The Maser army led by Hassan set up camp again when they were still one day away from the Eastern Region.
With the addition of troops led by Homulus, the total number of this army has reached close to 700,000.
In the handsome tent, Lord Hassan had just taken off his heavy armor and felt that his whole body was sore.
After all, age is not forgiving!
When we went to Terji five years ago, we were still energetic and tireless. Who would have thought that now just marching would make us so tired that it seemed like we were going to fall apart? !
This is true for me, but what about these soldiers under my command?
Most of them are the original members of the team five years ago. They have experienced the idleness of the peaceful years. How much of the strength and determination of the past do these former warriors still have? !
This kind of worry is the reason why Hassan has strictly ordered everyone to wear heavy armor since the day of the expedition.
In this way, he wanted to restore the army's combat effectiveness within a limited time as much as possible, and also let the soldiers gradually enter the state they should be in.
However, the effect should be said to be unsatisfactory and even counterproductive.
The soldiers and generals were all complaining, and the speed of march was repeatedly slowed down as a result.
In fact, there is another reason for Hassan to do this, and that is the rumors that are getting worse and worse in the army.
"Marshal Hassan is tormenting us like this just to show the McCanns. We are his bargaining chip to gain power!"
"Marshal Hassan betrayed the Queen, and the Queen has been killed!"
"The Queen is not dead. She is just gathering her old troops. She will return to Masak in a few days!"
"This expedition was actually promoted by the McCanns. It was the price Marshal Hassan promised to take power!"
"No, I heard that this is actually a trap conspired by Telji and Ruers!"
"Russia doesn't want to fight with us at all. It was Prince Scott who started the trouble, so they had to fight back!"
"The army in the Eastern Region has rebelled, and they are waiting for us to come to our doorstep!"
"I heard that the marshal and the deputy marshal don't get along, and there has been internal strife between the two parties!"
"Isn't it? It is said that Hassan personally cut off the arm of the deputy commander's general Farooq!"
"Look, the marshal and deputy marshal will have to fight before they even meet the Ruhrs!"
"It is said that the real supporter of the McCanns is Homulus!"
"Marshal Hassan says he is our commander-in-chief, but in fact he has to listen to Wilson and Deirbora in every move he makes!"
It is normal for soldiers to complain because they are tired and worried.
Usually, this nonsense will disappear after a fight or two.
Or, just increase the intensity of training and make the soldiers exhausted every day. Naturally, they are not in the mood to talk nonsense!
However, Hassan's purpose failed to achieve the expected results.
Rumors were still spreading unscrupulously, and the resentment of the soldiers was growing day by day.
Hassan stared blankly in the direction of the tent, worried, feeling that there was an invisible black hand that was sparing no effort to confuse his army.
Damn it, where did these rumors come from?
The Marshal knows very well that the content of these rumors is not as simple as making up rumors...
"It must be this old guy Homulus. Except for him who is ungrateful and ungrateful to the Lord, who else knows so much inside information?" Hassan thought bitterly in his heart.
At the same time, he also realized a more dangerous signal.
If these rumors really came from Homulus, could he have been instructed by the McCanns to do so? !
Could it be that the Wilson bastards are ready to kill the donkey?
The marshal's eyes flashed fiercely, and he couldn't hold it back any longer. He stood up and wanted to find bad luck for Homulus.
At this moment, the attendant outside the door announced the news from Arima Se.
Hassan rushed in.
When he opened Templeton's autographed letter and read it, his expression suddenly changed!
"Hmph! Camping again! Is this Suriel's Hundred-Fighting Lion? Bah! It's worse than an old lady walking on the street!" Wilson roared angrily.
"Hey! Don't worry about these things! We can reach the Eastern Region in one day at most. Even if Hassan delays deliberately, there will always be times when it is unavoidable." Dilbora gently rubbed her sore calves. , advised in a low voice.
