Two hundred and fifty-four chapters [Ming Xiu dark crossing]
Chapter 254 [Cultivation in the open and secret crossing]
Although the so-called "perfect body" mentioned by Semmel is curious, Du Wei has long been used to Semmel often having some "memories" that even she can't figure out. It seems that this Semmel
It seems that there are many inexplicable memories hidden, and even she herself has not figured them all out.
Sebastian rejoined the battlefield, and the strength he displayed this time did not look like a person who had just been seriously injured. The fighting spirit of the ninth-level knight was brought into full play, and the frost fighting spirit turned into the cold air in the sky, which once made doubts in his heart
The dragon warriors suppressed it. However, the strength of the powerful golden dragon cannot be questioned after all.
After destroying the "Frost Moon Sigh" trick twice in a row, Sebastian finally sealed the golden dragon in a sheet of ice. Unfortunately, it didn't last long.
The golden dragon broke out of the ice in a moment, and then the angry dragon warrior swept the major general out again with his dragon spear. But this time, it was clear that Du Wei and everyone could clearly see that this
A major general was hit hard by the golden gun in mid-air, and the sound of his bones breaking was not suspicious at all. Even when Sebastian's body was in mid-air, after being hit, his whole body became twisted.
, at that moment, Du Wei even suspected that the major general's body might not even be intact because his entire waist was broken, and his body formed a folded posture that was shocking.
flew out.
Even the blood spurting out of his mouth is enough to kill someone!
Sebastian was knocked away again, this time almost breaking through the city wall.
"Is he...dead?" Du Wei couldn't help but whisper to himself.
Hussein frowned and shook his head: "No, his fighting spirit has not disappeared."
When Sebastian once again lifted off the huge stone that was pressing on him and walked out of the ruins intact, even the proud dragon warrior couldn't help but be surprised.
"The perfect body...is this the perfect body?" Du Wei asked Semmel in his heart: "Isn't the perfect body the immortal body?"
"There is no real immortality in this world. Even a powerful person like Aragorn cannot escape death." Semmel's answer seemed a little unclear.
"What on earth are you!" The dragon warrior raised his spear and pointed at Sebasta from a distance: "You are not a human being! Human beings cannot have such self-recovery ability... Even a strong man of the holy level cannot do it.
That’s it!”
Sebastian gently wiped the blood on his face. He seemed to be uninjured. He sneered and slowly walked into the battlefield again.
This time the battle lasted longer, and the dragon warrior seemed to be somewhat suppressed. However, it was obvious that the second prince of the dragon clan was also aroused. This time, his golden gun was fully unleashed, with strong fighting spirit.
The oscillation caused this piece of land to be instantly covered with countless cracks!
"But... have you noticed... Sebastian seems to have become stronger? He lasted longer than last time."
Hussein suddenly whispered:
"He is learning dragon martial arts!"
Keng!!
When Sebastian used the sword in his hand to hold the Dragon Warrior's golden spear for the first time, Du Wei finally confirmed his suspicion!
He actually held it! Instead of like before, the golden gun easily destroyed Sebastian's sword and knocked him away!
Although all the muscles in Sebastian's body seemed to burst, and although Sebastian was swept away by the power of the gun, he actually managed to hold on this time! Even though he was embarrassed, his hands
The sword inside did not break again!
Even though it was just an ordinary long sword that he had just temporarily taken from a Northwest Army general!
The ice on the sword's edge had been shattered. After Sebasta breathed heavily, he smiled ferociously: "Respected Lord Golden Dragon...have you used up all your fighting energy?"
Du Wei's heart skipped a beat!
He suddenly discovered something vaguely wrong again! Because although Sebastian only showed the strength of the ninth level... But it seems that from the battle to now, Sebastian has been fighting fiercely for so long. Even the momentum of the golden dragon
They all began to weaken, but Sebastian's fighting spirit showed no sign of weakening at all!
Doesn't he feel tired?
"I will twist your head off directly this time!" the golden dragon roared angrily, and he was indeed not exaggerating. Seeing that the human in front of him was getting stronger and stronger, even though he had been fatally injured twice in a row, he was still intact.
Standing up...Such a strange thing made the Dragon Clan feel a little uneasy.
The dragon warrior suddenly thrust the golden gun in his hand into the ground, and rushed towards Sebastian with his bare hands. With a heavy punch, he directly penetrated Sebastian's arm, breaking his arm, and then punched directly
It hit Sebastian's chest. There were a few clicks and the sound of the sternum breaking. Sebastian looked up and spurted out a mouthful of blood. His body immediately flew out behind him. This time, the dragon warrior's speed suddenly increased.
