Lord of the Misty World

Chapter 166 The Opposite Territory

"Dongdao County, that's fine too."

Zhang Xiu nodded. After all, all the territories in the Qinghe Territory were newly acquired, and if they needed to be named, they could only be named according to the county's location, location, special products, and functions.

After confirming the location of the county seat, Zhang Xiu needs to start preparing for the establishment of a new county government office, because a group of people were selected from the group of refugees who followed Li Xiuning before, barely making up for the lack of staff at the grassroots level in Qinghe.

Now that the new county government affairs department is being established, it is not a problem to transfer a group of people.Moreover, with the graduation of those older students in the school in the past two years.

Although these students are not highly educated, they are also a group of important talents for Qinghe leaders. Some of them were directly taken away by Zhang Xiu and added to various counties to become small officials.

When Di Feng and Zhang Xiu were giving orders to mobilize the troops, when Chen arrived at the location of the Bai Mu Army, they finally welcomed the personnel from the opposite Mist Territory.

At this time, Chen Dao's Bai Mu army was building a defense line, and the distance from the border of the misty territory on the opposite side was actually only about one kilometer away. The forest within this kilometer range was cut down by Chen Dao immediately.

And on the line of defense, the soldiers of the Baimai Army first piled up several small mounds with undulations of several meters, and a tall sentry tower was erected on it.

At this time, when the soldiers of the Bailu army were building defense lines, bunkers, and sentry towers, a reconnaissance team appeared at the border of the misty territory opposite.

There were ten people in this scouting team, led by a knight in white armor and nine soldiers who looked like militiamen came here.

Seeing that there was suddenly an extra piece at the border of the territory that was originally foggy, and he kept thinking about extending it into the distance, the knight was a little surprised, and immediately became cautious, and explored carefully.

"This area appeared with the collision of the foggy territory. The northern area is still covered with mountains, but here it has become a plain. It's really amazing."

The knight arrived here with a reconnaissance team, and he also discovered the value of this place at first sight.

"Maybe at the same time, Lord Viscount. This is a strategic route, and it is in contact with the mist territory on the opposite side. The situation may be very dangerous. I don't know what will happen on the other side. Maybe Lord Viscount should send troops to support."

But at this time, the knight had already arrived at the border, and just after walking a few hundred meters, the knight's face suddenly changed. In front of him, he could see a forest that had been cut down, leaving only wooden posts.

There are still a lot of traces of dragging and horseshoes on the ground. Such traces look very fresh, which means that the Mist Lord on the opposite side has sent troops to explore this area.

"what is that."

After walking forward for a while, the knight was surprised to find that a group of busy people appeared in front of him, and on those few mounds, he could still see the guard tower.

"Are these human beings? They look different from us." The knight glanced over and found that these people had black hair and black pupils, which were different from his blond hair and blue eyes.

"Foreigners, things are troublesome."

The knight stopped exploring, and immediately said to the militiamen who followed.

"Everyone, return immediately, we must report this matter to Lord Viscount."

Turning the horse's head, the knight retreated quickly with the militiamen, but his every move was watched by the soldiers on duty on the sentry tower.

But seeing that there were only a few people this time, the soldiers immediately notified the soldiers on the ground after seeing it, and they reported the situation to the headquarters and were ready to contact.

But unexpectedly, this team retreated before they had time to make contact, and even the patrol cavalry team retreated before they had time to set off.

Soon, the news was sent to Chen Dao at the headquarters. Hearing the news, Chen Dao said in surprise. "Oh, the foggy territory on the opposite side sent personnel to explore, but they retreated after only a few hundred meters away."

"Since you're gone, don't worry about it." Chen Dao said. "Continue to patrol, but increase your vigilance."

Seeing that Chen Dao didn't seem to care at this time, a deputy beside Chen Dao asked. "Commander, let's not send troops to arrest them and ask about the situation on the other side."

"No need." Chen Dao said casually.

"It's just an exploration team, and it only came to explore after a day later. This kind of mobilization proves that the enemies we contacted don't seem to be too strong, or they don't care too much about this place.

Moreover, it is only a small team, and it is only to ask for information when they are arrested, and it is easy to cause misunderstandings. If they fight because of this, it will not meet our purpose of occupying this piece of land.

Might as well put them back.Knowing that there is a unit under the Mist Lord here, then the people on the other side will send someone with a high enough status to contact them at that time, and we can also learn about the situation on the other side.

And judging from the mobilization force on the other side, it will take at least a day or two for this team to go back. Let's hurry up, and the defense line can be almost repaired.

In this way, even if the opponent really fights, we still have a geographical advantage and can completely occupy this area. "

"So that's how it is." Standing beside Chen Dao, the deputy said suddenly after listening to Chen Dao's explanation.

"Okay, don't stay here anymore." Chen Dao got up and said to the deputy beside him.

"You personally take people to patrol the defense line again. Although the enemy may be late, you have to be prepared for a sudden attack. Let everyone pay attention. It's time for me to train the troops. You and I will report after the patrol. "

"Yes, commander-in-chief." The deputy said seriously, and left the headquarters.

On the other side, the knights returned quickly with the militia.

Passing through two border villages along the way, they arrived at a manor only three kilometers away from the border. This manor covers an area of ​​hundreds of acres of land.

The manor is surrounded by three-meter-high walls made of rock and mud. Inside is a training ground and some vineyards. There is also a small three-story stone castle in the center of the manor.

After arriving at the manor, the knight disbanded the militia, quickly entered the manor, found the owner of the manor in the manor, and reported what he saw and heard.

"What did you say."

Hearing the soldier's report, the owner of the manor stood up in surprise and asked loudly.

"You said that the enemy has already built a defense line on the border of my Viscounty, and they are still a foreign nation different from ours."

"Yes, Lord Viscount." The soldier confirmed again.

"This is troublesome." At this moment, Lord Viscount also had a headache for a while. He was just a Viscount, and the number of rulers under him was only more than [-], and the number of soldiers was only a few hundred. How could he be an opponent of the Mist Lord.

"The enemy on the opposite side has come to the border of our Viscounty Land, which is beyond what I can handle alone. I have to report to the Duke." The Viscount immediately picked up his clothes, summoned his knights, and said to himself.
