Sharon Linur, the commander of the Greedy Wolf Legion, stood on a high hill and looked at the plain in the distance in astonishment. A group of black dots slowly crawled towards the distance, his face full of disbelief.
After staring at the group of black dots crawling on the plain for a long time, he swallowed hard, turned his head and asked Aiwe João, the chief of staff of the army: "How about we... catch up?"
Chief of Staff Joao shook his head extremely resolutely: "No. Although the Zhenbei Army's formation does not look very good and their retreat is a bit loose, the overall combat strength remains intact. If we rush over rashly and attack head-on, , may not be able to take advantage. What's more... we can't be sure whether this is a trap set by them."
"Bullshit trap!" Li Nuer waved his arm vigorously. "That idiot prince has been led by our noses since the beginning of the war. His command is a piece of shit. How could he know how to deliberately set a trap? If he had this ability, how could we lead him so easily? Come here?"
"Then how do you explain his choice to retreat at this time?" Chief of Staff Joao pointed to a group of black spots on the plain in the distance that represented the northern army of the Kingdom of Lampali. "They only need to advance another two kilometers and they will fall right into our encirclement. But he just chose to retreat at this distance. It is not right for us to stay here, nor is it wrong to chase him out. In my opinion, this It’s so clever that it’s almost like he’s deliberately teasing us.”
"Do it!" Li Nuer cursed fiercely and reluctantly glanced at the Zhenbei Army that was slowly retreating in the distance, but in the end he still did not issue an order to pursue.
As Joao said, the Zhenbei Army suddenly chose to retreat at this delicate time and distance. He couldn't help but feel a little vigilant in his heart.
If this is because it took them more than a month for the Zhenbei Army to see through this. Traps laid through countless deliberate defeats. That proved that His Royal Highness Prince Eric, who was in charge of the command on the opposite side, was not as stupid as they thought, but was an active and shrewd battlefield commander.
If he really pursues them, he might run into the trap set by the opponent instead.
Thinking of this, Li Nuer couldn't help but cursed angrily again, feeling strong unwillingness in his heart.
The layout this time took more than a month, which resulted in a lot of losses and put endless pressure on him, the commander of the greedy wolf army who "always loses". However, now it is about to be completed. when. But how could he be willing to watch the fat that had reached his mouth slip away.
But as the commander of the legion, he knew that impulsiveness would definitely pay a heavy price. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only suppress the impulse in his heart.
After taking a vicious look at the Zhenbei Army in the distance, Li Nuer snorted and turned around with an angry face.
If he keeps looking at it, he might not be able to restrain himself from giving orders.
Seeing Li Nuer's reaction, Joao smiled bitterly and shook his head, feeling helpless in his heart.
He also looked at the Zhenbei Army in the distance. He also followed Li Nuer down the hill.
Just halfway, a fast horse suddenly galloped in the distance.
I heard the violent sound of horse hooves. Li Nu was immediately furious.
"Which bastard is this? Don't you know that I have already issued a silence order? Pull him down and chop him on the spot!"
Joao raised his eyebrows and glanced up, and quickly stopped the bodyguard of the commander of the Li Nuer Corps who was about to rush out.
"It seems to be the horse of the Military Intelligence Department. It should be the messenger of the Military Intelligence Department."
"Military Intelligence? There's no point in coming here now!" Li Nuer snorted heavily, but did not continue to order the guards to go up. Instead, he stopped and watched the fast horse approaching coldly.
After a while, the fast horse ran all the way up the hill and stopped in front of Li Nuer and Joao. A strong young soldier wearing the logo of the Military Intelligence Department jumped down from the top.
"Meet the Legion Commander! This is the latest information given to you by the Military Intelligence Department. Please take a look at it!"
Li Nuer snorted coldly, but did not extend his hand.
Joao smiled bitterly and shook his head, knowing that because of the failure of this ambush, Li Nuer was turning his anger on the Military Intelligence Department, so he naturally ignored the messenger.
He reached out to take the information from the messenger, opened it, and was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up.
"Li Nuer, look! Good news! Great news!"
"What good news is there now?" Li Nuer snorted, obviously not believing it. "What great news? Show me."
Li Nuer took the information from Joao's hand, glanced at it, and immediately froze.
After a moment, he suddenly turned around and ran towards the top of the hill.
Seeing the Zhenbei Army in the distance that was about to disappear on the horizon, Li Nuer stamped his feet heavily and sighed: "Damn it! This useless Prince Eric has not seen through our trap at all! We missed one good chance!"
João Shishiran followed from behind, but with a smile on his face, he patted Li Nuer on the shoulder and said with a smile: "If you miss it, you miss it. Anyway, we just need to wait to see a good show. Wouldn’t it be better if we could kill these guys without doing anything ourselves?”
