"Great Emperor, Great Emperor..." Just when Diao Si was still thinking deeply, Latin interrupted his thinking.
Diao Sica came back to his senses, glanced at Latin, and said to her: "Duke, we'd better send a special team to keep an eye on the retreat of the enemies. We must not take them lightly."
"I know, I'll do it right away." Latin responded, and paused for a moment as if she was worried, before turning around and giving an order to one of her generals.
In this way, Diao Si used his refraction magic to observe the retreating Glory Empire team. It was impossible for them to pretend to retreat, because the food was gone and they could not capture the Glory Kingdom immediately. It was impossible for them to take such a risk. of.
After thinking for a while, Diao Si continued to say to Latin: "Duke, their retreat is only temporary. Maybe they will come back tomorrow morning if they find some food. We must take some corresponding measures."
"Yes, I know. I am going to send a team immediately to bring all the people near the Imperial City back to the Imperial City for protection. In this way, if the Glorious Empire brings those sea beasts here again, those sea beasts will not be able to stay without food. Already…”
Latin still has some ideas. This idea was also inspired by Diao Si's previous attempt to lure those sea beasts to eat the Glorious Empire. Those ferocious sea beasts are always a double-edged sword. Using their own contradictions to deal with them is the most ideal way.
"By the way, the food we brought back before...Duke, have you checked it?" Only then did Diao Si remember the dark food, so he asked Latin.
After hearing this, Latin happily told Diao Si: "We have already studied it. It is indeed a very good food. It only needs to be dissolved into the water a little bit to produce a lot of pasty food. This is what we A very nice addition. ”
"A little bit can produce a lot of food?" Diao Si pondered again after hearing this. No wonder those people from the Glorious Empire could continuously besiege the imperial city here for such a long time. It turned out that they had special food.
Diao Si had never seen this black food before, and it was probably a species from the sea. In an ocean full of carnivorous sea beasts, if such plants survive without threats, they will certainly thrive.
It seems that the Glorious Empire relies not only on the powerful sea beasts of the Sea Kingdom, but also on these particularly filling foods. The Glorious Empire still needs to cooperate with them to get what they need.
This is not good news. From the analysis of this situation, the current Glorious Empire is much stronger than Diao Si imagined before. However, he only brought such a small number of troops. It is best not to confront the Glorious Empire head-on. .
"Okay, Your Majesty Duke, I actually came to the Empire of Light for another purpose. I want to ask you about Princess Rafite of the Guangnan Empire. Do you know what happened to her after I left?"
Diao Si hesitated for a moment, then brought up the matter with Latin directly. Now that Latina and he are partners and one of their own, and he only asked about Lafite's situation, it will not have any impact on Latina, so there should be no need to worry about it.
"Princess Lafite?" Latin hesitated for a moment before continuing: "You mean Emperor Lafite of the Guangnan Empire? Shortly after you left, Lalan of the Guangnan Empire committed suicide. When the imperial city was breached by us, , I heard that Lafite is their new emperor.”
What? This is a bit abnormal. After Lalan committed suicide, Lafite actually became the new emperor? How could those people let her become the emperor? What went wrong.
At this point, Latin thought for a moment, and then continued to say to Diao Si: "Then she was put in a cell by the people of the Glorious Empire, but I don't know what happened to her afterwards."
Hearing this, Diao Si's heart felt like it was suspended in the air by something. He really wanted to rush to Guangnan Empire immediately, so he said to Latin: "Then it seems that I must hurry up and leave. The situation of this imperial city will be left to me first." Duke, I hope you can support me when I leave."
"Emperor, please rest assured that our glorious federal state will not give in easily. We have survived the one-month siege. Are we still afraid that the glorious empire will come again?" Latin said with confidence, but there was also a look of uneasiness on his face.
Diao Si had already felt that she seemed to have something on her mind, so she asked again: "Duke, do you have something you want to say but are embarrassed to tell me?"
After hearing this, Latin quickly saluted again, paused for a moment before responding to Diao Si: "Great Emperor, it's like this. When you were resting before, my subordinates caught someone who was trying to get close to you and be detrimental to you... "
Hearing this, Diao Si already thought of something. It must be Lei Ji's sister again, and she wanted to attack him while he was resting. These sisters have never let go of this hatred. It seems that he can no longer let them go, because now his every move is attracting attention.
"Then Duke, what are you going to do with them now?" Diao Si continued to ask.
"Them?" Latin hesitated, and then told Diao Si: "We only caught one. Her name is Renee. We have already asked for some confessions, and she said..."
At this point, Latin didn't say any more. Diao Si could guess what Renee would say. She just wanted to kill Diao Si to avenge her mother. She was too stubborn. Moreover, Diao Si believed that Lei Ji must have acted with her, but her reconnaissance ability prevented her from being caught.
"Thank you Duke for taking care of me. That girl is too young, thinks too simply, and acts impulsively and recklessly. I'll just keep her locked up for now. I will take her back when I come back from the Guangnan Empire."
Diao Si said this and thought of Reggie again. It seemed that he had to bring Reggie to the Guangnan Empire, otherwise she would definitely cause a lot of trouble to Latin for Reni.
Next, Diao Si led his original elite warrior group, plus the recruits from the two major academies, and then marched towards the Guangnan Empire with a few pieces of dark food taken from the glorious empire's grain warehouse. .
This time he did not bring the hundreds of logistics troops with him, and the necessary items such as tents were also transported and managed by the people of the college. This can save a lot of food and make the march faster.
Especially with these dark foods, this greatly reduces food transportation problems. Diao Si calculated that just a few pieces of food would be enough for them to eat for several months.
Food is a big problem when marching and fighting, especially in a world with underdeveloped transportation, so if Diao Si returns to the imperial city of the Blazing Empire, he must let the dwarves study how to compress and carry food.
After walking for a while, they came to a town near the Imperial City of Guangyao Kingdom. The situation here was the same as in the previous town, but there were even fewer people alive.
Originally, Diao Si didn't want to disturb them, but thinking about the enemy strategy that Latin had told him before, he still found some people, and then told the people here through them that now that the glorious empire's troops had evacuated, Latin had opened up the imperial city, where they could seek refuge.
Regardless of whether they believed it or not, after Diao Si left this message behind, he continued to lead his people away. Now he didn't know how to think about how he would be able to rush to the Guangnan Empire soon. The more he thought about that, the more Diao Si worried about the situation of Lafite and Kawa.
Originally, Diao Si planned to rush to the location near Ruifeng City before dark, but after passing through those towns and lingering for a while, it was probably difficult to get there, so he only set a target for a larger group of villages near the border. , ready to spend the night there.
As he continued to move south, Diao Si noticed that there seemed to be more people here suddenly. It must have been because of the massacre of the residents of the Glorious Empire by the Glorious Empire that people near the imperial city fled in all directions. They all knew that there were mountains and rivers to the north that could not cross, so they all fled south here.
It was a good thing to meet so many people. Diao Si thought that most of the people here had been massacred before, but it turned out that they were just hiding, so that it would not be too difficult for him to recover the entire Empire of Light in the future.
But as he gradually approached the village group, Diao Si began to notice that there were some decent sentry posts and other military facilities there. It looked like there was an army hidden here. The people on those sentry posts seemed to be eyeing them. (To be continued)
