Chapter 200: It Must Go South

This result greatly surprised Wu Xin, and Delia, who knew the least about the situation, didn't have much doubt.

"Hey, is Abdullah Menois the number three man in the French occupation forces?" Delia also gets a hint that the mission is complete. "Abdullah Menuwa is dead, the French attack team is all wiped out, reward three hundred fate points, Menua carries a scroll of fifth-level magic, Vikna's Touch."

Her reward is a little worse than Wu Xin's, but it's also excellent.

This "Vikena Touch" is necromancy magic, which can be considered an enhanced version of "Vampire Touch".

After she told Wu Xin about the reward, Wu Xin fell into thinking, thinking that consumed brain cells extremely much.

In the battle, about thirty French soldiers were killed, and about the same number died in the process of fleeing.

There are still more than fifty remaining enemies, and if you want to kill them all, you have to sink all those small boats, how is this done?

Joel played a huge role as an undercover agent, so he was given Menuwa's gloves with "vampire touches".

This is a valuable trophy, the glove itself allows the wielder to hold the weapon more securely, making it easier to hit the target, and with this instant triggering magic effect, it can be considered a simple elite-level item.

However, the old fisherman still frowned a little, this glove is not small.

However, a single spell would consume a full hundred thalers' casting materials, and only one shot could be stored in the glove, which meant that a single encounter could only be triggered once.

Others were rewarded, with Villefort's "agility" leather armor from the Ranger becoming a trophy that could be brought back to the Overworld.

Villefort, who was stirring on the poor Egyptian girl, suddenly let out a roar of excitement.

And Yara and Cormona are just fate points.

After thinking for a while, Wu Xin asked the two ladies outside to ask: "Was Menois seriously injured by Villefort at that time?" ”

Only Villefort's dagger could cause delayed death.

Yara was involved in the pursuit. At one point, she and Villefort rushed in front of Menois for a final rear-end chase, and she was surprised by the result: "Villefort's dagger is said to be able to directly injure internal organs, but at that time, it was obviously blocked by a female ranger, so she died." ”

Cormona also felt that Menuwa was not mortally wounded, but since Yara felt that Menuwa did not deserve to die. She would rather not take a position than go along with Yara.

Of course, she didn't deliberately screw it, after all, Alpha said that Menuwe was dead.

Delia didn't know the process of the battle, she talked to Cormona for a while, and only then did she understand the situation in general, and said to Wu Xin: "Since Alpha has confirmed it, the French general must be dead, but none of his subordinates seem to have escaped, and all the French who witnessed you are dead, so Cairo may not know that you are going to excavate the ancient royal tomb of Thebes." In that case, doesn't that have an impact on your plans? ”

"Menois is dead, and Napoleon will certainly pay attention to us." Wu Xin had originally intended to lure Napoleon to the south by presenting himself as a Bourbon prince and with the support of the local Copts to collect real ancient pharaonic relics.

But since a great man like Menuis died, he would certainly have brought in Napoleon, and the pride of his time was by no means an unresponsive man.

Alpha's subsequent hint also strengthened Wu Xin's judgment.

"The death of Abdullah Menuay caused great turmoil in Egypt. The locals were suspicious of the French occupation authorities' ability to control, and both the Ottoman and British empires would be encouraged. Napoleon would launch a swift retaliatory action to repel Napoleon's counterattack. ”

"The main quest is upgraded to meet Napoleon in three months, and survive the next six hours, rewarding 500 fate points for completion. Failure deducts 1,000 Destiny Points. ”

Delia looked at the quest prompt. said to Wu Xin: "Then we can't go to Nubia, right?" If Napoleon doesn't come, this deduction will not be bearable. ”

Wu Xin still did not change his original intention: "This is too close to Cairo, Napoleon will come with the power of thunder, we can't stay here, we must go to Thebes." ”

But the French are dead. How does he know what you are...... Well, the Valley of the Kings in Thebes? "Although Wu Xin's logic can't be said to be unreasonable, Yara feels that Wu Xin is thinking too much." And how can the ancient royal tombs be so easy to find, I think he will at most launch a sweep along the Nile, and if we flee south, they will retract to the coastline. ”

Thebes, in the middle reaches of the Nile, was known as the ancient capital of the Roman Empire.