"I still prefer to kill them myself." Li Nuer glared at João, then looked at the intelligence in his hand, looking at the Lampali Kingdom's Northern Army that had withdrawn on the far side of the horizon, and suddenly he Laughed loudly. "But you are right. Watching them bite dogs makes people happy. Haha..."
A dangerous smile appeared on Joao's face: "Of course, we can't just watch. When necessary, we still have to help them..."

The silver-white magic car made a shrill screeching sound and came to an emergency stop at the door of the City Lord's Mansion.
Xu Yi opened the car door and walked out. He looked up at the City Lord's Mansion, which was no longer the tallest building in Bangta City, and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Originally, according to the plan, he was supposed to appear in the Black Rice Wasteland with President Cruise and others to hold a launching ceremony for the escort team composed of the four chambers of commerce, and to help them enter the depths of the Black Rice Wasteland to clean up those blind orcs. Clan mobilization.
But just after meeting President Cruise at the Worrall Werewolf Tribe, he received shocking news. Dang even rushed back at top speed without stopping.
His eyes passed over a huge white rose hanging outside the city lord's palace. Xu Yi sighed deeply in his heart again.
"Your Majesty the King. You really don't know how to choose the right time."
Looking at the City Lord's Mansion, which was completely different from the usual hustle and bustle, and now extremely quiet, Xu Yi shook his head gently and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.
After entering the City Lord's Mansion, all the staff of the City Lord's Mansion that I met along the way had solemn expressions. Even when they saw Xu Yi, they did not greet him warmly as usual, but just nodded lightly and left in a hurry.
I felt the extremely serious and heavy atmosphere in the city lord's palace. Xu Yi frowned slightly and quickened his pace to the city lord's office.
Opening the door with a creak, Xu Yi saw Sevigny standing in front of the window, looking out the window.
The office of the City Lord's Mansion was very large, and the windows that covered the entire wall were also very large. The slender Sevigny stood in front of the window, and his back looked extremely thin.
Normally, Xu Yi would not feel this way, but at this moment, he could clearly read the deep sadness and loneliness in this back view.
Xu Yi sighed in his heart. Even he, who has always been quite nervous, can feel such emotions, which shows how Sevigny really feels now.
"I said it. Leave me alone for a while." When someone opened the door, Sevini did not turn around, but said softly.
Her tone sounded very calm, but it had lost its usual comfort, kindness and warmth.
Of course Xu Yi didn't go out as he was told, but instead took two steps forward.
Hearing the footsteps, Sevini turned around and frowned slightly, just in time to scold the person, but when she saw it was Xu Yi, she froze.
"why you?"
"Of course it's me." Xu Yi looked at Sevini carefully and found that her expression was also very calm, and there was no fluctuation in her eyes. At first glance, she was not much different from usual.
However, only people like Xu Yi who often get along with Sevini will know that no matter what the situation, Sevini always has a smile on her face, making people feel friendly when they see her, because she always gives people A sense of warmth.
But now Sevini has completely lost his smile, and his whole person is like a pool of stagnant water, calm but dead.
"Are you here to persuade me too?" Seeing that Xu Yi didn't speak, Sevini asked.
"What are you advising?" Xu Yi was stunned.
"Of course you are persuading me to compete with my eldest brother for the throne, otherwise?" A trace of bitterness flashed across Sevini's lips. "Xu Yi, you supported me so hard before, isn't it because I hope to ascend to the throne, so that you can provide the best help to your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and make the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce stronger?"
Xu Yi frowned deeply: "Maybe you are right, but Sevini, I must tell you seriously that for you now, these are all trivial matters and not important."
"Tiny thing? Not important?" Sevini glanced at Xu Yi in surprise, then shook his head: "No, you must be lying to me. How could this be a trivial matter? How could it not be important? This is related to countless people. The most important thing is that you will not be an exception."
"I don't know how many people have talked about this matter in front of you these days, but I came to you today not to talk to you about such insignificant things." Xu Yi shook his head slowly.
"Oh? Then why did you come to me?" A sarcastic smile appeared on Sevini's face. "Are you trying to tell me that since my eldest brother has officially ascended the throne, for the sake of the stability of the kingdom, you are here to persuade me to give up and support him together?"
"Someone said that to you?" Xu Yi was a little surprised and snorted: "Tell him, he is just farting!"
Sevini sighed and shook his head: "Okay, then Xu Yi, why did you come to me?"
Xu Yi stared at Sevini for a while, then asked seriously: "I just want to ask you, Sevini, are you... crying?" (To be continued...)
