Chapter 061: The Road Encounters the Suspicious Army

There are almost all kinds of scenery in Odo, with large grasslands and slopes, plus mountains in the distance, and in the summer, you may also see herds of horses, cattle and sheep, although Odo does not have many rivers, but the precipitation is quite abundant.

There wasn't much food growing on the land here, which was the emperor's intention and, of course, the result of the deliberations of the majority of the nobles.

First, because this place is close to the demons, the demons have little food, if they are allowed to rob a large amount of grain and grass, it will be harmful to the empire;

"Xilin, look!"

Augustin pointed to the black crowd in front of him and said to Cillin.

The three of them had been tossing on their horses for two days and two nights, and they had very little rest, and even four of the horses they were riding were exhausted.

The two days and two nights of galloping made the three people who had not rested sleepy and tired, but they still endured their spirits, especially Bensen, his riding skills were not good, and his horses had been exhausted to death in the past two days, and only one was left to see it.

When Xilin was feeling tired, he just heard Augustine's voice, so he raised his eyes to look ahead, and then his body was shocked: "It's the general!"

The three of them reined in their horses at the same time, looked intently at the team, and after a while, all three of them felt that something was wrong.

"It's not a general, it's not cavalry at all, and besides, they haven't even maintained a formation, and the twenty-seven cavalry diagram will never become like this, even if there are no war horses!"

It was Benson who spoke, and he had some truth in his analysis, and Sirin and Augustine did not move, but watched intently as the team moved slowly.

"This way. Augustine whispered, and then turned his horse and headed for a high ground.

Although the high ground is not abrupt, it can be used to hide, but the horses are tall and difficult to hide, so the three of them had to walk far away for a while, and then they dismounted and watched, following the original direction, but it was difficult to be discovered.

The three of them looked at each other, then left their horses where they were, and walked to the original slope, slowly crouching on the ground, watching the movement in the distance.

"Whose team will this be, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be a big corps here, could it be the governor's own soldiers?" Augustine muttered quietly, and as soon as he came up with a reason, he immediately denied it, "No, no, it's not a pro-army, most of the provincial troops are near the capital, and besides, the pro-soldiers will not all be dispatched, this team has at least twenty or thirty thousand people." ”

Augustine was there thinking about it, but he couldn't think of which army.

"Could it be which infantry regiment?" said Cillin turning back to Augustine, but as soon as he exited, he felt that something was wrong, the infantry of the empire would not be so bad, and even the marching formation was chaotic.

Xilin looked down again, and at this moment, a word suddenly flashed in his mind, and Xilin suddenly looked up at the team in the distance.

Cillin didn't speak, but Benson next to him said what was in his heart, "It's a demon!" Benson's voice was a little cold.

As soon as Benson spoke, Cillin and Augustine shifted their eyes to him at the same time, seeing that neither of them moved, Benson looked at Cillin, and then looked sideways at Augustine, and saw that both of them were staring at him, Benson spread his hands: "Although I don't want to admit it, maybe that's the case." ”

Ignoring Benson's words, Sirin and Augustine turned their heads again, still looking at the army.

Because the distance was too far, they only saw a black press, and the number that Augustine just said was only an estimate, and there was no basis.

This period of observation is not without gain, at least figuring out the general direction of the other party.

"Damn, they're coming this way!" Augustine said, slamming the ground hard.

"So what, can their army still catch up with us, and we can't ride alone. Cillin turned his head to look at Augustine, "Besides, if the demons don't have to be afraid, if we meet an orc today, it is estimated that we will not be able to run away now, but on the other side is the demons, a group of stupid big guys, who can only scream and rush forward, or a group of brain-dead." ”

"Brain-dead, maybe, the demon commanders are all nimble-brained guys. Benson glanced ahead and spoke, and he moved forward slightly, next to Sirin.

"What are we going to do now, it's not a way to stay like this, these guys won't be going to attack the capital, if that's the case, this little manpower is still a little insufficient. As he spoke, Cillin slowly moved down, then slowly stepped down and stood up.

Seeing that Xilin was like this, Augustin and Benson both got up cautiously and came to Xilin's side, each patting the dirt on their bodies.

I don't know what's going on, although it is snowy in Odo, especially this year, but the snow at the border is much heavier than inside, and it snowed in the place where they stayed a few days ago, but now it has melted away, but the soil is still a little damp.

"Benson, you'd better think of a way, what should we do?" Augustine said, turning his head to look at Benson.

"Yes. Benson didn't delay, "In my opinion, we should move forward." ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense, what I'm asking is what to do, we can't go on the other side with those guys, I don't have the ability to deal with twenty or thirty thousand demons. Augustine heard Benson's words and hurriedly said.

"Don't worry, listen to me slowly. Benson paused slightly, and then looked at Xilin again, "We are here to save the general, and we don't know the general's whereabouts now, since we left the army that day, it has been five days back and forth, and the variables in these five days are still very large." ”

Benson's analysis was true, he took a slight breath, and then said: "If we go blindly to search, it will be tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, I thought ......"

Hearing Benson's thoughts, both Cillin and Augustine had a slight smile on their faces.

In fact, Benson's idea is very simple, whenever you are looking for things and people, you must pay attention to clues, and the more than 10,000 cavalry led by Clarence is a huge clue.

Come to think of it, even if Clarence could clear the traces, it would still be very easy for Cilin, who had always figured out the rules of the cavalry regiment, to find some useful information.

The three of them made up their minds and no longer hesitated, each turned on their horses, and then beat their horses away, as for the direction, they naturally avoided the unknown team.

After about half a day, it was getting dark.

It was a little more difficult for the three of them to find clues at night, but they did not slack off at all, and they still seriously searched for the whereabouts of the 27th Cavalry Regiment.

Until late at night, they still didn't get any useful information, so the three of them began to rest in place, after all, the human spirit is limited, even if the cultivation level is high, and the force is strong, it is also the time to use the light.

The three of them looked for a relatively open place, and then slowly cleaned the ground, and saw that Cillin and Benson had already sat down to rest, and Augustine also sat on the ground, but it didn't take long for Augustine to bend over and jump up like being stung by a bee!
