Chapter 951: Bad News (I)
The city of Sita had been taken over by a powerful rebel army, led by a man who called himself Osato.
This Osato, his strength is also strong, but he has not reached the full beast Cheng dΓΉ, at best he is the peak of the fourth form, and his bloodline is the middle-level giant beast Golden Python, among the middle-level giant beasts, it is also very powerful, not inferior to the dinosaur bloodline of Count Stanwin, and even more powerful.
Osato, who also took advantage of the chaos of the Holy Dragon Empire, quickly gathered a group of people, captured several cities, and expanded his strength rapidly, but became a fairly powerful rebel army.
At this time, in the city of Hita, Osato, standing on the city wall, in the sky, there are scouts who specialize in scouting the surroundings, which are composed of some soldiers with the blood of giant beasts that can fly, such scouts, in the entire giant python army, have a relatively high status.
"Whoosh".
A reconnaissance soldier in the sky flew down to the city wall and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, General, we have found a caravan ahead. β
"Caravans?"
Osato's eyes lit up, his army was very expensive, and he had captured several cities, but in fact, he had not replenished much, and many supplies were almost exhausted.
And the caravan happens to be very rich, and these rebels, occasionally making cameos as bandits, are nothing new.
"Do you see how many people there are in that caravan?"
"There were about five hundred men, three hundred of whom were dressed in armor and rode horses, heavy cavalry, mercenaries of the caravan. β
These scouts were still scouting very carefully. Osato pondered for a while and asked, "Do you see the banner of the mercenaries?" There will be flags. The more powerful the mercenary, the more so. β
Osato still seemed very cautious, the mercenaries invited by these large chambers of commerce were not ordinary people, they were often regular troops, and they were not even the opponents of these mercenaries, not to mention, the Python Army was only a slightly stronger rebel army. Osato's own failure to reach the point of being a complete beast, and he was far from being able to compare with the most powerful rebel forces, so he naturally had to be more cautious.
"Your Excellency, what we saw was a huge blood-colored crocodile. β
"A blood-colored crocodile? Is it a dire crocodile?"
Many thoughts flashed through Osato's mind, the Dire Crocodile bloodline, which he had heard of, was also a mid-level giant beast bloodline, which was similar to his Golden Python bloodline.
Moreover, the dire crocodile bloodline is very rarely distributed on the continent, in the Holy Dragon Empire. Slightly more powerful are the Emblem Eman family in Boulder City.
In particular, Count Steinwin of the House of Edriemman. The fourth form of beast transformation is not inferior to Osato, if it weren't for the fact that Boulder City colluded with the barbarian tribe, I'm afraid that in Boulder City, it would have encountered difficulties.
"It should be Count Stanwin, hehe, the legendary Count Stanwin's dire crocodile bloodline is very powerful, this time I have to have a good experience. He came to escort a caravan, so he should not know about our situation, and he thought that the city of Sita had not fallen. Okay, we'll let them in, and we'll wipe out this caravan!"
Osato finally made a decision, he had a full 20,000 Monty Python soldiers, although they were not strictly trained, but they had experienced the war, and now all of them were elite.
Of course, Stanwin's cavalry wanted to have some advantage, but if they entered the city, they would have laid an ambush in advance, and even the most elite cavalry would not be effective.
"Order, all the people of the Giant Python Army, hide it for me, let this caravan enter the city, and let the people of the original Xita City cooperate, otherwise, slaughter the city!"
Osato had a cruel smile on his face.
On the wide road, a caravan was slowly moving along the mainland. The caravan seemed to have a lot of caravan, so it was protected by heavily armed knights.
"Count Stanwin, there is Hita City in front, and Hita City is still in the hands of the Empire, we can enter Hita City to rest and recuperate, after all, we have been on the road for half a month. β
It was the head of the caravan who had paid a lot of money to hire Count Stamwin's mercenary army, which seemed to be very powerful.
At the beginning, some people doubted, after all, Count Steinwin's mercenaries looked good, but who knows what the actual combat would be? You know, the current Holy Dragon Empire is not peaceful, and there are bandits, homeless, and even some rebels along the way, and the weaker mercenaries can't protect the caravan at all, and Count Stamwin's mercenaries have been established for too short a time.
After the final discussion, it was finally agreed to hire Count Stamwin, and along the way, Count Stamwin and his three hundred heavy guard knights, I don't know how many bandits had been driven away, safely escorted the caravan to its destination, and now it was fully loaded with goods, ready to return to the Holy Dragon City.
As for Count Stanwin's mercenaries, the whole caravan is now very satisfied.
Count Stan Wen did not listen to the head of the caravan, but sent several heavy guards to investigate the reality of the city of Hita, and they had to be cautious.
"Mr. Geer, let's stop and rest for a while, and when the reconnaissance comes back and make sure that something has happened to Hita, we will enter Hita City. β
Count Stanwin was still very cautious, preferring to arrive in Hita City later than risk entering.
The head of the caravan, Mr. Geer, although he felt that Count Stanwin was too cautious, but this was not harmful to the caravan, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's go and have a look first." β
After a long time, the reconnoitring cavalry returned, and they reported to Count Stanwin: "The city of Sita looks nothing unusual, the banner of the Empire is still flying on the towers, and there are many people passing by, and there is no sign of being occupied by the rebels. β
"Haha, Count Stanwin, are you too worried? there is no problem with this Hita City, let's go, let's hurry up, and strive to get to Hita City as soon as possible, and we can rest early. β
Mr. Gehr glanced behind him, many people were tired, not everyone could be like Count Stanwin, who had been on the road for half a month in a row, and still be so energetic.
Count Stampyn also believed in his heavy guard knight, and since there was no problem with the reconnaissance, he also nodded and said: "It's okay, everyone has worked hard, let's go to Hita City to rest first, and in about half a month, we will be able to reach the Holy Dragon City." β
With that, under the escort of Count Stanwin's three hundred heavy guards, the entire convoy hurried towards the city of Hita, which was not far away. (To be continued......)
