Chapter 79 Border Scouts

The Savage Plains is a land further north than Mobei.

There are many monsters living here.

Because of its dangerous terrain, there is a vein that cuts off the area, and there are only five routes to get here.

"You have a heavy task to do here. One is to confirm the safety of the route, and the other is to confirm a camp."

They are all elite soldiers in the army, and they are ordered to explore the way ahead.

The well-equipped expeditionary force will move forward along the path they have explored, intercepting the members of the tribe. They are obsessed with the Khan's dispute and will not pay attention to the border cavalry that suddenly came out from the rear.

At this moment, the enemy is in the dark.

It's just that the path to the destination and the time of the Khan's dispute have always been top secrets of the royal court.

As the border war broke out, the invasion of several tribes became more and more intense.

The Khan entered the king's tent, and it was another ten-year disaster for the common people. The scout captain didn't know what his general was thinking, he just needed to faithfully execute orders.

There was no reason, only what to do.

The scout captain looked at the remnants of his army. Of the thirty soldiers, only nine survived.

Even the old horse that had accompanied him for many years died.

They had used their lives to find a safe and stable path. They were sure that this path was absolutely safe.

The only cavalry team that found them was shot dead by the mercenaries in front of them.

The location of the camp was excellent. The terrain was high and there were small hills on all sides.

There were very few monsters nearby.

They had hardly seen any of the huge monsters along the way.

If they wanted to continue the plan, it would be impossible to rely on their scout team that had been almost completely destroyed.

Without their horses, they were just meat to be slaughtered on this vast plain.

"You said, you are mercenaries. How much do you need to hire you?"

Perhaps it was fate that refused to let them stop here.

He looked up at the mercenary leader with a kind expression.

The man was wearing ordinary cloth and was respected by all the soldiers in the camp. The general with a murderous aura saluted him and sat in front of him waiting to start.

This kind of temperament has only been seen in those victorious generals. They are calm and confident in themselves.

A bad soldier will make a bad general.

The scout captain believed in his own vision.

The soldiers under his command would not be weak. If they could be set up as outposts here...

"A thousand taels of gold, okay?"

Ji Lin agreed quickly.

It was not for the thousand taels of gold. Although he was indeed short of resources, the thousand taels of gold should be worth two or three thousand gold. Depending on the quality, it was almost the output of his territory for a month.

It was still quite profitable.

The system showed him the following tasks:

‘Broken Royal Court’

‘After signing, you will automatically join the camp: Border Army’

‘A place of life and death, where you can die or live. Be brave and face life and death.’

‘Phase: Get the location of the 꿻 tribe camp and pass the information to the expeditionary army’

The new camp, like this kind of exercise battlefield with NPC camps, lords can participate on their own. Different camps fight each other separately, rather than a complete melee, but quite a few lords seem to prefer to fight first and then consider other things after the fight.

The first thing they did was to collect the bodies of other scouts. They sent out the hunting spider search team to find all the bodies. The horses did not survive, and gathered all the scout bodies together, took off their chain mail, put away their long guns and spears, and handed them to the scout captain for safekeeping. The other party nodded and said nothing, and solemnly put them away.

A separate grave was dug for them on the spot, the bodies were buried, and a simple tombstone was made for them with wood.

There is no wine in the camp, and the territory does not have any crops that are particularly suitable for fermenting wine. Beer brewed from wheat requires hops, and perhaps the territory can consider using ripe sugarcane to brew white wine.

The scout captain who finished everything seemed to be much more relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning around, he turned around and asked Ji Lin about related matters, until he mentioned that he needed to go back to report the situation and needed a vehicle for future use.

"What? You don't have cavalry?"

If there are no horses, how did you get here? How dare you run to such a place?

The scout captain choked on a word and didn't say it.

He thought that the cavalry in the camp were just wandering outside, but he didn't expect that these people really dared to approach the grassland without cavalry, which was not courageous.

There was a kind of bravery of a newborn calf not afraid of a tiger.

"No, it's not that we don't have it."

We still have cavalry.

Holding his face, Ji Lin asked Chang Heng to start the steam spiders that had been lying down for a long time and inject fuel into them.

"Xu Xiao."

Xu Xiao had a bitter face. He had guessed what his leader was going to do.

Although the upper part was not particularly hot because of the isolation baffle used to protect the thinking core, and the exhaust pipe was placed at the tail of the steam spider, it would still generate a lot of waste heat.

Tolerating such a thing next to you is already a test of your endurance.

Riding such a thing will test your nerves.

Putting aside safety and stability, the movement speed of this all-terrain unit is definitely not slow.

Seeing the figure of the steam spider slowly rising from the ground, shaking its head and spitting steam as it stretched its six limbs, the scout captain was shocked. He had never thought that there would be such an amazing machine in this world.

"By adding wooden protective partitions and fixing them with saddles, you can create a small platform that can accommodate several 그, but the stability cannot be guaranteed. This thing was built without considering overload."

At least you can sit down, right?

Xu 껚 handed over his plan to Ji Lin.

And these scouts still have one remaining task to complete, which is to determine the location of the remaining members of the clan.

The system even thoughtfully marked that there were only three tribes left that needed him to investigate.

There are only three clans left out of more than a dozen clans. The efficiency of these actions is astonishing. Can they be said to be the lords who are at the same stage as themselves...

However, judging from the speed at which we are clearing out nearby monsters, there will not be too many other resources left. With half the number of people reduced, there are still more than a hundred lords surviving. These more than one hundred 그 can be converted into 1,000 그 each. The 그 army is an army equivalent to 100,000 그.

I just don’t know what the lords who are nearly exhausted are doing.

(Thinking and feeling, the data is a bit less after opening the secondary version. I have been looking for similar books for reference during this period, but I couldn’t find it. Haha, I can only write it down, but what you want to read I accepted them all~)