Suddenly, he quickly rushed behind Sebastian, and landed an elbow on Sebastian's back. There was a click, and the sound of his spine breaking made Duwei couldn't help but feel a little bit sore.
With such an injury... if he is not dead, it can only mean that he is a monster!
The dragon warrior's arms had already strangled Sebastian's neck, and he was about to really twist off the opponent's neck. Sebastian suddenly yelled, and the fighting energy in his body suddenly burst out, and he hit the dragon more than ten times in a row.
Finally, there was a slight gap in the soldier's arms, and he broke free with his strong speed. He coughed violently, and blood spurted from his mouth, but he still managed to escape dozens of meters quickly.
"stop!"
After spitting out the last mouthful of blood, Sebastian's broken arm was gently dragged by himself. With a click, the bones reset themselves. Then he shook his arm...what the hell! In a moment,
The injury has almost recovered.
"Stop!" Sebastian saw that the dragon warrior was coming again. He suddenly took a step back and said, "No more fighting!"
"...What?!" The dragon warrior's eyes were full of murderous intent.
"I said I won't fight." Sebastian took a breath, his expression was very calm: "You are indeed stronger than me, I surrender. My current strength is far from your opponent, and there is no point in continuing to fight.
"
"Hahahaha..." The dragon warrior laughed wildly: "You said you won't fight if you don't want to fight?"
Sebastian was very calm: "Yes, if I say I won't fight, will you be able to catch up with me?"
The dragon warrior was startled. Indeed, in a pure speed competition, although the opponent was only at level nine, he was indeed faster than him. If he simply ran away, he really couldn't catch up with this guy.
"And..." Sebastian seemed to have determined that the dragon's pride was the opponent's weakness, and said slowly: "Does the great dragon only dare to challenge opponents weaker than itself? You clearly know that I am not as strong as you.
, you must kill me to be so tough, right? If I am stronger than you, can you still maintain such a tough fighting spirit?"
The dragon warrior laughed wildly and said: "How to challenge the general! Humph, even if you are right! You are indeed a very interesting opponent! I will give you a chance. If your strength improves again in the future, I will give you another duel.
Opportunity!”
After saying that, he pulled out the golden gun stuck on the ground and turned to look in the direction of Du Wei: "Du Wei, do you want to continue to be a coward?"
Du Wei laughed loudly and said loudly from a distance: "His Royal Highness the Dragon Prince, you seem to have decided that I am weaker than you, so that's why you are like this, right?"
"You are different from this guy." The golden dragon sneered: "You are my father's enemy. If I don't kill you, I can't explain it."
Du Wei sneered, but before he could speak, Sebastian already said: "Duke Tulip is a distinguished guest of our Northwest Army. Your Excellency, if you must kill our distinguished guest here... No matter how powerful you are, you can
Facing tens of thousands of human armies? Although our Northwest Army is not the Holy See or the Magic Union, if we must fight tooth and nail, it may not be impossible to keep you here today!"
On the city wall, the mobilized ballistae has been aimed at the dragon warriors, and thousands of armored soldiers have gathered under the city gate. Above the sky, several intermediate magicians working for the Northwest Army are also watching.
When Sebastian said such words, Du Wei understood that the Northwest Army, which had seen through his intentions, would probably not fight the Dragon Warrior as he wished, and both sides would suffer losses.
Sebastian was very smart and made a powerful connection. Indeed, with the strength of the Northwest Army, it is not impossible to keep this dragon at all costs. Moreover, there is someone like Sebastian who is almost impossible to kill.
The monster is present.
"Duke Tulip." Sebastian looked at Du Wei and said slowly: "Since he is on the territory of our Northwest Army, we naturally have to protect him. Although we don't know what grudges he has with the Dragon Clan.
,but……"
Du Wei secretly laughed in his heart, that's all, it's good to have such a result today, you can't be too greedy.
Thinking of this, he took a step forward and said loudly: "His Royal Highness the Prince of the Dragon Clan. Since you are here for my life, I am embarrassed to let the allies of the Northwest Army die for me. So be it, if you still have
If you respect the dignity of the Dragon Clan, I will give you a chance for a fair fight. Ten days later, I will wait for you at the foot of Loulan City. Either you want to take my life, or I can keep yours. At that time, we
Let’s have another fair fight!”
