The return journey along the road was very smooth. A group of troops marched forward, escorting the carriage full of property, without encountering any obstacles at all, and did not even encounter any armed teams.
Even those civilians, seeing so many troops passing by, threw down their sickles and pitchforks in panic and caught them without a fight.
As for the fortresses of some military symbols along the road, they are even more empty.
No one dared to stand in the way of Kant's return, especially after being warned by the nobles behind him, all of them were very well-behaved, and they all knew that the Dongjun leader, who had changed the world, could have accidents at any time.
If they are not well-behaved now, it is estimated that the nobles behind them will kill them.
Baron Kant is the last person to offend now!
It took nearly 5 days.
The troops were finally on the verge of reaching the Nord village of Wochesze at the mouth of the river.
The sky is approaching evening, and according to the daily marching speed, it is estimated that there are still about 6 hours to return to my village. If the cavalry alone returns first, it will take less than 2 hours to return.
These carriages full of belongings were still a serious drag on the speed of the march.
"Stop going."
Kant rode ahead.
Looking up at the setting sun, he still raised his hand and said: "Let's set up a temporary camp here, rest tonight, set off tomorrow morning, and try to return to the village at noon."
"Yes!" The orderly retreated immediately, conveying the order to everyone.
The troops stopped advancing.
It was approaching evening.
Continue to march, although you will be able to return to the village in the middle of the night.
But the troops who have traveled long distances all day really need a good rest.
As the order was issued, the troops moved quickly, and 50 carriages began to besiege a square in the city, leaving the carriages full of property on the outside and putting wooden boards on them, just like a human-high wall.
Then inside the carriage is the temporary breeding ground for the war horses.
The outermost is the living tent.
There is a reason for this.
As long as there is any situation, the soldiers sleeping in the tent outside can quickly withdraw into the carriage. It is very convenient whether they use the fortifications formed by the carriage to stay in place, or get on horses to break through.
And in the process of breaking out, throwing away those belongings can also distract the enemy, so that they won't fight too hard.
No amount of wealth is of any use.
Only by surviving can we win the final victory.
Even if it was close to his own village at the mouth of the river, Kant was unwilling to relax. Even if he knew that the nobles in the East County Territory were trembling with fright, he was still vigilant about it.
He can now carry an extremely large amount of property.
What's more.
There are salt mines in the Nalun Desert.
The number of people who want him to die is unknown, and the number of people who want to occupy his property, assets and territory is also unknown. Kant understands this very well, so he dare not relax his vigilance.
Riding his horse forward, Kant inspected the temporary camp that was gradually taking shape.
The tent was set up neatly.
The war horses were also received in the square position formed by the carriages.
However, there are still Rhodok snipers and Ravenston rangers, as security forces, standing on the carriage and watching the surrounding situation vigilantly, and on the outside of the carriage, at a distance of about 50 meters from the tent, there is also Rodo Sergeant Ke was standing guard, firmly controlling several points of the carriage position.
Just outside, the desert bandits, who were completely dispersed into teams of three, were also running back and forth, scouting the surrounding situation in batches, doing a good job in defense.
"That's nice."
Kant also nodded in approval as he made his inspection tour.
Although Bestur was a Kujit, he was the son of the tribal leader after all, otherwise the Khan would not have personally mediated his revenge, and he also dared to kill the enemy at the risk of offending the Khan.
Of course, this also led to him eventually escaping from the Kujit Khanate and living on the mainland.
Finally came here and became Kant's general.
The same brought with him his military experience.
For example, the current camp formation used to be the best formation for the Kujit people. They pulled carriages full of various supplies, and rode war horses to sweep across the Calradia continent like a gust of wind, and finally founded the Kujit Khanate.
The Kujit are good at plain field warfare and guerrilla warfare, and in fact they are also good at defensive warfare.
Because every one of them can bend a bow and shoot an arrow.
Defensively great!
Now, although this chariot formation is not composed of Kugits, relying on the rock-like Rhodoks, the Ravenstons who are good at rapid-fire, and the powerful heavy-riding Muruk is basically equal to safety.
Kant went around and found nothing missing.
Just got back to my tent.
Bestur walked in quickly, and Sushenghui reported: "Master Kant, the desert robbers who were sent out to investigate reported that there may be a situation in the south of us, and strange troops are gathering and ambushing."
"Report carefully." Kant squinted his eyes, which was beyond his expectation.
"yes."
Bestur nodded.
After thinking for a while, he quickly reported: "Just to the east, the desert bandits we sent out to investigate found about 3,000 troops ambushing in a forest, and there were farms around. The army is occupied, and if it is predicted according to the worse result, maybe that army can reach 5000+ people."
"Interesting." There was a playful smile on the corner of Kant's mouth: "I thought no one would dare to provoke me anymore."
"Yes."
Bestur nodded: "But we still don't know what the other party's intention is."
After a pause, he said in a solemn voice, "But since we have come so close to us, within half an hour's journey, it must not be a good thing. I guess they came with hostility."
"Obviously, it came with hostility." Kant snorted coldly.
"Then, give the order."
Bestur said in a deep voice: "The troops and I are ready. We can give up building the camp at any time and switch to a combat state to kill all those gangsters who don't know what to do!"
"It's okay, don't worry."
Kant shook his head.
After thinking for a while, he analyzed: "I don't have much to do with those nobles, maybe the guys from the Dark Red Sect want to break the boat, in order to restore their former rights, they want to take advantage of our proximity to the village and relax our vigilance. The surprise attack will defeat and kill our main force, and restore the decline of the Dark Red Sect in the East County."
"Maybe there is a possibility." Bestur nodded: "The Dark Red Sect must be deeply rooted in the East County Territory. Although I haven't really studied this world, it is similar to the politics of Calradia."
"But I can't tell."
Kant shrugged: "Those guys from the Dark Red Sect should have been scared out of their wits by being killed."
Touching his chin, he still ordered: "Continue to monitor, don't let them find out that we have found them, let the desert bandits be smart, and notify me when they gather."
"Yes." Bestur nodded, saluted, left the tent, and went down to make arrangements.
PS: I went to the clinic to get a drip, the flu is very bad recently...
