Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi left Satsuma Port and headed southeast all the way back. After crossing the river, they entered the pointed helmet territory and sent out the agreed signal.
From a distance, a blue cursor shot straight into the sky.
"Walk."
The two rushed along the river to the location of the Arcane Beacon, which was an estuary where there was a black army.
Most of them are strong and well-armored rebel soldiers. After a cursory glance at the past, more than half of them are elite-level occupations. They are definitely an elite team.
Bai Xiaowen saw Kevin in front of the crowd at a glance. The arcane beacon on his head was too dazzling.
In front of Kevin, there were still some high-level leaders of the rebel army standing.
"Lord Ursoc."
Before the two arrived at the army formation, Bai Xiaowen handed the safe containing the trade license directly to Ursoc.
Sure enough, Ursoc didn't question it, but said with a smile: "Thanks for your hard work, what's the specific situation? It hasn't been exposed."
Bai Xiaowen replied: "Time is tight, and I cannot apply for a trade license through official channels... So I found the fleet of the Dirk family. After obtaining the safe, I blew up and sank their main ship. This process did not happen. fighting."
Ursoc nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very well, Dio, you are very careful. Next, they will salvage the sunken ship and identify the wreckage. It will take a few days to get it down. Wait until the Dirk family knows that the trade license together with the treasure chest The truth of the theft, we have entered North Seaport."
Prompt information on the rules of the spirit world:
"A-level side mission: The trade license has been submitted."
"You have been rewarded with 1200 merit points."
"Your reputation in the Northern Rebel Army has increased, and the current reputation level is: Respect (unchanged)."
There is also a series of news of increasing favorability, basically from the high-level rebels, but the increase is not large, indicating that the A-level mission is nothing to the northern rebels at this time. An appetizer.
"Dior, I have confiscated a fleet of six hundred brave soldiers,
Carry out this surprise attack on North County. Do you have anything to add to this? "
After the speech at the high-level military meeting, Bai Xiaowen's strategy has been approved by Ursoc, so before leaving, he is also seeking his opinion.
Of course, Bai Xiaowen would not be humble. During the short period of more than ten days in the spiritual world, the awakened person has to constantly show off and shine in order to make profits. According to the situation, it is necessary to hide things in the body occasionally and wait for the time to move, but it is even less advisable to keep a low profile.
"For this surprise attack, the number of soldiers is not the key, as long as there are enough, the key lies in the commander."
Bai Xiaowen asked in a deep voice: "If Master Usoke can fight in person, he will definitely be able to break through Beijun."
Ursoc smiled and shook his head: "After I send you away, I will immediately go to the city of Elu to defend. The territory of Elu is located in the central part of the northern border, and all the territories of Marka, Walteren, Satsuma, Pointed Helmet and Blackthorn Bordering the border, the strategic position is very important. Even if we can't win North County, we can't leave Ellu Territory behind."
After a pause, Ursoc continued: "Besides, if I don't go to Elu City, if the enemy detects this information, they may guess our strategic intention to surprise Beijun, which will make it more difficult for you."
Bai Xiaowen said: "If Lord Ursoc cannot go, I request to command this campaign."
As soon as these words came out, there was a moment of silence in the field.
Ursoc looked around the field: "What do you think?"
A rebel general said: "Not suitable, Dior has never had experience in leading troops before."
"Yes, and Dior's qualifications are not deep, and he is not familiar enough with the soldiers on this expedition, so he can't convince the crowd." Another person said.
The burly Taggart said carelessly: "It's okay for Dio to come up with an idea, but it's two different things from giving an idea and leading troops to fight in person."
All the generals of the rebel army expressed their opinions one after another, and they were not optimistic about Bai Xiaowen's command of the surprise attack on Beijun.
Ursoc pondered and said: "I am very clear about Brother Dior's intentions, but what everyone said is indeed reasonable. How about this: I appoint Greema as the commander of this expedition, and Dior will accompany the army as a staff officer."
Grima stood up and knelt down on one knee: "In the name of the great God of War, Istar, I swear to dedicate this victory to Lord Ursoc."
Ursoc said solemnly: "As the commander of this battle, you must listen carefully to the opinions of Brother Dior."
"Yes." Greema stood up and nodded to Bai Xiaowen.
