The Origin of Arcane

Chapter 260 Mutual Calculation

Sanchakou.

As the name suggests, the intersection of three roads.

But this time it's not a road, but a river.

The river is naturally the Jacob River, and the river is the Bolton River led from the Carthus Army and poured into the Jacob River.

The flow of the Bolton River is not large, and it is in a dry season for three or four months a year. At that time, it becomes the backflow of the Jacob River.

Not to mention a big ship like the Inheritance, even an assault clipper is not suitable for this place. If you are not careful, you will easily run aground. However, when the current is the strongest, it is no problem to use a raft and raft to go down the river.

At this time, it was summer, when Carter's army had the most rain, and naturally it was also the time when the Bolton River had the largest flow.

After Kelman crossed over, he took this road. One person and one raft went down the river, which was far faster than riding a galloping horse on the grassland. It took only one day to get out of the mountain and re- Boarded the inheritor waiting here.

Master Chief of Staff, did the trip go well? Captain Donic asked.

It's going well, but Ake Messer is an old fox, so you can't believe it all. The success of the plan depends on General Dickron. A coldness flashed in Kellman's eyes, I hope he will keep his word Otherwise, it's really hard to say who is plotting whom.

No wonder he was faintly dissatisfied. According to the original plan, he would divert his route and go directly into the mountain to meet Di Kelong. However, not long after he came out of Ake Messer's handsome tent, he found that he was followed by a bunch of tails. Can adopt the second plan, go down the river, go back to the Inheritor first, communicate through the mountain eagle, and command remotely.

The deal between Kelman and Ake Messer seemed very happy, but it was actually full of intrigues.

Ake Messer obviously wanted to find Dick Long's hiding place through Kellman, and the intention is self-evident.

As long as Di Kelong's snake head can be cut off, the remaining remnants of the slave rebel army are nothing to worry about.

It can be seen from this that Ake Messer has his own little calculations from the beginning to the end. He believes in himself more than he believes in the leader of Yongye.

It's hard to say whether the opponent will open the gap as planned, or take this opportunity to lay a trap to wipe out the remnants of the slave rebel army. I hope it's not the latter.

Out of caution, Kellman still sent the detailed information and all the eagles to Di Kelong, letting him handle it as appropriate.

All of a sudden, the mountain eagles from the Andes Mountains shuttled back and forth over the Carter army. If you look down from the air, countless figures emerged from the originally uninhabited deep mountains and old forests, dragging their families with them. ,Crowded.

Among these people, the remnants of the slave rebel army who had flowed from the Manyu army at the beginning were a minority, and most of them were the aborigines of the Karth army leader itself.

The composition of these people is very mixed, including miner fugitives, bandits and bandits, and savages who have not been on the list from beginning to end.

The Carthus Army Command and the Andes Mountains are also dominated by mountains, but there are still huge differences between the two.

The Andes Mountains are mainly large-scale mountains. Although they are criss-crossed, they often stretch for hundreds of kilometers. The mountains are high and the valleys are deep. The mountains that stretch down, go in three directions.

Going northeast to the Kentana Icefield, the Kogel Grassland was bred by the melting snow of this section of the mountain range, and the northern fortress led by the Yongye Army was built on the largest gap here.

Going to the southeast, the Manyu Army is close to it, the Carth Army is bordered by it, and the Swamp of Despair is also under its shadow. The two great rivers, Jacob and Danube, originating from the Andes Mountains, are in this section Above all, it is divided into four, and now it has become the aorta of the Yongye Army leading outwards.

The last section rushes to the due west. Compared with the other two, its ups and downs are not so big, but its length is longer than the sum of the other two. It also has a more famous name, the broken mountain range.

It is precisely because of it that most of Arshan is cut into two, so that the Byron Alliance is at risk. Otherwise, the current core area of ​​the Byron Alliance, the Asia Minor Plain, will become a place for Odin orcs to graze horses.

Carter's leader is different. There is a small hill in the east and a small hill in the west. When you turn around, there are endless small mountains behind you. If you turn around again, it may become a small lake.

In addition, the production of mineral resources is no longer a matter of a day or two. It can be traced back to the age of the Elven Empire. After thousands of years of mining, many mountains have been hollowed out, and it is really ravines.

