  Chapter 656 Target, Motu City III

  The Motu Empire is located in the middle of the Shenmin Continent on the mainland as a whole, and its southern border is in contact with the Friedham Kingdom, the Xinghui Empire, and the former Navarran Kingdom in the north.

The east of the empire is the Bofeng Empire, the northwest is facing the Bibo Kingdom, the southwest is the Yanmian Empire, the northwest is bordered by the Yongyao Empire, and the northeast is the Anxi Empire, one of the only Qiyao that does not border the Motu Empire. It is the Shengge Empire in the northwest of the mainland.

  The imperial capital, Motu City, is located in the upstream area of ​​a tributary of the Tianshui River in the empire. Motu City is the second city in the mainland after Tianluo City, with a population of hundreds of thousands, but its city defense is one of the best in the mainland.

  There is no other reason. In the history of the mainland, Motu City encountered two large-scale cage battles. One was the warcraft coming from the north and the south, and the other was the orcs coming from the north and south. But both ended in the final victory of Motu City.

   It's not that the people led by Long Hui don't know the name of Motu City, it's just that they don't want to say it out in their hearts.

  Shuyin's caravan carried dwarven magical weapons, but it was useless for Motu City.

  There are magic weapons here, and there are also there, and...the magic weapons of the Motu Empire are not comparable to such a simple and improvised weapon led by Longhui.

  Of course Hans knew about these things. He looked at Lord Xiuyin who was still resting with his eyes closed, and sighed silently in his heart. The glory of their Longhui leader will only come tomorrow...

  …

Thirty kilometers south of the imperial capital, it is the Elegy Fortress known as the number one fortress in the empire. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the number one fortress in the mainland. It is the credit of the Elegy Fortress that Motu City was able to stand firm as a rock under the two cage city catastrophes , so this fortress has been called an elegy for nearly two decades.

  The chief garrison of the Elegy Fortress is the son-in-law of Emperor Rubik, the consort of the empire, the Marquis Marquis.

The 40-year-old Marquis Marquis can be said to be at the peak of his life. He is a powerful paladin himself. Among the warriors who use long spears, the Marquis Marquis is rare. This is mostly used in the entire continent. It is unique among knights with sword weapons.

  Elegy Fortress has a regular garrison of 10,000 people. As a purely military fortress, the fortress has sufficient military supplies. Even without external supplies, it can persist in the cage city battle for four months relying on the reserves in the fortress.

  More importantly, when wartime comes, the garrison teams of the towns around the Elegy Fortress, including the patrol teams of the entire Kinki region, can be stationed in the fortress to participate in strategic defense. The fortress can station nearly 20,000 troops in a short period of time...

   "It's so difficult!"

  Shu Yin didn't actually see the fortress, and everything was analyzed from the data, but judging from the strength on paper, it is almost impossible for their 20,000 troops to capture the Elegy Fortress alone...

  ordered Alice to close the map in her field of vision, and at the same time Huin asked Alice, "Alice, in the land of Ryze, is the a energy really underground?"

【Yes. 】

  Shu Yin was still thinking about the Land of Ryze at this time.

  The location of the land of Ryze is under the spire of Illidan City.

Xiu Yin didn't know if it was a coincidence or what, but Alice had a very strong reaction to the foundation of the spire. It was obviously not right to remove the spire from under Lord Illidan's eyes, or to say that it was necessary to tear down the spire above the ground. possible.

  A clue was interrupted, so Xiu Yin had to continue to implement the superficial plan, which was to recruit the mercenary group. As for his private desire to reveal the secrets of the land of Ryze, he could only talk about it later...

  Shu Yin said to Hans beside him, "Command the troops, slow down, how far is the team behind us from us?"

As a close guard, Hans is the center of the transmission system established by Xiu Yin. He has also put in a lot of effort in integrating information like Charlotte. As early as Xiu Yin seemed to have closed his eyes, Hans had already put the These things are sorted out.

"At our speed, the 3,000 troops behind will catch up with us in the evening. Lewandov is sending reinforcements here one after another, but it is impossible for a caravan of 20,000 people to cross the border and go deep into the Motu Empire. noticed in advance."

Hans' keen insight made Xiu Yin very satisfied, and after a brief thought, he said, "It's fine if 10,000 people can come, and the rest can be gathered in Gourd Valley one after another. Collect a lot of local specialties, and sell them at Hulukou when you have exercised!"

   "Let's convey it!"

  After getting the order, Hans jumped out of the carriage to deliver the order.

In the evening, as Hans said, the follow-up 3,000 teams have caught up. The two caravans pretended not to know each other, and continued to the direction of Motu City as planned. In order to prevent suspicion, the follow-up 3,000 teams surpassed Xiu Yin and the others. The convoy moves forward at a faster speed.

  When night fell, the two teams had separated for several kilometers, but they kept in touch all the time.

  Hundreds of carriages form three rings, the outermost ring is composed of more than 60 carriages, the inner ring is more than 30 carriages, and the innermost ring is more than 20 carriages.

  Shuyin's carriage is naturally protected in the middle ring.

  The bonfire was lit, this was the second night that Xiu Yin had slept in the open since he left the Bofeng Empire.

   "According to this speed, there are still four days left. Lord Lord, please forgive me. Even if we are close to the imperial capital, with our current supply and equipment, if we can't take the imperial capital in a week, we will not have enough food."

   Irwin seldom directly opposes Xiu Yin's strategy, but this time, Irwin is also quite nervous.

  The opponent is a powerful empire whose strength tends to be second to third in the Qiyao family. Although this time it entered the territory of the empire with the help of the Bofeng Empire and its border, it is difficult to imagine what the less than 10,000 warriors can do.

   "Uncle Irwin, this time, you lack self-confidence."

With the help of the bonfire, Xiu Yin looked around at the senior leaders of Longhui's army who were sitting around the bonfire. Everyone's faces were the same as the day before, and they were not happy. Of course, they couldn't see much worry, but in his heart, Xiu Yin knew , they are the same as Irwin, for the pursuit of glory, they can give up their lives, but...

  Everyone wants to win.

   Xiu Yin picked up a piece of dry wood, raised his hand and threw it into the campfire.

   Whoo!

  The bonfire became stronger, and it illuminated the faces of the people sitting around even brighter.

   "The dry firewood just now is just like our team. Although its strength is limited, it can still make the fire shine brighter than before!"

  Listening to Xiu Yin's words, everyone was thinking.

   "Until we actually meet the emperor's reinforcements, our victory or defeat is still unknown, and, you can think about it, when Emperor Rubik heard the news of the fire in the backyard, he was even more anxious than us!"
