Reckless Through The New World

Chapter 214: coincidence of the night

The "post station" is a new thing in the Western Continent. Although a long time ago, the senior sages who have been to the East recorded the post station system in the ancient country of the East, but on the Western Continent, the weak governance and the relative weakness of the country made this kind of There is no chance of something to strengthen the central response capability.

It was not until a few years ago that the new king of Thrace, Richard, came to the throne. This man with brilliant blonde hair and a majestic appearance, roaring like a lion, overwhelmed the public opinion and established more than a thousand inns all over the kingdom. It opened a new page in the history of the West Land.

Posts are built at the head of each village. They are not only hotels, but also in charge of collecting information. The people who manage the inn are all veterans. They have seen the world and will not be easily fooled. Moreover, the salaries are paid directly by the kingdom, and their loyalty is also worthy of recognition. More than a thousand inns are scattered in the villages of Thrace, which means that His Majesty has placed spies who are responsible for collecting intelligence in these more than a thousand villages - and the lords of various places have not dared to attack them, so they can only limit as much as possible. their actions.

In order to accomplish this, King Richard spent a lot of thought and paid a great price. This was one of the main causes of the struggle between the Reformers and the Old School in the Kingdom of Thrace.

The inn where the pandas live is not big, with three floors up and down. On the ground floor are warehouses and stables—because it does not run a restaurant business, so there is no hall; the second floor is a large shop, for soldiers, servants and the like; the third floor is a single room for people with status.

The head and deputy head of the messenger group, Panda, and several knights naturally lived on the third floor.

Living high, it is naturally clearer to hear distant sounds, so when there is noise on the road in the distance, the panda hears it immediately.

He rushed to the window, opened it, and saw a fire dragon meandering in the night, but it was hundreds of soldiers with torches, led by a knight, on their way through the night.

(Strange! What's the hurry?)

It is rare for the army to rush the road at night because it is dangerous. Most soldiers do not have night vision ability. Even if they have torches, they can't see very far. They can only follow the road under their feet and follow the people in front, like a headless fly. The army at this time is extremely fragile, and it is not surprising that it may become a mess or even collapse if it is attacked a little bit.

In the history of war in this world, there have been incidents where two warriors led a dozen villagers and attacked thousands of soldiers who were on their way at night, beating them to pieces. Taking history as a mirror, the officers of later generations would never consider marching at night unless absolutely necessary.

So, what exactly happened as a last resort?

Panda thought for a while, knocked on James' door, woke him up from a deep sleep, and beckoned him to ask him what happened.

"The nearby village is threatened by bandits." The army's marching speed was extremely slow, and it stopped and went very cautiously. When they arrived at the entrance of the village, the army happened to arrive at the entrance of the village.

Facing James who came out of the inn, the knight had no doubts at all, and directly told them the goal of the trip.

"Bandits?" Panda was taken aback for a moment, "The country of Thrace is so powerful, and there are bandits too?"

The knight looked at him with the eyes of the mentally retarded: "No matter how powerful a country is, there are bandits, mobs, gangsters, evil adventurers, fallen people who make deals with the dark forces... not to mention some monsters themselves. Will build a cottage or something."

Panda also woke up, knowing that he asked a silly question, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Where are those bandits?"

"The nearby village of Domremi," the knight replied. "According to the current marching speed, it is estimated that we will arrive tomorrow morning."

"Noon tomorrow?!" Panda's eyes widened, "Is it too late?"

The knight smiled bitterly and did not answer.

Obviously, it's definitely not too late.

"What's going on?" James asked. "How did you know the bandits were coming?"

"Domremi has no post station. Their village chief went to the lord's castle to report the incident, and then we set off as a group." The knight replied, "The village chief came... It should be about three or four o'clock this afternoon. ."

Panda did the math. The village of Domremi should be about half a day's journey away. The village chief leaves in the morning and arrives in the evening. The lord's army may have set off after dinner, and it is estimated that they will arrive tomorrow morning... It cannot be said that they are slow, but obviously, such a speed is too late.

At this moment, he saw Wang Tuhao speak very rarely in the chat channel.

[Xu Xiansen next door to you: Damn, I actually found a pirate's cottage in the eastern border of the Kingdom of Thrace. This cottage looks quite historical, I'm afraid there are good things. 】

[Horus: Where exactly? coordinate! 】

[Xu Xiansen next door to you: Do you also want to join in the fun? 】

[Horus: Yes, I haven’t been able to make a decent business recently. Didn't Panda say he went to the capital of Thrace with the messenger group of Mulandana? I checked the map and planned to go to him to see if there was anything fun to join. Now I am in a small village called Piselle, and I will meet him tomorrow. 】

[Panda: I'm in Maxai Village. If nothing else happens, we can probably meet tomorrow. 】

[Xu Xiansen next door to you: What a coincidence! The cottage I found is nearby. To the north from Piselle, there is a small village called Domremi. I saw this cottage on the mountain north of the village. 】

[Horus: Damn it! so close? ! I'm leaving now! wait for me! Are you going with panda? 】

[Panda: ...It's a coincidence, well, I'm going too, give me the coordinates, I'll be there soon. 】

Of course, James and the knight couldn't see their conversation in the chat channel. The two of them saw the panda for a moment, then smiled and said to them, "Then... in which direction is Domremi Village?"

The knight was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Follow the road to the northwest, and then go south to Gele Village, it's not too far."

Panda nodded, then walked to the stable, and patted Qinglong, who was sleeping on his stomach with no image: "Man, we have a battle to fight."

Qinglong immediately opened his eyes and jumped up, his face full of excitement.

Obviously, the recent life of doing nothing has made it very boring. In layman's terms, it is itching.

James also came over and said with a smile: "The opponents are some bandits, and Qinglong is afraid that he can eat some blood this time."

Qinglong scoffed, it is a very stylish monster, the prey with insufficient vitality is not in its recipe at all.

The panda turned on its horse, and the blue dragon made a long neigh, which woke up all the people who were sleeping, and then the blue-toothed horse king walked away with the sound of hoofs and laughter, and soon disappeared together with the knight on his back. in the darkness.

The knight was stunned and asked, "He... is he going to die?"

"Send to death?" James looked at the other party with some amusing, "If he's here to send death, just don't bother with the hundreds of you..."

"What's the meaning?"

"If there is a real fight, you and your team... I'm afraid they won't even be able to fight his horse."
