C39 (2/2)
Two days later, the left and right wing guards, who were the vanguard, received news from the Wulian Border Army troops one after another. They had already found a large number of traces of Demonic Beast gathering in their surroundings. According to his observations, this time, the Demonic Beast gathering consisted of Demon Tigers and Demon Bears. At present, it was impossible to determine if they were the same type of armored Demonic Beast as the Pao Lai County, but the total number of Demonic Beast should not be less than five thousand.
At this time, Shi Donglai's Border Army had already suffered over a thousand casualties. With seven thousand Border Army against five thousand Demonic Beast, he was no longer in possession of any strength anymore. Considering the special nature of the feint quest, Shi Donglai could already order the retreat.
However, the old soldier did not do that. He looked at the map for a long time, took out a charcoal pen and drew a circle about ten miles away from here. Then, he turned to instruct the staff officer, ”Here! and order the whole army to stand guard here. ”
”Lord Shi!” You should prepare to leave with your brothers. ” Qu Feizhi could not help but advise.
Shi Donglai glared as he asked, ”Are you the commander of the Wulian Border Army? If that's not the case, then shut up! ”
With just a few words, Qu Feizhi was tongue-tied, and did not know how to continue.
Shi Donglai pointed at Chen Chu with his finger: ”You brat, inform your Lord Xiu, prepare yourself immediately. The moment we occupy this mountain, is the time for you to leave.”
Chen Chu didn't make a sound. He stood at attention with his legs together, and gave a military salute to Shi Donglai with a 'pa'. Then, he turned around and left the house.
For the next few hours, there was no farewell, no handover, no tears. The two troops were clearly separated. The true strength of the Wulian Border Army was displayed under the gazes of the Phoenix City Pass Red Camp Knight s. The entire troop disappeared into the forest like ghosts, and rushed towards the small mountain five kilometers away.
Xiu'er stood under the tree, silently watching Shi Donglai's Commander Flag disappear into the forest. She silently bowed deeply towards the flag. After a long while, she straightened her body and waved her right hand, ”Let's go!”
Qu Feizhi turned his head and asked Chen Chu: ”Old Chen, tell me, if Xiu'er ~ ~ Lord Xiu were to go and chat with Old Man Shi, would it be possible to persuade the old man to at least not be so stubborn?”
Chen Chu rolled his eyes and said: ”feint is just a request for Master Shi's help, he still has his own plans. If I'm not wrong, he wants to force out those so-called armored Demonic Beast and see their true strength. ”Although he complains about the empire, when he encounters an unknown enemy, he will still go and test out their strength, so that the empire will be prepared.”
Qu Feizhi shook his head: ”He is clearly hot-blooded, yet his mouth is still so stubborn ~ ~”
Chen Chu sighed lightly. ”If it wasn't for the fact that you loved me so deeply, who would still blame me?”
Just at this time, the Xiu'er turned her head and said with a slightly cold voice. ”Since we all know, then we must work even harder. At the very least, you have to be able to face so many lives dying because of us! ” After saying this, she turned around and took a step forward, not saying a single word.
Qu Feizhi stuck his tongue out at Chen Chu and quickly followed.
After they walked for a distance of four to five miles, a large group of people suddenly charged out from the thorns and blocked their way. It was none other than strong man, who made a bet with Xiu'er.
strong man cupped his hands at the three people: Lord Xiu, Master Qu, Master Chen! Master Shi has sent me here to wait for you all. ”
Xiu'er returned the greeting and asked: ”I wonder what orders Master Shi has for Big Brother strong man to come here?”
strong man replied loudly, ”Lord Shi has sent me to lead five hundred of our brothers from Border Army to assist you in crossing the Wulian Mountain Range as soon as possible!”
