Section 79 Distress
Just as he hesitated, Clark came in with a salivating face.
"Report!" The hippie smiled and gave a military salute.
Mark smiled with relief when he saw this, and estimated that this kid had learned this set of tricks by pestering Carl, although it was not standard, but it was also presentable, but his attitude was a little less serious.
"Major, there's a beautiful woman looking for you!"
Clarke's usual tone was used to it.
Just as he was about to invite someone in, a fiery red figure flashed in.
I saw that Laurena was wearing silver armor, and a scarlet cloak fluttered as she rushed in.
A sword on his waist with a delicate hilt.
The hand pressed against the hilt of the sword was pale from the grip, and the pretty face was the same color as the knuckles.
Lorenna was in a hurry to enter the door, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes.
"Huh~"
Before Mark could open his mouth to ask, the visitor threw himself into his arms.
Seeing this, Clark winked at Mark and said, "I still have something." And he departed without losing time.
"Mark. Help me! Snuggling up to her shoulder, Lorenna couldn't stop crying.
"What's going on?" Mark was surprised, he had never seen the unruly princess pear blossom with rain.
Lorena sobbed, her eyes were already red and swollen like peaches, and she sobbed: "My father is besieged and in critical condition, you must help me." ”
"Don't worry, I'll definitely figure it out. But it's better to tell me what happened? You sit down and speak slowly, the more detailed it is, the better it is for the development of events. ”
Gently cupped Laurenna's face, looked at her delicate face, and asked in a very gentle tone.
I don't know how to appease someone, especially a princess like Laurenna.
A hug may soothe a person's anxious state of mind, and the calmer and gentler the tone, the more she can relieve her nervousness.
Sure enough, Lorenna stopped crying and told the story in detail.
Laurenna's father had seen it himself, and sure enough, it was the majestic old man.
He was the Prince of Kansas and Robert's uncle.
The main forces of Kansas are in his hands, and Valen is also his subordinate.
Prince Philip has been fighting the Mechanical Legion for a long time, has a lot of combat experience, and is a cautious man himself.
Since the day of the God of War, the Mechic Legion has invaded, and a large number of people have died during the celebration, weakening the power of Kansas.
In order to stop the attack of the Machine Legion, Philip had to pour out of the nest.
The fierce war continued, and the national power of Kansas withered.
In order to replenish the army, a large number of civilians had to be drawn into the war as recruits, so that only the old, weak, sick and disabled people were left in Kansas City, which was extremely deserted.
The Prince's command originally commanded three-quarters of the Empire's forces, and he has been working to resist the Mechic Legion.
It has always adopted the strategy of taking defense as an offensive, holding on to dangerous terrain and not attacking, except for some small-scale sweeps.
The two sides are at a stalemate, a situation that could have lasted for some time.
It was only someone who provided information that there had been an energy station of the Mech Corps somewhere along the Kansas border.
The energy station is very large, and it provides most of the energy for the mechanical legion.
The informants continued to instigate Robert to launch an attack in a vain attempt to destroy the energy station in order to achieve a once and for all effect.
Robert racked his brains to win the war, and from time to time he consulted with Prince Philip.
Despite his best efforts to prevent it, the person who provided the information was in a prominent position, and this person was the president of the Presbyterian Church.
After his constant lobbying, Robert decided to take a gamble.
The prince had no choice but to carry it out.
He divided his troops into two routes, leaving half of his troops to hold the fortress and the other half under his own command, and went to raid the energy station.
Maybe the team was huge, maybe there was a reason, but in short, more than half of the march was besieged by the mechanical legion.
Although Prince Philip is old and strong, and his men are like a cloud, in the face of a powerful offensive, he can only retreat into the mountains to defend.
The mechanical legion has strong firepower and is numerous, and he faces the possibility of being surrounded and annihilated.
In desperation, he sent a communications soldier to Kansas for help.
Several waves of helpers came, and all of them were annihilated until one of them survived.
Robert was shocked to learn of this and sent Lancer to relieve the siege.
However, Lancer shirked the fact that the troops were too small and the combat effectiveness was not strong, and he shirked the blame on the grounds that he was assembling.
When Laurena learned of this, she was furious and begged Robert to come to the rescue.
But Robert had no troops to send, and once the fortress was lost, Kansas was in no danger.
Laurenna had no choice but to go to Lancer again.
Lancer says that he is going to leave in the near future and suggests that Lorenna come to him, and there is an opening scene.
After listening to Laurenna's crying, Mark pondered for a long time, silently thinking of countermeasures in his heart.
There were less than forty people in the camp combined.
Although after the last battle, it was only a small-scale ambush, compared to the positional warfare of tens or even hundreds of thousands of people, it was like a pediatric.
Even if Philip can be "fished" out of the thousands of troops of the Mechic Legion, what should be done with the remaining troops?
Why don't you watch them being exterminated?
After half of the legions were wiped out, the national power of Kansas was weakened, could the fortress still hold on?
In the face of such a deep fiasco, how could the prince follow and escape with peace of mind?
Her request may be fulfilled, but from the perspective of the overall situation, it cannot be done.
Laurenna kept looking at Mark, and saw that he looked attentive and contemplative, and looked at him in a daze.
Serious men are the cutest, and Laurenna knows this in her heart.
It's just that the situation is critical, so I can't think about it.
After pondering for a long time, I felt that Wang Qiang and the others should be called over to discuss together, after all, the incident was tricky and abnormal.
"Clark!" Mark called.
"Here!"
Clark didn't go far, maybe he had been waiting outside the door.
With the shout, he ran into the room like a fly.
"Major, you call me?"
"Gather Wang Qiang, Tucker, and Winston. I would like to convene an ad hoc meeting. ”
"Order!"
Clark was still in a hurry.
Before everyone arrived, Mark had doubts in his heart: "The prince is in a difficult situation, I already know. However, there are still many questions in my mind, and I hope you can answer my questions truthfully. ”
"My father is my only relative, and I wouldn't want to live without him. Huh~" Lorenna choked up.
"If you have any questions, just ask, as long as I know, I'll tell you everything."
Worried about her father's safety, Lorenna's eyes flashed, full of sincerity.
"The whole thing was obviously triggered by a piece of intelligence, so who is the person who provided the information?" Mark gets straight to the point.
Laurenna shook her head, already knowing the answer from her confused eyes.
"Are you familiar with this council leader?" Mark asked again.
"You mean Todd?" Laurena was not surprised, apparently familiar with Todd.
"Well, tell me what kind of person Todd is?" Mark asked.
"Todd is an old friend of his father. Also Robert's uncle. Laurenna has known each other since she was a child, and she raised her mouth and said.
"Oh? Can you describe Todd's appearance, personality, and behavior? Mark asked again.
