Lord Chronicle

Chapter 244 Infiltrating the Prisoner Camp

After returning to the hideout, Darth and Volsa heard what Thor said about this incident, and both of them were happy that the soldiers of the Northern Legion were still alive.

"So, are we officially joining forces with those guys?" Walsa asked.

Gein nodded: "It can be said that, but now they can't protect themselves, and we have a lot of troubles, so it's really hard to say what the result will be."

Dass said: "I think we should focus on the original plan and help with the Sidvila Fortress if we can, but we shouldn't put all our energy on it. After all, those thousands of Lulin troops are against them. It’s tricky to say, and it’s the same for us.”

The guarding army is indeed troublesome, and there is an unidentified army outside the city. With the current strength of everyone, there is absolutely no chance of winning.

Gein was about to speak when Thor suddenly said, "Have you ever thought about what will happen to the soldiers locked in the fortress if our plan succeeds?"

Das frowned and said, "What else, of course..."

Suddenly, his complexion changed: "Oops!"

Before the words fell, Gein and Walsa also showed the same reaction, apparently thinking of the same thing.

Sol gave a wry smile, covered his forehead and said, "Yes, at first I also treated this incident as an accident, thinking it was just a matter of luck. But on the way back, the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was wrong. It started and it's already had a huge impact on our plans."

Das thought about it, and then slowly let out a breath: "Yes, we really thought too simply. Damn, this 'accident' is really surprising."

At this time, all four of them thought that the 10,000+ captives in Sidvila Fortress had become a huge constraint on their plans.

To put it simply, what would happen to the soldiers of the Northern Army who were imprisoned in the fortress if Sol and the others successfully occupied Ferry City and cut off the connection between the Lulin Army and the motherland.

The most likely thing is that in the case of doomed failure, the Lulin Army may no longer have any scruples and will massacre these 10,000+ people.

They will never leave these 10,000+ elite soldiers for Dinar.Because when the army that invaded Dinar was annihilated and the domestic military power was empty, releasing these 10,000+ soldiers to Dinar was tantamount to leaving a sharp sword of revenge for Dinar.

At that time, Dinar can rearm the 10,000+ soldiers as much as possible, and in turn invade Lulin.Due to the previous hatred, this army will not show any kindness to Lulin, and the Lulin Empire will suffer a more severe blow than Dinar.

In other words, unless Thor and the others don't care about the lives of these 10,000+ people, they must not activate the teleportation array until their safety can be guaranteed.

"Damn it, if I had known this, I wouldn't have wandered outside even if I ejaculated and died that night." After a while, Walsa clutched his head with a headache.

"I thought that this time, when the enemy was unprepared, I would secretly build a teleportation array, transport the troops here with a whoosh, and then everything would be fine, just wait for the king's reward. Who would have thought that such a troublesome thing would happen, hero Not good."

Knowing that what he said was just angry words, but the situation is imminent, and there is still a way to think about it.Thor said: "It's useless to complain, let's think of a way to do it."

Das sighed: "The most convenient thing is for everyone to pat their butts and go back to Lovell immediately. After that, how to fight the war, no matter the victory or defeat, at least the lives of these 10,000+ people can be saved."

This is indeed the safest solution, but... can they be willing?
Sure enough, the four looked at me and I looked at you, shaking their heads.

"Come on, is this still called a man?"

"I'm still counting on a big success this time."

"This method is too useless, think of something else."

……

After sending out harsh words one after another, the few people had no choice but to think of another way.

However, after discussing and discussing, the four found sadly that there was no way to guarantee their safety except to rescue these soldiers.In other words, they had to face the thousands of Lulin troops.

no, maybe more...

"It seems that we can only put aside the matter of the teleportation array and try our best to rescue those prisoners." Finally, Gein said helplessly.

Das and Volsa agree.Sol said, "Can't two things be done at the same time?"

"Do it at the same time?" Das frowned, "But we only have such a small number of people, and we are afraid that we will lose both ends."

"But have you ever thought about it, even if we rescued those soldiers and even recaptured Sidvila Fortress, what would so many people eat?" Sol reminded.

Darth woke up immediately.Sidvila's garrison has always relied on Bahrain to supply food. It was because of Cliff's rebellion that their food and grass were cut off, and the fortress was breached.

