836. Chapter 823 What does it mean?


What does Chapter 823 mean?

Seeing that the situation was not good, the large force of the rat men withdrew simply, and Thoros did not pursue it too hard, fearing that the rat men on the opposite side would be forced to fight back desperately, which would not be good for them.

The most important thing is that if they chase far away, without the border fortress behind them, their advantage will be gone.

Therefore, Soros also retreated when he saw the opportunity. After seeing the opportunity and harvesting a wave of troops on the opposite side, he retreated his troops.

Even if they want to send out troops next, they will have to get ready before going.

It was already a week later when the trapped camp headed by Zhou Chongshan arrived.

No way, the time when the trapped camp set off coincided with the time when the waterway was discovered.

By the time the water route was determined, the trapped camp had already begun to climb over the mountains. Zhou Xu sent people to chase but could not catch up, so they failed to take this shortcut.

Fortunately, this matter is not urgent. At this time, the recruits he recruited before are still in training.

On the southern border, the official action will definitely be after his new recruits complete their training and arrive in the southern border.

To put it bluntly, to send the trapped camp there in advance is to add a layer of insurance to prevent it from accidentally overturning.

To even speak of it, once the new recruits here are trained, he may not necessarily send them to the southern border immediately.

Don’t forget, there is an uncontacted force in the south of their new continent.

In the previous winter, due to the influence of the season, the opponent would most likely not take action, but now that spring is coming, if the opponent wants to mobilize troops, then corresponding actions should be taken, so here we have to take some precautions. .

When the time comes, if this side launches troops in the spring, he will first destroy the forces here, and then go to exterminate the rats.

After all, judging from the scale, this should be much easier to deal with than the Rat Man.

As for the rat men, the lizard men are good at fighting them in protracted battles, no less than a short while.

I don’t know if I sensed Zhou Xu’s thoughts, but not long after spring started, news came from the border of Anling City, saying that the reconnaissance team from the opposite side began to appear frequently near their border. area.

After receiving the news, Zhou Xu looked calm and signaled Shi Lei to be more vigilant and pay attention to every move on the other side.

Zhou Xu still felt a little complicated about this strange force.

If a war breaks out, he will have to face a two-front battle situation. If this situation can be avoided, he will definitely try to avoid it.

After all, no one can guarantee whether they will accidentally overturn during such a saucy operation.

But if the other party never takes action, being a neighbor to him will always be a problem.

After all, when an unknown force is discovered, what does it mean when you send scouts to frequently appear on the other side's border?

Normally speaking, if you have no idea, you can either keep a distance from the other party and not contact the other party as Zhou Xu did before, or you can directly reveal your identity and try to communicate with the other party and visit each other. .

But the other party didn't choose. Instead, they sent scouts to continuously conduct reconnaissance on the border. Anyone with a discerning eye could see what their intentions were.

It is not difficult to see from this move that the guy on the opposite side is full of intentions to annex their great Zhou Dynasty.

In response to this situation, Zhou Xu had some thoughts in his mind, and then he wrote an order and ordered it to be delivered to Anling City Guard General Shi Lei as quickly as possible.

Shi Lei received the order, opened it and took a look, and immediately knew something about it.

“Pass my order and send out a small team to deal with the reconnaissance team on the opposite side. If there is a conflict, it will show that the enemy is weak.”

The order has been issued. Although the soldiers who received the order did not know why they did so, according to the way they trained soldiers in the Great Zhou Dynasty, obeying orders is the bounden duty of soldiers. They do not need to question it, they only need to execute it.

According to the frequency of action of the reconnaissance team on the opposite side, the two teams met quickly, and then a conflict occurred without any surprise. According to Shi Lei's arrangement, the soldiers on their side also followed the order, showed their weakness to the enemy, and took the initiative to retreat.

If the other party is aggressive, they will immediately call in the border patrol troops to force them back, but they will not pursue them too far. Basically, they will stop as soon as they cross the border. Chasing, looking like a coward.

For a while, the reconnaissance team on the opposite side was really running amok near their border with Dazhou. At the same time, a report on the situation here was also written and sent back as quickly as possible.

In the palace in the capital of Liang Kingdom, the current Emperor Liang looked at the latest military report sent back from the border, and his face suddenly lit up with joy.

"Hahahaha, Commander Kabak really did not lie to me. China has been fighting for years, and now its national power is empty. It is just a paper tiger that is strong on the outside and weak on the inside."

"I will inherit it now. It is the legacy of the ancestors of the Liang Kingdom to take over the Central Plains at this time!"

As he spoke, Emperor Liang quickly gave the order.

“Quickly, call Captain Kabak to come see me.”

The order was given, and a tall and burly figure quickly entered the palace.

"Kabak, I have met Emperor Liang."

After entering the palace, Kabak faced Emperor Liang and bowed slightly, which was regarded as a salute.

From his every move, it is really hard to tell how much respect he has for Emperor Liang.

Seeing this, Emperor Liang's eyes quickly flashed with displeasure, but he quickly restrained himself.

After all, this Kabak is indeed not his subordinate, but a Centaur mercenary whom he paid for.

They are restricted by conditions and cannot produce any good war horses, so cavalry is also very scarce.

Under this premise, even centaur mercenaries, who are extremely powerful as cavalry, can easily become a key factor affecting the outcome of a war.

In the previous war, they were inseparable from their neighboring countries. It was these centaur mercenaries who played a key role in helping Liang's army defeat the enemy and complete the unification.

The war on their side actually ended before winter, when the centaur mercenaries headed by Kabak wanted to settle their accounts and leave.

In response to this, Liang Huang quickly paid off the commission and also started to recruit.

Imagine, on this land, if he could hold the power of the centaur in his hands, who else could be his opponent?

But the result was obviously not smooth.

In Kabak's view, although the centaur mercenaries were hired by others and made money by helping their employers fight in wars, they had no intention of joining anyone's command or being slaves to anyone.

Seeing those ministers kneeling down and flattering Liang Huangsan, Kabak felt quite disdainful, so he refused directly and wanted to take the money and leave.

But Emperor Liang obviously hasn't given up yet, and he is very good at finding time.

After settling the accounts at that time, the season was about to enter winter. Although they were free as mercenaries, they did not have a force to rely on. In this season, they had nowhere to go, and there was no one nearby for the time being. Finding other businesses will be more difficult in itself.

After recognizing this, Emperor Liang directly invited them to spend the winter in Liang State.

Kabak weighed it in his mind and stayed, until now...
