"Master, the investigation of the Dragon Hunting Canyon ahead has been completed, there is no ambush."
"Oh, how did you scout?"
"It's very simple. I first let Xiao Hong roar for a while and heard no movement. Then I threw a dozen rocks and conducted fire reconnaissance, but there was still no movement."
Granny looked at Roland confidently.
Roland nodded, smiled and said: "You did a good job, let's go!"
Since hunting the Cyclops, Granny stole the skills from the Cyclops and learned the skill of throwing stones, which can be regarded as making up for her shortcomings of not being able to attack from a distance.
Strangely enough, Granny is very powerful, but cannot learn to bow and arrow.
The range is long, but the accuracy is poor.
This has always troubled her, but after learning the Cyclops' attack methods, she opens the door to a new world.
The rocks she throws are not as heavy as the Cyclops, but her accuracy and rate of fire far exceed them.
According to Roland's estimation, her attack power is comparable to the small-caliber rapid-fire naval guns of modern battleships.
She threw stones to explore the path, which was basically equivalent to a round of artillery fire on the top of the mountain.
Unless the creature lurking on the top of the mountain is not a carbon-based creature, there is no way to hide it.
The group of people walked towards the mountain gorge ahead.
As long as you pass this mountain gorge and go forward twenty miles, you will reach Fort Drau.
That's Roland's territory, a safe zone.
This gorge is the final ambush site.
Outside the gorge, Roland ordered the troops to be divided into seven teams, each with about 1000 people, to cross the mountain in batches.
Although he had absolute trust in Granny, he always felt that this trip was too smooth and a little unreal.
He offended many people.
Count Gruul is currently unable to fight back, but the Locke Chamber of Commerce certainly does, and the King of Lower Sarsen will probably be able to retaliate if he wants.
This is the final ambush site. Will his enemies miss this opportunity?
Roland didn't dare to vouch for it.
Seeing Roland being so careful, Yanis didn't say anything, but her expression was a little solemn.
"Roland, let me go up to investigate. If there is someone, I will definitely find it."
Granny didn't like to hear that.
Roland questioned her, she could accept it, whatever the master said was right.
Who could Yanis question?
"Pastor Yanis, are you doubting my investigative abilities?"
"That's not true, but there is nothing wrong with being careful. What if there is a special enemy?"
Seeing that Granny still wanted to argue, Roland pressed down with one hand to stop the argument.
"Granny, Yanis is the commander-in-chief of the entire army, and her orders are my orders. Apologize to her immediately."
Granny puffed her cheeks, a little unconvinced, but still obediently followed Roland's orders.
Knowing Roland's trust in Granny, Yanis smiled and said, "Granny, I don't mean to distrust you. But the world is a big place and there are always some strange things. Do you dare to say that you know everything?"
"Yanice, you are right, it is always good to be careful. But you don't need to go. You are the commander of the entire army and cannot be dispatched casually. I will go up the mountain to see for myself."
What Granny said was reasonable. Agnes couldn't find a reason to refute, so she clasped her hands together, suspended the scepter in front of her, chanted a spell, and added several long-lasting blessings to Granny.
"be careful."
Chapter 083 Don’t use branches as scepters
Granny originally had some objections to Yanis, but she was a person who knew what was good and what was good. Sensing Yanis' kindness, she smiled sheepishly and then turned her eyes to Roland.
Miss Yanis has already given her blessings, why don’t you give me some?
Roland smiled and added several long-lasting buff spells to Granny, then patted her on the shoulder and whispered: "Search carefully and pay attention to safety."
Roland was just cautious out of habit, and he didn't think there must be an ambush in the valley.
But nothing is absolute. If he finds a few masters to squat like he did in the last ambush, Granny's fire reconnaissance may not be effective.
This is why Roland divided his troops into seven teams.
If it hadn't been too time-consuming, he would have divided his troops into thirty teams.
The advantage of this team approach is risk sharing.
As long as the division is small enough, the enemy can only eat one group of soldiers at most.
Roland nodded with satisfaction as he watched Granny climb the mountain with a strong figure.
Agnes, who was standing next to him, said softly: "Roland, I always feel a strange uneasiness in my heart. I can't tell what's wrong, I just feel uneasy."
Roland's expression was solemn.
He was just acting cautiously, but he didn't expect that Yanis would really feel uneasy.
Agnes joined the army at the age of 13 and fought for six years. She experienced more than a hundred battles, large and small. She has such rich combat experience and a sense of danger that she has developed through many dangers. It must be extraordinary.
Roland asked in a deep voice: "What do you think we should do?"
"The best way is to let the troops who have passed through the gorge go directly back to the territory. The remaining 6000 people will go around and go back for one more week. I know you are very busy. You go back first, and I will take care of the rear group."
Roland frowned slightly and reminded softly: "You are about to go home, but asking everyone to go around for hundreds of miles and spend six or seven more days will have a great impact on morale. If it is later confirmed that there was no ambush, it will also damage your prestige. .”