Seeing that the woman looked absent-minded and thoughtful, Wilson suppressed the annoyance in his heart and asked helplessly: "Are you still thinking about those two things? What result did you get?"
Delbora nodded, shook his head, and said slowly: "Philip said that the reason why the operation in Zudai failed was because he met Sukhbalu of Ilp. As far as I know, this person has always been seen by Shenlong. He never got to the bottom of it, and rarely participated in national political affairs. If he was really involved in this matter, I really can’t figure out why he would do it.”
"It must be someone pretending to be someone, right?!" Wilson speculated casually.
He didn't want to discuss this topic at first, but the war was coming, and women were always a little distracted, as if they had been struggling with this matter.
Wilson had no choice but to bring it up, hoping to dispel the doubts and make Delbora stop being suspicious and focus on the matter at hand.
"This possibility is extremely slim. Because injectors cannot deceive people. You should know that Huanglongjia, Huanglongchu, and Huanglongjue are collectively known as the Three Earth Dragon Talents. They are considered the pinnacle of the earth system and are unique injectors. Unexpectedly , the Huanglong Pestle was actually in Ganmir's hands. Unfortunately, after his death, this treasure was lost by Capricorn Tong. The whereabouts of Huanglong Jue have been unknown. And the Yellow Dragon Armor is the legendary Sukhbalu's fame. Weapon. Since Philip saw his opponent wearing yellow dragon armor, he should be able to determine his identity." Dilbora analyzed patiently.
When Wilson heard this, he knew that some secrets might not be kept a secret.
Moreover, he himself was indeed very puzzled by Sukhbalu's appearance in his ancestors.
"Is it some force from the Irpu Alliance that is instigating him?" Wilson asked tentatively.
Delbora couldn't help laughing when she heard this question.
"Mr. Wilson, the Irp Alliance is a loyal ally of McCann! You should ask them what you just said!" the woman said teasingly.
"Hmph! This woman has been beating around the bush for a long time, and she really wants to elicit this sentence." Wilson thought to himself, pondered for a while, and replied directly: "Once the war with the Ruhrs begins, the Irpu countries must Share the pressure. Therefore, I did inform them of our plan in advance, and they also expressed their approval and support! There should be another hidden secret about Sukhbaru. Since you can’t think of the reason, I will send someone Go check it out.”
"Now we have reached a critical stage of the plan. Anything can affect the whole body. Therefore, our cooperation must be more transparent. Do you understand what I mean?!" Dilbora took the opportunity to say .
"That's natural! Oh, what about the other thing? Do you think Scotton and Garcia also conspired?" Seeing that the woman had gotten the answer she wanted, Wilson probably wouldn't ask further, so he changed the subject and asked.
"According to the secret report, this was said by Serov himself, so it should have a certain degree of credibility. When Scott went to Marseille, he had shown signs of alienation from us. You should be very clear about this! The woman said, casting a dissatisfied look at Wilson.
Wilson snorted coldly and did not answer.
The woman smiled slightly, pretended not to see it, and continued talking to herself: "It is speculated that he may have some secret contact with the Telgi people. And Garcia, judging from his personality, will never treat Ignore the opportunities presented to you.”
"No wonder Garcia's attitude changed after Scotton died! Humph!" Wilson continued disdainfully: "However, these two people are no longer alive now. Even if there was a conspiracy, it is all a dream! Dill! Ms. Paula, please stop thinking about these things!"
"Are they all dead? I hope so!" the woman thought to herself.
Until the army left Maser, Delbora did not receive any information from the woman in Lan Shang confirming that Garcia was dead.
This was always a thorn in her heart.
"I didn't think much about it. I was just worried that even though they were gone, the conspiracy they left behind would be detrimental to our actions." Dilbora responded casually.
Wilson was about to ask again, but he heard Phillip's voice coming from outside the tent: "Sir, Commander Stephen has received an urgent report that something has happened in Horseshoe!"
