Early in the morning, the snow wolf mercenaries had already appeared two hundred kilometers away from the northwest side of Fangneng City after a night's march, and all the mercenaries were resting in a valley at this time. Kong Ming leaned against a big tree, sitting cross-legged, meditating in it, for cultivation, Kong Ming had to take some time out of the battle to carry out, this is also a commander's sorrow, too much military affairs to deal with, there is time to cultivate, but cultivation as a person based on the foundation of the Huatian Continent, is an inevitable subject for all those who yearn for a longer life and higher strength, without a certain amount of cultivation, it is really difficult to move an inch in this world, just like Kong Ming, if Kong Ming is a powerless person, then don't say that he is leading thousands of troops, even let him lead a team, and no one will listen to his ordersThis is a reality, of course, those who have been proven to be wise are not among them, because people know that although they have no cultivation, they can also step into the ranks of the saints, and they practice in a different way. In this world, it is not said that there are only a few fixed cultivation modes, but as long as he reaches a certain condition recognized by heaven and earth in a certain aspect, then he will definitely be able to become a sage, so the ability of a sage is terrifying, but this is not necessarily above the battle, this is the law of development of the world. When Kong Ming finished meditating, he opened his eyes, and saw that the whole world was different, Kong Ming could observe all kinds of things more carefully, and his understanding of memory, the understanding of things he had learned before was more profound. "This is probably what people call a demi-saint. Kong Ming muttered to himself.

"Don't dream, the Half-Saint is not so easy to achieve, it's just that you feel different after each practice, and now it seems that this short period of cultivation has given you some benefits. Yi Yiyi said on the side.

"Huh. Kong Ming didn't pay attention to her words, knowing that it was because of yesterday's incident. All the upper echelons have some complaints about Kong Ming, although Kong Ming's explanation of Yi Yiyi has also fallen into the ears of the various division commanders in a certain way, but Kong Ming risked their lives, after all, they were very dissatisfied. This makes those people also lean towards Yiyi in this aspect from a certain situation. But what made them happy was that because of Kong Ming's magic stroke last night, the mercenaries' confidence in Kong Ming had increased a lot, and those division commanders also leaned towards Kong Ming all of a sudden. This in itself is the human heart, and it has nothing to do with anything else, no matter how much you care about a person, sometimes he feels that it is a necessity or necessity. But once you offend him a little, then he will feel that you are his mortal enemy, which is the root of human inferiority. Of course, these are some problems within the mercenaries now, as long as they are dealt with, nothing will happen, and because Kong Ming has led them to win several battles. It also made Kong Ming's prestige among mercenaries reach an unprecedented height, and this prestige was from a certain situation. These mercenaries can be allowed to die without regrets.

"You can sue me. How did you do that last night?" Yiyi became a good student again in the blink of an eye after satirizing Kong Ming.

"For the generals, I don't know where to go? It's autumn and winter, and it's foggy. And at this time, we let the magician cast some water magic, artificially caused the effect of fog, which no one will doubt, you know. People can doubt each other, but no one will doubt God, and besides, Harvey's magicians are in great damage, and no one will use a whole lot of magicians to do reconnaissance. And the enemy arrived yesterday at noon with no more than their advance troops. Do you really think that a team of 300,000 people is the same as our team of 50,000 people, and that is a big project, and if I am not mistaken, they have not been able to come together until today. So, I'm not wrong with the 50,000 people I'm talking to you, you know, because we were dealing with 50,000 people yesterday. Kong Ming said. Although I knew that Kong Ming's words were a bit far-fetched, the several division commanders who came around also had to obey Kong Ming's statement, because they were facing not many people yesterday, so what Kong Ming said was not wrong in this regard.