The intertwining of natural and man-made factors makes the geographical environment here rank first in Arshane. The Kingsley family, which has been operating here for more than 300 years, dare not say that they have fully mastered it. here.

Their military strength is only enough for them to control those large mines, some corners and dark corners, which is powerless.

And the strict ruling policy of the Kingsley family is destined to have many people trying to break away from it.

The remnants of the slave rebel army have been completely mingled with the local forces in the past few years. Di Kelong's temperament and ability won their respect. When he told them, he would lead them out of this hell on earth and go to a better life. Sometimes, there are a lot of responders.

In this day and age, the dividing line between good and bad people is very blurred. Many villages and towns are law-abiding citizens during the day, but may become robbers who rob houses at night.

In addition to the imperfect laws and weak legal awareness, it is also because of the pressure of life that sometimes only this method can survive, and it is difficult to judge them from a normal moral point of view.

After receiving the message from Kellman's mountain eagle, Di Kelong only glanced at it, then threw it into the bonfire, order by order, and sent out the message through the mountain eagle step by step.

Nearly ten years of military service has allowed him to develop a character that no longer depends on others, especially his own enemies.

Compared with the other party's swearing promise, he believes in the double swords in his hands and his brothers, and uses his own hands to fight for everything he needs.

This taciturn commander prefers to replace words with practical actions.

Ever since he secretly met Kellman, the messenger of the Eternal Night Army Commander, the lights in Akemesser's tent have been on all night for several days in a row, and he even sat in front of the military map for hours.

In some respects, Ake Messer and Di Kelong, two opponents who have never met before, have many similarities. Compared with promises, they prefer to control everything in their own hands.

Letting go of the gap and allowing the remnants of the slave rebel army to leave the Karth army is certainly a solution to the problem.

If he could take the opportunity to uproot the remnants of the slave uprising army and clear up the chaos in the territory, that would be the real end of future troubles.

As for the promise to the Yongye Army Commander?

From beginning to end, he didn't promise anything.

The problem now is, how to convince the other party that he has opened the encirclement?

Those little things that shuttle in the sky are really a headache, and my army has nowhere to hide in front of them.

The Carter army leader is not the Andes Mountains, and the remnants of the slave rebel army are not the soldiers and civilians of the Yongye army leader.

There is a mixed bag of good and bad people here, and scenes of betrayal and being betrayed are often staged. There is basically no information here that can be kept absolutely confidential. Even Di Kelong was almost besieged to death several times because of the traitor's betrayal.

It took less than a month for the leader of the Yongye army to support a group of mountain eagles from the remnants of the slave rebel army.

But even if he knew, Ake Messer was helpless.

These specially trained aerial elves, come and go, even champion knight-level archers can't do anything about them.

It may be a way to train similar aerial raptors to prey and kill them, but it will not happen overnight, and there is no suitable choice.

After all, the Andis mountain eagle itself is a predator, and its size is neither big nor small. If it is domesticated with a large raptor, it is difficult to have their speed. If it is too small, the speed will increase, and it may become food in their mouths.

No matter what calculations Ake Messer had, the Kingsley family's army focused on gathering eastward, consciously or unconsciously weakening the defensive force in the direction of Sanchakou to a certain extent.

Without this premise, the remnants of the slave rebel army led by Di Kelong would not have emerged from the deep mountains and old forests at all, and no matter how many calculations Ake Messer had, it would be useless.

There are rafts and rafts going down the Bolton River one after another.

It is a compliment to say that they are rafts and skins. Many of them are freshly felled trees. The better ones have pruning forks, tied with ropes, and bedding with animal skins. More often, several tree trunks are put together. Yaya is all there, holding it and going down the river.

Fortunately, it's summer now, even if you soak in the water at night, it's not too cold, otherwise it's unknown how many people died on the way.

Even so, as the number of people going down the river increases, more and more people will fall forever on the way.

This is the normal scene of long-distance travel in this world. It is not normal for the large-scale diversion of personnel like the Yongye Army Commander to have only a handful of deaths.

There is no way for the troops led by Carter and Yong Ye to set foot there, but as long as they reach Sanchakou, they can do what they can. In fact, they don’t need much. Thin blankets and a bowl of hot medicinal porridge can basically make them survive.