It seems that the information is very accurate. Although this dragon is very proud, he is not a reckless guy. After a little consideration of the pros and cons, he laughed wildly and agreed: "See you in Loulan City in ten days!"
After saying that, in the golden flames, he jumped into the sky, leaving a dragon roar, and then disappeared into the sky.
Du Wei sighed, looked at Lu Gao who was standing not far from him, and bowed slightly: "General, I would like to thank the soldiers of the Northwest Army for their help tonight. Otherwise, I would not be able to cope with this situation alone.
Head dragon."
Lu Gao was angry in his heart, but his face was calm and he said calmly: "Since the Duke is our distinguished guest, we cannot let you have trouble on my territory."
Even though he was filled with hatred in his heart at this moment, his face didn't show it at all.
All in all, Du Wei's method of causing trouble was not as effective as expected. But now it seems that the losses of the Northwest Army are not small.
Almost half of the wall of Watt Fortress collapsed, and the number of troops lost reached 700 to 800. This small number of troops is indeed nothing to the Northwest Army. But after forcing out Sebastian, this little monster showed his true ability.
Come on, it can be considered a moderate gain.
The most important thing is that the Northwest Army lost a magician! Tata Yalo, a black magician with level 8 strength and the chief magic advisor of the Northwest Army, also died here this time, such a loss.
It is far enough to withstand tens of thousands of powerful soldiers.
After the golden dragon retreated, Lu Gao ordered a large number of soldiers to be sent into the city to maintain order. Originally a militarized fortress city, Watt City quickly settled down. On the outer city wall, the Northwest Army also began repair work. Du
Wei was invited into the general's mansion by Lu Gao. Even though Lu Gao was extremely angry, he still wanted to appease Du Wei in order to save his face. He even proposed to hold a banquet to calm down the shock. However, Du Wei knew that Lu Gao must be extremely angry now.
He had to avoid the banquet so that the generals of the Northwest Army would not get angry and cut him into pieces at the banquet.
What makes Du Wei strange is that after returning to the city, Sebastian has not shown up again. Today Sebastian can be regarded as shining brightly. Originally, at his age, he could reach the ninth level of strength. Looking at it,
The entire continent is considered a top-notch genius. What's more, with his ninth-level strength, he can resist a golden dragon warrior without losing?
Especially the weird ability he actually displayed to become almost immortal was even more amazing. Although Du Wei was curious about this, he also knew that now was not the time to pry for information.
After returning to their station, they immediately ordered people to close the door. Du Wei and Hussein hid in the room and began a secret conversation.
Mentioning the "perfect body" that Semel told him, Hussein was also very unfamiliar with this title. However, when talking about Sebasta's strong recovery ability, Hussein also sighed with emotion: "With a body like his, he can indeed
It can be called a perfect body... Both speed and power have reached a balance. Especially with such terrifying recovery strength, even if the opponent is stronger than him, he may not be able to defeat him."
"But... can the human body really reach such a level of fear? Or... is this Sebastian not a human at all?" Du Wei smiled bitterly.
Neither of them could answer this question. But suddenly, an idea flashed through Du Wei's mind, and a vague idea seemed to flash through his mind. However, this idea flashed too fast, and he could not catch it.
It's just that... vaguely, Du Wei suddenly remembered something strangely.
In the underground secret room of the abandoned Governor's Palace in Gilliat City...the skeletons seemed to be metal monsters...the "experiment" mentioned in the last words of the former Witch King Gulanxiu.
My mind is too confused. I won’t think about it for the time being.
But in general, today's harvest is not small. The poor black magician Tata Yaluo, who spent his whole life working hard to create the bone dragon, gave Du Wei an advantage, and the necromantic energy he cultivated throughout his life also made him better.
Du Wei absorbed less than half of it. More importantly, because Du Wei did not kill the living beings to refine this kind of undead energy, he did not have to worry about being hunted down by the law enforcement team of the Magic Union.
"This is considered legal income." Du Wei smiled proudly.
On the other hand, in the general's palace, Lu Gao, whose face was extremely gloomy, did not give many orders to his generals. He simply asked everyone to retreat and handed over the defense of the city to his trusted henchmen.
.Then the leader of the Northwest Army dismissed everyone around him and walked into the inner courtyard of the general's mansion alone.
This inner courtyard is considered a forbidden area. No one can enter without Lu Gao's order.
Lu Gao was born in the Snowy Mountains, and a special kind of witchcraft was used to set up some restrictions around this forbidden area. Even if outsiders wanted to sneak in, it would not be that easy.
