Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 459 Secret Mission
Under Stannis's initiative, all the lords of Tanis put aside all their preconceived notions, gathered the troops in their territories and marched towards the Sarana Basin. They only had one belief, to repel the Kuroshio back to their mother's hometown!
As the king, Stannis is of course obliged to serve as the commander of the coalition forces. Now he has 3 troops under his command, and soon they will cross the pass and march towards Baili City, the core of the basin.

Stannis looked at this endless expeditionary army, which was the largest force he had ever possessed since he started the army, and then thought of the tragic years when he led dozens of peasant uncles to conquer the world, everything seemed like a dream, but he Without getting carried away by this, there is a fine line between victory and defeat.

"Help me call Jabote." Stannis yelled at Robert with a straight face. Now that he has become the commander-in-chief of the army, his every move is exposed to the eyes of countless people, and he can no longer be as peaceful as before. Robert giggled with an unserious expression on his face.

Of course, Robert also knew that he wanted to sell face to Stannis. As a descendant of the orthodox Golden Griffin, he still respectfully paid a knightly salute to the latter before leaving, and soon he found Jabotai.

"Tani Khan, who has the majesty of a lion and the bravery of a tiger, are you looking for me?"

As the only person who was called Khan in public, Stannis was obviously not used to such a title, he twitched a little, "Don't be so troublesome to call me, just teach me Your Majesty with others, I will hand over I have one thing for you, you have to help me do it absolutely, otherwise..."

Stannis seldom used military law to scare people, but this time he said that what he told Jabotai was absolutely important and could not be lost.

Zhe Botai adjusted the bow on his upper body and the boning scimitar on his waist, and finally faded away from his usual sheep-like gentle expression, replaced by a wolf-like fierceness.

"If I'm not mistaken, you want me to take my people to the front for scouting, but my scout troops have already been dispatched, which means that you didn't call me for ordinary scouting. Tell me, Big Khan thinks What do you want me to do?"

Stannis glanced at the eastern nomad approvingly. If everyone was as smart as him, then he wouldn't be vomited blood by the western barbarians under his command.

"That's right, I have dispatched all the scout troops just to prevent those black currents from ambushing us. From now on, it seems that the enemy still has nothing to do, but I came to you to let you complete one of the most important tasks. That is, you want to sneak into Baili City and find out for me what's going on there!"

His task really made Zhe Botai gasp. If someone else had knelt down and resigned in tears, because he went deep into the center of the entire Kuroshio, and it was still under the circumstances that no one had ever succeeded before. But the experience is more terrifying than sending to death, not everyone has the courage to put himself into the abyss to peek into the darkness.

If Jabotai refused to agree, Stannis would not blame him, but the Easterner just hesitated for a while before nodding and agreeing, "This hunt is much more interesting than I imagined, but I don't know, the Great Khan wants What to find in that ruined city?"

"A woman and a real enemy."

Jabotey nodded thoughtfully, beginning to understand why Stannis was so desperate.

"You can only go on this mission alone, and there is no backup. If you fail, you will not get any assistance." Stannis spread the most unfavorable situations in front of the Easterners one by one. Brave warriors will also be cowed by such hopeless predicaments, but any hesitation in this task can only lead to death.

And the man standing before Stannis is obviously the most courageous man.

"I understand profusely, but life is like an eagle soaring. Being able to hunt for the best hunters is what I want in my life. What's more, this experience can also add a touch to my travel notes. I Will bring you back the information you want."

With that, Jabotey set off, not even giving Stannis a chance to act for him.

After watching Wandongfang leave, Stannis turned his gaze to the horizon, which is the direction of Baili City, and it is also the stage where all this will end.

In the next few days, the coalition forces marched towards the target Baili City at a slow speed. Stannis deliberately slowed down the marching speed to prevent a sudden ambush, because they knew nothing about the scab monster's tactics, and the only way to get The only information is still those legends, these armies born in the dark can move quickly under the ground like ghosts and ghosts without making a sound.

Of course, Stannis scoffed at such rumors of coaxing children, but he was still extremely careful, especially at night, a bonfire must be raised every ten steps outside the army to prevent night raids.

In this way, after marching for two days, the coalition forces finally crossed the hilly area in the basin and successfully reached the central plain of the basin, and now everyone's tense nerves can finally relax a little bit.

However, in summer, unlike the scorching heat outside the basin, the interior of the basin even has a sense of coolness, and the plain covered with water networks adds a touch of poetic charm, which makes everyone, including Stannis, feel very happy. Joy, but this joyful mood disappeared after less than half a day.

"Your Majesty, the intelligence sent back from the front sentry says that they have finally arrived at the first town!" Advisor Romon hurried over to report the latest information to Stannis.

Stannis, who was washing his face by the stream, immediately became interested, and finally arrived at the first town in the basin, where he might be able to learn some important information.

"How, are there any survivors in the town?"

But Advisor Romon just shook his head helplessly. According to the intelligence brought back by the scouts, the place had been razed to the ground, and there was no sign of living people.

"Damn it, how could these dark tides spread so fast that even the towns in the fringe areas couldn't escape the poisonous hands." Even Robert, who never cared much about such things, couldn't help but sigh.

But Stannis insisted on going to explore the town himself, and it seemed that in contrast to this beautiful summer scene, they would be more dangerous with each step.

The next day, Stannis set off with his guards, including the army doctor Romney and the mercenary captain Batesmore, and the others went back to rectify the army horses and be ready at any time.
