Chapter 281: Still Not Escaping

At night, when the white crescent moon rose into the sky and the bright stars illuminated the earth, on a smuggling road hidden between the dense forest outside Mars City, there were nearly 2,000 people, including hundreds of old people, children, women and children, and the rest of the more than 1,000 people, except for more than 100 male compatriots who wore expensive robes and swords at their waists, the rest were composed of Mars people wearing plate armor, holding swords and shields, carrying crossbows, looking like Kong Wu, and having a thin body, but they contained extremely strong explosive power.

Of course, in addition to the characters in the procession, there were dozens of horse-drawn carriages and ox carts, and it is not necessary to guess that the horse-drawn carriages were for the old and weak women and children, and those ox carts were used to transport goods.

At the front of this team, dozens of well-dressed Mars people were leading a horse of almost the same breed as the Hobira Ranger of the Sunset Hussar in previous years, heading towards the invisible road in front of them, and guiding the team members behind. Among the more than 10 people, the leader is an old man over 60 years old, an old tiger.

These more than 10 people can be regarded as a very small number of people in the Mars Empire who have mastered the beginner equestrian arts. Although the Mars Empire has continued to introduce horses to the Dick Empire, the Dick Empire does not want the Mars to master the cavalry ability, so when selling horses to them, the price is not only extremely high, the quantity is very small, and the breed is of inferior quality, which leads to the fact that so far the Mars Empire can own horses only in its empire with higher rights, plus the nobles prefer to use carriages instead of walking, rather than directly using horses, so until now, except for some heralds in the Mars army, The only generals who can have mounts are Mars.

"The damn moon is so bright, and there is not a single cloud in the sky, if it hadn't been for the fast walking just now, I would almost have been able to escape into the forest." Looking at the bright moon that appeared and disappeared among the layers of leaves overhead, the old man, or Marshal Marshal, muttered with disgust, and then turned his gaze to the front and continued: "The damn sun never sets, why are their soldiers' reconnaissance ability stronger than our lynx warriors? It's so bad that we can't even light a torch, how can we walk without a torch at night in this kind of dense forest? If the sun does not set at this time, the soldier will definitely walk up and pat the old marshal on the shoulder, and say with a sympathetic face: "This poor boy is too outdated, and the war eagle is specially used to bully your ignorance." ”

Now you don't have to guess to know that the team in front of you is the Minister of Mars and his family who escaped from the night and the sun before the soldiers surrounded the imperial city after receiving the three instructions before the abdication issued by the old Emperor Mars, under the leadership of 5,000 Mars royal guards and the old Marshal Tanger.

In the end, the old Mars Emperor Kribard, who had not had time to evacuate before, still did not choose to retreat with the ministers, on the contrary, he not only did not retreat, but also came to the city wall in the opposite direction of his escape when the fleeing party was about to leave, and let the surrounding Mars soldiers stand the imperial flag of their empire behind him, while he was wearing a set of fine and dazzling armor customized from the Dick empire on the city wall, and dangled back and forth on the city wall for half an hour to inspire the soldiers present before retreating.

Klebder's purpose in doing this is very simple, as an old emperor who is nearly 60 years old, the wisdom and experience he has accumulated in his life of fighting are not Gaide, although he can't see the purpose of the sun never setting in the Mars Empire due to the elusive whereabouts of the people who never set in the Mars Empire, but the troops that never set on the day appeared so quickly on the edge of the imperial city of his empire and set up camp, and cooperated with the strange battle report from the inland front of the northwest continent more than ten days ago. Klebold guessed that the purpose of Sun Lin's poisonous needle plan was nothing more than to kill himself and occupy the Imperial City of Mars to demoralize his soldiers, and finally destroy the current predicament caused by his own empire on which the sun never sets.

It is impossible to escape, because Klebold knows that if he abandons the imperial city and escapes, it will have the same effect as the death of the northern club of the imperial city, so after thinking about it, Klebold decided to take a dangerous move, in his opinion, since the sun does not set makes him and the Mars Empire unhappy, then he wants to let the sun not set before the fall of the Mars Empire, so on the surface, when the escape team leaves, he frantically attracts the attention of the party that does not set, so that it ignores the existence of the escape team, and secretly abdicates the book, That is, the golden parchment was handed over to Tanger, and he was given to his son, and the news of the relocation of the capital and the establishment of the new emperor was spread on the way.

Klebold had a good reputation among the people and the military class at the bottom of Mars, and if the two orders to move the capital and establish a new emperor really came out, then the death of Klebold and the occupation of the old imperial city of Mars would not only not reduce the morale of the Mars soldiers, but on the contrary, it would turn them into mourning soldiers. There is an old saying in the original world: the mourning soldiers will win. At that time, the army of more than 200,000 Mars, stimulated by the morale of the old imperial city and the new Mars Emperor, will inevitably become extremely crazy, and even if the sun does not set, it will definitely win miserably, and even the victory will be so miserable that it will not be able to resist the 200,000 Dirk Empire army that will join the Northwest Continent in the unification war.

However, as the saying goes, there is a way that the world is unpredictable, and the attention of the nearly 20,000 troops who do not set the sun is indeed attracted by Klebrd's behavior, but the commander of the nearly 20,000 people, Andert, and the other 1,000 officers and soldiers who do not set the sun, and nearly 100 slave soldiers who belong to the jurisdiction of the army but do not belong to the race of the sun, are not attracted by Klebold, on the contrary, it is this team that escapes from the city that attracts them.

At this time, on the smuggling road more than ten meters away behind the team, two sneaky figures came to the middle of the road and squatted down to grope for the carriage marks on the road, and whispered in a contemptuous tone: "These Mars fools don't even get rid of the carriage marks after leaving, this is forcing us to pick up the road." ”

"The most stupid thing is that these people actually dare to take the trade road used by our smuggling team of the Sun Never Sets Empire, they really don't know how to write the dead words of the road."

"Okay, now that the whereabouts of this group of more than 2,000 people have been clarified, let's go back, and then it's the turn of those secret room guards of the Mo Forging people to perform."

"Yes, Captain." Immediately, the two figures disappeared into the forest sea.