Lu Gao walked into a remote house all the way. Then he kicked open the door in anger. He suppressed his anger and did not smash anything in the room. Instead, he took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
into a cabinet.
The inner panel in the cabinet is pushed open, revealing a secret passage. Going down, you can hear the faint sound of wind, and the sound of dripping water can also be clearly heard.
If Du Wei were here, he would be surprised to find that the secret passage of General Lu Gao's Mansion leads underground. Both the layout and architectural style here are very similar to the underground labyrinth under his Gilliat City!
After turning on the switch and opening a stone door, a shrill and painful howl suddenly came from the door. The sound was sharp and terrifying, as if it contained endless pain.
Lu Gao's expression became more and more gloomy, he turned around and closed the door, and walked into the secret room alone.
In the secret room, the ground was covered with bloodstains, and a man was naked but covered in blood. He was howling in pain, while his body kept twisting and rolling on the ground. The muscles on his face were twisted, and his body was
It was rubbed against the ground, and the skin and flesh were broken in many places.
"Father...Father...I. Stop me quickly!!"
The painful howling sound was none other than the Major General Sebasta who made a brilliant appearance on the battlefield today!!
At this moment, how could Sebasta still have the dignity of a brave dragon warrior? He was rolling on the ground like a bereaved dog. His whole body was in a strange state!
The muscles that were originally in perfect proportions were bursting with blood and flesh in many places! Under the surface of the skin, there seemed to be countless faint bulges, as if there was some airflow or something going back and forth in the skin.
What's even more frightening is that although he has tried his best to suppress it, with every breath, his muscles are swelling more and more, and the skin in many places on his body has cracked, but his body seems to contain an explosive power.
.It will break out of the body at any time!!
Sebastian was in extreme pain. He opened his hands and tried hard to clench his fists, but he couldn't. At this moment, although his whole body was terrifying, he had no strength at all, and could only roll on the ground feebly.
.
"Control!!!" Lu Gao's majestic voice sounded out of the secret room: "Control!! Don't be reckless, use your inner strength to control this body! You can do it, my son!"
Sebastian suddenly laughed wildly. His voice was full of violence and madness, and he suddenly giggled. Like a madman, he roared at his father in a vicious tone: "Stop talking nonsense! Old bastard
!!In addition to saying such things, what else can you say! If you whisper in my ears again, I will kill you!!"
The next moment, this violent voice suddenly became as pitiful as a sheep, with a pleading tone, gasping: "Father... knock me out quickly... I can't control him... knock me out quickly, he
It’s coming out! It’s coming out…”
Lu Gao's hands were trembling, and his face was full of complexity and pain. He walked silently to Sebastian and squatted down.
"You...you! Old guy, go to hell!" Sebastian suddenly became crazy and punched Lu Gao with his left hand. But at the same time, his expression changed again: "Don't hurt him!!"
However, his right hand hit his left shoulder hard, blocking Lu Gao's punch.
"Sebasta! You are my son, Lu Gao! You can control him! Since you could do it before, you can definitely do it now!" Lu Gao took a deep breath, raised his palm, and gently
He gently pressed Sebastian's forehead, and from his palm, a milky white light slowly forced out, and gradually penetrated into Sebastian's eyebrows...
The heavy breathing gradually calmed down, and the expression on Sebastian's face changed instantly, sometimes violent and frantic, sometimes cowardly and pitiful, sometimes laughing wildly, sometimes crying out in pain. Finally, when Lu Gao's face gradually turned pale, it was obvious that
Having exhausted all his strength, Sebastian gradually calmed down and his mood became calmer.
I don't know how long it took, but Sebastian suddenly let out a long breath and sat up slowly. He took a few deep breaths, and the bloody wounds all over his body healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When I got up, the granulations grew crazily. In a moment, all the scars on my body were gone, without leaving any traces.
In his eyes, all the rage and cowardly pleading just now disappeared, and finally merged into the usual indifference and calmness.
"Father." Sebastian sighed suddenly: "You have used such a spell again. You should understand that if you use such a spell one more time, your lifespan will be reduced."
Lu Gao was silent for a while, then smiled faintly: "I am old, even if I die... you will inherit everything from me."
"But... I still can't achieve complete integration now. If in the future, you are gone and I still can't achieve integration..." Sebastian shook his head.
"You are my son, Lu Gao." Lu Gao suddenly showed a hint of pride in his eyes: "You are the best descendant of Daxue Mountain. If I say you can do it, you will definitely be able to do it!"
