"Hey, blame me, blame me. Guang was only thinking about how to suppress the rebels, and neglected to beware of aliens."
General Liwa blamed himself again and again, with a look of remorse on his face, but he quickly recovered his composure, stood up and came to the map, intending to make amends as soon as possible.
"Brand, where is the alien army now? Point it out."
Brand stepped forward and glanced at the map, raised his hand and drew a circle on an area, "Return to General, it should be this generation."
General Liwa's frown deepened, obviously feeling troubled by the current situation.
Although Brand came back in time to convey the information, it was too late to mobilize the army to keep the aliens out of the North, so they could only respond quickly to reduce losses.
"Pass the old man's order! Order the battalions to quickly prepare and pull out the battalions. The military situation is urgent and cannot be neglected! Anyone who violates it will be killed!"
Following Liwa's order, the quiet military camp immediately became noisy, and countless figures started to move forward and backward, dismantling tents, preparing food, and counting the number of people, everything was advancing in an orderly manner.
Although the experienced generals and soldiers couldn't understand why they suddenly went out to fight, this did not prevent them from strictly implementing Liwa's orders, and eagerly looking forward to the upcoming battle.
In this period when the empire was not yet completely corrupt, the only way for warriors to stand out was through military exploits on the battlefield, which made all soldiers happy when they heard about the battle.
The noisy movement of the imperial army naturally alarmed Cu Chulainn, who was watching him, and he raised his head from the snowdrifts and looked over curiously.
"I didn't expect that there would be an action so soon? It seems that the action is not small. It should be going to hit us?"
Cu Chulainn jumped out of the snow cave, his red eyes narrowed, and his handsome face had a dangerous smile like a hound staring at its prey.
"Send an early warning message to the military division and go back. More detailed information needs to be investigated. Hey, this is obviously the work of Assassin."
Relying on the rune runes to send back information by magic, Cu Chulainn bent his knees and jumped onto the branch, and he was able to shuttle freely in mid-air like a swallow in the forest, inspecting the combat preparations in the imperial barracks.
"Do you want to throw a rune and directly point out their granaries? Without food, let's see how you continue to fight."
Looking down at the piles of grain and grass below, Cu Chulainn squatted on the branches and shook up and down slightly, even the branches under his feet swayed slightly.
Kacha-! !
Before Cu Chulainn could finish studying the feasibility of the sabotage work, his unsolvable luck as a spearman broke out.
With the crisp sound of a branch breaking, the unsuspecting blue spearman fell from mid-air, and fell face-down into the snow.
"Who? Come out!"
The huge movement alarmed the imperial soldiers who were carrying and arranging the food, causing them to yell and pick up their weapons and surround them, with their swords out of their sheaths and their spears standing upright.
"Bah! Bah! Bah!"
Cu Chulainn, whose face was covered with snow, stood up, still holding a few withered yellow weeds in his mouth, and his forehead was also flushed.
"Really, if I knew I wouldn't have a gun in my hand, I would definitely not have any bad luck if I replaced it with a staff."
Cu Chulainn complained to himself, and raised his hand to greet the imperial army who surrounded him. There was no panic of being surrounded in his unruly smile.
"Hahaha, accidentally failed the investigation. Don't bother everyone, see you later!"
Before Liwa, Brand and other strong men in the army arrived, Cu Chulainen resolutely dodged and retreated, stepped on the shoulders of the soldiers and ran out of the encirclement into the jungle without a trace.
Chapter 379 We solemnly promise not to use the old man of the mountain first
"A spy from the rebel army? You have some skills, and you can touch the important place of the granary so ostentatiously."
In the big tent, General Liwa looked at the group of generals and officers who knelt down and pleaded guilty, with a little anger condensed on his unsmiling face.
"Each person is required to receive twenty military sticks according to the military regulations, but for the sake of the army's upcoming expedition, let's write it down for now! Go back and strengthen the guards at important places. If something happens again, this old man will want your heads! Get out! !"
Accompanied by General Liwa's roar and scolding like an angry lion, all the criminals left the camp in despair, and ran to make up for their mistakes.
After everyone left, Brand clasped his fists and saluted and offered his suggestion to Liva.
"General, now Liangshan City will soon receive information about our army's mobilization, do you need to take precautions? In case these rebels who don't know what to do will stab their knives in the back?"
General Liwa pondered for a while when he heard the words, and finally sighed helplessly.
"You are right in reminding me, but right now there are at least 20 foreign troops attacking, but our army is less than [-], and we are already unable to divide our troops."
Hearing what Liva said, Brand didn't look surprised at all.
He is also outstanding in military affairs, and he has long realized the problem of insufficient troops. Unless he has a Tegushi with a strategic level like General Budd, otherwise this defensive battle will be very difficult.
