“Marshal, His Majesty has agreed to my request…”in the temporary military camp, a major general officer looked at Rox carefully.
The major general was young but had the strength of a silver knight. However, he had a pair of red horns on his head.
“It went so smoothly…”Rox muttered. Then, he subconsciously looked up to seek the advice of others. However, when he looked up, he saw that the military camp was filled with some confused juniors. Rox immediately smiled bitterly.
The previous generation of generals who had followed the late emperor were now all gone. Enzo and the other six had rebelled, and thirty-four of his former comrades had died tragically in the palace. Gavin was really ruthless.
“Tell the soldiers to prepare to stand by…”Rox said faintly, “Bring your weapons and equipment. If the cavalry doesn’t have horses, change them to short-handed weapons. This battle is not for the Empire, but for survival!”
“UH…”the officers from many years ago were stunned. The major general who was closest to ROX said, “Didn’t His Majesty promise us? Do we still need to… Fight?”
“Ha…”rox sneered, “If he doesn’t agree, we might not be able to fight. If he agrees, this battle is completely unavoidable…”
Rox knew that Gavin, who had always regarded him as a thorn in his side, would not let him take these mutated soldiers away?
He sighed and patted the shoulder of the confused major general. He did not say anything and walked straight out of the military camp. He knew that he had to leave some time for these children to buffer the current situation.
They were in their prime, and it was a good time for them to make a name for themselves. At this time, they should have been fighting for the glory of the Empire and their future titles. They should have either died or returned in glory.
They definitely would not be fighting against their own countrymen…
“Your Majesty… you have given birth to such a stupid son…”Rox not only sighed slightly in his heart, he recalled the king who had fought alongside him and was truly recognized in his heart. …
After leaving the military camp, he walked straight to the corner of a small tent. Inside the tent, there was a woolen carpet. Rainy Melon and a few elven players sat on the ground, the other players were in the other tents.
Rainy Melon was looking at the map seriously. She held a cup of water in her hand as she ate the dry military rations.
These military rations were originally used for expeditions, but because the animals and plants around them had mutated, no one dared to use fresh food.
“How is it?”Rox walked in and sat cross-legged opposite rainy girl, Wugua, and asked.
“Four gates. From the road section, it’s best for us to break through the south gate…”. Rainy Girl, WUGUA, pointed at the map and said, “Go straight to the Empire Avenue to corrency, then enter the south. The East Gate has to go through the Black Rock mountain range to turn to the Empire Avenue, and the West Gate has to go through the Nibo River. Both are very risky “…”. “…”
Rox nodded. He had also seen the situation of the mutation. Other than the Griffins that flew away, most of the mutated creatures in the city were just animals like cats and dogs. They could cause such a big commotion, rox did not dare to imagine what he would encounter if he went through the forest or the river.
Only the Empire Avenue was the safest road…
“Since we want to go to the South Gate, why did you ask me to write a letter requesting to be stationed at the South Gate? Isn’t this exposing our purpose?”Rox frowned slightly.
Rain Girl rolled her eyes. “No matter how weak your king is, it’s impossible that he can’t guess our true purpose, right?”
Rox:”…”
“Writing a letter to the south gate is a psychological test to see if he will set up an ambush at the South Gate…”. “…”. “The enemy wants to intercept us in the most appropriate way, and that is to set up a magic trap at the place we want to go. There are more than 70,000 mutated soldiers here, and their combat strength after mutation will be much higher than ordinary soldiers. If they want to stop us, the quality of the magic trap must be high, and this requires some preparation time.”
“That is to say… the enemy can only choose one place to ambush us, right?”Rox rubbed his chin as he looked at rainless melon. He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. Such an outstanding person, which faction did he come from?
“Which location to choose?”Rox looked at the map and asked.
Rainless melon’s expression became a little solemn.
Of the four locations, the north gate was directly abandoned. The north gate led directly to the impregnable pass: Griffin City. Once they went there, they would never be able to reach Molundo in the south, because the only way to the empire’s main road was through the imperial capital.
The clan currently stationed in Griffin City was the bailent clan. This clan was one of the Gu Si clan’s alliances that she had previously analyzed, and was an absolutely hostile force. Secondly, according to the information from the Liege.., this so-called map of the Black Goat was centered around the imperial capital and the Northern Beast race grassland. Even if they walked all the way to the end, they would never be able to walk out of the map of the Black Goat. Thirdly, adding on the fact that meeting up with the Liege was a completely different matter.., it was impossible for them to consider the scope of the map.
The south gate was the best choice, but it was also the most likely location to be ambushed. Even though she had deliberately set up a mental barrier and told the other party openly that she was going to the south gate, making the other party suspect her true purpose.., but if she wanted to use this psychological advantage to attack the south gate, the risk was still too high.
The safest choice was to choose between the West Gate and the East Gate. This way, there was at least a 50% or even lower chance of avoiding the ambush. The key was… …
What about after they got out?
It seemed impossible to walk through the mountains or cross the river. They could only rely on the lord to pick them up, but the key was that she could not contact the lord right now…
This was the most fatal thing…
How should she choose?
Rain Girl, WUGUA, was in a dilemma…
“Let’s go to the south gate…”just as rain girl, Wugua, was in a dilemma, Brother Dog suddenly said.
“Eh?”Rain girl was stunned. She looked at brother dog and said, “Do you really think that my little trick will work? The probability of the enemy setting up an ambush at the south gate is the highest.”
Brother dog said, “Even if there are no magic traps, the defense of the four gates is not easy to break through. A fierce battle is inevitable. However, if we go through the other two gates, we will still have to worry about how to return to the Empire’s main road. After the Battle of Life and death, the most annoying thing is that there will be a test later. We might as well go straight to the south gate and finish it in one wave. At most, it will be a little more difficult to fight the last battle. It is better than having to worry about it after the battle.”
“This…”rain girl, Wu Gua, was stunned. She did not know how to respond to such a manly explanation. On the other hand, Rox was stunned for a moment before he suddenly smiled and looked at him. “Sure, I think this explanation makes a lot of sense!”
“Right!”Brother Dog laughed and rubbed his head.
Rain Girl, Wu Gua rolled her eyes and frowned. “I don’t have much experience dealing with magic traps. Commander, do you have any experience?”
“Me neither… . “Rox Shrugged. “Because of the orcs, there has never been a civil war in the history of the Empire. . But . . “pausing for a moment, ROX smiled and said, “After cooperating with them so many times, I know something about their methods… ”