"But..." Sebastian suddenly smiled softly: "I'm very worried... What if one day I really can't control it anymore... and I kill you?"
"Kill me..." Lu Gao suddenly laughed: "In the past thousands of years in the Snowy Mountains... people have sacrificed their lives for crazy attempts. I, Lu Gao, am not the first, nor will I be the last."
After resting for a while, Lu Gao took out a bottle from his arms, poured out a little water-like liquid, took a sip himself, and then took a deep breath: "Are you feeling better now?"
"I think there is no problem." Sebastian climbed up, patted the dust on his body gently, then walked to the edge of the secret room, opened a cabinet, and took out a pair of shoes that he usually wears.
The iron mask of that style lightly covered his face. When he turned around, he looked at Lu Gao with indifferent eyes: "I think there is no problem... It's just that I have used my power too frequently recently.
That’s all.”
After a pause, he suddenly sighed softly: "Father...how far am I from the real perfect body...?"
Early the next morning, Du Wei took the initiative to come to the General's Mansion to visit Lu Gao.
After a night of adjustment, Lu Gao seemed to have perfectly controlled his emotions. Two foxes, an old one and a small one, were talking to each other in circles. Their words were hidden and sharp, and they clearly wanted to devour each other in one bite, but they didn't
The place is peaceful.
Then Du Wei and Lu Gao talked secretly in the room for a whole morning. Hussein waited outside the whole morning. And Lu Gao's study was not something he could enter.
There was a small interlude in the middle, and I heard a sudden shout from the study, and then there was the sound of something being smashed. Hussein frowned, and was about to rush in, but suddenly he remembered today.
Before coming, Du Wei confessed his words.
"No matter how long I stay in there, no matter what noise you hear, don't worry, and don't act rashly."
Sure enough, when the surrounding guards rushed into the study with nervous expressions, they were all driven out by Lu Gao's roaring voice.
It was not until noon that the two guys came out of the study. Du Wei had an obviously hypocritical smile on his face, while Lu Gao gritted his teeth. His eyes were cold, but he was still barely holding back his anger.
"In this case, General Lu Gao, you don't have to send me far. I will prepare to go back to my territory in the afternoon... You also know that when the prairie people make such a fuss, they will have a lot of things to do. I will come out.
These days, I don’t know what kind of chaos the family has become." Du Wei smiled more and more calmly, and when Lu Gao looked in his eyes, he became even more annoyed.
His face changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I won't give it away!"
Then he rushed into his study without even saying hello.
"What exactly did you and him talk about inside?" Hussein asked.
Seeing Lu Gao walk into the study, the smile on Du Wei's face disappeared little by little, and then he sighed: "Oh... let's talk about it on the way. Negotiating with this old guy is really like dancing on the edge of a knife."
! Several times just now, he almost couldn't hold back his anger and wanted to draw a knife on me. Hehe!"
Although Lu Gao said "no", when Du Wei's chariots and horses left the city, they were still accompanied by hundreds of fully armed elite cavalrymen of the Northwest Army.
In particular, this cavalry team also brought 3,000 fine war horses and dozens of carts, which were loaded with enough weapons and armor to arm 3,000 cavalrymen.
These were all won by Du Wei in a "bet" before. And the female slaves he saved during the bet were also taken on the road by Du Wei.
As the cavalry in front opened the way, the large group of people left the Watt Fortress. After walking on the road for a long time, the Watt Fortress behind them gradually disappeared. Du Wei seemed to be vaguely relieved.
"What on earth did you talk to Lu Gao?" Hussein was also sitting in the carriage.
Du Wei's eyes flashed and he smiled mysteriously. Then he whispered: "Northwest Corridor!"
Northwest Corridor?
Hussein was stunned for a moment.
"The Northwest Corridor is the only passage to the desert and grasslands outside. It is also our biggest weakness. It is our gateway! The two times that the grassland people were able to sneak in secretly was because the Northwest Army responsible for guarding the door opened the door and let them go... Huh,
I've been tricked once or twice. If I'm tricked by someone again, I won't be able to bear it! The hatred between us and the Northwest Army has already been forged. If we continue to hand over our gate to these people to guard it, they won't need much more.
No matter what tricks, two or three thousand prairie wolves were brought in every three or five, it would be enough to make us miserable. So..." Du Wei said this and smiled softly: "I want the Northwest Corridor back! Lu Gao promised me
, within ten days, he will order the evacuation of all the people at several checkpoints in the northwest corridor... Then, there will be no northwest army in the entire Desa province. And I... I will be in the northwest corridor.