"Dio, do you have any objections to this arrangement?" Ursoc asked.
Bai Xiaowen smiled slightly: "I have no objection."
In fact, Bai Xiaowen knew a long time ago that it was impossible for him to get the command of this important battle. The reason was the same as what the generals of the rebel army said. Possibly a Commander?
It was a normal choice for Ursoc to send Grima, his confidant, to command.
Asking for the command, Bai Xiaowen was just asking for a lot of money, but Ursoc let Bai Xiaowen serve as the army's staff, and let Grema pay attention to his opinions, which has basically achieved his goal.
The commander and the staff made a decision, and then Ursoc appointed several leader-level generals to go out with the army.
Kevin said: "Master Ursoc, I also hope to participate in this battle."
"Master Kevin?" Grima was slightly taken aback. Kevin, who always had nothing to do with himself, actually asked to fight. It seems that this surprise attack on Beijun is indeed a good opportunity to make meritorious service.
Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes.
Ursoc laughed loudly: "Okay, my chief mage will fight, which is enough for an elite army."
At this time, Bai Xiaowen finally received a reminder of the rules of the spirit world:
"[Hero side mission: Assault on North County] is open."
"[Mission Objective: Assist the rebels in occupying the Lord's Hall of Beijun City and control 75% of the important area of Beijun City.]"
"【Mission Difficulty: B】"
"[Task Reward: Unknown]"
"[Task period: 120 hours]"
Li Shuyi said in a low voice, "Xiaowen, it's another hero branch." There was a hint of excitement in her voice.
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile in the team channel: "According to my conclusion, it is normal to evaluate a hero-level mission for such a large-scale legion battle."
"It's a pity that the task difficulty is B-level, which is not very high."
After training after the cuaa national competition, after both of them have significantly improved in strength, Li Shuyi is obviously a little swollen...
Bai Xiaowen shook his head with a smile: "The difficulty of B-level hero missions cannot be underestimated... In fact, given the important status of Beijun as the capital of the northern border, the siege battle should be more than B-level difficulty, but the specific situation must be considered. Beijun should have sent a lot of troops Going to Elu City, the defense in the city is empty. And on our side, there are Grema, Kevin and two other leader-level rebel generals fighting, which also reduces the difficulty."
The two quickly took over the task.
Ursoc laughed and said, "Okay, I will repel the invading enemy army in Elu City, and wait for the news of your victory."
"Lord Ursoc, be careful," Grima said.
Ursoc's elite army is used to raid North County. He will only bring a few auxiliary soldiers and old and weak soldiers to Elu City this time. Tagot, a strong man, will go with him because he is too conspicuous, but The accompanying guards are still too weak.
Ursoc was not nervous. He waved his hand and said, "It's okay. After the news of your capture of North County comes out, the North County soldiers led by Arenas will definitely lose their morale, and the siege of Elu City will be lifted naturally."
Bai Xiaowen thought to himself, Ursoc is indeed a hero of a generation, quite bold.
Kevin picked up the safe. As a multi-specialized spell expert, he easily unlocked the magic seal without triggering the alarm.
After breaking the seal, the strong man Taggart smashed it down with a hammer, and the safe carved from hard golden nanmu was instantly torn apart.
There is not only a trading license in it, but also some gold and silver goods in Captain Dirk's private collection.
Ursoc was very generous, and rewarded the meritorious minister Bai Xiaowen with a wave of his hand.
Bai Xiaowen was very happy on the surface, but actually lacked interest in these gold and silver treasures. The reason is very simple, these are things that cannot be brought out of the spirit world.
This also involves the "resonance" of psionic particles. This safe was stolen by Bai Xiaowen. It is not a loot dropped from a monster, nor is it one of the mission rewards. Of course, it cannot be taken out of the spirit world. The same is true for trade licenses, which also cannot be taken out of the spirit world.
A group of people boarded the boat one by one, and the fleet set off.
The surprise attack fleet made a certain camouflage, displayed the flag of the Dirk family, and the leader disguised himself as a businessman. Most of the elite fighters were hidden in the cargo hold, and a small number of rebel fighters were disguised as sailors.
Such a contingent of armed merchant ships, the number of which is unknown in the Boguas Strait, will certainly not arouse suspicion.
