Vol 3 Chapter 86

Signs of the Eighty-Sixth Act of War (Fourth more, so stay tuned)

Here is the battlefield more than ten days ago-

There seems to be a faint smell of gunpowder in the air-even in winter, the dead bodies have been cleaned up according to Brando's strict requirements. The spreading plague is not a joke, even if the weather is young in the cold People are unwilling to take this risk.

Therefore, in addition to the blood on the open ground at this moment, only the occasional armor and weapon fragments scattered between the grass can prove that a fierce battle has occurred here.

And some kind of bird with gray-black feathers-blackbird or raven, swept across the battlefield from a low altitude. The northerly winds became more bleak, and the weather became drier and colder day by day.

Because of the lack of sacrifice, Brando had to deal with the corpses in a simpler way.

A few black smoke columns at the sky are proof that the smoke and dust passed over the forest, like the scene of the last days. When several scouts entered this old battlefield cautiously, they could not help but glance at the black smoke column of the southern sky.

They crouched down, examined the battlefield carefully, then stood up again, looking at each other.

They were spies from Palas, who had come here day and night since they had heard of the catastrophic defeat of Sir Minthai-at first they did not believe that the mob was so capable.

But as they passed by Sir Mintai's collar, they were surprised to find that the jazz's territory had been occupied by another group. Some of them have seen those people-a mercenary regiment called the "Amber Sword". They led a group of refugees across the border a few months ago, saying they were going to open up in the wilderness.

The last word about these people came to stay in Grisham, but God knew how they would return here again.

But the scouts' doubts were actually very simple to answer, as Brando knew that Sir Minthai would attack the fir collar. In this case, you are welcome to come and go. In his letter to the druids, he has requested that the Red Copper Dragon Reto immediately lead people across the Patton wilderness, waiting for Sir Mintai to leave and immediately copy his nest. .

Poor Sir Mintai never imagined that a mob would be so bold, so in fact from the beginning of the war, the Lord Sir suffered a big loss. Of course he didn't know it. By the time he knew it, he would already be a prisoner of Brando's.

But the scouts didn't know these details. They only spotted the troops with the keen instinct unique to the spies. Then they hurriedly left Sir Mintai's territory, and stared down and crossed the Gris River to the south. This happened a short time ago. Land of war.

Of course, the battle in their hearts, according to Brando, is called 'village-level fighting.'

I have seen Brando in a real war, and to be honest, he has never worried about whether he can defeat Sir Mintai, which is why he dare to let Fern and the leader of the Battlefield Fern and Klenhia command. s reason.

But Brando also knew that there would be a fierce battle next.

At this moment, one end of this vicious war lead is held by these scouts who have sneaked into the territory of young people--

"The rumor is true."

After scouting for four weeks, a scout stood up and said to other companions, "Sir Mintai has been defeated, and it has been a terrible defeat."

Everyone was silent.

Although they had already expected this result, the news of Sir Mintai's fiasco has spread on both sides of the Gris River recently, and it will not be long before it reaches the ears of Lord Palas.

But first they confirmed the news, they still couldn't help getting mad.

Everyone's eyes turned to the veteran of the most experienced and open-minded group of veterans. The experienced scout thought for a moment and said:

"It's most important to get the news back. This is a bit weird. I've been scouting for so long. I haven't heard that the mob there is so powerful--" He glanced around: "This is an ambush."

"ambush?"

"I heard Captain Caglis also participated in this war." A scout said that Caglis in his mouth was the son of Sir Mintai-if you have good memory, you will remember this young man once Worked for a while under Palas.

But it's not just that.

Caglios didn't brag about himself, because Pallas had no children, he always regarded the young man as himself and taught him all his experience in the war. The young man's performance did not disappoint the old knight. He performed well in the battle with the mountain people and enjoyed a high reputation under Palas.

Even if he wanted to turn to His Royal Highness Princess Griffin, it was also agreed by the old knight. Although Palas himself was loyal to Count Dénell, in fact, he was more inclined to the King's Party. He hoped that his self-discipline disciple could embark on the road of revival for Zoeruin.

After the scout spoke, he added with some doubts: "How did Captain Carglis be ambushed, and when he led us, we had not been fooled by those cunning mountain people."

The scouts were silent, it was too weird.

But the veteran waved his hand: "I have a suggestion that we split the army in two ways. On the one hand, you take the letter back to Lord Palas. On the one hand, we move on, look at Fir City, and try our luck- "

"It's too risky," said a young scout.