Rearrange a line of defense to prevent prairie people from sneaking in again."
Hussein sighed: "Lu Gao is really willing to hand over such an important place to you... You know, as long as he holds the Northwest Corridor for a day, he is holding our throats! He is willing to do it so easily.
Let me go?"
"He had to let it go." Du Wei smiled faintly: "This is one of the biggest purposes of my coming to Watt Fortress this time. The northwest corridor must be taken back. I talked with this old guy all morning, using force and inducement.
All means have been exhausted. Fortunately, I have one thing right: Lu Gao does not want to rebel now! And this time, he must make a gesture to show the imperial capital. Although he killed the golden wolf head, if he continues to control the northwest corridor,
He still couldn't wash away the sewage on his body. I told him that since he was determined not to collude with the grassland people... it would be better to hand over the Northwest Corridor. If the grassland people sneak in in the future, the responsibility will not be shouldered by the Northwest Army...
...Well, what I said was probably a bit too straightforward. Lu Gao was so angry that he banged the table and got angry...Haha, and then in front of me, he swore to heaven that Lu Gao was loyal to the empire.
Words like Geng Geng... made my mouth dry."
After a pause, Hussein suddenly asked again: "By the way. Where did you send Philip?"
"He... I asked him to leave the city early this morning... Well, he was sent by me to see Governor Bohan." Du Wei smiled slightly: "Okay, after we have passed Helan City, I want Governor Bohan to
Someone will be sent to greet you. We will stay at Governor Bohan's mansion for one day...this time, everything will be done!"
After Du Wei finished speaking, he seemed a little tired. He leaned in the corner and closed his eyes to rest.
He was indeed a little tired. The exchange of words and energy spent in Lu Gao Gao's study in the morning was no more relaxing than fighting a powerful enemy.
Moreover, on several occasions, Du Wei clearly felt that he had touched Lu Gao's bottom line and really aroused the other party's murderous intention! But for some reason... Lu Gao endured it again.
Taking back control of the Northwest Corridor is a matter of great importance, and Du Wei will not give up under any circumstances. Moreover, when the two sides refused to go down, Du Wei even deliberately showed a tough side, vaguely hinting to Lu Gao:
If he doesn't let go, he will not hesitate to send troops to take back the Northwest Corridor by force! Lu Gao, you can either rebel immediately and fight with us! Or, return the Northwest Corridor to me!
In this way, Lu Gao was finally forced to compromise.
However, looking at Lu Gao's faintly gloating look at the end, it seemed like he was looking at a joke.
The Northwest Corridor is actually a canyon with wide terrain. It is a fault in the Kilimaro Mountains. It is several miles wide at its narrowest place and more than ten miles wide at its longest place!
It is really not an easy task to send troops to guard such a wide "passage". What is even more difficult is that it is impossible to build a military fortress and station heavy troops in that place!
First, Du Wei's own military strength is not rich. Second, there is no water source in the northwest corridor. If he really has the ability to station tens of thousands of troops there, his daily water supply will have to be transported from the rear. Such a huge supply will
Brag yourself!
The difficult geographical environment turns out to be my own gateway...
It won't work if we send troops, and it won't work if we don't send troops.
Lu Gao... Do you want to see my joke? Then let you see it!
After two days' journey, the group arrived at the separation point between the Northwest Army and Governor Bohan's forces: Helan City.
Here, the thousand cavalry escorted by the Northwest Army left, and Governor Bohan sent a group of garrison cavalry with orders to greet them.
Philip was also in the queue of people sent by Bohan. Seeing Du Wei's motorcade arriving, Philip rode up to Du Wei's carriage and waited for Du Wei to get off.
The young staff member had a smile on his face: "Your Excellency, Governor Bohan is very interested in the 'win-win' plan we proposed for conscription. He is waiting for you in the Governor's Mansion in the capital."
Du Wei looked at Phillip's tired face and sighed: "Thank you for your hard work."
Indeed, this young man took the first step and quickly went to the capital of Nulin Province to ask for a meeting with Governor Bohan. Then he persuaded this stubborn guy and brought Bohan's troops here to greet him. He went back and forth in just two days.
Traveling hundreds of miles is hard enough for a frail young staff member.
Then he smiled at Hussein behind him, winked, and whispered: "Look, Hussein... we will soon have sufficient troops!"
However, then, Philip smiled bitterly and whispered: "Your Majesty, things are not so optimistic... because Bohan has put forward a... condition that may make us very embarrassed!"
