Chapter 209: Expedition
The next day, when the people got up, they were ready to march toward the border. According to the original plan, the location of this expedition is southern Xinjiang, and the country that will be crusaded is the Philippe country, and there are many pumice stones between the southern Xinjiang and the Philippe country, which are occupied by Yuehou, Philippe and some other small countries.
The plan of this expedition in the summer is to drive out the occupiers on these pumice stones first, and then attack the Philippe Kingdom, and by the way, destroy the Yuehou Kingdom, and then clean up the Shengyang Empire. Of course, these war operations must wait until the "Scorpio Knight" is airborne.
Before preparing to leave, Queen Vlar personally came to see him off, and a large number of princes and nobles gathered in the square in front of the palace.
Vlar took Tote's hands and wrote parting words, and as she spoke, she suddenly burst into tears, leaving her confused.
"Mother, what are you crying about? Don't cry, okay, or I'll be on the road with confidence. Peach also choked up slightly.
"Taote, your father and I met on the battlefield, and we were married on the battlefield. The two of us fought side by side to build today's blazing country. When your father went on his last expedition, I happened to spoil you, and I could not accompany him on the expedition, and your father never came back on that expedition. He is the man I love most in my life, and whenever I see you, I think of your father. ”
Vlaar continued about her past: "So Dote, do you know how much your mother loves you? How can there be parents in the world who don't love their children? I can also feel the love between you and Roy, but you also know the rules of our Blazing Royal Family, and the confinement of the door can only be broken through with strength. That's why I agreed to let you go to conquer the world, in fact, how reluctant I am to you in my heart, you are only 16 years old, and you have to leave your mother to fight the world......"
"Mother, don't worry," said Tote, hugging Vlaar and comforting her, "my daughter will definitely take extra care of her safety." My daughter swears to you that it doesn't matter if you can win the mountain, your daughter's safety will always come first. ”
"Uh-huh," Vlaar said with a smirk, "be safe." Can you come back alive and well? ”
After that, Vlaar said to Roy: "Roy, your daughter loves you, you have to treat her well, this time you have to follow the glorious expedition, you have to build up some merits, you can come back to marry my daughter, can you do it?" ”
Roy knelt down and said: "Your Majesty relax, this expedition, Roy vows to make meritorious contributions, otherwise he will have no shame to marry the princess." ”
Vlaar said, "Get up and remember what you said today." ”
Xia said goodbye to the queen and said, "Your Majesty, this farewell, we will not see each other until thirty days later." In the early days of my expedition, I just wanted to keep me logistically recharged. With the melee of the conquest, the battlefield will get farther and farther away, so the supply will slowly not keep up, but it doesn't matter, when the time comes, the supply will figure it out on my own. All you have to do is sit at home and wait for a month to take over the entire Sky. ”
"I hope you don't let me down."
"Wait. It's a long way to go, and it's time for us to go. ”
After saying goodbye, more than 100 horsemen took off from the palace and flew south.
Summer sits behind Roy, Minael sits behind Tote, and Millon sits behind Walsu, for a total of 110 rides. Several of them were dragging so-called overhead cranes, which contained supplies, including arrows, clothing, and food.
The phoenix flew up quickly, and the wind swished on the face, and at first it felt quite cool, but then I felt that the wind cut on the face like a knife. At the beginning of the flight, everyone was also very interested, especially Taote, who went out for the first time and felt very fresh, chattering with Minaer behind her.
Summer sat behind Roy, the two of them were originally two species, and they were both non-talkative people, so they were silent all the way. However, Summer is just silent with him, and occasionally has to communicate with Qiling in a human-machine exchange. Roy knew that Summer liked to talk to himself, so he didn't ask him what he was muttering.
"Qiling, have you conducted intelligence reconnaissance around us?" Summer asked.
"Don't worry, my lord, fireflies have a 500-kilometer flight radius, and I will detect them within at least 100 kilometers." Qi Ling replied.
"That's good."
The Phoenix Knights flew in formation for a whole day, stopping several times at the overhanging peaks and pumice rocks along the way. At first, everyone was very interested, but in the end, with the long-distance flight, everyone became more and more bored, and finally they simply fell silent.
In the evening, the formation stopped at a pumice stone called "Da Luo Shi". The pumice stone is not very large, and there are no inns or inns to stay in. There were only a few arrow towers and a hundred infantry guarding them, as well as more than a thousand inhabitants.
As soon as they stopped, soldiers came up to greet them, or there was no post house to rest in, and Summer said to everyone, "We are going to camp here in the open air tonight, so let's work hard." ”
Then he asked the soldiers, "Do you have a blanket or something?" This night, the night wind is very strong, and we can't freeze any of us. ”
"Yes, yes," said the soldier, "there are still plenty of blankets in the warehouse, enough for the adults, but there are no tents, so they can only camp in the open air." ”
"Is there any such thing as smoked bugs?" In summer, this open-air camping, there must be many mosquitoes in the wild, although it is at an altitude of several thousand meters, but the environment here is completely suitable for the survival of mosquitoes.
"There is incense, and the stock is enough."
"Then hurry up and bring the military blankets and incense, and besides, see if you can make us something to eat." The cost is all on the head of Princess Tote, and I will go back and let the royal family supplement your military salary. In addition, these phoenixes have to feed them too. ”
"Yes, yes, let's do it." The soldier promised to do so, and although Summer was in front of them in the form of a treeman, they had long known that he was the commander of this expedition, so they were respectful to him.
Since it is an upper world, you can't use flying pigeons to transmit information between the various hanging peaks and pumice, because the speed of the phoenix is very fast, and when you use the flying pigeon to transmit information, the enemy has already ridden the phoenix to hit you. So the exchange of information in the air is a flag language.
The transmission speed of the flag is much faster, as long as there are flag soldiers on each hanging peak and large pumice stone, the information can be transmitted very quickly to a long distance, so in the summer they are far away in the palace, and the information has been quickly transmitted to thousands of kilometers away through the flag soldiers.
