Chapter 403

Breton walked out of the camp and nodded to Sheltai, indicating that he had completed the mission.

Everyone's faces were bloodless, and they knew what had just happened.

Tong Kede followed Shelthai for thirty years, but she was executed by Shelthai if she didn't fight a battle well.

As the Grand Duke and as the commander-in-chief, he seemed to have done nothing wrong, but how to solve the current problem? The army is about to run out of food.

Sheltai had long planned for this. The road to transporting grain would not work, but it could still solve the problem of eating through traditional methods, that is, grabbing.

There are several small towns around Parrot City. In the eyes of Sheltai, attacking these towns is almost as difficult as cleaning up a few honeycombs.

Poke the honeycomb down, kill all the bees, and eat the honey. It’s that simple. Even if you are occasionally stung by bees, it’s not a pain or itch.

Snatch all the food in these small towns to eat for two months. With these two months, you will definitely be able to capture Parrot City.

In addition, he also allocated a group of people to guard the main traffic road leading to Crispy Stone Mountain.

He knew very well about Crispy Rock Mountain. He knew that there was no food produced there, and the enemy troops guarding Crispy Rock Mountain also needed food supplies.

By keeping the important road, you can cut off the source of grain from the Crispy Stone Mountain. You can not only obtain food, but also force the Crispy Stone Mountain to a desperate situation. Such meticulous tactical thinking made Sheltai sincerely admire his wisdom and was even more disappointed with his subordinates.

Especially when seeing the generals who are carrying heavy responsibilities, Sheltai always sighed in his heart: You idiots, even if you have half of my wisdom, this war will not become so difficult.

Their first target was Green Flying Town, which was closest to Parrot City. Several villages were robbed along the way. They relied on the few grains to support them near Green Flying Town.

He heard that there were about a thousand troops in this town, and Sheltai didn't take them seriously. He even suspected that the lords here dared not resist at all.

As he had imagined, the lord did not resist, nor did the civilians, and no one resisted, because the entire town was empty and there was no one even a beast to see.

Everyone ran away?

No wonder, the battlefield is nearby, and these country bumpkins have no knowledge, so it is reasonable to escape.

Sheltai asked someone to go to the granary to try his luck, but he couldn't find a grain of wheat.

The food was almost finished and could not stay for too long. Sheltai immediately ordered a departure to attack the next target Liuping Town.

The situation in Liuping Town is the same as that in Luxun Town. The town is empty. Sheertai plundered all the way and continued to go west to Huanglan Town.

There is still no one in Huanglan Town. This time, Sheltai has a bad premonition.

The food stolen from the village was quickly eaten up and continued to walk westward. Even the village was empty, and the soldiers began to make a living by hunting and wild vegetables.

Next is Skylark Town, which is still empty as before.

Going west to the Skylark Town, Sertai is a little hesitant because Grey Fish Town is a holy place for the God-Punisher.

According to the rumors created by Manda, Roman Wilkins conquered several towns and led refugees to conquer Parrot City. He was then repelled by Crach Monchik in the battle with Turbulent City, and then disappeared.

Sheltai naturally didn't know that this was a lie made up by Manda. Like most people, he believed that Roman Wilkins was still in Greyfish Town.

Although he didn't care about Roman Wilkins, the grassroots hero, he didn't want to offend Barkern for this, after all, this was a sacred place chosen by the Archbishop.

But he had no more choice now. The army was out of food and the soldiers were on the verge of collapse.

"First go to Roman Wilkins to negotiate and borrow some food from him. If he refuses, we can only use force."

Sheltai sent an envoy to Greyfish Town, but he didn't expect that Greyfish Town was exactly the same as the previous towns, and the town was still empty.

At the same time, Sheltai received some news that since the beginning of the war, the enemy troops who had been elusive suddenly appeared.

Breton discovered the Leo's troops. This time it was not a scam, it was really discovered.

Sheltai was not happy at all when he received the news. Years of experience on the battlefield made him realize that he had made a mistake. He got into a trap, a trap he could never have imagined.

The southwest is no longer weak, nor is it the past loose sand. From Parrot City to Gray Fish Town, each town cooperates with each other and sets up a perfect trap, forcing Sheltai to come in.

Now that the enemy has appeared, it proves that they are going to close the net. Going further west of Grey Fish Town is Qixing Mountain, which is Monchik's territory, and a fierce battle is coming.

"Enter Grey Fish Town first, let the soldiers rest for a while and eat something." Although he realized that he had made a mistake, Sheltai was still confident in the war. He had already prepared to fight until Hei Shui City. It would be fine to fight a war first in Qixing Mountain.

Breton said in a difficult face: "Sir, we have nothing to eat."

"There are all mountains here, and the cavalry are useless. Let them kill some of the war horses, give the soldiers a full meal, and then search around to see if there are any villages."

The army came to Gray Fish Town. They thought it was really empty, but they found one person in a house, only one person.

They thought the man was dead, but found that he was just in a coma.

When she saw this person, Sheltai smiled.

"It seems we don't have to fight anymore. Send an envoy to talk to the enemy generals."

...

The Lion Girl followed Shertai all the way to Gray Fish Town. She adopted Roma's suggestion and notified the villages and towns along the way in advance, so that everyone could retreat to Qixing Mountain.

As for the part of the enemy troops left behind in the main traffic road, the Lion Girl ignored them. They wanted to trap Ziges on the Crispy Rock Mountain, but they didn't know that Manu had opened up a new road among the mountains. Their grain transport route did not have to pass through that important traffic road. When the enemy troops left behind there were about to starve to death, Ziges would naturally go down the mountain to collect them.

It is indeed time to close the net, and the Leo woman has contacted the poet. She asked the soldiers to kill Sheltai on both sides with her.

The trap is not a forceful fight, but a trapped Shertai in Grayfish Town. As long as he dares to leave the town, he will beat him to death. If he stays in the town, he will wait to starve to death.

The Leo woman admires Roma's tactics very much: "I heard that you are a brave general, but I didn't expect your tactics to be so vicious."

Roma gestured to sign language: On the battlefield, if I rely solely on courage, I will not be able to live today.

This tactic is almost perfect, and unless you surrender, Schertai will undoubtedly die.

Unexpectedly, the messenger came to the door that afternoon, which surprised the Leo woman: "Surrendered so quickly? It is said that this great man is very brave, and it seems that the rumors are really unreliable."

The messenger read out the handwritten letter from Grand Duke Sertai in front of the Lion Women. He did not come to surrender, but to persuade the surrender. He ordered the Leo to put down his weapons immediately in the name of Grand Duke.

The Leo girl did not get angry. She has improved a lot over the years after following Manda.

She asked the messenger politely: "Have you finished speaking?"

The messenger suppressed his fear and replied, "The Grand Duke said so much in his letter."

The Leo woman smiled and said, "I am a little lazy in my hands and don't like writing very much. I cut off your ears and nose as a response to the Grand Duke. Do you think this is considered sincere?"

The two soldiers were about to hold the messenger down, but suddenly they saw the messenger take out something and shouted, "Don't do anything random!"

He took out a robe, which the Leo woman recognized, especially the brooch on it.

That was Manda's wing brooch.

"He is in our hands," said the messenger, holding his robe, "you must surrender immediately!"