"There is no scout and no risk." The veteran waved his hand: "I have the highest position here, listen to my orders, you all go back, and you can leave two people with me."

After listening to the order, the scouts glanced at each other. They were not worried about what danger they would encounter. They were all elites of Palas. But since they went south, the whole thing has a mysterious taste, which made them retreat for the first time.

...

Scouts were arguing outside the forest, and Fern and Klenthia in the forest glanced at each other, and then they turned back and saw that the young man in the red robe was sitting on a rock not far away, and was caved aside Patriarch Tajib was looking at Shire with awe.

The young wizard's spell completely obscured the breath of several of them, and even the clever scout could not find them. Otherwise, at this distance, Fern is really not sure whether the experienced scouts will notice anything.

When he was serving in the Cavalry Cavalry Regiment, he had seen many scouts in the army, and sometimes he himself occasionally served as a scout or two as a cavalry.

But as experienced as the scouts outside, he has only seen in the most elite teams.

That is definitely a first-class elite.

But what made him even more surprised was the identity of Shire, who came from Karasu and naturally saw those mysterious Highland wizards. He can be 100% sure that Shire and those people are the same kind of people, and they have the same breath-the smell of the Highlands and the Black Tower.

He heard people say that Brando was a highland knight, and at this moment he couldn't help but believe. Can I have a mentor wizard as the obedient Highlander?

What is that there?

When Fern's mind was a little confused, Clenthia had once again taken away the look from the forest: "The courage is really big."

He was talking about scouts outside.

The scouts had split their way, heading for Fir City all the way, preparing to go north back to Paras. They broke up outside the forest, and the figure soon disappeared at both ends of the avenue.

"Hey," Shire looked in that direction, raising his eyebrows slightly—he looked very much like Brando, and in the mind of this young wizard, Brando could be said to be one of the best masters—Gao Shenmo Test, seems to know everything.

He has been deliberately imitating Brando's every move recently, and there are already some signs of going crazy. But then he laughed at himself and laughed again: "Caglis? I didn't expect that the little guy was so famous among the scouts under Palas. He was clamoring every day to fight with one of you. Does an adult have no idea? "

Fern and Klenthia's faces instantly became weird.

The young man who caused them the most trouble during the ambush against Sir Mintel that day was the young man named Carglis. The opponent's ability to judge the battlefield was really not covered. Even Fern, who was a veteran, was amazed. Otherwise, if they finally caught Sir Mintai alive, maybe the young man would kill the blood.

However, at the beginning, it was also Shire who watched the joke of the three old seniors, Tiger Bird, Fern and Klenhia. They had no problem with the package ticket, but in the end they had a leak.

Otherwise, if Charles shot himself, Caglios would have to obey even if he had wings.

But because of this, the young man has not been convinced until now. Although he did not say such a naive word from scratch as a soldier, he was still dangling in the dungeon to ask with Clenthia, Tiger Finch or It was Fern duel.

This boy's swordsmanship is also superb. Karenhijah's idea of ​​teaching the other party did not expect to eat a secret loss. From then on, the birds, Fern, and Kerenhia walked around the dungeon. Lest they cause embarrassment.

Shire told Brando that there was a little guy who needed him to educate, in fact it was the young man.

Seeing the strange looks of the two chiefs, the young man shook his head with a smile, "So what are you going to do about this?"

He shifted the subject and pointed outside.

"What to do?" Silver-haired middle-aged man looked at Shire with a questioning gaze.

The conversation between the three seemed to ignore Tajib aside, which made the cave patriarch somewhat dissatisfied-when it was said that its people had discovered these sneaking scouts, they immediately notified the humans.

However, Shir apparently did not forget the cave patriarch who has not been happy these days. He first nodded to Tajib: "Of course, this thing is still Tajib's credit first. As for how to do it— —The few who went to our site must get them up. As for how to deal with them, it ’s the Lord ’s business— ”

Tajib listened stiffly.

"What about the others?" Fern asked, frowning, listening to Shire's meaning to let go of those scouts who returned to report.

Charles nodded: "Let them go, this is what Lord Lord meant."

What does that young man mean?

Fern and Klenthia glanced at each other. What did the young noble want? Putting those scouts back is likely to cause Palas to be alert, then what will happen next, but no one can say that.

But Charles did not answer this question, he just looked up at the sky-thought to himself, it seems that this time his lord master is going to play big.

...

(***. Ah, it's another one, are you right?)
