Chapter 669: Expanding East and Swallowing West (7) Travelers' Journeys

After the change of commander-in-chief, the new commander-in-chief partially retained Hades's strategy, but abolished Hades's conservative actions, and instead gathered a large army and prepared to sneak attack a Sibber's flank troops, trying to rely on the number of people to bully the few people, to achieve victory in a local war, one is to restore the decadent confidence, and the other is to establish his own prestige.

However, Ruiying Maiqiu's strategy was inquired about by Siber early, so Sibo planned and deliberately sent a division of troops to march to Harosi to lure Ruiying Maiqiu, and Ruiying Maiqiu stepped on the bait after a short period of temptation, and the "Battle of Halosi" broke out.

The Battle of Harlosi that broke out in 2538 was a brilliant victory for Siber, almost wiping out the troops that Rui Ying Maiqiu still had combat effectiveness, so that Rui Ying Maiqiu could no longer muster the strength of the field battle in a short time.

Seeing this, Sibo simply changed the battle plan, the second army sent troops from Nolanza Province to contain the main force of Ruiying Maiqiu, and the first army passed through Linna Province, one is to recover the lost territory of Linna Province, and the other is to recover Carsus in Linna Province, and directly attack Kodomi, the capital of Ruiying Maiqiu!

"As long as Kedomi is captured, Ruiying Maiqiu will definitely be frightened, and if you can cut off the communication between the north and south ends of Ruiying Maiqiu, it can be said that the overall situation has been decided," Commander Sibo said confidently.

For Siber's strategy of purely overwhelming people, even if Hades comes to power, there is no good way to face the field elite that Ruiying Maiqiu has lost out, and the only way he can come up with is to sacrifice the northern provinces, and he will be stationed in Linna Province, and hold out until Ruiying Maiqiu can scavenge an elite again.

At this time in Warutu, a border outpost was confirming the authenticity of a mercenary passage document, and the commander of the outpost frowned and read the text: "Ancestor Mercenary Regiment of Slave Hunters......"

"Hey, have you heard of slave hunting a few years ago? The first one to hunt slaves was this mercenary group in my Togodo, so I can be worthy of being the ancestor of slave hunting," the speaker was a silver-gray haired man, although his face was full of wrinkles, but with the cooperation of that devouring gaze and scar, he was full of murderous aura from a distance.

"Alright," continued the outpost commander, as to the reason why the mercenary group had been allowed to return home, "escort Lieutenant Colonel Carl Acaccia back to the Dima Academy...... Why would a lieutenant colonel have to go back to Dima Academy to defend himself, and then be eligible for a mercenary group to be hired?"

At this time, the target of the mercenary escort, Lieutenant Colonel Carl Akasia, came out of the middle of the group, he was a slightly thin man, his hair that should have been golden had also turned yellow, and he wore a mask on his face, covering half of his face, and as he approached, the commander faintly smelled a foul smell, which seemed to emanate from under the mask.

"I published some articles, and I was valued by the Dima Academy, so I was told to go back, and you look at my face," Lieutenant Colonel Acacia pointed to his face, and the sergeant's face became even more ugly, so he nodded and let them go.

Next, the party rested at the outpost for the night before continuing on the road, and when they reached the wilderness, in order to pass the time, the mercenary captain Togodo and Akasha began to chat.

"Lieutenant Colonel Akaxia, your face is wounded like this, why don't you go and fix it with healing potions?" asked Togoto.

"I'm a debilitating mage, and I'm born to restrain a lot of potions, and this thing is the festering caused by the remnants of the devil worshippers, and it can't be cured at all, as for going to the altar and asking those high-ranking priests to cast spells, hehe, my family doesn't have the spare money to give me this illegitimate son who lives to be less than 50 years old to do this. ”

Hearing this, Togodo suddenly understood, why is this Akaxia's surname Carl, a word that is usually used as a name, I am afraid that it is most likely that the father of this illegitimate child is called Carl, but Togoto, who is well-versed in human affairs, will not deliberately point out this: "Then you have to hurry up and treat it, I'm afraid that Dima Academy won't be able to repair it after a long time." ”

The two chatted for a while, and the topic turned to why Akashya was recalled to Dima, and the two have become more and more familiar in the past few days, so Togodo can finally ask this question that makes him curious.

"I wrote an article about the incidence of the city of Raymond, and it was considered groundbreaking by the Dima Academy, so I was called. ”

Togo knew that the article written by Akaxia must not be as simple as he described, but Akaxia chose simple words in order to make what he said to be semi-literate.

"What about you, Mr. Togodo, I noticed that your last name is 'Slave Hunter,' which is certainly not your original last name, is it?" asked Akasia.

