Chapter 306: The March
The troops of nearly 10,000 people were thinking about starting from the south, Nikos was a native of the imperial capital, and she knew how to go in this area, so she accompanied her to the front to open the way for the team.
The marchers of the military headquarters gave way wherever they went, and the pedestrians and caravans only glanced at each other and did not talk about it.
Such a situation is almost impossible in Hajar City, could it be that the people of the imperial capital are so knowledgeable?
"Nikos, doesn't the Imperial Capital often march. Lias asked curiously, with nearly 10,000 troops along the way, and the pedestrians all bowed to him and greeted him with a smile on his face.
"Yes, General. The military headquarters of the imperial capital is the heart of the entire empire, and troops are often stationed in various cities, so people in the towns around the imperial capital can often see it. Nikos explained.
"I see. ”
Lias nodded, no wonder the people who passed by along the way had very calm expressions.
The rainy season in the imperial capital is about to pass, and I don't know what the situation is in the south, or it's not raining heavily all day.
Wang Chu stood on top of the horse that Lias was riding, stumbling in his sight, it was already good news that it was not raining, because Lias's identity was already a general, and he had to take the lead at any time, even if it was raining, he would continue to move forward, and the army march was not equipped with a carriage except for the carriage that transported materials.
Isn't that the training that is carried out in the sun and rain every day on weekdays just for this kind of time?
Take a look around.
The typical imperial official road is very spacious, even if tens of thousands of soldiers walk on the road, it is still enough for tourists and caravans to walk.
But what made Wang Chu curious was ...... Didn't you say that there were people from the Magician Association and the Cathedral, why didn't you see any of them here, but I met a lot of people from the adventurer team, do you have to travel in batches, I complained in my heart.
Apparently Lucia also noticed the question and was busy asking.
"Why didn't you see anyone from the Wizards' Guild along the way?"
Looking at the imperial capital city behind him, he can no longer be seen, and at most he can see a little bit of the airship floating in the air.
Wang Chu wondered why there was such a high-end means of transportation but not used to transport troops, even if the Asta Empire was large, it would only be a few days' journey at most, and it was rare to see it in the imperial capital for such a long time, most of the time it was docked on the edge of the tower or above the palace, just like a face-saving decoration.
"I don't know, maybe the time is different, many things in the imperial capital are mysterious. Lias grumbled.
It's true that it's been almost two months since I've been here, and Lias, as an imperial general, doesn't know a lot of things, including some military affairs, and Marshal Mansol told a few people about the gathering of the southern demons a long time ago, but the situation hasn't been said since then, as if this matter has been resolved.
The line kept heading south......
The southern part of the Asta Empire is a bit more gentle, with few very high peaks, and most of it is plain, so there are many farms and villages, and you can see small farms in the distance from various gardens on both sides of the road almost a few steps away.
Lias pulled out a folded stack of skins from the wrap around her waist.
"Cam, give me a little bit. "Call to yourself.
Wang Chu climbed along the other party's arm to his shoulder, and saw Lias open the animal skin on the horse's back, and the winding route was a simple map.
Then draw down the place with a group of houses in the middle, which should be the imperial capital.
Bai Jing's slender fingers moved a short distance along the southern route.
Do you know where we are?
Wang Chu looked at this kind of simple map, the mountains were outlined with a few strokes, and the roads and cities were the clearest on the whole map, oh, and there were some pictures that looked like fortresses, and it was estimated that they were some fortress places of the military headquarters.
There are usually not many permanent soldiers in small cities, and most of the branches are located in the various transportation arteries and forts around them, as was the case in Hajar City.
You can't read this kind of map?
Lias rowed from the imperial capital to the next city, a long distance in the middle, looking around, it is not clear where the team has gone, according to the footsteps can only estimate the approximate place at most.
"Where are we going to stay tonight? Lucia on the side also leaned over and asked.
"The situation in this area is very good, supplies can be bought at any time, we go a little longer and look at it in the evening, if only we could get to the next city. Lias looked at the map, there was still a long way to go to the next city, but it was still early.
"I'm in a good place to know, General. Nikos said on the other side.
"Oh? ”
"At the current pace we should be able to arrive in the evening, if only sooner...... It's a farm manor.,It's also a farm under the Erica family.,It's a big place.,Although there is no big enough tavern around, but the surrounding places can be enough for a legion to be stationed.,Many emperors who go south will choose to stop in that place.。 "Nikos is obviously familiar with the terrain over here.
Erica.
Well, Wang Chu remembered the girl with a slightly brownish complexion.
When I was in the slum before, I invited Lias to participate in a meeting between their nobles and wealthy businessmen, but Lias didn't go, because it was the military department and the other party couldn't come in if they wanted to invite them.
I didn't expect to meet her family's industry.
"If there is such a place, it will be good, we will camp in that place tonight, there are still some cooks in the army, if they can't walk, let them get into the carriage and speed up. Lias suddenly remembered her own idea.
"There are about a dozen, I'll arrange it, general, I won't delay the trip." With that, Nikos turned around and ran towards the back of the group.
"I didn't expect you to have a set. Lucia smiled and leaned over her head.
"Alas, you don't even know how difficult it is to manage so many people, that's the only way to do it. ”
Since Nikos was scolded that day, it seems that the actions of the past two days have been much smoother, and the situation of the entire army will be taken into account when doing things.
"And you, you're a troublemaker too!"
Lias reached out her other hand and poked her body.
What's the matter with me......
After determining the route, the team quickened the pace a little, and had to arrive at the designated place before dusk.
