"Yay, the king is coming."

At the Xihai outpost, Qingqiu Ziyue was so excited that she cheered like a child when she heard the news that Yang Xu was coming.

With her arms held high, she swung her slender fist that could smash a dinosaur to death with a single punch, bouncing around the spacious living room, the majestic peaks trembling and striking.

Qingluan is still the image of the transformed Qingluan bird.

She squatted gracefully on the back of the chair, calmly looked at Qingqiu Ziyue, who looked like a happy husky, and said thoughtfully: "Although the king said that he wanted to come, he didn't come over in a day or two. ”

The Xihai outpost was more than a hundred miles away from the royal city in a straight line.

More than 100 miles sounds very short, but it only takes half an hour on the highway in a modern society with developed transportation, and it only takes about an hour to take the ordinary national highway.

If you take a plane, take a high-speed train, it will be faster.

But in the Wild World, in this terrible world covered by ancient dense forests, it was too difficult to travel more than a hundred miles in a straight line. It takes five to seven days to walk through dense jungles and dodge countless vicious wild beasts, all kinds of unspeakable monsters, and traps from nature, which can be twice as long or even longer.

It's all going to have to go well.

If it doesn't go well, the long sleep journey is also a very common result.

Even if Xuguo opened two routes to the West Sea, it would still face great difficulties every time he changed the garrison.

Qingqiu Ziyue understood this truth, but she didn't care.

Isn't it just five or six days, a little meaning?

She smirked and said, "It doesn't matter, the king will definitely be fine anyway." ”

"Hmph, when the king comes to the West Sea outpost, I will be able to be alone with the king......"

Qingqiu Ziyue's fox eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and her beautiful face full of heroism was full of joy and joy, and she made no secret of her expectations for the future.

In the past, when she was in Wangcheng, although she was tired of being by Yang Xu's side with various excuses, Yang Xu, as the king of Xuguo and the leader of the tribe, would always be without the opposite sex by her side.

Qingqiu Ziyue and Yang Xu's chance of being alone is infinitely close to zero.

It's different now, it's definitely impossible for Yang Xu to come to the Xihai outpost with a palace maid, and it's impossible for her resourceful sister to come over, and none of the people who can stop her from being alone with Yang Xu at the moment are there.

Thinking of this beautiful future, Qingqiu Ziyue smiled from ear to ear, and Qingluan couldn't help but roll her eyes wildly.

What a fool!

Is now the time to think about that?

Qingluan did not hide his dissatisfaction, and sneered: "You better think about it first, how to give Wang a satisfactory answer." ”

Qingqiu Ziyue was stunned for a moment, the fox blinked and blinked, but she didn't react.

Reply?

She was stunned for a moment before she wondered, "What is the reply, is it those outsiders?" ”

Qingluan rolled his eyes, speechless at Qingqiu Ziyue's hindsight, can we think more about the business and less about the things that we don't have.

Besides, there's a girl here.

You are alone with the king, huh.

╭(╯^╰)╮Hmph, dreaming.

She said angrily: "Do you want to wait until the king comes over before acting?" ”

Qingqiu Ziyue suddenly realized, flattened her mouth indifferently, and said casually: "Isn't it you?" ”

"I've left this matter to you."

"I said it earlier."

"Huh~~ You won't forget, will you?"

Qingqiu Ziyue looked at Qingluan suspiciously, with a questioning expression that you don't want to be lazy and slippery, and saw that Qingluan fell into silence.

Qingqiu Ziyue has explained this.

But........

As a commander, is it reasonable to do nothing at all?

As it turned out, it made sense.

Who can expect a stupid fox to do more.

Qingluan didn't say anything, waved his wings and left Qingqiu Ziyue's room.

-------------------------------------

The most important thing to do before you start your trip is to plan your route.

A safe and feasible route is the most important factor in ensuring a safe journey.

At present, there are two routes to the Xihai outpost in Xuguo, one is to pass through the big river dozens of miles east of Chaoyang Wangcheng, first go north along this big river, then turn to the mouth of the West Sea, and finally detour to the south to the West Sea outpost.