Hearing this question, Togo was silent for a long time before he confided slightly: "Do you remember the bubble more than 40 years ago? My father died in that bubble, and then my mother took me and my siblings to join my uncle, and as a result, my uncle was a scum and treated us harshly, so I ran away when I grew up a little and went out for more than 30 years. ”

Togodo also concealed many truths, such as the reason why his father Arabi died in the bubble was because Arabi was the promoter of the bubble, for example, the reason why his uncle treated them harshly was because he thought Arabi was a scum and all the money he obtained was ill-gotten gains, so he took it all by him.

For another example, after Togodo went out to wander more than 30 years ago and became rich by catching slaves, he took cruel revenge on his uncle and avenged the revenge of his childhood.

"Then Mr. Togo, you are in your fifties, why do you still want to come out to be a mercenary, and you can still enter the battlefield?" asked Akasha again.

"Well, I'm unlucky, maybe I killed too many slaves when I was young, I got married in my thirties, and now I have a son and a daughter, all of whom are still very young, so I can only go to join the army, and retire from the regular army after 6 years of service, but I can't be idle, so I set up a branch of the mercenary group here, and I can eat a little bit of food. ”

"Aren't you going to the south? The south is full of barbarians who have not fully evolved, so it should be easier than begging for a life on the battlefield, right?" asked Akasha, who had never been to the land of the southern barbarians, curiously.

Togodo sighed, and from this tone Akaxia immediately sensed that there were undoubtedly countless people over the years who had asked the same questions as himself.

"In the south, the barbarians can't beat us, they can't beat the regular army, as for the personal combat effectiveness, it's half a catty, and even if you count the geographical advantages, maybe the barbarians will be slightly better, they are all knives licking blood and fighting for their lives. ”

"Plus I'm old, and the south is the kind of plague-ridden place, and I'll die if I stay any longer, really, so I stepped down from my position as the captain of the mercenary group, kept my shares and went home to enjoy my old age," and then Togodo smiled self-deprecatingly, "Of course, you see that I can't be idle, so I'm out again, aren't I." ”

Then, Togodo introduced to Akaxia how he caught slaves, and it turned out that the most important thing for them to hunt slaves was not to go into battle themselves, but to divide and dissociate, make friends with a certain barbarian tribe, and then use this barbarian tribe to attack other barbarian tribes, so as to obtain barbarian slaves.

"Otherwise, do you think that we, the outsiders, can directly gain a foothold in the local area? I tell you, don't believe the propaganda of the troubadours, it is all nonsense to deceive you people who are in the interior and have never been to the south. ”

Then Togodo asked about the leader of the slave hunting industry in the south, and Togodo replied without hesitation: "Undoubtedly, Your Excellency Taugocha, although I was the first group of slave catchers to go to the south, he was funded, and many things were funded by him, so now the first slave hunting town we have established is called Taugocha." ”

"So, although His Excellency Taugocha didn't go in person, did he participate in every aspect of the slave hunt?"

"It's natural, Your Excellency Taugocha is a shareholder in every large slave catcher for us, and he used to be a member of Parliament, and he has provided us with many favorable bills, and he used to even sell slaves, but now that Mr. Taugocha is also old, and his son is basically in charge of things, and he has returned to his hometown and has hardly taken care of things. ”

After that, the whole journey was spent in a chat between Akaxia and Togodo, in fact, Togodo was mainly talking, telling him about the mysterious south for Akasia, so that Akaxia could understand that the customs were so different from the old land that they were almost the land of two ethnic groups.

However, there is no feast in the world, and after a few months of travel, Acacia finally arrived at Dima, the capital of Siber, and Togodo could only regretfully send Acacia to the door of Dima Academy, and he did not have permission to enter Dima Academy.

Dima Academy, once just a dilapidated college, was renovated for the first time more than a hundred years ago in the era of the "madman" Huls, and after the end of the "third" Siber War, Dima Academy was relocated out of the suburbs of Dima in order to build a larger and more luxurious college.

The new Dima Academy was completed in 2514, and around the newly built Dima Academy, a small town has now gathered here, which exists as a satellite town of the main city of Dima.

After saying goodbye to Togodo, Akasha walked into this magnificent academy, an academy that he could only look forward to in his dreams but never came to as an illegitimate child, but today he was going to step into the core of this academy, how could this not make Akaxia feel excited?

Akasha came to the lobby at the appointed time, sat down on the podium and asked, "Karl Akasia, are you sure that this "The Relationship between the Plague and the Layout of the City" was written by you alone?"

With Akaxia's nod, an offering tapped the table: "Then, the defense begins."

As a result, Akasia, the future father of modern medicine, came into the eyes of the world.
