Thousands of miles in a day, 800 in a night!

That's all about thousands of horses, the real army marching speed, it is difficult to travel a hundred miles a day, and even, in ancient military documents, you have to set up camp if you travel thirty miles a day, otherwise, if you are attacked by the enemy, there will be a danger of annihilation.

Of course, this would not be the case in such a magical world, but Link's expeditionary force could march at most three hundred miles a day.

Naturally, this is also because there are only 3,000 cavalry in the expeditionary force, and the other 7,000 troops are all infantry troops, and at the same time, there are also heavy infantry that slows down the march the most.

The next evening!

A scout horse galloped in, but it was a messenger sent by Huang Xin, the vanguard of the army, and it turned out that thirty miles ahead had reached Hobbes City.

As the neighbor city of Alex City, this Hobbs City is naturally also a neighbor of the Hope Leader, not to mention, before the 100,000 allied troops attacked the Hope Territory, Hobbs City also sent 5,000 infantry to help, and in the end, even the Baron Justin led by them was seriously wounded in the battle against Taiping Pass, and as for the 5,000 infantry, there were more than 1,000 casualties.

Another 1,000 were captured and imprisoned in a prison until the ransom was paid.

So, Link waved his hand:

"Tell General Huang Xin to find a suitable place outside Hobbes City and set up camp and wait for the arrival of the army!"

The probe horse galloped away, Lin Chong waved his hand, and said loudly:

"Thirty miles of rapid march, set up camp outside the city of Hobbes!"

Suddenly, 7,000 soldiers, including heavy cavalry, heavy infantry, pikemen, sword and shield soldiers, crossbowmen, and archers, did not wait for the urging of their respective leaders, and directly threw off their steps and strode forward.

Bai Sheng rode to Link's side and asked in a low voice:

"My lord, we only carried three days' worth of grain and grass!"

Link asked lightly:

"So what?"

Bai Sheng's words were stagnant, and then he said euphemistically:

"Today is the second day, and tomorrow evening we will not have enough food and grass!"

Link turned his head, looked at Bai Sheng and nodded, and said directly:

"That's what you said, then you will enter Hobbes City tonight with my name and ask them to supply us, according to the report of Shi Qian's subordinate sentries, the army of Hobbes City will also set off tomorrow morning, and I think there should be a lot of grain and grass for them to raise!"

"My lord, what if they don't give it?" Bai Sheng asked worriedly, the two sides were hostile before, and the soldiers of Hobbs City were also seriously injured in the Hope Territory, and even Baron Justin who led the team was seriously injured!

Link squinted his eyes slightly, and said coldly:

"If you don't give it, you will come back and do it tomorrow morning!"

……

The moonlight is hazy!

Ten miles north of Hobbes, the pioneer officer Huang Xin found an excellent place to camp, and at the same time, the road to the city of Bellas would also pass through this place, eliminating the hardship of detours.

Therefore, the expeditionary force was very satisfied, and Lin Chong and Hua Rong were naturally responsible for camping and patrolling, and Link sat in the big tent early, waiting for Bai Sheng's return, but Bai Sheng had entered Hobbes City for two hours, but there was still no reply.

So, when Lin Chong came to report that all the arrangements for the camp were completed, Lin Ke still said one more thing:

"Tonight, take precautions!"

Lin Chong thought about it, and left straight to change patrols, sentry posts, and deployment, and even arranged a secret sentry next to the bright sentry, and at the same time, a team of secret agents with soul birds scattered around the main roads, even if the enemy came from, they could take precautions as quickly as possible.

Inside the camp, it has entered a state of looseness on the outside and tightness on the inside.

Subsequently, the two commanders Lin Chong and Hua Rong, as well as the eight leaders of Su Sheng, Huang Xin, Pang Wanchun, Zou Run, Zou Yuan, Jiao Ting, Zhou Tong, and Li Zhong came to the big tent where Lin Ke was, plus Bai Sheng who sent the envoy and Yu Baosi who guarded the expedition, there were a total of twelve heroes in this expeditionary force.

"My lord, tonight is not peaceful!"

Lin Chong tactfully reminded that as a real general, they will have a premonition in the dark, and when danger comes, they will have an alarm in their hearts.

Hua Rong nodded and agreed:

"Yes, Hai Dongqing explored the surrounding ten miles, and everything was too calm, but Hobbs City directly opened the city's defensive magic array, and what is puzzling is the arrival of our army, not only did they ignore it, but they didn't even arrange for a sentry, which is really unreasonable."

"Since it is abnormal, then something will definitely happen, let's take precautions, and then sit back and watch what happens!"

Link said lightly, defining the action.

Time flies!

Lin Chong and Hua Rong took turns patrolling the territory, and the other eight leaders did the same, especially the Rui Shi Battalion guarding the Chinese army, the second-order swordsmen were already all armed with swords and silver spear marksmen, each leading the horse, ready to deal with the enemy's attack at any time.

In a blink of an eye, it was already two o'clock in the morning!

However, everyone is also a veteran of the battlefield, so naturally they will not be nervous, even those soldiers of the expeditionary force have almost all experienced the battle of Taiping Pass, and the last supplementary swordsmen are all from the rout of other time and space, and they are also experienced in a hundred battles.

So, they all know that the wee hours of the morning are the most dangerous time and when the enemy may sneak attack. So, Hua Rong took Zou Run and Zou Yuan to patrol the camp and wake up the sleeping soldiers so that they could get ready.

That's preparedness!

In the blink of an eye, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and the camp of the expeditionary force was silent, but if anyone could skim through the layers of darkness, they would find that everyone was waiting and ready to attack, but the expected enemy was nowhere to be seen.

For a while, even the soldiers who had the most confidence in the lord gradually complained, which was inevitable. It must be known that they had been marching five or six hundred miles for two days in a row, and just when they needed to recuperate, they were awakened to guard against the enemy.

Now that the enemy has not arrived, it would be strange if there were no complaints.

However, just when Link thought that Hobbs City was not in danger, a figure suddenly appeared in the tent, it was Link's attendant officer-Bai Sheng, I saw that he was covered in blood and panting at this time, and he almost fell to the ground as soon as he appeared in the big tent.

Jiao Ting rushed up to support Bai Sheng, but was pushed away by Bai Sheng, and said loudly to Link:

"My lord, Hobbs City wants to sneak up on our expeditionary force at night!"

At this moment, Hua Rong's Hai Dongqing flew down on his shoulder, and then, a scene appeared in front of everyone-

In the dim forest, thousands of soldiers are winding their way......
