"If we had Fort Trot, it would be a perfect victory.
"It is true that Duke Dimitri is struggling and preparing for a new ambush as the Tyranids failed to lure the northern army. Well, even so, this is still a victory for us."
"Tch, the Marquis of Tyron is old, so many people think so. In the past, he might be able to see through the enemy's tricks, but..."
Strong Bear also saw the report.
He couldn't blame Tai Lun, no one thought that the enemy commander Lin Qing was so wise, and no one thought that he would launch a counterattack.
"Is his name Lin Qing?" the president asked.
"I heard that he is a descendant of Luo Jianhuang."
"I'm glad he's a descendant of warriors."
Despite the destruction of the borders, the loss of public property was much less than what the Volga had done to the empire.
The empire's giant "693" army led by Lin Qing was very small, and only castles and fortresses were damaged, and cities and towns were not affected at all.
The Big Bear liked the cavalier attitude Lin Qing displayed.
I want to praise him, but... will the little fairies jump out?
In addition, according to intelligence, he is also very close to Princess Reina.
Even if Princess Reina has no political greed, but is known as a symbol of peace, they have no intention of letting her go.
And even if this guy Lin Qing wants to be our enemy in the future, I don't have to worry too much. Since that martial artist family is notoriously short-lived, I believe this time is no exception.
In addition, recently, Ness went to Lin Qing Manor to inquire about battlefield information for him.
"Now, I need to keep an eye on him," Hill thought.
Hill decided to wait for reports from the dark elves accompanying her.
She had to figure out why Lin Qing was able to use Simon's black magic.
The main forces such as titans and warlocks were dispatched to fend off the enemy's attack, so it seems that there is no force south of the Volga that can stop Lin Qing's attack.
Lin Qing captured seven castles, he captured military camps and took their weapons and seals, he took gold coins and silver ingots from government officials and noble houses.
In the process, they did not touch the village, perhaps to gain popular support.
They will even pay more money to buy marching supplies from the peasants.
"The army of the Volga Republic destroyed the city of Crom and destroyed the northern territories of the empire."
"Yes?"
Erwin told Lin Qing the information, which was transferred to the communication wizard who stayed behind Yaohan.
Zhang Xun, Caper and other riders were stunned, but Lin Qing remained calm.
"Have they diverted their attention elsewhere? The army attacking the fortress has more targeted troops than the elite central army... But even so, it doesn't make sense."
"Yes, the Northern Army came very late."
There was a reason why the northern army was late to Fort Trot.
Earl Naiman was ordered to kill Lin Qing earlier this year, so the northern army did not respond to their request for reinforcements and they stopped communicating.
That's why there is no news of any possible attack on the Trot Fortress.
"If the Republic Army attacked from behind, the fortress would..."
Hearing Zhang Xun's concern, Lin Qing shook his head: "This is impossible. As far as I know, the northern part of the empire is the territory of the emperor. If he knows that the Republic Army is going crazy, he won't just sit around and wait for death."
The Republican Army is not a fool, they will not lose their city just to capture a small fortress.
Lin Qing knew that her fortress would not be attacked again.
"Anyway, it's obviously time to retreat," Lin Qing said.
Bell, who was poking around last night, captured some Republican scouts.
When they were interrogated, they stated that they were part of a reinforcement force sent to monitor Lin Qing's forces.
Although the elite titans led by Lin Qing did not sweep the high ground, they were still able to fight the enemy's huge support group with great enjoyment.
That's why Lin Qing withdrew without hesitation.
The next day, Lin Qing led the retreat from the Volga Republic.
The reinforcements had already rushed over, but they could only watch Lin Qing's troops cross the Three Rivers without doing anything.
"Shall we go to the river and attack them?"
Hearing the lieutenant's question, the reinforcement commander shook his head.
"No, our job is to drive them away, not destroy them.
The famous Tyronn also failed to win there.
Even if they win in this situation, I am afraid that the Republic Army will suffer a big loss.
In addition, they were ordered to stop further expansion.
If the capital was preparing for the triumph of Duke Dimitri, then even if they won, many people died would be a big problem.
Thanks to this, Lin Qing was able to return to his territory after infiltrating the Republic......
After returning to the fortress, Lin Qing ordered the knights who fought with him to rest, and others began to repair the fortress, and then Lin Qing went to the dungeon below the headquarters.
The dungeon contains a captured warlock who visited Lin Qing when he was building the dam.
cluck!
Rob was meditating, when he heard someone approaching him, he raised his head.
"You?" Rob asked.
"Huhu, how are you doing these days?" Lin Qing asked.
Noticing Lin Qing's Rob, frowned.
However, soon Rob's face turned pale, because the weird and powerful aura released by Lin Qing made him a little suffocated.
Warlocks are used to sensing the presence of magi and demons.
However, the energy he felt was not something that could be called a wizard at all.
'He artificially enhanced the magician? No, that's impossible, only our Darkmoon Tower can do it!' Rob thought.
He couldn't understand, so he yelled at Lin Qing: "Ahem! You, who are you?"
"I am Lin Qing, descendant of Warrior Luo."
"This, this is impossible, isn't it?"
"How can Luo's descendants use dark magic?"
"Why? Is there any law that stipulates that descendants of warriors cannot learn dark magic?" Lin Qing asked.
"That..."
"Also, do I look like an ordinary warlock to you?"
Hearing Lin Qing's question, Rob was speechless.
It is certain that his visitor is not an ordinary warlock. Normal warlocks do not know that demons can be contracted as slaves.
"Even if you want to, you can't help but believe it, but since I recognized your identity, you should be very clear that I need you to answer my question, and this is also true.
After speaking, Lin Qing immediately asked another question: "Who did you learn the black gun from?"
"Black Gun?" Rob asked.
"Yes, if you tell me who you learned your black gun from, I can let you go.
Rob shook his head resolutely: "Do you think I will say it?"
Rob didn't know if the comers were descendants of warriors, or were they covered in heavy armor and looked like warriors' demons.
However, he didn't mean to say Dark Moon.
If they knew of the existence of the Dark Moon, they would be attacked by their mainland citizens.
Hearing Rob's answer, Lin Qing nodded as if she had expected it. .
