Chapter 26: A Thousand Miles Raid (3)
The sound of killing in front kept coming, and the Chu army was constantly rushing towards the east gate, and Kong Ming also followed behind them, advancing rapidly, his eyes kept looking ahead, and he could reach the City Lord's Mansion in more than ten minutes, where it would be a big battle, and he couldn't help but pay attention to Kong Ming, and at this time, in the middle of the central street, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion was also constantly gathering the City Lord's guards, and there were some stragglers near the City Lord. In the midst of the chaos, the first battalion and the directly subordinate team led by Kong Ming rushed along the main road, and what the Chu army did not expect was that there were no obstacles such as cabinet horses and other cavalry in front of the enemy's formation, which showed how the enemy's chaos had become, or that the Harvey army at this time was an army without any organization. The strikers of the first battalion directly entered the enemy formation, like a sharp knife inserted into a steamed bun. After the collapse of the enemy forces in the first few columns, the enemy troops behind also broke back. The Chu army almost broke up the improvised Havi army without encountering any obstacles. Just after the first battalion rushed over, Kong Ming led a team to the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion is a typical quadrangle, and in the middle is a six-story building, when Kong Ming rushed in, the City Lord's Mansion was already in chaos, and the people in the direct team were constantly killing those who resisted or did not resist. The eighth-level powerhouse that Kong Ming thought did not appear, which made Kong Ming breathe a sigh of relief, and at this moment, several guards from the City Lord's Mansion put a fat man in front of Kong Ming.
"Commander, this is the city lord arranged by Harvey. We caught it in the closet of his room. One of the guards said.
"What's your name, who are you? If your answer satisfies me, I can let you go." Kong Ming promised.
A few guards next to him felt incredulous after hearing Kong Ming's words, you must know that every nobleman is a sum of money in a war, and if he can come here as a city lord, then his family will never be a poor person, you must know that this is a fat gap.
"My name is Barcory Rost, Count Rost of the Harvey Empire. Your Excellency the General, The fat man replied tremblingly.
"What about your saint-level powerhouse, how could he not be in the city?" Kong Ming tried to listen to the other party's tone, you must know that this kind of information is top secret, the scout root body of the Chu army did not get it, and the guards around Kong Ming were also very aware of this, so they were also very surprised when Kong Ming asked like this, and ordinary saint-level powerhouses have their own dignity, and they will not listen to a fat man like the one in front of them.
"He... Heβ" The fat man stumbled.
"You'd better say it, otherwise, once the person dies, no amount of money will be of any use. Kong Ming said lightly, after all, now is a very critical moment, although a saint-level powerhouse cannot affect the outcome of this battle, but he can change the course of a battle, and then can wipe out the team led by Kong Ming.
"A few days ago, five Sword Saints came, and they said to Lean, oh, Lean is that Sword Saint, they are going to Lingying Mountain together to kill a few saint-level demonic beasts, they only left three days ago. β
"Did they say what kind of monster they were going to kill?" Kong Ming still looked flat.
"It seems to be a fire dragon or something, I don't know if it's specific. The fat man said weakly.
After Kong Ming heard this, he was really a little incredible, Chu Jun used this excuse when he passed through the territory of the Demon Beasts, and now it has become intelligence, and I don't know what kind of feeling those Havi Saint-level powerhouses felt when they saw a large number of Demon Beasts huddle together in order to prevent them. And at this time, the Thunder Demon Eagle was quite indirectly indirectly indebted to Kong Ming. I don't know if it will be easier to deal with it in the future, but obviously now is not the time to think about this kind of thing.
"How long have they been there, did they say when they will be back?"
"A day or two! They said it would be about three or four days before they came back. The fat man muttered.
"What is a day or two, three or four days, don't you even know when they leave?" Kong Ming said angrily. You must know that this news is related to the future actions of the whole regiment, and if there is no accurate situation, one bad thing will be the annihilation of the whole army.
