The headquarters of the Northern Corps, the office of Commander Arthur Snak. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Commander, the order has been passed to the garrison of the Two Realms Pass, and they are not allowed to leave the pass without your order. The subordinate reported back to Arthur.
"Got it, stand down. Arthur buried his head in the official document, and waved his hand to his subordinates to leave without raising his head.
When Arthur was the only one left in the room, Arthur put down the official document and pen in his hand, got up from his seat, walked to the wall behind him, and put his hand on a magic pattern on the wall.
With a creak, the wall parted, revealing a passageway, along which Arthur walked into a secret room with a mirror, and he came to the mirror and placed a magic crystal on a groove in the mirror.
There was a ripple of magic, and after a while, William Snark's figure appeared on the mirror.
"Father, there is news from the Two Realms Pass that the werewolf army has begun to move, and I ordered the two Realms guard Burton not to leave the pass without permission. Arthur told William about the two realms.
"Well, the werewolf invasion is not a trivial matter, your northern legion can't ignore it, and you must also be prepared for war, but you can delay as much time as possible, with the strength of the werewolves, I believe that you will soon be able to destroy Songhai City, and then you will appear again to repel the werewolves." Perhaps because it was too far away, William's voice was choppy.
"Yes!"
The crystal turns into powder, the mirror disappears, and communication magic is interrupted.
Arthur exited the secret room, thinking about the follow-up in his heart, he didn't have to worry about repelling the werewolves, the werewolf invasion was originally induced by them, and when the time came, he would make a scene and fight a few times at will, and he would naturally retreat, and the most important thing was how to delay the reinforcements of the Northern Army without giving people a grip.
When the werewolf vanguard came to the outside of the Two Realms Pass, the White Dragon Legion led by Zhao Yun also came to the second city, Xihe City, and the army was still blocked outside the city by the closed city gate.
"Bastard, I told you that we are from Songhai City, and the werewolves are about to invade in a big way, and we have been ordered to rise up to help defend the city. Zhang Fei's roar sounded over and over again.
"How many times do you want me to tell you, whoever you are, you can't enter the city. "The city lord of Xihe City was bolder than Breel, and he came forward to talk to them, but he was not allowed to enter the city no matter what.
Regarding the werewolf invasion that Zhao Yun said about it, the city lord of Xihe City didn't believe it very much, but felt that letting the armies of other cities enter the city would threaten him.
"Zilong, no one appreciates it, let's go. Zhang Fei wanted to leave angrily.
"No, try to persuade the other party again. Zhao Yun disagreed with Zhang Fei's idea.
"Look at me. Guo Jia burst out a sentence and suddenly disappeared on the horse, and the next moment he appeared next to the city lord of Xihe City, held him in his hand, and threatened: "Don't order to open the city gate yet." ”
"Ah, how I didn't think of that. Zhang Fei shouted, and jumped to the city tower, he didn't regard Xihe City as an enemy, he forgot that this city tower couldn't stop him at all, after going up to the city tower, Zhang Fei rushed to the city lord violently.
"Don't be impulsive. "The life of the city lord of Xihe City was threatened, and he hurriedly begged for mercy, where did he think that the strength of the person who came was so strong that he could ignore the city tower.
"Don't worry, we just have something to discuss with you, so let's open the city gate first. ”
"Yes, yes, someone is here to open the door and welcome a few generals into the city. "The city lord of Xihe City had to order the opening of the city.
After the city gate was opened, Zhao Yun did not bring the army into the city, and still ordered the general to bring people to camp and enter the city with a team of personal guards.
After Zhao Yun led people into the city, Guo Jia also let go of the city lord of Xihe City, afraid of their strength, and the city lord of Xihe City did not act rashly, putting on a kind gesture, as if it was not he who was held hostage just now.
"City Lord, don't get me wrong, we are really the army of Songhai City, we are here to help you defend against the werewolf invasion, or find a place to talk in detail first. Zhao Yun said comfortingly.
"Please. The city lord of Xihe City greeted him with a smile, but a look of resentment flashed in his eyes.
I had just held each other hostage, and Guo Jia and Zhang Fei were not easy to talk to him, everything was decided by Zhao Yun, and Guo Jia kept showing a meaningful smile along the way.
"Fengxiao, what are you thinking?" Zhang Fei panicked when he saw Guo Jia's smile, with his understanding of him, he must have some bad water in his stomach.
"It's nothing" Guo Jiake didn't dare to tell Zhang Fei, he sensed that the city lord of Xihe City had bad intentions, if he let Zhang Fei know, he would stab the other party to death with a spear, which would be detrimental to the reputation of the king.
The city lord of Xihe City is named Chad, and he is more direct and practical than Blel of Donghe City, so he took Zhao Yun and others to the City Lord's Mansion, and then Zhao Yun expressed his intention and asked for assistance.
"Regarding the werewolf invasion, I haven't gotten the information from Xihe City yet, and your city is far away from the werewolf tribe, how can I know it first?" Chad didn't say yes or no, but just grabbed a few doubts to discuss with Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun: "You should have heard about the battle between my Songhai City and the werewolves last year, because we have been attacked by werewolves, we attach more importance to the information of werewolves, and send people into the werewolf tribe to inquire and learn that the werewolves have signs of a large-scale invasion." ”
Of course, Chad knew that Valle's army had passed through Taxihe City safely without encountering any obstacles, and of course he couldn't stop it.
"So, it's just a sign, not that werewolves are going to invade?" Chad was going to bite to the death, and there was no actual evidence to prove that werewolves were invading.
"Yes, but only by taking precautions can we ensure the safety of the people. At this time, Zhao Yun didn't know that the werewolf army had already set out, and the vanguard troops had reached the Two Realms Pass.
"City lord, rest assured, our army is only assisting in the defense and will not interfere in the affairs of your city. Roughly guessing Chad's concerns, Zhao Yun assured him that at least he didn't plan to interfere in defense accidents for the time being.
"This matter is very important, although I am the lord of a city, it is not easy to be arbitrary, and I still need to consult with the officials of Xihe City before I can make the decision. Chad continued to excuse himself, then continued:
"The three generals have come from afar to work hard, I instructed my subordinates to prepare a guest room for you, stay in the City Lord's Mansion tonight, and discuss the follow-up matters together after our city makes a decision tomorrow. ”
Zhao Yun couldn't force Chad to agree immediately, so he had to wait tomorrow to see the situation, as for staying in the City Lord's Mansion, he had no such plan, and was ready to leave the city.
"There is the lord of the city. Guo Jia rushed to agree before Zhao Yun refused, quietly glanced at Zhao Yun, and then proposed to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for the whole team of personal soldiers to stay in the city lord's mansion, so it's better to leave a few people with you and let the rest go out of the city." ”
When Chad heard that Guo Jia was going to send his guards outside the city, he was overjoyed, and secretly thought that the three of them must be too confident in their own strength to dare to do so.
"Strength is great, I've knocked down one of the eighth-level warriors. Chad sneered in his heart.
Zhao Yun didn't know what Guo Jia was doing, but out of trust, he didn't object and let him call the shots.
