Chapter 663: Arrive at Bilin City [Dabro]

Bilin Village, near the suburbs.

"It's finally... it's here..."

Looking at the city wall that had already caught my eye, Earl Kohler breathed a long sigh-

It was like a student who finally finished his homework on the last night of the long holiday.

Behind him were 15,000 people who were the vanguard of the Central Army - but at this moment, their morale was absolutely no longer high.

Whether it is soldiers or war horses, the legs and armor are dirty and full of muddy ideas at this moment;

The soles and hooves were covered with thick layers of mud, and it was very difficult to lift the leg every time.

The originally arrogant team, no one has the energy to show off his arrogant look at this moment.

The most important thing is that it is the third day now; the journey that could be completed in less than one day was delayed for two days.

After solving the rabbit's problem, the vanguard team continued to move towards Bilin City;

However, after they left the grassland and entered the forest area, they found that something was wrong with the road—

The originally flat road was destroyed and bumpy, with the deepest part reaching the knees;

It's okay to have a pothole, but it's not raining, but the road is full of puddles and mud; because the mud and water are turbid, it's impossible to see the depth, so the "deepest to the knee" was measured by an unlucky soldier with his legs.

In such a situation, it would be hard enough to allow infantry passage;

However, there are cavalry, carriages, and siege equipment in the team - if the latter two are on this road, they will probably be reimbursed in advance.

It is definitely not possible to move forward directly, so Kohler had to let the team stop for the time being;

On the one hand, he sent scouts to investigate the source of water on these roads; on the other hand, he ordered engineers to hurry up and repair the road;

The most important thing is that you have to beg those magicians to help - otherwise how long will it take to keep such a long road?

At the beginning, the magicians refused to say anything; they believed that this approach was to put magic into war, a betrayal of the iron law. Even if the knife was placed on their necks, they would never be the same as those like Mapoloshi who wanted to use magic in war!

Earl Kohler was so angry that he was almost crazy: Don’t you know how important speed is to the Pioneer?

Take down Bilin City as soon as possible and you can become an official; if the follow-up troops arrive, you are still building roads...

It is all too light to be looked down upon by other nobles; what should Duke Myrones do to settle the accounts afterwards?

Finally, it was the problem that Dabro solved before he took action. First, let the nobles explain to those nobles that it is possible to use magic indirectly in the war: such as voice transmission magic and anti-demon armor on the nobles, these are all precedents;

Then, Dabro said that the mud on the road was caused by Mapoloshi - he first destroyed the road and then poured water, and wanted to transfer hatred to the enemy;

But the magicians were not stupid; they all said that they had sensed the situation on the road surface without any magical reaction - that is to say, the water did not come from Roche's magic;

Fortunately, Dabro reacted quickly: Although the situation on this road is not magic, is there no magic in the process of attracting water?

The scout soon came to the situation: the nearby stream was forced to divert the road and washed away the road, so the mud in front of him became like this.

Dabro immediately took advantage of the situation and said that the diverted stream was only possible by magic, which made the old-fashioned old men ignite their anger.

Then, Dabro tactfully reminded that you can end this war earlier so that you can return to the Magic Academy to continue your research sooner;

And if you perform well in the war and help a lot, you will definitely increase your research funding.

Although these old men are not very interested in money, power and enjoyment, they can be regarded as lifeblood for research materials;

After a verbal battle, the old men finally agreed to help repair the road - but they were not Luo Xi after all. Even if they took turns to fight, they could only repair some of the road surface to the point where the siege equipment could barely pass through;

After a long time of struggle, the vanguard team finally continued to move forward in a wailing manner.

Since there are only siege machinery and carriages, the cavalry can walk on the restoration road in the middle, the soldiers on both sides complained;

Even if the supply of streams is cut off, the muddy roads still require several times the effort they usually have to lift them up.

The old men on the carriage were even more miserable: they could not repair the road surface flat enough in a short period of time;

The wheels were pounding in the pit and the sound of mourning never stopped. If they were so violent, they would still scream;

Of course, these accounts must not be counted only on Roche's head, and Kohler became one of their disgusting objects - he was called to the carriage from time to time, and heard the old man complain, sometimes more than just complain;

After all, the magicians have the confidence this time: we have the final say whether to move forward or not!

If you don’t let us rest, we will rest by ourselves! Anyway, you can’t leave!

In desperation, Kohler could only persuade the old men respectfully over and over again, saying good things and laying out the prospects. Finally, he arrived at the suburbs of Bilin Village on the afternoon of the third day;

Dabro was not panicked at all, after all... what can you do to others when you arrive?

"When I catch that witch, I have to torture her..." Recalling the hardships along the way, Kohler gritted his teeth in anger: "I want to pull out her nails! Pull half of her hair! Then let her wear dirty and smelly clothes of the untouchables! Then, I want..."

"Mr. Kohler, as far as I know... Princess Mapoloshi has a beauty that everyone can praise;" said a nobleman with a good relationship with Kohler, "Will you really do it then?"

"Ha, can't you do it?" Kohler laughed proudly, "Let me tell you! I have seen so many beauties! Before we inherited the Earl's Corps, we have traveled to all the restaurants in the entire territory! I have visited many famous cities in the middle, and I have also been to!"

"Well, let alone Princess Mapoloshi, those people are incomparable to girls from ordinary noble families, are they?" The noble shook his head;

"You haven't been there, don't know!" Kohler waved his hand, "Let me tell you, right in my hometown, there is a dancer nicknamed "Salute Girl". Because the first time I saw her dancing the "Salute Salute" no one did not drool—"

Dabro, who was listening on the other side, swallowed.

Of course, it is not because of Kohler's barren ability to describe, but because of the dishes that come into contact with...

For Dabro, it is better to observe the walls than to brag about it with Kohler;

"Mr. Kohler, Princess Mapoloshi seems to have already climbed the city tower and is waiting for us." Dabro signaled Kohler to look at the city wall;

"Ha," Kohler raised his head disdainfully, "What's the matter...uh..."

Dabro suddenly felt a little worried about whether he would keep this dull position and fall off the horse.
