Glory Riding and Cutting

Chapter 235: empty city

In the end, Leon spent a lot of energy and words to get rid of the three guys, and Barbossa also contributed a lot. After all, Leon was not good at wrangling with nobles.

"Now they should have been furious. It's really a pity that they can't stand in front of them and make a good mockery."

Ronan immediately patted his thigh and laughed after receiving the good news from Jackson.

"Then the next stage is the second stage, my lord, you, me, Meryses, and Matthias will each lead a troop, using the advantages of scouts and the convenience of our communication with each other to share the Leon side into us. In the trap!" Magna also smiled and responded to Ronan.

"Okay! Although I'm sorry for the people who are fortunate to work hard, but that's the only way to do it, Meryses, you take people to places such as villages that have not yet been affected, and the crops can be harvested. Harvest, and burn what cannot be harvested.

Then if the food is not enough, you will distribute some of the supplies to those residents, and they will go west. In short, you must not leave a grain of food for Leon and the others! "

Ronan turned around and said to Meryseth, who nodded and turned to gather the troops.

"For Fengming, let Bernhard prepare as well. It's a pity, but there's nothing you can do!"

A few days later, Leon, who had given up Fengming's tough bone, had already led his troops to sweep the whole circle, but he was unable to catch Ronan and his party, who were scattered into several parts to hide.

Most importantly, one of the main reasons for giving up attacking Fengming was because they were running out of supplies, and they had no time to waste here. They had to find some nearby towns and villages that did not have such defensive power as Fengming to plunder some food. Fortunately, there is no shortage of water in the south of Gaoling. If it is in the hot north, fresh water will also be a big problem to test them.

But Ronan did a great job. He would rather hurt the enemy by one thousand and lose eight hundred than make Leon feel better. Leon searched a large area, but it was as if a supernatural event had occurred, and Leon could not find it. A living person, let alone food.

The village was empty, and the traces had been removed for several days. Some of the precocious crops had been cut away, and the rest that had not matured for a while were all burned down, leaving only a piece of charred arable land.

Leon also came to a town in the westernmost part of Fernando Territory, but that town seemed to have become a dead city.

The gate of the town was just open, as if to welcome Leon's arrival, but there was no one inside. It was unusually silent. Leon rode a warhorse on the street, and the soldiers scattered to search the town.

The town is not particularly big, and the search was completed soon. Barbossa walked over to Leon, who was standing in the center of the town on horseback, shook his head and said:

"There is nothing here. They moved it very cleanly. Judging by the dust in the house, they should have moved out for a while.

Evacuate all the inhabitants, burn all the crops, and hide the troops from us, Rodrith is determined to bring us down. "

"And we are about to let him succeed! If there is no supply, it won't be long before we all starve to death!" Leon said bitterly.

"Since they have done so much, they will definitely not give up halfway, and we will definitely have the same result when we move forward. Although it can make them suffer more losses, we are afraid that we will all be lost here. It's forcing us back to the east." Barbosa said with a wry smile.

"I can't go! With the current situation, once we withdraw to the east, those fox-like nobles will not be willing to contribute any more, and may even turn their backs slowly, so it is very difficult for us to have a chance.

Those people will definitely not be able to walk fast with things! Send cavalry troops to pursue them! ' Leon continued.

"No, Your Highness, those people must be escorted by the army, and Rodrit's scouts must be near us. Once the cavalry attack alone, they will fall into the trap of the enemy, and they will definitely be intercepted or ambushed. Losing the cavalry, we will be even more passive against Roderick!" Barbossa dismissed Leon's strategy.

"Damn it! Then what do you say?" Leon has lost his mind.

"Our remaining supplies will definitely not be able to support us all the way to Starfall City, so we have to go back to Fengming and win Fengming with a desperate shot. Fengming has tens of thousands of resident population, and the city must be rich in materials, and with Rodrith Paying attention to Fengming, it is very likely that we will support again, and then we will not be stopped by the broken troops like the previous few times, and we must pursue and fight hard." Barbossa suggested countermeasures.

But what made them misguided was that Ronan and Bornhard were obviously prepared for this. After Leon and the others came back from a round-trip journey of less than ten days, Fengming was already empty.

"Damn it! Chase! Chase me! It's impossible for a large team of tens of thousands of people to leave no trace, and it definitely won't go far!" Feng Ming, who looked at the empty wall and wrote a few mocking messages to him with paint City, Leon was finally unable to control the rage.

After a day of rushing in pursuit, they got into trouble at a fork in the road.

"His Royal Highness, the enemy is divided into three groups going in different directions!" The scout soldier who delivered the letter knelt on one knee in front of Leon's horse and said ~www.wuxiahere.com~ Can you tell the number of people? ' Leon asked.

"His Royal Highness, I can't confirm the exact number of people, but looking at the traces, the number of people going southwest is the least, and the number going west is the largest!" The soldier responded truthfully.

"Okay! The one who chases the most, the others will send squad scouts to track them down!"

Two days later, when Leon's soldiers were exhausted and exhausted, Leon's army, chasing the steps of the people in Zhengxi, came to the entrance of a small valley.

"Do you have an impression of this place? Barbossa." Leon asked with a frown.

"It's a pity, Your Highness, I've never been here." Barbossa said helplessly with a spread of hands.

"It looks like a trap!" Leon's brows furrowed even tighter, obviously thinking about it.

"But this valley is too small, and the mountains on both sides are not high. They shouldn't be able to hide the right troops. Send someone to scout the mountains on both sides!" Barbossa also felt that there was a problem, but it was as he thought. Said, there are no conditions here to hide the troops.

After waiting here for another day, Leon received the news of the soldiers who were sent to investigate.

"His Royal Highness, there is nothing in the valley and on the top of the mountain, no trace of anyone, and no traps!"

"That's good! Let's start immediately, continue to chase, and see the traces, we will soon catch up with them." Leon put down the water bottle in his hand, wiped his mouth, and decided to set off immediately.