Sometimes, people's ability to survive is more tenacious than cockroaches.

For this job, Yong Ye's military leader is always very familiar with it.

Get on the boat, all line up to board the boat, take the family as the unit, try not to bring useless things with you, and when you get to the land, you will be distributed with the most basic living supplies to ensure that you have a full meal every day and a hot bed to sleep on. , I told you that you are not allowed to bring large luggage, what are you doing with such a pile of broken animal skins? Throw it away, throw it all away.

Master, where are we going?

You don't even know where you're going, how did you get here?

We saw everyone running out and thought there was a disaster, so we came down together.

Your life is really confusing, but since you've come down, it's a good thing. With your clothes, you must have a bad life here. I'll send you to Xanadu soon.

What is Paradise?

I don't understand Xanadu, but I've always heard of paradise on earth.

Could it be to go to the Holy Land, San Andy?

I don't know what St. Andy is like, but I know the place we sent you to. When you go, you won't be able to drive away. Hurry up, Ake Messer's army will rush over at any time, and it will be impossible to leave if you want to go. I can't go anymore.

After the executioner heard the news, he would definitely not let us go. Throw away these extraneous things. As long as people are alive, they can be created in a short time.

By the time those refugees fled to Sanchakou, the Yongye army leader had already set up a simple port here, and the Inheritance could not dock, but the assault warships and merchant ships had no problem.

After these refugees had a short rest, they were stuffed into the big-bellied merchant ships, and the ships went one by one without stopping at all.

As for whether there are any people with ulterior motives mixed in among these refugees, the Yongye military leader doesn't care at all, and when they get on the boat and arrive at the land, they can't let them go.

The unique geographical environment of the Andes Mountains is doomed. Even if they are excellent and capable spies, when they get here, they will fall into the oil tank. No matter how good they are, they will not be able to climb out.

This was just the beginning, and soon the Bolton River was overcrowded. Whether it was because of their relationship with the remnants of the slave rebel army, people who got the news in advance, or those who got the news by accident, began to flow out.

Not to mention the leader of the Yongye army, many people didn't even know who Di Kelong was, and followed them down in a daze, and boarded the boat in a daze.

People have a herd mentality, and most people have made this choice, so the chance of making a wrong choice is definitely small.

Of course, this is directly related to their unfavorable situation. If they can eat and drink enough, fools will run out.

The general has an order, these rioters and thugs, all of them will be killed without mercy, kill! Kill the enemy three times, get one gold, kill the enemy ten times, and get promoted by one level.

kill!

Kill! Kill!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Countless soldiers of the Kingsley family appeared out of thin air like ghosts, and with a kill order, they rushed towards the Bolton River.

The remnants of the slave rebel army who were migrating were unprepared. In just half a day, they were killed and blood flowed into a river. The entire Bolton River was dyed red and the river channel was blocked.

Ake Messer finally chose to shoot.

To be more precise, he was not prepared to let go of the remnants of the slave rebel army from the very beginning.

His hands are deceiving the world, and to put it bluntly, he is not very clever.

On the bright side, he was making the appearance of his main force moving eastward, but in the dark, he mobilized the best of them, and hid one after another in the surrounding abandoned mines, lurking day and night.

It was also difficult for Yong Ye's army leader to scout the mountain eagles to find them.

When the remnants of the slave rebel army were paralyzed and began to migrate on a large scale, they took the opportunity to fight out.

The remnants of the slave rebels made Axmesser miserable, purely because of their guerrilla tactics.

In a decisive battle, the Kingsley family army has never been afraid of them.

Just when Akemesser's ambush was launched, the remnants of the slave rebel army led by Di Kelong also gathered together one after another, and went straight to Akemesser's lair aggressively.

Just like Ake Messer was uneasy at the beginning, Di Kelong was on his guard from the beginning to the end.

It wasn't that there were no remnants of the slave rebel army who entered the Bolton River, but most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled. He gathered all the real soldiers who could fight.

Moreover, most of the remnants of the slave rebel army were in the first wave.

This wave looks dangerous, but it is actually the safest.

In order to paralyze them, lure them all out, and catch them all at once, he must give them a little bit of sweetness.

If you want to catch big fish, you must put heavy bait.