"Actually, when I told you about the calculation of troops, I made it clear that we are in a battle, we only count the armies that can participate in the battle on both sides, and we must not count those troops that cannot participate in the battle, otherwise when we hear about the tens of millions of troops in the entire Harvey Empire, what kind of fighting do we have? It is better to go home and hug the wife and children. ”

Hearing Kong Ming's words, everyone nearby laughed, but Yi Yiyi spat out, "It's not serious." ”

"As for last night, in fact, to put it bluntly, there is not much to show off, it is nothing more than that the enemy's forces have not yet arrived, and they dare not go around the city at once, for fear of being broken by us, so they focused on the defense of the east and west gates, and the north and south only sent a few scouts there to watch. When the fog was full, the special division sent all the senior assassins and above to secretly clean up the enemy outside the entire north gate, and in order not to let the enemy find out, the time could not be early, only at that time, the goal could be achieved, otherwise, if we act too early, the enemy will have time to react, and if we act too late, it will also hinder the movement of our army, so only start cleaning up in the first ten minutes of the fog, and when they finish clearing, it is the time when our mercenary army goes down the city wall, at this time, the enemy can't react even if he knows, not to mention, in order to confuse the enemyNot only did we place a lot of magical creatures and dummies on the city walls, but we also used a lot of illusion magic throughout the city, so that from the outside, it looked like some action was going on in the city, and at the same time, the entire city outside the city used some water magic to speed up the formation of fog. In this way, we can quietly turn away from the north gate, otherwise, do you think I really dare to put 50,000 troops in the mouth of other people's 300,000 troops. ”

"What the commander said is not bad at all. I can attest to that. Che Yu said.

"I can prove that too. He was not wrong at all. Wen Yue also said with a smile.

"You people, these things are hidden from me, why am I so terrible? Yi Yiyi said angrily.

"You're not scary. Kongming's answer made Yiyiyi somewhat angry. "It's your mouth that's scary, if we told you before this work, why your ones are overwhelming for all of us, and how to arrange them when the time comes. After the explanation is given to you, the army's action time will be disturbed, so that the fighter plane will always be missed, you know, the fighter plane is the life of the mercenary. Kong Ming explained slowly, but Kong Ming didn't know how much impact this sentence had in Yi Yiyi's mind, because Kong Ming was not a roundworm in Yi Yiyi's stomach after all, and in a way, the current mercenary, Yi Yiyi was the owner. He just needs to give her some explanations and get by, and he doesn't need much.

"Well, I won't ask so much about why after that, but I have to be present for every action you take, knowing that I am your greatest friend. Besides, I'm still the deputy commander. Yi Yiyi said angrily, but no matter how it looks. She wasn't really angry. Seeing her like this, Kong Ming had no choice but to give up. What makes Kong Ming a little unclear is that Yi Yiyi should know a lot of military knowledge in some aspects or from the exposure of some words, but from the usual point of view, she doesn't understand at all, this contradictory state makes Kong Ming really don't know how to explain. In fact, Yi Yiyi is more like a commander who came to intern in the mercenary army, and Kong Ming's side may be a special arrangement for some people, Kong Ming has no doubt about this, in fact, it is true.

"Commander. What are we going to do next?" asked Li Yao from the side, a question that everyone was concerned about.

"Next, our troops are divided into two routes, the third division sends a thousand cavalry to escort the wounded back to Hairong City, and then return, and the rest of us, we will have a good game of hide and seek with the three devils. ”

"How do you play it?" said the game, and Dunce immediately became interested, this kind of thing is like a drunkard with wine to him. Kong Ming looked at him, and he didn't know if this product was missing from his childhood, and he was so excited when he heard that there was a game. Everyone also looked at him, which made Duns very embarrassed, so he could only ask in wonder: "What are you looking at me for, haven't you seen a macho man?"

The crowd was overwhelmed. Kong Ming turned around, didn't say too much, from the space ring, took out a map of one hundred thousandths, this was bought by Kong Ming from the black market of the Harvey Empire early on, Kong Ming compared it with the captured, and found that although the money spent on the black market was a little more, it was indeed genuine, and it was more accurate than those years in the Harvey army. You must know that on a magical continent, the duel between the strong can change the terrain of a region at any time, and the new map has a detailed record of this, if you use the old map, many things are not so easy to say, if this leads to the consequences of defeat, it will be even more strict. Kong Ming pointed to the map and said: "You see, we are here now, within the canyon of Yizheng, the closest place to us is Micheng, and the ten cities that pass by the border of Micheng along the border of the chaotic land are Kaicheng, Caicheng, Shancheng, Lincheng, Fencheng, Diancheng, Ningcheng, Yecheng, Liancheng and Liucheng. ”

"Commander, you're not asking us to take down these eleven cities, are you?" asked Che Yu tremblingly.

