Chapter 176 Antolia’s
bull cavalry crossed the Chilun River three times.
From the perspective of Leon, who is a time traveler, riding a bull on the battlefield would be somewhat funny.
Throughout the history of the earth, it was difficult for Leon to find a precedent for riding a bull in combat.
Firstly, it is probably because the speed of oxen is difficult to compare with horses, and secondly, it is because oxen have a relatively stubborn temperament. This is why the so-called stubborn ox is named after it.
But this is not Earth!
The magical factors that permeate the air and the thick black mist that permeates the abandoned land make this world full of infinite possibilities.
Moreover, there has never been any deviation in the descriptions in the papyrus.
The so-called ignorance is ignorance. When encountering an unknown problem, scientific instruments will definitely stop working, but they will never mess around like some artificially retarded people, let alone write the word "solution" on the test paper in a pretentious manner. .
Therefore, Leon has deep expectations for the bull cavalry of Antolia.
The only question is...
in the abandoned land filled with black mist, are there really creatures like the Agreen Cow?
And this is precisely the reason why Leon was a little irritable before.
Yes, during the existence of the Agares Empire, the existence of the bull cavalry was once all-powerful, but as the black mist spread, even the intelligent humans had to find another place to live.
I am afraid that only the group of stubborn elves who own the World Tree can persist in the one-third of an acre of Moon Shadow Forest for thousands of years.
Just when Leon was silently praying that the Agre cow was still alive... a reckless figure knocked on the door of Leon's study.
"Is something wrong? Stan?"
Leon raised his head, and there was no emotion in his voice.
"Your Majesty the Marquis! There is news about the Antolian caravan!"
Stain replied with a heavy breath as he was jogging all the way to report.
"Oh?"
As time goes by, the situation in the Principality of Norton has become increasingly chaotic.
In that land located to the west of the Andal Kingdom, the Grand Duke of Norton, the nobles of the duchy, the Kingdom of Walras, the relics of the restored country... heroes from all walks of life participated in the grand ceremony in the Duchy of Norton, and the entire duchy was already in chaos.
Although Leon asked Stan to send people to search for traces of the Antolian caravan, in fact, he had no expectations for it.
But what he didn't expect was that Stan actually brought back news about the Antolia caravan!
"Where are they now?!"
"Uh..."
Stan seemed to hesitate for a moment, then scratched his head and replied with a little embarrassment: "I just passed through Parma City and will return to Antolia in about two days. "Yes."
Leon: "???"
"Then why are you reporting it now?"
"In fact... the mercenaries from Antolia just discovered traces of the caravan from Parma City."
Stan's His voice was slightly uneasy: "This is a letter handed over by the veteran leader. It's better for the Marquis to read it yourself..."
Leon opened the letter in his hand with a hint of doubt.
Then...
he was completely stunned.
The returning veterans wrote in brief words their experiences in the Principality of Norton during this period.
In short, just as they were about to arrive at Bolton, the capital of the Principality of Norton, the civil war in the Principality of Norton broke out.
Tens of thousands of noble private soldiers who came from all over the country gathered under Bolton City, and this caravan from Antolia naturally became a piece of fat in the eyes of the bandit soldiers.
Although the members of the caravan are all veterans who have retired from the Antolian mercenaries, after all, they are older and the number is not large. In addition, they are outsiders who are not familiar with the place. It is natural to run away immediately. It's the best policy.
It was precisely at this most difficult moment that Elm Randerson stood up.
As a veteran who had followed Leon's father in the Northern and Southern Wars, Elm's grasp of the situation on the battlefield was outstanding.
Under his leadership, the members of the Antolian caravan had to abandon the goods behind them. Pursued by bandits from all walks of life, they forcibly crossed the Chiron River that ran outside the city of Bolton, and then continued all the way. Evacuate north.
It was precisely at this time that the Walras Kingdom, which had been waiting for success, suddenly moved southward with its army, forcing the veterans of the Antolian caravan to cross the river again.
Now that he was back on the other side, Elm simply led a group of veterans to attack the camp of the noble private army of the Duke of Norton under the cover of night.
Although there were only less than a hundred people in their party, under the cover of night, they forcibly penetrated the entire transport camp guarded by more than 800 people, allowing the originally exhausted caravan to obtain sufficient supplies of food and grass. , and was able to continue heading towards the Andal Kingdom.
Then, the survivors of the restoration of the country who had been silent for many years in the northern continent suddenly raised their rebel flags and blocked the retreat of the Antolia caravan.
So...
it's a familiar plot again.
Elm led his army to the Chiron River again and made a large circle along the border of the Kingdom of Walras. Then, looking at the right opportunity, he broke through the blockade of the Kingdom of Walras from the northwest and returned to the territory of the Andal Kingdom. .
What's even more outrageous is that Elm even caught two rebel leaders who were following the survivors of the restoration of the country during the battle on the way back...
After reading a large section of the description in the letter, Leon couldn't help but fell silent. .
Talent!
Although in Leon's impression, the veteran named Elm is probably over fifty... But such judgment and execution...
In short, the description in the letter is finally satisfying. Leon, who suffered from a shortage of administrative officials, once again found a feeling that Antolia was rich in talents.
Letting such people go into business is simply a waste of talent!
Even though he was surrounded alone in the Principality of Norton, he was still able to return to Antolia after going through all kinds of hardships!
If this is not reused, who else can reuse it!
"This man's name is..."
"Elm!"
Stann quickly replied: "Because I broke my arm on the previous battlefield in Northern Xinjiang, I took the initiative to go to the caravan in Antolia to take orders." "
You arrange it. Soon, when they return, I will personally lead the soldiers to greet them outside the city!"
Since he is a talent, he will be moved to a useful place.
What's more, according to what was said in the letter, this person not only escaped unscathed from the chaos in the Principality of Norton, he even brought back two surviving survivors of the restoration of the country!
Leon was naturally full of curiosity about this underground organization that spread throughout the northern continent.
After all...if Leon's previous prediction was correct, a large amount of the money obtained from Antolia's infrastructure construction this time may come from this.
When he thought of this, Leon felt like there was a large amount of money waving towards him!
As for the current situation in the Principality of Norton...
As the situation in this neighboring country becomes more and more chaotic, Leon has already smelled a hint of war approaching during this short period of calm...
Considering that some readers have reported that the pace is too slow, this part Plot abbreviations that do not include the protagonist are skipped, and we strive to quickly transition to Antolia itself.
