Chapter 579: Reinforcements Leave the City (Part II)
"Compared with the ancient mountains of Connarra, Hailar County is a flat river, which is not only extremely difficult to set up an ambush, but also very conducive to cavalry operations. Don't forget, Higgins is leading a cavalry army!"
"It's just that Higgins must not have imagined that when he arrived there, although Hailar County was still the same on the surface, it was very different inside!"
"Once he enters Hailar County, he will immediately fall into a place of no return, and it will be impossible to leave alive!" Vorster slammed his fist on the position of 'Hailar County', and at the same time, his body burst out with undoubted strong confidence.
Seeing Vorster's expression, Monroe understood that it would be in vain for him to say anything! Monroe, who had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, could only secretly pray for Vorster in his heart at this moment, praying that he could be protected by the gods!
It's just that Monroe neglected one thing, he habitually promised his wish to the God of Light, and he forgot that at this moment, Blanche, the princess of Vorster, was leading a large army to attack the church of the Illuminati! Although God has great love and infinite love, will the gods really give his great love to those who are disrespectful to him?
"It's kind of interesting!" Higgins couldn't help but show a smile on his face as he looked at Hailar County, which was still shrouded in moonlight in the distance.
"If I'm not mistaken, it's almost a full moon today, right?" Higgins asked in a low voice as he looked up at the bright moon in the sky as it was heading westward.
"General Hui, one more day will be the full moon day!"
"How long is dawn now?"
"Less than three hours!"
"Three hours is a bit early!" Higgins seemed to think of something, and couldn't help but nod slightly.
Especially as a resident of Hailar County, it's not too early to wake up. It's even a little late!" The adjutant had been following Higgins for some days, and he had no scruples in denying Higgins's claim that he would wake up sooner or later.
"Oh. Why?"
"This is because Hailar County is located on the main road in and out of the capital, and there are countless traders who pass by and depart from here every day. If you don't get up at this time, prepare. The local traders have no time to set up stalls and do business! And the small traders who want to enter the capital to sell their goods are afraid that they will miss the time to open the city gates!"
"According to you, they're cooking on the fire at the moment, aren't they?"
"Of course!" the adjutant said as he casually turned his gaze to Hailar County, and by the faint moonlight he found that there was not a single wisp of smoke rising in Hailar County, and he couldn't help but be stunned:
"General, what's going on?"
"The residents didn't change their habits, but they didn't light the smoke or go out of their homes as they usually did. Guess why?" Higgins asked intently, looking at his lieutenant intently.
"Could it be?" the adjutant immediately thought of the worst-case scenario, and his face instantly turned pale to the point that there was no trace of blood.
"Don't scare yourself! Listen carefully, the chickens and dogs in the town haven't really stopped in the time we've been here. If they really lost their conscience, the town should have been silent a long time ago! You must remember: our 'enemies' this time are different from the past, strictly speaking, they were and will most likely be our comrades-in-arms. If there is no accident, they will never do such a dehumanizing thing!"
"It's the same thing. We can't swing our butcher's knives at them lightly if we don't have to!"
"So, after a while, we must remember to remind our brothers: as long as the other side lays down their arms, they are still our comrades and brothers. No one is allowed to beat or curse them at will. If you dare to break the precepts, let them watch their heads!" In fact, Higgins's familiarity with Hailar County was no worse than that of his adjutant. The reason why he had been going around for so long was to tell his adjutant and, of course, his subordinates whose relatives lived in the place: their families should be fine at the moment! Do something wrong that they will regret for the rest of their lives!
"General, I wrote it down!" the adjutant also understood Higgins's painstaking efforts at this time. Immediately he solemnly bowed to Higgins.
"Has the person sent to the front to contact him come back?" and Higgins turned back to the point, making sure that the adjutant had listened to him.
"They're all back!" said Clemens and: "They're ready, and if you give the order, they'll immediately drive all the rabbits out there into their cages!"
"Okay! Shoot the arrows, close the net, catch the rabbit!" Higgins gave the order to 'close the net'.