"How is it possible? Each of the Harvey troops in these eleven cities has more than 30,000 people, plus the 270,000 troops of the three princes, to form the entire defense line against the chaotic lands, and now what we have to do is not to take these eleven cities, but to take three or four of these eleven cities as quickly as possible. ”

Everyone gasped, they all knew what it meant, if it was only a city, then it would tear a hole in the border of the Harvey Empire, at that time, the mercenary army that wanted to attack Harvey's chaotic land every year was a great opportunity, a chance to make the entire northeast of the Harvey Empire chaotic. What's more, Kong Ming has to fight three or four, and if this is the case, then there will be a large number of mercenaries of all kinds flocked into Harvey. You must know that these eleven cities are Harvey's defense line, and once the defense line is breached, needless to say, Harvey's northeast will inevitably be in chaos, and I am afraid that 80% of Harvey's troops will be attracted to this side.

"Are you sure?" asked Li Yao. This is a concern for everyone.

"Who can say this clearly, and the information I have at hand shows that there may be less than 30,000 troops in the secret city, that is, now they only have the city defense army left, and in this case, they can fight. Kong Ming said.

"When did you have the intelligence there again, I don't know. Che muttered as he spoke.

"I sued him. Yi Yiyi said angrily on the side. She had also just obtained this information from the Huayuan Empire's intelligence agency in Harvey. See her like this. The others had no opinion, knowing that in most cases, most of the information was provided by her, and the pre-war information was obtained by the front reconnaissance of the chariot.

"Rest for two hours and then we set off. Target Secret City. ”

Four hours later, outside the Secret City, Kong Ming appeared here with the Snow Wolf Mercenary. Above the city, due to the very sudden appearance of Kong Ming and others, it became a chaos, and the alarms in the city came and went. It made the entire city panic, except for a few people, the rest of the people did not know what was going on. I just looked nervously at the place where the alarm sounded. The city lord of the secret city stood on top of the city, looking at the snow wolf mercenaries who were slowly walking in the distance, and his heart couldn't help but tighten. shouted to the soldiers next to him, "Have you notified His Royal Highness the Third Prince?"

"Informed. ”

"When can they come?"

"They said, let the city lord hold on for a day. Stick to it for at least one day. And they asked about the characteristics of this mercenary. They said that it was the Snow Wolf Mercenary Army, and they had fled here after they had been severely injured yesterday, and the number was not very large, no more than 50,000. ”

"What? They are only 50,000 people? God help me, this is my chance to make meritorious contributions," the city lord shouted excitedly. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for, if it hadn't been for a small mistake he had made. Why let him stay in this place where birds don't for more than ten years, and worry about it every day, if he makes a great contribution this time, maybe he can atone for his sins. You can even return to the prosperous world of the imperial capital, why not blow the northwest wind here.

"Send a decree that all the nobles should send a hundred men, not a thousand, to the head of the city, to guard the head of the city for us, and those who do not come will be punished as collaborators. The city lord shouted, at this time, he didn't have the same molestation as when he saw the snow wolf mercenary just now, but as if in an instant, the god of the Harvey Empire possessed him, and his whole body was full of strength and fighting wit. Under the orders of the lord of the city, all the nobles in the city sent their private army. The private army is the number of personal troops that a nobleman can have according to the laws of the empire according to the level of his title, under normal circumstances, it cannot exceed five hundred, which is the largest number that the earl can have, but in some borders, those nobles always think of ways to increase the number of their own private army, so as to survive the war, and the empire can only acquiesce to this, because every time there is a war, the private army will be used, and some nobles once they become a general will use some methods to convert part of their private army into a regular army, because only in this way can they gain a firm foothold in the army in the first time。 So what the city lord said was not wrong at all, although this number far exceeded the standard of the empire. As an important town of the Harvey Empire, the walls of the city were built beyond the standard, the walls were fifty meters high, and the thickness reached thirty meters, and thirty horses could run side by side on it. And the magic array is also built beyond the standard. Therefore, if there are really only 30,000 troops in the secret city, even if Kong Ming captures it, it will cause great losses to the mercenary army.