"They are all saint-level powerhouses, they just told me, when are we people like us clear?" the fat man said wrongly. When Kong Ming heard this, he had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart, you must know that the most important thing on the battlefield is accidents, and a scholar listed it as one of the factors that soldiers must consider, and only accidents are the most difficult to grasp. After asking some more questions about the Harvey Army, Kong Ming immediately asked people to withdraw from the City Lord's Mansion and follow the headquarters towards the east gate. What reassured Kong Ming was that because the Chu army was fighting very suddenly, after an impact, the entire Harvey army was scattered, and what remained on the ground was a large number of corpses of the Harvey army, and the fire was burning in the east gate city, and the first battalion had completely controlled the east gate, and was on guard there, and after seeing Kong Ming coming, the commander of the first battalion immediately greeted him, and said excitedly: "Commander, this time you can kill Lisuo, if there are a few more times." β
Kong Ming looked at his excited appearance and said funny: "If you are made to be so cool a few more times, then Pang Longye can go home and take the child." β
"Hah!!"
"Hah!!"
"Hah!!"
"Hah!!"
The soldiers next to him laughed when they heard this, and after a period of trembling after the defeat of Nama City, a small victory was a very good opportunity for a defeated army to change the army. This is also the reason why many military strategists put great emphasis on prudence in the first battle, because once the initial battle is lost, it will leave a shadow among the soldiers, and this shadow will only disappear if the battle is constantly victorious, otherwise, it will always accompany an army.
Several people talked and laughed for a while, and Kong Ming said to a signalman beside him: "Send a signal, and after ten minutes, all the troops will gather at the east gate and evacuate." β
The first battalion commander looked at Kong Ming and asked puzzledly, "Regiment commander, aren't we here for a whole day?"
Kong Ming shook his head: "No, we must evacuate here before dawn, and we must move quickly, otherwise our army will be very dangerous." β
After the first battalion commander heard this, his face sank suddenly, "There is a strong enemy?"
"Hmm! a couple of Juggernauts. I know the six Juggernauts, and if I don't know, I don't know how many, which is very tricky. So not only do we have to evacuate quickly, but we also need to evacuate in multiple ways according to the third plan, and then rendezvous at another location. β
"Where do you meet?"
"Talk together when they come. We must evacuate this time, or we may be wiped out. Sora looked at the west side, quietly waiting for the other teams. Soon after, several other battalions returned, and after Kong Ming looked at it, he asked everyone to follow him, while he left from the east gate with his direct team. When the others saw this, they also left in order of the marching procession.
At a fork in the road thirty kilometers east of Lingshui, Kong Ming and several battalion commanders stopped for a while and held a short meeting.
"Now the situation is urgent, we don't have time to explain too much, there are about six enemy Sword Masters near Lingshui City, but they are now in the Lingying Mountain Range, and they don't know when they will come back, so now we must divide our troops and evacuate in battalions, you be careful, our meeting place is in the national capital. I hope everyone can arrive safely, and now arrange the task. The first battalion marched along the main road to the south, and then the commander of the first battalion himself advanced in the direction of the national capital according to the actual situation, the second battalion went back directly to the east, the third battalion went to the northeast, the magic battalion followed the action of the first battalion, and the direct team was led by me. Good luck to everyone!!"
"Good luck!!"
"Good luck!!"
"Good luck!!"
"Good luck!!"
"Action. β
After hearing Kong Ming's order, the battalion commanders immediately followed Kong Ming's order and led the troops to move separately. Watching the last team disappear into the morning light when the sun rose, Kong Ming couldn't help but sigh, a surprise attack had such an end, it was really speechless. After the soldiers eliminated the traces in several other directions, Kong Ming led the team directly to the north, and not only did not eliminate the traces on the road, but let people disguise it as a regiment marching. Then reduce the traces along the way, creating the feeling that the team is constantly fleeing until all traces are gone.
