Chapter 556: Northwest Road (2)


Well, regardless of whether this story was really believed by the other party, anyway, the officer personally came to the martial arts hall that night to meet Lan Lan, and confirmed that Lan Lan was just a young Roland girl and not a mixed race. [ Under the affection of the master and apprentice and the temptation of a few hundred gold coins, it would not be much harm to bring a young girl, so he agreed to it.

The next night, Lan Lan followed the officer from the martial arts hall to the dock area, hiding in a warehouse and waiting until midnight.

Finally, with the help of the officers, he hid in an empty oak barrel, which turned out to be filled with vegetable oil, and had a very unpleasant smell.

However, this little ordeal is naturally nothing to Lan Lan, who has experienced a hellish test in the Forsaken Continent.

Successfully hiding in a wooden barrel, he was carried onto the ship and into the hold.

The officer quickly slipped into the hold again.

He was still kind and brought Lan Lan a bag of food, which was fried dry food for the march, and a bag of water.

"You just hide in the cabin, don't go out, I'll find a way to sneak in and bring you food and water once a day.

Other times, if a soldier comes in to check on you, you want to hide" The officer warned very seriously: "I helped you, but I took a big risk if you were discovered."

"Don't worry, I'll hide it carefully."

Lan Lan looked at the officer and said in a deep voice, "Even if I am discovered, I will not confess to you."

I'd say I slipped on the boat myself. ” "Well, be careful.

The ship will leave before dawn, and if you feel dizzy, bear with it," the officer said, and then turned and walked out of the cabin.

Lan Lan sat in the corner of the cabin, took a few sips of water, and then closed her eyes to rest.

She didn't sleep, but slowly counted the time in her heart.

Follow the boat ride.

The ship will arrive upstream of the Lancang Canal in eight days, dock at a pier near Lengquan Pass, and unloaded cargo will be transported to the war zone by land.

And when unloading by ship, it will definitely be chaotic, and you can take the opportunity to slip away when the time comes.

That's fine.

What makes Lan Lan especially important is that this officer has revealed to himself some of the real battle situation in the northwest at present.

These are all things that the ordinary people outside don't know.

The news from within the military is naturally more true and credible than the rumors on the market.

Of course, the real secret, these middle- and lower-class officers and soldiers will naturally not know about it.

According to the officer's disclosure, the current war situation in the northwest is quite optimistic.

The steppe people have crossed the territory of the Tulip family, and there has been no large-scale battle with the Tulip family during this period, as for why.

The people below don't know either.

There is a rumor circulating within the army that Duke Tulip is organizing an army to attack the back of the steppe people.

Well, that's a bit of nonsense.

However, the more credible news is that the steppe people have invaded the province of Nulin and have engaged in fierce battles with the army of General Panin, who is based in the province of Nulin.

General Panin once achieved a brilliant victory on the frontal battlefield, taking advantage of an ambush battle in the river valley plains to annihilate the army of tens of thousands of steppe people.

However, because he was always inferior in terms of troops, General Panin was unable to extend the victory.

After defeating the enemy, he could only choose a strategic retreat, relying on several large cities such as Mulan City to form a defensive line.

It is currently at the stage of strategic defense.

The latest news is that the 100,000 iron cavalry of the steppe people have surrounded Mulan City, and after the onslaught is overcome, they have begun to divide their troops to plunder and harass everywhere.

And then there is one most important news.

It's what really moves Lanlan That's Darling Chen This guy has actually become a nobleman of the empire and has been knighted as the baron of Rova City.

He was in the northwest, and he had a territory in the northwest.

There is also an army that is said to be good in combat, but I heard that the number is a little smaller.

The place where Darling Chan is located is very delicate, this guy is actually in the Northwest Fortress From the map, the current situation is that the army of Darling Chan and the steppe people is separated by the defense line of Panin.

So for the time being, Darling Chen's territory is still safe.

It's just that Damn, how did he run to the Northwest Fortress Lan Lan had to start thinking about new questions.

When you go to the northwest by yourself, whether you go to Tulip's house first or meet Darling Chan first After all, the commission of the cold night was solemnly accepted.

Lan Lan sat in the cabin for a long time, thinking about the time in her heart.

But when it was almost dawn, the boat did not leave on time.

Just when Lan Lan was anxious, suddenly her eyes opened, and she quickly touched the door of the cabin, and looked out through the gap in the door panel.

There was a jumble of dense footsteps on the deck of the ship, along with some majestic shouting.

A chaotic assembly began on the deck, and all the soldiers on board were gathered on the deck.

