Chapter 511 princess’ decision

Popular recommendation:

I saw Bai Lao nodded at Lei Xiao first, and then continued: “That is when the other party realizes that the double hole card has expired, and before he can react, His Excellency Ke Qing attacked the other party’s camp and burned it all down. The other party’s food and grass!”

Just as the old man was talking.

Ariel on the side has already placed the orange soldiers and orange pterosaur knights representing her side to the blue camp on the other side of the sand table.

Immediately afterwards, she stretched out her baton, and picked out a series of blue tents and a blue soldier model representing the Holy Night Army’s guard force, without hesitation, picked out the sand table.

Then, Ariel took brisk steps and brought back the orange soldier and the orange pterosaur knight.

During this process, Lei Xiao was a little bit ridiculous.

This girl actually trotted while holding two soldiers while jogging, like a child playing, and it seemed that she was still immersed in the joy of victory.

On the other side, Bai Lao’s old face also had an excited look, stroked his beard and smiled: “I think that old Red Devil would never have thought that we would steal his lair, I really want to see it. Look at the funny face of that old thing when he’s shaking with rage.”

After he finished speaking, he and a few Commanders Leng Yan next to him laughed together.

Seeing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

The great victory in the offensive and defensive battle of the fortress this time was indeed a great encouragement to these cold flame soldiers who had been suppressed by the Holy Night Army for a long time.

“I’m sorry, Your Excellency Keqing, I’m a little rude when I wait.”

After a while, I saw Bai Lao regain his energy, and then smiled awkwardly: “All in all, if your Excellency Ke Qing did not take action in this battle, I am afraid that my three fortresses have already been captured.”

Having said that, Bai Lao first nodded to the other Leng Yan commanders.

Immediately afterwards, there was a crisp sound of armor colliding.

Several people knelt down on one knee together, bowed deeply to Lei Xiao, and said in unison, “I am waiting for the tens of thousands of soldiers in the three fortresses, as well as the countless Lengyan people behind the fortresses, thank you for your great help!”

“General Bai is right. If it wasn’t for your help, I’m afraid this land would have been ruined.”

On the other side, Ariel also came over and gave Lei Xiao a standard breast-stroking salute, while Bert and Jubai, who were behind Ariel, also did the same.

“You don’t have to be too polite.”

I saw Lei Xiaodan smiled, and he first helped Bai Lao and others away in turn, and then responded: “The victory of this battle is the result of the concerted efforts of everyone present, I’m just a capable person who works hard and contributes. It’s just a little more, and it’s not worth mentioning.”

After he finished speaking, Lei Xiao changed his words and said to the old general in front of him, “General Bai, let’s continue with the last chase.”

“Understood, please read, Your Excellency.”

Casting a complex look of gratitude and reverence towards Lei Xiao, Bai Lao picked up the baton again and pointed to the large sand table next to him.

At this time, in front of the three fortresses, there were only four blue convex arrows representing the Holy Night Legion.

In addition, there are a few scattered blue soldiers, representing the vanished Eighth Legion and the remnants of the two long-range legions at the beginning.

“After the Holy Night Army retreated in embarrassment, according to our predetermined plan, the 8,000 light and heavy cavalry in our three fortresses, led by this strong man, began to pursue the Holy Night Army.”

While speaking, Bai Lao first glanced at the expressionless red night behind Lei Xiao.

He also instructed a commander Leng Yan next to him to place eight red cavalry in front of the three fortresses in turn, and continued: “Finally, after a morning of fierce fighting, I have been chasing down to the front camp of the Holy Night Army. , Only then did we withdraw our troops and return to the city.”

While speaking, Bai Lao pushed eight red cavalry models to the already crippled Holy Night Army camp, directly knocking down all the scattered blue soldiers.

And, it was pushed all the way to a canyon area on the sand table.

After speaking, Bai Lao put down the baton, and first ordered Commander Leng Yan next to him to put the sand table back into the current state after the war.

Afterwards, he summed up excitedly: “In this battle, the casualties of our Leng Yan soldiers are around 8,000, while the Holy Night Army has directly lost nearly five legions, and the core strength of Tier 3 and above is strong. Otherwise, it will lose more than half of it!