As for the issue of support, let's not talk about how long it will take for the news of the alien invasion to reach the imperial capital, even if it is impossible to ask for help from other provinces nearby.
Some time ago, the northeast border had fallen into the hands of Zhuge Kongming, while the northwest border was even more desolate than the northern border. Where could one find reinforcements on the vast Gobi Desert?
"Don't worry, Brand. The foreign race is here to burn, kill and loot. Zhuge is a smart man. I think he should not do something like a sneak attack from behind."
Liwa saw Brand's worry and spoke some words of relief, but Brand still had hesitation in his heart.
"General, can the rebels really be trusted? I've heard that the rebels in the south have betrayed the country by uniting with the barbarians."
Seeing Brand's tangled appearance, Liwa, who had a serious face, showed a rare smile, and taught earnestly with the attitude of an elder:
"Brand, we will never trust the rebels. Even if the old man makes such a judgment, he will still send scouts to be on guard. No one can trust him more than himself."
Brand suddenly realized, and he no longer hesitated or thought about it, because those things that haven't happened have no meaning to think about.
"However, since you brought up this matter, let's leave it to you," Liva said.
Brand was stunned immediately, and his expression became anxious. He knew that Liwa wanted to transfer himself from the battlefield.
"Wait, General! This..."
"You needn't say it, Liangshan City's rebel army is very powerful. Once they launch a surprise attack on our department, they will definitely pull out the scattered scouts in advance. Among these people, the old man only thinks that you, as Tegu envoy, are the most likely to come back alive Reported."
The reason given by General Liwa does not allow Brand to refute the slightest, because it is an unmistakable fact, not to mention that it is impossible for soldiers to disobey the orders of their superiors.
"Yes! General!!"
Brand, who stood upright, responded loudly, then turned and left without looking back.
Looking at the back of Brand leaving, Liwa sat back on the chair in a slumped manner, as if he had aged ten years for a moment.
"A foreign army of more than 20? The possibility of winning is really small. It seems that the empire cannot escape this catastrophe. Hey..."
Just when General Liwa was frustrated, Kong Ming, who was far away in Liangshan City, also received the news from Cu Chulainn, knowing the abnormal mobilization of the imperial army.
"Is the imperial frontier army dispatched? It seems that something happened in the north."
After roughly reading the information at a glance, the wise military strategist immediately made a judgment, and at the same time realized that the vacation he managed to get was about to be wasted again.
"Now I don't know how many alien races from the north have attacked, but it should not be too rare, otherwise Liwa would not be so nervous."
Gently flapping the pure white feather fan in his hand, Zhuge Kongming paced back and forth in the room, his black eyes shining with the light of wisdom.
"It's impossible to directly send troops to help the imperial army. It's impossible for them to accept help from the rebels. It's fine if we don't guard against our fraud. But based on the current situation, the imperial army may not be able to stop the iron hooves of the aliens. Then It would be a bad idea to let these robbers break in."
The development plan set by Zhuge Kongming is all centered around the northern border. If foreign races are allowed to rush in and wantonly destroy it, then it will be a global development and construction, which will directly be disaster relief and reconstruction.
"It seems that you can't just sit back and watch the tigers fight and wait for both sides to lose. You have to do it with Laliva."
After calculating all kinds of decisions in his mind, Zhuge Kongming still didn't intend to stand idly by. He thought that he also dealt with Meng Huo back then. If he didn't really have the energy, he could really do the same to the foreign race.
"Come here, go and invite General Lu Bu Fengxian, I have something to tell him."
During the waiting time, Zhuge Kongming took the trouble to go through all the big and small things in Liangshan City, and he relaxed after not finding any mistakes.
Lu Bu Fengxian, who was fully armed, soon appeared in the City Lord's Mansion, and walked into Zhuge Kongming's study with vigorous steps.
"Military division, what is the reason for calling a certain family here? Could it be that there is a war going on somewhere?"
Lu Bufeng opened his mouth to ask questions straight to the point. As a top-notch and peerless general, he is definitely a model of being overjoyed after hearing the battle. He will never be idle even if he is free. He must find someone to practice.
"That's right, this time the opponent is a foreign race in the north." Kong Ming nodded.
Lu Bu was a little surprised, but he didn't feel disappointed: "Oh? A guy like the Huns? It seems that a certain family still has a chance to emulate the matter of sealing wolves and living in Xuxu this time."
"The battle is urgent, and I ask General Lu to order troops to go out immediately. The old man has written a bag of advice for everything, and I will trouble the general to read it on the way."
As Kong Ming said, he took out the tip bag he had written long ago from his wide sleeve, and Lu Bu Feng took it first and left in a hurry.
