Long-range ballistae and trebuchets fired rows of stone projectiles at a small number of soldiers on the harbor. After confirming that there were no enemies, the small and medium-sized light warships Kamikaze Express and Fengyun took the lead in squeezing into the small port with an area of ??one kilometer.
"Hey! There's no one there!"
"There can't be any conspiracy!"
"It doesn't matter what conspiracy or the like, in short, if no one attacks us, we will go up quickly."
"Yes! I think those soldiers who defended the city must have been scared away by our huge fleet."
¡¡
The crew members of Elantra's vanguard landing fleet were surprised and entered the port with swords and swords. At the same time, Bulati had already prepared mules, horses and baggage with most of the soldiers of the Second Army and was waiting in the square for those on duty to return.
Rana, the centurion of the regiment who landed on the shore first, waved his hand decisively and shouted: "Brothers, follow me! They must be burning supplies and preparing to retreat. We must stop them."
"Go!"
"Go!"
¡¡
After Rafa landed, Ramsay and others also felt that it made sense, and quickly rushed towards the port and town with more than 200 pioneers.
Brat, who was always paying attention to the situation on the shore, quickly put down his bamboo telescope and said quickly: "How many people have we returned now?"
The adjutant looked at the scene and quickly reported: "Report to the centurion, we have gathered more than 400 people here. Many security militiamen and some city defense officials have not arrived. We still have more than 30 soldiers from the Second Army and one squadron. The militiamen who were monitoring those operations did not return."
"It's too late." Brati waved his hand quickly and ordered: "Let's go first! If you don't have time to burn, don't burn it, otherwise you won't be able to leave later."
"yes!"
"The whole army sets off!"
"The whole army sets off!"
¡¡
The officials, soldiers, and militiamen who were waiting anxiously all brightened their eyes, pulled their mules and horses, and the carriage headed toward the northwest of Shenmu City.
Lana led the vanguard troops into the port and the town. Along the way, he looked at the militiamen who were still setting fire and looting. His eyes froze and he shouted coldly: "The 1st and 2nd Infantry Brigades are coming with me. The 3rd and 4th Infantry Brigades are coming with you." Maintain law and order, organize manpower to extinguish the flames, and be sure not to allow more food, housing and other resources to be lost."
"yes!"
"yes!"
¡¡
Rana watched the infantry group behind him split into two, and continued to run with the light infantry towards the town 600 meters away.
"Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
"Hurry up and retreat!"
"I saw them."
¡¡
The last large group of retreating convoys saw the advancing Elantra Pioneer Rana and others, and Rana also saw each other and rushed over quickly.
"Brothers, come with me! Stop them."
"Go!"
"Go!"
The Elantra Pioneer Hundreds were refreshed and quickly rushed towards the retreating team with their shields in hand.
"quick!"
"quick!"
"We don't want any of these things, it's more important to escape."
"Captain, these coins and property were what we managed to grab when we retreated just now. Now we have to give up so many things."
"You want money rather than your life, why are you so wordy? I don't care about you, I'll run away first." The middle-aged captain looked at the verbose soldier and was speechless for a moment. He quickly patted the horse's butt and ran away into the distance.
"Ah! Captain, wait for me!" Several soldiers looked at the captain who left first and the Elantra vanguard force, which was approaching quickly five meters away, and immediately ran towards the direction of Shenmu City.
At this time, more and more Hailin Town citizens woke up. Seeing that the troops coming from a distance were not like pirates and were well-disciplined, attacking the nobles and the second legion of the Brant family who oppressed them, people were immediately indignant. Many women and young people ran out of the houses and faced the robberies of the second legion. The militia soldiers of the Second Legion captured him.
"They are not pirates, they are people from the Elante Islands as rumored. Brothers and sisters-in-law are dating each other. They are here to help us fight against the bandits who oppress us. Folks, let's take back our things together."
"yes! "
"Take our stuff back."
¡¡
Hundreds of young men, women, and old men rushed towards the lagging infantry of the Second Army with wooden sticks, shovels, and kitchen knives. More than thirty mules and horses that did not move away were also intercepted by the crowd. The vanguard was immediately overjoyed, and Rana quickly led the infantry to rush forward and intercept the last thirty or so soldiers.
"There are people in front of them. Brothers, let's continue to pursue them." Rana was not satisfied after stopping dozens of people. He looked into the distance at the carriages, mules and horses advancing at normal speed 800 meters away, and gave the order again seriously. .
A young vanguard captain gasped and said: "Commander Centurion, brothers, we just got off the boat and our physical strength is only 70% of normal. We ran for a while and now we are all exhausted. We have no horses. We are pursuing. The brothers will not have the strength to fight."
"Damn, we are tired, but the enemy is more afraid than us. They are running away, and their speed is very slow. As long as we pursue them with many people, they will collapse without losing their supplies, and we will gain more. property." Rana looked at the team leader and the gasping crowd, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, the time has come to establish meritorious deeds without bloodshed. As long as we catch up with those cowards, they will abandon the materials in their hands. , escape by yourself, and we can gain wealth and glory."
"As long as you follow me, I will give the baron some advice and show you your merit. Are you willing?"
"Go!"
"Go!"
¡¡
When the Elantra vanguard soldiers heard that they had to bleed to death in order to gain wealth and merit, their minds suddenly became frantic. Regardless of their physical fatigue, they once again formed a group and rushed towards Bulat's retreating team.
Within more than 20 minutes, Bratt and others gathered more than 50 war horses, more than 100 mortal horses, and 200 donkeys and mules to pull supplies and retreat toward Shenmu City. The grand procession was extended by 1 kilometer.
At this time, Brati, who was in the middle, had heard the sound of chasing behind him and looked behind him in panic.
"Lord Bulati, don't worry. They are only chasing one or two hundred people. We can retreat safely as long as we disperse them." The adjutant of the harbor guard chief looked at the people behind and suggested to Bulati indifferently. road.
"Hit your sister! I told you not to carry those troublesome salutes, but you didn't listen to me. Now they are catching up. If each of us only brings our own weapons and equipment and three days of dry food, then I have run one kilometer longer than I am now." Brati glared at the adjutant and said depressedly.
"I order that all salutes except weapons and rations should be discarded immediately, and the whole army should march forward lightly, otherwise you will bear the consequences." Bulati looked at the people behind him coldly, and quickly rode his horse towards the front.
"Why is this? Why do you do this, my wealth!" Many soldiers listened to Brati's order in confusion and looked at the Elant vanguard force getting closer and closer behind them. Many soldiers and militiamen wisely abandoned their salutes and ran towards the front of the road.
