Chapter 469: Mistakes
"Ed, I'm sorry, I've bothered you this time!" Marcus came to Li Zijun's side after he gave him the order to leave, and apologized to him in a low voice.
As Li Zijun expected, Marcas really said the remedial plan in front of everyone. Not only that, but he also took the initiative to ask Conrad and Simpson to take full responsibility for this rescue operation!
This plan does not require the use of too many troops, and even if the operation fails, it will not have too bad an impact on the overall situation. In addition, this matter also involves the safety of Prince Maher, and although Conrad and Simpson are full of reluctance, they do not dare to refuse lightly.
After weighing the pros and cons, Conrad and Simpson endorsed Marcas' plan and agreed that he would be the team's interim commander-in-chief.
Marcas knew his pound and two pounds very well, and after the team was assembled, he immediately handed over the command to Li Zijun.
And this qiē, he did not ask Li Zijun's consent in advance, and his apology was precisely for this.
"I hope I won't be hurt too badly by you!, otherwise I'll really lose a lot this time!" Li Zijun turned his head to look at Marcas who was full of guilt, sighed deeply, shook his head, and said.
"Ed, I beg you, no matter what, help me this time! Otherwise, Maher and those brothers in the cavalry battalion may never come back!" said Marcus in a pleading tone, pulling Li Zijun's sleeve.
"Okay! For the sake of you treating us ordinary soldiers as 'brothers', I'll help you this time. But let me state in advance: I can't guarantee that I will be able to save them!" Seeing Marcas's pitiful appearance, Li Zijun couldn't bear to say anything more, and nodded very reluctantly.
"Thank you, thank you!"
"Let's go! I really can't catch up!"
Hearing Li Zijun say this, Marcus immediately jumped on the war horse. put on an obedient expression to Li Zijun.
Seeing this scene, Li Zijun couldn't cry or laugh. He was completely speechless!
"Munir, this is the road you are talking about?!Are you sure that war horses can also pass through Guò?" Li Zijun asked with a puzzled face, pointing to the fast-flowing waterfall in front of him.
Three of the five ethnic groups of the Seventh Reserve live nearby, and they are very familiar with the terrain here, which is actually one of the main reasons for recruiting them to join the army!
Li Zijun was also due to this relationship, and of course, because time did not allow, he made a plan without conducting a field trip, simply relying on Munir's introduction.
He had also expected that this road would not be easy. But he really didn't expect that there would be a waterfall in front of him blocking the way!
"General, that's right, this is it! That passage is at the bottom of the waterfall, and we only need to walk this section to make the road easier!"
"As long as we are careful, it should be no problem for the war horse to walk over!"
"Should it?" Li Zijun looked at Munir so angry that he almost burst his eyes.
"Forget it, it's been so far, it's useless to say anything more! Guide the army to pass guò! Remind them: Be sure to ensure safety!" Li Zijun knew that it would not help to get angry at this time, so he forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart and admonished Munir.
"Yes. General!" Munir also felt that his original description was a bit exaggerated at this moment, and he showed an embarrassed expression, and did not leave immediately.
"Alright. It's not your fault alone, and I'm also responsible for oversight! There won't be any more problems on the way forward, right?"
"No problem, no problem! The rest of the road is basically the same as I reported to you, with a simple trim. To be able to pass two knights side by side!"
"That's good! As long as we can get to the designated place on time, you're the first to go!" Li Zijun smiled and patted Munir on the shoulder, dispelled his concerns, and waved him away.
Although Li Zijun repeatedly reminded everyone to be careful, in the end, more than a dozen knights were led into the abyss under the waterfall by their mounts, and their lives and deaths were unknown.
"Bridget, write down their names, if they don't have news when we go back, we will kill them in battle!"
Hearing Li Zijun's words, Bridget was slightly stunned, and then his eyes were full of gratitude.
In the Aojin Empire, there is a big gap between the accidental death on the march and the death on the battlefield, and there is a big gap in the evaluation and pension after death.
And Li Zijun's words just eliminated such a gap, so that the soldiers who fell into the waterfall could also get a fair treatment!
"I thank the general for them!" Bridget fell to one knee in front of Li Zijun.
"Don't say anything, keep going!" This is the case for this action!" Li Zijun reached out and picked Bridget up, nodded to him, and strode forward.