"That's it, it doesn't matter if you can't deal with the group of aliens, anyway, the old man still has Wang Zha, the old man of the mountain."
Looking at the back of Lu Bu Fengxian who was drifting away, Zhuge Kongming calmly took a sip of tea.
"As long as all the leaders of the foreign race are given to Wushuang, the rest of the loose sand is nothing worth mentioning. Well, we solemnly promise that we will never use the old man of the mountain first..."
At the same time, what is the old man doing who Kong Ming considers to be a strategic deterrent?
Chapter 3 Eighty
After countless failures, Chitong and Estes managed to catch river tuna almost at the same time.
The river tuna is only about the size of a palm, and it can be seen that it is a small fish that has not yet entered the mature stage. It is not enough to fill the stomach for lunch, but it is undeniable that it is a success.
"That's right, let's keep working hard." Kuangxinzi encouraged after verifying the real prey.
Chitong and Estes nodded, and looked at each other, and an atmosphere of competition involuntarily rose, as if the two were naturally at odds.
"Get to know me, my name is Estes, and I am currently practicing with Master Alsace."
The girl with ice-blue long hair broke the delicate atmosphere first, with a smile on her lips, she extended her hand to Chi Tong generously, like a proud queen receiving her courtiers.
"Chitong, the Assassin student in the assassination classroom, please give me more advice."
The girl with black hair and red pupils was unmoved, not overwhelmed by Esdeth's aura, and stretched out her hand to shake him.
"Red pupil? The name is very appropriate." Estes smiled.
Chitong didn't care about Esdeth's slightly teasing tone, and responded solemnly: "Thank you, I think so too."
While speaking, they had already reached the pool, and the water was quite lively at this time.
With the successful cases of the two, those students who were about to give up once again ignited their enthusiasm, and began to fight wits and courage with river tuna, using all their prehistoric strength to catch fish.
After all, this is the age of being competitive, and no one wants to admit that they are inferior to others.
Standing on the shore, Estes stretched out his arms and did a few stretching exercises, turning his head to look at Chitong who was also warming up.
"Hey, do you want to compete? Let's see who can catch more fish."
Hearing Estes' words, Chitong, who was moving his ankle and wrist joints, turned to look at him.
Originally, she wanted to refuse, because she really only caught fish to fill her stomach for lunch and dinner, but after seeing Esdeth's serious eyes, Chitong agreed as if by a ghost.
"No problem, let's judge the winner by the weight of the prey. I think this is more fair."
Estes nodded and accepted Chitong's proposal. The hunting competitions held in the Baluts clan also use this kind of judging criteria. Of course, sometimes the rarity and preciousness of the prey should also be considered.
The rules have been finalized, so it's time to find a referee, and Esthers has already planned for this.
"Master Alsace, may I invite you to be the referee of the match?"
"Oh? Is it a hunting competition? It's kind of interesting. Please rest assured that I will be responsible for judging."
The idle man on the mountain showed some interest, so he readily agreed to Esther's request, and even further added some excitement to the game.
"The time limit for the competition is one hour, and the person who can catch more river tuna wins, and for the winner, I will personally teach him the skill of one-stroke assassination."
As soon as these words came out, Esdeth's eyes lit up instantly, and Chi Tong, who had also seen Wang Hassan's attack, was no exception, and his breathing became a little short of breath.
"I must win. If I can get the true biography of Master Alsace, I will definitely become stronger!"
"Assassination skills? Could it be the knife that killed the centipede? No matter, in order to protect Hei Tong, I must become stronger!"
The two who were originally competitors looked at each other, bursting out with a strong momentum of unyielding, as if a crackling electric current flashed between their eyes, and intuitively felt the determination of the other party's will.
For this, the old man of the mountain is very pleased, what he wants is this kind of competitive posture.
Because only when everyone forges and sharpens each other with the whetstone, can the most dazzling jade in the rough be created in the end.
"Now, let's get started!"
Following Wang Hassan's order, Chitong and Esdeth rushed out from the spot, jumped into the water like flying, and started hunting again.
Although they acted in a hurry, the girls still maintained the most basic calmness in their hearts.
The two separated left and right very tacitly, and did not search for prey in the same water area to compete, which is undoubtedly a very wise choice.
Chitong swims smoothly in the water, recalling the previous hunting process in the process of tuna in the river.
Although it was only successful once, if you can do it the first time, then you can naturally do it the second time and the third time.
With countless repetitions of training, the body's muscle memory will remember that feeling, and finally it will be a matter of course.
Clever Chitong obviously firmly remembered the feeling of instant success, she silently lurked next to a plump river tuna, slashed out with the knife like a lightning strike, and succeeded in one blow.
Although she still has some half-understanding, she has already grasped the key tricks, and the next hunting is really smooth.
