Chapter 20： Suspect

As soon as the sky was bright, everyone began to pack up and set off.

As the trail of the wolf cavalry got closer and closer, anxiety began to spread among the escaped team.

Saer wrapped up the half hare leftover yesterday and stuffed it into his arms, ignoring his companion who was whispering constantly beside him, but looked around in the camp, looking for the beautiful figure.

Soon, Thrall locked the target.

But unfortunately, there is another man standing next to that figure.

Saar touched his left cheek, and the weal mark on it was still aching.

Companion Bam looked at Thrall, who was in a trance, and couldn't help but sneered: "Okay, Thrall, don't look. That noble lady is not something a civilian mercenary like you can achieve."

"Who said that mercenaries can't like the noble lady?" Thrall retorted impatiently.

"Haha, do you really understand the status gap between civilians and nobles? Silly boy!"

"Don't call me stupid boy again!" Thrall looked back at Bam viciously.

"Okay, okay." Bam shrank his head in fright, and hurriedly told Rao.

Thrall let him go, his eyes followed the figure again, and said in a deep voice: "Bam, do you know Earl Uman?"

"Of course I know, Lord of Fallen Eagle City."

"Yes, do you know how the title of Earl Uman came from?"

"Isn't it passed to him by his father?"

"Yes. Then, do you know how his father's title came from?"

"His grandfather passed it on." Bam thought this question was a bit silly.

"No." Thrall slowly shook his head, "It was passed down from his grandmother to his father."

"So what?" Bam scratched his bird's nest-like hair, his face full of confusion.

"Why did it pass from the grandmother and not the grandfather?" Thrall's eyes flashed strangely, "Because Earl Uman's grandfather is actually a civilian mercenary!"

"How is it possible?" Bam exclaimed.

"But that's the truth.

Earl Uman’s grandfather married the daughter of the former lord of Fallen Eagle City as a mercenary. Later, the son of the lord of Fallen Eagle City died, and his title was passed to Earl Uman’s grandmother, and then passed on. To the father of the earl—that is, the son of the mercenary! "

Bam opened his mouth wide, as if listening to a fairy tale.

Thrall’s eyes flashed with a strange light, it was something called ambition.

He approached Bam and lowered his voice, as if he was making an oath: "So, the son of a mercenary can also become a nobleman!"

After speaking, Thrall strode towards the direction of the figure.

Bam stared blankly at the tall figure of his companion, feeling mixed.

However, what Thrall didn’t tell Bam was that the mercenary who married the Count’s daughter was a Tier 6 fighter and the president of the Northern Mercenary Union. people".

"Ms. Vera, good morning! Knight Colin, good morning! Please allow me to lead the horse for you as an apology for offending you yesterday."

Colin looked at the low-brow and pleasing mercenary in front of him, feeling bored, and waved his hand as if he was waving a fly: "No need."

"Are you unwilling to accept my apology?" Thrall immediately made an aggrieved appearance, and then deliberately revealed his left face, with traces of blood oozing from the welt mark on it.

"Colin, real knights should know how to forgive." Vera seemed to have been deceived by the miserable appearance of the mercenary, and she even offered to help.

Saar was overjoyed, but at the same time it was painful.

Fortunately, Miss Vera will open her mouth to help him out.

It hurts that she even called Colin by name without adding the "knight" suffix!

This is a very intimate way of addressing.

too unreserved!

"No, I think it would be too much for the leader of the Firefox mercenary group to lead me to the horse. In fact, I happen to have a more important task to be handed over to Captain Thrall."

"You look at me too high..." Thrall instinctively noticed something wrong.

"Why, don't you want to do me this favor?" Colin would not give the opponent a chance to refuse.

"I... I certainly do, it is my honor." Thrall had to bite the bullet and agreed, but he had already regretted it in his heart.

"Very good!" Colin grinned, showing sharp tiger teeth, "In order to get rid of the chasing soldiers behind us, we need to mislead each other so that they can't figure out our true movement.

So, later, please lead fifty people-pick young, strong and fast-all the way to the north. After about 20 to 30 kilometers, you will reach the bank of the rushing river.

At this time, you have to deliberately leave some traces of crossing the river north, but in fact, you don’t really need to cross the river, but quietly follow the rushing river all the way to the east, and you will be able to meet us after walking about a dozen kilometers.

Of course, when you go downstream, you must remove the traces of the march, and you must not attract the enemy!

do you understand? "

Saar heard it in a cold sweat, and felt that Colin was avenging his personal revenge and found an excuse to get rid of himself: "You, are you asking me to be a bait?"

"No, it's not a bait, it's a suspect!" Colin said sternly, "Moreover, we will cooperate with your actions. As long as you do exactly what I said, there will be no danger."

"How to cooperate?" Thrall was still uneasy.

Colin frowned suddenly.

If this is in the regular army, Thrall dares to ask such a question, the coach can directly chop his head.

Because the coach is not obliged to explain his overall strategy to each general under his command.

After each general receives the military order, he only needs to act in accordance with the requirements of the military order.

Instead of asking questions, hesitate, pick and choose.

Even if the coach really assigns you a mission to kill you, you can only perform it.

The military order is like a mountain, even if you really want to crush you, you can't hide!

Unconditional obedience is the number one priority for soldiers. UU reading www. uukａnshu.com

But obviously, mercenaries like Thrall cannot have the qualities of a real soldier.

Colin was very helpless, so he had to patiently explain:

"Our cavalry will all disperse, search and destroy the wolf cavalry's sentry behind you, to ensure that the other side will not be able to understand our specific movements within the next two days. Therefore, as long as you hurry up, you will not be overtaken."

Saar thought for a while, and then asked: "So, your plan is to let me lead a small group of troops to deliberately make the illusion of crossing the river to confuse the enemy, while the large troops find a place to hide?"

"That's right."

"Then how do you know that the enemy will be fooled? No matter how carefully we clean up the marching traces, as long as we carefully investigate, we will always find clues."

"Because we will hide in a place where the enemy can never imagine."

"Where?"

Colin became impatient gradually: "Mr. Thrall, have you been to the area around the river before?"

"no."

"Then you won't understand." Colin gripped his horse's belly lightly and moved forward slowly:

"Follow what I said. When you arrive at the southern bank of the river, make some illusions of crossing the river, and then follow the river all the way to the east. You will come to the place I said to hide and meet the big troops. At that time, you will understood."

"Knight Colin..." Thrall chased a few steps and asked again.

"Mr. Thrall, I believe you will be able to complete this mission, right?" Willa said warmly.

Saar immediately raised his head and held his chest up, patted his chest and said loudly:

"Of course! I will not let you down!"

It's a pity that this little mercenary who is lost in Vera's charm won't see it, and Colin, who walked a few steps forward and turned his back to him, is showing a mocking sneer.