Among them was the officer who helped him get on board.

Obviously, a group of people wearing another type of military uniform came on board, and these people were obviously not low.

One of the men took out a warrant and made a very arrogant announcement: "This boat has been requisitioned, and now according to the order, everyone will disembark, and your superiors will make new arrangements for you, and this boat will be used by us." and arrange for manpower to unload all the cargo on the ship immediately."

When Lan Lan heard this, her heart jumped violently.

The officer's face was also ugly, and he tried to protest: "But sir, this is the material to be transported to the Northwest Front, and the order has been given the day before yesterday, we" "Shut up, that's not what you're supposed to ask," the officer with the warrant said coldly, "Execute the order" "But the cargo compartment is already full, and if you have to unload it all, I'm afraid" "You don't have enough manpower, I can ask our people to help faster, we have more important military orders, if it's delayed, you can't afford it" The man with the command said coldly.

"The officer was sweating profusely.

But at this moment, another person on the deck seemed to come up, and a random voice familiar to Lan Lan came over.

"Is there any trouble, what's going on?"

Lan Lan's heart sank fiercely This sound is ancient music "My lord, they said that the ship was fully loaded, and it would be delayed to unload the cargo."

When the officer with the warrant faced Gu Le, his attitude was immediately much more respectful.

Gu Le walked up in a very thin uniform.

His face was still a little pale, and it seemed that his internal injuries had not yet healed, but it seemed that he was able to move.

"Oh is that" Gu Le frowned: "Then are there any other ships?"

"Unfortunately, tonight's transports are all fully loaded."

Gu Le's subordinates shook their heads: "My lord, if it's too late to unload, just let them help throw the goods into the river first, our task is important." ” Gu Le seemed to smile, glanced at his subordinates, and said lightly: "Forget the goods, there is no need to unload them, anyway, we are also temporarily requisitioned, so don't embarrass these logistics and transportation colleagues."

Lest it be spread that our internal guard forces are too domineering. ” As he spoke, Gu Le smiled and looked at the officer who helped Lan Lan get on the boat: "Is this boat in charge of you, what is your name?"

"Boggins, sir, my name is Bogginsnate."

The officer's voice trembled a little.

He recognized the epaulettes on Gu Le's body, which was the rank of general Thinking of the identity of the other party's internal guard force, it is a special group under the establishment of the Imperial Forest Army, a privileged department in the army that is directly under the command of the emperor and has no right to intervene even in the military department And looking at the rank of the other party's general, then the identity of the middle-aged general in front of him is almost ready to be revealed Emperor Shiloh's number one confidant, the Minister of the Interior, Gu Le "Alright, Perkins."

Gu Le waved his hand casually: "The goods don't need to be unloaded, I can take your boat, you can send these goods to Lengquan Pass as usual, anyway, I also got off the ship at Lengquan Pass." ” "However, if the Lord is fully loaded, the speed of the ship will be very slow, and I am afraid that it will be," said the man under Gu Le.

Gu Le smiled: "It's not much worse than this little bit of time."

So be it.

By the way, the people who restrain us are polite.

These brothers who transported supplies to the front-line soldiers have worked hard, don't show your teeth too much, understand?"

"Yes" "Alright, take me to the captain's quarters to rest.

Set sail as soon as possible.

Gu Le said, and walked straight towards the ship, and when he walked past the door of the warehouse, he suddenly stopped, and he seemed to glance at the door of the warehouse very casually.

At this moment, Lan Lan's heart was raised, and there was almost only such a layer of door between him and Gu Le She subconsciously even held her breath.

"What kind of goods is this ship loading?"

asked Gu Le as if very casually.

"My lord, it's loaded with some tung oil and military rations."

Boggins replied cautiously.

"Oh no weapons" "A few days later, there was a batch of supplies, and I heard that it was all weapons."

Boggins shook his head: "I didn't get an order, though. ” "I heard about it in a few days" Gu Le seemed to sneer, he put his hands behind his back, as if he sighed softly: "Paning is not short of food, the war situation is so tense, I heard that he has fought several battles to defend the city, and the most lacking should be the arrow crossbow, that guy in Aker, who is in charge of the military department, is still playing his own careful thinking at this time." ” These words are said in his capacity But Boggins beside him, this ant-like little officer, dared to interject just accidentally heard it, and his face turned pale with fright.

"Well, don't be afraid, I'm not a tiger, and I don't eat people.

Go do your thing, Perkins.

Gu Le shook his head and walked to the captain's room.