With a total length of four or five hundred miles, this line is the longest route, but it is also the fastest and safest.

If all goes well, it will only take four or five days to reach the West Sea outpost.

Usually, Xuguo changes its defense and takes this route.

The other route is to head west along the Blackstone Mountains, where you reach the West Coast and turn north to the West Sea Outpost.

The road is only a little more than two hundred miles away, but it is even more dangerous. The journey was all on foot, and it would take at least five or six days to reach the outpost when it was necessary to carry large quantities of supplies.

After thinking about it, Yang Xu decided to lead two hundred soldiers to take the route of Black Stone Mountain.

From here, you can pass through the Black Rock Town of the Blue Bird Clan, take a short rest in Black Rock Town, and transfer some soldiers from Black Rock Town to strengthen the strength of the West Sea Outpost and prepare for possible conflicts and wars in the future.

Of course, these are not the most important reasons.

The most important reason is that Yang Xu wants to take the opportunity to clean up the fierce beasts along the road, get more life energy, and open the second-level authority as soon as possible.

As for the royal city, although only three hundred soldiers remained, it was not important.

Although the Asahi Kingdom has only 2,500 soldiers in name, its ordinary subjects are not weak lambs, and they also have extraordinary combat effectiveness. Wangcheng has nearly half of the population of the Asahi Kingdom, and even if there is no army stationed here, it is also the most powerful city in the Asahi Kingdom.

The march of the army is a big deal.

Although Yang Xu was eager to learn about the changes that had happened in the West Sea, he did not rush to lead the army to the West Sea outpost.

When everything was ready, the departments were notified that day, and no action was taken until the next morning.

Most of the two hundred soldiers were fox clans, and the blue bird clan and the merman clan together were only one-third.

In order to ensure a smooth journey, Yang Xu brought Yunxiao, one of the commanders of the Xuguo army.

The army of Asahi is based on a simple and ancient structure.

There is a corps commander for every five people, which is the smallest establishment of the army, and usually the action is mostly in the unit.

For every thirty people, there shall be one chief.

One centurion for every 100 people.

For every 500 people, there is one commander.

The commander is currently the highest position in the army of the Asahi Kingdom.

The sky was slightly bright, and the warm morning sun had not yet passed through the towering cliffs into the royal city, and an army of two hundred men was already waiting outside the city.

They are heavily armed.

Most of the fox tribes wear leather armor, and the color is mainly blue-gray.

Although the alloy armor is good, the production is limited, and most of the fox clan is mainly agile, although the mental power is strong, but the physical strength is not much stronger than that of ordinary humans, and the too heavy metal armor will limit the agility of the fox clan.

The mermaids took on human form and wore white tunic long-sleeved dresses.

They are all born as beautiful as flowers, petite and exquisite, like ladies who go out on an outing.

The Blue Bird clan is armed with bows and arrows, dressed in black tights, outlining a graceful and streamlined figure, with a pair of sharp eyes like falcons, full of oppression.

Around the army, on both sides of the road, the residents of Wangcheng who had received the news woke up early and came to see them off with solemn and respectful expressions.

This is the tradition of Asahi Province.

When the army goes out, the people will come to see them off, express their blessings to their relatives and friends, and hope that they will return safely.

The population of the Asahi Kingdom is close to 10,000, and half of the population lives in the royal city. This includes all the pregnant women and children of the Asahi Nation, which is to facilitate the care of the children and ensure the safety of the next generation.

Thousands of people gathered around the army, talking, mostly worried.

They had heard about the West Sea yesterday, and they had learned that there were other tribes coming from the vast West Sea, and they had even learned that Yang Xu was going to go out in person, so they couldn't help but be worried about it.

Yang Xu is not only the king of Xuguo, but also their faith.

What exactly is the enemy from the Western Sea, they dare not think and cannot figure it out.

But they were worried about Yang Xu's safety from the bottom of their hearts.
