0335: Best At Assassination.
0335: Best At Assassination.
The scorching sun was in the sky, and Liguang City at noon did not have the atmosphere of autumn at all.
After a night of precipitation, the strong bloody smell of yesterday was no longer in the city.
Inside the castle, Qiao Ji got up for training as usual this morning, had a simple breakfast and waited for the scouting knight to bring back information.
The few green barbarians who deliberately left alive last night didn't know anything about the situation in the surrounding cities, otherwise they would have acted this morning.
Lei Nai also recovered after a night's rest, and specially followed Qiao Ji to train in the morning.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
A scouting knight stepped into the castle hall, saluted respectfully and reported, "My lord, there are thousands of green barbarians gathered in Red Forest City, which is fifty miles away from Li Guang City.
"Are there any green barbarian "July 13" people in the villages and towns around Honglin City?" Qiao Ji asked seriously.
"No trace of the green barbarian was found." The scouting knight said immediately.
"Understood." Qiao Ji waved his hand to signal the knight to go down and rest.
"Yes." The scout knight nodded knowingly, turned and left the castle hall.
Qiao Ji stroked her chin with one hand while thinking, and said in a deep voice after a while, "Call Agnelli and Shi Duo here.
"Yes." The knight guarding the hall responded immediately.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
In less than five minutes, Agnelli and Shi Duo walked into the hall and saluted together.
"Let the uninjured knights and soldiers gather, and set off for Red Forest City in an hour." Qiao Xing looked at the two with sharp eyes.
He put his hands on the armrest and continued, "Leave a thousand soldiers, a hundred knights, and twenty bed crossbows stationed here."
The people from the Chamber of Commerce for Transporting Backpacks on the Mountain have not yet arrived, and the supplies have not been transported away. In addition, there are still wounded in the city, so they cannot be transferred all at once.
"Yes." Agnelli and Shi Duo responded in unison, turned and left the castle.
Da da da
ABS------
Lei Nai blinked his curly eyelashes slowly, and asked softly, "My lord, didn't the governor say to drive all the green barbarians to the provincial capital of Taihui? Why do you have to go to such lengths to save the cities?"
"If we don't wipe them out now, it will be dangerous if the green barbarians gather to outflank the rear." Yin Ji said calmly.
In fact, there is another reason, that is, it is hard to be assigned to free action, so you must accumulate more credits.
Qiao Ji did some calculations, and judging from the merits of saving the city alone, his title can be promoted to one level.
"I see." Lei Nai nodded half-understanding.
Time passed by every minute and every second, and it was very close to the time of departure. Six thousand soldiers gathered in the square of Liguang City.
The bed crossbow carriage and the carriage with supplies were also ready, and Luna took the trainee doctor along.
Hundreds of soldiers were lost in the two-day battle. Excluding the wounded soldiers who stayed behind in Liguang City, only 6,000 soldiers could be taken away by Yin Ji.
"My lord, you can go." Agnelli came to Qiao Ji on a horse.
"Let's go." Qiao Ji said loudly.
"yes.
Agnelli nodded, turned around and shouted, "Let's all set out, the destination is Red Forest City."
"Yes." The knights and soldiers responded in unison.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
The team left the square of Liguang City in a mighty manner, and headed towards the direction of Honglin City.
After more than five hours, the team stopped in the forest ten miles away from Honglin City and began to rest and adjust their state.
At this time, it was already past six o'clock in the evening, and since winter was still a few days away, it got dark very quickly.
Inside a big tent, Qiao Ji, Lei Nai, and Agnelli gathered around a bonfire.
Behind Qiao Ji stood a large wooden board, on which was the map of Red Forest City brought back by the scouting knights.
"Lei Nai, in half an hour, you take the two teams of Dragon Shadow Knight Battalion to Red Forest City."
Qiao Ji's jewel-like eyes looked at the black cat girl, and said seriously, "Secretly assassinate the green barbarians who are patrolling and standing guard, and then open the city gate."
He knew that Lei Nai was holding on last night, if he hadn't arrived in time, he might have been killed by the green barbarians.
We can't attack by force tonight, it will lose too much manpower, and it will take a lot of time, it's better to save time by direct assassination.
"Yes." Lei Nai replied with all his attention..
"Agnelli and Shi Duo are always ready to lead the knights and soldiers into the city when the city gate opens."
Pointing to the map brought back by the scouting knight, Qiao Ji paused and said, "If you rush into the city, use the bed crossbow to open the way, and minimize casualties as much as possible."
"Yes." Agnelli and Shi Duo responded at the same time.
"Crackling........."
The bonfire in the tent was burning brightly, and it made people's faces a little red, and it was very warm and comfortable.
Half an hour passed quickly, and in the open space outside the tent, Lei Nai put on a suit of leather armor, with a military crossbow pinned to his waist, ready to go.
The two teams of the Dragon Shadow Knight Battalion also put on leather armor. They had to use the black cat girl's silk thread to climb up the city wall. It would be very inconvenient to wear armor.
The point is that it is easy to make the sound of armor colliding with armor. At night, even the slightest movement may attract the attention of the green barbarians.
Standing beside Lei Nai, Qiao Ji pinched the latter's pretty face with his hands, and said earnestly, "No matter what, your own safety comes first, if you can't do it, just retreat."
"Don't worry, my lord, assassination is what I'm best at." Lei Nai raised his snow-white chin confidently.
She attracted the attention of many green barbarians yesterday, so she was a little overwhelmed. It would be different if it was an assassination, not to mention that there were many people who acted together tonight.
"Okay." Qiao Ji nodded slightly.
After Lei Nai made a cute expression to Qiao 3.9 season, he got on his horse and led the people from the Dragon Shadow Knight Battalion away from the garrison.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
As the black cat girl left, Agnelli and Shi Duo also turned around and arranged for the knights and soldiers to get ready.
Qiao Ji turned his head to look at the scouting knight, and ordered, "Continue to investigate the surrounding cities, and report back once you find green barbarians.
"Yes." The scouting knight responded immediately.
"Tap Tat Tat..."
Qiao Ji stepped back into the tent, took out a pen and paper, and prepared to write a letter to Eve, Dinah, and Lian Xin.
After all, he has been out for so long, and wants to see how the imperial capital is doing recently.
