A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 77

On the fifth day of leaving the royal city, the journey has been nearly half. Going further, it begins to approach the border of Aaron Landis, and the roads that follow are basically close to the border of Aaron Landis.

Although in the memory of previous lifetimes, Sheemur only mentioned about it, and did not clearly state the place and time of the death of the Tasda mission, but through the information Thar brought, Gallan vaguely judged the next Three or four days is probably the key point.

Because it can be seen from the map that the road will run through this Gobi desert next, and there will be no big cities in the middle. This area is a sparsely populated place.

If you want to do something, this section of the road is the most suitable place.

That evening, the group chose to camp by the lake.

The sky was already dark, and a little bit of starlight could be seen faintly. In the camp, the lights have also been lit.

In Garlan’s camp, the blond knight stood in front of a simple wooden table, touched his chin, and looked down at the map spread out on the table.

“You mean, in the next period of time through the Gobi desert, you are likely to be attacked?”

“Yes.”

Garlan, who was standing by, said, reaching out and tapping on the map.

“It’s only about four days to enter Tasda, and in another day, we will enter this piece of Gobi.”

The young man frowned, and swiped his fingertips down to the left and right sides.

“On both sides, there are two robber dens, the one on the right is closer.”

Robbers emerge from poor mountains and evil waters.

The environment in this area is really too bad, and the people can hardly be self-sufficient. Therefore, in order to survive, most of them have chosen to become robbers.

In this Gobi, there are many gangs of large and small robbers. These robbers are like weeds. They will be swept once, and after a while, they will appear again, and they cannot be eradicated. According to the information found by Tal, there are only two or three who are capable of attacking the mission.

“It’s weird.”

Kehos said, “Most of these robbers are seeking money, and they are also looting caravans. For them, it is harmful and unprofitable to attack the missions of other countries. They have no reason to do so.”

He pondered.

“Unless…something forces give them enough money to make them do this kind of thing.”

In fact, there are more or less similar groups of robbers in various countries, and these robbers, as long as they are given enough money, will be transformed into mercenaries.

“So, the forces behind it should be Aaron Landis’ enemy country?”

“Yes, because the relationship between Aaron Landis and Tasda is very stable, and the combination of Aaron Landis’s famous mainland cavalry and Tasda’s strongest heavy infantry is for our common enemy. It’s like a nightmare, so they will find ways to provoke the relationship between the two countries. For example, the story of our north…”

Regarding Garlan’s words, Kaihuos did not question him, let alone feel that Garlan was unfounded.

As long as Gallan said what he said, the knight would trust him unconditionally. The most important thing was that Kaihus would never question the source of the news.

What Gallan needed him to do, he just did it, never asking more questions.

It is precisely because of this that Gallan trusts him very much, and seldom hides anything from him. And this time, he was also summoned.

“I have asked Taer to send someone to secretly monitor the suspected robber groups. As soon as there is a movement, there will be news.”

Gallan said so.

Kaihus nodded, his eyes continued to slide on the map.

“If you judge according to time and distance…”

Kaihus hadn’t finished speaking, the curtain was lifted, and a billowing figure showed that a ball rolled in.

“Your Highness!”

Taer came in by a trot, and the flesh on his cheeks buckled with his running, and people couldn’t help but want to laugh when they looked at him.

After only a short trot, sweat was oozing out of his forehead.

“Just got the news, the Sivari bandit group dispatched a large number of people and they are moving in our direction—”

“Sivari Bandit?”

Gallan was a little surprised, “How could it be them?”

Kaihus glanced quickly across the map and landed in one place.

“The den of that bandit group is the furthest away from us among the suspected bandit groups…”

The blond knight touched his chin and muttered to himself.

“Every robber group has a fixed site, unless it is necessary, it will not easily cross the boundary.”

He came to a conclusion.

“It seems that there must be some force behind them agitating them.”

It seems that Opada’s death in previous lives was not an accident. If he hadn’t dreamed about it in his own dream, I am afraid he would not escape death this time.

Gallan pulled out the piece of information on the Sivari bandit group from a pile of parchment, and looked at it.

“The horse thieves are the main ones…In this case, the mobility is not bad. Excluding the time error in the transmission of information, they will be able to arrive in a day and a half at the latest. There are nearly a thousand in number, and they have a bow|crossbow…”

No wonder the strength of the Tasda soldiers was eventually wiped out.

There were more than one hundred people in the mission. No matter how strong the Tasda infantry was, it was not as tough as one to beat ten. Moreover, the infantry was inherently inadequate against the cavalry.

Gallan handed the piece of paper directly to Kaihuos.

“I don’t know much about military affairs, Kayjos, will there be any danger if the Sivari bandits attack us?”

In previous lives, including this one, he had never been on the battlefield at all, at most he had just listened to Sheemur explaining some classic battle cases.