There are some ancient ruins and even some ancient magical objects that are easy to accept, but no one has ever found the tomb of a pharaoh there.

Like most people, Yarra believed that the tombs of the ancient pharaohs were the pyramids, and the pyramids were the tombs of the ancient pharaohs.

Including Delia, they all think that Wu Xin's "rumor" is unlikely to really hang the enemy.

Wu Xin could no longer explain the problem to them, but only said another topic: "Believe me, Menois's death is the best outcome, Napoleon has lost his main assistant, it is impossible to be unresponsive, he will definitely react as soon as possible." ”

Menoit's death would not only attract the attention of France, but would also weaken Napoleon's ability to attack himself.

The combat power of an "elite level" disappeared in this way.

"I don't know where you got so much confidence in this Frenchman, his record is not convincing at all." Before Villefort arrived, Delia unceremoniously showed her position. "The English sailors looked down on this little man, who was said to be half a head shorter than me, and who was not even French, but Corsican."

Delia's words were completely unfair.

Even the current Napoleon, even the victory in the Black Continent does not count.

His record in northern Italy was already impressive, and his history of fighting Austria for peace with a partial division was enough to earn him an undisputed place in military history.

Delia didn't say anything more.

At this time, Villefort also returned, he was in a good mood, told Wu Xin about the loot he had gotten, and had already laid a lot of traps in front and back of this small courtyard before going to enjoy the loot.

Wu Xin also expressed satisfaction with his work. Both Colmona and Yara knew this, but neither mentioned it.

The women were clearly not happy about what he was doing.

They can accept the rules, but they can't like them.

"See the British fleet? Will the British Empire dare to go ashore? He was also quite shrewd to find out from the face of the priestess that Delia had definitely not completed Wu Xin's plan.

"Alright, alright." Wu Xin grabbed the furious Delia, and then pondered how he could convince the others to maintain confidence in Napoleon's abilities. At the same time, let Delia not give Villefort a hammer.

Muhammad Ali reappeared, just in time to relieve him.

"Your Highness, are you awake?" Mohammed Ali had been calculating when Wu Xin would recover his spell slot, and came to Wu Xin to get his support, "Although it is late, I still want to confirm with you some things tomorrow." ”

His attitude let Wu Xin know that he had already guessed that he could cast spells without casting materials, of course, in fact, "Ghost Face Technique", "Negative Energy Light", and "Treasure Smell" were all spellcasting materials. However, these few magic are used very little.

Since Wu Xin wants to show strength, he doesn't care about this little meaning.

"Sit down, I've rested anyway." Wu Xin's attitude is neither lukewarm nor hot, and the overall attitude is that I can listen to it, but this is me giving you face.

This attitude is similar to what Muhammad Ali expected, and now that the identity of the prince has been revealed, Wu Xin naturally cannot look like a Copt.

'Hmph, those Egyptian idiots. This powerful warlock wore the cloak of the Bourbon family, and he didn't even know how to please. These people are not worthy to be masters of Egypt at all. ’

Muhammad-Ali despised Murad Beyi, who still did not know where, and such an important person did not know how to tie up, the daughter of the big landowner, you can toss whenever you want.

This kind of person is his ally, his comrade-in-arms who fights together against the French army.

This made him think about it again. The battle of that day was fought by the French, but it was not much, the Turks were still shouting for battle, and the Egyptians had been defeated, and then fear was rife, and the Turks were routed together.

Although when in Istanbul. Muhammad Ali felt that the Ottoman Empire was completely decrepit, corrupt and degenerate, and that those officials and imams completely ignored the danger of the country, and took all kinds of materials into their own pockets by various means.

However, when he arrived in Egypt, he found that one mountain was even lower than the other.

These Mamluk lords in Egypt don't treat their subordinates as human beings at all, they don't know what the military pay is, they can't eat enough, they don't have tents, and even a thin blanket can't guarantee everyone's share.

If you treat people as beggars, they will naturally repay you as beggars.

Maybe without the Egyptians, it would be better for the Turks and the French to fight.

