Shen family villa.

"Where are we going next?" Ouyang Ling asked.

Shen Rui said seriously: "The closest one to us, excluding Ji River, is Linhe Fort. It is 300 kilometers due west of us. Those strange monsters that dispersed from Guanhui Fort may pass there to replenish their numbers."

"Okay, 300 kilometers, we can get there in one morning. We have different horses to catch up with them," Ouyang Ling said, "Let's contact the people in Linhe first and ask for local information."

Shen Rui nodded, this is Lao Cheng's opinion.

Xia Daxue had left early due to something, and Teacher Wu rushed back to Jihe Fort to make a summary report. They were the only two commanders in this team at this time.

However, with the battlefield space, the difficulty of command is greatly reduced. After all, a fixed small area, 9 square kilometers of command, and an upper limit of 594 people. After so many battles, all the cavalry captains have been able to cooperate on their own, and there is no need for Shen Rui at all. Enter battlefield command.

This is the advantage of real people compared to game AI. Game AI is limited by technology and player hardware and cannot reach very high levels. The awesome AlphaGo beats all human Go players, but behind it is an even more awesome team and a bunch of people. Hardware support that exceeds the wealth of chess players.

The two exchanged some latest current topics, and the news mainly came from the radio stations they listened to.

It mainly includes which castles suffered serious losses, which castles showed new tactics and new talents emerged.

Their team is the first large-scale field mobile operation in the province. However, the news has not spread yet. Only after Teacher Wu's report is approved can a small amount of information be released to the outside world.

The news in the entire Province L is half good or bad. The bad news is that another fort was breached today. The last time such a thing happened was five years ago. This severely dealt a blow to James Fort, who advocated strong support for the forts in the province. The face of the Lord.

After all, the Seven Forts exchange meeting has just passed, and just after seeing the results, the first fort will be broken in the blink of an eye.

The good news is that the other forts suffered very little damage, and the personnel and property have been basically preserved. It is expected that there will be a big development this year.

But overall, the breach of Guanzhuang Fort is like tearing open a big scar, and it won't heal within three to five years.

This bloody fact made the forts in the province, whose morale had just been boosted, once again understand that they were still weak in the face of aberrations.

After a while, a team member who was responsible for the march radio came over to report.

"I contacted Linhe. They said that a large number of strange monsters have just been discovered over there and are dispersing to the west. They are very welcome for us to go there and hunt them down, and are willing to pay part of the travel expenses."

"This is good news." Shen Rui nodded.

The strange monsters that were originally concentrated in Guanzhuang Castle were gathered together from all sides, and now they will definitely return to their original territory of survival.

After all, each aberration consumes a huge amount of money, and unlike humans who have concentrated agricultural output, they must occupy a very large territory to survive. It is already quite incredible to be concentrated in one place for half a month. Their logistics The level is not as good as that of the ancient feudal army.

The two of them quickly made a decision and left Luzhou Fort through the west gate.

Then galloping along the west city avenue, more than 200 cavalry were carried by Shen Rui, and only 40 were released. There were also 10 bodyguards, making up a team of 50 people, responsible for safety on the front and rear roads.

They quickly arrived at the three-way intersection. Due west was Linhe Fort, to the northwest was Guanzhuang Abandoned Fort. It is estimated that this road will be abandoned next year; to the southwest was Anwu City outside the province.

In order to avoid being misunderstood by other provinces, Shen Rui did not choose to go to Anwucheng. Linhe was one of the best choices.

There is no trace of people on the rather dilapidated roads. The January tide has cut off the trade routes. Only the air transport routes may still be in operation.

However, after traveling for more than 100 kilometers along the westbound road, Shen Rui saw a large caravan coming from a dirt road from the south.

The caravan has a large number of people, at least six to seven hundred people. It is mainly composed of a large number of horse-drawn carriages, supplemented by a small number of off-road vehicles. The traveling speed is probably only about 20 kilometers an hour. It is very good to be able to cover 100 to 200 kilometers a day.

After seeing them from a distance, the other party further reduced their forward speed and sent three men on horseback to talk to them.

"We are the Stars Caravan from Anwu City. Where do you come from?" A middle-aged man in a tan uniform among the three said politely.

They all saw the strength of this cavalry team. Although there were only 50 people, the strange horses underneath them and the strength they displayed proved their strength.

Seeing this, the three of them felt relieved. Such a powerful team could not be bandits who occasionally strayed. They could only come from regular castles, and regular castles highly protected caravans, and there were no caravans coming and going. In the castle, there is only one dead end.

Shen Rui drove his horse forward, with five people following closely around him.

"We are a team sent by Luzhou Fort to support Linhe. I wonder where you are going?"

"We were going to Luzhou Fort. The Southeast Avenue we used to walk on was occupied by a group of weirdos. We took a long detour from the west." The middle-aged man was delighted.

From what the other party said, he knew that there would be no danger if he went eastward from here. After all, there were no traces of the recent battle on the faces and bodies of these people, and the blood stains on their clothes had long since dried up. The black shape looks like it was left many days ago.

"Southeast Avenue? Point out the location for us. If it's not too far away, we'll clear it first." Ouyang Ling rode over from behind and asked someone to bring a large-scale map.

"Thank you so much. They are neither far nor close to here. You can see them by walking 120 kilometers from the Luzhou Sanjiakou to Southeast Avenue." The middle-aged man pointed out on the map a location where the road intersects the river.

At this point, he felt that the other party might refuse. After all, it meant that the other party had to run a long distance to get there, and it would take a lot of unnecessary walking back and forth.

He then continued: "If you eliminate the group of monsters blocking the road and send us a telegram, we will leave you a considerable reward in Luzhou Fort."

"Very good, let's rush there right now." Shen Rui didn't care about the reward. He just kept the map in his mind, nodded, and turned his horse around.

"Wait a minute, please be careful. That group of monsters has gathered a large group of wild beasts. They seem to want to occupy it for a long time. They have managed the terrain and there are hundreds of them." The middle-aged man reminded kindly.

He could see that these 50 people should be able to eliminate the opponent, but if they were careless, the casualties would definitely be high. Of course, he did not want to see this situation.

Because that means making enemies with the other party, and small and medium-sized businessmen like them believe in not making enemies if they can, because that means rising costs.

Only large businesses with monopoly positions lack such scruples.

"Thank you." Shen Rui said politely.

A group of 50 people drove back along the road, but no one complained, not even the horses, and they would not complain.

The three people from the Stars Chamber of Commerce looked at the horse team flying away in the dust and watched each other leave.

One of the young people was very envious and said: "How majestic, Uncle Liu. They didn't even plan to ask how many weirdos there were in the first place, right?"

"Yes, these people are very strong, very strong. I didn't expect Luzhou Fort to be able to field such a strong team after just experiencing a strange trend. It seems that we have to be more polite when dealing with them." The middle-aged man named Uncle Liu. The young man nodded.

"That guy in the lead is a bit too young. Is he 18 years old?" Another young man said with the same envy.

"Another young genius, just like our Xia Wuyan from Anwu City." Uncle Liu couldn't help but compare.

"Xia Wuyan is amazing. He reached the seventh level at the age of 18, and he was promoted to the first and second levels of perfection. It scares people to death, but he is too ugly. He lives up to his name, unlike the guy just now, who can stand up to others... "

"You say it as if people can take a fancy to you. For someone like you, you don't want to marry anyone else."

"Tch, it sounds like they will be willing to marry you."