As the three arrows pierced the sky, the north and south ends of Hailar County suddenly burst into flames, and the raging fire spread rapidly.
At first, the two generals who followed Vorster's orders and ambushed here tried to hold on for a little longer, but the merciless flames instantly 'burned' their unrealistic fantasy into ashes!
The growing flames soon ignited their carefully set camouflage, and the earth-destroying heat immediately forced them to jump out of the ground one by one.
"Kill, kill, kill!" Before the group of unlucky people could recover their senses, a uniform shout of killing came from behind them.
At this time, even the most courageous generals did not have the courage to turn back and fight, so they had to lead the remnants of their respective troops back to Hailar County!
"Listen, the townspeople: Lay down your arms and surrender at once!" After completing the siege of Hailar County with Clemens and Trolop, Higgins began to order people to shout to the town.
"The devil is in the details!
"I advise you to feel less like this! At this moment, the situation in Gyeonggi is unclear, and it is our wise move to talk less and do more!" Clemens, who had just finished the arrangement and hurried over, immediately pulled him aside when he heard Trollope's words and whispered to remind him to pay attention to his words and deeds.
"I'm like this, there's nothing to pay attention to! I don't believe it, there can be someone who will punish me for my sin and die for me!" Clemens's dissuasion not only did not calm Trolope, but seemed to touch one of his nerves at once, making him seem more and more agitated and dissatisfied.
"Big brother, uncle, are you an uncle, right? I know you're dissatisfied, but why are you angry that you wait for the matter here to be resolved, okay?" Seeing Trollope's appearance, Clemens was also a little anxious.
"It's a flock of birdmen!"
"Who are you scolding, Trollope?"
"I didn't scold you!"
"Are you coming to me to see General Higgins, let's go!" scolded 'Birdman', and the resentment in Trooppe's heart seemed to fade a lot, and he knocked his horse and ran out first.
Looking at's back, Clemens had the heart to turn around and return to his team, but at the thought of someone still suffering in 'purgatory', he sighed softly and urged his mount to quickly follow.
"'Uncle', don't be angry! You're right, we have to solve this matter as much as possible, and we will have time and opportunity to save our brother!" Trolope saw that Clemens had been ignoring him, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and leaned over to Clemens with a hippie smile.
"Go, go, get away from Uncle! I don't know you, Uncle!" Clemens and Trolope were good friends since childhood, and he naturally wouldn't ignore Trolop just because of this little thing. But if he wants to forgive Trollope immediately, he is a little unwilling, he must take this time to live a 'uncle' addiction here in Trollope!
"Gee, that's a bit of a rush, isn't it?"
"You wait, wait for me to tell you all the dirty things you did at Wimbledon," Trolope could finish his sentence when Clemens was already gagged in his mouth.
"Uncle, you're the head of the uncle, right?!"
"So it's true that they say you're 'afraid of your wife'!" Trolope was stunned for a moment, then leaned back and laughed.
"You bachelor, you know a fart?!"
"I don't understand, but I can see! If the face is pale and the fingers are trembling, if it is not sick, then it must be a sign of fear. Looking at you like this, there shouldn't be any hidden diseases. That is to say" At this point, Trollope watched as Clemens deliberately lengthened his voice, and he enjoyed the complicated expression on Clemens' face.
"Do you want to see General Higgins, if you don't want to, then I'll go alone?" At this moment, although Clemens had the heart to refute Trollope, but Trollope just poked him in the sore spot this time, so that he couldn't find a reason to refute at all. In desperation, Clemens could only divert his gaze in this way to hide his embarrassment!
Trollope, who knew Clemens very well, immediately saw through his thoughts, and if this was normal, Trollope would definitely 'chase and beat' Clemens. But now that time was pressing, Trolope just nodded Clemens with a wicked smile and gave up teasing him for the time being.
The distance between them and Higgins was not too far, and after a while, they came to Higgins together.
"The general please, I'll give you a salute!" Trolop and Clemens reined in their horses and gave Higgins a standard knightly salute on their horses. (To be continued......)