And the command of the French was really superb, how could the enemy so quickly find out where the junction of the Egyptians and the Ottomans was?

In the future, Muhammad Ali will also get such ability, and when he deals with the Ottoman army, he can always go straight to the combination of elite and miscellaneous soldiers.

But now, compared to Napoleon, he has also searched 108,000 miles.

How Mohammed Ali felt when he entered Egypt, it was really a pig-like teammate, a god-like opponent.

So he is really eager to consolidate the relationship with Wu Xin's teammate, not for the possible French network behind him, the Bourbon family is in trouble after all, and he doesn't know if he can do it again.

All he knew was that the handsome little prince was brave and skilled, more valiant than any spellcaster he had ever seen.

"Tomorrow we will have a meeting to decide the future movements, please Your Highness, you must support my proposal, hold the stronghold to collect the defeated troops, and there is no way out if you continue to flee south." He knew that Wu Xin was courageous, and he also hoped that Wu Xin would see her courage, "Your Highness must have seen it in today's battle, compared to the Mamluk soldiers, our Turkish soldiers are the ones who are really combative, and if you continue to flee south, it will be difficult to collect the defeated soldiers." ”

Wu Xin is also very concerned about this issue: "How many troops have recovered so far?" ”

It's been more than half a day since that battle, and the defeated soldiers nearby should know the news.

"Well....... there are probably more than two hundred Turks and more than a hundred Egyptians, we already control several manors in the vicinity, and there will be at least one day of peak tomorrow, and at least a thousand people can be gathered to control the nearby small cities." Although Muhammad Ali tried to hide it, he still changed his voice a little when he said the number.

There was only a small lone lamp in the small courtyard, and Wu Xin then looked at this Ottoman leader who was about the same age as himself, he was only in his twenties at most, with a straight face and a heroic posture.

Although he still looks energetic, he still hasn't changed his clothes, and he is covered with ashes, so he must have been busy all day.

His hard work further reflected the unsatisfactory situation, although it was very cruel, but Wu Xin still had to ask: "Your more than 200 people and more than 100 people, are you counting the original 200 people?" ”

If, after the victory, there are three or four hundred defeated soldiers recovered, then it is okay, but if you count the more than two hundred people who fought today, there are only more than three hundred people in total, it will be bad.

Muhammad Ali opened his mouth and did not speak directly, as if thinking about how to answer.

His hesitation had already let Wu Xin know the answer, and Wu Xin sighed: "Ali, you must know that the twenty-four hours after the flag is re-raised is the period when the defeated troops take refuge in the most, and there will be fewer and fewer in the future." I don't think we'll get many soldiers even if we insist here. ”

Muhammad Ali had already figured out this truth, but he had no choice, the direction of the Ottoman army's advance was from north to south, and most of the soldiers naturally had to flee to the north near Istanbul after the defeat.

Only he was unwilling to become a junior officer again, and wanted to rely on his limited and short-lived prestige in the defeated army to make a career.

Wu Xin continued: "Let's go into the house and talk." ”

In fact, Muhammad Ali had had the water refilled into the pool, and it was comfortable to talk in the courtyard, but the invitation was still a proof of friendliness.

Although there were traps under Villefort's men around this room, and Murad Bey did not think of spying on them at all, Wu Xin's words showed a great deal of kindness.

Villefort wanted to follow up, but was stopped by Delia, who knew that Wu Xin needed an atmosphere to talk alone.

Colmona glared at Villefort as well.

Villefort cursed this little white face in his heart, and he could only curse this little white face in his heart.

There were only two people in the room, and as soon as Mohammed Ali entered the room, he offered Wu Xin a glass of water.

Wu Xin nodded, accepted it arrogantly, and then motioned for him to have a drink as well.

Muhammad Ali was indeed thirsty, in fact he had not slept since last night.

He was exhausted, but he was determined to convince Wu Xin to support his plan to fight back on the spot, and only by waging a guerrilla war here could he retrieve more Turkish soldiers.

The farther south he went, the slimmer his career became.

However, Wu Xin's attitude was also extremely firm, and he also proposed a solution to Muhammad Ali's predicament. (To be continued......)
