Chapter 354: The Impregnable Border Fortress

After carefully questioning Chemi, Field learned about the deployment of Shadow World Sect’s troops in Rick Province.

There is one fourth-level God Chosen, but he is far away from the Bull Territory and other places, and is on guard against the Governor of Rick Province, so there is no need to worry.

After all, Bull Territory is a stable control area for them, and they have their own things to do.

But Bull Territory, Fiery Horse Territory, and Argali Territory each have people from Shadow World Sect on duty, all of whom are third-level God Chosen. Among them, Miss Chemi from Argali Territory has fallen into Field’s hands.

There are also two Corrupted God Chosen, also third-level.

Fortunately, the information about corruption is not a secret, and Chemi told Field the information about the corrupted creatures with certainty.

The main forces of these families have reached a terrifying 4,000 people, most of whom are the border guards of Bull Territory, with amazing combat effectiveness.

"Such a force is really terrifying..."

Opheli took a breath and swallowed his saliva: "Field, our weak military force is no match for the Shadow World Sect. My suggestion is: give up."

"From the perspective of paper combat power and local conditions, it is right to give up."

Field dispelled the feeling of powerlessness in his heart and cheered up: "But now is not a positional war. We have not been exposed in a short time. We should seize this opportunity and rob them hard."

If his eldest brother can contact the Shadow World Sect, he will definitely ask about the progress. Once the disappearance of Chemi attracts the attention of the Shadow World Sect, then he will be passively beaten.

Take a step back and say that even if no one cares about Chemi's disappearance, the corrupt creatures that continue to flock to the Bull Territory will not threaten his safety. Field is also unwilling to accept the Bull Territory and become a bomb that may explode at any time.

"I listen to the adults." Asina raised her hands and stood in line without thinking.

"Don't worry, I will plan carefully."

After thinking for a moment, Field clapped his fist and said, "I have a bold idea."

After releasing the black crow and carefully scouting the terrain around the fortress, Field returned to Starry Night City and made arrangements.

Called the Fiery Horse Baron Aniri.

"Are you going to let me go? Sure enough, after a round of scouting, you now know the horror of the Shadow World Sect."

Aniri sneered. In his opinion, Field was just a wandering outside the border fortress, and was frightened by the terrifying defense and corrupted creatures. He said before that he would take the initiative to attack, how could he do it?

Field stopped playing with him, and said seriously: "You don't need to guess about my affairs. Mr. Aniri, you have a way to prove your identity. Please write a letter for help, and I will send someone to ask for help quickly."

The enemy has too many troops. If the empire can know the situation and send troops over, the troops of the three lords in the hinterland of the Shadow World Sect will inevitably be greatly weakened.

"Just write a letter? Oh, okay."

Annieri stopped talking nonsense and wrote a letter for help in an urgent tone, and wrote the border fortress's exclusive dark pattern logo.

"That's it. The Empire's army will definitely crush all the rebel clowns like crushing ants." Anieri was excited.

"Very good, I will send someone to deliver the letter. I hope the Empire's army can do something. You are ready to lead the way for me. I will violently attack the Hongru Bull Fortress."

Field wrote down the military order and stamped it.

"You have the courage, but you are just going to die. You can't take the border fortress. Don't think there is a secret passage to enter the Bull Territory. Our convoy descended from the city wall, not the secret passage."

"Are you afraid?" Field laughed jokingly, "You just need to lead the way."

"Wrong, not only am I not afraid, I will fight." Aniri stretched out his hand and said, "Give me back the equipment, I want to kill those scum with my own hands. Before, it was just to pass on information, otherwise I would choose to die in the territory like a knight!"

Feeling Aniri's resolute gaze, Field nodded: "Okay, since you have such awareness, mobilize your previous subordinates and let them listen to my arrangements."

Field summoned all the heavy cavalry, guards, and 200 soldiers of the First Army to march normally to Caitou Village.

"Fortunately, I asked Opheli to transport food and weapons and store them in Caitou Village in advance. It is very convenient to have a front-line village."

In this way, it saves the effort of carrying baggage.

Tisifa and the remaining troops are responsible for protecting the territory.

On the other side, Field personally escorted a team with light cavalry to Maple Leaf Territory, intending to pass on intelligence to the outside world.

Without cargo, Field quickly arrived at the outskirts of Maple Leaf Fortress with the high mobility of light cavalry.

"Huh~ I hope what I'm worried about won't happen."

Taking a deep breath, Field did not let the troops approach the city wall, but stopped in the distance. His fingers clenched the hilt of the sword at his waist, and then relaxed, and said to the soldier who delivered the letter: "When they don't let you in, don't force it, just come back."

"What do you mean?" Annirui beside him didn't understand.

"Nothing, I hope the messenger can bring the letter." Field nodded to the people in front of him.

Two soldiers, with five messengers, holding fog lights, walked forward.

Four of these messengers came from Liema Territory, and they were all Annirui's confidants. When they met the great nobles, they might be more credible. I am just a family abandoned child, and my words are not important.

The messenger team arrived in front of the city wall, and the fog lights on the wall illuminated a safe zone.

Countless deer horns and roadblocks were everywhere, and the fortress gate was full of rotting corpses.

"Stop." The soldiers on the city wall immediately noticed the messenger team and picked up their crossbows. "This is a border fortress!"

"Sir, we are Baron Field's people, not wights."

"Oh? You didn't bring any goods with you this time." A sergeant poked his head out of the city wall and glanced at the people below. "Go back. The fortress is currently under martial law and no entry or exit is allowed."

"We can pay, please be accommodating." A messenger took out a bag of gold coins.

The sergeant said coldly: "If you say no, go back."

"It's over."

Field, who was hiding in the gray mist, was stunned and suddenly broke out in cold sweat.

When dealing with the Imperials, being bribed with a few gold coins is nothing. What is really scary is that when they are "incorruptible", it becomes a big deal.

"The maple leaf collar is impassable. We are blocked."

Field was using his fighting spirit to prepare to call them back directly.

At this moment, a soldier from the Liema Leader shouted to the sergeant on the wall desperately: "We are the survivors of the Liema Leader. The Liema Leader has been affected..."

The words are not finished yet.

"I knew it." The sergeant's eyes were full of murderous intent and he shouted directly, "They are monsters controlled by the rotting corpses. They are trying to sneak in and kill me!"

"Defense mechanism, activate!"

The countless magic defense towers on the city wall flashed with light.

"Boom boom boom!"