However, it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t understand the military, just let someone who understands do it. Because of this, he called Kaihuos for a message.

Kaihus glanced at the strength of the bandit group, and the corner of his mouth raised.

“If the Tasda mission were on the road alone, it would be miserable. Wait for the robbers to rob them of their pants.”

“But that gang of robbers didn’t ask for money, did they?”

Tarr interjected.

“It is true. If there are forces behind to provoke the relationship between the two countries, they will not expose themselves and will not leave a living.”

Gallan said.

This was the case in the previous life, and the Tasda mission was so unreliable that they died miserably, which made the Tasda country furious.

“If you have the courage to do this kind of thing, you should be the most wicked people.”

Kaihus smiled.

“My prince, the cavalry of Aaron Landis is famous all over the world, and the guards of King Camos are among the elite.”

He said, an understatement.

“Don’t even think that there are only five hundred cavalry, but to deal with horse thieves such crooked melons, let alone a thousand, it will be no problem to double it.”

The knight of the scorching sun, who had walked out of the battlefield countless times, casually pressed the paper in his hand on the map.

“It’s very simple to defeat them.”

He said, with strong self-confidence, and the natural arrogance as the commander of the Aaron Landis cavalry.

“It’s more likely that there is no need to go to war at all. As long as those guys have self-knowledge and see the king’s guards here, I am afraid they will not even have the guts to attack us. Then, no matter how they run over, they will do nothing. Run back dingy.”

“Hey? Is that so?”

When Kayhus said so, Tal next to him became happy.

He also hadn’t been on the battlefield once, and he had heard that a war would be going to happen soon.

“That way we don’t have to fight a game, do we?”

However, Gallan did not show a happy look, but a thoughtful expression.

After a long time, he shook his head.

“No,” he said, “must let them attack us.”

“Otherwise, the force behind the ghost is unsuccessful this time, and it will definitely plan the next time.”

This time he was lucky, and he had memories of previous lives, but next time he would not have the ability to predict the prophet, it would be even more dangerous.

Gallan said: “We can’t passively wait for the poisonous snake squatting in the shadow to jump out and bite. We have to find a way to find the poisonous snake.”

When Gallan said this, Kaihus also pondered.

After a while, he spoke slowly.

“In that case…”

…………

……………………

At noon on the second day, just as the Tasda mission and hundreds of guards of Aaron Landis were preparing for lunch, a loud eagle sounded suddenly in the sky.

Some people looked up curiously, only to see a pitch-black eagle with huge black wings hovering in the endless sky, making a loud cry.

Then, the black eagle swooped toward the camp on the ground. In the nervous eyes of everyone, it suddenly closed its wings and landed on Heimos, who had raised his right arm.

Huimos took off a small copper tube tied to its left foot, opened it directly, took out the thin roll of paper inside, and looked at it.

At this sight, he frowned, and his face became a little cold.

He stretched out his hand to send the Black Hawk up to the sky, then turned around and walked quickly towards the rear guards.

Opada, who was next to him, looked suspiciously at the back of Huimos, who was leaving quickly. He had also disliked Huimos and interfered with him again. He didn’t expect that Huimos would voluntarily leave.

“What’s wrong?”

He asked Garlan a little curiously.

Gallan shook his head.

“do not know.”

Then, Gallan yelled at the black eagle who was following Hiemos hovering at low altitude.

“Annu!”

As soon as the black eagle, who was following Hoymos, heard the sound, he turned and flew towards Garlan.

Gallan raised his hand, the black eagle dropped its wings and landed on his forearm, staring at him with small sharp eyes, screamed briefly, and slapped its wings lightly. It could be seen that it was very happy now. .

The boy laughed and teased it a few times, and it also pecked Garlan’s finger lightly.

When Anu was a young bird, Heimos was sent as a gift from the north to the king’s city and gave it to Garlan.

He raised it for a period of time, and then he felt that this kind of bird of prey stayed with him in the peaceful city all day to eat and drink. It was too wasteful. He raised it into a fat duck, and its wild nature was degraded, so he sent someone back to it. Huimos.

Of course, it can’t be said to go back, just to Huimos, let him help himself to be more ferocious.

He still gave the name Anu.

He just tried to scream.

Now it seems that after so long, Anu still remembers him and treats him as close as before.

Opada next to him looked at such a vigorous eagle, and couldn’t help but stretched out his hand to touch it. But as soon as he stretched out his hand, Anu let out a sharp scream, his feathers exploded, and those sharp eyes stared at Opada fiercely, and he was about to peck fiercely.

Gallan hurriedly stretched out his hand to comfort it, and this made its erect feathers slow down.

Anu’s reaction was so big that Opada certainly didn’t want to touch it anymore.

