, and it is this theory that has allowed the Shenfeng Fortress to survive a five-year period of calm, and in these five years, the battle of more than 10,000 people has hardly happened again.

Two days later, in the early morning, Rick was carefully prepared. With Herot, Chriss, and Gyokuro, under the protection of the Four Guards. With Wei Mang and the three hundred sergeants, he walked out of the north gate of the Shenfeng Fortress and officially embarked on the road to Xiangcheng.

In addition to Sha Huoman and Capri, who were standing on the city wall to watch them leave, the two deputy commanders and two staff members who were mixed in the crowd also saw this scene at the same time, but they did not know the purpose of this operation like the two people on the city wall, but only exchanged glances with each other and smiled slightly. It seems that he found out that this young earl is indeed a womanizer, and after not finding a suitable woman in the Qinglou of the southern city of the Shenfeng Fortress, he finally couldn't bear this kind of life, and went to the well-known ecstasy holy land Xiangcheng with great fanfare, because for several nights in a row, Rick was wandering around the southern city, and then kept complaining in front of them that the singer of the Shenfeng Fortress was low, and asked no less than ten times if there were really beautiful women in Xiangcheng.

So after staying in the Shenfeng Fortress for less than ten days, Rick left the Shenfeng Fortress with the original team and headed towards a city that was not the set goal, and it was also known as one of the most prosperous cities in the north, and from a certain point of view, it already belonged to Rick's city - Xiangcheng.

According to Wei Mang, who has served in the Shenfeng Fortress for two and a half years, if the weather is good, you can stand on the wall of the Shenfeng Fortress and see the banner of Xiangcheng on the top of the city wall.

It only took half a day, Rick and his large army came to the south gate of Xiangcheng, like most cities on the mainland, Xiangcheng also has city walls, gates and moats responsible for defending the city, but unlike other cities, the gate of Xiangcheng is never closed, it is said that the reason for this is because only in this way can any merchant arrive at Xiangcheng at any time, he can enter the city to stay, and Xiangcheng is also the only one in the north, there are hotels open at any time to welcome guests, There are restaurants that deliver fragrant meals to the city, which shows the prosperity of Xiangcheng.

Because there are too many people, Rick really can't find a place to stay for three hundred subordinates, fortunately, Wei Mang's friend is the deputy head of the Night Wolf Mercenary Regiment, one of the four major mercenary groups in Xiangcheng, so after spending half a day's work, three hundred ordinary sergeants were arranged to live in a small military camp when there was a garrison in Xiangcheng before, and gave the three hundred sergeants a task, and left enough "activity funds", Rick led Qinglu, Chrissy and Yulu, as well as Wei Mang and four guards, I stayed in the most expensive hotel in the center of Xiangcheng City, and everything was implemented according to the plan.

In just one night, at noon the next day, when Rick was invited by Li Qi, the deputy head of the Night Wolf Mercenary Regiment, to go to the Night Wolf Mercenary Regiment with Wei Mang for a banquet, there was a news that the mysterious army was pressing towards Xiangcheng, and it had already spread throughout Xiangcheng, and the people on the street were spreading rumors about how many people such a legion had, when it would arrive in Xiangcheng, and how it would turn Xiangcheng into a hell on earth, even Rick, who thought of this strategy, did not expect this strategy to be so effective and fast.

The Night Wolf Mercenary Group is located in the Nancheng District of Xiangcheng, when Rick and his party walked into the gate of the Night Wolf Mercenary Group, the team of the Night Wolf Mercenary Group, known as the seventh of the top ten mercenaries in the mainland, hugged Wei Mang, it seemed that it was a new heat for friends who had been absent for a long time to meet again, but Wei Mang was uncomfortable and tried to break free from the Night Wolf's embrace.

The night wolf is a typical northern man, more than two meters tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a face that looks a little vicissitudes of life with a beard that hides his face, and his bright eyes are not only staring at Wei Mang for a long time, but also observing Rick, who is obviously the leader of the team, and the three women behind Rick who are eye-catching.

'Brother, have you finally figured it out?' Finally not staying in that ruthless and unintentional country, thinking about accompanying my brother to fight the world in this fragrant city? 'Night Wolf said haughtily..' I said a long time ago, as long as you come to my mercenary group, brother, the position of my deputy head will always be reserved for you, remember that we only relied on five thousand men but repelled countless enemy troops? ’

Wei Mang didn't seem to care about such enthusiasm at all, and introduced very politely and even politely: "Night Wolf, let me introduce to you, this is His Excellency Xia Hua Peimeng, the first-class earl of the Blue Moon Empire and the current deputy commander of the Shenfeng Fortress, this time he came to Xiangcheng to have a cooperative Jian Yiì, and he wanted to talk to the Night Wolf Mercenary Group. ’

The night wolf put away his excited expression, his eyes began to become sharp, and after staring at Wei Mang carefully for a while, he shook his head and said, "It turns out that the fourth brother is still working hard for this ruthless and unintentional empire, okay, let me see what kind of character it is, worthy of the fourth brother's solemn recommendation to me." Turning around, Night Wolf let go of Wei Mang, and after taking a picture with Rick, he said in a tone that seemed slightly sarcastic: "Lord Earl, I am the team of the Night Wolf Mercenary Group in Xiangcheng, speaking of which, Lord Earl should be the highest lord of the empire I have ever seen, and Night Wolf is also fortunate for three lives." ’

Although Rick didn't expect such a thing to happen at all, and he didn't expect that the leader of the Night Wolf Mercenary Group would actually be Wei Mang's good friend, but through a few simple conversations, Rick quickly understood the relationship between Wei Mang and the Night Wolf, and reached out to put his arm around the green heron who was standing aside and watching the Night Wolf Mercenary Group. That's much easier, and Xiangcheng will still hire you as a permanent garrison in the future. ’

Rick's tone obviously made the night wolf extremely disgusted, and the content of the words made the night wolf even more difficult to accept, and before Wei Mang could speak, the night wolf glared at him and roared: "Your territory, where is your territory?" ’

Rick said as a matter of course: "Xiangcheng, Xiangcheng is my territory, and it surrounds Xiangcheng for fifty miles, and it is all the personal territory of my empire's first-class earl Xia Hua Peimon, if the Night Wolf Mercenary Group wants to operate in my territory in the future, it is best to have a good relationship with the garrison commander of my territory, Captain Wei Qianqi, otherwise no matter what mercenary group, it will be expelled by me." ’

After all, the night wolf is not a reckless man, after thinking about it for a while, he understands that this kind of thing cannot be Rick bragging, but logically speaking, Xiangcheng is indeed the land of the empire, and now there is suddenly an additional lord, although it feels wrong to say anything, but on the other hand, it is reasonable, so his face became cautious, after thinking about it for a while, the night wolf took a half step back and said: "The earl has come from afar, let's go first and have a cup of tea and then talk about it." ’

At this time, Xiangcheng has been panicked by the rumors of the three hundred sergeants under Rick, since last night to find a place to live to receive the activity funds, the three hundred sergeants began to haunt various public places in Xiangcheng, restaurants, hotels, brothels, green buildings, the more people there are, the more active the sergeants are, and all the sergeants in such a place, from time to time to spread such news: There is a cruel and mysterious legion, which is pressing towards Xiangcheng, and Xiangcheng has no strength to resist the attack of this legion, It is said that this legion has already caused heavy losses to the Karinkel Empire, and it is now imperative that only by hiding in the Divine Fortress, which is said to never be breached, can he save his property.