Even if they can regain the fortress this time, if they don't have enough food, they won't last long.

"Anyway, there are more than [-] people, and then we can take them back to Ferry City." Walsa suggested.

Gein shook his head and said: "It's not that simple. The rebellion of the captives in the fortress is bound to arouse the vigilance of the Lulin army. At that time, they only need to stick to the city of Feili. With the strength of the city, 10,000+ people will survive without food. , don’t try to break it at all.”

Das also said: "Besides, Sidvila Fortress faces Lulin. If there is no food, it will not be able to defend it, and it will not be able to attack Ferry City. The enemy only needs to recapture the fortress and echo the troops of Ferry City. What will happen then?" There is no need to do it, it will starve us to death.”

Thor suddenly thought of an idea: "How about contacting the rebels in the city, and then cooperating with each other like Diviji Castle?"

Gein still shook his head: "It's difficult. After all, these rebels are a minority. With the Lulin Army on guard, it's hard to do anything. It's impossible for the same good thing to happen again."

Walsa was stunned: "Then what should I do? Is it really the only way to go back to Lovell?"

After all, he is a general, and Gein snorted: "So, as Saul said, two things should be done at the same time. While rescuing the captives, then occupy Ferry City."

"Then securely guard the road between the two places, send food to the fortress continuously, and completely prevent the counterattack in Lulin's country. Then clear the Bahraini territory and establish a solid line of defense, and the Lulin people will never be able to fight back." It's stormy."

What Gein said is indeed the only feasible way at present.But this requires perfect cooperation between the two sides when they act, and they must find a way to deal with the defenders of Ferry City and the fortress.

It is difficult to accomplish only one of these two things, let alone simultaneously.Thinking of the difficulty inside for a while, several people felt that it was tricky.

Seeing that everyone was a little depressed, Sol cheered up: "There is nothing to worry about. Anyway, we are here this time to do something against the sky, and now there is no difference between the reverse and the reverse. I don't believe it. With our four heroes If we work together, we still can't deal with a few thousand Lulin troops."

Gein also cheered up and said, "That's right, sneaking here to build a teleportation array, I just don't think it's too difficult, now we finally have a chance to show our talents."

Although people with discerning eyes know that these two are talking nonsense, but as the saying goes, losing is not losing. The two of them said that, the more challenges there are, the more they can show the pride of our talents.

For a while, the atmosphere gradually became active again.

After discussing for a while, Thor finally said: "That's it. It's tentatively decided that Gein and I will contact Serang and plan to save people. Das and Walsa are ready to set up a teleportation array at any time. When the time is right, Just get the fuck's vote."

The other three echoed loudly, thus reaching a consensus.

After going out, Sol told the defenders about the Sidvila Fortress again.

When they heard that this time they were going to rescue the captured soldiers of the Western Legion, the morale of the somewhat gloomy garrison members in the past two days immediately rose, and everyone was gearing up for a big fight.

In this way, the surprise attack that was originally a simple establishment of a teleportation array to occupy Ferry City gradually began to develop in an unpredictable direction.

***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** *************
It was already the next day when Felino learned that his secret agent had been killed and the headquarters of the rebel organization had been burned down.

After hearing the news, the city guards who rushed to put out the fire found out the clues and didn't dare to delay, so they rushed to Felino's house and reported the matter to him.

"What are you talking about, those people have all run away?" Felino asked in surprise after hearing the report from the city defense officer.

At this moment, he was wearing a turban on his head, an apron full of flowers around his waist, and big barbecue gloves on his hands. He was walking into the house with a large tray of barbecue meat, and he looked like a housewife.

I didn't understand why the immediate superior was dressed like this, and the officer didn't dare to look too much, he just lowered his head and said, "Yes, when we rushed there, the house was almost burned to the ground. In addition, we also found a person in charge of surveillance nearby. The bodies of two of their spies."

Felino frowned, and handed the tray to the servant beside him: "Give it to her, and buy another 100 baked pies, which must be delivered before she finishes eating the barbecue, understand?"

The servant nodded, took the tray and quickly went down.

Only then did Felino wipe the grease from his hands with his apron, and then he walked to the side and sat down: "Tell me slowly, has anyone caught that organization?"

The officer was muttering to himself, how many guests had come to Lord Felino's house, and he was shocked to hear that he wanted to eat so much.