He said: “Garlan, you are really good at tame these ferocious things…”

Whether it is a fierce lion or an eagle, he is always gentle in front of this young man.

“Probably because they were raised since childhood.”

“No, many birds of prey can’t be raised even from an early age. Like this eagle, even if it is a young bird, it is often unwilling to be raised even if it starves to death, so few people can successfully domesticate…”

As Opada was talking, she suddenly thought of someone.

“However, my elder brother has successfully domesticated an eagle before. He is one of the few successful people.”

“Your big brother?”

“Well, my elder brother is very powerful. I can’t fight him, and his brain is much better than mine…”

Opada said halfway, and suddenly stopped.

Because he suddenly saw Huimos coming out of the guards camp and passing in the direction of the Tasda mission. The pace was fast, and there seemed to be something very urgent.

“Huimos, is there anything wrong with him? Garland, I’ll go and see.”

When he finished speaking, he hurriedly chased Hiemos.

…………

“Prince Huimos, do you mean to leave with the guards?”

The head of the mission of Tassda looked at Huimos who had hurried to find him, and asked.

“Yes.” Huimos said, “I just received an urgent call from King Camos. There was a problem with the Northern Army and the Geishu battlefield. I must take the guards and rush to the reinforcements. So, I am very sorry. , I cannot go to your country, please forgive me.”

“Where, there is no way for this kind of accident, Prince Huimos, don’t care too much. Once the matter is resolved, we at Tasda will welcome you at any time. Then, when do you plan to leave?”

“The military situation is urgent. I will set off now.” Huimos said, turning his head to look at Opada. Good for his safety.”

The golden-red eyes stared at the brown-haired Tasdar without blinking.

“Please remember the oath you swore, as long as you are still alive, you can’t let anyone hurt Garlan a single hair.”

“Even if you don’t tell me, I will abide by the oath I made to the God of War Assur!”

Opada said flatly.

Soon, there was a problem in the northern battlefield, and the news that Prince Huimos led the guards to the north in an emergency spread throughout the mission.

The Guards didn’t even have time to cook lunch, so they gathered directly, bringing dry food and water to prepare to set off.

The five-hundred cavalry squad, standing solemnly under the fiery sunlight, and the Heimos who led them, riding his reddish-brown horse, stood at the forefront of the cavalry.

Garlan, who came to send it off, looked at the majestic army that was about to send out, and asked the guardian knight next to him.

“Kyjos, don’t you follow along?”

“No, it’s enough to have a’Black Knight’ in the Northland.”

The one-eyed knight smiled casually and replied, “I am your guardian knight, and staying by your side is what I should do.”

He thought to himself.

Let alone other things, at least, Prince Huimos would never agree to let him leave His Royal Highness Gallan.

Feeling a sharp gaze toward him, Garlan, who was talking to Kayhus, turned his head.

The golden-red eyes of the young man in black armor on horseback standing in front of the crowd stared at him, even if they were so far apart, Gallan could feel the deep gaze that looked at him.

He and Huimos looked at each other for a moment.

Suddenly, Huimos sent his arm forward, and the black eagle on his arm spread its wings and flew towards Garland.

It passed a long black shadow between Hiemos and Garlan, and then fell on Garlan’s shoulders.

Gallan touched Anu’s feathers, and then raised his head, Huimos had already turned his horse’s head and ran out.

In the dust, the hundreds of knights galloped away from the camp amidst the shaking of the earth.

The young man stared at the looming figure in the billowing dust, without moving for a while, the fluffy blond hair half covered his eyes, making it difficult to see the emotions in his eyes at the moment.

Not only was he silent, but the Black Hawk resting on his shoulder was also quiet.

“Gallan, you don’t have to worry too much.”

Opada came over and comforted him.

“Although I don’t like the guy Heymos that much… but he is really powerful, and the Geshu people are afraid of him. As long as he passes, there shouldn’t be any problems in the Northland.”

Perhaps it was his brainstorming comfort that worked, and Gallan turned his head to look at him, hummed, and smiled at him.

Seeing that Garlan was no longer so silent, Opada breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when Gallan turned his head, he glanced at the corner of his eye and suddenly caught a trace on the side of the boy’s neck.

The clear trace exploded the Tasdar’s mind.

Hickey?

Is that a hickey?

Is there a hickey on Garlan’s neck? !

He remembered that Garlan had put a plaster on his neck since a few days ago, saying that he was bitten by a bug.

Today, I probably forgot to post it all of a sudden, so he could see it.

How could it be bitten by a bug! At this glance, you know it is a hickey!

Who did it? !

Obviously there was nothing before that night! Why is it just after one night, suddenly–

Opada, full of anger, was stunned.

…………

……That evening……

…………The guy who was very close to Garlan appeared suddenly that night…

Could it be…

Could it be that between Garlan and his guardian knight–