More importantly, according to the latest information, due to the burning of the main camp and food and grass, the remnants of the Holy Night have been fleeing back to their side of the border in embarrassment, and only then did they start camping again! ”

After speaking, Bai Lao and several other Leng Yan commanders once again showed an excited look on their faces.

“Unexpected things.”

Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

In this way, Leng Yan and Sheng Ye have undoubtedly returned to the previous state of confrontation and mutual restraint.

In other words, this time the goal has been perfectly achieved.

“However, even so, the overall strength of the opponent and the number of strong people are still far higher than ours.”

On the other side, while excited, Bai Lao shook his head helplessly and said: “Also, the other party will be able to get the replenishment of soldiers and food soon, and we judge from the current situation, it is far away. ”

Speaking of this, Elder Bai sighed softly again: “In these aspects, food and grass are better to talk about, don’t worry about it for the time being, but the number of core powerhouses above Tier 3 is extremely stretched.

Therefore, from a long-term perspective, our side is still at an absolute disadvantage. After all, Her Royal Highness the Princess and Her Excellency Keqing cannot always sit here, and the opponent will always find an opportunity. ”

After speaking, Bai Lao shook his head helplessly.

Among the current fortresses, he is the only fourth-order powerhouse who has been in charge for a long time.

Although he has stayed at the fourth-order peak level for a long time, due to the reason that the injury has not fully recovered, the deterrent force that he can cause to the opponent is undoubtedly extremely limited.

“If that’s the case, it’s true.”

I saw Ariel moved lightly, walked over and said, “The Holy Night is a country that likes to do some small tricks secretly, and assassination and stealth are very popular.

If the other party jumps over the wall in a hurry and only targets our middle and senior commanders, I am afraid that our side will fall into a very passive situation. ”

After Ariel finished speaking, she also shook her head helplessly.

At this stage, with the struggle for power in the capital at a stalemate, reinforcements may not be possible in a short period of time.

For a time, the atmosphere that was still high just now suddenly became sluggish.

“As for the matter of replenishing the strong fortresses, I have a way.”

At this moment, Lei Xiao’s voice rang in everyone’s ears.

Lei Xiao had already thought of this when he was in the guest room before.

And what Lei Xiao and his subordinates said, the last thing that needs to be done here is exactly this.

“Oh? I also invite Your Excellency Keqing to give me some advice.”

On the other side, Bai Lao’s old eyes lit up and asked quickly.

“Of course it’s hiring mercenaries.”

I saw Lei Xiaodan smiled and responded: “As long as there are strong third- and fourth-order mercenary powerhouses with superior strength, everything can be solved.”

“That’s right, since the other party can hire the powerhouse of the Dark Devourer Society, why can’t we do so?”

Hearing this, Ariel’s star eyes also lit up, and she said suddenly.

“To be honest, Your Highness Princess, Your Excellency Ke Qing, this old man has also thought about this.”

Shaking his head helplessly, Bai Lao continued: “However, it may not be easy to hire high-level mercenaries to participate in the war.”

“Why is this?”

Blinking her eyes inexplicably, Ariel wondered.

“Back to Her Royal Highness, as far as I know, mercenaries are seldom willing to take on such war missions, especially for some well-known high-level mercenary powerhouses.”

Nodding slightly towards Ariel, Bai Lao began to explain: “First, high-level mercenaries often need to perform cross-border missions, which will cause a lot of inconvenience in the opponent’s territory.

The second is that war is the land of Shura where you live and die. It is completely different from ordinary tasks such as escorting, defending, and hunting monsters, and the risk is too high.

The third reason is that there will undoubtedly be many constraints in the military camp, and the mercenaries are used to being free and loose, and it is difficult to adapt to such an environment.

All in all, from these three points, it is difficult to recruit suitable mercenary forces. ”

After a pause, an embarrassed look appeared on Bai Lao’s old face again, and he continued: “In addition, it is better to ask the third-tier mercenary powerhouse to talk about it, and the price of the fourth-tier mercenary powerhouse is a bit too expensive. , is simply unaffordable…”

Hearing this, Lei Xiao couldn’t help but smile helplessly.