Bridget looked at Li Zijun's back, the little mustard left in his heart was finally completely gone, and he felt extremely happy to be able to follow such a general, he quickened his pace and quickly followed.
This time, Munir finally didn't 'brag' anymore, and the road ahead was indeed much easier, and there were no more serious casualties in the army.
"We've been walking for so many days, how long will we have to walk to get out of this mountain?" Marcas grew impatient as time went on, and he sent for Munir to be summoned to him and asked him personally.
"Back to Your Highness, we only need to bypass the three mountain beams in front of us, and walk for one more day at most, and we can get out of here. ”
"One more day away, so will we have time to catch up with Lei Bin and Maher?" Hearing Munir's answer, Marcas became more and more anxious, and his tone became cold.
"We are doing our best now and obeying the destiny of heaven, can we catch up, how can Munir say clearly!" Li Zijun patted Munir with an embarrassed face, and smiled and motioned for him to return to his previous post.
"Can you not be so anxious! Didn't I tell you, although the road on our side is not easy to walk, but Lei Bin's side needs to hide their whereabouts, their speed is not much faster, and there should be time for it!"
"But will Fengqi attack them in advance, or set up an ambush for them somewhere, and if so, then we will rush over?" Marcas's face once again showed a worried expression.
"I don't have time to take care of you anymore!" Li Zijun glanced at Marcus impatiently, turned around and left.
"One last time, one last time! You tell me one last time, and I promise not to trouble you again!" Marcus hurriedly grabbed Li Zijun and pleaded with him.
"The last time?"
"One last time!
"Feng Qi created such a huge illusion, of course the purpose is not just for an ordinary victory, they are going to annihilate Lei Bin's team!"
"Lei Bin is a bit ambitious and talented, and the sneak attack team should be 'short and concise', which is conducive to quick action and not easy to be discovered!"
"But who would have thought that he had almost secretly mobilized seventy or eighty thousand elites, although this is not good for hiding his whereabouts, it is really difficult for the other party to eat him in one bite!"
"Tie the infantry to the horse, and he is the only one who has come up with such a solution!" Marcus grumbled when he heard this.
"Only one person and two horsemen can ensure the movement speed of the cavalry to the greatest extent, Lei Bin just came to 'do the opposite', I really don't know how he became a general?!" Hearing Marcas's complaints, Li Zijun couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head.
"But in doing so, he also gave Coach Feng Qi a problem! At present, Feng Qi really has less than 400,000 people in Boladin, and their other army should be near the 'granary'. That is to say, unless it is an ambush, they want to quickly eat Lei Bin while holding the defensive line, which is an almost impossible task!"
"Lei Bin is not stupid, he obviously also took this issue into account, judging from the return of the fourth prince's subordinates, he chose a relatively safe route this time, as long as he is not dizzy, Feng Qi is afraid it will be difficult to ambush him!"
"Besides," Li Zijun paused slightly when he said this, and he suddenly frowned.
"What's more?" Marcas heard Li Zijun mention 'besides' for the first time, and he couldn't help but get nervous again.
"Besides, the other party has already made a very obvious mistake, Lei Bin shouldn't be alert to this!"
"What's wrong?"
"If I were the commander of Feng Qi's side, I wouldn't stop the fourth prince from chasing Lei Bin!"
"Why?" Marcus looked at Li Zijun in confusion.
"This seems to have cut off Lei Bin's contact with the rear, but in fact, this kind of practice is bound to arouse Lei Bin's suspicion! No one has caught up with them for such a long time, which in itself is a very abnormal thing!"
"With my understanding of Lei Bin, he should be ready to deal with people from the rear, and it is impossible for him to change his decision because of people from the rear. Even if that person is Conrad or Simpson!"
"And no one, absolutely beyond Lei Bin's expectations! He will definitely make changes for this, unless?"
"Unless he really wants to betray the Aojin Empire!" As soon as these words came out, Marcas himself was taken aback.
"No way! Don't forget that Lei Bin is our proud family, he will never do such a thing!" Marcas quickly denied his claim.
"I hope so!" Li Zijun sighed slightly, and then frowned again.
Marcas thought that Li Zijun was worried about Lei Bin, but in fact, at this moment, Li Zijun was thinking of another person:
"How could Victor make such an obvious mistake?" Li Zijun's heart suddenly raised such a question. (To be continued......)