Kong Ming looked at the city, the crowded crowd, the noise was constantly passing around, full, but the clothes were not uniform, it didn't seem to be a system, or it was simply to make up the numbers.

"Can anyone explain to me what this is all about?" said Kong Ming, staring at the Harvey Army on the city wall.

"Those who wear Harvey's uniforms are the regular Harvey city guards, and those who wear all kinds of clothes are the noble private army of the secret city. Lu Hai replied on the side, as a mercenary, he knew all this very well, because they often dealt with these people, and he could even call some of them by name.

"So, there are far more than 30,000 people in the secret city now, so few?" Kong Ming frowned. This lack of information made him lose the idea of taking action against the secret city, and it was very unwise to capture the secret city under such unknown circumstances. Perhaps seeing Kong Ming's hesitation, Yi Yiyi said on the side: "Don't you want to fight this battle? This doesn't look like your character!"

"My character?hehe, although we have been together for nearly three months, how much do you know about this person of mine is still a question, you actually know my character?" Kong Ming smiled.

"You don't know this, but I do. I'm sure you'll get something you can't imagine if you attack the city. Yi Yiyi said mysteriously.

"The problem is not that I imagined it or couldn't imagine it, the problem is that I don't know if this gain is whether I won this battle at a big cost or at a small cost. Kong Ming said lightly.

"I think it's a small price to get the biggest win. Yi Yiyi said affirmatively.

"Oh, so you've already arranged the internal response?" said Kong Ming in surprise.

"Of course, the fortress is easiest to attack from within. Yi Yiyi said proudly.

"How sure are you?"

"Ninth floor, that person is my father's old subordinate. Yi Yiyi said deliberately. It's like emphasizing, and it's like showing off.

"You mean there's only one nobleman there?"

"Well, isn't that enough?"

"No, I can't gamble the lives of the soldiers on an ethereal thing, and the most important thing is that all their noble armies have come out, you can see the mixed clothes on the city, even if we attack now, we can't please it, not to mention that they have more than us in total, and it is their home field, plus they are fighting in the city, we have no chance of winning, and we don't have a good chance of fighting. ”

Yi Yiyi still wanted to explain something, but let Kong Ming interrupt Kong Ming and waved his hand, and said, "Summon, change direction, go around the city, and move towards the west." ”

"But ......" Yiyi still wanted to explain, and when she saw Kong Ming's appearance, she didn't say anything anymore. As Kong Ming's order continued, the entire mercenary army turned to the other side of the secret city. The Harvey army at the head of the city watched the mercenary army turn to the other side, and shouted and scolded happily, nothing is to say that the mercenary army is incompetent and the like, the snow wolf mercenaries have a lot of discomfort in their hearts when they see this scene, but because of the military discipline that the mercenary army has been emphasizing, they didn't pay attention to the man's shouting, just like such a saying circulated among the mercenaries, if you are bitten by a dog, do you still want to bite the dog.

"What did you just want to say?" Riding on the snow wolf, Kong Ming asked Yiyi, who was riding a unicorn next to him.

"Don't you want to hear it?"

"I'm interested again now, can't I?"

"A great nobleman in the city is our inner line in the city, and today he promised to open the gates for us to attack. Yi Yiyi replied unwillingly.

"Do you know how many of them there are?"

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be much. Yi Yiyi thought for a moment and replied.

"Hehe, forget it. Kong Ming smiled mysteriously.

As the mercenaries left, the shouting on the city gradually stopped, and no one had the strength to shout so loudly. At this time, the city lord's eyes seemed to see the hope of defeating the mercenary army, because he saw that many mercenaries were bandaged with gauze, and from the magic mirror, he could see that many gauze had blood stains on them. Look at the momentum of this mercenary is very weak, even if the words of the city are so remorseful, I didn't see them answer, although these people seem to be very energetic, but no one knows their specific situation, but at this time, he suddenly saw a strange phenomenon, that is, there are many people riding a snow wolf together, if it is not a special situation, no knight is willing to share their mounts with others, that is, they are now in a hurry to transfer. If you attack, you should be able to gain a little bigger, but if you don't attack, then you won't have any success. This is really a difficult choice for the city lord of the secret city. (To be continued......)
