Chapter 22, smart people will make up their own explanations

The battle between the traverser and the Thracian army, there was no third party to visit. But the news can't be hidden, there is strategic magic in this world, although you can't really see the situation on the scene, but at least the movement of the army can be seen.

Under the observation of strategic magic, the Thracian army split into two parts, one slowly entered Tara Khan and dispersed, and the other hurriedly retreated, and after returning to the territory of the Marquis of Drake, it stood still, which looked strange.

Spies from all over the world have sent spies, some infiltrating the Marquis of Drake's territory to inquire about the news, and some coming to this battlefield to check out. But all of these spies returned in vain - the traversers had already cleaned the battlefield clean, not to mention leaving no physical traces, and even magical traces were destroyed by their use of spells. The spies tried to use spells to trace the scene of the battle, but they could only see a chaotic color, and no valuable information could be seen, and on the other hand, the Thracians also did a good job of secrecy, and the defeated cavalry returned to the Marquis of Drake's territory, and they had not gone out in the barracks, which were heavily guarded and no one could get in.

Richard, the king of Thrace, was the first to hear the news of the defeat, probably because he was used to it, he was not shocked, not even a relatively large mood swing, but calmly inquired about the situation of the cavalry troops. When he learned that the cavalry had retreated safely and without damage, he smiled and gave the order to block the news.

The Thracian cavalry, who had suffered a heavy mental blow, needed to recuperate in the barracks of the Marquis of Drake for at least a year or two before they could gradually come out of the shadows and regain their former combat effectiveness. Until then, no outsider should expect to get even the slightest bit of news from them.

Marquis Drake has given a death order, forbidding anyone to talk about this battle, and anyone who violates it will be killed.

Under this strict control, spies from various countries ran into walls one after another, and no one could get specific information. As for those who went through official channels and asked through official channels, the answers they received were uniformly "the Thracian army conducted a rapid march exercise on the border, and that's it."

What a fool are you doing! Is it true that strategic magic does not exist? When you go there there are tens of thousands of troops, when you come back there are only 2,000, and the entire infantry unit is sent outside...... Is there such a drill under the sky?

But the Thracians insisted on it, and the envoys of various countries were helpless.

They had no choice but to track down the situation on the other side.

On the other side, of course, there is Tara Khan.

However, Tara Khan's side was also very slippery, and Anthony said: "Although I have received the news that the Thracians are coming to invade, and I am preparing for battle, in fact, our Tara Khan's army has not yet had time to dispatch." ”

He really didn't lie, the Tara Khan army did not move at all, it was the traversers who were dispatched.

Originally, according to Anthony's plan, the traversers took the lead, and the Tara Khan's army attacked to finish. Who knew that he was still preparing on his side - there were not many troops in Tarahan, and the total was only about two thousand, this battle was difficult to fight, and he didn't plan to let his subordinate lords mobilize the army - the battle was actually over there.

So externally, it's - Count Tara Khan really doesn't know.

Really, more than 24K gold.

The intelligence officers of all sides are not fools, but smart people are easily fooled by themselves. It is well known that Count Tara Khan has reorganized his army and intends to go to war, and it is also a well-known fact that Tara Khan's army has not yet had time to be dispatched.

Combining these two points, it is easy to conclude that "there are other people who are fighting this battle, and it is really not official Tara Khan".

However, in the area of Tara Khan, what other force can fight such a big battle, except for the official?

Coincidentally, there really is such a force.

Barbarians of the North.

The northern barbarians of Tara Khan are not powerful, but in the dense primeval forest, no one knows how many there are. Moreover, the barbarians often migrate inexplicably, and perhaps a large tribe has migrated over......

Although the relationship between the northern barbarians and Tara Khan is not good, there have been more than one war in history, but since the "Northern Demon King" appeared and ruled the northern territory with violence, more than once people have seen the barbarians enter the northern territory to talk about business, they buy metal equipment, wine and various daily necessities from the north, and exchange them for the special products of the forest, the buyer and seller are very fair and reasonable - unreasonable, every time such a trade fair, the demon king will personally watch, who dares to make trouble in front of him?

So many people believe that the Demon King of the North has integrated the barbarians and the northern mob into one army. This army can be described as a soldier of the whole people, and God knows how many people can be pulled!

Since Tara Khan did not officially send it, it could only be this demon king who went out to fight this battle, repelled the Thracian army, and ate at least six or seven thousand Thracian infantry troops whole.

What's more, it was not long before the news was received that about 6,000 Thracian infantry prisoners had been divided in two, half sent to work in the mines and lumberyards of Tara Khan, and half had been taken to the north to settle as farmers.

This news confirmed the speculation of the "Demon King's shot" - besides the big Demon King, who else would bring a large number of people to the north to farm?

And he only took half of the men, and the remaining half must have been sold to Count Tarakhan...... Just look at the treatment of these people.

I have to say that when a person has prejudices, he doesn't even need to fool around, he will try to make up for it, come up with all kinds of reasons and explanations, and explain some things that are originally ridiculous to look like that.

Naturally, the spies of all forces found the captured Thracian infantry, and they came to the same conclusion - unknown masters, terrifying beasts, and most importantly, the handsome demon king with white hair, did appear.

Among the traversers, Locke's appearance can be ranked in the top few. When Wang Tuhao closes the skin of the Sage, he may be the most striking among the men.

So many of the Thracian infantry captives remembered "Ah, there was such a man, very handsome, with white hair, and a few swords floating around him".

Okay, that's right, it's totally right!

For example, this time, the final conclusion of the various forces was that the demon king of the north was invincible, and led a group of barbarians and mobs to defeat the Thracian army of 10,000 people, and captured more than 6,000 of them. He asked Count Tara Khan to sell half of it and bring the remaining half back to the north.

In a few more years, the army he will be able to bring out will increase by at least three thousand people!