Ursoc was indeed well prepared for this raid. When he sent Bai Xiaowen to obtain a trade license, he also recruited two veterans who had been used to the trade routes of the Boguas Strait with armed merchant ships as pilots.
According to the statements of the two veterans, the Boguas Strait is not peaceful, mainly in two aspects.
The first is the attack of the ferocious sea beast.
The silverback sharks in the Boguas Strait are quite a deadly threat to small and medium-sized ships—the sharks, being creatures of the spirit world, are of course different from ordinary sharks. They are elite aquatic beasts that can easily overturn small boats and land People and animals that enter the water naturally become a delicious meal.
Sharks do not threaten large armed merchant ships, but this does not mean rest easy, because there is another terrible sea beast in the Boguas Strait-killer whales!
The killer whale is the local name of the Aaron plane world. If it is on the earth, it should be called an orca or a killer whale. This kind of leader-level sea beast is much more powerful than sharks, and it is also a highly social creature. It usually does not appear alone, and it is a family.
Unlike sharks, the continuous impact of killer whales is fully capable of destroying large armed merchant ships.
The second is the looting of pirate ships.
The Vikings are a tough race, and those Vikings who take risks and set sail into the sea for thieves are even more difficult to mess with. To be honest, the artillery and ammunition equipped on the ship are mainly for dealing with Viking pirates...
At this time, the value of the two experienced veterans is revealed. They can guide the fleet, according to the changes of the seasons and the direction of the ocean currents, to avoid the corresponding areas where sea beasts are ravaging, and to avoid the hardest hit areas where pirates are flooding.
If you are unlucky enough to meet pirates, then there is only fighting.
Fortunately, the fleet did not encounter pirates, but only encountered a group of silverback sharks, which swam with the fleet for a while, but they could not do anything with large merchant ships.
Two veteran pilots pulled out two cows, cut open the artery and pushed them into the sea, letting the group of silverback sharks compete for food, and finally got rid of them.
Bai Xiaowen originally thought it was unnecessary, because the silverback shark group could not threaten the big ship. But the veteran quickly told him the whole story—getting rid of the silverback shark group was not about being afraid of sharks, but to prevent the shark group from attracting killer whales, because shark groups are also food for the killer whale group.
Bai Xiaowen also gained a lot of knowledge after going out to sea by boat.
Come to think of it, the oceans of the earth in the era of spiritual energy should also be like this, with all kinds of dangers hidden, right? Although there are awakened humans on earth now, they still have a blind eye to the ocean, and their control is far inferior to that in the era of AD.
At the end of the two-day voyage, standing on the deck, Bai Xiaowen could see the lighthouse and dock in Beihai Port.
This is the territory of Beijun, the capital of the northern border. Beijun City is very close to Beihai Port, and it can be regarded as a coastal city in itself.
Master Kevin mixed some paints, and disguised Grima according to Bai Xiaowen's description, as long as he was somewhat similar to Captain Dirk. As for Bai Xiaowen's impression of Captain Dirk, it only exists in Balfour's memory fragments.
In addition, the auras of several leaders were also disguised, disguised as the auras of ordinary or elite templates.
However, this busy work was in vain in the end, because Beihai Port inspected the trade license, and it was completely certified without recognizing the person. Even the inspection of the goods was very lax. After registering the words "three shipments of rice", they waved and let them go.
One after another, the carts were pushed off the boat and drove towards Beijun City, which was just a short distance away.
Outsiders thought these carts were full of rice, but in fact, what was hidden inside were rebel soldiers with sharp knives.
The convoy ran into trouble until it came to the gate of Beijun City. The Imperial Army officers guarding the gate would strictly and meticulously inspect every cart of goods entering the city. It was poked in by a sharp knife for inspection.
Because of this, there was such a long queue at the gate of the city. It is estimated that it will be dark when it is Bai Xiaowen's turn.
"Guys, we can't just wait around like this, we have to figure something out."
Several rebel leaders, together with Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi, had a brief meeting. Greema spoke first and said in a low voice:
"Although Beijun City has mobilized most of its troops, the remaining old, weak and remnant soldiers are more than enough to defend the city. We have hundreds of people, attacking the city is not enough, we must sneak in."
