Chapter 698 Food

Han Xiyue said: "There are eight lines of Suzaku Guards, seventy-seven corps, numbering one thousand nine hundred and eighteen."

Zhao Dengyu said: "Your Majesty, Commander Qi, the White Tiger Guard also only has eight lines, exactly seventy-eight troops, with a strength of one thousand nine hundred and fifty."

Xia Xin nodded, indicating that he understood.

Xia Xin then said: "You guys go down and let everyone collect local materials from the surroundings and start building a camp. This place is in a valley and can be set up as the origin of the teleportation array. It can be considered a secret place."

Sun Rong and the others nodded and immediately passed on the order.

All of a sudden, the Heavenly Guards began to cut down trees around them and began to build a camp in an orderly manner.

However, because Xia Xin had given the order in advance, they kept as quiet as possible during the process of cutting down the trees.

After the camp was almost set up, Qinglong Guard Chief Wu Xingqu also returned.

"What's going on around here? Did you find out clearly?" Xia Xin asked Wuxing District first.

At this time, Xia Xin was already sitting on a wooden bench made of wood, and he was in a simple wooden shed.

Wuxing District looked at Xia Xinhui's report: "Lord Commander, we are now on the north side of Yuewang City, in the mountain forest on the north side, but this mountain forest is very close to Yuewang City, and also very far from the camp of Karen Beast. close."

"What about the distance?" Xia Xin asked.

"It only takes less than half an hour to get to the Karen beast's camp from here." Wuxing District explained: "Because this is a mountain forest, the Karen beast's camp is very close to here, and they need to cut down the trees nearby to provide them with Fire, and the construction of Karen beast siege equipment also requires a lot of forest, so the construction of their camp is very close to here."

"Do they have many people in this camp here?" Xia Xin asked.

Wuxing District said: "There are at least 20,000 to 30,000 men, but the defense here is not very strict. I sent men to investigate. This is mainly to provide firewood and trees for the front. It is considered a logistics support base. "

Hearing this, Xia Xin's eyes lit up. Is he so lucky? Just came out and encountered Karenmon's logistics base?

"Is there any food baggage?" Xia Xin asked immediately.

However, Wuxing District shook his head and said: "I didn't find it. I didn't find a lot of food here, but there were a lot of trees and some unfinished siege equipment."

Xia Xin was a little disappointed. It seemed that this base was only providing forest resources for the Karen beasts on the front line and helping to build some siege equipment. It was not a place to store food supplies.

"By the way, Commander, we also found traces of Lord Tianming." Wuxing District said suddenly.

"oh?"

"Why are they at the logistics base?" Xia Xin said with some confusion: "If you want to improve your strength, shouldn't you find a way to go to the front line? How can you have a chance to complete the mission if you stay in the rear?"

Xia Xin was a little confused about this.

"Maybe they are worried about danger. After all, in a war, life is in danger at any time. Maybe these people are afraid of death." Wu Xingqu said.

Xia Xin shook his head. This reason was obviously impossible.

Not to mention that this group of people can obtain experience qualifications, there is no way they are greedy for life and fear of death, otherwise they would not be able to stand out.

Secondly, this group of people knew that they would not truly die during this experience, so they could not be so afraid.

Even if they are afraid of death, they are afraid that the mission will fail after death, and this time the experience will be eliminated.

However, if they do not go to the front lines to fight and improve their strength, once the time is up and their levels are not unlocked, their mission will also fail.

In this case, they might as well go to the front line and fight with others, so that they still have a certain chance to improve their level and complete the mission.

And this group of people didn't do this. What does it mean?

It shows that even if they stay in the rear now, they still have a chance to complete the task. In this way, they can not be impatient and can still stay in the rear steadily.

But how can we stay behind and still complete the mission?

Xia Xin frowned unconsciously.

He expressed his thoughts and asked: "Do you think, under what circumstances could such a thing happen?"

Sun Rong and the four others also frowned.

At this time, Li Qinghan suddenly said: "Since they are not worried about not completing the mission, it means that they can improve their strength even if they stay here."

"The only way to unlock the strength here is to kill the humans of the Karen Empire." Li Qinghan said softly: "There is only one result. There are prisoners of this war in this base. The captives of the empire obtained by Karenmon.”

When Xia Xin and others heard this, their eyes lit up.

But immediately Xia Xin frowned, and he said in confusion: "This time Yue Wangcheng has been on defense and has not launched any large-scale head-on confrontation with the Karen beast. Where did they get the prisoners from?"

Li Qinghan also didn't understand this. She shook her head and said, "I don't know about this. You can ask her."

Li Qinghan set his sights on Zhou Ying.

In this camp, Zhou Ying and Hua Xue are the only two people who are native to the Karen Empire. If there is any special reason for this, only they two know about it.

Seeing Xia Xin and others looking at her, Zhou Ying also fell into deep thought. She was thinking that if there were really prisoners from the Karen Empire in this base, where would these prisoners come from.

As she thought about it, Zhou Ying's face became ugly.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Zhou Ying's expression, Xia Xin couldn't help asking.

"If I'm not wrong, these people should be the people from the suburbs around Yuewang City who didn't have time to escape." Zhou Ying said.

Suburbanites?

Xia Xin and others were confused.

Zhou Ying explained to Xia Xin and others: "These are people who have no assets and have settled in King Yue City. They rely on planting fields outside the city and paying for food to survive. This group of people had no time at all when the Karen beast besieged the city. If you escape, you will naturally be captured.”

"Furthermore, you are wrong to say that this base is not the food storage base for Karen beasts." Zhou Ying said with an ugly face: "Humans in the Karen Empire are also one of the food supplies for Karen beasts."

As soon as these words came out, except for Hua Xue, Xia Xin and others all changed their expressions.