Good guy, after going around for a long time, if I sum it up in one word, it will naturally be the word “money”.

And this is precisely what he lacks the most.

Looking at the embarrassed old face of Bai Lao, Lei Xiaodan smiled, and then said: “Regarding the question of money, General Bai does not need to worry, I will solve it with my dear fifth princess, therefore, the task of recruiting mercenaries will be handed over to me. Give it to me.”

“Yes, just leave it to the two of us!”

On the other side, Ariel also raised her chest, nodded and said, “I still have hundreds of thousands of golden dragons on my body! More than enough!”

“Ah this…”

Hearing the sound, Old Bai couldn’t help but glanced at the commanders of the Leng Yan Army, and then said a little embarrassedly again: “Your Highness Princess, I’m sorry to say that with hundreds of thousands of golden dragons, I’m afraid to invite a fourth-tier mercenary powerhouse. Not enough commissions…”

“What? That fourth-order mercenary powerhouse is made of gold?”

I saw Ariel’s star eyes wide open, a look of disbelief.

Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao pouted helplessly.

For her, a princess who used to live in the palace without food and clothing, and was surrounded by many strong guards when she went out, it was quite normal to not know these things.

“It doesn’t matter, I still have my guest!”

Immediately afterwards, Ariel stood beside Lei Xiao again, raised her pale cheeks and said, “My guest can say that it’s fine to leave it to him!”

“My dear, why does it feel like it has become an ATM… However, it is not a bad thing to be able to become an ATM for the queen of a country in the future.”

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao first glanced helplessly at Ariel beside him, then nodded to the old general and said, “Ariel is right, leave it to me.”

There is no doubt that there are two important reasons why Lei Xiao is willing to pay this money.

First, it is natural to further balance the combat power of Leng Yan and Holy Night, prolong the time of the stalemate between the two sides, and leave more opportunities for development.

The second is that since it is self-funded, the hired mercenary powerhouse will undoubtedly obey his own orders. This point will only have advantages and disadvantages for the future layout.

“All in all, each of the above two points is enough to get me out of this money. After all, money is just a number to me.”

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said to the old general: “Okay, it’s not too late, I have already made arrangements for the mercenary candidates, and we are ready to go.”

“That’s right, I’ll leave here.”

Ariel, who was on the side, nodded slightly, and followed suit.

“Then I will trouble Her Royal Highness Princess and Your Excellency Ke Qing. The old man is here waiting for good news.”

After Mr. Bai finished speaking~www.readmtl.com~, he bowed slightly and bowed to Lei Xiao and Ariel.

Next, under the guidance of Bai Lao.

Lei Xiao and Ariel first returned to the mountain fortress with their subordinates, and after meeting with Aling and Abing, they left from the back of the fortress.

Just as Lei Xiao waved goodbye to Bai Lao, who had been sent to the gate of the city, just as he was about to set off.

Ariel’s firm voice revealed a three-point nervousness, and then it rang in his ear: “From another world, I have already thought about what you said before…”

“Oh?”

Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said, “It’s not advisable to stay here for a long time. Let’s go back to Kongqing Town first.”

After he finished speaking, Lei Xiao, who was riding a knot of knotweed, walked away all the way under Ariel’s astonished gaze.

As for the white giant wolf that Bai Wei turned into, it was carrying Lin, Nan Xing and Nan Yue who had not fully recovered from their injuries.

In this way, along with the wind and lightning all the way.

After about half an hour, Lei Xiao and his party of eleven people, plus Ariel, Bert, and Ju Bai, soon returned to the spacious and bright discussion hall in Kongqing Town.

“Dear Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess, now you can speak your mind.”

Seated on the throne at the top of the hall, Lei Xiao raised his hand slightly.

“Understood.”

I saw Ariel, who was standing at the bottom, first took a deep breath.

Afterwards, Xingmu said firmly: “Although I don’t know if I can do it well, but, as you said on the city wall, I want to end this power struggle with my own hands and return to the king where my father is. All, and lead the Kingdom of Cold Flame to a new peak!”