He hurriedly said, "No, we only found one body in the burnt house, it is probably the missing No.3 spy."

Felino was very surprised: "It seems that I really underestimated those ordinary people. Not only can I discover my spies, but I can also kill them quietly."

The officer said: "Perhaps it was only the spies who accidentally exposed their whereabouts, which caused the murder. Anyway, judging from past performance, this so-called rebel army is nothing more than a group of mobs."

Felino didn't expect that Sol was helping those people. He nodded when he heard the words: "That's right, immediately send someone to search secretly, and we must find those guys. Remember, this time, send someone who is more capable, don't Then die inexplicably."

The officer nodded and said: "Please rest assured, I will send the most shrewd spies in the city defense army, those guys will never run away again."

After a few more exhortations, Felino sent him away.

"Strange, how did those people suddenly become so smart..."

Based on the habit of thinking, Felino couldn't help pondering.

At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise from the other side of the room, followed by someone screaming: "Quick, stop her, that is the most precious goldfish of Lord Felino, hasn't the stuffed pie arrived yet? "

"What a troublesome girl." Felino shook his head with a wry smile, and strode over there.

No matter how clever he is, he would never expect that the opponent this time has been replaced by his old enemy.So Felino quickly forgot about it.

***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** *******************
"You said you were going to Fort Sidvila?" Das looked at Sol in astonishment.

Thor nodded and said, "Yes, since we decided to rescue those soldiers, we should at least understand the situation."

"Why not give it to those thieves?" Gein was also surprised.

Saul spread his hands: "Garrett will definitely not touch anything related to the military. Besides, it's better not to let them know about this kind of thing."

"My lord, this is too dangerous, please stay here and leave the investigation to me." Chip said at this time.

Sol shook his head: "No, it's better for me to see it with my own eyes. Besides, I just observe it from a distance. Don't forget that I have Simba. Even if something happens, I can escape quickly."

"Then please let me go with you." Chip said again.

Sol said: "Of course." He still doesn't have the courage to be a lone ranger.

Seeing that Sol had made up his mind, Gein said, "Then when are you leaving?"

Sol thought for a while and said, "Just tonight. Let the thieves take us out of the city, and take Simba to fly to the fortress soon. If everything goes well, we can come back tomorrow night."

"Okay, then you must be careful, and leave the affairs of the city to us." Das finally agreed.

That night, Sol successfully found Garrett, and with the assistance of the Thieves Guild, he and Chip secretly left Ferry City.

The two walked for a while, and when they reached an uninhabited woods outside the city, Sol called out Simba.

Thor still couldn't control the griffin without the help of the elixir and the pretty girl.But he still has a trump card, and that is Xiaomei.

After summoning the Snake Demon, the Griffin, which was about to move, calmed down immediately.With the help of Xiaomei, Simba took Sol and Kip into the sky and flew towards Sidvila Fortress in the dark.

Although carrying a monster and two adults, Simba is worthy of being a purebred Edric High Rock Griffin, and he still flies very smoothly, but the speed is a bit slow.

For military reasons, the fortress is not very far from Ferry City. It takes about 2 days to ride a horse, but the flight is not hindered by the terrain, so it takes three hours to arrive.

Looking at the huge black shadow towering above the plain in front of him, Sol secretly thought that it was the famous Western Throat Fortress of Dinard, Sidvila.

He patted the Griffon's neck, and Simba let out a knowing cry, and began to fly downward.

Despite the cover of night, Sol still didn't dare to get too close, so he landed on a hillside outside the fortress.After taking Simba and Mei back, there are only him and Chip left.

Standing on the top of the hill, the fortress is even bigger due to its proximity.There are many large and small buildings near it, and Sol knows that they are the fortifications outside the fortress.

At this moment, there are dots of flames flickering in these fortifications, which look like candles guarding the huge black shadow of the fortress.Even at night, the Lulin people did not let down their vigilance.

Looking at the surprisingly large building complex in front of him, Sol couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.When I really got here, I realized that there was a feeling of being unable to start.

"My lord, look." Suddenly, Chip pointed to the position on the left side of the hillside.

Sol turned his head and looked in the direction of his finger, and saw that the building in that direction was not like the fortifications in other places, tall and short for defense, but flat and neat, like a neat piece of tofu under the night.

