As a commercial transit point in the interior, it may be that for convenience reasons, Sanke was built and managed in the form of a town rather than a city.

However, because of its commercial status and role, it is no less large than a large city-state, and its natural defense force is also very considerable.

But when I entered the town, I saw a scene of panic, many of the buildings showed signs of destruction and burning, and black smoke rose in the sky in the distance.

"Who's who?, get out of the car and get checked, or I'll be rude to you!" the soldiers on guard faced the convoy with almost undisguised hostility, not to mention the fear and hideousness on their faces when they faced the guards' clothing and the obvious Canghai Kingdom logo on their vehicles.

What the hell is going on here!

"In the face of the sign of the royal capital guard, why are you acting so rudely and calling your commander!" Seeing that the convoy was blocked, Rogers took the initiative to intervene.

It was a bit embarrassing to be turned away when he arrived at his own territory, so his tone was naturally not very good, and I don't know if it made the soldiers guarding not buy it.

"No matter who you are, you are not allowed to enter without the documents that are passed! You say that you are the royal capital guard, how can you prove it!"

"How can this be true, I am the deputy commander of the Imperial Guards of the Canghai King, Envy Rogers, the elite alchemists who protect the country have just returned from attending the exchange conference held in the Aishin Empire, and there are also important ministers of the royal palace's cabinet, Lord Kairo, in the car, you actually doubt our identity?

Go and call O'Lane out of here, that's how he manages his men!"

Hearing the name of his immediate boss being called, several soldiers looked at each other and relaxed their nervous posture a little, after all, Rogers' very determined attitude towards losing his temper made his statement somewhat believable.

In addition, Kairo, who was in the car, also came forward in confusion and calmly declared his identity, indicating that he and the others did not know in advance that they needed to pass papers, and asked the soldiers to report to the town's consul, Gomares.

Not long after the soldiers to be reported had left, a small group of men and horses in the town hurried towards this side, one of whom was dressed in a golden striped robe in the style of an archon, and immediately came to Kairo and saluted:

"Xiaguan Brother Marais has seen Lord Kailuo, I don't know if the adult led the team to triumph, and the subordinates are reckless and speechless, and I hope that the lord will forgive the sin!"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that when I left, I hadn't heard about the system of customs clearance paperwork for entry and exit, so how could there be such a change when I came back!

Could it be that something big happened to the king after I left?"

"It's a long story, you have been working for a long time, please follow me into the town to repair, I really want to explain it to the adults in detail!"

Kairo didn't ask any further questions, and after proving his identity, the convoy was escorted by the guards into the town of Sanke, and on the way, he saw that the townspeople looked at him a little evasively, and Kairo couldn't help but frown.

Something big must have happened! As a freight center entering the Canghai country, its prosperity and the frequency of outsiders are no less than ordinary cities, and the folk customs in the town have always been relatively open, and I never thought that such a change would occur in less than a month.

After settling the convoy into his accommodation, Kéroma hurried back to the Consulate with Gomares to hear his report, accompanied by Rogers.

Due to the purpose of Xiao Yi's visit, he and Zode were also invited to attend, which surprised Gomares, who didn't know the inside story, but since it was approved by Kairo, out of politeness, he didn't ask Xiao Yi's identity.

"Since you left, the rebels' activities have become very frequent, at first we thought it was because of the recent seizure of several batches of supplies and equipment to support the rebels, but since half a month ago, we have been frantically harassing and destroying the town......

At this time, Rogers glared in Xiao Yi's direction, but Xiao Yi was still very calm, he was bored.

"Since then, there has been no news of the equipment smuggled by the rebels, so I think that it may be because they have accumulated enough strength that the rebels have moved from covert activities to overt confrontation. ”

After so many years of encirclement and suppression, the rebel forces have been struggling to survive, and they will not be able to achieve a climate at all. ”

"Commander Rogers, I don't want to believe what I'm saying in my heart, but I'm afraid it's true, in fact, the pressure on the royal capital is probably greater than that of me.

Ever since I had this concern, I have warned the royal capital, and from the messages that have been replied to me, it is not only the town that has been attacked frequently, but the major cities of the major territories have been devastated even more violently than before. ”

Gomares' account was silent, and a moment later Rogers slammed his fist into the table next to him:

"Bastard, if you knew that you shouldn't have given these rats a chance today, you shouldn't have given them a chance a long time ago! Your Highness is still too merciful, and is reluctant to kill these rebellious fools, now look at what these despicable people who don't know anything about Entu have done!"

Kane's expression was also very solemn, but his behavior was more calm:

"Gomares, the town should be heavily guarded, if even you find it difficult to deal with, the other party should have mobilized a lot of forces to take this place as a key target, it stands to reason that this is not normal!"

"Lord Kairo, I've noticed this, too, but for some reason it's not just the rebels who are attacking the town, but also many other organizations have joined in, not only Princess Maryonny's 'Far Mountain', but also the 'Monsoon' and 'Sailing' are also helping the rebels, and the first large-scale attack on the town was infiltrated by these cargo guards and resident properties, and I also found members of the 'Gray Shadow Thieves' among them.

I know that the rebel forces have been in contact with other forces, units and regard this as their main target, can it be said that the other side's strength has grown to such an extent that it can launch a full-scale attack with impunity!"

Gomares's anxious tone made the atmosphere very tense, and it was Xiao Yi, who had not been silent, who had been silent, who suddenly spoke:

"I have some ideas about this, I don't know if I'm right!"