"Compared to the safety of the entire army, these are trivial matters."
Yanis's eyes were clear and she persisted.
Roland saluted directly to Agnis without any hesitation.
"As you command, Miss Agnes!"
He tried to lighten the mood with a joke, but Yanis couldn't laugh.
It can be seen that Roland may not accept her suggestion in his heart, but he has absolute trust in her judgment.
This kind of trust made her feel warm, but it also put a lot of pressure on her.
If she makes a mistake, the 6000 people taking the detour will surely complain about her.
She didn't care about these people's complaints, what she cared about was Roland's trust in her.
If she makes a mistake, will Roland still have absolute trust in her?
In the six years since her debut, she has gone through 230 battles, big and small, without losing any of them.
Victory in every battle is both an honor and a pressure.
She knew how difficult it was for Roland to gather these people, so she didn't want to take any chances.
Can Roland understand her heart?
She bit her lip, said nothing, and summoned the messenger to give the order.
The first team that had passed the gorge continued to move forward, and the other troops formed a team on the spot and circled home.
She knew that this order would be criticized by those arrogant elf generals and even honest druids.
Sure enough, within a few minutes, a chubby druid and a stern-looking elf officer arrived.
"General, a detour of several hundred miles now will have a huge impact on morale. If you are worried, I can go to the mountains to conduct reconnaissance myself."
"Yes, Miss Agnes, I am willing to go with Colonel Susan. Colonel Susan is good at jungles, and I can transform into a bird for aerial reconnaissance. We will be safe if we go together."
The attitudes of Mr. Druid and Colonel Susan were both calm, but the subtext was also clear. They did not want to go around.
Their thoughts are normal. They will go home soon and even smell the delicious food at home. But now they have to go in such a big circle and go home in six or seven days. No one would be happy.
Their suggestion is also very sound. The fourth-level elf ranger and the fourth-level hurricane druid have full detection capabilities. What enemy can be hidden from their eyes?
What's more, there is a high probability that there is no ambush.
They couldn't understand Yanis.
If Yanis hadn't shown superb commanding skills and judgment in this war, their doubts would have been even more intense.
They couldn't bear it at the moment. In their opinion, people make mistakes, and Agnes was obviously wrong this time.
Asking for personal investigation is just a step up for Yanis.
Stop it when you see fit, don't use the branch as a scepter here.
Roland did grant her absolute power, but Roland was not their direct superior (the accompanying Luojia army did not know that Roland was King Luojia). They followed Roland's orders entirely because of Famas/Sandra.
If Roland acts recklessly, they can reserve their opinions.
Agnes was unmoved, snorted coldly, and raised her scepter.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, the chubby Druid quickly said: "Miss Yanis, don't be impatient. Let's listen to Lord Roland's opinion."
The scepter raised by Agnes was frozen in the air. She looked back at Roland, silent.
Roland didn't hesitate at all and said bluntly: "Susan, Carol, I respect your right to express your opinions, but Yanis' command authority cannot be questioned. Execute the order immediately!"
Roland must stand up for Yanis.
Her authority came from his support, and if he hesitated even a little, these unruly fellows would have other ideas.
Roland knew very well what these druids and elves were thinking.
His team is expanding too fast. As the number of people continues to expand, it is very questionable whether these people can unite.
During the attack and defense of Gruul Castle, many elves from small groups fled.
They are not Roland's subordinates to begin with, so they will naturally make choices based on their hearts when faced with life and death threats.
Roland knew that this was not a problem that could be solved by killing a few people to intimidate them.
When he came back this time, he planned to reorganize the army. He must reduce the number of troops and improve their combat effectiveness.
What he needs is an iron army that can attack wherever it goes, not elves that rush around as soon as the Cyclops comes.
It would be best for the elves of Luojia Kingdom to wait until World Tree can no longer hide the secret and reveal the identity of King Luojia.
The Druids are easy to deal with, Famas will sort everything out.
Only the elves of these idle tribes are difficult to deal with.
It was he who came to trick these people.
When I invited people over, I was Xiao Tiantian, but when I became King Luojia, I became Mrs. Niu?This is obviously inappropriate.
This kind of cleverness can only fool you for a while, but it won't last long at all.
If you want it to last, you have to show sincerity.
But this is all in the future. There is only one thing he has to do now, support Yanis.
As the only legion commander under Roland, Yanis's importance is self-evident.
Roland did not allow any voice to question her authority.
Facing his cold order, Druid Carol sighed helplessly, saluted and left.
Elf Susan hesitated again and again, just nodded and turned to leave.
She didn't even salute Yanis.
Chapter 084 Yanis’ Persistence
"return!"
Roland shouted angrily and called Susan to stop.
She can be dissatisfied, but she must obey orders.
This is the military, this is not the attitude towards orders.
Susan stared at Yanis, then turned her angry gaze to Roland, "Sir Roland, I can accept the order, but I will report this matter to General Sandra truthfully. Please forgive me."