In addition, the lights over there are denser than other places, and it seems that there are many defenders.

But Sol didn't see any big clues: "What happened there?"

Chip said: "That place is not the original fortification of the fortress, it should have just been built."

"Oh..." Sol nodded, and suddenly he thought of something: "How do you know that it's newly built, not the original fortification?"

"When I was still in the army, I sneaked in here a few times before, so I roughly understand it." Chip recounted the past in a calm tone.

Then, he said lightly: "Please come with me."

Saul didn't ask any more questions, turned around and followed Chip down the hillside.

Sidvila Fortress is located on a plain, so it mainly relies on auxiliary fortifications to expand its defense range. In addition, there are no high grounds around it, so it is difficult to observe it from above.

Under the leadership of Chip, the two entered the plain area, and after carefully avoiding several Lulin patrol troops, they approached the strange building.

At this moment, the two were hiding behind a dense bush, and the edge of the building was tens of meters ahead.With the help of the faint light, one could see that it was just a fence surrounded by thick wooden piles. It seemed that the Lulin people did not intend to use this place as a permanent fortification.

"You wait here, and leave the rest to me." Chip left these words, and then disappeared into the dark night.

Knowing that this kind of place couldn't stop him at all, Sol waited with peace of mind.In fact, he wanted to find a high place for a comprehensive observation, but there is no suitable place nearby. It seems that he can only ride Simba in the morning tomorrow and try it in the sky.

Just when Sol was thinking wildly, there was a sudden sound of footsteps from far to near, and at the same time a fire gradually illuminated this side.

Knowing that this was a Lulin patrol, Sol quickly lowered his head.Not long after, a team of the Lulin Army walked slowly along the fence with torches in hand.

When he came to Saul, a Lu Linjun inside suddenly yawned: "I'm really exhausted, and I have to go out to patrol in the middle of the night."

This team was advancing silently, but as soon as this person started talking, other people also complained.

"Yeah, the other troops are fighting on the front line, and we are the only ones staying here."

"I have nothing to do all day long, and I'm not even allowed to go to Ferry City. It's almost suffocating me to death."

"It's all these damned captives, and we need to be their babysitters."

……

Hearing the word "captive" mentioned by the other party, Sol's heart moved, and he thought to himself, is the prisoner locked nearby?
At this time, the leading captain gave a low voice and stopped everyone's complaints: "Stop talking nonsense, this is an order from above, and we will follow it."

"Captain, why don't you kill all these captives? Locking them up here will cost us a lot of food every day." After a while, a soldier couldn't help but said again.

As he spoke, he reached out and knocked on the row of wooden fences.

Sol, who was hiding in the bushes, felt his heart beating fast, and the captive was actually inside.

The captain snorted: "Kill? What do you think this is, this is 10,000+ human lives. We are soldiers, not butchers."

As he said that, he said again: "When Dinar is occupied, these people are the best slaves. How can the superiors be willing to kill them? Well, this is not something that us little soldiers should care about. Focus on it and finish patrolling as soon as possible. Just go back to sleep."

The soldiers all agreed, and then quickened their pace, and everyone quickly left.

After the last gleam of fire disappeared, Thor poked his head out of the bushes.Looking at the row of fences not far away, he felt his palms were covered with sweat.

Chip who sneaked in did not move yet, the surroundings were quiet, and the night wind blew across the grass, making a slight rustling sound.In a trance, Sol only felt that he was the only one left in this quiet world.

After waiting for a while, Sol gritted his teeth and quickly stood up from the bushes where he was hiding.Can't wait any longer, I'll have to see it for myself.

Taking advantage of no one around, Sol quickly came under the fence.When he got closer, he realized that these fences were all surrounded by whole logs, which were very high, and the tops were sharpened, so ordinary people would never think of crossing them.

After thinking about it, he quietly called out Xiaomei, and said to her, "Find a way to get me there."

Xiao Mei let out a soft hiss, and the snake's tail wrapped around a log and quickly reached the top, then she lowered her body and pulled Sol up.

With the help of her strong tail, Xiaomei froze in mid-air.Since the top of the stake was sharp, it was difficult for her to cross it for a while, so she had to hold Sol in her arms first.

Feeling the turbulent waves of the snake demon again, even though he knew it was not the time, Sol couldn't help but get lost in the pair of soft peaks.

