"Commander, you can see the fortress." Samuel, riding on the side of the carriage, shouted into the carriage

As soon as Samuel's voice fell, Raymond, who was driving for Su Cheng, also answered: "I see not only the fortress, but also someone waiting outside the Great Wall to meet us. It's probably the deputy commander and Gary. "

"To the fortress?" Su Cheng raised his eyebrows, then opened the window curtain of the carriage and looked out.

As Raymond and Samuel said, the Avalon fortress can be seen from the horizon.

At the same time, you can also see the black spots outside Avalon's Great Wall - the people who came to welcome them back.

After several days of trekking, Su Cheng and others finally returned to Avalon fortress.

Different from leaving Avalon fortress, Raymond and Samuel are more likely to return to Avalon fortress this time

Because neither Carol nor Eliza could drive, Su Cheng was driving when they left Avalon fortress.

When returning to Avalon fortress, there were two more people who could help Su Cheng drive because of Samuel and Raymond.

With these two more people who can help Su Cheng drive, Su Cheng's return trip is much easier.

At this time, Raymond was helping Su Cheng drive. Eliza rode Raymond's three horses to guard the left of the carriage, while Samuel guarded the right of the carriage.

"To be honest, I don't want to go back to the fortress." Su Cheng said to Ramon, who was driving in a half joking tone, "as soon as I get back to the fortress, I'll start dealing with endless military affairs. I really hope Willie can help me all the time."

"Please let the deputy head go." On weekdays, Raymond, who always has a stiff face, also rarely tilted his mouth slightly and showed a faint smile, "if you do so, he would be too poor for the deputy commander."

……

……

Su Cheng and others soon approached the man who was waiting outside the Great Wall to meet them.

Sure enough, it was Willie, Gary and all the knights in the fortress who stood outside the Great Wall to meet Su Cheng and others.

Yesterday, Su Cheng and others used carrier pigeons to send a message to Avalon fortress to inform Willie that they should return to the fortress at about 15 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.

So -- Su Cheng was not surprised or surprised that Willie and others had calculated the time to wait and meet them here.

"Although I've only been away for a few days, I always feel like I've been away for a long time." Su Cheng stepped out of the carriage and walked to Willie, smiling and continuing to greet Willie:

"These innocent are hard work for you. It's hard for you to come to meet me. "

Su Cheng said the first half of his sentence to Willie, and the second half to everyone who came to meet them, including Willie.

"Captain, where is it?" Willie smiled and humbly, "sharing your worries for the head is my job as a deputy head."

"But to be honest, I'm actually going to go back to the fortress a few days later. Let you help me work a few more days." Su Cheng said in a half joking tone, "it's really troublesome to deal with these endless military affairs."

However, just then, just as Su Cheng's voice fell and before Willie could reply, a familiar old voice full of banter came out from the crowd behind Willie:

"You can't do that, your excellency. If you do so, you may be impeached. "

"Mr Humphrey?!" Su Cheng couldn't help exclaiming.

Humphrey, the governor of the Northern Territory, who is not lower than Su Cheng in terms of status and higher in terms of popularity and qualifications than Su Cheng, is mixing behind Willie and following Willie to meet Su Cheng's knights.

Because Humphrey was mixed in the middle of the crowd, and Su Chenggang's attention was basically focused on Willie standing in the front, he was not aware of Humphrey's existence.

"Mr Humphrey." Su Cheng said while saluting Humphrey, "Why are you here?"

"I'm standing here, of course, to pick you up with your subordinates." Humphrey replied in a playful tone.

"Er..." Su Cheng smiled awkwardly. "Sorry, I didn't ask clearly just now. What I want to ask is - why are you here in Avalon fortress."

Humphrey's base camp is in Baidi City, while Su Cheng's base camp is in Avalon fortress. Unless something special happens, Humphrey, who is also a busy man with Su Cheng, won't come to Avalon fortress so leisurely.

Of course - unless there are special circumstances.

Humphrey, who heard Su Cheng's question, slightly restrained his smile and became a little serious.

"I actually came to the fortress two days ago. I thought you would return to the fortress two days ago, but I didn't expect that you would encounter horse thieves and had to postpone your return. "

"After learning that you were going to postpone the time to come back, I didn't bother to turn back to Baidi city. I just stayed here for two days, waiting for you to come back."

"I came to the fortress this time to discuss something important with you."

"Big event?" Su Cheng looked puzzled

……

……

British Empire, northern border, Avalon fortress.

"Well, Mr Humphrey, it's just you and me here. No one can hear you and me."

Su Cheng and Humphrey were in a secret room in Avalon fortress.

There was no one in the room except the two of them.

At the same time, before entering the room, Su Cheng specifically told his subordinates not to let anyone near the room.

The room they are now in is completely secret. There will never be a third person who can hear their conversation.

"... sir, please take a look at this first."

After that, Humphrey took out two large wads of paper from an ordinary cloth bag in his hand.

It's two big documents.

Of the two documents, one says "three Knights parade plan", while the other says "saromanda battle".

The titles of the two documents attracted Su Cheng's attention.

But in comparison, it was the [saromanda battle] that attracted Su Cheng's eyes and attention.

Su Cheng took the lead in picking up the document that said [saromanda battle], and then began to read it quickly.

After reading the document quickly, Su Cheng uttered a slight groan of pain.

"After a long time of peace, will war start again... Is this a battle with barbarians..." Su Cheng said in a deep voice.

"The central government is still considering whether to have an all-out war with shanman." Humphrey answered, "but I think this battle is basically going to pass. After all, even the battle code has been set. This all-round war against shanman is named sharomanda."

"On this document, I was named as the commander-in-chief of the battle, and the troops participating in the war were also designated as the Michael knights." Su Cheng shook the document in his hand, "what's still under consideration... The battle code is set and the candidate for the commander-in-chief is also set. It's already decided to start the battle!"

Shanman is a general name for the barbarians living in the ligasos mountains in the west of the north.

The level of civilization of the mountain barbarians is extremely low. They are still in the foolish tribal civilization and live a backward life of hunting, fire and farming.

"... I don't understand." Su Cheng said in a deep voice, "why should we provoke shanman without anything? What good is it to us to capture shanman's territory? Are there any very valuable resources on the ligasos mountains? This is a meaningless war! "

The document did not say what the purpose and significance of the operation was.

It only stated that a war of Conquest against the mountain barbarians would be launched, and that Su Cheng would be the commander-in-chief of the battle and the Michael knights would participate in the battle.

"... I don't understand." Humphrey sighed helplessly.

Hearing Humphrey's sigh, Su Cheng, whose face became more ugly, turned his eyes and projected his eyes back on the documents in his hand.

Looking at the big [saromanda battle] on this document, his face is full of complexity.