In other words, big is big...

Just when he was lost in thought, Xiaomei tried a few postures, suddenly twisted her waist, and used the elasticity of her tail to throw Sol high into the air.

Sol suddenly felt his whole body fly up, but fortunately he was still alert, and quickly covered his mouth so he didn't cry out.

While throwing Sol, Xiaomei nimbly swam over from the top of the stake, the tail of the snake circled down, and then caught the falling Sol.

Sol breathed a sigh of relief after his feet landed safely.

Signaling Xiaomei to hide here and wait for him, Sol patted his heart and began to tiptoe inside.

Walking about 20 meters from the edge, a stretch of tents appeared in front of Sol.From his left and right sides, tents stretched out one by one at a distance of 3 meters, until they were out of sight.

In front of him, it was the same situation.Roughly, there are hundreds of tents within sight.

Soon, Sol discovered that among these tents, there were some wooden houses.

These wooden houses are built very high, the bottom is reinforced with huge logs, and the enclosure is airtight. On the top is a watchtower-like sentry tower, just like small bunkers.At this moment, the sentry tower on the wooden roof was brightly lit, covering the nearby tents in light.

There is such a wooden house in the center of every 10 tents vertically and horizontally. From a distance, it looks like a lighthouse rising in the sea of ​​tents. Obviously, these tents are managed with this kind of wooden house.

Obviously, if the people in these tents moved slightly, they would be spotted by the guards on the nearby guard towers.With the strong wooden house like a bunker, the guards only need to use weapons such as bows and arrows to shoot and kill these unarmed prisoners at will.

In addition, the garrisons on the outskirts can also come to quell the chaos at any time, so although it is only a simple camp, it is very stable.It has to be said that these Lulin people do have a set.

Just as Sol was engrossed in his observation, the guard on the guard tower closest to him seemed to notice something and turned to this side.

Sol was very nervous, and subconsciously wanted to find a place to hide, but there was no other cover besides the tent, so he couldn't get into the tent where the prisoners were held, right?
At this moment, a tent next to him suddenly opened, one hand stretched out, one hand covered his mouth, the other hugged his waist, and pulled Sol in at once.

Caught off guard, Sol only had time to snort before being pulled in. The raised corner of the tent hung down immediately, and nothing unusual could be seen on the spot.

The guard happened to look over at this moment, and naturally saw nothing.He shook his head, thinking that he had just misheard, so he turned to another place.

It was dark in the tent, and Sol felt dizzy. Just as he was about to stand up, several pairs of thick and powerful hands stretched out and pressed him firmly to the ground.

Suddenly remembering what kind of place this is, Sol secretly thought it was over.Obviously, he was caught in the tent, needless to say, according to his own are those captives,
Thinking of the "glorious tradition" in the prison, he felt a chill in his heart.Could it be that the little chrysanthemum that I have protected for more than 20 years is about to be blasted in this terrible dark night?

Fortunately, those people didn't take any further actions, they just whispered: "Who are you? What are you doing outside?"

For a moment, Sol really didn't know how to answer.Fortunately, he was quick-witted, and he quickly said: "Wait a minute, I... I am a member of the 'Bahrain Liberation and Resistance Front'."

In a hurry, he said the awkward name that he had never remembered, but said it smoothly.

The other party had obviously never heard of this organization, and the strength in his hand couldn't help but increase: "What front? Are you from the Lulin Army?"

Sol was taken aback, and quickly clarified: "Don't get me wrong, I am an authentic Dinar. Our organization is an organization that secretly resisted the Lulin occupation in Ferry City."

They all spoke in a low voice, and with the barrier of tents, this was the edge of the prisoner camp, so they were not afraid of being heard by the guards outside.

Hearing what he said, the strength in the man's hand couldn't help but relax a little, but he still didn't relax his vigilance: "Why should I trust you?"

A person next to him also said: "How do people from the resistance organization know that we are locked up here and wander around outside in the middle of the night? He must be a spy sent by the Lulin people to deceive our trust."

Sol couldn't help crying secretly when he heard it. He just killed three spies a few days ago, but he didn't expect that the retribution would be his turn so soon.

At a critical moment, he suddenly thought of a person, and quickly said, "It was Sith who asked me to come."
